Detective Conan: Knifeman? I'm a good citizen of Beihua

Chapter 28: New Cafe Arrives, a Fearsome Rival! (2)

Love Love Cafe is very popular.

In just one week, they attracted a large number of customers, and their fame gradually spread beyond Beika Town, and they are on the verge of becoming a popular online celebrity store.

The handsome young men and sweet maids in the store provide extremely high emotional value, attracting both men and women, and bringing the entire newly emerged coffee shop into the spotlight.

The store is bustling with people and is extremely lively. Even during the sleepy lunch break, it can receive a surge in orders, forcing some customers to wait at the door.

Behind the popularity of Love Love Café is the decline of Polo Café. The originally good business has been basically taken over by them. Except for some old customers who have developed habits, most of the customers who are originally mobile have chosen there.

after all--

This is a world where appearance matters!!!

Shirakawa Qiu sat in front of the window with a sad look on his face.

On the other side, Azusa Enomoto handed the packaged croissants and cookies to Ran Maoli, and asked casually with a smile: "Why didn't I see Mr. Maoli today?"

Mao Lilan was a little embarrassed. Not good at lying, she stammered: "My father, he, he——"

Conan said quickly: "Uncle got horny and went to drink coffee next door!"

"Conan!"

Mao Lilan looked at Enomoto Azusa a little embarrassedly: "I'm sorry, Miss Enomoto..."

Azusa Enomoto chuckled and gently said, "This has nothing to do with Xiaolan. The customer has the right to choose."

She looked at Baichuan Qiu, who was emitting a chilling aura, and said with worry in her voice, "It's the store manager..."

A big one and a small one also looked over.

The white-haired young man had his back to them, crouching in front of the window, scratching the glass with his fingers like an irritable white long-haired cat. His body trembled slightly from time to time, and a strange "hehehe" sound of laughter could be faintly heard.

"Kill, I'm going to kill them all~"

"Dare not to come to my cafe? Betray me? You must die too!"

"Hehehe, I'm going to chop all of you ungrateful people to death!"

"Damn it, damn it, damn it, all of them deserve to die, hehehe——"

Mao Lilan/Conan: "..."

The two of them couldn't help but shrink their necks and turn their heads.

I can't imagine that Mr. Shirakawa, who is usually gentle and polite, would have such a side to him.

"Mr. Shirakawa, how long has this been going on?" asked Ran Mouri cautiously.

Enomoto Azusa was clearly used to this. As he wiped the glass, he said, "Ever since the store next door opened, the manager has been experiencing this symptom from time to time."

Conan asked politely, not so politely: "Mr. Shirakawa, have you been to the hospital?"

Azusa Enomoto shrugged. "The manager said he's fine, he was just letting off some steam. Don't worry about him. Maybe he'll be back to normal after you leave."

Two people: "..."

It always feels a little abnormal!

Mao Lilan said weakly: "Is this really okay..."

Azusa Enomoto sighed, "It can't be helped. The store manager has been in a bad mood lately. He originally wanted to hire someone to compete with the other store, but when the potential applicants saw that we were next door to that store, they all thought we were going to go bankrupt sooner or later, so they didn't even come for the interview."

Two people: "Hiss... It's really miserable."

Conan was a little confused: "Why doesn't Mr. Shirakawa go and get someone over here himself? I think Mr. Shirakawa is also very handsome!"

That guy’s looks can easily beat the handsome guy next door!

Mao Lilan also nodded in agreement.

I have to say that Mr. Shirakawa is really good-looking, with delicate features, handsome face, and golden eyes that are gentle and holy. He is like a gentle saint who walked out of a Western fantasy comic, so stunning that people can't take their eyes off him.

Mr. Shirakawa is such a delight just sitting there. Why...

Azusa Enomoto sighed again: "This is what worries the store manager even more. He has also tried to use his appearance to attract customers, but - his presence is very low."

Mao Lilan/Conan: "Huh?"

"The store manager said he's been like this since he was a kid. He's obviously very good-looking, but aside from those who know him and are impressed by him, no one else pays much attention to him. Even if he's lost in a crowd, he doesn't stand out, as if his looks are sealed in another dimension."

Azusa Enomoto thought about it carefully and said an adjective: "This may be what anime calls the natural invisible person attribute."

Mao Lilan: "Is that so..." Mr. Shirakawa is so pitiful.

Conan: "Uh..." If that's the case, then there's really no way.

However, what they don’t know is that this is actually a natural criminal constitution.

Think about it, a guy with such a low presence will naturally not easily attract the attention of detectives or the police. Even if he appears at the scene of a murder, passers-by will not notice such a person with such a low presence.

Hidden in the crowd, like blending transparently into the night, without a trace.

With such a physique, committing a crime is simply divine help in this world where we all know there is no surveillance.

Unfortunately, Baichuan Qiu didn't really want to accept it.

He looked up at the sky, his eyes red and full of murderous intent.

"System, I hate it..."

The system remained positive: "Host, many tasks have been successfully refreshed. Do you want to choose one?"

Baichuan Qiu: "..."

He has no desire to live.

Because of the conflict created by the Love Love Cafe, a large number of mission targets have been refreshed densely on Baichuan Qiu's system panel, all of which are related to this matter. Now, whenever Baichuan Qiu looks up, he can see a "damn" mission target at random.

"Everywhere you look there are enemies" - this is something that Baichuan Qiu has experienced deeply.

"Host, host, what do you think of this?"

The system waved a mission target in front of Bai Chuanqiu: "This person used to come to our store frequently, but now he has directly betrayed us. We should punish him with death!"

Bai Chuanqiu rolled his eyes: "It's already this time, can you be quiet."

The system said aggrievedly: "Host, I also hope that you can be happier."

Baichuan Qiu squinted his eyes and smiled: "Hahaha, I'm very happy."

I'm so happy I want to die, thank you.

He closed his eyes and suppressed the urge to kill.

The system was still worried: "Continuously refreshing like this is not a solution..."

Perhaps because of the conflict, the task update was a natural process. If left alone, the system felt that the host could produce dozens more.

Baichuan Qiu held his forehead with his hand: "Let me think about it, let me think about it."

"Ms. Enomoto, we'll be leaving now."

Mao Lilan's voice came from the side.

Baichuan Qiu opened his eyes, and a fierce look flashed in his faintly scarlet eyes, and then quickly disappeared.

He suddenly raised the corners of his mouth.

"I think I should have a solution."

Baichuan Qiu murmured.

System: “Huh?”

Ran Mouri said goodbye to Azusa Enomoto, and then prepared to leave with Conan. Suddenly, a figure flashed before her eyes.

"Huh?" Mao Lilan was startled. She looked carefully and found that it was Shirakawa Akane.

The white-haired young man had a hint of red at the corners of his eyes, his eyes full of earnestness. He put his hands together and begged Mao Lilan very solemnly: "Please, Xiaolan! Please help me!"

Mao Lilan's eyes were wide: "Huh?"

"And Conan—"

Baichuan Qiu squatted down and took Conan's hand seriously. Conan was stunned by this person's sincere look: "Ah?"

"This matter involves the survival of our store. Please help me!"
