Stay away from Conan

Chapter 523 Wise and enlightened

"I found this first!"

Miss Kyoko emphasized this point not to be outdone.

"Then I can only say I'm sorry...I'll take care of it soon."

Faced with Miss Kyoko's response, the young man just smiled indifferently and elegantly, then opened the comic book in his hand and began to read page by page at a very fast speed.

Seeing this, Miss Kyoko could only pouted, looking very depressed as the young man quickly finished flipping through the comics in his hand, and then his eyes couldn't help but turn to Gao Yuan, who was talking to the store manager at the counter -

It seemed just right. Miss Kyoko saw that Gao Yuan had finished talking to the store manager and seemed to have gained a lot.

So I couldn't help but seeing that Miss Kyoko was unable to read the comic content for the time being, she was ready to exchange the information she had gathered with Gao Yuan first, and then shouted to Gao Yuan:

"Mr. Wise!"

"What's the matter?"

Without waiting for Gao Yuan's response, the young man who was flipping through the comics suddenly put down the comic book in his hand and asked unexpectedly.

Slightly surprised, Miss Kyoko stared at the young man in front of her inexplicably, but then she saw the young man showing a slightly apologetic smile, and couldn't help but say:

"Oh, I'm so sorry, I misunderstood."

At this time, Gao Yuan, who heard Miss Kyoko's call, did not respond with words, but had already walked over. When he saw a handsome man standing next to Miss Kyoko, he felt a little surprised -

Especially when I saw that the man was still holding the comic book "The Girl Only Belongs to Me".

Before Gao Yuan could ask any questions, Miss Kyoko pulled Gao Yuan aside and asked in a low voice:

"Mr. Mingzhi, have you discovered anything?"

"Important discovery!"

In this regard, Gao Yuan couldn't help but nodded and affirmed:

"Mr. Hidden Hall has met Hazuki Yage before, and it was before when he was still working here!"

With that said, Gao Yuan began to tell Miss Kyoko the news he just heard from the store manager——

At that time, before Yin Tate Ousuke came to work in the store and almost all the cashier work was done by the store manager, Hazuki Yage was already a regular customer in the store.

Originally, as a customer who came to buy books every time, the store manager should not have a deep understanding of her. The most he could remember was her appearance.

After all, Ye Yue Yage is still a sensitive adolescent girl and will not take the initiative to talk to others.

However, as time went by, when the store manager noticed something strange, the girl Ye Yue Yage was unconsciously noticed by the store manager——

Because, in addition to buying books in the store, Ye Yue Yage also buys books in the store. And every time she bought the books, she eventually sold them all back to the store as they were.

Such strange behavior attracted the attention of the store manager, and at the same time, the store manager also began to notice the characteristics of every book she bought——

Every time I buy a variety of unrelated books.

It was the same behavior as when she borrowed books from the school library.

But the difference is that the teacher in charge of managing the library did not see her real preferences from the types of books she borrowed, but the professional store manager found out what she really liked from the books she bought every time. Book.

Based on this, one day when Ousuke Gindate started working in the store, the store manager was sorting out a batch of newly arrived books and saw one of the books. He felt that it should be very suitable for the girl's taste. Then he subconsciously mentioned it to Yin Tate Esuke.

So, when the girl came to buy a book one day, she happened to meet Ousuke Yindate at the cashier, and Ousuke Yintate happened to remember what the store manager said, so he recommended the book to the girl.

Since then, the girl has never been to the store again.

"So that's it... now it's almost certain why she chose to jump off the building..."

After listening to Gao Yuan's narration, combined with the situation analyzed previously, Miss Kyoko couldn't help but said with emotion:

"Furthermore, Mr. Esuke's encounter with this difficulty is not just due to bad luck!"

"yes……"

In this regard, Gao Yuan couldn't help but said helplessly, but before he finished speaking, he heard another person's voice ringing next to the two of them, interrupting Gao Yuan's words——

"So that's it. The girl who thought her thoughts had been read through had obviously chosen to avoid the man who might have seen through her thoughts and stopped coming to the store. But she didn't expect that man to show up in her school... This is... What a misfortune!”

Looking around, I saw that the man who was reading the comic book "The Girl Only Belongs to Me" was holding the comic book in his hand and standing beside the two of them, as if he had something to say. Said thoughtfully.

--"Who is this……"

Slightly surprised, Gao Yuan looked at the man who suddenly interrupted and asked Miss Kyoko with great surprise——

Just now, I just told the situation that I asked from the store manager, and did not explain the cause and effect of the whole thing. However, the other party directly explained the key logic of the whole thing. If he had not known it in advance, he would have It could only be that he knew it when he was chatting with Miss Kyoko just now——

In other words, maybe he is an acquaintance of Miss Kyoko?

So Gao Yuan couldn't help asking.

But faced with such a situation, Miss Kyoko also looked puzzled. At the same time, she looked at the man in front of her with wide eyes, as if she was still annoyed by the behavior of snatching the book from under her hand just now.

"Oh, sorry……"

Noticing that Miss Kyoko was glaring at him, the man gradually turned to the comic book he was holding in his hand. The man couldn't help but hand the book to Miss Kyoko and said politely and elegantly:

"I really have something to do and need to read the contents of this comic, so I'm a little rude... Now, please take it."

"oh--"

Still feeling a little depressed, Miss Kyoko took the comic book, responded slightly angrily, and then said to Gao Yuan:

"I don't know this guy."

"Why?"

Gao Yuan responded slightly strangely, and then asked the man curiously:

"Excuse me...are you a policeman?"

"Oh? Why do you ask?"

Hearing Gao Yuan's question, the man raised his eyebrows slightly and couldn't help asking with a slight smile.

"After all, the news did not mention the specific information of these two parties. It would be difficult for anyone else to know the details of Ye Yue Yage's matter so clearly except the police."

Gao Yuan replied.

"Then why can't I be like you?"

The man pushed up the glasses on his face, a trace of light reflected on the lenses, and then asked:

"You are not relatives of Ye Yue Yage, are you? And you are a detective who disguised your identity and came to ask the bookstore manager for information!"

"We accepted the commission of one of the two parties, while the other is still unconscious in the hospital and has not even been visited by relatives. How can we hire a detective to investigate?"

Gao Yuan explained.

"Yeah, that makes sense."

The man nodded lightly, and then introduced himself seriously to Gao Yuan and Kyoko:

"Hello everyone, my name is Akechi Kengo. As you said, I am indeed a police officer. My position is - Police Inspector of the Metropolitan Police Department."
