It's just a grocery store.

Chapter 132 I feel a little bit like seeing someone

After being slightly shocked by the frequency with which Zero Hour and Conan encountered cases, Morobushi Kagemitsu then looked at Conan who was deciphering the code.

The reminder of the drink at midnight reminded Conan of the river just now, so he deduced that the murderer was most likely sniping the man who threatened him on a road similar to the river.

Thinking of the shape of the river he saw on the roof, Conan said as he flipped through the map and finally found the similar Route 162 on it.

Without further ado, Conan jumped up from his chair and shouted:

"Uncle Lingshi, let's go over and take a look!"

Zero Hour: Me?

Of course, Zero Time knew that Conan was wrong, but he didn't want to remind him nor did he want to make a wasted trip with him, so Zero Time patted Morobushi Kagemitsu's shoulder rudely.

Zhu Fu Jingguang: ...?

"Midoka, you go with them. You happen to have a car, so you don't have to worry about the store. I'll take care of it."

No, he just wanted to watch the fun, why would he bring someone out for field work?

Conan was anxious to find a sniper location. He thought that it would be more convenient since Midorikawa had a car, so he agreed with Zero Time's suggestion.

Zhu Fujingguang looked confused. He just stayed behind to listen to Conan's reasoning, and then he was taken away to go on a field trip?

Moreover, Zhu Fushiguri always felt that something was wrong with Conan's reasoning. Was the string of numbers in front really just a cover-up?

Just as I was thinking about it, Midorikawa was pushed out of the door by Reitoki and four children. Reitoki did not forget to take off his apron and raised his hand to say goodbye to them.

“Have a nice trip~”

Zhu Fujingguang: ...I really would thank you, you just don’t want to go out!

Zero Hour: Hey.

At midnight, I watched a large group of people leave, then put on an apron and had a rare chance to work a proper shift.

Ms. Xiaozi: Wow... the store manager has been kidnapped. I have to work with the boss. I'm nervous.

Miss Xiaozi, who only recently found out that Lingshi was the boss, was still a little reserved about Lingshi. She even felt nervous when Lingshi came to the store to work.

Only when Midorikawa went to distract Lingshi's attention did Xiaozi feel a little relaxed. Although she knew that Lingshi was a very easy-going person, he would always feel restrained and unable to relax when facing the boss and employees.

Then the scene in Hello became very strange. Miss Xiaozi was like a chicken with its blood pumped up. As soon as the customers came in, she greeted them, took their orders and poured them water.

Then he ran back to the bar and reported the important matters as he did at midnight, with his back straight, fearing that midnight would find him wrong.

Ling Shi found it funny, but he lowered his head and made the dishes ordered by the customers and handed them to her.

There weren't many customers, but Xiaozi was able to find something to do on the spot, taking out a rag and rubbing an empty table. Lingshi suspected that if she wiped it any further, the table would start to reflect light.

At midnight, I waved and called her,

"Xiaozi, come here."

She froze for a moment, then ran over with a rag.

"What's wrong, Mr. Zero Hour?"

"Well, even if you clean the tables until they shine, I can't promote you to store manager."

"Huh, huh?"

After a moment of shock, she realized it was a joke. Lingshi was teasing her, and then he said:

"Really, Mr. Zero Time, I didn't even react."

Lingshi: "I can't help it, Xiaozi, you just treated me like a monster. What did I do?"

Xiao Zi: "No, no, I'm just a little nervous about working with my boss."

Zero Hour: "Relax, just go to work with Midorikawa as usual. I won't dock your salary."

"Besides, I'm not the scary one. Midorikawa is the scary one. He actually forced the boss to drink bitter melon juice."

"Hahaha……"

When Lingshi mentioned the last incident, Xiaozi also remembered it and couldn't help laughing out loud. Last time was also the first time she saw Mr. Midorikawa so domineering.

After this relief, Xiaozi was no longer so nervous about working with Lingshi, and the two of them started to cooperate better.

It was not until dinner time that Midorikawa came back with Conan. The other children had already been sent home for dinner.

Lingshi raised his head from the food in front of him and said hello.

"I'm home."

Conan responded and then climbed onto the bar chair with a serious look on his face. Midorikawa and Reitoki shrugged their shoulders and then went back to the kitchen to get a new apron for themselves to put on.

Miss Xiaozi was also very excited to see Midorikawa come back. She secretly pulled Midorikawa who was wearing an apron and said:

"Mr. Lingshi is amazing. His cooking skills are on par with yours, the manager. Many customers say so."

Midorikawa: "Haha, that's great. It seems like you guys get along well."

When he was suddenly packed up and thrown out by Lingshi, he was still worried that there would be problems getting along between the two of them. After all, Xiaozi always told him that she was worried about making mistakes in front of Lingshi.

The salary and benefits are good, and there are no deductions. Xiaozi is very worried in front of the boss.

At first he thought the boss was a wealthy and powerful man, but later he suddenly told him that the young man who came to the store every day to chat with the manager was the boss.

She works under the boss's nose every day. She has done nothing wrong, right? Has she ever gossiped about the boss and been heard by him?

She even imagined some unfounded things. Now that he could relax and spend time with Ling Shi, Zhu Fu Jingguang was very relieved.

After Lingshi finished making the meal, he immediately called Xiaozi to come over and help serve it. Then Xiaozi stopped whispering to Midorikawa and ran over to help.

After finishing this at midnight, he looked down at Conan. He knew that Conan found this reasoning incomplete because there was only a location but no time.

And is the string of numbers in front really that simple? Is it really just a cover-up for the criminal?

The more Conan thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong. He suddenly remembered that the code was finally deciphered after he saw it in the magazine of Kogoro Mouri.

Zero Hour: So, how did you come up with this code? Are you guys so smart?

Or when I encounter a case, my brain automatically goes online, and all kinds of codes and prompts are weird. If I have time to write codes, why can't I send messages?

System: Hey, hey, hey, don't force it, host. Some things can only be done with the movement of a finger. What if...

Lingshi thought about it again and again, and decided to ask Zhu Fujingguang who came over to help.

"how's it going?"

Morofushi Kagemitsu thought about the road and high-rise building he was about to find, and what Inspector Megure had found out that a couple was indeed missing.

According to Conan's testimony, the man seen today was indeed the missing man in the photo. He must have been threatened to kill someone by his girlfriend.

Midnight: ...Sounds so familiar, this style of behavior, so threatening.

Lingshi said it out loud as he thought about it. The system was puzzled, and Zhufu Jingguang also thought that Lingshi had figured out who the criminal was.

Shocked, Zero Time actually knew the kidnapper. Then Zero Time glanced at Conan who was still thinking, and pulled Zhu Fushi Jingguang aside and spoke secretly.
