Chapter 78 What a complete scumbag!

Time soon came to Valentine's Day, and Zhang Shan took Yuanzi to a couple's restaurant for dinner.

"Ah~!!"

Just when the two were being affectionate with each other, a scream suddenly came from the direction of the distant box!
"What's wrong?" Sonoko was instantly awakened from the sweet atmosphere and turned to look at the source of the sound.

At the door of a private room, a woman with long matcha-colored hair was sitting on the ground with a look of fear on her face. She covered her lips with one hand and looked into the room with horror in her eyes.

Just when everyone was puzzled, a young figure ran out from the side, shouting anxiously: "What happened?!"

The moment he saw the other person, a trace of helplessness flashed in Zhang Shan's eyes.

"If I had known this guy was here, I would never have come to this restaurant to eat."

Isn't that figure that hurriedly ran out Edogawa Conan, known as the Elementary School Student of the God of Death?

"Isn't that the little brat from Xiaolan's family? Why is he here?" Sonoko also saw Conan's figure, and a look of confusion appeared in her eyes.

Zhang Shan waved his hand and said, "Maybe they're here for a date. Primary school students nowadays are so precocious."

He just remembered that in the original book, the reason why Xiaolan and the others went to that party was because Sonoko wanted to get out of being single, and forced Xiaolan to agree, which led to the subsequent Valentine's Day murder.

Oh, it's the first Valentine's Day murder.

And now that Sonoko has Zhang Shan, she naturally won't help Xiaolan accept that person's invitation. Given Xiaolan's personality, she will definitely not agree to the other party. In this way, it seems reasonable for Conan to appear here?

"What the hell is reasonable about that! I picked a high-end restaurant today to avoid any accidents. I didn't expect that! How could you follow me to a place like this?!"

With the appearance of Xiaolan and Kogoro, all the people who should come are here, and what follows is a thrilling reasoning!
"The deceased's name is Ono Aoyama, he is 35 years old. He came here to spend Valentine's Day with his lover, the screaming woman before." Conan stood beside Zhang Shan and whispered the information of the incident.

Zhang Shan rolled his eyes and whispered, "Brother, what's the point of you telling me this? You don't want to get involved in a murder case, do you?"

Although he knew that Conan would definitely interfere in this kind of case, Zhang Shan still wanted to persuade him. After all, he should do less of this kind of free work.

At least you can register your name with the police, and get some compensation every time you help them solve a case, right?
As a noble man, Conan looked at Zhang Shan with disdain and said, "You are just thinking about making money..."

"I can't help it. I am a vulgar person who will not do anything without profit. The ultimate goal of life is to have a car and a house. I am not like some people who are noble from head to toe and even their souls." Zhang Shan shrugged, turning a blind eye to Conan's contempt, and continued: "By the way, why are you here? Did you confess to Xiaolan, so you came here for a date today?"

Hearing Zhang Shan's words, Conan stared with dead fish eyes, and the corners of his mouth twitched: "How is it possible! Besides, have you ever seen someone go on a date with his father-in-law?"

"Oh, you even called my father-in-law so soon?"

"You heard wrong!"

While the two were talking, Xiaolan and Sonoko came up to them. Xiaolan said to Conan with an apologetic look on her face: "Sorry, Conan, it looks like dinner tonight is going to be ruined."

"Is this the Conan you were talking about?"

Another female voice was heard from behind the two of them, and then a beautiful woman with gold-rimmed glasses and an attractive figure slowly walked towards them.

"It's Aunt Yingli! Long time no see!" Zhang Shan greeted her politely.

Kisaki Eri smiled and nodded to Zhang Shan, then said, "Yes, the last time you met, you were still in junior high school, right? You and Sonoko weren't in love at that time~"

Faced with the teasing of their elders, Zhang Shan and Yuan Zi did not show any sign of shyness.

They are not the kind of people who are having a secret relationship. They are in a relationship openly and honestly!
Even the people in Yuanzi's family knew about her and Zhang Shan, and they were even willing to let Yuanzi stay overnight at Zhang Shan's house, which shows that the other party had already recognized Zhang Shan's identity.

Of course, this is also because the Suzuki family has a good family tradition. If it were another wealthy noble family, they would probably not agree to their daughter marrying an orphan with no money or power. Zhang Shan smiled and replied, "Yes, but it's been so many years, don't you plan to reconcile with your uncle? Even if you are angry, after so many years, you should have calmed down, right?"

Today is Valentine's Day. Eri Kisaki and Kogoro Mouri appear in this couple restaurant at the same time, and even Xiaolan and Conan are there. Even if Zhang Shan doesn't remember the original plot very clearly, he can understand that this is probably another plan designed by Xiaolan to make her parents reconcile.

So, Zhang Shan just went with the flow and said it out.

The smiling Hibiki Eri's face suddenly froze, and then she turned her head away with a proud look on her face and said, "Who wants to reconcile with a man of such low taste? If you want me to forgive him, there is only a slight possibility unless he kneels down at my doorstep and begs me!"

Zhang Shan and Yuanzi smiled awkwardly, while Xiaolan on the side looked even more disappointed. She knew in her heart that today's plan had failed again, and her father and mother still had no intention of reconciling.

Seeing that these people were about to start chatting, Conan slipped and planned to run away.

How can chatting here be as interesting as solving a case?

But just when he was about to leave, Kisaki Eri, who had a proud look on her face just now, suddenly set her eyes on Conan. Looking at the other's face that was exactly the same as Shinichi's when he was a child, the queen of the legal world suddenly thought of something and her heart trembled suddenly!
"That drug actually worked?!"

Although she was shocked, Kisaki Eri remained calm on the surface. She calmly called Conan and said with a smile: "Little friend, you are living with Xiaolan now. Please take good care of Xiaolan in the future~"

As he spoke, he kindly ruffled Conan's hair, making his black hair messy.

The corners of Conan's mouth twitched, but after meeting Kisaki Eri's eyes, Conan shuddered for no reason and laughed quickly: "Hahaha! That... that..."

After hesitating for a long time, the boy couldn't utter a complete sentence. In the end, it was Xiaolan who helped him out. Conan was able to leave this place smoothly and continue to be his great detective.

"That kid will probably end up living alone for the rest of his life." Zhang Shan complained in a low voice.

Kisaki Eri glanced at Zhang Shan, Sonoko and Xiaolan without leaving a trace, and from their expressions, she immediately had the answer in her mind.

"Didn't you expect that Zhang Shan, who usually doesn't care about anything, would be the first to discover Shinichi's identity? Xiaolan, as Shinichi's childhood sweetheart, you actually lost to a man~"

Zhang Shan had no intention of getting involved in the case. Just as he said, he would never do such a thing as working for free.

I found a place to sit down with Sonoko and ate fried lobster while waiting for the case to be over.

"There's a murder over there, it's a wonder you can still eat..." Sonoko said speechlessly.

"I've been playing with Shinichi for so many years, and I've seen a lot of murders. This kind of scene is nothing."

When he had almost finished eating, Conan had also successfully solved the case. Needless to say, the murderer was the wife of the cheating man.

After discovering that her husband was cheating on her, she turned a blind eye to it. After all, cheating is a very common thing in Japan.

But when she found out that her husband used the family savings to create romance for another woman, she could no longer suppress the anger in her heart. After many fruitless quarrels, the woman was still furious.

When the other party was crying on the ground, Zhang Shan deliberately walked over to listen. The reason why the other party chose to kill her husband was because today was Valentine's Day, and she was busy dealing with her rebellious teenage children at home, while her husband came out to have fun with a young woman, and in this kind of couple restaurant!
In anger, the woman lost her mind. While the mistress was out putting on makeup, she took a glass of poisoned red wine and drank it with her husband.

According to her, her husband was very reluctant at first, but she just said, "If you don't drink it, your good thing today won't come true," and he drank the red wine in her hand without thinking.

Then it was like that, and then there was the scene of the woman screaming.

After listening to this, Zhang Shan was speechless.

"This kind of playboy is a complete scumbag!"
