Comprehensive Manga: The Master is not here today

Chapter 77 The first conversation and what was expected
Dengdeng!

The moment he saw Conan and his gang appear, the smile on Fujimaru Ritsuka's face froze, and the terrifying sound effects of the villain's appearance suddenly appeared in his ears, and four big words came to mind -

Death is coming!

"Haiyuan, why are you here?"

Conan was a little surprised to see Haihara Ai appear here.

But what surprised him even more was Fujimaru Ritsuka sitting opposite Haibara Ai.

Although detectives do not mean to have a photographic memory, the extraordinary skill Fujimaru Ritsuka showed when facing the criminal that day was so impressive that it would be difficult for people to forget it.

But, why does Hui Yuan Ai know each other?
And they even had dinner together, and they seemed to have a very good relationship?
Is it
When he thought of Haibara Ai's true identity, Conan's expression suddenly froze, and he looked at Fujimaru Ritsuka with a hint of scrutiny and exploration.

"It should be why you are here, right?"

Looking at Conan who greeted her, Haihara Ai's eyes were a little unkind, which made Conan stunned for a moment and confused for a moment.

Didn't you offend her?

"Conan-kun, are you your friend?"

"Don't run around, you brat."

At this time, Mao Lilan and Mao Li Kogoro followed.

After seeing Fujimaru Ritsuka, Mao Lilan said with some surprise:
"Ah, you are the girl who subdued the prisoner in the restaurant last time! I remember her name was Fujimaru, Fujimaru?"

Seeing this, Fujimaru Ritsuka could only say hello with a helpless smile:

"Hello, my name is Fujimaru Ritsuka, just call me Ritsuka."

Mao Lilan also showed a friendly smile and said hello:
"Hello, my name is Maori Lan, and this is my father, Maori Kogoro. Nice to meet you."

Then she looked at Haihara Ai again, and then asked Conan:

"Conan-kun, is this kid your classmate?"

"Um,"

Conan replied:
"She is Haihara Ai who is currently staying at the doctor's house."

After hearing this, Mao Lilan looked at Haiyuan Ai and said in surprise:

"So you are Xiao Ai! I have never had the chance to meet you before, but I didn't expect to see you here. What a coincidence."

"Hello."

Haiyuan Ai nodded to her gently, his tone was a little cold, and he didn't particularly care about the other party.

She is more concerned about another thing now——

"Suppressing prisoners in the restaurant?"

She looked at Fujimaru Ritsuka with a scrutinizing gaze, and her calm tone revealed a questioning tone.

This look looked very much like a parent who discovered that his or her child had done something wrong. Fujimaru Ritsuka scratched her head guiltily and said with a dry smile:

"You should know that this is the first of three times."

After saying this, Haibara Ai immediately recalled that Fujimaru Ritsuka had indeed told her that she had encountered such an incident three times, and the first time was when she was kidnapped by a murderer.

On the other side, Conan deduced from the conversation between the two that the girl named Fujimaru Ritsuka seemed to have suffered three similar incidents of being kidnapped, and the look in her eyes showed some sympathy for a while.

This guy is too unlucky, right?

After learning the identity of Haibara Ai, Mao Lilan looked at Fujimaru Ritsuka and asked her curiously:
"Are you, Ritsuka, also a relative of the doctor?"

"No, it's not,"

She waved her hands and smiled:
"I just happen to know Xiao Ai."

"That's it."

Mao Lilan nodded clearly, but Conan looked at Fujimaru Ritsuka with more and more doubts after hearing this.

"I said, can you eat first? I'm almost starving."

Mouri Kogoro obviously didn't care much about the conversation between several people. He rubbed his empty stomach with his right hand and complained weakly.

"Okay, okay, I understand, dad, can't you be more patient?"

Mao Lilan responded helplessly after hearing this, smiled sadly at Fujimaru Ritsuka and Haibara:

"Then Lixiang and Xiaoai, you eat slowly while we go find a seat first."

"Okay, bye." "Conan-kun, let's go. Don't keep disturbing others over there."

"Okay, right now!"

He responded loudly, but Conan had no intention of leaving with Mao Lilan and others.

He looked at Fujimaru Ritsuka, deliberately pretending to be innocent, and said cutely:

"Hey, Sister Ritsuka, can I have a little word with Haibara-san?"

Classic and cute!

Since we can no longer avoid each other, we can only enjoy it.

So she reached out her hand and rubbed Conan's little head very cooperatively, and said with a smile:
"Of course I have no problem, but the most important thing is to get Xiao Ai's consent, right?"

You are right, so is this the reason why you prostituted me for free?
Conan rolled his eyes in his heart, looked at Haiyuan Ai, and said with a pleading look:
"So, Haibara-san?"

"Humph."

Haiyuan Ai snorted in displeasure, but still chose to follow Conan and leave.

The two came to a remote corner of the restaurant, and Conan immediately asked Haihara Ai:

"What's going on with that girl named Fujimaru Ritsuka? Why does she know you? Is she a member of the black organization?"

Haiyuan Ai did not answer immediately, but crossed his arms and said:
"Before asking questions, you should answer the previous questions first, right?"

previous question?
Conan was stunned for a moment, and then quickly realized that Haibara should be complaining about the question he just asked why he was here.

Thinking of this, he suddenly had a black line.

I asked that question first, right? !

But he had no choice but to sigh helplessly and answered honestly:
"Because Xiaolan won a coupon for this store in the lottery, so we came over."

"Is that all right?"

Haiyuan Ai did not comment on this and just said:

"Nothing happened. I just met by chance. He is not a member of the black organization."

Except for the first answer that left him speechless, the second and third answers that followed made him frown slowly.

Accidental acquaintance, not a member of the organization, that is to say
"Is he an unrelated ordinary person?"

Conan's expression became serious and he asked her:
"Is this really okay? You should know best how dangerous our current situation is."

"If our identity is discovered by a black organization, there will be no doubt that the people around us will be implicated, so..."

Try not to involve other people.

Originally, he wanted to warn her like this, but Haihara Ai suddenly interrupted his words.

She replied indifferently:
"Only in this matter, you don't seem to be in a position to accuse me, Kudo."

"Sister Xiaolan next to you is also an unrelated ordinary person, right?"

"I"

Conan was speechless for a moment.

Indeed, as the other party said, he himself has not done this, and he has no position to accuse the other party.

"and also,"

Then, Haiyuan Ai left the last words and turned to leave——

"I know."

"Ugh."

Looking at Haiyuan Ai's leaving figure, Conan could only sigh helplessly, hoping that she would make the right choice on her own.

However, at this moment-

"Ah ah ah ah ah--!!!"

A sharp, piercing cry of terror pierced the harmonious atmosphere in the restaurant. Hearing such an abnormal sound, Conan was startled and ran towards the source of the sound.

A waitress hurriedly escaped from the backstage and shouted in horror:

"The chef is dead!!"
