“So why did you drag us to an old beach café?”
“Conan-kun is right,Haibara-san. This looks very old!”
“The building alone has a charm that neither of you two would understand.”
Conan and Mitsuhiko chuckled.
“Are we going to eat here, Haibara?”
“We will Kojima-kun. I wonder what the menu will be now.”
“Lets go,Ai-chan!”
The Detective Boys entered the café.
Genta saw the food and yelled, “It smells great here!”
Haibara made eye contact with the master of the café.
“Hey Akane! Show these children their table!”
“Hayato, shouldn't there be an adult with them?”
Haibara took out her wallet.
“Is this money good enough to eat here?”
“Did you murder your mother to get that amount of money?”
Conan gulped.
“My parents are dead. I live with my guardian. We don't joke about murder.”
“Akane,apologize!”
“No,Hayato! I don't trust it! Who are you?”
“I am Edogawa Conan, detective. This is my partner Haibara Ai. And these are the Detective Boys.”
A girl laughed loudly behind Haibara.
“You? A detective? How cute! Have you solved a murder yet?”
“I can vouch for him.”
Ouka looked skeptical at the girl.
“Who are you?”
“I am Sera Masumi, a high school detective. Conan and his friends are real detectives. Isn't that right,Ai-chan?”
Haibara ignored Sera as usual.
“What are you doing here,Sera-neechan?”
“Sonoko recommended this place.”
Conan chuckled. Definitely sounded like Sonoko.
“Is this some kind of prank? Are you behind this,Riho?”
“ Me ? I had never seen these children before today,Akane!”
“And even if we pulled a prank, we wouldn't pull a tasteless one like this.”
“Ouka! Akane! Riho! Go take the order of these children! Hurry!”
Riho pouted.
“Hayato-kun! You are a meanie!”
Ouka huffed.
“Treats us like slaves!”
Akane looked him straight in the eye.
“That is the type of guy he is.”
“It seems more like you are the lazy bums,” Genta commented.
Conan nodded in agreement.
“I lost my appetite already,”
“What are you talking about Mitsuhiko! I am still hungry!"
Hayato hurried to the table himself.
“S-Sorry for the behavior of my staff! What can I get you?”
“Three juices and three coffees. And pumpkin cake!”
A woman suddenly started yelling.
“H-Help me! I don't feel well!”
The woman collapsed on the ground.
Sera and Conan ran to the body.
“I can't believe this!” yelled Haibara in frustration.
“Nobody touches the body!”
“It smells like almonds. Definitely cyanide.”
“Someone tried to poison her. But who? And why?”
Riho dropped her plate.
“Call the police! Hurry up!”
Hayato quickly called the police.
Inspector Megure and his team arrived at the crime scene.
“Conan-kun? Sera-kun?” You children too?"
“Is this some kind of joke?? These kids can't solve a case even if they wanted to,” sneered Ouka.
It annoyed Sera to no end.
“I must agree with Ouka on this one,” said Akane.
“I think they will easily solve it,” said Hayato.
Riho looked mischievously at her boss.
“Oh? Wanna bet?”
Hayato smirked.
“Sure. What are we betting on,Riho?”
Before Riho could answer, Akane replied: “We want to see your sushi roll,fully exposed.”
Hayato blushed.
“F-Fine. Now if I win… I want a kiss from you.”
Riho smirked.
“Deal.”
“Don't you have a sense of decency? A woman dies here and you are betting?” yelled Megure.
“S-Sorry Inspector.”
“Lets solve this case guys!” whispered Sera.
“As long as I can eat something afterwards,” replied Haibara.
“I will do it to prove we are great detectives!” vowed Ayumi.
“Detective Takagi! Who is the victim?”
“Mia Saotome, 23, fashion model.”
“Haibara, search for all the information about her that you can find.”
“Got it.”
“We don't need to search for the poison in the kitchen," said Sera. “Neither the cook Shiragiku or the owner Hayato would allow it.”
“I agree. Someone from the customers or outside brought it in.”
“We need to question the customers!”
Everyone agreed with Mitsuhiko.
The Detective Boys and Sera asked around for information. They all agreed on three potential suspects:
- Lilly Okamoto (21), the rival of Mia Saotome. They work for the same company. Rumors say she has no real talent.
- Kana McDonald (35), an international fashion critic that wrote an article on Mia that destroyed her own career.
- Shiina Ohno (18), a fan of Mia. She was banned from fashion events due to her violent behavior.
“Have you found something,Haibara?”
“Mia blackmailed Kana. 10 000 yen every month on Mia's backaccount on the 13th.”
“That girl is pretty handy with computers,” muttered Hayato.
“Shiina stalked Mia. She took indecent photos of her and sold them to a social media account.”
“It seems she had her own troubles,” Sera said.
“And Lilly dated Mia's ex, a rich baseball player from oversea's.”
“How is that relevant?”
“It appears she only did it to toy with Mia.”
“I see.”
“Detective Takagi, can you get her ex-boyfriend here?”
“You mean Amano Goudo, the famous baseball player?”
Conan nodded.
“We also found out Mia wasn't killed by cyniade but by an allergic reaction to nuts.”
“I see. Hayato-kun, did Mia-san order something with nuts?”
“I remember her telling me that she was allergic to nuts.”
“I-I didn't make her pumpkin cake with nuts!” said Shiragiku. “In fact, I made one that doesn't contain nuts!”
“I was originally going to bring it to her, but someone said she would bring it to her friend!” cried Riho out.
“Have you figured it out already,Conan?”
“I did. Have you?”
“You bet.”
“Amano Goudo has arrived,Conan-kun.”
“Great. He can help us catch the real killer.”
Megure lined up the three suspects.
“Thanks for helping us,Gouda-san.”
“I still own Mia for saving my career.”
The staff of Familia were excited.
“It's like a drama!” whispered Riho.
“That boy is pretty good!”
“The real culprit is you, Lilly Okamoto!”
“The hell are you talking about, kid?”
“You are the only one of the suspects who knew Mia was allergic to nuts!” said Sera.
“A-Amano knew it too!” she yelled.
“Amano wasn't in the country until 30 minutes ago.”
“He could have paid someone to do it!”
“The truth is that someone paid you to do it,” said Haibara. “Isn't that right, Kana McDonald?”
“Why would I kill her? What motive do I have?”
“Revenge. She ruined your career.”
“Besides, Lilly is the only suspect who knew it.”
“She told you during a shoot because there was chocolate involved!” Ayumi yelled.
“And Shiina-neesan brought it to her." She didn't know she was allergic to nuts!”
“She thought she did it to help her.”
Kana McDonald yelled.
“That stupid turd ruined my career and blackmailed me! I wouldn't let that silde. I contacted Lilly to get dirt on her. She told me she was allergic to nuts. Lilly gladly helped me get rid of her. Shiina was just a casualty.”
“Lilly Okamoto and Kana McDonald, you are under arrest for the murder of Mia Saotome.”
“Those children actually did it. In 20 minutes.” said Ouka.
Riho sighed. “Guess we lost the bet.”
“Losing isn't that bad. Should I use my tongue again,Hayato?”
“A-Akane! There are children here!”
The Detective Boys shrugged.
“Can I finally get my coffee and pumpkin cake?” yelled Haibara.
Hayato happily nodded.
“It's on the house, Detective Boys. Thanks for solving the murder.”
“Hey Ouka-neesan, what did you mean with Hayato-niisans sushi roll?”
“DON'T MAKE ME REMEMBER!”
Conan,Sera and Haibara chuckled.
"Are we talking about Hayacchi's pen-"
Hayato quickly covered Ami's mouth.
Ami broke free and kissed Hayato.
"Ami-chan!"
"What? Everyone could kiss him right?"
The end!
