Chapter 334: A Dusty Memory

In the evening, Officer Twilight arrives at the hospital with two detectives, Chiba and Takagi. They've already heard from their father. The prisoner may have been seen by Xiaolan, so he had a murderous intent. The police also said that they would attach great importance to this matter, and Chiba and Takagi were ready to take turns to protect Xiaolan.

After arranging the duty schedules of the two police officers, my mother received a message from Dr. Kazedo that Xiaolan's MRI results had come out. So, after temporarily saying goodbye to Officer Twilight, our family went to Dr. Kazeto's office again.

"According to the results of the MRI examination, Miss Xiaolan's brain did not show any damage. In the office, Dr. Kazedo showed us an MRI of Ran's brain. It seems that the cause of Ling Yuan's loss of memory is her own desire to escape the mental trauma, resulting in reverse forgetfulness. ”

"So, as long as you take the little girl to that hotel and re-enact the case again, it is possible for her to recover her memory?"

"What nonsense are you talking about!" the old mother immediately expressed her displeasure. "Isn't it painful for Ran in that case? The memories she didn't want to remember shouldn't be forced for her to remember. ”

"What then, do you wish Xiaolan couldn't recover her memory for the rest of her life?" said Dad anxiously.

"Anyway, I won't let her be tortured in any way!" the old mother did not show any weakness.

"Well... The two of you are at ease. Dr. Kazado pressed his hand and smiled awkwardly. In fact, if Miss Xiaolan is forced to think about it. I'm afraid it will stimulate her brain even more, and as a doctor, I don't recommend such a method. ”

"Hmmm... Dad was speechless.

Drip, drip, drip. As he spoke, the phone in Dr. Kado's office rang suddenly. Mom and Dad sat on the sidelines and muttered quietly while Dr. Kaze finished calling, while Conan whispered to me next to me.

"Kaoru, you don't seem to be in a hurry at all?"

"Will you be in a hurry to solve the problem?" I asked rhetorically. "I prefer action to urgency. In such a big place as a hospital, how can there be no monitoring of this kind of thing, it will be late at night, I will go to the monitoring room to check the monitoring near Xiaolan's ward, and it will be clear at a glance whether you have chased someone just now. ”

"No, I mean, you don't seem to be worried that Xiaolan will be hurt by the prisoners?"

"I'm not worried, am I more worried than anyone else?" I glanced at Conan with disdain. "I'm worried, so I've taken safety precautions, and Xiaolan is safer than ever with me. There's no point in showing a worried look at this time. ”

"Uh... I've forgotten that you still have power out there. Conan smiled and shook his head. "Isn't that just a way to conflict with the police?"

"They are in the light, I am in the dark, and there is no conflict. If there is any suspicious person, either the police will stop him, or my people will take him away. So don't worry. ”

"This... All right. "For this matter, Conan can't help a little except for solving the case this morning, if I have to say, it will probably help me protect Xiaolan together.

"That's right, doctor. Is there a natural way for my daughter to regain her memory?" asked the mother after Dr. Kazedo called.

"Hmm... In general, allowing the patient to live in a relaxed environment for a period of time may help with recovery. ”

"In that case ... Mom thought for a while, "Then, after Xiaolan is discharged from the hospital, I will move back to live with you." ”

"Nani?!"

"In this way, I can take care of Xiaolan, and Xiaolan can relax a lot. ”

"But... Dad stopped talking, but finally nodded. "Okay, I'll go back and clean up the house today. ”

———— the taste of the orchid, the taste of lavender, the taste of the home & the wings of the angel, the wings of the devil, the wings of the guardian————

Once upon a time, my mother left home because of my disappearance, and it is hard to imagine what kind of mood Xiaolan was in to face this matter at that time, and what kind of determination my mother made that decision, but now I am back. Although Xiaolan has lost her memory temporarily, this can be regarded as a reunion of our family, my mother wants to come back to take care of Xiaolan, on the other hand, I also revisited the family of four together, although there are some flaws, but it is better than nothing. At the same time, my mother also hopes that this can be of good help to Xiaolan.

Two days later, my father drove our family home in the heavy rain, and during the two days in the hospital, Xiaolan was not attacked by anyone, and I did not sense that anyone had any ill will towards Xiaolan. So we've had a pretty peaceful past two days. But what made me particularly depressed was that when I went to check the hospital's surveillance after dark, I found that the corridor of the ward where Xiaolan was located was not monitored, and the nearest surveillance was also in the lobby on the same floor. When I saw Conan and his dad coming out on the surveillance screen, I didn't see any suspicious people, either before or after. I can't help but wonder that Conan's reaction to murderous aura is still quite keen, and it is absolutely impossible to say that he is just suspicious. Without a certain certainty, Conan couldn't have rushed out of the door so impulsively about this matter, but I really didn't see any suspicious people in the surveillance, which also gave me a headache. However, Xiaolan has returned home safely now, and with the protection of the police and the three sisters of the Ning family around me, I can feel more at ease.

"This is the town where you lived for seventeen years after you were born. On the way, while driving, my father explained her original life to Xiaolan. "Do you have any impressions?"

"No. Not really. Xiaolan smiled and shook her head. Although she lost her memory, Xiaolan's gentleness has not changed, which is a great help for her to recover her memory.

Driving back to the door, Dad continued. "This is our home. ”

"Here... Māori detectives. "Xiaolan didn't seem to have any impression of this place.

"It's okay Sister Xiaolan, don't be in a hurry to reminisce, we have a lot of time. By Lan's side, I comforted me softly.

"Hmm. Lan turned her head to me and smiled softly.

"Alright, when we're home, let's get off. Mom greeted Xiaolan out of the car with an umbrella. "Be careful not to get caught in the rain. ”

"Hmmm... Ahh The body was still shaking, as if it had been stimulated by something. Conan's pupils and I shrank at the same time, and we glanced at each other, as if we understood what the other was thinking.

"Uh, Xiaolan, are you afraid of standing water?" Dad looked at the slippery road. "That's right, when Officer Sato was shot, there happened to be stagnant water in the bathroom. Yingli, you go open the door. I'll drive the car in a little bit, Officer Takagi, you get down first. ”

"Oh, good. Takagi got out of the car and went to the corridor first, while Dad drove the car against the gate, so that Xiaolan could get out of the car without touching the rain.

"Hey. Kaoru, do you think Xiaolan is really like that because of the stagnant water?"

"You mean umbrellas?" I said.

"Well, because when Xiaolan made a frightened expression, her eyes were fixed on the umbrella. Conan nodded.

"We're going back to studying, let's go back first. I motioned for Conan to lower his voice, this was not the place to speak.

"Good. ”

Takagi was in charge of reporting back to the bureau, while Officer Chiba was already on standby downstairs, and we accompanied Xiaolan back to this familiar and somewhat unfamiliar home for her.

"Welcome home, Ran. Dad opened the door looking happy. "This is my office, and I usually work from that desk. How's that?

"No. Xiaolan shook her head, looking apologetic.

"It's okay, let's go up to the third floor. Dad's brow furrowed but quickly let go, and with a smile on his face, he led the family up to the third floor again.

"This is where we live. Dad smiled at Xiaolan and pointed in the direction. "This is the living room and over there is the kitchen. And the front room is your bedroom. With that, Dad took Xiaolan to her bedroom, pushed the door and walked in, this should be the best place to help Xiaolan recover her memory.

Walking into the room, Xiaolan looked at the room that was called herself. Pale wallpaper with a gradient from purple to warm yellow. Lilac sheets, dark purple chairs, and lavender-toned curtains. At least half of the furniture in the entire room is purple. Although I didn't have much impression, after Xiaolan walked into this room, the deep attachment and longing in her eyes were clearly tightened by me.

"Here... I feel so missed. There was a hint of fluctuation in Xiaolan's gaze.

"Of course. This is the room you've lived in for seventeen years. Seeing that his daughter had a loose memory, the father hurriedly added a fire and said. "You know karate, look, this is the martial arts uniform you wore when you won the high school provincial competition, and the trophy on the table. ”

Hearing this, Xiaolan picked up the martial arts uniform hanging on the table, and after looking through it, she turned her eyes to the trophy on the table. But after staying on the trophy for less than a second, Xiaolan was attracted by two photo frames on the side, and a total of two photo frames were placed on Xiaolan's table, and there were two photos in them, one was a group photo of Xiaolan and Kudo, and the other was a family photo of our family more than ten years ago.

"This man is ... Xiaolan was the first to see a photo of herself and Kudo when she was seventeen years old.

"This kid is Shinichi Kudo who deceived you. Dad said unhappily. "This is a picture you took when you went to the tropical park with him. ”

"Kudo. Shinichi?" Ran tried to pronounce the name.

"How's that? Remember?" Conan said subconsciously.

"No. Not really. Xiaolan shook her head. Then she fixed her eyes on another photo. "This is ... ”

"It's our family portrait. Mom said with some regret. At the same time, his gaze swept over my body slightly. "We took it together eleven years ago. ”

"This boy ... There are four people in the photo, young parents, Xiaolan when she was a child, and a boy who has never seen before. Looking at the boy who met for the first time in the photo, Xiaolan's eyes suddenly flashed with a light of memory.

"This kid is your brother. Speaking of the eldest son, the father took the photo, reached out and gently wiped it on the photo, erasing the layer of dust on it, and at the same time a trace of sadness flashed on his face. "His name is Kaoru Mori. ”

"Kaoru?" Xiaolan subconsciously looked at me standing behind the person.

"Well, it's the same name as this kid called Ming Ya Kaoru. "Dad put his hand on my head. "It's just, ten years ago your brother he... Lost because of a car accident. Knowing that today, we don't have any news from him either. ”

"Kaoru... Brother. The dusty history was uncovered, and Xiao Lan's gaze, which had been in confusion, became a little focused. "Brother, he. . . Missing?"

"Xiaolan, do you have an impression of your brother?" Seeing Xiaolan's state, my mother's emotions became a little excited.

"Brother... Kaoru, brother. I have an impression. However, it is so vague. Xiaolan's eyebrows revealed a hint of pain. "Brother. Lavender.. Brooch... Car accident... Woo!!!" Suddenly, as soon as Xiaolan's hands were released, the martial arts uniform fell to the ground, and Xiaolan pressed her head in pain. Trembling unceasingly on his knees. "No, brother. Don't leave Xiaolan. Whining... Ahh!!!h

"Xiaolan!" Dad hurriedly stepped forward. Mom's eyes also became worried.

"Xiaolan. "When everyone was panicking, I was the only one who froze. "You... Do you remember me?"
