Chapter 189: Not Suitable for Travel
So, what is Kaeya's purpose?! Conan originally had a conspiracy theory that Kaeya was going to ask the Black Organization to help him get rid of Diluk so that he could get the Legendenfinder family, but now it seems that this is obviously not the case.
But since someone like Diluk did not choose to stop it, it shouldn't be a matter of murder or arson.
Haibara looked at Conan's anxious look and rolled her eyes.
He deserves it. It's his fault for being so curious in the first place.

A few days later, in a maple forest somewhere on the mountain.
In the silent maple forest, three figures were looming.
"Ms. Lisa, why don't I go back? I still feel it's not a good idea to leave all the work to Xiangling alone." Noelle followed Lisa, and halfway through the walk, he grabbed Lisa with an uneasy look on his face.
"Noel, it's okay. Xiangling specifically let you out to relax. Besides, there is always work to be done, and proper relaxation will allow you to do better work later." Lisa put one hand on Noel's shoulder and gently persuaded Noel.
"Yes, I heard from the traveler that you have been a little troubled by suitors recently. That's why Lisa took you out to relax this time. But, speaking of this, what did he do to make you so troubled, Noel?"
As soon as Kaia heard what the traveler said, he knew that Noel's suitor was Mr. Takano. He was a little curious about what the other party had done to make Noel, who was so good-tempered and helpful, want to avoid him.
"Pursuer? What pursuer?" Noelle was confused.
"Ah? You don't know?" Kaiya didn't expect Noelle to not know that someone was pursuing him. He looked at her strangely, "It's that Takano Hideki."
So how did Hideki Kono pursue Noelle in such a way that neither of them had any idea that she was pursuing them? Was it even more outrageous than his previous confession to the Traveler?
"Mr. Takano?" Noelle looked surprised, then suddenly realized, "So Mr. Takano's previous strange behavior was not because he was mentally ill, but because he was pursuing me."
"Oh, Noel, what you said makes me curious about what Mr. Takano did." Lisa was originally looking at the scenery, and after hearing what Noel just said, she also became interested.
“Nothing…” Noelle recalled, “Mr. Takano placed a lot of roses in front of my door on the first day, occupying the aisle. I was late that day because I had to deal with all those flowers.”
"The next day, Mr. Takano came to Wanmin Hall and asked Miss Xiangling to buy her shop. After being told that the house belonged to the traveler, he left."
"On the third day, Mr. Takano came to the store and gave me a card. He said he was sorry that he couldn't buy the restaurant so I wouldn't have to work. The card contained the money he was going to use to buy the restaurant, and he said it was his apology to me. Then he left. I had to catch up with him and did everything I could to return the card to Mr. Takano, which delayed my work."
"Then on the fourth day, Mr. Takano came to the restaurant again at mealtime and said he would pay for everyone. Then people in the restaurant ordered a lot of dishes that day, and Xiangling and I were almost overwhelmed."
Kaia was listening with great interest, but Noelle stopped talking halfway through. Kaia couldn't help but ask, "What's next?"
"Well... there was no follow-up." Noelle explained, "Afterwards, Mr. Takano never did such strange things again. Xiangling felt a little sorry for him. She seemed to have planned to teach him a lesson in secret if Mr. Takano affected Wanmintang's business again."
"Wow, he gave up so quickly." Kaia shook his head. He had thought that Hideki Takano could at least hold on for a week, but he was lucky. At least he escaped.
"So he just disappeared suddenly and never showed up again?" Kaia asked.
"That's not the case. A few days later, Mr. Takano showed up at the restaurant again and came to apologize to me. He said that he had met a princess and might not be able to escort me as a knight anymore..."
When Noelle heard what Mr. Takano said, she was confused and didn't understand what he was trying to say. She struggled with it for a few days and decided to ask him about it the next time she saw him.
It wasn't until today that she finally understood what he meant. However, Noelle recalled Mr. Takano's actions in pursuing people and was a little worried whether the "princess" that Mr. Takano mentioned could accept Mr. Takano's actions of pursuing her.
Kaiya: So you have a new goal. No wonder you gave up so quickly.
Lisa's eyes flashed. She always felt that with Mr. Takano's vision, the "princess" he had his eyes on was probably also an "acquaintance".
Now that it had passed, Lisa didn't plan to think too much about it anymore. She was a little curious about who the "princess" was and then let it go.
"By the way, Kaeya, haven't we reached the place Albedo mentioned yet?" She had heard Albedo mention that there was a special scenery nearby, so she pulled Noel out to relax.
Like she said before, proper relaxation is good for the body and mind, and she has no intention of giving up her life for work.
"We're almost there, not far ahead." Kaia pointed in the direction, "If you want to relax, why don't you and Noelle come alone? Why do you have to bring me along?"
He had been planning to have a few drinks today, but now his plans were ruined.
"Alas, Mona said that there will be bloodshed when we go out today, so we need you as a knight to protect us two ladies." Lisa sighed.
She had originally made an appointment with Mona to relax together, but before leaving, Mona used water divination to calculate and said that the trip would not go smoothly, so she refused the opportunity to relax.
Noelle had finally agreed to put down her work, and she couldn't let her make a wasted trip, so she had no choice but to go ahead and do it.
"...Lisa, do you still need someone to protect you?"
Kaiya's mouth twitched. The bloody disaster that Mona was talking about must not be referring to Lisa, but someone else.
"How can a lady do it herself?" Lisa was dissatisfied.
Kaiya couldn't argue with the other party, so he could only agree.
After walking a few more steps, some noises were heard from the front.
The voices sounded familiar. Kaia listened carefully and recognized them as those of Suzuki Sonoko and Mouri Ran. Suzuki Sonoko's voice was louder, and she was shouting "red handkerchief" or something.
Kaeya's eyes lit up. Since Ran Mouri and Sonoko Suzuki appeared here, it meant that Conan's child must be here too. It seemed that a murder was about to happen here. I wonder which unlucky guy will be killed by Conan, the god of death, today.
