Chapter 117: Under the Sun

Early the next morning, Conan put on his schoolbag and went to school. Xiaolan also went to Didan High School to attend classes, and my father went out to play mahjong after cleaning up our room last night and came back late, and now he is still catching up on sleep. I haven't gotten a transfer certificate from Didan Elementary School yet, so I'm sitting alone in front of the window of the detective agency looking at the scenery outside.

"The sun is so dazzling......" Looking at the sun in the sky, I couldn't help but raise my hand to block the sunlight that came into view. But he was reluctant to leave. Instead, I enjoyed the sunshine. "Can I really stay in the sun?" looked at the sparkle streaming from his fingers. A hint of confusion poured into my heart.

"Because you, Kaoru Mori, are my important companion!" Conan's words still echoed in my ears, and gradually, my thoughts drifted back to last night.

"I mean, do you two know what time it is!" Just as Conan and I were confronting each other to the last moment, Xiaolan suddenly pushed open the door and shouted at the two of us. It scared Conan and I out of the blue.

"It's already so late, how can you get up to school tomorrow if you don't sleep? Xiaolan looked at the two of us with her hands crossed and frowned.

"Yes, I'm sorry!"

"Yes, I'm sorry!"

Conan and I bowed and apologized at the same time.

"Really, although I'm glad that the two of you got acquainted so quickly, you can't talk too late and delay your rest, you have to go to school tomorrow. Seeing that we apologized, Xiaolan's anger also disappeared a lot. With a hint of complaint, he preached to us. "Alright, you two lie down and go to sleep, I'm shut. ”

"Hi~~~"

"Hi~~~"

After the words. Conan and I hurried into our respective covers. watched Xiaolan close the door and walk out, and then the room was quiet.

"Snort...... Hahaha. ”

"Hmph...... Hahahahaha. After a brief silence, two laughs rang out in unison.

"I really didn't expect that Xiaolan, who was chasing after me ten years ago, has begun to discipline me now. I laughed. "What's the solution. Who made us such a body now? Conan smiled at me from ear to ear. The two of them laughed happily like children who had made a mistake.

After about half a minute, I lay on the tatami mat and looked at the ceiling and said lightly. "Partner? ”

"Really?" replied Conan. "Don't worry. You've returned to your home. We all have unfinished business, but you have taken your first step anyway. That's a good place to start. With that, Conan sat up again and held out his right hand to me. "So, to celebrate that you were able to return to the sun from new. Kaoru, let's introduce myself anew. Conan Edogawa is a detective, so please advise me in the future. ”

"It's really ......" Seeing Conan's serious appearance, I also sat up helplessly. "Kaoru Mingya. It's a killer. ”

"Hey, hey......" Conan squinted at me.

"Haha, it's a former killer, so please give me a lot of advice, detective. As I spoke, I held out my hand as well. Shook with Conan's right hand.

Pulling my thoughts back, I closed my eyes and enjoyed the sunlight outside the window. For the first time, I felt that the sun was shining on my body so warm and comfortable.

"Whew......" let out a long breath. I began to gather my thoughts, and although I talked a lot with Conan yesterday, he didn't ask me about the organization. As he said, he only asked me about my situation last night, which means that one day he will ask me about the organization, and of course there are some things I can't tell him, such as Akemi. For example, Shiho, and for example, I want to destroy Miè's organization's plan. But it's still a long way to go. I'll need some time to prepare, and the skinny wolf is just getting started. The whole island has just started to be built, and it may be that the design drawings have not been completed.

Thinking of Jingliu, I said that I chatted with Conan last night, and I forgot to report my safety to Jingliu, so I took out my mobile phone and prepared to make a call to Jingliu, but the number was not pressed yet, so I gave up this idea. Anyway, I don't have much to do right now, so I just went back and took a look. So, I walked out of the Maori detective agency, saw that there was no one on the street, drew my car directly from the necklace, and drove away in the dust.

――――The smell of orchids, the taste of lavender, the taste of home > the wings of angels, the wings of demons, the wings of guardians――――

The distance was not far, and soon I arrived in front of my villa, but the door was unexpectedly quiet, according to common sense, Ning Xue should have at least one person guarding outside. So I reached out and knocked on the door.

Knock knock

"Who?" came a sweet voice from the door, it turned out to be at home.

"It's Sister Jingliu, I'm back. I shouted inside the door.

"Allah, Bing, welcome back~" Shizuru heard my voice and ran quickly to open the door. But......

"Wow, Sister Shizuliu, what's the situation with you!" I couldn't help but be startled when I looked at the oncoming Shizuru. Because now Shizuryu's sweet face is covered with notes.

"Well, this, hee-hee, forget to take it off. Shizuru smiled embarrassedly, then took down the notes from his face one by one, and welcomed me through the door. "Cher and I were playing poker. Didn't expect you to come back. ”

"Hey...... You're so laid-back. Walking into the door, I squinted my half-moon eyes and looked at Ning Xue and the three sisters who were also full of papers. This is me, what if someone else scares people.

"Mr. Minya. ”

"Mr. Minya. ”

"Mr. Minya. The third girl quickly tore off the note from her face and got up to say hello to me.

"Well, sit down. I said indifferently.

"Bing, why did you come back so soon?" asked Shizuru as he sat down next to me.

"Ah, I'll come back today if I don't have anything to do. I've met with them yesterday and stayed there, and there's still a long time to follow. So there's no rush. I sat down on the couch and said relaxedly. "As for you, such a leisurely appearance, it seems that there is nothing going on with the thin wolf?"

"Yes, Mr. Minya. Ning Xue hurriedly responded. "The boss has already gone back to the Gunma base to make a deployment, and our resources have begun to be transported to that island one after another. ”

“...... Ayuki. There's something I want to ask you. Looking at Ning Xue's appearance, I suddenly raised my eyebrows.

"Huh?"

"You...... Your arm hasn't recovered yet, how did you play cards just now?"

"Huh, I'm ......" heard my question. Ning Xue's face turned red when she brushed it. Standing in front of me I don't know how to answer.

"Hahahaha......" I laughed, and sure enough, it was more fun than anything to flirt with a beautiful woman who couldn't contradict you. "Hey, hey. Just kidding, kidding. I slowly retracted my smile. "Get down to business, help me contact him. ”

"Okay, wait a minute. Hearing that I was going to get down to business, the blush on Ning Xue's face slowly receded, and she took out her laptop from the room. Got in touch for me. Within minutes, the skinny wolf appeared on the other side of the screen.

"Allah, Mr. Flowwind, aren't you busy, why are you back?" said the thin wolf's ugly voice through Mike.

"Ahh I'm a little worried about the swift side, and by the way, there are some other things. So come back and see, what's going on?" I plucked my ears out of my conscience.

"Swift?...... They are still quite well-behaved, after all, the limelight has not passed yet, and both of them still have injuries on their bodies. So it's been well hidden. The skinny wolf shrugged. "Mr. Flowwind. I'm starting to move one after another, I wonder when you'll have time to visit the island?"

"Let's finish the building complex on the other side of our base first, so that we can have the capital to face the outside world. That's right. At this point, I suddenly remembered, is the fingerprint recognition gun I used last time still in stock?" I thought for a moment. Since the last time I fought with the Soul Death, I didn't even have any weapons at hand, and I didn't have a weapon with me, so to be honest, it was quite uncomfortable. Although there is still an ordinary sand eagle in his hand. However, after using high-end goods, I am afraid that there will be some accidents when I use ordinary ones.

"Well, we won't be able to do it anytime soon. However, if you go all out, you can do it in about two weeks. Is this okay, Mr. Wind?" said the thin wolf, rubbing his temples.

"Ahh It's okay, that's not in a hurry. First of all, I made the body armor I wanted, that is more important. I frowned. The gun at hand can be used for the time being. There are a lot of SAS, but body armor is more important, I still don't know when I'll meet Akemi, and I'll have to ask Conan when I go back, if I accidentally delay, it won't be easy.

"I see, one for women, one for children, we've already set out to do it again. It will be delivered to you in a week or two at most. The thin wolf responded. "By the way, Mr. Liufeng, if you don't have anything to do lately, can you continue to get some tasks from me to do?"

"Mission?" I raised an eyebrow.

"Ah, although we still have nearly 100 billion assets in our hands, I don't think that is enough to support us to build the entire island, the so-called mosquito is meat no matter how small. I still have a lot of millions of yen tasks at hand, I wonder if Mr. Liufeng is interested?"

"Well, then I'll ......" I stopped halfway through. Because now my mind is reminded of the words that Conan said to me last night.

“...... Seeing that I was silent, the thin wolf subconsciously called out to me.

"Ah......h "Not for the time being, I may not have a chance to take on those big tasks in the near future, so update your task list to me once a month. Big or small, if I have time, I'll do it. I said with some confusion.

"Okay, then I'll trouble Mr. Liufeng, I'll go and prepare a task list, I don't know if Mr. Liufeng has anything else to order?"

"Well, there's nothing to do for the time being, remember to analyze more with Jingliu when building the island, we need to build the entire island easy to defend and difficult to attack, and all checkpoints must be strict. No other forces must be allowed to invade it. ”

"I see. Then I wish you good luck and prosperity, and I won't bother. With that, the thin wolf took the lead in turning off the video call.

"Whew......" let out a long breath. I leaned back on the couch a little sluggishly. Looking at my state, the four people in the family didn't know what to say.

"Bing, do you want to stay for lunch today?" Soon after, Shizuru took the lead in breaking the silence in the house.

"Is this already the time?" I looked at my watch, and saw that the time was almost eleven. "Well, it looks like I can't go back to lunch in time, so let's eat here. I nodded.

"Then, Mr. Mingya, Yue'er and I will go grocery shopping, and Shuang'er will stay outside to guard. Ning Xue saw that I had something on my mind, so she quickly separated her sisters and herself.

"Ah, please, Axue. I said with a slight smile.

Soon the three of them left, leaving only me and Shizuru in the room. Looking at the gentle still stream, my mood cleared up slightly.

"Would you like to hear about it?" I asked Shizuru with some amusement.

"If you want to say it, of course I'm willing to listen. Shizuru smiled softly at me.

"Huh...... Well. Hearing Shizuru's words, I couldn't help but smile lightly. Sure enough, no matter what I said, she understood what I meant immediately. "Now, Sister Shizuru, I have a question for you. As I spoke, I stood up and walked to the window of my room. Looking at the swaying shadows of the trees outside the window, with a touch of sadness, I whispered. "Do you think a person like me can really stand in the sun?"

Sitting on the couch, Shizuru didn't answer me, and I didn't turn around to ask her again, just closed my eyes and listened to the breeze blowing in my ears outside the window. Gradually, I heard footsteps behind me, and it was a still stream slowly walking towards me. Then, a soft touch pressed against my back. With the fragrance of jasmine, Shizuru gently hugged me into my arms. didn't say a word, didn't make any extra movements, just hugged it gently. Turning my head sideways, I looked at the still stream with my eyes slightly closed, and a faint smile filled the corners of my mouth.

"I see, thank you, Sister Shizuru. Really, thank you. (To be continued)
