Chapter 25
Ono Satoshi of the detective agency
explained this. After hearing this, Daterui apologized again and told Maori Ran about the direction Edogawa Conan went.
"Huh -" Mao Lilan let out a long sigh and helplessness when she saw the direction where Ida Liuyi's hand was still pointing, "It's true for Conan, why didn't she say a word when she left?"
"Liu Yi, do you want Ono to let me go? " Sir, take you to the living room to rest for a while. I will bring Conan to you later, or you and I will go look for Conan."
Mao Lilan was still worried about what to do, she thought about Mao Li Kogoro. Bian was still dealing with the commission, and Edogawa Conan didn't know what to do over there. She was worried about leaving Ida Liuyi alone, so Mao Lilan had no choice but to bend down and ask Ida Liuyi for her opinion.
Ida Liuyi raised his head and answered the other party's words seriously in order not to cause trouble to Mao Lilan: "I can follow Uncle Ono to the living room to wait for you. If Sister Xiaolan finds Conan, come over quickly. I won't mess up. Let's go."
In order to confirm her words, Ida Liuyi never acted strangely. Mao Lilan did not continue to ask after hearing what Liu Yi said. She asked Ono Satoshi and hoped that he could take Ida Liuyi to the living room. , and told Idarui to wait for her in the living room.
"Then Liuyi should be obedient and wait for me in the living room. I will be here soon." Mao Lilan said while rubbing the head of little Liuyi.
After Ida Liuyi nodded in agreement with the other party's words, when following Ono Satoshi to the living room, Liuyi glanced at Mao Lilan who was running against her.
"Then let's go, kid."
Onochi called Idarui's attention, and then took her to the living room and prepared some food.
Before Onochi left, he said to Idarui, who was sitting quietly and motionless: "Then, kid, please play here alone for a while, and be careful not to move anything in the house, otherwise ..."
"Otherwise?"
Ida Liuyi didn't understand the meaning of Onochi's words, but after hearing Liuyi's question, Onochi pretended to be scary, "There will be something like in urban legends. The monsters come to eat some misbehaved and disobedient children, and the legendary long-haired halflings will stare at the mischievous children together with the monsters. " Ida Rui is being attacked by Onochi
."
The gloomy words frightened her. She could feel a chill running down her back because of those words. She didn't dare to move and stayed in her position. Likewise, she didn't dare to make any sound.
Ono Satoshi saw Date Rui's reaction and laughed mercilessly in front of Rui. Before leaving, he turned on all the lights in the room, and even gave a special 'instruction' to Idarui who was sitting in a frightened position before leaving.
"Then, kid, you have to stay indoors and wait for your sister to come back. Don't go anywhere." Satoshi Ono said while shaking his index finger to make the 'no' sign. Perhaps out of teasing intentions, he I just love seeing children behave like this.
Idarui watched Onochi leave, and until he closed the door, Idarui did not speak, but tightly covered her mouth.
Although Ono Satoshi turned on the lights in the room, it looked much brighter when Idarui first came. However, she still felt eerie, especially the two enshrined statues on the wall opposite the door. Their faces were strange, like some kind of animal transformed into a human-like species.
Idarui always felt that they were looking at her, and now she was in no mood to care about the food on the table or still maintain the curiosity of a child to get up and explore the items in the house.
She kept the words of Ono Satoshi and Mao Lilan in mind and did not dare to move, but she noticed that there seemed to be something on the ceiling that could not be seen clearly.
She originally wanted to focus on seeing what it was, but when people's shadows and voices appeared outside, Ida Liuyi shifted her gaze seriously and directly and stared at the door of the living room.
In the end, Idarui didn't speak until the figure stopped.
"Ara, it looks like there is someone in the house."
"Huh? Could it be that Mr. Mihara has prepared it in advance?"
Those were the voices of two men that Idarui had never heard before.
She blinked. Are they the "monsters" and "long-haired halflings" that Satoshi Ono mentioned before leaving?
No, that shadow looks like an ordinary human being.
Idarui shook his head, trying to forget the extremely terrifying words Ono Satoshi said before leaving.
She stood up and quietly walked to the corner by the door. No one outside seemed to have any intention of coming in. Ida Liuyi secretly watched the situation outside, as if she was ready to run away if there was any accident outside.
"What are you two doing here?"
Idarui heard the voice coming from far away and seemed to be Mihara Tsubasa, the eldest son of the Mihara family.
He was walking away this way. The two people outside the door seemed to be very familiar with him. Mihara Tsubasa's footsteps were getting closer and closer. Then Idarui heard him say in a questioning tone: "Edogawa Sir, Mr. Nakajima, please... is there anyone inside?"
When Mihara Tsubasa opened the door, he saw Idarui standing helplessly beside the door, and Ono Satoshi had prepared it for Idarui on the table. Refreshments and water.
"Yes... I'm sorry."
Idarui said subconsciously.
"You..." Daterui didn't expect Mihara Tsubasa who was standing in front of him. After seeing Daterui and the situation in the house, the smile on his face froze for a moment, but Mihara Tsubasa didn't want to express his feelings in front of the guests. What should he reveal? He could only take into account the faces of the two guests behind him and said tremblingly. "Kid, why are you staying here alone? Where are your sister and brother?"
Mihara Tsubasa looked around. He knew that Mouri Kogoro was talking to Master Mihara in the main room, and even his sister Mihara Chika and him I just watched Mihara Chika's follower Ono Tomoya leave this house and head towards the main house.
However, when he saw that Mouri Kogoro's daughter and the little boy wearing glasses were not here, he thought that Daterui had entered by mistake or was temporarily arranged here by Ono Satoshi. However, Mihara Tsubasa was a little angry because Ono Satoshi would not be there. Knowing that he would have to use the living room this afternoon.
He couldn't vent his anger on another guest in front of the guest, not even a child.
Mihara Tsubasa could only send Idarui out of here temporarily, and he could not miss the opportunity to discuss anything with the people at the detective agency.
"I...I'm sorry, it was Uncle Ono who brought me here to wait for them temporarily." Idarui stumbled and said after hearing Ono Satoshi's words, but she heard Mihara Tsubasa seem to call the person behind him " Mr. Edogawa" and "Mr. Nakajima".
Idarui wanted to see their faces clearly, but Mihara Tsubasa kept blocking her view. She thought that Mr. Edogawa probably had the same surname.
"..."
Mihara Tsubasa did not listen to Idarui's words seriously. His main purpose now was not to pay attention to her. He hoped to show off in front of Master Mihara, so Mihara Tsubasa said: "Kid, I I have something to discuss with these two uncles. Could you please go outside and have some fun first? "
"Yes... yes, I understand, uncle, I'm going out now!" Ida Liuyi said after hearing this. She didn't refuse. She nodded and wanted to leave the house. She looked up and saw that the two people standing in front of the door didn't look like uncles at all. They were extremely young.
But Idarui couldn't help but see the black-haired man wearing a hat looking through her, and the hair on Idarui's body stood up.
It turned out that the cold feeling on her back was not sudden.
"Be careful." The boy with white highlights and black highlights said with concern in his tone to Idarui who was about to leave the house. He was afraid that Idarui would fall down because he left in a hurry.
Idarui came to a place not far from the living room where Mihara Tsubasa and others could not see her. Because of Maorilan's agreement to let her wait in the living room, Idarui was afraid of Maorilan and Edogawa Conan. Therefore, the two of them could not find her and stayed here. As long as she could see each other immediately, there would be no accident.
But before she left the living room, she vaguely heard Mihara Tsubasa mention the name "Mr. Dazai" to the two people, and the brother wearing the hat said "boring", "too simple", "you can see it at a glance" You see, I have to go to the detective agency before dinner."
It seems that he rejected Mihara Tsubasa's proposal.
But when she focused her attention seriously on the passages on both sides of the living room, Mihara Tsubasa had already led the two people into the house.
"Sorry, Liui kept you waiting for so long." Mao Lilan panted and led Edogawa Conan through the path to Ida Liui. She was sweating all over, while Ida Liui was squatting. I was bored by the pond watching the small fish swimming in the pool.
Mao Lilan said to Ida Liuyi apologetically, and then looked around, "Aren't you waiting for us in the living room?"
Ida Liuyi shook her head, she looked at the two people in front of her and said, "No, because Uncle Tsubasa Mihara invited his two brothers to come to the living room to talk about something, so I came out, but..."
"I heard their names seemed to be Mr. Edogawa and Mr. Nakajima, and the ones who hadn't arrived yet. Mr. Dazai, maybe that Edogawa-san and Edogawa-san just have the same last name," Idarui said with a wink.
Because her words attracted Edogawa Conan's attention, he did not expect Daterui to hear the other person's last name, but Edogawa Conan would also have questions.
Edogawa Conan asked Daterui again for confirmation: "Did you hear anything else? Could it be that you heard it wrong, or maybe you didn't hear these names?"
I didn't expect Daterui to hear it. Hearing Conan's words, he shook his head seriously and said: "I heard it right, because Uncle Mihara had seen the last names of the two brothers before coming in, so I won't hear it wrong."
Conan couldn't help but look at Ida Rui I thought a lot and guessed that the two brothers Idarui mentioned might be people from the Yokohama Detective Agency.
