Soon, he saw a blue tennis bag on the floor near the living room.

He had seen Xiaolan carry this tennis bag before. It contained some items that were often used during sports.

For example, thermos, energy drinks, antiperspirant, chocolate, towels-----and so on.

Xiaolan is the leader of the karate club. She sweats a lot during her daily practice. It is normal for a girl to prepare several different towels to wipe different parts of her body.

The logic is sound, but it tastes a bit harsh.

While Chen Nuo was trying to find out the truth of the incident, Xiaolan had already put down the refreshments prepared for the guests and was about to bend down to pick up the towel.

Because of the tablecloth, Chen Nuo's condition couldn't be seen at the moment, but if she really lifted the tablecloth...

It would probably be embarrassing, right?

"Let me do it."

Chen Nuo picked up the towel before Xiaolan and handed it to Xiaolan.

Xiaolan held the towel in her hand. The soft towel still retained the sweat and smell of Chen Nuo's body.

Xiaolan leaned close to Chen Nuo's ear and explained in a low voice: "I, I clean it every time I go home, so it's not dirty at all."

Chen Nuo looked suspicious and wondered why there was a smell every time he cleaned it?

Xiaolan blushed when Chen Nuo looked at her, and she simply pinched the flesh on his waist with her small hands: "Huh? What's that expression on your face? It's just a towel that I used to wipe my feet. Then, didn't you also--" "-" Xiaolan's voice became smaller and smaller, and finally she said in a mosquito-like voice: "Don't you like it too?"

Chen Nuo: "I didn't."

Xiaolan: "I saw everything, your reaction at that time."

Chen Nuo was startled: "What's the reaction?"

"It feels like the same expression as Genta's when he ate the eel rice." Xiaolan thought of an adjective.

Chen Nuo shook his head: "No, you must have seen it wrong, my face was definitely full of pain at that time."

The two of them started talking in a low voice.

Miss Sasaki Hitomi, the instigator of this incident, who was sitting across the table, still felt guilty. Perhaps it was also because she was shocked by Chen Nuo's bamboo sword and her body felt a little weak.

So she didn't interrupt their conversation.

As a guest, director Motoki Kazuo wanted to invite the other party to take charge of the troupe today, but of course he didn't have the courage to ask.

Suzuki Sonoko stared blankly at Xiaolan and Chen Nuo whispering to each other, and even forgot Kudo Shinichi's instructions to immediately stop any overly intimate behavior.

Because it seemed that something more intimate had happened between her and Chen Nuo just now.

That thing... should be an arm, right?

Suzuki Sonoko looked a little dazed. Although she had never seen the real thing, health classes and movies had helped her learn about it.

but·

I feel like humans probably don't have that size, right?

And she remembered that Chen Nuo had been kneading the tablecloth in front of him to relieve his nervousness because it was his first time discussing a commission with a client.

Thus, the incorrect observation results led Suzuki Sonoko to confirm her guess.

This little episode comes to an end for now.

When Chen Nuo finally returned to normal, he could finally stand up from his chair boldly, and immediately asked to go to the theater to investigate.

Director Motoki Kazuo was of course extremely happy.

After packing up, the group left the dojo and headed for the Mihua Art Troupe.

When putting on shoes at the entrance, Sasaki Hitomi deliberately fell behind and showed Chen Nuo a slow motion performance of stepping her silk feet into high heels.

But this little trick couldn't make Chen Nuo lose consciousness at all.

Of course, Chen Nuo was not naive enough to believe that Sasaki Hitomi had any special feelings for him and that was why she took the initiative to flirt with him. He had long seen that this woman was definitely trying to use this trick to confuse him as a detective so that she could get rid of suspicion.

Therefore, Chen Nuo would not have any sympathy towards Sasaki Hitomi.

How can such a frivolous woman be compared with the employees who work hard in the mines, never complain and do not ask for any salary?

It would be more appropriate if Xiaolan performed this set of moves.

Well---If Haibara Ai's small body was dressed in a rose skirt or something like that, I think it would be okay. The car stopped in front of the [Yukaka Art Theater] located in the center of Tokyo's commercial district.

Chen Nuo opened the car door and got out, looking at the building in front of him.

This troupe is actually not very famous. It has always been relatively well-known within the circle, but not well known by people outside the circle.

Until recently, a program on Mihua TV interviewed the troupe's leading actress, Miss Oide Shoko, and made her famous overnight.

At the same time, it also boosted the troupe's customer flow.

Therefore, although the location of this theater is quite good, the decoration is very ordinary and even a bit old.

Director Motoki led the group into the theater. When they arrived at the lobby, the staff were still setting up props on the stage, and several actors in casual clothes were walking around on the stage.

It was as if he was determining the stage position for the role he was playing.

The layout here is similar to the theaters I saw in movies and TV shows in my previous life.

There was a huge stage with thick red curtains on both sides. Since the show hadn't started yet, the lighting facilities on the ceiling made the hall as bright as day.

Opposite the stage were rows of chairs similar to those in a movie theater, and quite a few people were already sitting in the seats.

On the way, Chen Nuo heard from Director Benmu that in addition to inviting members from the theater troupe, this rehearsal also invited many people in the industry and reporters from the newspaper.

As soon as the director entered the hall, he started talking about finding a famous detective who was introduced by the famous detective Mouri Kogoro.

Everyone turned their eyes to him.

Chen Nuo put on a serious expression, trying to make himself look more like a detective.

Xiaolan also looked around carefully, as if she didn't want to embarrass her father, Kogoro Mouri.

Suzuki Sonoko, on the other hand, looked carefree, touching this and that, curious about everything. Chen Nuo was about to go backstage and pretend to check it out.

Suddenly he felt a sharp gaze locked on him.

He turned around and saw an unexpected person, Miwako Sato, in the crowd of people in the audience.

Miwako Sato is wearing a purple uniform skirt, which is the one that appears most frequently in the animation.

Her soft short black hair looked well-groomed, her face was lightly made up, and her lips were shiny.

Although she squinted her eyes and smiled, she exuded a strong sense of oppression.

It was hard to associate her outfit with the woman who was wearing a black kimono with red patterns, holding a red oil-paper umbrella in her hand, and having cute fox ears on her head on a rainy night.

However, this completely different temperament before and after actually enhances her charm a lot.

Some times.

Contrast is a woman’s best accessory.

Miwako Sato noticed that Chen Nuo was looking at her, so she changed her posture, crossed her legs together, her white bare feet heels slightly raised from the high heels, and smiled with squinted eyes.

Why is she here?

Chen Nuo was startled. He subconsciously thought that he had been exposed, but then he thought that this shouldn't be the case.

Haibara Ai carefully checked the signal transmitter that Sato Miwako had installed on him, and concluded that it had probably broken down when he was connected to the organization.

I guess he made that expression because he noticed that he looks a lot like Kudo Shinichi?

I don’t know whether she liked the little gift I gave her that day.

In fact, one of the gifts Chen Nuo liked very much in the store at that time was a fluffy fox tail.

But that tail requires a slot to use.

So I had to give up reluctantly.

Chen Nuo adjusted his mentality, put on a stern face, and ignored Sato Miwako's joyful expression as if she had seen her prey.

At this time, the director Motoki Kazuo's angry voice came from the stage: "What? You said Xiangzi hasn't come to act with you yet?

This damned woman, once she became famous, she immediately became arrogant. "

"There's nothing we can do about it. She's a big celebrity now." Nakayama Eiko, who had just changed into a maid costume, walked over and said sarcastically.

Chen Nuo's eyes fell on the woman. If he remembered correctly, the threatening letter was sent by Nakayama Eiko.

The reason was that she was jealous that Oide Shoko had taken her position as the heroine, and she used this method to take revenge.

"Eizi, please say less. The troupe is at a critical juncture right now and we have to unite." The male lead Yuichi Ueda, who was wearing a light gray suit and light makeup on his face, advised.

Nakayama Eiko said nothing more and turned away.

The director asked someone to go to the dressing room and ask Oide Shoko to come out and act with him.

Yumi Miyamoto pointed at the stage and said, "That guy is the leading actor of this troupe. How is it? Did you come here for nothing today? Is this boy your type?"

Miwako Sato's eyes fell on Chen Nuo who was talking to the director on the stage, and she smiled with narrowed eyes: "Yes,

It was an unexpected surprise for me, and I can’t wait any longer.”

As she spoke, she licked the corner of her lips.

Miyamoto Yumi was a little surprised by Sato Miwako's reaction.

Before, whenever Yumi Miyamoto took Miwako to a social gathering, she would either act very perfunctory or deliberately scare the target away.

But what happened to her today?

Is it really love at first sight? As expected, Miwako still likes boys younger than herself.

However, when Yumi Miyamoto saw the excited smile on Sato Miwako's face that lingered for a long time.

Instead, she frowned, thinking that she should keep an eye on her for a while so as not to scare the little boy away.

It's not easy to meet someone you like, so you have to seize this opportunity. It would be best if you take advantage of the social gathering next week to get them to confirm their relationship.

We've been dating for about a year and are planning to get married, and then have a cute baby -·—

Yumi Miyamoto felt that if she handled the situation well, she would be able to allow her good sister to have a happy family before the age of 30.

correct!

I'll secretly go to the bathroom and tell Aunt Sato the news. I'm sure she will be very happy.

Yumi Miyamoto was daydreaming and planning her own plan.

On the side, Sato Miwako had already started thinking about how to make Chen Nuo take off his clothes in a reasonable way.

If you can see a fresh scar on the back of the neck.

She could then take the risk of arresting him and conducting an interrogation investigation.

But now the show is about to begin.

If I go and cause trouble now, it might arouse suspicion from others.

Anyway, as an invited detective, Chen Nuotongzhi will leave here with the staff, so there is plenty of time, Sato Miwako thought.

After Chen Nuo finished discussing with the director, he pretended to check the stage.

Then the show began.

The hall suddenly became pitch black, and a cylindrical light on the stage guided the audience's attention into the story.

Chen Nuo also returned to his seat and waited patiently.

This play is actually quite ordinary, even a bit cliché, but it still moved Xiaolan so much that she started crying non-stop from the middle of the plot.

When the play reaches its climax, the hero and heroine take poison together and die.

Accompanied by melodious music, the lights gradually brightened.

The director was the first to rush onto the stage and gave high praise to Oide Shoko's performance.

But I found that she had been silent and was still playing the role of "corpse".

"You are too dedicated, Xiangzi? It's over." The director pushed Xiangzi's shoulder and he soon found out that Miss Xiangzi had really died of poisoning.

Screams echoed throughout the venue.

Miwako Sato was the first to rush forward, followed closely by Yumi Miyamoto.

Xiaolan seemed to be driven by some force and achieved the achievement of being the first to take out the phone to call the police today.
