Conan World: Break Free from Fate and Run to You

"Only eat half of it. Don't swallow it whole." Amuro Toru handed the strawberry smoothie to Bai Zhi. Seeing Bai Zhi's shining eyes, he gently reminded her, "It's not hot enough now. Be careful of stomachache."

"I won't get sick." Bai Zhi protested, but still obediently did not stuff the entire bowl of smoothie into her mouth, but took a small sip with a spoon.

"You have to be a little careful though. It might affect your control over energy. What if you get a fever again?" Amuro Toru sighed.

But Bai Zhi suddenly stopped, still holding the spoon in her mouth, and looked around blankly.

"What's wrong?" Amuro Toru was puzzled. They were standing at the door of the cafe, so there shouldn't be any changes.

"Nothing, maybe the plot is about to start." Bai Zhi scooped another spoonful of smoothie and sniffed: "It tastes weird."

Strange taste? And what is the plot?

Toru Amuro felt a little strange, but didn't take it to heart. Azusa Enomoto was still waiting for his lettuce, so he simply took Baizhi back to the store and told her not to run around.

Bai Zhi nodded and agreed obediently, but she just sat down and hadn't taken two bites when she couldn't stand it anymore.

Who can stand being stared at by a pair of eyes while eating? The delicious food will taste bad. Even if she is pretty, she shouldn’t be stared at like that!

Bai Zhi raised her head and met Conan's inquiring gaze, and the two of them stared at each other.

Bai Zhi: “(╬◣w◢)…”

Conan: "(?＿?；) Uh..."

Bai Zhi: "(▼皿▼#)..."

Conan: "(＃－.－) Uh uh..."

In the end, magic defeated magic. Conan couldn't stand Baizhi's stare, so he looked away uncomfortably and drank the juice in front of him awkwardly.

"Humph." Bai Zhi grinned complacently and continued to taste the strawberry smoothie.

"Oh, oh, sorry, I'm late." The door was opened, and Dr. Agasa rushed over breathlessly, holding a detective badge in his hand: "Yuanta, your detective badge fell into the gap behind the TV."

"Ah? That should be when you were playing hide-and-seek yesterday. Genta was hiding there and accidentally fell down." Conan recalled.

As a result, the TV couldn't hide Yuantai's size at all, and he was the first one to be pulled out.

“Hehehe.” Yuan Tai smiled embarrassedly and put away the detective badge: “But, it’s almost lunch time, what are we going to eat for lunch.”

"There are still two hours, Yuanta." Mitsuhiko was speechless.

Baizhi on the side finally jumped down from her seat, and Conan's attention was immediately drawn to her.

Baizhi came to the counter with the strawberry smoothie in her hand. She didn't make a fuss and lined up obediently behind the customer who was paying. Only after the customer left did Baizhi walk up and put the smoothie on the counter.

"I've finished half of it." Bai Zhi looked at the strawberry smoothie moving away from her reluctantly and sniffed.

"Don't be so reluctant, you can eat again tomorrow, but you can't eat so much at one time." Amuro Toru didn't know whether to laugh or cry. From Bai Zhi's eyes, one could really see how deep her foodie attribute was.

"I, I, I, I'm not reluctant to give it up. The taste is just so-so. I'll try something else tomorrow!" Bai Zhi said stubbornly.

But this time her mouth parted with her eyes again. Although she said she was not reluctant, her eyes wished they could bury themselves in the smoothie.

"It's okay, let's try it next time..." Amuro Toru had no choice but to suggest taking Baizhi to eat something else next time.

"Ya ...

A scream split the sky.

Bai Zhi silently covered her ears, not surprised at all.

However, Toru Amuro and Conan were shocked, and Conan immediately rushed out like a rabbit that had broken free from its reins.

"Wait for me, don't run around!" Toru Amuro warned as he ran towards the direction of the voice, followed closely by the other members of the Junior Detective League.

Well, okay, this time it’s not someone from the organization who’s doing this.

Bai Zhi touched the crystal ball on her neck, and after confirming it, she jumped down from the high chair and walked slowly towards the door.

There were already a few people gathered at a distance diagonally opposite the door. From the sound, it seemed that the person shouting just now was a child. That place should be an abandoned shop that had been empty for many years. The plaque hanging on it was already worn and yellowed.

Baizhi looked around curiously. Fortunately, although there were many people in Beihua Town, there were few idle people. It was working time, so not many people came to watch.

The door was open. It was broad daylight, but the lights in the house were strangely on. A small area of ​​the dusty glass had been wiped clean. It seemed that someone was wondering what was going on in the house so they wiped the glass out of curiosity for easier observation.

There was a man's body in the room. He was neatly dressed in a well-fitting suit that looked expensive. There were no scars on his body, but his mouth was wide open, and he looked extremely painful.

"Dr. Agasa! Call the police!" Conan skillfully touched the carotid artery of the person on the ground, and sure enough, there was no sound, and it was obvious that he had been dead for some time.

This store seemed to have been unused for a long time. There was a thin layer of dust on the ground. Blurry footprints could be seen interlacing each other, as if two footprints overlapped each other, and the chaos continued until the place where the deceased fell. It seemed that the deceased had struggled before his death.

Toru Amuro observed the environment inside the house and looked at the window. The window was covered with a layer of dust and it was blurry even if he wiped it clean from the outside. It would probably be difficult to find a witness.

"Clap."

The light from the flashlight next to them caught the attention of Conan and Toru Amuro.

The slender white little hands pried open the dead person's eyeballs with one hand, and waved the flashlight with the other hand. Then she turned off the phone, slowly rubbed the dead person's face and lips, touched the dead person's neck, and finally shook hands with the dead person.

Conan: "?"

Is this some mysterious ritual?

"Azhi? Didn't I tell you to wait?" Amuro Toru was frightened and quickly pulled Baizhi up.

He looked at Bai Zhi in disbelief as she kneaded the dead body like dough. He might have thought she was kneading mud!

"I'm bored by myself, I don't want to be alone." Bai Zhi snorted twice: "I don't care, you have to be responsible if you sleep with me."

Conan: "(?Д?)?Ah!?"

"(ノ=Д=)ノ┻━┻What are you talking about!" Amuro Toru staggered, pinched Bai Zhi's cheeks and pulled them apart: "Don't say such weird things, I didn't do anything, why are you saying it's so weird!"

“Mmmmm~Mmmmm~” (I’m just telling the truth, I was wrong) Bai Zhi fluttered her hands in surrender.

"Really? Don't scare you. Go outside." Amuro Toru had a headache and tapped Bai Zhi's forehead lightly: "This is a crime scene."

"I'm here to help. I told you that I used to be the eyes and ears of the Dali Temple Shaoqing... uh, a famous detective of a senior judge." Bai Zhi had just said a few words when she realized that Amuro Toru probably didn't know what the Dali Temple Shaoqing was, so she had to make an analogy.

"I can be your assistant. I'm really good." Bai Zhi tilted her head and assured, "I used to be the assistant to the vice president of the Supreme Court. Now I'm your assistant, so you are roughly equivalent to the vice president of the Supreme Court... Uh-huh!"

"Stop talking nonsense..." Amuro Toru gritted his teeth and covered Bai Zhi's mouth to stop her from talking nonsense in public.

Can this be approximated? Equivalent substitution, right? Good substitution, don't do it next time!
