From the appearance, it is indeed the same style as the product picture, but you have to make assumptions. For example, the little girl named Harina actually bought the backpack earlier.
And according to common sense, unless the store happened to witness something, or took in or kidnapped Hina, it would be impossible to provide any useful clues.
Sure enough, we still have to find a way to persuade him to help... Haiyuan Ai was thinking about how to speak. Suddenly, her vision dimmed and a calm voice sounded in her ears:
"...You want to buy this?"
"!!!"
Hui Yuarai's heart tightened. Even though she knew it was Ye Gengyi, her body's instinct still made her take half a step back subconsciously.
Damn it... this person definitely did it on purpose. The evidence is that he only deliberately restrains his aura when he is ready to scare himself!
"No," Bumi shook her head, "Xiao Ai and I were just talking, could this be a clue to find Sister Xiao Lan?"
Ye Gengyi almost didn't think about it and directly concluded: "Even if we know each other, it is unlikely that the store owner knows her movements. To take a step back, even if he knows, he will not tell her easily."
"Eh? Why." Ayumi and Mitsuhiko asked in unison.
"Although Xiaolan occasionally becomes violent, she would never attack a child under any circumstances."
Ye Gengyi seemed to have changed the subject and asked, "If you didn't know Xiaolan, would you run away out of fear after meeting her by chance on the street?"
I don’t know her, but I would definitely run away if I met you before I met you. Wait, is this related to the question just now?
Huiyuan Ai remained silent and secretly cursed.
Ayumi and Mitsuhiko shook their heads firmly, and the reasons they gave were very similar.
"No, because Sister Xiaolan is a very gentle person no matter how you look at her."
"so……"
Ye Geng clicked on the camera screen, and Yang Nai, who was running, said:
"If she is not where she wants to go and has to arrive at a certain time, then she is deliberately concealing her whereabouts. She has been missing for a whole day and has not been found by her family, which is enough to prove that even if someone knows her secret , and won’t say it easily.”
"But, she may not have run away just because she saw Sister Xiaolan."
Mitsuhiko seized the opportunity and quickly asked for advice:
"Isn't there a mysterious person whose appearance is unclear here on the stone pier next to the bridge? If there is such a person following me, I will run away in fear when I find out, right Ayumi?"
"That's right!" Yoshida Ayumi nodded vigorously.
"It's impossible..."
This time, without waiting for Ye Geng to answer his questions, Hui Yuan Ai said directly:
"If it weren't for fear, to the point of being too scared to move while standing still, no matter who was being chased by someone they didn't know, they would have screamed subconsciously. It's been so long and no police have come, which is enough to show that Hina I didn’t see that mysterious man dressed strangely.”
"Well... after all, there are not many little girls in the world who can sense dangerous auras and can hide and escape with their intuition." Ye Gengyi concluded.
Haibara Ai:"……"
(oへó╬)! …Who does this reflect?
"That is to say, even if we go to that store now, there is no way we can find Sister Xiaolan..."
Everything returned to its starting point again, and the emotions of the two children suddenly changed from excitement to despair.
"Let's go, let's go eat first. If we don't go to Yuantai, we'll have to wait in a hurry." Ye Gengyi said.
"Oh..." Mitsuhiko and Ayumi nodded listlessly.
…
Snack street, an open-air stall.
Ye Gengyi sipped his coffee and enjoyed the brief tranquility.
Haihara Ai glanced at the three children at the opposite table who were eating special hot spring steamed buns.
Since he was not sure whether Ye Gengyi was worried that they would run away after knowing the clues, he deliberately concealed the content of the reasoning, so he could only lower his voice and make insinuations:
"I can't tell you, you are quite good at coaxing children."
"If you mean I managed to take away the motivation you gave them..."
Ye Geng paused, nodded and said, "Yes, it's quite successful so far."
"Why?"
Haibara Ai was alert, "Is the Kudo family member really in danger?!"
"We don't rule out that possibility." Ye Gengyi took out his wallet from his pocket, took out the hot spring coupons and a few banknotes, and handed them all to Haibara Ai, "It's for the car. If you want to play detective games, you can take care of the kids yourself." Let’s play, call me if you need anything.”
Haihara Ai almost snatched the wallet and threw it in his face.
After careful consideration, I gave up on this potentially dangerous and self-destructive attempt.
Her half-moon eyes stared at someone:
"Did you plan this from the beginning?"
From the beginning, this naturally refers to the period before separation from Mouri Kogoro and the others.
"I'm not good at dealing with children," Ye Gengyi rubbed his brows, "But you and the little detective seem to be quite enjoying it."
"Please, I just..."
Haibara Ai wanted to deny it, but deep down she had to admit that since joining this young detective team, even if she encountered cases and encountered dangerous things, she was indeed happier than before.
These feelings are something that Ye Gengyi, who is obviously 23 years old but lives like a grandfather, cannot give him... Neither can his sister, nor can he be a doctor, because they are elders to him, and Bumi and the others are younger. , but with Edogawa Nakawa, he seemed to be of the same age.
Let's take risks together, make mistakes together, be impulsive together... Okay, I understand, no wonder Brother Gengyi said that he is not good at dealing with children.
Although he is only 5 years older than me, I am afraid that even if I was given another 5 years, I would not be able to achieve this kind of talent, skill, logic, and reasoning ability that far exceeds my own... But is he really happy like this? ?
Hui Yuan Ai thought about it and blurted out: "If you can, just take one aptx-4869..."
What does this girl want to do? Give me medicine if you disagree?
Although Ye Gengyi is very observant, it is not mind-reading after all, so he has no idea why the topic suddenly changed from 'I let you go out to play' to 'I will give you a pill'.
Therefore, if the child disobeys, he still has to be beaten... Ye Gengyi came to the conclusion and looked over with dead eyes:
"If you feel itchy, just say so."
"That's not what I meant... I just, uh, forget it..."
Huiyuan Ai hesitated for a long time, but couldn't think of the right words.
I always feel that after I say something like, "I think you are unhappy, and I want you to become smaller and join us in the ocean of joy," not only will my image collapse, but I might even get a beating.
Sigh... If I have the opportunity to travel or play in the future, I'd better try my best to persuade Brother Geng Yi to participate.
Huiyuan Ai paused, then changed the subject very stiffly, and said:
"Well... I actually want to say that there must be other clues in the photo, right?"
