Chapter 281 The Strange FBI
Xia Xi originally thought that because of Linnet's intervention, the criminal was arrested early, and there would be no scene where Conan shouted in front of the camera at the competition that he was a disciple of Sherlock Holmes. Maybe Sera Masumi would not have noticed the similarities between Conan and Kudo Shinichi when they were children, and would not have come to Japan.
Unexpectedly, in a later interview, Glass's younger brother Apollo still mentioned Conan, saying that he was a disciple of Sherlock Holmes, who cleverly cracked the code and allowed Conan to show up in the media.
"Xia Xi, here!" Yuanzi waved and called out to Xia Xi, who had walked into the restaurant but had been standing at the door, wondering what she was thinking.
"Xia Xi, come here, let me introduce you. This is a new transfer student to our class - Sera Masumi. Like you, she's also a detective." Seeing Xia Xi sit down, Sonoko couldn't wait to introduce her to Xia Xi.
"This is Natsume Natsuyu, she's also a detective like you, Sera. You two might have something in common. And Natsuyu lives upstairs from this restaurant."
After introducing each other, Suzuki Sonoko vividly recounted the story of how she accidentally mistook Sera Masumi for a pervert on the bus, which led to a fight between her and Xiaolan, and how they became acquainted through the fight.
"Jeet Kune Do?" After listening to Sonoko's story, Xia Xi looked at Shira's face and seemed to think of something. Then she looked at Mao Lilan and said thoughtfully: "Speaking of which, Xiaolan, do you think Shira looks familiar?"
"Really?" Mao Lilan didn't think so at first, but when Xia Xi said it, she also felt that Sera looked a little familiar, but she couldn't remember where she had seen him no matter how hard she tried.
When Sera Masumi heard this, he looked at Xia Xi curiously.
"Hmm..." Xia Xi frowned and looked at Sera Masumi carefully. Suddenly, she thought of someone. "I think I know why he looks familiar! Sera looks a bit like that weird FBI guy."
FBI! Sera Masumi's heart suddenly tightened when he heard this.
Could the person Xia Xi was talking about who looks like her be her eldest brother? !
As expected of a detective, he's a little too perceptive.
"FBI? Xia Xi, when did you and Xiaolan know the FBI? How come I didn't know?" Suzuki Sonoko asked in a pretended dissatisfaction, "Are we still good friends?"
"Yuanzi..." Xia Xi looked helpless, "You forgot. Xiaolan and I mentioned this in our previous chat. It was the strange passenger we encountered in the bus robbery when Conan and the others went skiing. When I occasionally talked about it with Xiaolan, Xiaolan also said that she met him recently and told us that he was from the FBI."
At that time, they also talked about the situation where Mao Lilan and Kudo Shinichi met each other while traveling in the United States.
I guess at that time, Sonoko's attention was all on the "friendship in times of adversity" between Xiaolan and Kudo Shinichi, and she didn't pay any attention to Akai Shuichi who appeared as a background board at the time.
"Ah——" Yuanzi scratched his head a little embarrassed, "It seems to be true. But Xia Xi, why do you say he is weird?"
After hearing this, Sera Masumi was almost certain that they were talking about her elder brother who worked in the FBI.
I didn't expect that Xiaolan and the others knew the elder brother so early. But why did they say that the elder brother was weird? Sera Masumi was also very curious. Hearing Sonoko's question, Sera Masumi also pricked up her ears quietly.
"Because if Xiaolan hadn't said that the man was from the FBI, I would really suspect that he was a stalker. I felt that he was secretly observing me on the bus, and later on I occasionally saw him around the group of kids from the Junior Detective League. Isn't that suspicious?"
"It must be a coincidence. The FBI agent never showed up again." Mao Lilan explained with a dry laugh.
Although the FBI gentleman said some strange things to her when they met, Xiaolan intuitively felt that he really cared about her at that time.
"But does he look like Sera?" Mao Lilan brought back the original topic. She thought about the gentleman's face for a moment and felt that he did not look like Sera. She turned and looked at Xia Xi in confusion.
"It's the eyes." Xia Xi further reminded, "The first time I met that FBI agent, he was wearing a mask, so I was more impressed by his eyes. When I met Shiliang today, I immediately thought of those eyes."
Xia Xi turned to look at Sera Masumi and said sincerely, "Your eyes are really similar. By the way, I heard that you used to live abroad, Sera, do you have any relatives working in the FBI?"
Sera Masumi smiled awkwardly and quickly waved his hands, denying, "Of course not, I used to live in England with my mother, and I had nothing to do with the FBI."
Masumi Sera never expected that someone would link her to her elder brother after just their first meeting. The most urgent thing was to distance herself from him first.
