Ke Xue: My standards for dating are not problematic!

Chapter 442 Hattori Heiji, you deserve to die!

Ding-ling-ling
Not long after the phone call, the class bell rang. Upon hearing the bell, Conan immediately said, "Hattori, I have to go to class."

After saying that, he hung up the phone, put the earring-shaped phone in his pocket, and walked towards the classroom.

Just as Conan had taken a few steps, he suddenly heard a familiar voice behind him: "Conan, why is your butt covered in dust? Did you sit on the stairs?"

"But why are you sitting on the stairs? Are you on the phone with someone?!"

The next second, Conan froze, and the smile on his face vanished.

Because he knew very well whose voice was behind him—it was his half-father, his former homeroom teacher, and the devilish PE teacher.
Kitahara Natsuyu!

"Oh no, did he hear what I just said to Hattori?!" Conan thought, and a cold sweat broke out on his face.

After all, he had just talked to Hattori Heiji about a lot of secrets on the phone, including his identity, such as Hattori Heiji calling him Kudo Shinichi, and he even talked about Ran on the phone.

If all of this is heard, then he
Sigh, it seems like nothing will happen.
At this moment, Conan suddenly realized that Kitahara Natsuyu was his mother's man, and the two of them had a very close relationship. In addition, his mother was a hopeless romantic, and she might have accidentally told Kitahara Natsuyu about this.

So, there shouldn't be anything wrong, right?

Yes, Yukiko Fujimine is indeed a love-obsessed person; otherwise, she wouldn't have gotten married so quickly in the second year after she became famous, and then retired to become a housewife.

However, Fujimine Yukiko's love-obsessed mind is different from others; her brain hasn't been affected much, otherwise she wouldn't have divorced Kudo Yusaku.

It can be said that there are different levels of being obsessed with love.

Even though that's how things are, sometimes you still have to pretend. At least he can't say anything before Kitahara Natsuyu does, for his own safety.

However, quite a few people already know Conan's true identity; it's just that Conan himself is unaware of it.

"No, I just had a bit of a stomachache, so I sat here for a bit. It's nothing serious, I'm all better now!" Conan rubbed his stomach, giving an awkward but polite smile.

Upon hearing this, Kitahara Natsuyu said with a half-smile, "Oh, I see. I thought you were hiding here talking on the phone with someone again!"

"Oh no, I forgot about that!"

Conan realized that Kitahara Natsuhiro might know his true identity, but whether he knew or not was no longer important. What mattered was that if he got caught making the phone call, he might be punished by copying the school rules again.

After all, Kitahara Natsuhiro really wanted to punish him!

Of course, he was also at fault, otherwise he wouldn't have been punished!
"No, no!" Conan said, "I'm a well-behaved and obedient child. How could I possibly bring my cell phone to school and make a call?"

"Teacher, you have to believe me!"

Bringing things over is one thing, admitting it is another, and besides, he wasn't caught red-handed.

As long as it's not done in front of Kitahara Natsuhiro, there won't be any problems.

"Really not?" Kitahara Natsuhiro squatted down, approached Conan, and asked with a smile.

Conan, seeing Kitahara Natsuhiro's appearance, felt a cold sweat break out on his back; he was terrified.

Because he really didn't want to be punished by copying the school rules again; that was a nightmare!

"No, no, absolutely not!" Conan immediately shook his head and subconsciously reached for his earring phone in his pocket, but he held back in the end.

If I touch him now, wouldn't that give Kitahara Natsuyu a chance to punish him?

Although Kitahara Natsuyu is his mother's boyfriend, he won't hold back at this time and will even go to great lengths!
"No, no, why are you so nervous!" Kitahara Natsumi chuckled and patted Conan on the shoulder. "Hurry up and get to class! The bell has already rung!"

"Ah!" Upon hearing this, Conan immediately glanced at his watch and realized that class had already started several minutes ago.

Immediately, he bowed slightly to Kitahara Natsuyu and then sprinted toward the classroom.

No matter how fast Conan sprinted, he still couldn't catch up, because the teacher had already started the lesson.

But Conan is also a cunning and treacherous person. He made up a story that he had a stomachache and went to the toilet, and that's how he got away with it.

Conan finally breathed a sigh of relief after successfully passing the test.

Meanwhile, Kitahara Natsuhiro watched Conan's retreating figure, stroking his chin and muttering, "Kid, I heard everything. I'm not punishing you this time only for Yukiko's sake, and besides, I've been in a pretty good mood lately."

Of course, Conan has been working in his shop for so long, so let's exempt Conan from punishment!

After all, he didn't pay the wages!
"Speaking of Hattori Heiji, I think I have an appointment with his mother." Kitahara Natsuyu walked forward. "I'll go to Osaka sometime and have a good chat with Hattori Shizuka then!"

Then, he began patrolling the classroom corridor.

Before we knew it, it was time to let out for the afternoon school.

After school, Conan and the others immediately left the school with their backpacks and headed to Professor Agasa's house to discuss their camping trip for the weekend.

However, camping was a thing of the past; now they were heading to the twin skyscrapers of Nishitama City.

However, this week is not a banquet. Instead, Tokiwa Mio invited Mouri Kogoro to come over this week to take a look and get familiar with things. The banquet will be next week.

And going to the Twin Towers made Yuan Tai and the others happier than going camping.

"Go home early, don't linger on the road, you hear me!" Kitahara Natsuyu knew about this, looked at Conan and Ayumi, and then gave them a few instructions.

He didn't want to go looking for these little brats in the middle of the night!
"understood!"

After Conan and the others responded in unison, they left, saying goodbye to Kitahara Natsuhiro, Haibara Ai, and Katsuragi Sachiko, and went to Professor Agasa's house.

After they left, Kitahara Natsuhiro and the others also prepared to head to the shop.

As for Katsuragi Sachiko, she went with them, but not into the shop.

Because Sachiko Katsuragi lives in Beika Town, and is near the Beika Apartment, only about a kilometer away.

In fact, this was something Rum did intentionally, with the aim of making better contact with Kitahara Natsuhiro.

Originally, Rum could have prepared an apartment in Beika for Katsuragi Sachiko, but given Katsuragi Sachiko's current condition, how could she afford to rent an apartment in Beika?

So, in order to avoid attracting attention, I rented a house nearby, a house that was much worse than Mihua Apartment.

That's why Sachiko Katsuragi and Natsuhiro Kitahara are practically neighbors.

Kitahara Natsuyu didn't seem to care much about this, but Haibara Ai was quite concerned.

Because she seemed to have figured something out—not that she realized Katsuragi Sachiko was a member of the Black Organization, and besides, her radar hadn't gone off. After all, how could someone who hadn't joined the organization, but only knew some low-level members, possibly trigger her radar?

Therefore, she realized that Katsuragi Sachiko seemed to have some improper thoughts about Kitahara Natsuhiro.

On the contrary, Kitahara Natsuhiro seems to have some improper thoughts about Katsuragi Sachiko.

In fact, Kitahara Natsuhiro has always been open to such inappropriate advances.

Sachiko Katsuragi has essentially walked right into a trap.

To be honest, Ai Haibara didn't know why Sachiko Katsuragi did this, and she had a gut feeling that something was wrong, but she couldn't pinpoint what it was.

However, she didn't think too much about it. Kitahara Natsuyu was a half-human, half-ghost being. Even if he was plotted against, it wouldn't matter, because he could handle it himself, and in a way that was completely undetectable.

For example, Kuroba Toichi.

Ai Haibara was unaware of Toichi Kuroba's situation; Kitahara Natsuyu hadn't told anyone.

"By the way, Katsuragi-sensei," Kitahara Natsuyu turned to Katsuragi Sachiko and said, "Would you like to come to the banquet at the Twin Towers skyscrapers in Nishitama City?"

"A banquet at the Twin Towers skyscrapers?" Sachiko Katsuragi asked in surprise, "Is it really okay for me to go?"

She didn't refuse because she had a mission to complete, and if she refused now, it would be even more difficult next time.

Furthermore, she knew about the twin skyscrapers in Nishitama City; she knew about them before this.

After all, she used to be the prospective daughter-in-law of a diplomat, but now she's just a miserable, bad woman burdened with debt.

Furthermore, Ai Haibara also told her some things about the Twin Towers skyscrapers today, but she didn't invite her.

"It's alright." Kitahara Natsuyu waved his hand and said, "It's more lively with more people, and we're friends now, so there's nothing wrong with bringing friends along."

"Well then, thank you." Katsuragi Sachiko was quite polite, bowing slightly to Kitahara Natsuhiro.

"It's alright, it's alright." Kitahara Natsuyu waved his hand: "We're all friends, don't be so formal."

"And if you really want to thank someone, you've come to the wrong person. You should thank Ms. Sonoko Suzuki."

"Miss Suzuki Sonoko."

She knew about Sonoko Suzuki too, because Ran had spoken to her.

Furthermore, women have a lot to talk about, and they quickly struck up a conversation. She had also chatted with Sonoko at the restaurant.

“Yes, you can thank Sonoko later.” Kitahara Natsuyu said, “Alright, it’s getting late, let’s head over now!”

"it is good!"

On the other side, in Osaka.

After school, Heiji Hattori was about to go home, but he had to call Kazuha Toyama before he got there.

Before this, his mother had texted him, asking him to invite Toyama and Kazuha to her house for dinner.

The Toyama family and Hattori have a very good relationship, and they have known each other since childhood, so going to each other's house for a meal is nothing unusual.

Although Kazuha Toyama often ate at Heiji Hattori's house, Heiji Hattori rarely ate at Kazuha Toyama's house.

Because of Toyama Kazuha's father, Toyama Ginjiro always had a somewhat unfriendly look in his eyes whenever he saw him, but his gaze was sometimes quite complex and full of contradictions.

He didn't quite understand why Ginjiro Toyama would have that expression, and he didn't dare ask, for fear of getting beaten up.

He was beaten up by Ginjiro Toyama when he was a child.

As for why he got beaten up, it was simply because he bullied Kazuha.

"Kazuha, hurry up!" Hattori Heiji said, holding his schoolbag and putting his hands behind his head. "My mom's still waiting at home!"

"Is your aunt waiting at home? Going to meet the parents again?" a girl joked with a boy. "They're so affectionate right after school, it's really enviable!"

The entire class, including the teacher, knew about Kazuha Toyama's relationship with Heiji Hattori.

So these kinds of words don't really matter, and both Kazuha Toyama and Heiji Hattori are tired of hearing them.

Even so, Toyama Kazuha blushed slightly and couldn't help but pout, "I'm going to get angry!"

"Oh dear, Kazuha's going to get angry, let's hurry up and go." The girl smiled and said goodbye to Kazuha, then left the classroom.

The boys did the same, giving Hattori Heiji a few light elbows as they passed by, their faces filled with envy and jealousy.

"Those guys are really something." Toyama Kazuha sighed, hands on her hips, watching their retreating figures, then picked up her schoolbag: "I'm done, let's go home!"

"Hmm." Kazuha Toyama said, "Heiji, do you know why your aunt asked me to come over today?"

Upon hearing this, Hattori Heiji put his hands behind his back and said leisurely, "I don't know. My mom didn't tell me. She just asked you to come with her."

"I see," Toyama Kazuha thought to himself upon hearing this, "What exactly is it?"

"Forget it, I don't want to think about it anymore. I'll find out when I get to Heiji's house."

"But I need to send Dad a text message and tell him to figure out how to make dinner himself!"

Her mother, who is also a police officer, is away on a business trip and not at home, so Ginjiro Toyama has to eat by himself.

As he spoke, he took out his phone and sent a text message to his mother, Ginjiro Toyama.

A short while later, Ginjiro Toyama received a text message from his beloved daughter. Looking at the message, he stroked his chin and muttered to himself, "Shizuka asked Kazuha to go out for dinner. She probably wants to say something, right?"

"Let's call Pingzang and ask!"

As he spoke, he dialed the number of his good friend Hattori Heizo to ask what was going on.

He soon learned the whole story.

"Oh, so that's what it is. So you have a rival for Ye's affections."

"But... that brat Heiji actually said something like that to a little girl, he deserves to die!"
