I'm in Conan, I'm not a gangster

Chapter 25: Mind Your Own Business (Part 2)
"Oh! What a pity, it was so close!!"

Sonoko watched as Xiaolan almost turned around and kicked Wada Haruna, and shouted what a pity.

"Yes! Xiaolan should have taken one more step forward!" Shinichi also patted his thigh with a look of regret on his face.

"Yes!" Kisaki Eri also clenched her fist to express her regret.

"That's because you don't understand!" Seeing that they didn't understand, Maori Kogoro shook his head and explained: "Xiaolan's back kick is not for attack, but for defense... Didn't you see that Wada Haruna had the intention to attack just now?"

"Is that so?" Shinichi frowned, not seeing any clues.

"Huh? Is that so? I didn't notice that at all." Sonoko was slightly surprised.

Maori Kogoro said: "After being teased by right straight punches continuously, who can resist fighting back?"

As he said that, he looked at Bai Shihui and praised: "What you teach is really good! You have a lot of practical experience. If I were ten years younger, I would definitely fight you hard!"

"How can an elder brother bully a younger brother? Forget it." Shiraishi E teased Mori Kogoro.

This made him very depressed!
Sonoko couldn't help but laugh secretly when she saw Kogoro Mouri's frustrated look.

At this time, she looked at the competition field and said, "Xiaolan has started again!!"

On the field, Xiaolan repeated the same right straight punch to tease Wada Haruna as before.

Shiraishi Hui smiled knowingly, thinking that Xiaolan did not learn the good things, but only learned these bad things, which started to mess with her mentality.

Sure enough, after being teased repeatedly, Wada Haruna became mentally unstable and fought back.

However, her attack had been almost blocked by Xiaolan.

Although Wada Haruna attacked with all her might, they were all blocked by Xiaolan.

She expended a lot of energy but gained nothing.

After seeing her gasping for breath, Xiaolan decisively began to fight back.

Due to lack of strength, Wada Haruna's movements became deformed, so that she failed to defend well and was punched in the chest by Xiaolan.

Xiaolan scored again.

"Great! Xiaolan!!" Sonoko couldn't help but stand up and cheer loudly, saying, "Keep going like this, and defeat the opponent in one go!!!"

"That's right!" Maori Kogoro was not shy at all. He also stood up and shouted, "Lan, don't embarrass your father!"

The two were then warned by the referee.

However, this also added some morale to the already strong Xiaolan!
And just at this moment, Shinichi's cell phone rang.

He stood up and walked to a farther place to answer the phone. When he heard that the person on the other end of the phone, Jusan Megure, had a murder case, he immediately agreed to go.

Shinichi came in front of everyone and said, "Excuse me, everyone. Officer Megure asked me to help him check the scene."

Shiraishi was worried that Shinichi's departure would affect Xiaolan's performance, so she said, "Go quickly and come back soon. Maybe when you come back, Xiaolan will have just received the award."

Shinichi thinks it makes sense!
He originally wanted to say hello to Xiaolan, but these words made him change his mind and said, "Yuanzi, if I haven't come back after Xiaolan receives the award, tell Xiaolan that I went to the murder scene."

"If I come back, then don't tell me."

"Come back soon! Otherwise, when Xiaolan sees you are not here after the game, she will be very unhappy." Although Sonoko was reluctant for Shinichi to leave at this time, she had no way to stop him.

"Okay!" After Shinichi finished speaking, he left the venue without stopping. There was nothing interesting to watch in the following games.

Xiaolan is extremely talented and learns things quickly. She learned a lot of tricks from Shiraishi E. With her rich practical experience, she directly defeated Wada Haruna.

However, she also has a firm grasp of the ways of the world.

Instead of shaving Wada Haruna's head, he made a few deliberate mistakes at the end to give the opponent a few points, which made the score look less ugly.

Seeing Xiaolan win the final victory and go on stage to receive the award, Sonoko was so happy that she hurriedly called Shinichi and said, "Shinichi! Have you finished your end? Xiaolan has already started to receive the award!!"

After hearing this, Shinichi on the other end of the phone said angrily: "There's a traffic jam on the road... I just arrived at the murder scene!"

"Then you're done." Yuanzi said gloatingly: "Then you should figure out how to apologize to Xiaolan!"

After saying that, she didn't want to listen any further and hung up the phone.

--------------------------

"Come on, let's celebrate Xiaolan winning the championship!! Let's drink!"

In a high-end restaurant, Yuanzi held up a bottle of juice and cheered.

Everyone congratulated Xiaolan.

"Thank you, everyone!" This made Xiaolan very happy. She looked at Shiraishi Hui and said, "Especially you, Shiraishi-kun. You have been accompanying me in training after school and have taught me a lot of experience. Thank you very much."

"The most important thing is that you, Xiaolan, study well. It has little to do with me." Shiraishi Hui was not being modest and was speaking the truth.

Otherwise, if it were anyone else, it would be impossible to achieve such a huge improvement in just one month!

"Ei, you are so modest." Sonoko patted Shiraishi's shoulder and said, "Just accept this thank you with peace of mind!"

"Okay, I'll take it!" Shiraishi smiled and said, "Now that I've won the championship, I can finally relax."

"Well, I can finally relax." Xiaolan also felt relieved. This month's high-pressure training was also a burden for her.

"Okay, let's start eating! You're welcome." She signaled to others to start eating.

Xiaolan was very happy that she did not disappoint everyone's expectations and did not waste Shiraishi's efforts.

However, seeing that Shinichi still didn't come over, I couldn't help but feel that something was missing.

After thinking about it, she left her seat, using the excuse of "going to the bathroom", and called Shinichi, urging him to come over quickly.

As soon as Xiaolan left, Maori Kogoro snorted and said unhappily, "That brat is too abominable! He doesn't even come here! Doesn't he know that Xiaolan wants him to come too?"

"Uncle!" Sonoko quickly spoke up for Shinichi, saying, "Shinichi has no other choice. He's busy solving the case... Once he finishes solving the case, he'll rush over right away."

"No matter how busy he is, can he be as busy as me?" Hibiki Eri was vaguely dissatisfied.

"This..." Yuanzi was speechless for a moment.

She knew that Eri Kisaki was a top lawyer who was very busy on weekdays and worked all year round.

They've made time to come here even though they're so busy. Shinichi can't be busier than them, right?
Thinking of this, she glanced at Shiraishi Hui, hoping that she could say a few words for her.

"Eat, Sonoko. If you don't eat now, the food will get cold." Shiraishi Hui picked up two pieces of food for Sonoko with her chopsticks and told her to mind her own business.
