"And it's not nice to judge others like that!"

"I know, but Xiaolan and I are also friends! No, I'm friends with that fake Xiaolan. I still like that girl quite a bit."

Binga started chattering incessantly, and his attack was as fierce as a tiger, making Amuro Toru's mind go mad.

Now Toru Amuro has completely forgotten why he came to the Mori Detective Agency.

"Alas, there will be one less neighbor to go shopping and cook delicious food with."

Binga sighed, walked to the door and waved to Bourbon, "Bye, Mr. Amuro, let's go for a walk in the mountains together next time, maybe we can dig up another body."

"Corpse? What corpse?" When Amuro Toru heard the word "corpse", his mind immediately became clear and the chattering disappeared from his ears.

"Don't you know? Kurosawa and I went to the mountain to dig soil and dug out three bodies," Binga leaned close to Amuro Toru and whispered in his ear, "One of the bodies is Kudo Shinichi, Mr. Kudo's son. One of the other two bodies is a foreign woman, and the other is unidentified."

"The police suspect that he is a child kidnapper. Kudo Shinichi was kidnapped ten years ago. The current Kudo Shinichi is a fake."

After hearing all these true and false things coming out, Toru Amuro's brain became a mess again. He stopped in time and prevented the other party from continuing.

"Okay, Ms. Kurokawa, we'll talk some more sometime. It's getting late, and you should eat."

After saying that, Toru Amuro ran away in two steps, sat in his car, put on some music, and only then did he feel his mind clear.

"Hey, Ms. Kurokawa is really good at chatting. I didn't expect something like this to happen during this period of time."

"If Kudo Shinichi was a fake ten years ago, then who is this child now?"

"As a detective, didn't Mr. Kudo realize that his son had been replaced?"

Toru Amuro thought about it, started the car and decided to find Yuya Kazami to ask him clearly why things had become so mysterious during this period of time.

......

Suzuki Manor.

Yuanzi was lying on the bed, waiting for Xiaolan's call, thinking that since she didn't contact her before because of her identity, she should call now to explain what had happened during this period!

They are friends after all.

Then she has been waiting since the end of the banquet, but until now she has not received a call from Xiaolan.

Boom boom boom!

There was a knock on the door.

"Enter."

Yuanzi sat up from the bed and saw her mother pushing the door open with a worried look on her face.

"Mom, what do you want from me?"

"I'm a little worried about you. Since you came back, you've locked yourself in your room for a whole day and haven't eaten a single bite. Are you going to go to class tomorrow?"

Mrs. Suzuki put a fine meal on the table and urged, "No matter what happens, you have to eat something and take care of your body!"

"Well," Suzuki Sonoko got out of bed and walked to the table. She looked at the exquisite meal but had no appetite at all. She only drank a few sips of soup. "Mom, please ask for a few days off for me! I don't want to go to school."

"Is it because of Xiaolan?" Mrs. Suzuki saw the root cause of her daughter's unhappiness.

"Well, even though that guy is fake, she really treats me as her best friend. My English is not good, but she takes me to watch foreign movies to make me interested in English. She also accompanies me shopping and makes me happy when I encounter difficulties. We set goals together and agreed to go abroad together after graduating from high school..."

"But it's true that Xiaolan hasn't called me since she came back."

"I began to doubt our friendship. Was it all my wishful thinking? It was just because I was used to it that I thought Xiaolan and I were best friends."

"In Xiaolan's heart, I am just one of her friends. She is very nice to Kazuha, Sera, and others."

"Yesterday, when Xiaolan brought Conan to my room and doubted me, I felt that our friendship of more than ten years was a little fake."

"Mom, I'm so sad. And that girl, I still don't know her name. I don't know if she's dead or alive..."

As Yuanzi spoke, she burst into tears, as if she wanted to vent all her grievances.

"Sonoko, I used to have my own friends, but after graduation, we never contacted each other again. I became Mrs. Suzuki and she became a housewife. Even if we met, we had nothing in common."

"We are people from two completely different worlds. Now, I am a businessman first, and I will support you in everything that is beneficial to you."

"Whether your friend is Xiaolan or a girl pretending to be Xiaolan, they are all temporary to you unless they can stand on the same level as the Suzuki Group."

“Good friends cannot be lifelong friends just by one person’s efforts.”

"How do you know that somewhere else you don't know, the other party is not working hard for the promise!"

Mrs. Suzuki, who is a businesswoman, could tell at a glance that the girl pretending to be Xiaolan's manner of conversation and temperament were not something an ordinary family could cultivate.

Especially those skills that can take people's lives with every move.

It takes a lot of money and resources to train such a person.

She was against Yuanzi's relationship with a girl with such a complicated background, as such people often had deeper interests behind them.

When the Suzuki Group was handed over to Sonoko, what was needed was not a friend like Xiaolan who asked Sonoko for help, but a friend who had the ability to help Sonoko.

Whether it's sincere or not is not important.

What’s important is being able to accomplish each other.

Often the bundling of interests is the most reliable.

"Okay, okay, don't cry. At worst I can use my connections to help you find it!"

Mrs. Suzuki was helpless. Her head hurt because of Sonoko's crying. She didn't know if Sonoko had listened to all she said.

"Mom, you're the best." Yuanzi's crying stopped abruptly. She felt better and had an appetite. She ate all the food on the table.

"Do you want to take another leave?" asked Mrs. Suzuki.

"Well, I don't know how to face Xiaolan for now. I regard her as my best friend from the bottom of my heart, but Shinichi will always be more important than me."

"Besides, I told her to find a hospital to repair her scars, but she hasn't even called me yet."

I get angry when I think about this. I remember that I was the one who went to find Xiaolan, called her, and asked her to go out and play with me and attend various parties.

In fact, deep down, she hopes to be friends with Xiaolan for life, so that she can meet more people from this class and find a good boyfriend, which is better than Kudo Shinichi who has been missing for who knows how long.

But now I realize that it seems that all this was just her idea, not what Xiaolan wanted.

Thinking of that guy, taking her to eat luxurious food, attend banquets, and giving her beautiful jewelry, her eyes sparkled, and she would also find opportunities to give him unique gifts in return.

There is a feeling of being needed and unique.

At this time, Liqueur was sorting out the various jewelry given to her by Suzuki Sonoko in her own safe house.
