Chapter 140
Toru Amuro could clearly feel the sharp gaze from the mixed-race high school student behind him, which was almost piercing through him, but every time he turned around or looked up, the other party acted as if nothing had happened.
This left him somewhat confused, but after thinking about it for a while, Toru Amuro couldn't remember any other situations between him and Hoshimi Mei, other than an encounter two years ago, that might have caused the other party to dislike him.
So he quickly put it behind him and brought Xinghai Yahu's meal to the bar with his signature business smile still on his face.
But Amuro Toru didn't know that it would be fine if he didn't laugh. Once he laughed, Xing Haimei would be reminded of himself who was forced to work overtime, so the more he looked at her, the more annoyed he felt.
Ricardo was working overtime in London, but the culprit was making cakes leisurely. It was unpleasant no matter how you thought about it.
Ran Mouri keenly noticed that Hoshimi Mei was paying too much attention to Amuro Toru. She raised her hand and waved in front of the boy, bringing his slightly distracted thoughts back.
"What's wrong, Bud? You seem a little absent-minded."
Hearing this, Suzuki Sonoko and Edogawa Conan looked over at the same time.
Facing the concerned gazes of the two adults and one child, Xing Hai Mei shook her head, then raised her eyes and fixed her gaze on the man in front of the cooking table, "I just think Mr. Amuro is so leisurely."
Amuro Toru smiled when he heard this, "Don't underestimate me, there is actually a science to cooking."
After that, he casually mentioned a few aspects that are usually not easy to notice, but if you are not careful, they will cause the whole meal to lose its flavor.
"Is that so?" Ran Mouri was quickly attracted. She was usually responsible for cooking and would occasionally encounter the problems pointed out by Toru Amuro.
The two quickly changed the topic. Although Suzuki Sonoko didn't cook often, she happily joined in, and the atmosphere in front of the bar was filled with joy.
Even Edogawa Conan has something to say.
Except for Xinghai Ya or who couldn't get a word in at all.
After all, he was the only one who had hardly ever cooked.
Except for the tragic fish before.
After the pleasant dessert time, Mao Lilan said goodbye to Amuro Toru reluctantly and decided to try out the new cooking skills she had learned tonight.
"See you tomorrow." After leaving the cafe, seeing that it was getting dark, Mao Lilan said goodbye to her friends with a smile.
"Goodbye." Suzuki Sonoko got into her car and leaned over the window to say goodbye to them.
Only after the car left did Mao Lilan look at Xing Hai Mei who was still standing there, and asked with a puzzled tone, "Mei? Aren't you going home yet?"
"Yeah." Xing Hai Yahu carried his bag with one hand. The afterglow of the setting sun shone on his face, casting a dark shadow.
"I don't know how to do this, so I want to ask you."
Mao Lilan:?
Edogawa Conan:?
Neither of them expected this answer. They both looked at the guy who said shocking things with their small eyes, but this guy didn't think there was anything wrong with it at all. He just raised his eyebrows after seeing their expressions.
"Not available?"

"So if you solve this equation and substitute it in, you'll get an answer that's less than or equal to one-half." The tip of the pen slid across the paper, the rustling sound mixed with the boy's clear voice. As the answer appeared on the paper, Xing Hai Ya put down her pen and pushed the draft paper over.
"Mei, you are amazing!" Mao Lilan looked at the steps to solve the whole problem in amazement, "The teacher said in class before that this question is beyond the syllabus."
Witnessing the whole process, Conan Edogawa chuckled twice. He raised the detective novel in his hand to hide his expression, wondering who was the one who had no idea how to answer the questions from the very beginning.
Xing Hai Ya looked at her phone and estimated that it was about time, so she said, "That's good. I should go back then."
He stood up and said goodbye, promised Mao Lilan that he would be home as soon as possible and send her a message, then closed the door of the office and walked down the stairs.
Then, when he walked down the last step, he did not turn in the direction of the apartment building, but turned to the other side.
Then he saw Toru Amuro in the alley of the next street.
And the crew-cut man in a suit next to him.
