Conan's Almighty Extraction

Chapter 122 The Burning Villa

After dinner, Uchida Asami took Xiaolan to the kitchen to prepare desserts for everyone, while Shiraiwa Maha and others sat in the living room and chatted.

As a member of the reasoning club, everyone is very interested in the deeds of the famous detective Mori Kogoro, so the lively Sonoko turns into a storyteller, telling the story of some cases she knows after a little bit of processing.

After listening to Mori Kogoro's process of "solving the case", Sawai Gaku, with a cigarette in his mouth, said in admiration: "The famous detective is really different. He fully knows how to use words to achieve the effect of controlling people's hearts."

Tomoko Hayasaka, who was sitting next to him, laughed and joked, "Sawai, why do I think this kind of evaluation is the most suitable for you? Our playboy Sawai classmate."

"That's right, President, we've all heard that you just recently made a first-year girl cry." Shibahisa Noguchi, who had slightly darker skin, showed a look of fun, and added winkingly, as if Some gloat.

"Huh? Is this true?" Miyazaki Chinatsu, who was sitting next to Noguchi Shibahisa, looked at the slightly embarrassed Sawai Gaku in surprise.

Sawai Gaku glanced in the direction of the kitchen calmly, and changed the subject with some guilt: "Please, I'm going to help Mami celebrate her birthday today, what do you mean by cutting me like this?"

"That's right, let's let our playboy go today."

Tomoko Hayasaka helped Sawai learn to smooth things over, and at the same time said a little enviously: "By the way, the mystery novel written by Mami also won the Newcomer Award. Let's take this opportunity to celebrate together."

Sawai Gaku nodded, looked at the fat Morimoto Yoshiki who was sipping tea, and said with a regretful face: "Actually, Morimoto's novel has reached the level of participating in the finals, but he met Mami earlier."

Yoshinobu Morimoto didn't care much, and said with a smile: "Well, after all, Mami-senpai is the most anticipated talented new writer by editors, so it's nothing to lose to her."

"Everyone, there is a great writer here. I think you can ask him for some experience in writing."

After bringing up the topic of writing, Sonoko introduced Shiraiwa Maha's identity as a writer with a proud smile on his face.

"Wow, so you are that genius writer."

"Teacher Bai Yan, I like your "fate" series of novels the most."

"Teacher Bai Yan, when will your new volume of novel be released? I can't wait, please update."

After Shirayan Maha's identity was exposed, the atmosphere in the living room became heated. Unexpectedly, these people were all fans of Baiyan Maha.

"Hey, what are you talking about? It's so lively."

When Uchida Asami and Xiaolan came back with lemon pies, they were surprised to see Shiraiwa Maha surrounded in the middle.

Tomoko Hayasaka looked at Shiraiwa Maha adoringly, and explained: "Mami, do you know? Teacher Baiyan is the author of the "fate" series of novels!"

"Ah!" Uchida Asami also exclaimed when she heard the words, but she was not as excited as the others. After putting the lemon pie on the coffee table, she joined the discussion of the topic.

Sawai Gaku was a bit apprehensive about Uchida Asami's reaction, and was about to end the topic, pointing to the lemon pie and asked, "Mami, did you make this? Why is there something wrong with the color?"

"No, I made it." Xiao Lan spoke out first, and said a little embarrassedly: "It's my first time making lemon pie, so I didn't control the temperature well."

Yoshinobu Morimoto looked at the poorly dressed Lemon Pie, turned to Asami Uchida and asked, "Then Mami, what did you do?"

"Actually, I completely forgot to bring the lemon pie, so I asked Xiaolan to make a new one with me."

Uchida Asami shook her head, gave Xiaolan an encouraging look, and then urged with a smile: "You guys should try it first, maybe it tastes good."

Everyone cut up the lemon pie, and each shared a large piece, but seeing the lemon pie in their hands, which was much darker than the normal lemon pie, Sakai Gaku and the others seemed a little hesitant.

Shiraiwa Maha didn't care too much, after all, Xiaolan's cooking standard is still good, even if there were some mistakes in the first cooking, could it still be worse than Feiyingli's dark dishes?

Seeing that the others didn't move, Bai Yanzhenyu took a bite first, then his eyes lit up, he gave a thumbs up and praised: "Although it's a bit burnt, the taste is surprisingly good."

"Really, it tastes pretty good!"

"It's true, it doesn't look like much, but it's really good!"

After hearing Shiraiwa Maha's comments, other people also started to taste it, and after tasting it, they were full of praise for Xiaolan's lemon pie.

Asami Uchida smiled and waggled her fingers, and said to Xiaolan: "Look, what matters in cooking is the content, not the appearance. If you don't eat, you won't know the taste."

"Yeah." Xiao Lan was also very happy when her cooking was recognized by everyone.

After eating the lemon pie, everyone continued to chat in the living room. When it was almost twelve o'clock, Tomoko Hayasaka took out the birthday cake she specially ordered from Ginza, and put candles representing her age on it.

Xiaolan looked at Tomoko Hayasaka who was lighting the candles, and said enviously, "Every time I light candles on a birthday cake, no matter how old I am, I'm so excited."

"This kind of thing can only be said until the age of 20..."

Tomoko Hayasaka said with emotion, "Once you are over 20 years old, you only need to add one candle every year, and you will hate it to death."

"Ahaha" Xiaolan didn't know how to answer, so she smiled awkwardly.

Soon, when the time reached twelve o'clock, the telephone and fax in the living room suddenly turned on, printing out a letter of congratulations from Masao Komura, a professor at Toto University.

"Sure enough, it's exactly as promised, and it arrived on time at twelve o'clock, Mami, a fax from Mr. Takamura."

When Miyazaki Chinatsu received the fax and was about to hand it to Uchida Asami, she found that she was lying on the sofa and fell asleep.

"No way." Tomoko Hayasaka put the candle-lit cake on the table and asked softly, "Then what about this cake? Also, don't we all have to go to the karaoke in front of the station later?"

Sawai Gaku took a look at Asami Uchida, shook his head and said, "I can't help it. I'll cut the cake tomorrow. Let's go to karaoke to sing first."

Everyone didn't want to disturb Uchida Asami, so they agreed to Sakai Gaku's proposal, so Xiaolan took a blanket from the bedroom and gently covered Uchida Asami, and then everyone went to the karaoke in front of the station to sing.

After playing until after three o'clock at night, everyone prepared to go back to the villa to rest, but when they came out, they were shocked to find that the night sky in the distance was glowing red, and the villa where Asami Uchida lived was shrouded in raging flames.
