Chapter 100 Black Envelope
Tomoaki Aride, who is currently the doctor working at Teitan High School, is actually disguised as Vermouth.

The purpose is to get close to Xiaolan, so as to investigate through this relationship whether Kudo Shinichi is really dead.

As for why Judy Stelling, who is also a member of the FBI like Akai Shuichi, also appeared at Teitan High School as an English teacher…

Of course, I came here to investigate Vermouth.

It can be said that the FBI’s plan for Vermouth to disguise herself as Dr. Shinde was part of their plan.

About a week ago, Judy, who guessed that Vermouth would kill Tomoaki Aride and stole his identity, set up the plan in advance and found two colleagues to create the illusion that the Aride family’s car fell into the sea while traveling.

Vermouth, who witnessed the incident with her own eyes, naturally fell into the trap, so two days later, she came to Teitan High School as the school doctor under the identity of Tomoaki Aida.

But is this really the case?
Would someone as smart as Vermouth really fall into the trap set by the FBI so easily?

Xia He sat in the back seat of the police car, looked at “Anishida Tomoaki” who was standing in front of the tunnel and also looking at him, and then revealed a meaningful smile.

……

Naturally, the weekend skiing plans were cancelled because of this sudden accident.

Ayumi, Genta, and Mitsuhiko, the three little kids, were all reluctantly driven back home by Dr. Agasa.

Xia He took Haibara Ai and Conan to the police station to take their statements, and then took the two of them back to his own residence.

“You guys can just stay at my house tonight.”

After saying that, he threw the quilt and pillow to Conan and Ai who were sitting on the sofa in the living room. Xia He first turned on the heater in the house, and then walked into his own room.

It was originally agreed that they would spend the night at the ski resort, so in order not to worry Xiaolan, Conan was happy to spend the night at Xia He’s house.

As for Haibara Ai…she had just been frightened and was still feeling rather insecure, so she naturally didn’t want to leave Xia He’s side.

Well, with someone she trusts nearby, Xiao Ai, who had just covered herself with the quilt, quickly fell asleep.

……

The next morning.

The fragrance woke the two little ones from their dreams.

On the sofa on the left, Haibara Ai sat up straight like a zombie.

Conan, who was sitting on the sofa on the right, fell directly to the ground while turning over.

“Ah, it hurts…”

Conan hugged his big head and began to groan.

Not a moment later.

The three of them sat at the dining table and ate the Chinese breakfast made by Xia He himself.

Steamed buns, fried dough sticks, and tea eggs.

Pair it with hot soy milk.

Conan and Ai, who have already eaten many times under Xia He’s influence, are naturally having a great time showing off.

“Yesterday at 707 o’clock in the morning, in Mihua Town, three armed gangsters hijacked bus No. W, took the passengers on the bus as hostages, and demanded that the police release their accomplices who were imprisoned. Later, the police confirmed that these three people were members of the criminal gang that attacked the jewelry store with a bomb half a month ago…”

On TV, the morning news began to report what happened to them on the bus yesterday.

There is no doubt that Xia He’s name and photo appeared on the screen again, and under the host’s exaggeration, he was successfully crowned the new savior of the Japanese police.

As for the original savior…

Because he has not appeared in public for too long, his popularity has gradually begun to decline, and there is a tendency that he will soon be replaced.

“Damn it, even the title has been taken away…” Conan said gritting his teeth.

“As far as I know, Xia He studied in the United States a few years ago, right?” Huiyuan Ai held the glass and blew away the hot steam. “If he had stayed in Japan, you might not have gotten the title.”

Conan: “.”

“Don’t listen to her. She’s just angry that you left her and ran away yesterday.” Xia He said.

“I was busy evacuating the passengers. Besides, with you here, I don’t have to worry about Haibara’s safety.” Conan explained, “But there is one thing I hope you can remember, the ‘Sherlock Holmes of the Heisei Era’ can only be me!” As he spoke, he imitated Sherlock Holmes, clasped his hands together and rested them on his chin.

But the next second.

“Wang!”

Meatball, who was lying under the table, suddenly screamed, and he was so scared that he almost knocked the buns in the bowl out.

“Is this Sherlock Holmes?” Xia He and Xiao Ai looked at each other and couldn’t help laughing at the same time.

“Ahem!” Conan coughed, squatted down awkwardly, and gently stroked Rouwan’s hair, “Rouwan, have you missed me recently?”

“Wang Wang!”

……

“Spring and summer milk tea is the best milk tea in Japan. It is delicious, has lots of fruit, and tastes great. Even if you buy it in autumn and winter, you can still heat it up and drink it~~”

The TV in front of the milk tea shop was playing an advertisement endorsed by Yoko Okino.

Xia He and Nakatsuru Hirota sat in an air-conditioned room, each holding a large cup of milk tea with ice and coconut, staring out the window with lifeless eyes.

No, it was snowing yesterday. Does that mean it’s summer again today?

The key is……

No one was surprised at this kind of weather.

It really made Xia He feel a little uncomfortable.

“Uncle Kuantai, how is the milk tea shop business recently?” After a while, Xia He, who had almost drunk half of the milk tea, suddenly asked.

He handed over all eight chain stores in Beika-cho to Hirota Nakatsuru for management.

Although each store has a store manager, all accounts still need to go through Nakatsuru Hirota.

“It’s pretty good. The total sales last month alone reached 27 million yen.” Nakatsuru Hirota said.

The milk tea industry has just emerged in Japan, and with the star effect of Yoko Okino, it was within Xia He’s expectations that the monthly turnover could be so high.

“We made a lot of money. I think we should find a place to have a pool party or something this weekend to celebrate. We can invite Xiaolan and Conan…”

Forget it, Conan, stop shouting.

To prevent another murder from happening later.

he thought to himself.

Although the probability of triggering a mission would be much higher when a murder occurred, Xia Hexian really didn’t care about it so far.

After all… he already has enough life skills.

Therefore, his current attitude towards system tasks is to just go with the flow.

……

After having a big dinner outside with Hirota Nakatsuru, it was already eight o’clock in the evening when we got home.

As soon as Xia He pushed the door open and walked into the yard, he saw a half-open black envelope stuck in his mailbox.

He reached out and took out the letter, only to see five big white characters written on it: “Jiuniang Xiaheqi”.

There was no stamp and no sender’s name.

Seeing this, Xia He opened the letter in confusion and took a look at the contents: “I admire your wisdom, so I wrote to invite you to dinner and drinks at my house.

-The Vision of God’s Forsaken Son”

What kind of chuunibyou signature is this?

He twitched the corner of his mouth speechlessly.

Just as he was about to crumple the letter, suddenly, a check for two million dollars fell out of the envelope.
