"I am fine."

He took a half step back, bowed his head and said, "Miss Lu Mei, please let me pass."

Still in a state of surprise, Ashimi hesitated for a moment before coming to her senses and making way for him.

Yusuke Suzuki placed the lantern stand steadily on the ground. "Are you hurt?"

"No, thank you." Ashimi Kazube shook her head and then stopped the person who was about to call an ambulance.

Conan stood to the side, looking at the lantern stand with a serious expression.

In this way, the elements now involved are very similar to those in "The Phantom of the Opera".

Reality follows the script...

I have a feeling that someone is manipulating reality and wants something bad to happen.

Conan ran to look at the rope that was holding the lantern stand, and thought to himself, "Just as I thought."

He went straight to the point, "That rope has marks from being cut with a knife."

Everyone's attention shifted simultaneously.

Hearing the commotion, Kataoka Renka ran back with a look of surprise and doubt. "Was it done by a strange person?"

wack?

From the moment we met, the word "weirdo" was mentioned again.

I initially thought it was a character from a drama, but now it seems there are real-life ones?

Conan's expression grew even more serious.

At this moment, Ito Tamanosuke helped Karube Ashimi to her feet and scolded, "What nonsense are you talking about? It was just a prank."

Okay, classic prank.

Is this really your third time participating in a Detective Conan storyline?

It seems like they have absolutely no experience.

Yusuke Suzuki pointed to the lantern stand, "If this is just a prank, isn't it a bit too much?"

“If we’re not careful, Miss Lu Mei could have lost her life on the spot just now.”

Rausu Tatsuhiko, who had also returned after hearing the commotion, agreed, "That's right. If it weren't for this gentleman, we might really have had to change the female lead."

At this moment, Ashimi Karube fully recovered. "This is even better. I'm even more determined now. I won't let that weirdo get away with it."

Kogoro Mouri, who had been silent all along, couldn't hold back any longer. "Excuse me, just a quick interruption, but what exactly are you referring to as this 'weirdo'...?"

"He's that eccentric guy from the Kimpira Theater."

Kataoka Renka tried to explain, but was interrupted again by Ito Tamanosuke, who said it was just a prank.

Seeing that the other party really didn't want to talk, Ran Mouri raised her voice slightly and told him about what had happened that was almost identical to the script of "The Phantom of the Opera," hoping to get Tamanosuke Ito's attention.

She had also seen "The Phantom of the Opera," and she was certainly not stupid; it wasn't hard for her to make that connection.

Well done, Xiao Lan!

Conan was secretly pleased and added, "Didn't Tamanosuke just say he wouldn't grant any requests from monsters?"

At this point, the focus shifted instantly to Ito Tamanosuke.

Kogoro Mouri, displaying the full force of a veteran detective and top-tier master detective, began to pressure Tamanosuke Ito to tell the truth.

"Truly worthy of being called a famous detective."

Seeing that there was no way to hide it anymore, Tatsuhiko Rausu simply said, "Brother Tamanosuke, I think you should tell Mr. Mori what happened."

After a moment of silence, Ito Tamanosuke nodded. "I understand."

As he spoke, Tatsuhiko Rausu walked to Yusuke Suzuki's side, lowered his voice, and extended his right hand, "Would you mind getting to know me? To be frank, you're very skilled. I wonder if you'd be interested in working for me?"

"I need a reliable bodyguard."

Yusuke Suzuki turned around and shook hands with him. "Let me introduce myself first. My surname is Suzuki."

"Suzuki?"

Rausu Tatsuhiko looked surprised.

He had already walked out when Ito Tamanosuke was introducing everyone, so I didn't hear it.

He scrutinized the man's demeanor again, then asked incredulously, "Are you Mr. Suzuki Yusuke, who voluntarily left the Suzuki Group and started EW Company from scratch?"

"Yes, but saying he started from scratch is a bit of an overstatement." Suzuki Yusuke nodded.

Rausu Tatsuhiko chuckled self-deprecatingly, "I was really too abrupt just now, please don't take it to heart. Let's go out for a meal together later if we have time."

“No problem.” Suzuki Yusuke shifted his position to stand next to the other person and continued, “Mr. Rausu, did you sponsor this place because of Ms. Renka, or is it because you yourself also love opera?”

“Half and half,” Rausu Tatsuhiko countered. “What does Mr. Suzuki mean…?”

But Yusuke Suzuki shook his head. "It's nothing, don't worry about it."

He had just thought the other party was young and that there might be opportunities for cooperation in the future.

But then he thought about it again and realized it wasn't necessary.

At this point, Ito Tamanosuke had finished explaining things.

Long before Suzuki Yusuke and the others arrived, they had already received ten threatening letters from the strange man.

The content is the same, it's '広いParticipate in it! thorn され三花に! Sanqi's eccentric person'

It means 'a large audience, being stabbed, scattering flowers. The strange man of the Sanuki Kinpira-za'.

Nothing else happened.

"Then please take me to see the original text of the threatening letter."

Kogoro Mouri looked at Tamanosuke Ito.

Chapter 855 It's Okay to Neglect Me

Now that things have been brought up, it's inappropriate to make excuses anymore.

Ito Tamanosuke nodded. "Please follow me."

When Suzuki Yusuke saw that Eri Kisaki had also gotten up and walked over, he took Ai Haibara's small hand and left with the rest of the group.

After a few shifts in pace, he and the little girl fell to the very back.

"Even in this situation, are you still trying to do something to me?"

Ai Haibara, like a lively little girl, focused intently on placing her feet into every single square on the ground.

After making a mistake, you need to jump back to readjust your rhythm.

"You're recovering pretty quickly."

Yusuke Suzuki continued to exert force with his right hand, providing stable support for his wife.

"Of course, thanks to your help, I am honored that your esteemed son would kneel before me."

Ai Haibara stopped and winked playfully at Yusuke Suzuki.

It has to be said, that little expression is truly touching.

The two were speaking softly, and Kogoro Mouri and his companions were in a hurry to get on their way, continuing to question Tamanosuke Ito, so they didn't pay any attention to what was happening here.

It feels great to be able to speak a little more easily.

"Yusuke, it's okay if you ignore me a little when you're out."

At this moment, Ai Haibara resumed her normal walking posture, saying, "When we're together, we don't necessarily have to talk and chat all the time."

"As a slightly abnormal little girl, just thinking about how to talk to me is exhausting."

"However, I'm understanding and won't hold it against you, so don't worry."

The little girl spoke in a relaxed and casual tone.

Yusuke Suzuki nodded in agreement.

This is indeed something that makes him feel a little uncomfortable right now.

The key issue is that he can no longer treat Ai Haibara like a child.

Their feelings intensified.

He is neither a monk nor a Taoist priest, and does not possess such a high level of mental cultivation.

As an ordinary person, when he is with Ai Haibara, he has to adopt a completely new way of speaking, so that even if he is overheard, there is still room for maneuver.

What do you do when you can't think of anything?

I can only watch.

This is what is meant by "preferring to do nothing rather than make a mistake."

This is the gold standard when you're alone with Ai Haibara.

Doing nothing is tantamount to indifference.

However, now that Ai Haibara has spoken up herself, the pressure on him as her boyfriend has lessened considerably.

"Hurry up, or you might get mistaken for a creepy old man and kidnapped if you don't catch up soon."

Ai Haibara hopped forward a small step with her feet together, turned around and smiled, "I'm very satisfied just to hold hands."

"Ah."

Unable to think of any more words, Yusuke Suzuki simply responded in the most basic way.

The two quickly returned to the rear of the main force.

Well, I guess realistic stories with 'fantasy' elements have always been very appealing.

Suzuki Yusuke and Haibara Ai were gone for at least two minutes, yet no one noticed.

"Madam, watch out for the steps."

Seeing an opportunity to increase his visibility, Yusuke Suzuki quickly offered a reminder.
