Belmode was stroking the glass of beer in his hand, resting his chin on one hand, and casually commented on the song chosen by the band: "Eternal Love... sounds as energetic as the lead singer."
Jiang Xia nodded, realizing that she didn't recognize the female lead singer on stage, so she chatted along: "This is Yukiko Watanabe. Although she hasn't officially debuted yet, she is favored by many because of her strength. I heard that it won't take long.
He will suddenly become a new star in the singing world. But some people say..."
Having said this, he hesitated for a moment. He picked up the cup, took a sip of juice, put down the rest of the words, and began to listen to the singing attentively.
Next to her, Mao Lilan had already secretly pricked up her ears, wanting to hear the gossip.
——Jiang Xia sometimes participates in some detective variety shows in order to promote his... well, his boss's detective agency. In addition, he seems to have a good relationship with Ms. Yoko, so he knows a lot about the internal affairs of the entertainment industry.
Mao Lilan: "..." It's a pity that Jiang Xia rarely talks to others, especially some negative news.
The star-chasing girl Mao Lilan stopped midway through the gossip for the nth time, feeling as curious as if she was being scratched by a cat. However, Jiang Xia didn’t talk about this kind of thing, and it was certainly not easy for her to ask. In the end, she could only follow Jiang Xia and take a sip of ice.
Juice, suppress your curiosity.
However, speaking of Watanabe Yukiko...
Mao Lilan remembered that she had actually heard some related rumors.
——Watanabe Yukiko is good-looking, very enthusiastic, but she always stays in each band for a short time, and every time she changes to a new band, her stay seems to be shortened, and sometimes she is not even changing.
Good bands changed jobs, but instead went to less well-known ones, as if they couldn't get along with all the teams.
So there are always some rumors saying that she has a bad temper and only cares about herself in everything she does without considering her teammates at all.
Unexpectedly, Watanabe Yukiko will make her debut soon...
Mao Lilan didn't have any idea about this. After all, she had no contact with Yukiko, and she didn't know whether the rumors were true or false.
At this time, she was looking at the energetic musicians on the stage, and had only one thought in her mind - after the concert was over, maybe there would be a chance to sneak over and ask for a few autographs? Although everyone in this band has not officially debuted yet,
The signatures you signed before you became famous are also very collectible.
…
Regardless of her personality, Watanabe Yukiko's singing voice is indeed beautiful.
Belmode had a large glass of fizzy draft beer on hand.
While listening to the song, she raised her head and took a few sips. Then she put the wine glass filled with golden wine and dense bubbles on the table, raised her sleeves boldly and touched the corners of her mouth, and exhaled happily.
After drinking, she glanced to the side with her peripheral vision and found that Uzo's eyes had fallen on her draft beer.
Belmode smiled inwardly.
...Uzo is not as scary as Vodka said. At least for now, he has been easy to get along with.
And it's not difficult to make an appointment - this time, the successful case of dating Uzo made Bermod feel that he seemed to have found the trick: show Uzo the fun of the adult world, and then offered to take him to experience it in depth. Uzo was very happy
Maybe he would be willing to come out.
Thinking of this, Belmod blinked at Jiang Xia, seductively raised the half-cup of draft beer in his hand, and made a gesture of clinking glasses: "Want a drink?"
"...Um, Miss Takenaka." Mao Lilan called Belmode's current fake name, politely refusing for the neighbor who didn't like to refuse, "We are still high school students, and we are not old enough to drink."
Jiang Xia hummed in agreement.
Then he looked away from the wine glass and silently observed the rooftop restaurant.
The draft beer in this shop looks really good.
Moreover, there are several semi-enclosed private rooms on one side of the restaurant. When the curtains are lowered, it will be difficult for others to see clearly the people in the private rooms.
Jiang Xia: "..." If after today, the rooftop restaurant is still operating normally, then he can come over when there are no acquaintances, order a table of draft beer in his adult vest, and carry it into the box. Then the curtain opens
Zhe, drink whichever cup you want, who knows who drank it...
A play plan was quickly formed. Jiang Xia took a sip from the juice glass at hand and exhaled as comfortably as Belmod.
Across the round table, Conan watched the two men drinking beer/juice in a similar manner, and turned to Bermod with suspicious eyes.
"..." I always feel like this woman is trying to lead Jiang Xia astray, and they may have known each other for a while.
However, for some reason, Conan found that he didn't feel too dangerous aura from this "Miss Takenaka", but instead seemed to be... somewhat kind?
He was briefly confused.
Then I felt that I couldn’t take it lightly.
——Jiang Xia has this magical physique that attracts scum. Even if he meets Ginjiu on the train, Ginjiu will look at him twice. Now it is very normal if he attracts people with ulterior motives.
And "Miss Takenaka" is indeed not a good citizen in terms of behavior - not only did she invite Jiang Xia to drink draft beer in broad daylight, but she also tried to take a minor to the bar just now... Even if it was because of herself
I also drink, and I feel that alcohol is not very harmful to people, so I sent out this kind of invitation, but the topic of "high school detective hanging out in bars late at night" is not a good thing for Jiang Xia...
Thinking of this, Conan sighed tiredly.
I hope that the people Jiang Xia attracts this time are just a little deviant.
In this way, as long as they are alert enough, Miss Takenaka will at least not cause any big problems.
…
Just eat and drink, listen to some singing, and have a few random conversations along the way.
The atmosphere gradually calmed down.
——After all, although there were two cadres of the dark organization sitting next to the wine table, they did not have any hostility towards the two high school students across the table.
Conan observed for a long time and found that Belmode did not seem to do anything other than drinking happily. He gradually felt that maybe he was overthinking.
After retracting his attention from the "bad girl", Conan lowered his head and found that the snacks he had just taken on his plate had been eaten without even realizing it.
So he jumped off the chair, picked up the tray, and prepared to go to the buffet to get more.
Mao Lilan also followed.
In the blink of an eye, those passionate songs just now were finished.
The atmosphere on the stage changed slightly, and the tone of the music changed from intense to long and gentle.
Drummer Yusuke Nakamura stood up from the drum kit, picked up a guitar, and took over the lead vocal position.
As the leader of the band, Nakamura Yusuke, who knows a little bit about everything, plucked the strings of his guitar and said with a smile: "Now I will present a classic song that everyone is familiar with——"
When Jiang Xia heard the change of people, she suddenly turned her head and glanced at the stage.
