After going through the last mall incident, Conan and Natsume were strictly required to bring some spells written on April [-]st for a period of time, and April [-]st also seriously required them to return home before dusk, If you can't go back before dusk, go to the store as soon as possible and spend the night in the store.

Teacher Cat has also been asked to follow them recently.Although Mr. Cat said "It's so troublesome, who is going to protect these two brats", but he still dutifully followed between the two of them.

As for why April [-] puts so much emphasis on "twilight", both April [-] and Mr. Mao gave the same explanation - at dusk, when the devil meets.

Conan and Natsume haven't complained about such a day, but the children of the Detective Boys have begun to complain.

They were sitting in Paul's Cafe under the Maori Detective Agency, holding hot fresh juice in their hands, and delicious desserts in front of them, Yoshida Ayumi began to complain.

"Seriously, Conan, what have you been doing recently? You hurried back at dusk, or went to that place, and you didn't play football with us anymore."

"That's right, that's right, Conan, did you find any interesting case and don't tell us?" Tsuburaya Mitsuhiko was also dissatisfied.

"No, no, no, Conan must have discovered the delicious eel rice and didn't share it with us." Kojima Motota ate so much cream that his mouth was full, but he still didn't forget to complain about Conan.

"It's not what you think." Conan smiled awkwardly.He couldn't say that he went back so early because he was afraid of being attacked by some supernatural thing?It is better not to have the world view of this group of children hurt. Conan felt that although his world view had been broken, he should not harm these children.

Although, it is possible that this group of children would not believe what he said.

"Really, although it's a good thing to go home early, but Conan-kun, you've been a little strange recently." Amuro Toru, who was finally free at the side, took up the conversation.

"Why do you say that? Brother Amuro?" Conan pretended not to know what Toru Amuro was talking about.

Although he can be sure that Toru Amuro has absolutely no idea what he is doing recently, but for Toru Amuro, how should I put it, even if he knows that he is a member of the police, Conan feels that he still needs to be a little wary of Toru Amuro.

Just look at the weird atmosphere between him and Hideo Akai.

"Hey, Conan-kun, you didn't notice..." Toru Amuro approached Conan, and the shadow cast by the light just shrouded Conan.

He bent down, brought his face closer to Conan, and looked at Conan's stiff and nervous expression with satisfaction.

"Didn't you notice that you have been smelling of mint cigarettes lately?"

Got it!

Conan yelled in his heart that something was wrong.April [-]st smokes and loves to smoke mints in that gorgeous red bong.Although I have to admit that smoking on April [-]st is very pretentious, he, Lan, and Natsume, who were not used to it at first, naturally got some smell on their bodies because they often stayed in the store.Moreover, because they stayed there for a long time, none of Conan, Ran, and Natsume noticed this.

In addition, Conan has kept a distance from the detective team intentionally or unintentionally recently, and Haibara Ai knows where he usually goes. Coincidentally, no one reminded him.

"Not only that, Miss Lan also has this smell recently." Toru Amuro looked at Conan's gradually stiff face with satisfaction, "Can you tell me what you have been doing recently?" Although the tone was very gentle, there was a faint threat meaning.

"Speaking of which, Xiao Ai also had this smell last time."

"That's right, it was after we went to the shop where wishes could come true, but Xiao Ai didn't have that smell after that."

"So Conan has been going to that store recently?"

"It's very possible, and Conan, didn't you say you would tell us what happened last time? You haven't told us anything at all until now."

Before Conan had time to react, he found out that the members of the Detective Boys had completely cleaned up the store with each sentence.He frantically tried to stop it.But Haibara is not there, Conan can only watch Toru Amuro being interested by them.

"A store that grants wishes...it seems very interesting."

****

Toru Amuro let out a long sigh of relief, tapped the steering wheel lightly with his fingers, and quietly looked at a small shop not far away through the car window.

He heard from the little ghost heads of the Detective Boys that this is the shop where wishes can come true.I heard from the little ghost heads that only Conan and the girl named Haibara Ai can see this store.

Such a mysterious store can indeed arouse the curiosity of a detective, can't it?

What's more, if the wish comes true... Toru Amuro gritted his teeth, clutching the steering wheel tightly, his face full of unwillingness and anger.

If wishes come true...

Finally made up his mind to enter the shop, Toru Amuro wanted to see what was so mysterious about this mysterious shop owner, and he couldn't wait to lift the mysterious tulle.

Entering the store, he didn't see the owner, but saw two little girls playing there.

"Yeah, there are still guests today."

"Today's April [-]st is also very busy."

"That... I'm sorry..." Toru Amuro raised his hand, trying to stop the two little girls from fighting any further.

"I'm taking a bath on April [-]st." The pink little girl said with a smile.

"Guests, please come with us." The blue little girl pulled the pink little girl, turned her head and smiled at Amuro, and then started to run.

Toru Amuro, who was still confused about the situation, could only follow the two little girls to another room.The two little girls smiled and asked him to wait a moment. They were still taking a bath on April [-]st, and then served snacks and black tea, and then ran away to nowhere.

But... Toru Amuro rubbed his chin, listening to the two little girls, the owner of this shop is called April Yi.I don't know if this "April [-]st" is the shopkeeper's pseudonym, or if this is the surname of April [-]st. If it is really a surname, the surname "April [-]st" is not common.

Toru Amuro didn't wait long.

"Sorry for keeping you waiting."

When Toru Amuro saw the person in front of him, he, who was always calm, couldn't help but be extremely surprised, and wondered if the shopkeeper in front of him had been dropped.

No matter how you look at it, the person in front of you is only the age of a high school student, right? !The young shopkeeper in front of him still had hazy moisture on his body because he had just taken a shower.The ends of her hair were still dripping water, leaving several marks on her clothes.The owner of the store has a green face and very rare eyes of different colors, but they are blocked by glasses.Probably because he had just taken a shower, the owner was wearing a large and comfortable kimono.The kimono is very gorgeous, not only the color is noble purple and gold, but the butterfly pattern on it is also vivid, perhaps because the kimono is very large, which makes the owner's figure even more slender.

The shopkeeper didn't wear shoes, so when the shopkeeper came over just now, Toru Amuro didn't hear any footsteps, only the slight "rustling" sound of the large kimono being dragged on the ground.However, what surprised Toru Amuro the most was the too young face of the owner.Hearing the descriptions from members of the Detective Boys, Toru Amuro thought that even if the shopkeeper in front of him was not an old man, he should be a young man in his twenties. How could he have thought that it would be someone who looked like a high school student.

That being said, Toru Amuro couldn't be sure that the shopkeeper opposite was really that young.As far as Toru Amuro himself feels, although the shop owner has a young face, he does not have the vigor and vitality that young people should have at all. Instead, he is a kind of calm that belongs to the elderly, but does not have the sense of twilight of the elderly.

"I heard that people's wishes can be fulfilled here?" Toru Amuro crossed his legs, clasped his fists with his hands on his chin, and leaned forward. It was obvious that this shopkeeper really aroused his curiosity.

but……

Amuro looked around calmly, he didn't seem to see anything like a bong.And because the other party just took a shower, the smell of smoke on his body will also be washed off, covered by the aroma of body wash.In addition, the store seemed to be lit. Amuro Toru had been faintly smelling a very faint fragrance since he entered the door, but he couldn't find out where the fragrance came from.

Although Toru Amuro's movements faintly revealed a sense of threat, April [-]st acted as if he hadn't seen it, and took a sip of black tea gracefully and slowly, frowning slightly when the tea cooled down.

"Yes. I will fulfill any wish for you." He put down his teacup, looked at the other party and smiled slightly, the reflection of the lens made him look even more mysterious.

"As long as you can pay the corresponding price."

Toru Amuro didn't show it on his face, his thoughts had turned thousands of times.The price, what kind of price?Money, or something else?

"So, if my wish is to resurrect people, you can help me realize it?"

The shopkeeper on the opposite side paused for a moment, and then said, "In theory, that's the case. But..."

"If you want to resurrect someone, the price is very, very heavy. It is so heavy that even if you pay your soul, it is not enough to pay the price. From this point of view, it is impossible to resurrect someone..."

"So this wish can't be fulfilled?" Toru Amuro interrupted without waiting for the shopkeeper to finish.

"No, you seem to have misunderstood." April [-]'s expression remained unchanged, "It's not that this wish cannot be fulfilled, but that you can't afford the price of fulfilling this wish."

"So, it means that you have no way to realize this wish."

Toru Amuro gritted his teeth in the dark, is this looking down on him?

"However, it's really late now. If you don't mind, I'd better invite the guests to go back tonight. If you have any wishes, please invite the guests to come back tomorrow." Looking at the sky outside on April [-]st, he tactfully stepped down Eviction order.

"Now, April [-]st, why do you want to drive away the guests?"

"That's right, it's rude to drive away guests."

April [-]st kissed the foreheads of the two little girls, and shook his head lightly, "Because he didn't realize what his real wish was."

Looking at the direction in which Toru Amuro left, April [-]st said, "That man's wish is not to resurrect someone. It's..."

But he didn't talk about the key points.

"Okay, let's go to sleep."

Besides, is it really impossible to revive a person...
