Chapter 251 Two Shadows
night.

The moon was high in the sky and it was raining heavily. The raindrops were falling on the ground with a crackling sound, rhythmically moving and forming a beautiful scenery.

However, although rainy days are beautiful, they are not suitable for going out, which makes Yuanzi a little distressed.

She had made an appointment with Masahiko to go out for dinner together in the evening, but now it was raining heavily. What should she do?

Anyway, in this situation, Sonoko couldn't go out on her own initiative, so she could only ask Masahiko to drive over and pick them up.

"It's so late now, why hasn't Mr. Masahiko come yet?" Sonoko said anxiously, looking at her watch.

Could it be that she was stood up by the other party?
"Sonoko, please don't be so anxious, okay?" Xiaolan put her hands behind her back and said with a smile, "The male protagonist usually appears later."

"Don't say that, I'll feel embarrassed." Sonoko said happily.

Hearing their words, Ze Yu's face remained calm, but he disagreed in his heart and chuckled.

Male protagonist?
Is that thing worthy?

Do you really think Conan and Ze Yu are not human?

A protagonist of the original novel, a time traveler, either one of them would be the best candidate for the real protagonist, right?

Even if the role of the protagonist is given to Xiaolan, it will never be the turn of this rotten guy Masahiko!

He is just a supporting role, not worthy of being the protagonist, not even the temporary protagonist.

In order to wait for Masahiko, Sonoko and the other four stood at the door of the hotel, where they could shelter from the rain under the eaves so as not to get wet.

At this moment, the door of the hotel was suddenly opened, Kyogoku Makoto walked out without saying a word and placed an umbrella next to Sonoko.

Then he closed the door silently.

Sonoko stared at Kyogoku Makoto in a daze. After he closed the door and left, she shifted her gaze to the umbrella.

"What is this umbrella for? Is it for us?" Yuanzi was a little confused.

How could that guy with a bad attitude and a penchant for staring at people be so kind?

Ze Yu watched the scene quietly.

Kyogoku is really a tsundere.

Conan, who was standing by, rolled his eyes and reminded: "Maybe that big brother is also interested in Sister Sonoko."

"I think so too." Huihara Ai nodded in agreement: "At noon, I felt that his reaction was a little strange, but if he likes Sister Sonoko, everything can be explained."

As a girl, Haibara Ai's intuition is quite accurate. She has suspected since noon that Kyogoku Makoto is very likely Sonoko's secret admirer.

The reason why his attitude seemed so bad and he repeatedly interrupted the conversation between Sonoko and Masahiko was just because he was jealous.

Men are big pigs, so it's normal for them to be jealous.

Just like that kid Conan, he will get jealous whenever it involves Xiaolan.

The reactions of these big pigs are the same, and it is not difficult to guess.

"Eh? Is that so?" After hearing what Conan and Haibara Ai said, Sonoko blushed again.

She blushes really easily.

"You see, Sonoko, you are still quite popular." Xiaolan said with a smile.

"Don't say that, that guy always looks gloomy, I don't like him." Although Sonoko was secretly happy in her heart, she pretended to be dissatisfied on the surface.

"Yes, doesn't Sonoko have Mr. Masahiko now? Naturally she won't look down on other men." Xiaolan joked.

"Xiaolan, you are so annoying..." Sonoko said with a blushing face. "Sister Sonoko." Zeyu raised her head and suddenly interrupted: "Mr. Masahiko is not a good person."

"Hey? Xiaoyu, why do you think so?" Yuanzi was a little curious.

She and Masahiko were just ordinary friends who had just met today, not boyfriend and girlfriend. Even if Ze Yu said bad things about him, she would not be angry.

Sonoko was just curious about why Ze Yu came to this conclusion.

"Men with smooth talk are not good people." Ze Yu said seriously.

"But I like to listen to it." Sonoko was very frank and admitted it directly.

"Okay then." Ze Yu stopped talking.

Sonoko is quite vain, and like Uncle Maori, she likes to be praised by others.

Since she said so, Ze Yu didn't want to say anything more.

Anyway, time will prove that what he said is right, so there is no need to argue now.

"Oh, I seem to have forgotten my wallet in the room..." Sonoko frowned. She searched her pockets but couldn't find the most important wallet.

"Wait a moment, I'll go back to my room to get my wallet and be back soon." After saying that, Sonoko opened the door of the hotel and ran towards her room.

Soon, Yuanzi ran to the second floor, opened the door and walked into her room.

But because there was no light in the room, it was dark, and in the darkness, a dark shadow was lurking.

When the garden opened its gate, the dark shadow turned around and stared at her ferociously, with a strong murderous intent rolling in his eyes.

Yuanzi was frightened instantly and took a step back in fear. For a moment, she lost her composure and even forgot to alert others by screaming.

The black shadow pounced over in an instant and covered Yuanzi's mouth with his hand. Yuanzi hurriedly ran out the door, but she was quickly dragged into the room.

Even the door was closed by the dark shadow to prevent anyone from disturbing him.

In the room...

The black shadow pressed Yuanzi to the ground. In her terrified eyes, the black shadow's face was cold and merciless.

He covered Yuanzi's mouth with one hand and held the knife with the other hand, raising it high in the air. He was soon ready to stab and kill Yuanzi directly.

What this shadow doesn't know is...

On the other side of the window, there was another dark shadow watching them, as if he was watching a play, and was enjoying it very much.

The second black shadow had a ferocious and playful smile on his face, looking even more ferocious than the first one.

As the saying goes, when the mantis stalks the cicada, the oriole stalks behind.

The first black shadow acting as a praying mantis didn't know that he had already been targeted by the oriole.

He was now so focused on killing Yuanzi that he had no time to think about anything else.

In the room, Sonoko's mouth was covered, she stammered and couldn't utter a word, but tears filled her eyes, proving her grievance and fear.

Swish!
The black shadow grinned and sneered, and immediately stabbed forward with the knife in his hand, with a cold light flashing on the tip of the knife.

But at this moment...

boom!
With a loud bang, the black shadow felt a sudden pain in his palm, and the knife in his hand was knocked away before it fell.

At some point, the closed door was opened again, and a petite figure stood at the door, blocking the light from outside.
