Chapter 222: Exploding Kitchen
Xiawole approached the two Hearts of God floating on the platform. She stretched out her hands towards them. The Eye of God hanging on Xiawole's body suddenly lit up with a faint light, allowing her hands to penetrate the translucent protective film unhindered.
The moment she grabbed the two God's Hearts, the sky outside was suddenly covered with dark clouds and thunder rumbled. After the light of the two God's Hearts was strong for a moment, they retracted and looked like two exquisite and irreplaceable ornaments.
The rich man's steps towards the car suddenly stopped. He looked up and stared at the black clouds rolling in the sky. His eyes, which always contained a smile, opened slightly, revealing dark pupils.
The depressing atmosphere in the air suddenly intensified. A rainstorm was inevitable and a subordinate in a black suit held up an umbrella in front of him to prevent the rain from getting this seemingly gentle boss wet.
"The storm is coming. Soon, the world will change."
His voice was not loud. Such an ambitious idea should have been reported to Crow in the villa, but none of the men in black suits present moved.
They were silent, mechanical, like puppets, and remained indifferent to the words of the rich.
"It's time for you to go, rich man." The man holding the umbrella was silent for a moment, then suddenly spoke. If you look closely, you can see that his eyes are empty and cold, like a puppet being controlled.
"Don't be so anxious to drive me away, Sandoni." The silver chain of the rich man's glasses swayed slightly, and his voice was full of smiles, as if he was talking about family matters. "After all, I am also your fund provider."
"Bankers' blood always runs with glib tongue and conspiracy." The man still held an umbrella for the rich man, but his voice became the flat tone of a girl, without a trace of ripples, "You will never be able to replace Morax."
"Is this a prophecy?" the rich man raised his eyebrows.
"No, it's advice."
"I do have the idea of replacing Morax. As you said, loyalty and kindness have never flowed in my blood." The rich man never denied some of his bad ideas, "but more often, I am not a rich man. I was not before, and I will never be in the future."
"Be careful not to get into trouble, 'Puppet'." The rich man got into the car he had been waiting for for a long time with a smile and drove away.
The roar in the sky gradually became louder and louder, and the rain poured down, covering the entire forest in an instant. The man was still holding the black umbrella, looking ahead with lifeless eyes. After a long time, he finally spoke.
“I never forgot who I was.”
The rain extended all the way to Beika Town. Funina lay on the balcony on the second floor, propped up her face and looked outside. The sound of wind chimes rang as the door was pushed open, and she hurried downstairs.
It's Conan Edogawa from the office across the street.
"Little brother, what are you doing here? Are you here to investigate your uncle's competitor?" Funina raised her eyebrows. She didn't go upstairs again, but sat down on the sofa directly.
"Sister Xiaolan and Uncle have gone out for something, and they want me to stay with you for a while, big sister, is that okay?" Edogawa Conan blinked his big eyes, trying hard to express his innocence and cuteness so that the young girl opposite would agree to let him stay.
This is the office opened by Shi Ning. He had been chasing after Shi Ning for some time, but he didn't meet Shi Ning again until the last few days. Then he realized that the other party had another office opposite Xiaolan.
After finding an excuse to leave Xiaolan and Maori Kogoro at home together, he immediately came to the door with an innocent and harmless image. It happened to be raining heavily outside, and anyone with a little kindness in his heart would not let him go out in the rain!
"You're not at home? Fine, but you're not allowed to touch anything else." Although he questioned the authenticity of the statement, Edogawa Conan still stayed. He sat obediently on the other side of the sofa, observing the entire office covertly.
The decoration inside the office is quite unique. Just by looking at the style, you can tell that there are five people's styles, and it looks very childlike.
He looked around and found that there was no one here except Funina.
"Big sister, where are the other people here? Are you the only one here?" Edogawa Conan asked in a tone as slow as possible.
"I'm alone here now. Zhongli went to the antique market, Wendy went out to handle a commission, Nashida went to the park, and Ying is here, but in the kitchen."
"Park? But it's raining outside now, is it really okay not to come back?" People who haven't come back in this kind of weather, or even go to the park, can only be said to be worthy of being Shi Ning's employees? Quite unique.
Fernina shrugged. "Nothing will happen to Nashida. She is the epitome of wisdom..."
Conan Edogawa keenly noticed the pause in Furnin's words. She was not going to say the second half of the sentence. Just when he was about to ask more questions, there was a sudden loud explosion inside the office.
Is there a bomb?
Edogawa Conan jumped off the sofa reflexively and ran inside. After running two or three steps, he remembered that he was now in someone else's territory. He turned his head to look at Funina, and the girl had just put down the gorgeous teacup in her hand.
"Every time there's such a big noise." Finina walked towards the office, and Edogawa Conan hurriedly followed.
The girl seemed to be accustomed to this voice, or... very familiar with it?
When he finally arrived at the source of the explosion, Conan Edogawa felt like his brain was kind of shutting down.
It wasn't an explosion or a vendetta, it was just an explosion in the kitchen due to one person's improper operation.
Black smoke billowed out of the kitchen. A woman with purple hair and dressed in a kimono stood not far from the kitchen, looking at it with a puzzled look on her face. There were even black stains on her face, and her originally neat and beautiful clothes were now exceptionally messy.
"Still unsuccessful?" Funina asked, leaning against the wall and raising her eyebrows.
"I just put the eggs in the microwave...Why is breakfast so hard to make?" The woman frowned and muttered to herself, she looked really confused.
"Come on, you've already blown up the kitchen for the fifth time." Furniture shook her head. "Let me make macaroni. It's simple and delicious. It's enough for breakfast."
“No.” The woman frowned and shook her head. “This is an eternal enemy. I must defeat it.”
"Then your enemy is really stubborn." Furninna muttered. She did not stop the woman from entering the kitchen again, but just closed the door behind her.
"She..." Edogawa Conan looked at the closed kitchen door in silence. Although he had heard of people cooking and causing the kitchen to explode, he had never thought that such a thing would happen in front of him.
