Conan: Another Famous Detective

The next day, nine o'clock in the morning.

Yu Gongming finally climbed out of bed reluctantly.

Yesterday, he was quite tired after helping Mengyu move for a day, so he couldn't help but sleep a little longer.

After walking out of the room, a scent penetrated his nose.

"Eh? This is...the smell of toasted bread?" Yu Gongming followed the scent to the kitchen, and happened to see Meng Yu open the oven and take out a plate of shiny whole wheat bread from it!

As if hearing the movement behind her, Meng Yu turned her head and smiled at Yu Gongming: "Are you getting up? Go and wash up. I'll heat up the milk and you can have breakfast!"

"Okay! Thank you for your hard work!" Yu Gongming smiled, immediately exited the kitchen and ran to the bathroom.

Not long after, the two of them sat at the dining table and enjoyed the breakfast made by Meng Yu.

"I didn't expect you to wake up so early! I remember today seems to be Saturday?" Yu Gongming asked casually.

Meng Yu showed a helpless smile: "Ah! Maybe it's because you have just moved to a new residence and you are not used to sleeping?"

She winked playfully at Yu Gongming: "Besides, after all, this is your territory, and I'm also worried about someone sneaking into my room while I'm sleeping!"

Yu Gongming immediately cried out: "How could I be such a person? If I really want to do something, it must be when you are awake... Ahem, what, I mean Mengyu, you are more beautiful today!"

"Yeah! I think so too!" Meng Yu smiled slightly and took back the slippers that had been placed on Yu Gongming's feet.

Yu Gongming coughed dryly again and said, "It's normal to not adapt to a new environment. You'll get used to it if you live in it for a few more days."

"I'll lend you some good words!" Meng Yu said with a smile.

After taking a sip of milk, Mengyu asked: "By the way, you told the doctor yesterday that you wanted to make bullets to practice shooting. Isn't this a joke?"

"Well! Of course not!" Yu Gongming said solemnly:

"After so many collisions with wineries and other underground forces, I deeply realized that not mastering firearms skills is really a disadvantage!"

"I don't say that it can reach the bug-level shooting skills of Mr. Akai, but at least it should have a certain long-distance strike capability."

"Then have you decided where to practice?" Mengyu asked.

"Well..." Yu Gongming frowned. He had actually been thinking about this issue.

But things like gun training are okay in the United States, which does not ban guns. In Japan, except for armed forces bases such as police academies, there is no place where you can legally practice guns.

It can almost be ruled out in the city. Even if it is some abandoned building or construction site, there is no guarantee that a homeless person, some adventurous child, or someone else will happen to pass by.

Therefore, if you really want to practice shooting, you can only go to the suburbs or even the wilderness.

However, if you want to achieve results as soon as possible when it comes to practicing guns, you must practice regularly.

But if you go to the wilderness, it will take several hours just to drive back and forth every day, not to mention the time to practice in between.

After all this trouble, Yu Gongming basically didn't have to do anything else that day.

Moreover, they had just come into contact with Belmode. He didn’t know what information he had obtained from them, and he didn’t know what he would be investigating secretly.

They go to the wilderness every day, far away from the city, and it is difficult to get back in time if something happens.

Therefore, Yu Gongming also had a headache as to where to find a place to practice shooting.

"It is best that this place is nearby, and there is no possibility of anyone disturbing it. It is best that it is remote enough that at least the gunfire filtered by the silencer will not make people nearby suspicious."

Mengyu listed a lot of conditions, then shook his head slightly: "I haven't thought of a suitable place in this area for the time being..."

Yu Gongming sighed with some distress: "Forget it, it will take a while for the doctor to make the bullet. Let's look for it slowly first. There will always be a suitable place."

"I hope so." Mengyu was also a little helpless.

Not long after, the two of them finished their breakfast, Mengyu started to clear away the tableware, and Yu Gongming left the living room after saying hello, and went to the office downstairs, ready to open for business.

Opening the door, Yu Gongming took out a broom, dustpan and other cleaning tools from behind the door and began to clean the office simply.

After all, I had been away from home for several days, and the office had accumulated some dust. It was very rude to entertain guests like this.

After a while, Mengyu also came down.

"Shall I help too?" Meng Yu walked into the office and looked for cleaning tools.

Yu Gongming waved his hand: "No, just sweep it and wipe the dust."

"Well... there's nothing to do anyway, so I'll just help boil the water. I'll have to make tea for the client when he comes later!" Meng Yu said with a smile.

After hearing this, Yu Gongming didn't refuse anymore. Considering the relationship between the two of them, it would be too pretentious to be polite.

The two of them were busy for a while, and Yu Gongming finally changed the sign at the door to open.

Yu Gongming sat down on the office chair: "Okay, now we just wait for the client to come!"

Meng Yu looked at Yu Gongming curiously: "You just sit there like this when there is no client?"

"Of course not!" Yu Gongming pointed to a row of bookshelves on the side: "There are some books, magazines and other reading materials there. When I have nothing to do, I will occasionally flip through them to pass the time."

"I see. It seems like you were quite bored while waiting for the client to come to your door!" Meng Yu nodded clearly.

Akira Yumiya shrugged: "We just experienced such an exciting thing the night before, and I quite enjoy this [boring] now."

"When a request comes to me, or something happens to Conan, I won't be able to take any time off!"

"That's true." Meng Yu nodded in agreement.

"Um...excuse me!" A voice interrupted the conversation between the two.

"Huh?" Meng Yu and Yu Gongming looked at the door at the same time.

I saw a middle-aged man with a stocky face looking at the two people in the room.

"Isn't this Uncle Ohara?" Yu Gongming said in surprise.

"Eh? Do you know him?" Meng Yu asked doubtfully.

"He is the manager of the convenience store downstairs from my house! Have you never seen him after coming here so many times?" Yu Gongming asked doubtfully.

Store manager Ohara chuckled: "I guess this little girl's heart is set on you. How can she pay attention to an ordinary uncle like me?"

Meng Yu's pretty face turned red when she heard this, looking embarrassed.

The store manager said this, obviously he had met her more than once and knew about her relationship with Akira Hanamiya, but he had no impression of her at all...

Seeing Mengyu's reaction, Store Manager Ohara waved his hand nonchalantly: "Don't mind, little girl, I was just joking!"

"The store manager rarely comes to my place! What kind of wind brought you here today? Please come in!" Yu Gongming stood up and greeted him.
