Chapter 232

"That's why I specifically asked the people in the hotel..."

Before Suzuki Sonoko finished speaking, he heard a slightly hasty exclamation.

"what?!"

Conan immediately pricked up his ears, and leaned closer to the fat man who yelled that he was killed.

"But... I always feel like I've seen this waiter somewhere else..."

Mao Lilan's whispers were not heard by Suzuki Sonoko and others.

But because of Mao Lilan himself, he didn't remember where he had seen this waiter.

Mao Lilan did not bring up this topic again.

The fat uncle and another tall and thin middle-aged man talked about what they had just seen and heard with excitement and fear.

"Have you heard? There is a woman with brown hair who has suffered again."

Conan, who has always been interested in murder cases, concentrated on eavesdropping on the conversation between the two.

But Suzuki Sonoko, who was obsessed with her upcoming new relationship, didn't notice the conversation happening in the other corner of the hotel at all.

She was still talking about her own speculation with Dowaki Masahiko about the waiter who didn't have a good face.

"I think, this store should be the tile-roofed hotel where we live, is it the owner?"

"Sono, do you live at the Tile House Hotel?"

Michiwaki Masahiko asked in pretended surprise when he heard Suzuki Sonoko's words.

"Is that close to where I live?"

"Well, let's go to a nice restaurant by the sea tonight, how about?"

Michiwaki Masahiko pretended to be on a whim, and proposed enthusiastically.

"At that time, I will drive to pick you up."

"Eh, is that so?"

Suzuki Sonoko glanced at Mao Lilan with some embarrassment. Although she wanted to immediately agree to Masahiko Michiwaki's invitation, she couldn't make a decision for Mao Lilan privately after all.

"I just asked the locals here..."

Masahiko Mowaki seemed hesitant when he saw Mao Lilan, so he told Suzuki Sonoko and Mao Lilan the rumors he had heard before.

That is to say, the ghost of a woman with brown hair who was once killed by him is rumored to be lingering in the restaurant they are going to tonight.

"Okay, so scary..."

Suzuki Sonoko and Mao Lilan, two girls who are afraid of ghosts, leaned close together, drawing a sense of security from each other.

"It is said that if you take a photo in the restaurant where the brown-haired woman died, her ghost will be photographed in the photo."

Michiwaki Masahiko lowered his voice to deliberately exaggerate the terrifying atmosphere, and slowly told about his fabricated rumors.

"So, if you still have negatives for your cameras, why don't we try them out tonight?"

"what?"

Suzuki Sonoko is a typical person who is addicted to counseling.

"As for the negatives, except for the photo we took before, we still have about ten more."

At this time, although Suzuki Sonoko was terrified by what Michiwaki Masahiko said about ghosts.

But Suzuki Sonoko was still aroused by the rumors that Michiwaki Masahiko said.

But what no one noticed was that,

"Xiaolan, do you want us to go to that restaurant with Michiwaki-san tonight?"

"Sonoko..." Michiwaki Masahiko was about to talk to Suzuki Sonoko when he was rudely interrupted by Kyogoku who came to deliver the food with a tray.

"boom--!"

Kyogoku slammed the tray in his hand onto the dining table in front of Suzuki Sonoko and the others.

"You guys have been waiting for a long time, the fried noodles are ready."

"Uh……"

Everyone looked at this waiter with a bad attitude repeatedly in astonishment, wondering how they offended this waiter for a moment.

"Would you please eat as soon as possible?"

Makoto Kyogoku reminded in a cold voice, "There are still many customers waiting for a seat in the store."

After saying that, Kyogoku put away the tray again, and walked away without looking back.

"The waiter's attitude is too bad, isn't it?"

Michiwaki Masahiko asked in amazement, "Did we offend him somewhere?"

Brandy got tired of lying on the beach, so he dragged Ju Liang to Shuijia, asking for a cold beer.

With Tachibana as a shield, brandy can be drunk as much as it wants.

As soon as he entered the lobby, Tachibana heard Masahiko Michiwaki complaining.

Tachibana couldn't help laughing, Suzuki Sonoko and the others didn't offend Kyogoku, but well, you don't have to.

……

"Ouch!"

Meanwhile, on the other side of the restaurant.

At the beginning, the short and fat man who said that someone had been killed, saw that his companion refused to believe his words, so he couldn't help feeling a little anxious.

"it is true!"

"Another tawny-haired woman has been killed."

The chunky man reiterated loudly, "It's in the woods not far from the railway line. If you don't believe me, go and have a look. The police probably have already arrived."

Conan, who had been eavesdropping on the conversation between the chunky man and his companion, heard the place where the body was found, and immediately got up from his seat and ran towards the crime scene.

"what?"

Mao Lilan, who was still greeting Tachibana and Brandy, heard the movement, and turned around to check the situation in doubt.

Mao Lilan saw Conan's back running towards the woods not far away, "Conan? Are you going?"

"Sister Xiaolan, someone died in the woods, I'll go and have a look."

After Conan left a word, he got into the woods without looking back, and went to the scene of the crime.

"Conan..."

When Mao Lilan heard this sentence, she immediately remembered Tachibana Liang's last night, saying that Conan might have delusional disorder that imagined himself as Kudo Shinichi.

Mao Lilan felt a little uneasy when she thought of this, she didn't have time to stand up and talk to Suzuki Sonoko and the others, she chased Conan's almost disappearing figure into the woods.

"Huh? Xiaolan?"

Suzuki Sonoko, who was left on the spot by Mao Lilan, looked at Mao Lilan's disappearing figure in a daze, and said the second half of the sentence weakly, "Where are you going..."

"I think Miss Xiaolan seems to be..." Masahiko Michiwaki saw that Sonoko Suzuki was left alone, his eyes lit up instantly.

This is a great opportunity to get from Suzuki Sonoko the photo that was taken by Suzuki Sonoko last night when he committed the crime.

"Mr. Michiwaki," Suzuki Sonoko stood up abruptly, and slapped the table with a slap, "Then let's hurry up and see what happened, shall we?"

"Uh, shall we go there too?"

Michiwaki Masahiko hesitated, Suzuki Sonoko was on the order at this time, this is a rare good opportunity to make a move, he wanted to dispel Suzuki Sonoko's idea.

However, Suzuki Sonoko didn't answer his question at all. She, who was concerned about Mao Lilan's safety, got up and left when Michiwaki Masahiko was still hesitating, planning to catch up with Xiaolan by herself.
