章 15: Murder Case

Yuuki went to the nearest store to buy manga drawing tools, he was startled when he saw the price. He needed to buy 2 or 3 sets of drawing tools, but he didn't expect it was this expensive. He was glad that his dad gave him for free.

Yuuki sighed when he had to pay drawing tools. He paid them and left together with Utaha.

"Sigh, I've never thought it'll be that expensive," Yuuki complained.

"Well, that's necessary for your works after all." Utaha for a rare time tried to cheer him up.

Yuuki looked at her with a strange gaze.

"What's wrong?" Utaha asked.

"Well, it's kind of rare for you to cheer me up, but I'm happy for it." Utaha turned her head in response, Yuuki shook his head and didn't mind her.

Little did Yuuki knew Utaha was trying to hide her blushing.

They walked around the Akihabara, after all, it was their first time to be here.

"Do you have anywhere you want to go?" Yuuki asked.

"No, I'm just following you around today." Yuuki nodded in response and didn't really mind her.

It was actually, his first time to be in Akihabara, but there was no excitement inside him. All of the game, manga, anime, and even a novel at best was mediocre. There were some of the masterpieces but it was hard to find it.

Yuuki thought that he needed to make the world more interesting but he needed companionship to do that. He had a system but to change the world, he needed more people to do it. He looked toward Utaha who was eating her ice cream sexily.

Both of them were on a break after a long walk around Akihabara. Yuuki bought two ice cream for both him and her. He knew that Utaha was teasing him with eating an ice cream sexily.

"Your ice cream is melting." Utaha said.

"Well, there is something more important than ice cream, after all." Yuuki said.

"Hmm, then let me eat it." Utaha took his ice cream forcefully and leaving him dumbfounded.

'This girl!' If Utaha wasn't a cute girl, Yuuki wasn't sure that he could treat her like this.

"Utaha, do you have something do you want to do?" Yuuki asked.

"Hmm, what's wrong? Why are you asking that?" Utaha said.

"Well, I'm just curious, I thought that you follow me to get an idea for your work or something." Yuuki knew that he was writing a light novel from his past life, but he couldn't say it directly.

Utaha looked at Yuuki with amazement, 'As expected of a creator.' She thought that Yuuki as a creator noticed she collected a lot of idea during this trip. She thought for a bit and didn't mind to tell him.

"That's right! I want to write a light novel." Utaha said.

Yuuki nodded at her, a light novel was a new genre of novel that was being popular among teenager. It was quite thin and the story was easy to understand. He knew that the light novel industry would develop in the future.

"That's great, I hope I can read your story as soon as possible," Yuuki said.

"Well, I still haven't finished it, you should buy it after it is being sold," Utaha said.

"Sure, I'll buy your book." Yuuki nodded.

Both of them were talking until Yuuki wanted to go to a sushi restaurant. Yuuki was a gourmet and he had money. He didn't mind to eat a lot of food. He brought Utaha who was reluctantly eat. They had been eating a lot of food since they went together.

"You know, I'll go fat if take me to eat every time." Utaha complained.

"Hahaha, don't worry, how about we do exercises every morning? I'll wake you up." Yuuki said.

"Hmph, is this your way to ask me for a date again?" Utaha crossed her arms and looked away.

'The hell? How can it become a date?' Yuuki shook his head and continued to eat his sushi.

"Hmm, this is delicious." Yuuki ate sushi until he heard a fight in the restaurant. The fight was so loud that made his appetite decrease.

"Tch, what a nice way to ruin my day." Utaha was also felt uncomfortable when she heard the fight.

"Let's go home," Utaha asked.

"Yeah, let's go home." Yuuki didn't have a mood to eat.

They went to the cashier to pay but in front of him there were 1 middle age man and 5 kids around him. There was a fat boy, thin boy, cute little girl, a cold but cute little girl, but his attention was on the last boy. The boy wore a glasses and red bowties.

Yuuki knew when he saw this kid, there must be something bad happening. He wanted to run away but he couldn't, because he still hadn't paid his meal.

Yuuki looked at Utaha who was unconcerned, he took a deep breath and held her hand.

"Wh-what are you doing?" Utaha was blushing.

"Have you heard a story about a black cat?" Yuuki said.

"Black cat?" Utaha forgot about her blushed and looked curiously at him.

"Yeah, when there is a black cat that means you'll get a misfortune," Yuuki said.

"I know that what's wrong? Do you see a black cat?" Utaha said.

"Not a black cat, but more worst." Yuuki didn't need to wait until he heard a scream.

"AAAAAHHH!!!" Everyone was startled and looked toward the source of the scream. Utaha was scared and held his hand tighter.

"Don't worry, it's fine," Yuuki whispered to her softly. He tried to calm her down.

Utaha nodded but still scared, Yuuki looked at the boy who was running toward the source of the scream. He knew something bad would happen if he met this kid because whenever this kid came someone would die.

That's right, Yuuki met the famous 'Detective Conan'.
