Conan: I'm just an ordinary novelist

The two guys didn't care about their image at all and laughed so hard that they fell over.

The passers-by who were secretly doing something fell silent for a moment and turned their heads around, pretending not to see anything.

Yun Xianhe stood up straight and pointed his mouth towards the distance:

"See, as long as I look like a psychopath, the rumors won't exist."

Kidd, who was still laughing, choked because of Yun Xianhe's words.

He cleared his throat, adjusted the brim of his hat, and muttered:

"You always have a unique way of praising yourself."

"Thank you. I also like the way I praise myself."

Kidd curled his lips when he heard this.

He tugged at the other's arm loosely while looking around.

It is about ten o'clock in the evening.

Nightlife has just begun.

Warm colored lights are hung on the empty tree branches on both sides of the street.

The branches fully decorated soften the chill of winter.

Kidd pulled Yun Xianhe's arm:

"There are crepes over there, do you want some?"

"eat!"

So the journey home, which was supposed to be a straight line, started to become winding.

The brave man, holding a crepe in one hand and milk tea in the other, squinted his eyes and looked very happy.

Kidd, who was standing by, took a big bite of chocolate ice cream and was so cold that he shivered.

Yun Xianhe laughed unceremoniously upon seeing this:

"You'll get a headache if you eat that much at once, right?"

"It's okay, it's okay. You should be careful when eating so many cold foods."

The brave man shook the iced milk tea in his hand and laughed:

"When you go out to eat, of course you have to choose what you like."

"That's right. Why don't you take a look around before you go back?"

Upon hearing this proposal, the brave man waved his hand casually:

"Come on! It's my treat! Just consider it a return gift for your birthday present."

"So you won't give me a present on my birthday?"

"It's not a big problem. You can just invite them back when the time comes."

Yun Xianhe waved his hand nonchalantly.

Because he was holding a milk tea straw in his mouth, his voice was a little unclear.

Hearing what he said, Kidd laughed:

"Then I'll have to eat it well!"

"How about we go have a barbecue?"

"Now? You should have just come back from a dinner party?"

Although it was a question, Kidd's tone was still quite firm.

Yun Xianhe looked around himself.

There was no vegetable soup, no gift wrapping strips left, and nothing extra.

"Indeed, but that was around 7 o'clock. How did you guess that?"

"When we first met, you had that unique party vibe about you."

"Hey? What's that smell?"

Kidd frowned and thought for a while when asked.

"It's hard to describe. Like red wine, western food... and some desserts? The most important thing is that you looked very happy and relaxed at the time. Did you have dinner with someone you were close to?"

Hearing this, Yun Xianhe couldn't help but curl the corners of his lips:

"Yes, they are a group of guys with very good relationships."

"It seems that the little detectives haven't reached that level yet."

"Well - after all, these guys who I have a good relationship with have taken bullets and cannons for me. They can also test poisons, double, block knives, play corpses, and even come whenever I call."

We live and die together.

This long string of information is a bit long.

Kidd was silent for two seconds, digested it, laughed dryly a few times, and said uncertainly:

"Your friends...are they pretty tough?"

"Pfft, hahahahaha! No no no, they're just simply hard."

Body made of state-of-the-art alloy.

Very durable!

Looking at the person who was laughing so happily, Kidd asked helplessly:

"Do you want to listen to what you just said?"

"Ah, my glasses are broken, I can't hear you."

"?"

Okay, okay, people with myopia use glasses to hear people talk, right?

Kidd really wanted to ask the other party whether he was nearsighted or hard of hearing.

The thief's eyes, hidden under the brim of his baseball cap, lightly swept across the hero's heterochromatic eyes, and then focused on the hair at the other's temples.

There seems to be a slightly unnatural curvature around the temples.

Is that the reason why he can accurately 'see' things even if he can't see?

"What are you daydreaming about? The ice cream is melting."

"Oops!"

"Pfft, it's really bad."

"Hey, stop making those weird puns!"

Kidd quickly moved the ice cream away from himself and looked at the melted water stains on the ground. For a moment, he was glad that his hands were quick.

Otherwise I will have to wash one more piece of clothing when I get home tonight.

Yun Xianhe took out two pieces of paper from his pocket and handed them to the other party, then took a big bite of the crepe.

The brave man with bulging cheeks listened aimlessly to the scanner reporting the situation on the street, feeling a little regretful that he could not see these scenes with his own eyes.

but……

Thanks to 01 and Kidd, he felt much better.

Don't drink too much...

The brave man thought so as he took another bite of the crepe.

"What are you thinking about?"

The Phantom Thief, who had finally dealt with the ice cream crisis, came over again and followed the other party to look across the street.

A small playground.

The brave man raised his hand and pointed, his tone very serious:

"I want that."

Following the direction of the other person's finger, Kidd saw a person wearing a teddy bear costume at the entrance of the amusement park.

And a bunch of balloons in the other person's hands.

The thief smiled maliciously:

"Does the brave man like balloons too?"

"I mean the bear."

"...?"

Kidd was stunned for a moment after hearing this answer, and then showed an indescribable expression.

He pointed at himself uncertainly, then pointed at the guy in puppet costume opposite him:

"You want me to get you this set of clothes? You want to wear them?"

"Kiddy, do you think that if everyone lived in doll costumes, would the world become like a fairy tale?"

The Phantom Thief Half Moon Eyes, who had won a new title, smiled and said quietly:

"Maybe it's a dark fairy tale..."

"Well, I want a balloon. To release the wishes I didn't make last night."

Hearing this, Kidd looked at Yun Xianhe seriously, and then snapped his fingers neatly.

A small notepad and ballpoint pen appeared in his hand.

After Kidd stuffed the two things into Yun Xianhe's hands, he winked at him:

"Perhaps, while you're waiting for the balloon to come over, you could write down your wish?"

"good idea."

"Wait here a moment."

Yun Xianhe, holding a notebook, looked at Kidd walking towards the zebra crossing and smiled unconsciously.

A few words were scribbled on the palm-sized notebook.

About the schedules of various gemstones, 'Qingzi' and 'Daddy'.

Yun Xianhe had no intention of prying into the other person's privacy, so he just took a quick look and didn't look any further.

He found a completely blank page, carefully wrote down his wish, then tore off the paper and folded it carefully in half.

Then he opened the notebook and started a new round of writing and drawing.
