Chapter 424

Her cheeks were flushed red, and she was so embarrassed she wanted to hide.

Getting jealous over a man...

She just wanted to dig a hole and bury herself now.

"Although I'm just an outsider..."

"But I've always believed... that a husband and wife should get along well."

"Don't fight all the time."

The dad held the baby in his arms.

His tone was gentle and warm.

"Your wife..."

Miyano Akemi seemed to have sensed something...

"Passed away... she was killed by someone!"

"!!!"

"Sorry!"

Miyano Akemi covered her mouth.

"It's okay! She already tried her best..."

The dad's eyes suddenly dimmed.

"......"

Hoshino Mu's brow frowned slightly.

Intuition told him things weren't that simple.

So he opened his mouth and asked:

"What about the murderer?"

"......"

The dad lowered his head even further.

When he heard the word "murderer," he shook his head gently.

"How could this be!?"

Miyano Akemi covered her mouth.

"Don't talk about the murderer, we don't even know if the murderer is a human or a monster."

"There were traces of animal bites on her body."

"But we don't have such ferocious animals here at all."

"The police couldn't do anything either..."

The dad was in low spirits; he clenched his fists and slowly relaxed them.

"How can you give up!? Your wife might be watching you from heaven!"

"!!!"

The dad instantly looked up at Miyano Akemi.

His body froze there, not knowing how to react.

"Are you really going to give up?"

Miyano Akemi's words echoed in the dad's ears.

His eyes were hollow, and he muttered:

"If I don't give up... what else can I do?"

Miyano Akemi was bursting with positive energy.

She clenched her fists and said:

"Of course, you catch the murderer and bring them to justice!"

The dad chuckled:

"Even the police can't do anything about it, for an ordinary person like me... it's easier said than done."

The atmosphere fell into silence once again.

Indeed, for an ordinary person.

They couldn't afford the high price to hire a detective...

After all, so many cases happen every day across the country.

Conan couldn't use a shadow clone technique to appear everywhere to solve cases for people for free.

So these ordinary people who weren't mentioned in the anime could only be ignored.

Just then.

A waiter walked over with a receipt.

"Hello! Your meal total is 5000 yen..."

He placed the receipt directly on the table.

Then he bent over, waiting for payment.

Miyano Akemi was just about to take her wallet out of her bag.

"You calculated it wrong."

The dad didn't even think, he looked up directly at the waiter.

He raised a finger and said seriously:

"We have three adults and two children here, three set meals plus two glasses of milk, plus the table fee and service fee... it should be 2500 yen..."

The waiter was confused by the dad's words, which came out like a string of pearls.

He looked at the receipt on the table and was slightly stunned.

Then he instantly reacted and said with a smile:

"Ah? I'm sorry, please wait a moment while I verify..."

After a while...

The restaurant manager walked over directly and bowed to apologize:

"I'm really sorry, this was our mistake, this meal is on the house."

"My previous job was an accountant, so I'm a bit... with these numbers."

The dad scratched his head embarrassedly.

Miyano Akemi asked:

"Previous job... then what about now?"

"You've seen it... I have to take care of the child, so no company is willing to hire me..."

"Is that so... you've had it so hard..."

Miyano Akemi looked regretful.

Just as the two fell into awkwardness again.

Hoshino Mu's voice came from the side:

"Any interest in working for me?"

"???"

Everyone looked up at Hoshino Mu in surprise.

"You don't look very old..."

The dad questioned Hoshino Mu's ability.

"Ahem! Although Zhao Si-kun is only 17, he's very capable!"

"Do you know about the serial killer case that happened in the restaurant yesterday..."

Miyano Akemi was also very warm-hearted.

Seeing that Hoshino Mu was actually taking the initiative to help others for the first time.

She was moved to tears.

So she used her silver tongue.

And poured out all of Hoshino Mu's advantages.

The two chatted enthusiastically on the side. ===== CHAPTER 425 =====
