Nagai Hikaru's Ke Xuexing

Chapter 177 Cafe Case

At noon, Hattori sent a message saying that he would come to Tokyo. They were about to arrive at the Mori Detective Agency.

Nagai Mitsuru looked at Karasuma Renya, who was in a very good mood and was about to go out to take a helicopter to leave, and he jogged a few steps and climbed onto the helicopter before Karasuma Renya.

"Have you thought it through and want to live with me?" Karasuma Renye asked in surprise.

"No, I just happen to be going to Tokyo. Shuichi can't drive now, and I don't like to specially transfer someone to be a driver." Nagai Mitsuru explained.

"What about when you come back later?"

"Such a large organization, can't you take the initiative to send someone to drive me back? You are so useless." Nagai Mitsuru clicked his tongue.

Karasuma Renya took a deep breath and told himself that his face was still happy.

Arriving at the Mori Detective Agency, Nagai Hikaru looked at the Poirot Café, carefully avoided the glass window at the door, and then went up the stairs to the office.

When he opened the door, Nagai Mitsuru saw Hattori Heiji and Toyama Kazuha who had just arrived.

"Ah, Hikaru, you're here." Hattori Heiji blinked, walked to Nagai Hikaru and lowered his voice, "I didn't ask you to come over."

"...I thought you told me you were coming to Tokyo because you wanted to meet me."

Hattori Heiji's eyes half-mooned: "I called you a few times before but you didn't come out. And have you been obsessed with kimonos recently? Isn't it too grand?"

On the other side, Toyama and Ye had already dragged Xiaolan to help prepare dinner in the kitchen. She turned around and said, "Heiji, Xiaoguang, Conan, go to the cafe downstairs and wait for us. When we are done, we will go out together to see the lights."

"Light scene?" Nagai Mitsuru was surprised.

"Ginza 4-chome has beautiful lights, so I came to take a look." Hattori Heiji turned his face away, "Don't ask me why I came here."

"Then Sister Xiaoguang, let's go to the cafe downstairs together." Conan said obediently.

Nagai Mitsuru hesitated: "Café... I'd better go to the kitchen to help."

"Xiao Guang, please leave Xiaolan's kitchen alone!" Conan hugged Nagai Hikaru's legs and said sincerely, "Whatever is going on between you and Mr. Amuro, please explain it clearly."

Nagai Hikaru pressed his forehead with a headache.

Conan said flatteringly: "The strawberry cake made by Amuro brother is very popular recently, Xiaoguang sister will consider it."

"Kudo, you look so disgusting." Hattori Heiji couldn't help but complain.

Conan glared at him: "Conan, stop yelling."

"Are you here on a date, Heiji? You came to Ginza specifically to see the lights." Nagai Mitsuru tried to change the subject.

"Don't try to use me as an excuse. Did you really have a fight with Mr. Amuro?" Hattori Heiji was a little surprised. "I thought he would go along with you in everything."

"How is that possible? I have to be a detective with a strong sense of justice." Nagai Hikaru's eyes drifted away, "Well, you should worry about your confession first. Today..." Nagai Hikaru took out his phone and checked the time, "Friday the 13th, how great."

"..."

Conan looked at Hattori Heiji, a little surprised: "You haven't confessed yet, what about the Nue incident last time? Didn't you find the time?"

"..." Hattori Heiji felt subtly that he was being ridiculed.

In the end, Nagai Hikaru was dragged to the Poirot Café by Hattori Heiji and Conan.

When Nagai Hikaru saw Amuro Toru, he smiled naturally and said, "Long time no see."

Amuro Toru nodded slightly and was about to speak.

Azusa Enomoto smiled happily and said, "Ah, Xiaoguang, I haven't been here for a long time. How is your guitar practice going?"

Nagai Hikaru smiled awkwardly: "After the guitar was burned, I..."

Azusa Enomoto gently covered her mouth: "Burned? Could it be that the house in Ichimachi was burned down by the fire..."

"Yes, it's my home." Nagai Mitsuru lowered his head slightly.

"I'm sorry, I..."

"It's okay, the house is insured, no one was injured, and actually my loss was not that big." Nagai Mitsuru explained gently.

Conan and Hattori Heiji had already sat down. Toru Amuro looked at the two people who were still chatting, then walked over to Conan to listen to their orders.

At this time, a college student with a backpack came in and said that he had reserved a seat. He put the bag on the chair at the dining table inside and went to the toilet.

Seeing that there were other people in the restaurant, Nagai Hikaru exchanged a few more words with Enomoto Azusa and walked to Hattori Heiji's side, about to sit down.

Amuro Toru came over and said, "Xiao Guang, I want to talk to you alone, is that ok?"

"Is there...is there something that can't be said here directly?" Nagai Mitsuru's face was nervous.

"No, I want to talk to you alone." Amuro Toru's eyes were serious, and Nagai Hikaru became even more nervous.

Hattori Heiji and Conan also looked at Nagai Hikaru awkwardly, hoping that he could resolve the matter properly.

Nagai Hikaru stood up, straightened the sleeves of his white kimono, and followed Amuro Toru in small steps to the outside of the Poirot Café, a little to the side of the glass window, next to the stairs of the Mori Detective Agency.

Toru Amuro turned to Nagai Hikari and was silent for a while. Nagai Hikari twisted his fingers together, lowered his head and did not speak.

"I don't hate you. I know what you are like." Amuro Toru sighed and touched his hair. "So don't worry. How could you have the courage to say that you can earn 50,000 a night when we first met? What's the point of hiding from me now?"

"I... I don't know." Nagai Mitsuru lowered his head, his voice trembling slightly, "Yeah, I'm not a good kid... whatever you think of me is justified."

"That's not what I'm talking about!" Amuro Toru said anxiously, "The first time you and I met, you wanted to kill someone. Later, you showed no mercy to Numabuchi's men and even set him on fire. So I never liked you because I thought you were a good girl."

"Ah?" Nagai Mitsuru looked up in surprise, with traces of tears in the corners of his eyes.

Amuro Toru's face turned red: "Ah, no, it's not that kind of love, it's just that I think you are very cute, like a younger sister, don't worry too much about it. Anyway, you don't have to worry about my opinion of you changing, so stop hiding from me, okay?"

"But..." Nagai Hikaru's face was still filled with shock and confusion, "Brother Toru, I... am a boy."

"Ah?" Amuro Toru's eyes widened for a moment.

"I'm a boy." Nagai Hikaru's face was still wet with tears, but he still raised his hand and pointed at his face, "I'm a boy, brother Toru didn't know this?"

"Eh?"

How should I put it? The current atmosphere is very subtle. It can be said that it has gone from a youth idol drama to a comedy sitcom in an instant.

At this time, three more people walked into the Poirot Cafe.

Nagai Hikaru took out a handkerchief and wiped his tears: "Brother Toru, do you want to go in? There are guests coming."

Amuro Toru supported himself on the wall with one hand: "Wait for me to sort it out... Are you a boy?"

"Yeah." Nagai Hikaru nodded seriously.

"Then why is that women's clothing?"

"It looks good. I've been wearing it like this since I was a child." Nagai Mitsuru said seriously.

Toru Amuro raised his other hand to cover the upper half of his face, his mind a little confused.

"Brother Toru was nice to me before, but it turns out it was because he thought I was a girl?" There was a hint of disappointment in Nagai Hikaru's voice.

"No. I'm thinking about other things now." Toru Amuro felt that he might have indeed misunderstood something, and his mind began to recall some previous scenes like a kaleidoscope.

At this moment, the lights in the Poirot Cafe suddenly dimmed and it became completely dark.

Amuro Toru was surprised: "What's going on inside?"

Nagai Mitsuru turned his head and looked back: "Did the circuit breaker trip? There is no power outage anywhere else."

Toru Amuro pressed Nagai Hikaru's shoulder seriously and said, "I'll go in and take a look at the situation and talk to you later." Then he walked into the cafe and soon the lights inside came on again.

Accompanied by a scream.

Nagai Hikaru adjusted the red camellia hairpin on her head, took out a small mirror to look at her face, and made sure she had no makeup on. Then she walked slowly into the coffee shop and said with some worry on her face, "What's wrong?"

Azusa Enomoto held up her phone and said, "I've called an ambulance and the police."

Nagai Mitsuru saw the large amount of orange juice on the ground and asked reflexively, "Did the drink spill?"

Everyone looked over in surprise.

Nagai Hikaru only then noticed the person lying at the feet of Conan and Hattori Heiji: "Ah..." He cried softly, then looked at the other people in the cafe, "No one went out or came in just now, so... the murderer is still inside."

Amuro Toru nodded: "The murderer is among you three."

The ambulance and Inspector Megure arrived very quickly.

When he saw the few people, Inspector Megure was only surprised that Hattori Heiji came: "It's rare, the victim is very lucky this time, he is only injured, his life is not in danger."

Takagi Wataru looked at Nagai Hikaru in surprise and said, "Does Nagai-san have any special plans today? You are dressed so formally."

Nagai Hikaru shook his head: "No, I just happened to wear it for fun today. Doesn't it look good?"

"No, no, it's very beautiful." Takagi Shigeru said with a smile, "It's just that this is the first time I see Nagai-san wearing a kimono, so I'm a little surprised."

Sato Miwako was still taking notes, but she turned around and said, "First time seeing you? Last time at the Water City Building, Nagai-san was also wearing a kimono."

"Suito Building?" Takagi Wataru touched his chin in confusion, "Is Nagai-san here too?"

"Yes, you ran out after notifying me, and when I chased you out, Nagai-san was there."

"I'll notify you?" Takagi Wataru was confused.

Conan hurried over and said, "Okay, okay, it's been a long time since the Water City Building. It's normal that you can't remember it. Let's take a look at this case first."

"Oh, right." Sato Miwako turned her head and looked at the three suspects. "So, someone was in the bathroom the whole time, right?"

"Yeah, I was in the bathroom the whole time. Does that count as an alibi?" a man raised his hand and said.

"There was a power outage at that time, so no one knew you came out," said Hattori Heiji.

Nagai Mitsuru didn't interrupt and sat obediently on the chair near the door, waiting for the detectives to solve the case.

He even picked up his phone and asked someone to drive over, saying that he would go back after solving the case.
