"What's wrong? What happened to make it so serious?"
At the stairs on the second floor, probably because he heard his name, Chris Binyard pressed his hands on the railing, leaned half of his body down and asked, "Is he the killer?"
The light green tube top dress specially prepared for the interview had faded away after the interview and was replaced by the simplest white T-denim jeans for home use.
Her long wavy golden hair was simply tied behind her head. Her feet, which were wearing slippers, were suspended in the air due to the woman's movement. Her toenails, painted with bright red nail polish, were particularly conspicuous against the white insteps.
Katsuki Uehara, who was lying on the sofa, raised his eyes, and happened to meet the woman's condescending eyes towards him. He said noncommittally: "That's right, but you can rest assured, Miss Chris. With me protecting you, the killer will never succeed." of."
"Of course I believe you."
Subconsciously giving the man a wink, the smile on Chris Binyard's face was intoxicating: "Superhero in real life."
"Don't, don't, this is media flattery and flattery. It's impossible for a big star like you not to understand this." Uehara Katsumi grinned, almost bubbling with joy.
Miwako Sato, who was sitting on another sofa processing data, subconsciously glanced up——
From her angle, she could just see the scenery under the loose collars of some big stars' white T-shirts. She suddenly understood and couldn't help but shake her head.
As expected of being from the United States, he also has a good sense of dressing style in private.
"This is not flattery."
Chris Binyard, who seemed to be aware of his posture problem, did not have any pretentious reaction. He still spoke to the man openly: "By the way, Mr. Uehara, do you have a girlfriend? A hero like you. , there should be many girls who yearn for heroes who can’t help but pounce on them, right?”
"Girls who yearn for heroes are often very naive. I don't want to teach them how cruel this world is. That would be too tiring."
Katsuki Uehara shrugged helplessly, and the frequency and sound of Miwako Sato's keyboard tapping, who was holding a heavy notebook, suddenly weakened a bit——
"I prefer mature women who have seen the cruelty of the world and still have good expectations for the world. They will tolerate my shortcomings and understand my willfulness.
"Of course, it would be better if you could feed me a bite of food."
Miwako Sato, who pressed the f key, rolled her eyes vaguely.
Chris Binyard, who was leaning on the staircase railing, pouted, his eyes full of smiles: "This is not a low requirement. I'm afraid there are very few women who meet your conditions."
"certainly."
Katsuki Uehara nodded: "Fortunately, I seem to have found it."
"Really?" Chris Binyard raised his eyebrows.

"That's great."
Mika Town, Mori Detective Agency.
Mao Lilan, who was wearing the uniform of Didan High School, was standing by the window holding her mobile phone. Her brows reflected in the glass were full of joy: "Now that we have found it, let's..."
Behind him, Conan, with a slumped face, pushed open the door to the second floor of the office with heavy steps, and weakly said in a long voice: "I'm back~"
After throwing his schoolbag casually on the coffee table, Conan sat on the sofa with his butt raised——
While holding his chin with one hand, his eyes were full of displeasure: Really, when will this kind of playing house with primary school students end, I can't stand it anymore——
"Well, I have a lot of time this weekend. The competition is over. I don't have to go to training for the time being. I have time to rest."
Conan, who was sighing in his heart, couldn't help but be startled when he heard the sound of joy ringing in his ears. He couldn't help but turn his head to look at his childhood sweetheart standing by the window, smiling happily.
"Don't worry, he won't know. The most important thing is to call me a few times. I can answer it when I'm with you. He doesn't know anyway."
Mao Lilan, who was holding the mobile phone, looked almost elated with joy. Conan blinked, and curiosity suddenly arose in his heart.
Who?
Can Xiaolan be so happy?
"Hey, Sister Xiaolan, what do you want to do this weekend?"
"Yes, Conan, you must keep it a secret."
After hanging up the phone, she heard a voice of doubt coming from behind. Mao Lilan walked up to him, leaned over and put her right index finger in front of her lips, turning a blind eye and smiling: "If you let me It would be terrible for me if dad knew about this, so you must keep it a secret, okay?"
"oh."
Conan nodded in confusion: "Sister Xiaolan, what are you going to do this weekend?"
"Of course it's a date."
"It turns out it's a date."
I thought it was something big that needed to be kept secret, other than dating me——
Um? !
Conan Tong Kong shrank violently, his heart trembling as if he had experienced an earthquake!
Dating? ? ? !
!
Are you kidding me? !
who is it? !
who? !
Turning his head stiffly, his eyes gradually flew to the kitchen as the girl hummed and jumped for joy. For a while, Conan was still unable to escape from this news that was like a bolt from the blue.
"Conan, you and your dad will have lunch and dinner on your own this weekend. Then I will tell you that the karate club has special training, so remember to cover for me."
"..."
"Huh? Conan?"
Mao Lilan, who hadn't heard a reply for a long time, held a spatula in one hand, leaned half out of the kitchen, and looked at the living room in confusion.
A smile that was even uglier than crying suddenly appeared on Conan's cute face, and he nodded like a robot, his voice trembling: "Okay, okay, I understand, Sister Xiaolan..."
Are they Xiaolan's other suitors?
Someone in the class?
Or someone from the karate club?
Or someone you met at a sorority party?
Watching Xiaolan pour some vinegar into the pot to cook, Conan's back molars were almost broken.
Why don't I just catch myself a cold now and drink some Baigan?
No way, in that case...
Or should we just confess to Xiaolan?
Conan, who seemed to have seven or eight villains scolding each other in his heart, slumped down on the sofa, staring blankly at the ceiling, as if all his energy had been taken away by the devil, and his mind was filled with thoughts of Xiaolan's previous actions. That joyful expression.
hateful!
My body, my body...
No, I still have to find out who Xiaolan is going to date.
After all, Conan couldn't let go. He slapped the sofa with both hands and sat up straight, with an unprecedented serious expression.
If you are the kind of big scumbag who falls in love with someone you meet, then Xiaolan is in danger!
After the last time he accompanied Xiaolan to a Valentine's Day party, but ended up losing his first kiss, Conan seemed very nervous about it.
What if, what if Xiaolan meets that kind of person again!
Conan's eyes suddenly became sharp as he made up his mind.
