Conan: Someone is always trying to murder me

"Has he been discovered?"

Kishida frowned and muttered softly as he saw Akai Shuichi glance in his direction and then get off the bus without looking back.

Now he was really confused. Logically, so many people got on the bus one after another, and so many people's eyes were focused, but he was discovered just by occasionally looking at him with the corner of his eye?

Is this the world of the strong?

Kishida smacked his lips and was amazed.

However, what he didn't know was that while he was puzzled, Akai Shuichi, who was walking in the rain with an umbrella, was also frowning and thinking hard.

Who was watching him from behind in the car just now? Why did he have an ominous premonition as if he was on a thorn? And the familiar smell in the car, could it be someone from the organization?

But I don't know the people behind me. No, the intelligence said that the woman has come here, so maybe one of the people behind me is her...

The figure that just passed by flashed in my mind, and Shuichi Akai relaxed his brows and gradually walked forward...

"Boss, what are you mumbling?"

Akimi's curious voice came from the phone.

Because the thunder was too loud, and Kishida was mumbling in a low voice, she and Saki Nishitani couldn't hear what Kishida was saying.

"I'm talking, it's raining so hard, we didn't bring an umbrella, but we have to get off the next bus, what should we do?"

Kishida looked out the window, and the thick raindrops fell, hitting the glass window, and the rain was getting heavier. He looked out through the glass window, and it seemed that there was an extremely wide bead curtain hanging between the sky and the earth, and it was hazy, and he couldn't help but look worried.

It looks like the rain won't stop so soon...

"Well, how about asking Saki to pick you up at the bus stop? Anyway, there aren't many customers now, I can handle it by myself."

Amei suggested, who was concentrating on putting equal amounts of instant whole-grain cereal, nuts, raisins and other dried fruits into a small bowl, intending to make a dessert platter.

"Hey, why don't you pick us up, senior?"

Kishida was a little puzzled when he heard this. Forget about yourself, but you don't even come to pick up your sister in person? What about the relationship between you two sisters, Miyano?

"......."

Saki Nishitani, who was about to agree and get an umbrella, paused.

Hearing what the boss said, why did he feel that he disliked me?

"Because I still have desserts on hand that I haven't finished yet!"

Amei explained slowly.

"Oh, well, in that case, Nishitani will trouble you."

Kishida replied indifferently. He just asked casually just now.

This reluctant tone really showed that he was disliked.

For a moment, Saki Nishitani shut herself up.

No, rather than saying that she was disliked, it was better to say that the boss wanted Chinami to pick him up. Could it be that the boss really had an affair with Chinami, or was it true what the boss said during the interview yesterday, that he liked Chinami and was pursuing her now?

After just a moment of shutting up, Saki Nishitani began to imagine.

Then, she felt that she understood!

In this case...

"Saki, what are you doing? Go get an umbrella to pick up the boss."

Without hearing Saki Nishitani's hurried footsteps gradually leaving the kitchen, Mingmei didn't even look back, and seriously added a little more dark chocolate sauce to the dessert platter.

"But, but I still have to wait for the dessert in the oven to be baked!"

Saki Nishitani rolled her eyes and said in a pretended embarrassment.

"Little fool, am I still here?"

Hearing this, Mingmei turned her head with amusement and anger, and rolled her eyes at Saki Nishitani.

That makes sense. I didn't even think of this. Ah~

Nishiya Saki, who almost cried because of her own stupidity, racked her brains and tried to find another reason to persuade Mingmei.

"Puchi, you don't want to go out, do you?"

Seeing Nishitani Saki's silly look, but hesitating and unable to speak, Mingmei burst out laughing, and then said unhappily.

"Yeah!"

Nishiya Saki nodded pitifully.

"Want to take advantage of this time to practice more?"

Mingmei suddenly thought of something and suddenly realized it.

"Yeah!"

Nishiya Saki's eyes lit up and nodded repeatedly.

Chinami sister is smarter than herself. Look, she even thought of a reason for herself so quickly!

"Oh, really, well, I'll go pick up the boss and the others, then I'll leave this to you."

After a sigh, Mingmei smiled at Nishitani Saki.

Seeing that her juniors were so passionate about making desserts, she was quite pleased.

"Thank you, Chinami-san. Go wash your hands first. I'll go to the storage room to get an umbrella now."

Seeing Mingmei nod in agreement, Nishitani Saki was excited and ran to the storage room with her long legs.

"........Hey, run slower."

Is this necessary?

Mingmei blinked her big eyes and looked confused.

"Senior, do you think I should fire Nishitani? Is it so uncomfortable for her to come to pick me up?"

Kishida, who had been silent the whole time, complained jokingly.

He felt that he was being disliked.

"Haha, she is just a little fool, who only wants to improve her craft, so she will repeatedly refuse such a good opportunity to flatter the boss in the workplace. Alas, it's because you are kind-hearted, you only joke around, and don't really care about these things."

Amei smiled.

"Tsk, it seems that you are more experienced! You are so good at flattering people, don't worry, I'm just joking."

Kishida rolled his eyes and said unhappily.

And if it was a stingy boss who really cared about these things, he would probably just pretend to be generous and laugh it off when he heard her say that.

"Hehe, after all, the senior sister is not like you, the junior brother. The senior sister is just a small low-level employee, so if you want to survive, you must learn more about these things."

Amei teased herself.

"Hehe, it seems that now that there is a good boss like me, your experience may not be useful. So why not be a free little fool like Nishitani in the future?"

Kishida suggested with a chuckle.

"Then I do hope so~"

Akimi, who heard Kishida's hidden meaning, smiled.

"Ah~ sneeze~ Ah~ sneeze~"

At this time, Saki Nishitani in the storage room couldn't help but sneeze twice in a row.

"Who is talking about me? Did the boss know my good intentions?"

Looking at the umbrellas in front of her, Saki Nishitani smiled, not knowing whether the boss would give her a raise for her good intentions.

Well, no, Saki, you can't be so frivolous, you are doing this just to repay the boss for his help last time.

Well, that's it! Of course, if the boss gives her a raise, she won't mind, hehe~

While thinking happily, Saki Nishitani, who didn't know that she had been joked by the boss and said she was going to be fired, took out a children's umbrella and a slightly larger umbrella from the umbrellas, and then walked out of the storage room without looking back.

"Why did you only take two umbrellas, and you took a children's umbrella?"

At the door of the store, Mingmei, who had washed her hands, asked curiously after taking the umbrella.

"It's just the boss and Xiao Ai, right? A children's umbrella and a big umbrella should be enough, right?"

Saki Nishitani blinked and asked in confusion.

"Well, that's right, okay, I'm going out!"

Mingmei nodded without feeling anything wrong, and didn't ask for an extra umbrella.

OK, men and women are close to each other's shoulders in the rain, walking with umbrellas, romantic, perfect!

Boss, I can only help you here, I hope you can seize the opportunity!

Looking at Mingmei holding an umbrella and gradually going away, Saki Nishitani clenched her fists happily.
