When they reached the door of the villa, Fujie Akiyoshi noticed some footprints on the ground around them, which looked fresh. This proved that the people who were invited here had not arrived much earlier than them. It had been raining for an hour or two, so they were more or less stained.

Thinking of this, Fujie Akiyoshi took out the key Ayako gave him and opened the door.

"Lan and Sonoko, Ayako was worried that you two wouldn't be able to adapt to the night, so she arranged you to stay in the same room, which is on the right hand side at the end of the corridor. Don't go to the wrong room, as some people have already gone to their rooms and may even be taking a shower."

Fujie Akiyoshi reminded them that it was Xiaolan who accidentally walked into the room of the murderer Takahashi Ryoichi. The murderer was worried that Xiaolan would see his figure, so he tried to hurt Xiaolan several times.

He didn't dare to risk Xiaolan's life. After all, if Conan didn't follow her, who knew if there would be any butterfly effect.

"Oh, I see."

"Here are the keys, take them."

Fujie Akiyoshi handed the key to Sonoko and walked into the villa, just in time to see Suzuki Ayako walking towards him.

"elder sister!"

When Sonoko saw the person coming, she threw herself into Ayako's arms.

"Hello, Sister Ayako!"

Xiaolan greeted politely.

"Long time no see, Xiaolan. I hope you have fun here!"

"You guys continue talking, I'm going to the kitchen to prepare dinner."

Fujie Akiyoshi talked to the three girls, then turned and walked into the kitchen.

"I didn't expect that Fujie-san would be the one cooking today. We're in for a treat!"

Sonoko said happily that Fujie Akiyoshi's cooking skills have always been very good, especially Chinese food. She and Xiaolan used to visit him often, and besides reading comics, they also went to eat for free.

"Then let me help you."

Ayako came over to help. Although as a young lady she had never learned cooking, she could still help out in the kitchen.

"Then I'll trouble you!"

The two smiled at each other, and then Ayako held Fujie Akiyoshi's arm and walked in together.

"Okay then, I'll take Xiaolan back to the room first."

Yuanzi looked at the two lovers walking together, and a wonderful feeling arose in her heart again. She just wanted to leave here with her best friend Xiaolan.

Thanks to Fujie Akiyoshi's reminder, the two of them did not go into the wrong room.

Yuanzi sat down on the bed and said to Xiaolan with a somewhat envious tone:

"Xiao Lan, I'm so envious of my sister!"

"What's wrong, Sonoko?"

Xiaolan came over and said that if Yuanzi was really depressed about something, she would be happy to help her share her burden.

"It's nothing. I just feel envious when I see my sister and Fujie-san walking together. If she hadn't met Fujie-san, I think my sister would have to obey her family's arrangements and marry the son of a group chairman to form a political marriage. Now it's different. After meeting Fujie-san, my sister can bravely pursue her dreams. I'm really a little envious!"

There was a hint of sadness in Yuanzi's eyes, and there was also a feeling of melancholy about her uncertain future.

"Xiaolan, actually I..."

Sonoko looked at Xiaolan and looked into her eyes, then she mustered up the courage to say something in Xiaolan's ear.

"what?!"

Xiaolan couldn’t believe that Sonoko actually liked...!

"Shh, don't tell anyone. I've been feeling embarrassed because of this. I don't know how to face it... Never mind, let's not talk about it anymore. Let's talk about you and Shinichi!"

Sonoko covered her blushing face and changed the subject in an attempt to ease her embarrassment.

"There's really nothing going on between Shinichi and I. Please stop imagining this!"

Xiaolan quickly denied it. It is true that Kudo Shinichi did have a special place in her heart. After all, he was her childhood sweetheart and helped her a lot when she was young. Therefore, Xiaolan often tried to report to Shinichi, such as helping him clean the house.

It can be said that she still retains the kind of feeling called love and care for Shinichi, and has a kind of respect and love for Fujie Akiyoshi that is more like a brother plus some complicated emotions.

This made Xiaolan feel very confused, and sometimes she didn't know how to face these two people.

(I can only say that Xiaolan still has some secret crush on Kudo Shinichi and cares about him, and she tends to have family affection for the protagonist)

"Did Kudo Shinichi call you?"

Sonoko continued to ask.

"Yes, he said he was out handling a case and wouldn't be back for a while. After that, he hasn't contacted me for a long time."

Xiaolan said with a gloomy look.

"That guy Kudo Shinichi better not go out to look for other girls, otherwise I will never let him go!"

Hearing this answer, Yuanzi frowned and then said.

"Boom boom boom!"

"Sonoko, Xiaolan can come down and prepare for dinner."

Hearing the knock on the door and her sister's voice outside, Sonoko quickly looked down at the watch in her hand. This was the watch given to her by Fujie Akiyoshi on her birthday last year.

"It's been half an hour. Sister, we'll be down right away."

Sonoko and the other person went downstairs, and not long after, several college classmates invited by Ayako came out one after another.

There were three men and one woman. The man in front had long black hair and a green headband. He had an unlit cigarette in his mouth and looked a bit sultry.

"Hello, ladies. My name is Ota Masaru. I used to be the leading actor in our movie company. I am currently a salesman for imported cars."

Ota Masaru introduced himself first, and the people behind him also started.

The only woman spoke first. Her name was Chikako Ikeda. She was dressed in purple and looked a little cold and impatient. She had worked as a director, scriptwriter, and president of the film club when she was in the film club. After graduating from university, she worked as an editor.

The man who had been holding the camera was called Hiroki Kadaya. He was tall and looked honest. When he introduced himself to Xiaolan and the others, he gave people a casual feeling. As a photography enthusiast, even now he works as a photography editor in a movie magazine. In the past, he was in charge of special effects photography in a film club.

When Hiroki Kadaya was talking, his eyes would occasionally glance at Chikako Ikeda. Anyone with a discerning eye could tell that he liked Chikako Ikeda.

The last one is called Takahashi Ryoichi, he is a fat guy who looks very honest. He is currently working in a food company. He used to be in charge of props in the club and did not have any professional work.

"Chef Youwei is helping us cook, so let's chat freely now."

After Ayako finished speaking, the other people also started talking about their previous college life.

"Ayako, congratulations. You are probably the one who has gone the furthest in the film industry in our film club."

Chikako Ikeda said that because of her relationship with Fujie Akiyoshi, Ayako Suzuki has participated in many world-famous movies. She is also very famous, and now Suzuki Ayako also has the title of world-renowned screenwriter.

This was far beyond what an editor like her could achieve. It was thought that Ayako would give up her film career because of her family, but in the end she went the furthest and was the most successful.

She is beautiful and has a good family background, and she even met and worked with the most famous idol in Japan. Such a life experience is really enviable!

Fujie Akiyoshi: It's okay, you can be younger than when Ayako died!

"Nothing much. If I hadn't met Fujie, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to produce any works now."

Ayako said modestly that she knew that she could get to this point thanks to Fujie Akiyoshi. This favor was really too great, and she could not repay it, so she could only...rc...cough cough, I won't write in detail, everyone who understands will understand!

"It would be nice if Dunzi was here at this class reunion."

When Takahashi Ryoichi mentioned this name out of the blue, the atmosphere suddenly became cold.

"Don't mention the dead man's name here. It's a downer!"

Chikako Ikeda's face changed and she said with a somewhat ferocious expression.

"Excuse me."

Takahashi Ryoichi lowered his head, and no one noticed that I had a cruel smile on my face.

Seeing that the atmosphere was becoming weird, Suzuki Ayako suggested that everyone move around freely.

Ryoichi Takahashi said that there might be some problems with the roof, and since it was still raining, he volunteered to go up there.

"Hmph, I'll take a walk to get some fresh air."

"Chikako, it's raining outside, wait for me to get an umbrella!"

Hiroki Kakutani instantly turned into a bootlicker, thinking only of the goddess.

"no need!"

Chikako Ikeda didn't seem to be followed by anyone and ran out on her own. Upon seeing this, Hiroki Kakutani quickly went to his room to get an umbrella and prepared to chase after her.

That Ota Katsu stood up and walked towards Xiaolan. Xiaolan felt strange and didn't know what the other party wanted.

"My beautiful lady, you seem to be lonely too. I wonder if you are interested in taking a walk in the rain with me?"

Ota Katsu said this frivolously, and then stretched out his hand to pull Xiaolan up.

"I'm sorry, Xiaolan doesn't need an outsider like you to take care of her whether she's lonely or not!"

A hand suddenly rushed out and grabbed Ota Katsu, stopping his next move.

“Hey, what are you doing…!”

Seeing someone trying to stop him from chatting up a beautiful woman, Ota Katsu turned around angrily. Just as he was about to scold the other person, he was stunned after seeing the other person's face clearly.

"Fujie-san!"

When Xiaolan and Sonoko saw the people who rescued them, they shouted happily in unison.

The person who came was Fujie Akiyoshi who was in the kitchen. The meal had just been prepared and he happened to see Ota Masaru chatting up Xiaolan.

How could he tolerate this? He intervened without even thinking.
