"Don't be angry, do you want to eat takoyaki?" Kudo Shinichi deliberately made Mao Lilan laugh.

I bought a piece of takoyaki at a stall.

"Come on, open your mouth, ah--" He poked one with a stick and handed it to Mao Lilan.

Mao Lilan's face turned red and her eyes wandered.

So many people are watching...

Shinichi actually did this.

She looked at the takoyaki in front of her, closed her eyes, and opened her mouth with a heroic expression.

"Ah, it tastes pretty good." Kudo Shinichi silently took the takoyaki off the stick and chewed it.

Mao Lilan:......

Silently staring at Kudo Shinichi.

"Ah, do you want to eat? Here you go." Kudo Shinichi was stunned and handed the whole box in his hand to Mao Lilan.

"I don't want to eat it!" Mao Lilan turned around and left.

One look at it made me very angry.

Kudo Shinichi: Ah... Xiaolan is angry again?

Strange, how did I offend her?

Women are really incomprehensible.

Kudo Shinichi quickly followed him while eating takoyaki.

"Wait for me, Xiaolan." He shouted as he ran.

As for Mao Lilan, her attention was attracted by a divination room made of dark purple tents.

Standing outside and looking in, you can't see anything.

Only occasionally a few guests opened the curtain and walked in, and then walked out after a while.

"Miss, do you want a divination? It's only 500 yen a time." A student wearing a wizard's robe who was standing at the door handing out flyers came up and asked.

He handed Mao Lilan a leaflet.

"Divination..." Mao Lilan looked at the flyer.

"This kind of thing must be a lie..." Kudo Shinichi, who followed, stuffed takoyaki in his mouth and held a crepe in his hand, complaining with disdain.

Only women would believe this kind of thing.

etc……

It seems that Tsushima told him before that there is a family of witches?

"Is it possible that your fortune teller is named Koizumi Anko?" Kudo Shinichi asked silently.

If her name is really Koizumi Anko, divination... is not impossible.

"Huh? Sorry, we don't know the person you're talking about." The person responsible for distributing flyers sounded embarrassed.

"Koizumi Hongzi, who is it?" Mao Lilan stared at Kudo Shinichi closely.

When did Shinichi meet a girl she didn't know about?

"Yes... he is a very famous fortune teller, hahahaha..." Kudo Shinichi tried to cover up his embarrassment with a smile.

"Soothsayer..." Mao Lilan's eyes became more suspicious.

Shinichi is obviously...

Won't care about this.

What divination, magic...

Shinichi wasn't interested at all.

How do you know the famous fortune teller?

"Actually...it's because that guy Tsushima told me, hahahahahahaha..." Kudo Shinichi frantically searched for excuses in his mind, and finally found one that satisfied him.

Xiaolan should...

You won't doubt Tsushima.

"It turns out that Mr. Tsushima knows me." Mao Lilan suddenly realized.

Not the slightest bit of doubt.

Kudo Shinichi:...his face suddenly fell.jpg

You should doubt Tsushima!!!

Why do you believe it unconditionally when I mention him?

"Anyway, I'm here, and the divination only costs 500 per time. Let's go..." Mao Lilan dragged Kudo Shinichi into the tent.

Kudo Shinichi's face was full of reluctance.

The tent was dark, with a simple table, a stool, and a glowing crystal ball on the table. A figure in a black robe sat there quietly, waiting for them to come.

"Welcome to the House of Everything," the fortune teller said in a low voice.

"You're obviously just a divination house..." Kudo Shinichi complained with dead eyes.

"Please don't worry about these details, guest." The figure in black robe chuckled.

"What do you want to divine?" asked the figure with his hands on the crystal ball.

The black robe also covered his hands.

"I want to know..." Mao Lilan looked hesitant.

"Me and Shinichi..." Mao Lilan looked at Kudo Shinichi.

Valley

Kudo Shinichi looked at him blankly.

"Will we always be together?" Mao Lilan asked.

"Do you mean friendship, or... romantic togetherness?" the fortune teller asked with unclear meaning.

"..." Mao Lilan was stunned for a moment.

His face gradually turned red.

"Of course... friendship." Mao Lilan stumbled.

Kudo Shinichi:...What, it’s not because you like me?/Full of disappointment.jpg

"Let me see..." The diviner's hand touched the crystal ball twice.

The crystal ball is still clear and bright.

The fortune teller seems to see the so-called future from inside the crystal ball.

He smiled and said to Mao Lilan: "Everything will develop smoothly."

"Excessively bright light will plunge people into darkness, and darkness will swallow up all light..."

"You have been surrounded by darkness for a long time, but you yourself are shining faintly."

"But no one can separate you."

"You are a perfect match, and not even the world can separate you." The fortune teller said in an ethereal voice.

Mao Lilan and Kudo Shinichi were confused after hearing this.

But Mao Lilan captured the last sentence keenly.

[You are a perfect match, and not even the world can separate you.]

So she and Shinichi will always be together!

However, Kudo Shinichi keenly captured other information.

Already surrounded by darkness...

It must be referring to the organization.

In other words... Osamu Dazai.

Dangerous moments happen, so...

You must not let Ran know that Edogawa Conan is Kudo Shinichi!

but……

Is what this fortune teller is telling the truth? Or is he just lying?

Kudo Shinichi touched his chin and looked around.

Maybe it's a set line used to trick customers.
