The Pirated Onmyoji of the Detective World

Following them in was a woman of exceptional beauty and poise.

The woman wore glasses, her hair looked neat and tidy, and she was dressed in dark-colored clothes. Underneath her pencil skirt were a pair of fair and slender legs.

Conan, who was originally observing Ran's potential date, couldn't help but focus his attention on this woman.

This continued until the woman found a seat.

Conan, still leaning on the back of the sofa watching her, exclaimed to Aragaki Yu, "Wow, she's such a beauty!"

Seeing the file folder from the law firm in her hand confirmed her identity as a lawyer.

Only then, recalling his less-than-pleasant memories, did Conan sit back down in his original spot, still feeling lingering fear.

Next to enter was a burly rugby player.

After he sat down at the bar, he greeted the owner, acting as if he knew the owner very well.

He appeared to have been injured during training, as his left ring finger was wrapped in a bandage.

The last person to enter was a frivolous man whose every word and action suggested he was planning a date with a girl.

From any perspective, he fits the characteristics of the target Conan is looking for.

Therefore, Conan's attention was entirely focused on the frivolous man who entered last, and he thought to himself, "Could it be that Ran's date is him?"

While searching for a job, the man also received a phone call from someone who appeared to be a friend.

He spoke flippantly to the person on the other end of the phone, "One of the girls who interned at the TV station last time was quite pretty. There aren't many girls that naive these days. Women are like that; just a few sweet words and you've got them! Hahahaha!"

As he said this, a wicked smile crept across his face.

Upon hearing this, Conan recalled the case where Uncle Mori was invited to participate in a detective show, and one of the producers was murdered.

She had already basically decided in her heart that this man was Xiaolan's date.

Looking at his frivolous manner, Conan was filled with mixed emotions.

Even from a distance, Yuu Aragaki could feel the intense killing intent emanating from Conan.

"Hey, Aragaki-nii... sigh, where is he?" Conan turned his head, just about to discuss with Aragaki Yu how to teach this unreliable scumbag a lesson.

But he found that Aragaki Yu was no longer by his side.

He turned his head again and found that Aragaki Yu was already sitting opposite the female lawyer from before, and they were having a very pleasant conversation.

Conan: ...

He couldn't help but think to himself, "That Aragaki guy! He's really unreliable... Oh well, I guess I'll have to rely on myself!"

Conan activated his power-enhancing shoes, ready to kick the playboy-like man out of the coffee shop.

Just then, the waiter came over and said there was a phone call for Mr. Edogawa.

Conan had no choice but to stop what he was doing and run forward to take the phone from the waiter: "Hello, who is this?"

All that could be heard on the other end of the phone was Ran's voice: "Conan! I'm sorry, I can't come over to your place right now! The cash register at this store is broken, so they can't give me change. By the way, did anyone come looking for me earlier?"

Upon hearing Ran's last words, Conan's face immediately fell.

He reluctantly replied, "Yes, isn't it because your hair is long?"

"Yes, yes, yes! That's her!" Xiaolan's voice sounded very happy.

But then she looked a little puzzled, "But that's strange, she usually ties her hair up!"

Conan turned around and saw the frivolous man tie up his hair and head towards the restroom. He said helplessly, "That's right, he just tied his hair up. I'm telling you, Ran-neechan, please don't meet with people like that..."

However, before Conan could finish speaking, Ran hurriedly said, "Ah, Conan! The cash register seems to be fixed. I'll be right back!"

He hung up the phone without waiting for Conan's reply.

"Wait, wait! Ran-neechan..." Hearing the busy tone on the phone, Conan angrily looked towards the restroom.

"hateful!"

……

As for Aragaki Yu on the other side, he left his seat while Conan was still observing the others.

He picked up his coffee and naturally sat down in the seat opposite the female lawyer.

The female lawyer, who was looking down at the documents in the file folder, vaguely sensed that a stranger had suddenly sat down opposite her, and her brows furrowed involuntarily.

When she looked up, she found a boy who looked like a high school student sitting opposite her.

For some reason, when she saw the boy's fair and handsome face, as well as his bright and piercing eyes, her previously unpleasant mood immediately disappeared.

She couldn't help but secretly admire her, thinking, "She's actually quite pretty."

However, the female lawyer still looked at the uninvited boy with a questioning and inquisitive gaze.

Facing her scrutinizing gaze, Aragaki Yuu didn't stand on ceremony and greeted her with a smile: "Hello, Attorney Ki?"

The boy's smile made her feel like she was basking in a spring breeze, and she wasn't too surprised that he recognized her.

After all, Eri Kisaki is a senior lawyer, and her story is frequently published in various newspapers and magazines.

Eri nodded to him, acknowledging her identity.

She returned the smile to the boy she had taken a liking to at first sight: "Well, young man, what brings you here?"

“Nothing special, it’s just that I just noticed you look remarkably similar to one of my classmates, and I also happened to see the lawsuit file you were actually looking at,” Aragaki Yu explained.

He paused for a moment, took a breath, and then continued, "That's why I guessed that you might be the legendary Attorney Fei, and that's why I took the liberty of coming up to say hello."

Yuuka Aragaki has always been very curious about the Queen of the Law in this world of Detective Conan.

Since this was a rare opportunity, and he happened to run into Eri Kisaki, Yuu Aragaki naturally wanted to take this chance to get to know her.

Sitting in his seat, Aragaki Yu stared curiously at Eri Kisaki's delicate face.

I was utterly perplexed.

I wonder what good deeds Kogoro Mouri did in his past life to be able to be with Eri Kisaki.

Could this be the reason why Kogoro Mouri seems to die wherever he goes?

Eri Kisaki felt a little embarrassed by the intense gaze of the young man in front of her.

Although the boy's gaze was intense, she could not detect the slightest lewdness in it; her eyes held only pure admiration and praise.

Therefore, she had no way to lash out; instead, she felt a strange flutter in her heart.

"Ahem..." Fei Ying cleared her throat, using the action of fixing her bangs to shield herself from the boy's gaze.

To dispel the strange feeling in her heart, she quickly tried to find a topic of conversation and said, "Oh! Really? Who was the classmate you were referring to?"

"Ah, I'm sorry!" Aragaki Yu realized his rudeness only then, hurriedly averting his gaze and replying, "I forgot to introduce myself. My name is Aragaki Yu, I'm a student at Teitan High School, and I'm also your daughter, Mo..."

"what!!!"

Just then, a man's panicked scream came from the toilet.

This sound is...

The voice of that frivolous man who just walked into the restroom!

As this sound was heard, many people in the coffee shop exchanged unusual glances.

Chapter 54 I really can't bring Conan along.

Upon hearing the sound, Conan rushed headlong into the coffee shop's restroom.

He pushed open the door and saw the man who had been so frivolous just moments before now slumped on the floor, pointing in front of him with a look of terror on his face.

Conan looked in the direction he was pointing.

But what was seen on the toilet floor, flowing from the toilet stalls, was clearly a pool of bright red blood.

Conan sensed something was wrong and, ignoring the group of people behind him who had rushed over after hearing the commotion, ran straight to the toilet stall where the incident had occurred.

I tried pushing the cubicle door and found that although the door wasn't locked, something inside seemed to be blocking it, so I couldn't push it open.

So Conan used his shoes, which enhanced his leg strength, to leap lightly upwards and grab the top of the door.

He climbed over the partition and looked into the toilet stall. He saw the woman who had been so rude in the coffee shop earlier lying in a pool of blood, her face full of terror.

As a result, her upper body ended up pressing against the toilet stall door.

When Xiaolan rushed back to the coffee shop, she found a large crowd gathered in front of the shop.

As she approached, she discovered that the coffee shop had been sealed off by the police.

After asking passersby, they learned that a girl had been murdered in the coffee shop.

Because the coffee shop was locked down, Xiaolan could only wait anxiously outside the police cordon.

She looked worriedly towards the coffee shop, a hint of unease creeping into her heart: "Could it be that person has also been dragged into this incident? Sigh, I really shouldn't have brought Conan along..."

……

In the cafe.

Inspector Megure, holding the photo Conan had taken immediately, compared it to the crime scene and asked, "Conan, so the victim was lying at the doorway just like in the photo, right?"

Conan looked at Inspector Megure and said, "Well, because the door wasn't locked at the time, I jumped up to take a look."
