Conan: Start from Lucky Three

Chapter 8: Finally grew up to be the person I hated most in my childhood

"It's not a date." Tachibana Shizuka smiled and denied Yoshida Ayumi's gossip. How could he allow others to make trouble so unscrupulously at such a delicate moment?

Sometimes, relationships between men and women can indeed progress further due to the instigation of friends or classmates, but the prerequisite is that at least both men and women are interested in each other.

Otherwise, if one party readily accepts such incitement, it would be a rather abrupt statement to the other party who has no interest in it.

How presumptuous of you.

So Tachibana Shizuka firmly denied Yoshida Ayumi's gossip-filled questions, and then talked about why he and Xiaolan were together.

"For some reason, I missed a week of classes. Maori is a very good student, so I asked her to help me with my studies.

That’s right.”

Just like Conan knows Xiaolan, Tachibana Shizuka also knows Conan's friends very well.

He knew very well that if he treated these kids nicely when he first met them, especially Kojima Genta, these elementary school students would not be polite to him in the future.

Asking you to treat them to a meal is already a courtesy. If they suddenly come out to disrupt you when you are doing something important, and then say they want to help you,
At that time, I was really angry and sulking.

What's that saying? They're all just kids.
But in the final analysis, these kids are a bit naughty, but they are not unforgivable bad people, right?

It's impossible for Tachibana Shizuka to be so rude and cold towards three elementary school students the first time they meet.

But it doesn't matter, Tachibana Shizuka has his own way of dealing with it.

Having all been through the first grade of elementary school, Tachibana Shizuka knows too well what children of this age are most afraid of, or hate the most.

For example, what Tachibana Shizuka is going to say next.

"Today is Sunday, and tomorrow is Monday. School starts on Monday. Kids, have you finished your weekend homework?"

In the end, Tachibana Shizuka grew up to be the person he hated the most in his childhood.

Once upon a time, when Tachibana Shizuka was a child, what he hated most was that when he was playing carefree, there were always adults saying something that spoiled the mood.

When someone asks him this question after he finishes his homework, he always feels a sense of loss and distrust. When someone asks him this question after he hasn't done his homework, he feels an embarrassment of anger and shame.

All in all, there are students who can finish all the holiday homework at the beginning of the holiday, but they are a minority after all.

Most of the time it is not a good experience to be asked by parents about academic performance or whether homework has been completed.

The same is true for Conan's three friends.

The originally lively and cheerful atmosphere suddenly came to a halt. Conan's friends did not expect that this older brother would come up and ask such a heart-wrenching question.

Honey, aren't you being a bit presumptuous? We're obviously not familiar with each other.

Ayumi Yoshida and Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya are fine. Although everyone is playing together, these two children are still very devout when it comes to their homework.

But Kojima Genta was very upset because he was the only one among the four members of the Junior Detective Team who had not finished his homework. Or rather, he had completely forgotten about the homework.

Homework? Bullshit! Why would I need to do homework if it’s not the last day of vacation?

Although he thought so in his heart, when Tachibana Shizuka asked him about it, he felt a sense of trepidation, like being randomly checked by the homeroom teacher. Honestly, Kojima Genta wanted to go home. Or even if not, he wanted to stay away from this devilish older brother.

Looking at the painful expressions of the three little ones, Tachibana Jingsi was a little surprised. How come these three little ghosts fell down before he even put in any effort?
This is not possible!

In his previous life, these three little brats had "disgusted" Tachibana Shizuka for twenty years, but there was no such thing as surrender and losing half as far as he was concerned.

So Tachibana Shizuka continued to ask the three little kids, "Tomorrow is Monday, and we have to face a new week of study.

Have you done your homework for next week's lesson? You are in first grade now, which is the time to lay the foundation.

If I don’t study now, will I wait until I’m far behind others at my age to catch up? By then it will be too late!

Tachibana Shizuka was ready to have a long chat with them, but such a talk about life was more than three elementary school students could bear.

Ayumi Yoshida looked at Conan for help - you were the one who brought the person here, so at least you should be responsible for solving the problem, right?
Conan didn't expect that Shizuka Tachibana had this trick, but he could see that what Shizuka Tachibana said was sincere, and he really wanted the little kids to study hard.

Not to mention Tachibana Shizuka, even Conan wants to, what a pity.
"Tachibana-kun, I think there's no need to rush into learning. Shinichi-kun was more interested in deduction when he was our age."

Conan hurriedly used Kudo Shinichi as an example, and he didn't lie.

When he was in the first grade, studying only took up a small part of his time, and he spent more time reading some reasoning books and watching TV dramas.

Yusaku Kudo and Yukiko Kudo both support Shinichi Kudo in exploring his own interests, and of course his grades have not been affected either.

Facing the expectant gazes of the four elementary school students, Tachibana Shizuka simply sneered, "Haha, so which of you four has a father who is a world-class mystery novelist, or a mother who is a famous actress?"

"Kudo-kun is doing this because his family has a long history of studying. Even if he doesn't study in the future, he can still follow in his father's footsteps and write mystery novels or become an actor.

Can you guys do it?

When the three elementary school students realized that Conan was no match for Tachibana Shizuka, they made the same decision.

The idea is difficult to handle, and the wind is strong!
Yoshida Ayumi immediately changed the subject and smiled sweetly at Xiaolan, "Sister Xiaolan, we have something else to do later, so we'll leave first!

Goodbye, Sister Xiaolan, and Goodbye, Sister Juge! "

After saying that, Ayumi Yoshida ran away. Behind her, Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya and Genta Kojima held Conan on both sides, and she disappeared quickly from their sight regardless of Conan's struggle.

Looking at the Kamen Rider booth in the comics area that had suddenly become empty, Tachibana Seiji gave Xiaolan a helpless look:

"Was the topic I just talked about a little too serious?"

Xiaolan, who smiled at Tachibana Shizuka's expression, shook her head and said, "No, Tachibana-san, you are doing this for their own good.

However, it is extremely difficult to make children understand the importance of learning.

So should we go back to study?"

"Of course, let's go back. School starts tomorrow and today's schedule is very tight." Tachibana Seiji said as he led Xiaolan towards the elevator, then casually asked Xiaolan:

"By the way, Xiaolan, did you smell a 'strange smell' in the elevator just now? That kind of indescribable odor?"
