Conan’s Corpse Picker

Chapter 99: Did you really not love me?

Chapter 99 Did you really not love me?

 In a coffee shop.

  Conan, who was sitting next to Mao Lilan, was in a very subtle mood.

Early this morning, Mao Lilan dressed up carefully, and then slipped out of the door beautifully, with the reason of "going to see Kudo Shinichi."

Conan suddenly became alert after being stunned. He followed him to the coffee shop as if facing an enemy, but he couldn't figure out who Mao Lilan wanted to see. All she said was that it was an "important person."

The coquettish rolling all was invalid, and Conan could only make a sullen hands in the end. At this moment, he suddenly caught a glimpse of a familiar figure from the corner of his eye.

 He sat up and turned his head.

They saw Jiang Xia standing next to their seats, casting friendly glances.

Conan suddenly had an expression that was struck by lightning.

He stayed for two seconds before thawing out from the petrified state. He looked at Jiang Xia with a sorrowful look like "I treat you as a brother and you actually...": "Why are you?! When did you start... Uh-huh!"

A vein popped out of Mao Lilan's forehead, and she pressed Conan's mouth: "Sorry, the kid is not sensible."

Jiang Xia shook her head kindly: "It's okay."

 He put down the drink, turned around and left.

 …

Conan was startled, his eyes covered by jealousy were re-energized, and he finally discovered that Jiang Xia was wearing waiter's clothes and holding a tray in his hand, as if he was working.

 After coming to this conclusion, the logic of Conan's disconnection slowly came back a little bit - if Xiaolan wanted to see Jiang Xia, there was no need to make an appointment so far away, and she would not pick up Jiang Xia's work time to come and cause trouble...

 It would be easier if it wasn’t Jiangxia.

Conan took a deep breath and regained his composure - he didn't believe that "important person" Xiaolan would be smarter or more handsome than him.

 …

Mao Lilan didn't notice Conan's burning eyes.

Today, of course she is not here to meet her boyfriend.

Instead, she made an appointment with Fei Yingli, her biological mother.

 Ten years ago, Fei Yingli and Mouri Kogoro had a quarrel and separated, and the opportunities for mother and daughter to meet became rare.

Mao Lilan always felt that these backgrounds were too heavy for a first-grade child, so she refused to tell Conan who the "important person" was, and wanted to persuade Conan to leave.

Thinking of Conan who refused to leave, Mao Lilan looked around awkwardly, and suddenly found a cake shop with a long queue across the street.

 With such a long queue, the cakes in the store must be delicious...

 While thinking about it, an illusory light bulb appeared above Mao Lilan's head.

"I remember you like sweets, right?" Mao Lilan smiled and touched Conan's head. "Sister, go buy a cake from the other side and you can take it back to eat, okay?"

With that said, she stood up and walked out.

Conan looked at her back silently through the floor-to-ceiling windows.

When Mao Lilan entered the store opposite, Conan immediately stood up and slipped to the counter. He found Jiang Xia and asked in a low voice: "Um, do you know who Xiaolan is here to see today?"

Jiang Xia lowered her head and glanced at him: "..." It felt like Conan had let himself go more and more since he took off his vest at KTV last time. Now this tomboy looked like "Kudo Shinichi" in front of him.

 Speaking of this…

Jiang Xia suddenly remembered that she would have to take some time to remind Shirley... Well, she has probably changed her name to Hui Yuan Ai now. Remind Haiyuan Ai not to sell "Jiang Xia" as a worker in the organization, so that he can continue to be a good citizen in the eyes of the red party and avoid harassment.

However, there is no need to rush into this matter. According to Haihara Ai's character, even if he doesn't remind him. She probably wouldn't say it either.

 …

Jiang Xia pondered for a while about something completely unrelated.

Then he looked at Conan who was nervously waiting for the answer, and pretended to shake his head as hard as he could: "I don't know, there is too little information. And I just came here today, and I may not have stayed in this store as long as you."

 “That’s it…” Conan was a little disappointed.

 Without Jiang Xia's help in cheating and catching his love rival, he could only return to his seat and stare at the other guests, trying to find out Mao Lilan's date.

 …

Jiang Xia began to serve the plates seriously.

After being busy for a while, he wiped his hands behind the bar, glanced across the store, and landed on the customers who had just entered.

These people gradually entered the store after Mao Lilan left.

Conan's eyes are also focused on these people in an eerie way - in his opinion, these are all Mao Lilan's "dating suspects".

 The table where Conan is sitting is right in the middle.

 On the table on either side of him sat a handsome, handsomely dressed playboy.

On the other side, there is a very beautiful middle-aged woman with bunned hair and bright and sharp eyes.

Conan looked back and forth for a while, feeling that the middle-aged woman looked familiar, but he didn't remember who she was.

 Just forget it if you can’t remember it. Conan quickly looked away from her—right now, he didn't care about the woman in the store. What he is looking for is the mysterious **** man who came to date Xiaolan...

 …

Jiang Xia was holding coffee as she passed by the table.

 Then he saw Conan holding the back of his chair and staring at the **** sitting next to him with a kind of resentful look that only belonged to a murderer.

 —When this flower boy was on the phone, he showed off to his friends that he had “made a date with a pure little sister.”

Conan eavesdropped for a while and mistakenly thought that the **** was dating Mao Lilan.

The tomboy's eyes gradually became gloomy, and his hand was ready to touch the switch of the foot-strengthening shoes.
