From then on, Okino Mashiya spent a few days peacefully. Although there were not many customers, his income was still considerable, and he lived a comfortable life.

In fact, as far as Okino Shi himself is concerned, the business of the dumpling shop does not need to be too hot, otherwise he will lose a lot of time for fun. Although his life is tight, his daily life is very fulfilling. When there is no one around, Okino Shi

Just sit on the chair and study the magic in the book. Maybe one day you can learn some powerful magic. Even if you can't perform it now, memorizing it by rote is still a good choice.

But that afternoon, Okino wanted to change his taste, so he went to a convenience store to pick out ingredients. By coincidence, he happened to run into Xiaolan who was coming out of school.

"Hey, isn't this Xiaolan? What a coincidence."

"It's Okino-san! What a coincidence."

Looking at the endearing smile on Xiaolan's face, Okino couldn't help but sigh in his heart. He was indeed the angel appointed by Sister Bei. Even she was cured in an instant.

"Xiaolan, did you... just get out of school?"

"Yeah, I ran out of ingredients in the refrigerator at home, so I just happened to pass by here to buy something."

This scene made Okino feel a little sad. At this time, Xiaolan should be having fun with her classmates and happily buying new clothes to show off her charm. However, because of a sloppy uncle, she was wasting the best time in her life.

Why do you have to mourn your youthful years?

"Hey, Xiaolan wants me to say that you should leave Uncle Maori alone. He will starve to death after a meal, and just let him learn how to cook. This would be too unfair to you."

"It doesn't matter, I'm used to it."

This habit made Okino feel full of sympathy and helplessness.

As far as he knew, Xiaolan had been responsible for laundry and housework since very early. However, now that so many years have passed, it has been five or six years, it is hard to imagine how Xiaolan survived.

Okino Shi couldn't help but sigh and said, "That boy Shinichi is really lucky to be able to catch you."

"What, Okino-san, what are you talking about? Shinichi and I are just childhood sweethearts." As soon as Shinichi was mentioned, Xiaolan's pretty face immediately turned red, making Okino jealous to death.

'If I had such a beautiful and sensible girlfriend, I would be so happy.' Okino smiled bitterly inwardly, but he quickly adjusted his mood.

"Okay, okay, I know you have a good relationship, but you shouldn't show off your affection like this. Be careful of the anger from the singles."

"Haha, I was just joking, Okino-san."

"Hehe, I'm not kidding, don't underestimate the resentment of singles, it's very scary."

"Is that so..." Xiaolan's smile was a little far-fetched.

"By the way, I think that's good. I'll treat you to Chinese food today. Of course, the ingredients are Xiaolan's treat. How about it?" After thinking about it, Okino Shiya decided to help Xiaolan as much as he could, no matter what.

No matter how old your elders are, you should take more care of them.

This is not the Madonna of Okino. Don’t forget that the place where Xiaolan lives is a Mori detective agency. There are two relatives of the God of Death at the base camp. Cases are coming here very quickly. This way Okino has a reason to get involved.

In the actions of the Death God duo, the rewards from now on are not yet full.

"This...is not good." Xiaolan hesitated.

"It's okay, it's okay. Don't be embarrassed. I live alone anyway, so I'm usually bored."

"Oh well."

Under Okino Shi's insistence, Xiaolan agreed. But judging from the smile on the other person's face, Xiaolan was also very happy.

"Hey Chong Ye Sang, can you teach me Chinese cuisine? I know this is a bit sudden, but..."

"Huh? Why do you suddenly want to learn Chinese cuisine?" Okino was surprised.

"No, it's nothing, it's just... I want to cook it for Shinichi when he comes back."

"Tsk, it's that guy Shinichi again. He's really lucky to have a girlfriend who thinks about him all the time."

"What? She's not a girlfriend!" Xiaolan was arrogant.

"Okay, okay, I agree."

"That's great, Okino-san."

In this way, for several consecutive nights, Okino Shi went to the Maori Detective Agency every day to have a meal, and by the way, he taught Xiaolan how to cook Chinese cuisine. Of course, it was just ordinary stir-fry, and he couldn't cook anything more difficult.

And then one night, while having dinner, Okino Shi was invited by Xiaolan to attend the wedding ceremony of a person, and this person seemed to be Xiaolan's middle school teacher...

Early the next morning, a group of people hurriedly boarded the tram and prepared to go to the wedding venue

"Well, Xiaolan, is it really okay for me, an outsider, to accompany you to the wedding?"

On the train, Okino was still a little hesitant about whether to attend the wedding. He agreed happily last night, but he forgot one of the most important things.

He had no money, and didn't even have the money to buy a suit. In the end, he could only wear casual clothes to attend the wedding. Isn't this a loss of face? After all, Xiaolan and Yuanzi both wore clothes similar to school uniforms. After all, they are students, so it's okay to dress like this.

It's reasonable.

What the hell is he wearing casual clothes?

Okino is poor. He can't even afford clothes. How pitiful.

"It's okay, don't worry, the teacher is very easy to talk to." It was Yuanzi who spoke, because this wedding was held by their common middle school teacher.

However, it was precisely because Uncle Maori didn't come that Okino Shicai hesitated a little. He came when others didn't come. What a big deal.

As for the boy Conan, hehehe, the eternal little blue suit.

Attributes (blue suit): Indestructible!

What they are wearing is a magical weapon, but Okino Shimizu is still wearing a novice outfit. Compared with this, the difference is, wow, tsk tsk.

"It's okay Okino-san, I believe she won't mind, teacher."

"Yes, really, but..." Okino laughed sarcastically and looked down at what he was wearing today, "Having said that, my clothes..."

"This..." Xiaolan unconsciously lowered her head and glanced at the clothes Okino Shi was wearing today, her expression was a little subtle, and she couldn't help but ask for help from her best friend Sonoko.

"Hey Okino-san, I remember you said you opened a dumpling shop, right?"

"Yes what's the matter?"

"Is it possible that business...is bad?" Sonoko was hesitant to speak. He originally wanted to say something nice for Okino, but the words changed his taste when he came to his mouth.

A white shirt and black trousers, I'm afraid the total of this outfit is less than a thousand yen, it's a real bargain.

"Ahem, it's okay. You all know that my dumplings are still delicious. It's just that they don't know the goods. There's nothing I can do about it."

"Haha, come on, Yuanzi, this is too rude." Xiaolan pulled her best friend and persuaded her.

"Hey~ I'm sorry, Okino-san."

"it's okay no problem."

Okino Shi pretended to wave his hands calmly, but only he knew the pain in his heart.

This outfit was already the most expensive of all his clothes. Especially for Conan, a brat, although he didn't say anything from the beginning to the end, the look of disgust on his face made Okino lose his temper.

You, a second-generation rich man, don’t know the pain of the poor, who have to spend every penny. You can’t understand this kind of pain!

Although the commotion in the garden was harmless, the atmosphere gradually became tense. Okino Shimizu exuded a "poor" temperament all the time. He lowered his eyes and silently looked at the scenery outside the window without saying a word.

Xiaolan and Yuanzi had nothing to do about this. They smiled bitterly and did not speak as loudly as before.

Fortunately, the journey was not very far, and we arrived at the wedding venue in less than an hour.

As soon as they got out of the car, Okino, who exuded a "poor" temperament, suddenly changed and finally returned to normal, which also made the two women breathe a sigh of relief.

"Hey, let's go in quickly. It's still some time before the wedding starts. If we're lucky, we can still see the bride and groom~" Sonoko suggested.

"Conan, let's go quickly." Xiaolan agreed, took Conan's little hand, called Okino, and the four of them entered the wedding venue unimpeded.

However, when passing by the hall, Okino accidentally spotted the figure of Officer Megure. He couldn't help but curiously looked at the two women leading the way and asked.

"By the way, Xiaolan and Yuanzi, what does your teacher's father do?"

"Hey~ What's wrong, Okino-san?"

"It's okay, I'm just a little curious. I seemed to have seen Officer Megure and Officer Takagi just now."

"Hey~" Yuanzi said in a long tone and turned to look at Xiaolan.

"Xiaolan, do you know what Mr. Matsumoto's father does for a living?"

Xiaolan shook her head, "I don't know, I've never heard the teacher mention it."

"Okino-san, could it be that you saw it wrong?"

"Well... maybe." Hearing what they said, Okino Shiya became unsure, but when he thought about it in the blink of an eye, the possibility suddenly became greater.

While the two of them were not paying attention, General Okino pulled Conan.

"Hey, Shinigami primary school student, please take it easy today, this is a wedding venue."

"Huh? What do you mean, Okino?" Conan was unhappy. Why did he call me a Shinigami elementary school student? He is obviously such a cute Shota.

"I told you, don't call me Death, a primary school student. What a stupid name. You should say that Death is also an uncle, not me." Conan tilted his head and snorted, expressing his dissatisfaction all the time.

"Okay, okay, then I'll call you Conan."

Hearing this, Conan's complexion also improved a lot. But Okino suddenly lost his mind. This kid adheres to the theorem that people will die wherever he goes. Maybe there will be an accident this time. Even hospitals and schools.

Not sparing any place, it can be said that the attributes of the God of Death are spread throughout Japan.

Thinking of this, Okino Shimi remained silent all along the way. Conan was not a talkative, so he was happy to see this.
