When it was Xiao Lan's turn to ask a question, she asked curiously,""Ye Fan, why don't you join the club activities? I heard that several classmates invited you to join the club, but you rejected them all.”
The reason why Ye Fan came to Imperial Pill High School was for Xiaolan and Yuan Zi. He had no interest in the high school club at all. He would rather go to Kabukicho to accompany the lonely girls in the shop than participate in the school club activities.
This kind of true thought, not only could Ye Fan not say it now, he could not say it in the future either.
Ye Fan thought for a moment and immediately made up a reason.
"I've been living alone most of the time since I was young. I don't have many friends, so I'm used to being alone. If I were to join a club, I would always feel like I would be out of place with the other students. I would not be used to it. Instead of making himself feel at a loss, it was better not to participate.”
Yuan Zi held up her finger and pressed it against her chin. She said understandingly,""That's right. Ye Fan's parents are very busy with work. It's not strange for them to have such thoughts.”
Xiao Lan nodded in agreement." I understand. When I was young, I would have the same feeling when I saw my classmates 'mothers coming to pick up their classmates on rainy days.”
Yuanzi was born into a family of tycoons. Her parents were busy with work and did not have much time to accompany her. As for Xiaolan's parents, they were living separately. Xiaolan not only had to play the role of a daughter, but she also had to play the role of a mother. It was not easy for her to cook for Maori Kogoro. Therefore, Yuan Zi and Xiao Lan felt the same way as Ye Fan.
Ye Fan did not know that the reason he made up quickly closed the distance between him, Yuan Zi, and Xiao Lan. It made Yuan Zi and Xiao Lan feel that Ye Fan was the same type of person as them.
Yuan Zi waved her hand and said,"Don't continue this topic." Let's start a new round. If nothing unexpected happened this time, Ye Fan would still be the ghost.”
After losing two rounds in a row, Ye Fan's mentality was a little explosive. His hands that were shuffling the cards were a little trembling.
"Spare me, go easy on me."
"Don't even think about it!"
In the third round, Ye Fan finally reversed the situation. This time, the one who lost was Xiao Lan.
Yuan Zi said happily," I won again. That's great. This time, it's Xiaolan's turn to answer the question."”
"Yuanzi, don't ask too many questions!" Xiaolan said in fear.”
Yuan Zi nodded." I know. Xiaolan, do you have someone you like?"”
"Eh?"
Xiao Lan didn't expect Yuan Zi to ask such a question.
"Is there? This question isn't too much, right?"
"Yes, there is…"
Xiao Lan nodded shyly.
Yuan Zi asked Xiao Lan this question to tell Ye Fan that Xiao Lan already had someone she liked. Not only did the garden protect Xiaolan, but it also protected Xiaolan's love.
Not only did Ye Fan not feel uncomfortable, but he also admired the friendship between Yuan Zi and Xiao Lan. In this era, such sincere friendships were becoming rarer and rarer.
However, as long as Xiao Lan and Shinichi were not married, he would be competing with Shinichi fairly. There was no right or wrong. Ye Fan would never be swayed.
Moreover, obtaining Xiaolan and the garden was only the beginning, not the end. Miyano Akimi, Miyano Shiho, Fujiyama Yukiko, Belmode, and the others were all Ye Fan's targets!
……
Just as Ye Fan thought, Shinichi fell into a dead end looking for a ballpoint pen. He and the staff from the identification department were looking for ballpoint pens in the library, which delayed most of the time.
Mezuki Shisan began to doubt Shinichi's judgment.
"Strange? Why not?"
"Perhaps your reasoning was wrong from the beginning, Shinichi? Everything you've deduced is just a coincidence. Perhaps Boss Shinaka had indeed written down Kubota's name.”
"Coincidence?" Shinichi scratched his head as he tried to think about the clues of the case. Suddenly, he realized something.
"Right, if the name of Kubota was written by Boss Shinjuku, then Kubota's handwriting will be the same as Boss Shinjuku's handwriting. If it's different, then Kubota's name must have been written by the criminal. As long as the two words Kubota are handed over to the identification department to compare the handwriting, we can find the real murderer. Damn it, I shouldn't have kept looking for a pen.”
Shinichi explained his reasoning to Mezuki Shisan. Mu Shisan did as he was told. He asked his men to get the suspect to write the word " Kubota " and send it to the forensics department for handwriting comparison.
Half an hour later, the results of the handwriting comparison were out. The handwriting of Director Ochiai matched the handwriting on the death message by 90%. It could be confirmed that this note was written by Director Ochiai.
In the end, Director Ochiai confessed to his crimes. After the murderer confessed, Shinichi immediately left the art gallery.
After leaving the art gallery, Shinichi realized that it was already dark. He turned on his phone to see what time it was.
"What?! It's already eight o'clock, and I've been in the art gallery for more than three hours!”
Shinichi quickly ran to the cafe near the art museum. When he saw Xiaolan, Yuanzi, and Ye Fan talking and laughing, Shinichi clenched his fists tightly. He was very unhappy!
When Sonoko saw Kudo Shinichi appear, she rolled her eyes and said,""You deduction maniac, do you know how long we've been waiting for you?”
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I didn't expect it to take so long." Kudo Shinichi apologized.”
"Why did you take so long this time? You're not like your usual self."”
Ye Fan said,"It's not easy to solve a case. Shinichi is already very good."”
Kudo Shinichi was very surprised. He didn't expect Ye Fan to not be so annoying just to speak up for him.
In fact, Ye Fan just wanted Kudo Shinichi to stick to his hobby of solving cases and let him ignore other things besides solving cases.
Kudo Shinichi smiled and said," That's right. There was a small accident, but I solved the case smoothly. I'm still pretty good."”
Xiao Lan said unhappily," The three of us are starving from waiting for you. Let's hurry up and eat."”
"Alright, I know a good restaurant nearby. I'll wait for you there.”
Then, Kudo Shinichi brought the three of them to a restaurant in the east of Mi Hua City. Kudo Shinichi had spent a lot of brain cells in the art gallery and was very hungry now. When he reached the restaurant, he didn't think too much and immediately picked up the menu to order what he liked.
