Conan kissed me again and again, and Huiyuan was stunned

"what?"

Kudo Shinichi kept pressing the door handle. He thought Dongfang Haoyue would support his approach, and he subconsciously let out a surprised sound. His thoughts turned in a flash, and he guessed that Haoyue's sister was very likely to seal Haoyue again. A drop of sweat flowed down his cheek, and he confirmed with deep meaning:

"Could it be..."

"Ok!"

Dongfang Haoyue spread out her hands helplessly and nodded heavily.

"All right......"

Kudo Shinichi was speechless for a moment, and had no choice but to accept the cruel reality. He turned around and looked at the three students and Miyano Shiho who had no idea what Shinichi and Haoyue were talking about, and arranged in a serious manner:

"Everyone, split up and head to the surrounding areas where Toshiya's brother might be and ask if anyone has seen Toshiya."

During this period.

Miyano Shiho stood behind Yoshida Ayumi on the left, with her hands hanging down at her sides. She looked at Kudo Shinichi in surprise, and guessed in confusion in her heart:

“Strange... How could Kudo change his mind in such a short time?

Is it because Haoyue said he would bring everyone along to solve the case that Kudo agreed to bring everyone along?

No, there must be a deeper reason hidden that I don’t know.

After all, Kudo said "could it be", and Haoyue replied "hmm".

In other words, they must have experienced similar emergencies before.

besides......

Kudo and Haoyue could have taken us to inquire about the whereabouts of Shunya's brother.

Even if Kudo thought that those guys were the ones who kidnapped Toshiya's brother, there was no need to abandon us. We were just asking about his whereabouts, and there was no chance of a head-on confrontation with those guys, let alone any danger.

Moreover, if there are more people, the speed of searching for people will be faster if they are dispersed.

It would be best for Kudo to take us with him to find someone to find out the whereabouts of Toshiya's brother.

If that’s the case, why was Kudo’s first reaction to abandon us?

Is there something that we cannot discover?

To go further...what thing or thing can help Kudo find Toshiya's brother faster?

What kind of things or things can help Kudo find someone?

police?

Or a convenient means of transportation?

Or... Kudo secretly controls some people?

No, none of them are right.

The one who can help Kudo find someone is definitely not the ones I just mentioned, but... it is related to Haoyue.

Obviously, after Haoyue suggested taking us to look for someone together, Kudo reluctantly agreed to look for someone together.

This shows that Haoyue has a trump card that can help Kudo find someone, and Kudo also knows this matter clearly. However, Haoyue's trump card suddenly became ineffective, and Kudo can only give up relying on Haoyue's trump card.

So...what is Haoyue’s trump card?

What suddenly fails?

Strange...so strange..."

When Miyano Shiho thought of this, he held his chin with the base of his right hand, puzzled.

At this moment.

"Okay~~~!"

When Yoshida Ayumi saw that Kudo Shinichi was willing to lead everyone to solve the case, she raised her hands with a smile on her face.

Kojima Genta clenched his fists and waved them to his waist, urging impatiently:

"Then let's get going quickly!"

at the same time.

Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya quickly walked to Toshiya's left, turned his head to look at him, and asked appropriately:

"Toshiya, where could your brother possibly be?"

Toshiya looked at Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya and was about to answer.

"Talk while walking, otherwise it will take too much time."

Kudo Shinichi pressed the door handle, pushed open the door, hurriedly dragged Dongfang Haoyue into the spacious corridor outside, and ran straight to the closed door of the villa far to the left.

The trio of students and Junya nodded in agreement, lightly following behind Haoyue and Shinichi.

Miyano Shiho temporarily gave up thinking about Dongfang Haoyue's hidden trump card, quickly followed everyone out the door, and closed the wooden door.

--------

After a while, the weather became hot.

The spacious street near the convenience store is bustling with people.

"Nervous."

Dongfang Haoyue was standing on the bluestone bricks at a distance to the left front of the convenience store's sliding glass doors, facing the sidewalk in front.

She bowed slightly, supported the exhausted Kudo Shinichi with her right hand, held the red mailbox near the road with her left hand, wiped the sweat from her chin with the back of her right hand, looked ahead at the traffic light in the distance, and complained tiredly:

"Teahouses, game halls, department stores, alleys... We've looked for any place where Toshiya's brother might go."

"No... No matter where... No one has ever seen Toshiya's brother..."

Ayumi Yoshida stood to the right of Shinichi Kudo, leaning against the cigarette vending machine on the left side of the convenience store door. She lowered her head slightly, closed her eyes, clasped her fingers in front of her chest, and panted in distress.

Shinichi bent his knees slightly, his clothes soaked with sweat, holding Haoyue's right arm with his left hand, supporting his right leg with his right hand, looking down at the cold bluestone bricks, thinking deeply and thornily in his heart:

“No, there are too few clues.

I know that the police have probably checked most of the places that Junye's brother might have been to, and it is unlikely that we will get any results by asking around about the whereabouts of Junye's brother, otherwise the police would have found Junye's brother long ago.

But apart from this method, I have no other chance of finding Junye's brother.

The biggest problem now is...not only has no one seen Junye's brother, no one has seen the woman in black either.

The clues are cut off here, what should I do...”

at the same time.

Miyano Shiho stood to the left of Yoshida Ayumi, with her back to the vending machine, her arms folded, a few drops of sweat running down her neck, and silently looked at Dongfang Haoyue and Kudo Shinichi, especially Shinichi's hand holding Haoyue, and complained in her heart with doubts:

"what's the situation?

No matter how good the relationship is, they wouldn't hug each other's arms to relieve fatigue.

What's going on between the two of them?

I've been feeling weird since the beginning.

First they stood up holding hands, and now they are hugging each other... Rather than being good brothers who share weal and woe, it would be better to say that they are a good couple.

Haha, how is that possible? How can two boys become lovers? Besides, doesn’t Kudo like Mouri Ran?

Kudo Shinichi and Mouri Ran are childhood sweethearts who have a crush on each other. This was said by Mira herself.

I must be overthinking it."

When Miyano Shiho thought of this, she felt that her absurd idea was too ridiculous and shook her head in self-mockery.

Genta Kojima, Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya and Toshiya stood side by side behind Dongfang Haoyue and Kudo Shinichi, relieving their fatigue from running around in different postures.

next second.

"Hey!"

Yoshida Ayumi's strength has recovered a lot. She turned her head to look at Kudo Shinichi and asked in a coquettish voice:

"Can we go to a convenience store?

I’m thirsty~”

"okay."

Kudo Shinichi looked at the tired expressions of the crowd, looked at Yoshida Ayumi in agreement, and thought helplessly:

"Now there is no clue, and blindly searching is just a futile effort. It is better to take a break and ask Jun if he has any other clues."

During this period.

A taller man walked along the sidewalk farther in front of Kudo Shinichi. He was wearing an open black short-sleeved jacket, a white lining, grey trousers, and a black baseball cap. He had long black hair falling down his neck and looked relatively young.

The man put his hands in his trouser pockets, ignored the cigarette vending machine, and walked coldly into the convenience store whose glass door opened automatically.

At this moment.

"Wow~~~!"

Yoshida Ayumi rushed into the convenience store with joy, opened her arms like a little bird, happily felt the cool air from the air conditioner, and ran straight to the shelf far ahead where drinks were stacked, and exclaimed comfortably:

“It’s so cool~~~!”

Dongfang Haoyue followed behind Yoshida Ayumi on the left, feeling the cool air, raised his hands happily, and cheered with joy:

“It’s great to have air conditioning~~~!”

Miyano Shiho followed behind Dongfang Haoyue silently, his hands swinging naturally with his steps. He looked at her expressionlessly, secretly complaining in his heart:

"You're becoming like a kid again."

at the same time.

Kudo Shinichi followed on the right side of Dongfang Haoyue, had already let go of her arm, put his hands in his pockets, looked straight ahead, and secretly observed Miyano Shiho from the corner of his eye. He judged in his heart without quite understanding:

"It's very strange, her expression now doesn't seem like she likes Haoyue at all, but rather she has other intentions.

But what exactly is Haibara Ai plotting against Haoyue?

Or... am I overthinking?

That's right, she's just a child, how could she have any bad intentions? "

When Kudo Shinichi thought about this, he felt that he was being too suspicious and too nervous, so he shook his head.
