Stay away from Conan

"So, Miss Koizumi, what happened?"

Earlier in the day, at Mingzhi's house, after Xiao Ai hung up the call with Koizumi Hongzi, it didn't take long for Koizumi Hongzi to arrive at Gao Yuan's home in a hurry and was invited by Xiao Ai to the living room.

In response to this, seeing Koizumi Hongzi's anxious look, Gao Yuan could only ask helplessly. Thinking that the matter was at this point, he could only help Koizumi Hongzi find the things as much as possible -

"The specific situation will start after you and Edogawa went to the island."

However, before Koizumi Hongzi could open her mouth to explain, Xiao Ai on the side spoke up first.

In response, Gao Yuan unexpectedly looked at Xiao Ai, who was sitting on the double sofa with Koizumi Hongzi, and blinked. He felt that Xiao Ai would be the first to explain this matter, which was clearly caused by Koizumi Hongzi losing her necklace. The development of the situation is a bit shocking.

However, seeing that Koizumi Hongzi did not interrupt, Gao Yuan had no choice but to listen to Xiao Ai's continued explanation——

"It is said that palmistry originated in India and was introduced to the Middle East via Mesopotamia."

On the weekend when Gao Yuan and Conan went to Moon Shadow Island, Xiao Ai, who originally planned to stay at home, was invited by the other three members of the Young Detective Team: Yoshida Ayumi, Tsuburaya Mitsuhiko and Kojima Genta. After going out to play, the four of them came to the bookstore in Mihua Town.

Among them, under the leadership of Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya, the four of them first found a book about palmistry and fortune telling, and then Ayumi Yoshida and Genta Kojima read it together and read the contents. ——

“It is recorded in the Old Testament that ‘when every person is born, God will carve various lines on the palm of his hand as a kind of mark so that all people will know what he has done’.”

"what does it mean?"

After Mitsuhiko read this sentence, Genta on the side said in confusion.

Seeing this, Xiao Ai, who was completely uninterested in the book the three of them were reading, said helplessly:

"That is to say, palmistry depicts the destiny given by God."

While saying this, Xiao Ai also expressed his thoughts somewhat coldly:

"However, in the final analysis, fortune telling is just a profession that uses other people's misfortunes to stir up other people's uneasy emotions and make money. If it must be said, the methods used are nothing more than some psychological knowledge. That’s all.”

"Huh? Is that so?"

Hearing Xiao Ai say this, Guangyan said with some surprise.

"yes."

In this regard, Xiao Ai continued:

"Everyone has worries, and young girls have worries. For example, when will they get a boyfriend, when will they get married, and so on. After they get a boyfriend, they will worry about whether the other person will bother them and whether they will be tired of themselves. Abandon yourself... In short, your worries will never end once you start.

"And fortune tellers are just a profession that uses sweet words to get rid of people's uneasiness and make money."

"That's it..."

Hearing this, Ayumi, who was originally quite strong-willed, said with some disappointment.

"So? Why are you suddenly so interested in fortune telling?"

Looking at the behavior of Bumi and the others after listening to his words, Xiao Ai was still a little confused and asked the doubts in his heart.

In this regard, Mitsuhiko hesitated for a moment and finally told the reason——

"Haihara-san, did you know? Over at the Mihua Municipal Building, there was a fortune teller who came here recently who was very accurate! Moreover, that fortune teller even figured out my grandfather's lung disease. Really? It’s so magical! So, today we want to see what fortune telling is all about?”

Hearing this, Xiao Ai was not surprised at all and said calmly:

"I can figure out that kind of thing."

"Huh?"

As soon as these words came out, Guangyan and the other three people immediately showed surprised expressions, waiting for Xiao Ai's explanation.

And Xiao Ai didn’t either
