The two of them were very close, and the two of them were very close.

"Haha, it turns out it was a misunderstanding."

Kudo Shinichi was holding a freshly baked bun on his head, scratching his head awkwardly.

There was no way, as long as it involved Xiaolan and love, the detective's brain began to work, far from being as sharp as usual.

"Really, apologize to me, Shinichi."

Mouri Ran crossed her arms.

Kudo Shinichi spoke without any emotional intelligence, "But what she wore was too suspicious, and even if it wasn't a case of adultery, it was..."

"You still say that!" Eriri was threatening, wishing she could rush up and beat him up.

"Kudo-kun." Arthur's eyes fixed, "No matter what, you shouldn't speculate and judge a lady."

"..." Kudo Shinichi was speechless. He was used to being a detective, and it was easy to offend people when he spoke.

"I'm sorry." Kudo Shinichi clasped his hands together. After truly realizing his mistake, he was still very sincere.

However, Kudo Shinichi continued to observe Arthur. This guy was definitely not an ordinary person. Just now, his momentum almost made him breathless!

"So you are not boyfriend and girlfriend." Suzuki Sonoko was also relieved. You know why she was in tears just now. Why is every handsome guy she likes either taken or a scumbag?

"No."

Arthur was very honest and didn't see that Eriri's cheeks next to him had bulged.

"So does Arthur-kun have a girlfriend?"

"I..."

Eriri stood up directly, "I'm going to the bathroom."

Then she walked out angrily.

Arthur was left to gently deal with Suzuki Sonoko's seemingly endless questions, but the blond young man had a really good temper. Even though Sonoko's chatterbox annoyed Kudo Shinichi, he still patiently answered them one by one, and would only avoid those who didn't want to answer.

Suddenly, Arthur stood up and smiled at the three Kudos: "Eri hasn't come back yet, I'll go ask."

The young man turned his face away and suddenly became cold.

There was a strong smell of blood, and he heard someone fall just now.

Arthur walked straight to the bathroom and whispered: "Eri, are you okay?"

No one answered.

Arthur opened the door directly, and the blond girl's face turned pale, and she fell to the ground, huddled in the corner, pointing at the opposite side in horror.

A large amount of blood seeped out from the gap under the cubicle door, dyeing half of the corridor bright red.

"Eriri."

Arthur strode over and half-supported Eriri: "It's okay, Eriri."

"Arthur, there..." Eriri's body was still shaking, her voice was almost dry, and she subconsciously leaned into Arthur's arms.

It would be too inhumane to avoid it now.

Thinking of this, Arthur avoided the sensitive parts, gently used his arms to hold Eriri horizontally.

"Anyway, leave first." She couldn't bear any more shock.

He gently placed the girl on the chair, brewed a cup of hot tea for her to hold, and after making sure that her emotions were stable, Arthur said to Kudo Shinichi who was staring at them curiously:

"Call the police, someone is dead."

"What——"

The police came soon, and the short and fat police officer with a yellow hat was speechless: "Why are you here again, brother Kudo."

"This is the case calling the detective." Kudo Shinichi laughed dryly.

"It's him. I was wondering why he looked familiar. It's the famous high school detective Kudo Shinichi!"

"Oh my god, there's a murder. When can we leave?"

The women around were whispering. Although they heard that someone had died, they hadn't seen it with their own eyes. They all felt that it had nothing to do with them and didn't feel anything.

"Ahem." Officer Megure coughed twice. "Once we understand the case and confirm that you are not a suspect, you can leave."

At this time, Kudo Shinichi had already run to the crime scene to investigate. The police around were not surprised.

"Is this Miss Sawamura the first person to discover the body?" Officer Megure looked at Eriri, and then his sight was blocked.

The blond young man kept a warm smile and said in an unquestionable tone: "She was just scared. Now is not the time for her to recall."

It should be against the rules. Officer Megure subconsciously shrank his neck and didn't continue to speak.

"It's okay, I've calmed down." After taking a few sips of hot tea, she was no longer so scared. Eriri sniffed, her nose tip was a little red, and her blue eyes were moist. "Ask if you want to."

"Excuse me, when did Ms. Sawamura find the blood? Did you hear anything?

Noise? I estimate you stayed in the bathroom for 3 minutes. What were you doing? "

Kudo Shinichi came over, and Officer Megure's mouth twitched, but he didn't stop him.

"The blood was found just now, and there was no sound... "Eri thought, "As for what you said I did, I didn't go in before, I was washing my face at the sink."

Originally, she left in a rage. Eriri just washed her face at the sink and then was in a daze for a while.

The sink and the bathroom are separated. Eriri, who was embarrassed and annoyed before, didn't pay any attention to the back.

"As for the rest..." Eriri's pupils shrank, and the terrible scene appeared in her mind again, "It's what you saw."

Eri obviously didn't want to talk anymore. Kudo Shinichi wanted to ask a few more questions, but was blocked by Arthur, who was smiling but powerful, and felt the same treatment from Officer Megure.

Officer Megure patted Kudo Shinichi on the shoulder: "I understand you, brother Kudo, it's just like facing an angry boss. "I have no intention of resisting at all."

Kudo Shinichi remained silent, his sharp eyes seemed to be able to penetrate a person.

"By the way, Arthur." Kudo Shinichi suddenly asked, "Why did you call the police directly and say that someone was dead?"

"Although there was blood, there was no body, and it is possible that someone is not dead, right?"

Everyone was suspicious at once, but it was hard to believe. After all, the temperament of the blond young man was too noble. He didn't look like a murderer at all, but a prince of some country.

"Because there is no heartbeat. "Arthur replied calmly.

Hey, how sharp do your senses have to be to hear the heartbeat?

Kudo Shinichi didn't quite believe it, but the existing evidence showed that Arthur was not the murderer.

Kudo Shinichi didn't notice that the golden-haired girl who had buried her head just now raised her head, with surprise in her eyes, but she didn't say a word.

Fortunately, this case is not complicated. After sorting out the alibi, the murderer soon burst into tears under Kudo Shinichi's reasoning, accusing the victim of betraying their friendship and stealing her boyfriend.

"That woman stole Shunsuke and didn't cherish him!" The woman with messy makeup gritted her teeth, "Now she's targeting Arthur again. She's been peeping here recently. I can't let that bitch succeed. That's why I decided to kill her here. ”

Arthur who was cueed:?

Arthur didn’t know that there was something about him inside, so he could only smile helplessly.

Then the murderer was handcuffed and taken away by the police. After this incident, those young girls no longer had the mood to look at handsome guys, and all left, leaving only the store manager who wanted to cry but had no tears.

“What is this all about!” The store manager was speechless.

“Sorry, store manager, it seems that I am also responsible for this.” Arthur apologized gently.

“Nothing!” The store manager was open-minded about this, “It has nothing to do with you, don’t take it to heart.” And without Arthur, how could his coffee shop have so many customers.

“Arthur, I’ll see you next time!”

This is Suzuki Sonoko who was still unwilling to give up before leaving.

“Let’s go!” Kudo Shinichi urged impatiently.

After the three Kudos left, there were even fewer people in the store, and only Eriri was left.

“I’m leaving too. "

I wanted to ask something, but I didn't ask it in the end. Eriri, who had lost her parents, was carrying her backpack with a gloomy look.

Looking at her lonely back, Arthur asked the manager: "There are not many people now, can I leave early?"

"Go ahead." The bearded manager looked at the backs of the two and said, "This is youth."

Arthur chased after them in two or three steps: "I'll take you home, Eriri."

As a knight, he shouldn't let a girl who has just experienced a shock go back alone.

Eriri didn't refuse.

Along the way, Eriri grabbed her shoulder strap and she was hesitant.

"Hey, Arthur."

"Hmm?"

The blond young man beside him turned his face to the side, and his three-dimensional facial features looked softer in the sunset.

"I want to ask you a question."

Without waiting for Arthur to answer, she took a deep breath and asked.

"Why don't you have a heartbeat? "

The time she was rescued, and this time, Eriri finally remembered the incongruity.

She was leaning against Arthur's chest, but she never heard the dull and powerful heartbeat.

This proves... the young man in front of her is wearing a human-like skin, but he is definitely not human.

Arthur, who are you?
