Kudo Shinichi was very shocked and asked: "What happened?"

"Alas~" Suzuki Sonoko exhaled and said, "I've been really unlucky these past few days, and I almost never saw you again a few times."

Mao Lilan took Suzuki Sonoko's hand, her face full of worry.

Suzuki Sonoko calmed down her emotions and said: "I don't know if I am possessed by a shinishin. Sometimes when I am walking well, a flower pot may fall on my head. When I am walking on the road, a car suddenly approaches me. It hit me and there was no one in the car, it was like a ghost driving."

Mao Lilan shuddered, Kudo Shinichi frowned, and Mingyue who was standing aside took out his mobile phone to check the news.

"The scariest thing is that I bought a box of biscuits and when I was about to eat them, a puppy ran over. I fed the biscuits in my hand to the dog. After eating, the dog started foaming at the mouth. At that time, I picked up the dog and went to the nearest pet hospital without thinking too much, but the dog could not be saved." Suzuki Sonoko lowered her head, her lips trembling slightly, "So my family thought someone was going to kill me..."

Kudo Shinichi asked: "Did you call the police?"

"I talked to the police. The police said it was all accidental and nothing was found. But accidents happen too often." Sonoko crossed her arms on her chest.

Mingyue nodded and said: "I checked on the Internet. There were several reports on the Internet about the incident of the flower pot falling. It was caused by strong winds a few days ago. The police have carefully investigated the incident of the car rushing into the pedestrians. They said that it happened on the slope. There was a car on the road that didn't have the handbrake on, causing it to slide down the road. No relevant information was found about the last incident. Do you still have the box of biscuits?"

Suzuki Sonoko shook her head and said: "The box of biscuits is gone. Because I was in a hurry to save the dog, the biscuits were placed on the park bench. When I went back to look for them, I could no longer find them. If it hadn't been for the previous accidents, Mr. Hanaoka was by my side and gave me a hand, and I..."

The man wearing black sunglasses spoke, "It is my duty to protect the second young lady."

"Thank you."

Kudo Shinichi thought for a while and said: "Sonoko, when you encounter these things, do you see who it is?"

Suzuki Sonoko shook her head and said: "I didn't see it, but once I seemed to see a woman's figure, and it just passed by. I also told the police, but no one was found."

Mingyue was very disapproving of Suzuki Sonoko's behavior of finding something wrong and running around, so she said, "Since so many things have happened, wouldn't it be safer for you to stay at home?"

"I can understand what you mean, Monáe, and my family also persuaded me in the same way, but I don't want to stay in the room and not go anywhere. Besides, only a thousand days can make a thief, and a thousand days can prevent a thief. And...and... I……"

Kudo Shinichi looked at Sonoko, who was a little embarrassed, and said, "You are looking for Xiaolan because you are actually quite scared, and you want us to help you find that person."

Sonoko nodded, "Yes, so I also want you to help me think of a solution. I brought a bodyguard with me this time. I don't want to bring disaster to you. Mr. Hanaoka is very powerful. He can save the day in any situation. It’s just...it’s just me..."

Suzuki Sonoko lowered her head, feeling a little uncomfortable, especially after nearly dying several times. Some of the words were very sad. She felt that she could not say them out, but they lingered in her heart.

And I want to see you again.

It’s just that I’m scared to death that I’ll never see you again.

Mao Lilan reached out to wipe away the tears from the corners of Sonoko's eyes, looked at Kudo Shinichi, and said, "Shinichi, Sonoko is our friend, and I will protect Sonoko no matter what."

Kudo Shinichi looked excited, "Of course, if we meet the prisoner, we can definitely catch her."

"Thank you." Suzuki Sonoko wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and looked at the two of them with a grateful face.

"My karate is amazing!"

Mao Lilan gestured aggressively, and Mingyue looked at it, and it was indeed a bit powerful.

"Xiaolan, you are the best!" Yuanzi hugged Mao Lilan.

Shinichi looked at Ming Yue and said with some uncertainty: "Ming Yue, you will help us."

"Uh...I may not be very good..." Mingyue looked at Mao Lilan.

Mao Lilan glanced at Mingyue's slender limbs and said with a smile: "When the time comes, just stand aside and I will knock down the prisoner with karate."

"Hmm, Xiaolan is very good, and my bodyguard is also very good. By the way, aren't we going to eat cake? Let's talk while walking. If you are late, you won't be able to buy the most delicious limited edition ones. Yes." A smile appeared on Suzuki Sonoko's face.

A group of people set out to eat cake. Mao Lilan and Kudo Shinichi walked very close, and Yuanzi walked side by side with Mingyue.

Yuanzi looked at Xiaolan next to him and said with a crooked eyebrow: "Monaë, look at that little couple, I watched them develop from kindergarten to now~"

Mingyue looked at Sonoko, tilted her head and said, "Oh? So Suzuki, you are also their cub?"

"That's right. Xiaolan likes that guy Kudo very much, but I don't know what Kudo thinks. Really, when you meet such a good girlfriend, you still don't confess your love." Suzuki Sonoko said with a look of displeasure.

Mingyue thought about it for a while and then told Suzuki Sonoko, "Kudo-kun should also like Mouri."

When Suzuki Sonoko heard Ming Yue say this, she became excited. She looked at Ming Yue and asked curiously: "Oh~ how did you tell that? That guy talks about Sherlock Holmes every day. If you don't know that he is just a character in a novel, , I thought the one named Holmes was Kudo’s girlfriend.”

Mingyue chuckled.

Yuanzi looked at Mingyue and said: "Monáe, you should smile more, you look good when you smile. And your long gray hair is also good-looking. I also want to grow long hair, but unfortunately I can't keep it long, and the color is still the same." Brown."

"Suzuki with the headband is cute too." Mingyue replied with a smile, thinking that the second lady of the consortium seemed to be very approachable.

Yuanzi lifted the hair around her ears with her fingers, looked at Mingyue's hair, looked at Xiaolan's hair, and then said: "Monaë, why do you braid your hair? Isn't it good to let it go like Xiaolan?" ? Doesn’t it look good with long flowing hair?”

"I'm not used to that." Actually, I'm just afraid that my hair will fall out during the task. After all, my hair has a special color and can be braided behind my head, making it easier to move around.

"Okay." Yuanzi agreed with Mingyue's statement.

Mingyue caught a glimpse of a figure at the entrance of the alley, but didn't say anything.

Suddenly Mao Lilan turned around and asked: "Yuanzi, the entrance exam will be in one month. How are you preparing?"

"Oh, you don't care whether you and your husband can be assigned to the same class, why do you care about me? In fact, I probably know it in my heart. It's too tiring to squeeze into the top class of Class A, and you may not be able to pass the exam. I should be able to pass into Class B."

Mao Lilan's eyes were full of worry and she said, "I'm afraid I won't perform well."

"Why are you worried so much? By the way, Monáe, which school are you attending now?" Yuanzi looked at Mingyue and asked.

"I didn't think about this when I first came here."

"If possible, go to Didan Middle School. Maybe we can still be in the same class." Suzuki Sonoko looked sincere.

Kudo Shinichi looked at Ming Yue and thought to himself: Haha, although I don’t know which school Ming Yue will go to or what her academic performance is, Ming Yue should have no problem coping with the exam, and there is a high probability that she will be graded A. It's a class. Yuanzi, there is no way you are in the same class as her.

Mingyue felt a little embarrassed and said, "Uh...actually I haven't thought about it that much."

"Didn't your parents help you think about it?" Suzuki Sonoko said with some confusion.

"Sonzi!" Kudo Shinichi quickly called out to Yuanzi. Mao Lilan quickly came over and covered Yuanzi's mouth, and pulled Yuanzi aside with a smile.

The two spoke to Suzuki Sonoko in a low voice.

Mingyue looked at the interaction between the three people and lost much interest. She took out her mobile phone and sent a text message.

In the shadow of the alley, the figure who had been following them hurriedly hid in the depths of the alley, but accidentally kicked a plastic bottle, making a slight sound.

Mingyue secretly glanced towards the alley. She was about to raise the corners of her mouth slightly, but she held it back.

Suzuki Sonoko came over with an apologetic look and said, "Sorry, I don't know."

Mingyue replied with a smile: "It's okay."

Suzuki Sonoko looked at Mingyue like this and felt a little uncomfortable in her heart. She felt that Mingyue always had a sense of alienation towards people. She didn't seem to be very eager to have friends, but this feeling made Sonoko feel that she wanted to know her more and wanted to go. Get close to her.

Maybe it was caused by the guilt of saying the wrong thing.

At this time, bodyguard Noburo Hanaoka said: "Second Miss, why don't we go back first?"

"What's wrong?" Suzuki Sonoko looked at the bodyguard in confusion.

Bodyguard Noburo Hanaoka looked a little nervous. He looked towards the alley and said, "We seem to be being followed."

Suzuki Sonoko frowned, then relaxed and said, "It's okay. When I encountered such dangerous things before, didn't you protect me well? I believe in your ability."

Bodyguard Noburo Hanaoka had beads of sweat on his forehead. He seemed nervous, but he still said, "I will protect you, Miss Second."

"Is your bodyguard reliable?" Kudo Shinichi looked at the nervous bodyguard in front of him, full of doubts.

Yuanzi also felt a little weird, but based on the situation where she had saved her before, she thought for a while and said: "He was not like this before. Maybe he only needed to protect me before, but this time there are many of us here, so he may be a little nervous. "

"Mr. Bodyguard, you only need to protect the garden. I don't need your protection. I am very powerful." Mao Lilan looked at the bodyguard Noburo Hanaoka and said confidently.

Kudo Shinichi looked around and asked, "Can you see clearly who is following us?"

Bodyguard Noburo Hanaoka shook his head and said, "I can't see clearly, but judging from the figure, she is a woman."

Kudo Shinichi was shocked. He was followed not long after he left home. Who was he following?

Is it the woman Yuanzi saw before? Could it be that that woman has been following Yuanzi? Then why were they discovered, or were they following us from the moment we left home? If that's the case, could it be Sister Green? Although I think Sister Gelin is a bit strange, Mingyue also said that she was careful about Gelin, but could it be her?

The atmosphere became tense for a moment. Suzuki Sonoko frowned and said, "Why don't I go home, in case you are affected by me..." Sonoko bit her lip and started to get nervous.

"Sonoko, didn't you come to us just to ask us to help you solve this problem? Now that it has appeared, we must catch the culprit." Kudo Shinichi's detective soul was burning brightly, and his eyes were full of excitement.

The corners of Mingyue's mouth raised slightly.

Kudo Shinichi looked at Ming Yue with bright eyes. When he noticed that the corners of Ming Yue's mouth were raised, he asked, "Ming Yue, did you find anything?"

Mingyue spread her hands, indicating that she found nothing.

Kudo Shinichi was a little suspicious, but he didn't find anything. How could he expect Mingyue to find anything? I really must have thought too much.

Suddenly, the phone in Mingyue's hand lit up, and a text message came, "Sorry, I need to reply to the message first."

Although Kudo Shinichi was curious about who sent the text message to Mingyue, he did not ask. Instead, he looked around, trying to find some information.

"Xiaolan, I'm a little scared." Suzuki Sonoko grabbed Mao Lilan's arm.

"I will protect you, don't worry." Mao Lilan replied with firm eyes.

Mingyue looked at Kudo Shinichi and said, "Are you sure someone is following you?"

Kudo Shinichi was stunned for a moment. Indeed, all his current reasoning is based on the premise that someone is following us, but except for the bodyguards, no one found anyone following us, and he did not find any strange traces nearby.

"I'm sure there is a woman following us." Bodyguard Noburo Hanaoka's tone was very determined, his eyes were anxious, and it didn't seem like he was cheating.

Kudo Shinichi frowned and thought carefully about countermeasures. If he rashly calls the police now, it is estimated that there will be no results, and it will also attract the other party's attention.

Under the arrangement of Kudo Shinichi, he led the way, with Mao Lilan and Suzuki Sonoko in the middle, Mingyue and the bodyguard walking at the end. The group of people took a long detour and finally arrived at the cake shop.

After entering the store, Yuanzi sat down on a chair, exhaled slowly and said, "Nothing happened along the way. I was so nervous for so long in vain."

"Nothing happened because the roads in the new area are good." Mao Lilan also pulled up a chair and sat down.

Yuanzi looked at Mao Lilan with half-moon eyes and said, "Yes, yes, your husband has led the way. I will order a lot of cakes now to appease my injured little heart. You can order whatever you want, and I will pay for it."

Kudo Shinichi saw Ming Yue sending text messages again and was very curious. He said, "Ming Yue, I see that you have been sending text messages along the way. Are you sending them to your brother?"

Mingyue raised her eyebrows and said, "Secret."

Mao Lilan and Suzuki Sonoko also became curious.

However, at this moment, a familiar figure opened the door and walked into the cake shop.

Kudo Shinichi's heart skipped a beat when he looked over, and his expression became serious.

Mao Lilan looked at Kudo Shinichi like this, and she felt relieved at first, and asked: "What? Shinichi?"
