Chapter 114: Family

"Now, Kaoru. "On the way back, Conan and I sat on the Doctor's Beetle, the front row of me looking out the window all the way, while Conan in the back seat was with his head down and pondering, my presence causing a rare confusion in his brain. Indeed, a good friend who has been missing for ten years. Suddenly appearing by his side as a killer is unacceptable to anyone.

"Huh, what?" I replied, looking out the window.

"You...... Are you going to tell Sù Xiaolan and Uncle Maori who you are?" Conan's face was a little solemn.

"How is that possible...... I don't want to involve them. Besides, if I'm exposed, won't it mean you're exposed?" I said helplessly. Now that my body is smaller, if my identity is revealed, then Conan's identity will also be detected. I'm actually okay.,I'm just an ordinary person whose identity is not known to the world.,But once Conan is known by others as Kudo Shinichi, it's trouble.,The organization is holding his information.,Once confirmed.,Not only Kudo is in danger.,Even the people around him can't escape the involvement.。 "Rest assured, I won't reveal my identity until I turn myself back into Kaoru Mori. It was too dangerous for Xiaolan and her parents. But I'd like to ask you, Kudo, Uncle Yusaku already knows about you, right?" I looked back at Conan.

"Ah, Mom and Dad already knew my identity some time ago. Conan said slightly sternly. "But I'm telling them not to get involved in this matter, and I'm going to get that organization out on my own. ”

"Hehe, it's still the same as before. I chuckled. Speaking of which, Yusaku Kudo and Yukiko Kudo are so relieved that their sons are facing such a huge organization alone, is it because the Kudo couple has the bottom in their hearts? Or is Kudo Shinichi not their own at all. Sit in the front seat. I couldn't help but make up for the couple's appearance.

"So, how are you going to stay home? you need a reason, right?" asked Conan.

"Ah, it's good to be like you. Just when I was a distant relative of the Ph.D., my parents were busy abroad. He didn't have time to take care of me, so he put me in foster care with the doctor. Then the doctor, because it was inconvenient for a bachelor, asked me to go to the Maori detective agency to foster with you. Well, it's foster care. I pulled a check out of my bosom and handed it to Dr. Asasa.

"Oh, yes...... One, ten, hundred. Thousands, thousands...... Five, fifty million, that's too much. The doctor's eyes widened. Even the hand that controlled the steering wheel trembled fiercely.

"Hey, look at the road, Doctor!" I shouted, grabbing my seat belt.

“…… How do you know?" Conan didn't panic, but looked at me suspiciously. "How do you know I'm using such an excuse. ”

"Forehead...... "Damn, I forgot about it." Conan's curiosity is heavier than that of a cat. "I ...... I guess that since Uncle Yusaku and Sister Yukiko can leave you in Japan with such peace of mind to travel abroad, then it proves that they agreed to your continued residence in the Maori Detective Agency. I don't know what the method is, but as your lifeline, the way of foster care must be based on the doctor, so I guess your parents must have gone to the Maori detective agency in disguise, explained your situation, and gave my father about your child support. Right?"

"That's right......" Conan looked at me intently. Seeing it, my forehead was almost sweaty, so I smiled indifferently and leaned back on the back of the car seat.

"Hey...... What are you laughing at?" I squinted at Conan.

"It's nothing, it's just that I remembered that you used to call my mother Sister Yukiko. I didn't expect that ten years later, you would still call her that. Conan clasped his hands behind his head. It's like a memory.

"Ah, if you don't call your sister, you're going to be bullied by her. I leaned back in my chair with the same relief and continued to look out the window. Memories of the past keep coming back to my mind, and perhaps Conan's mind is also the same as the memories of when we were five or six years old, but they can only be memories. Because it seems to me. Now in front of him is me. And not the one he knew Kaoru Mori. Whether he will be able to let go of me is still unknown.

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

......Shh

The car came to a slow stop. When I got out of the car, I was greeted by the door of a full-fledged Maori detective agency.

"Gollum. ”

I swallowed nervously. Although I have been separated for ten years, this scene of meeting my family still makes me a little excited.

"Are you nervous?" Conan asked casually when he saw me.

"Can you not be nervous? I haven't seen you in ten years. I shook my head. "Let's go, I hope I won't be recognized. Taking a deep breath, I walked up the steps leading to the Maori Detective Agency.

Knock knock.

"Here, who is it?" On the other side of the door, a crisp and gentle voice came, and in an instant, my heart beat fiercely.

"Oooh. I'm Dr. Asasa, and I'm sending Conan back. Dr. Asasa called out into the room. Soon, the room was opened.

"Dr. Asasa, good evening. Xiaolan smiled and greeted Dr. Asasa.

"Ah, good evening, Xiaolan, I'm sorry, I left Conan there for too long. ”

"Oh no, it's okay. Xiaolan hurriedly waved her hand. "I would like to thank Dr. Asasa for sending him back. By the way, what about the Conans?" Xiaolan only saw Dr. Asasa's figure, and did not see Conan, but soon, by Dr. Asasa's side, Conan walked out in a flash.

"I'm here, Sister Lan. Conan smiled.

"Really, if you forget to take the notebook, you have to say hello to me before leaving. I've been worried for so long. Xiaolan crossed her hands on her hips and asked Conan with a frown.

"Hey, I'm sorry. Conan scratched his head and smiled sheepishly.

"Oh yes, Lan. What about Mr. Maori?" Dr. Asasa interrupted the conversation between the two men, after all, they had one more business to do today.

"Ahh I forgot about it. Xiaolan hurriedly turned around and shouted into the room. "Dad, Dr. Asa is here, hurry up!"

"Huh......" Hearing Xiaolan's shout, Maori Kogoro, who had been lying on the table for a long time, woke up slowly. "What's wrong, Xiaolan, are you eating? haah~~"

"What a meal, Dr. Asasa is here. Don't be rude, hurry up. Xiaolan walked over to the table and shook Maori, who was still a little unconscious.

"Ahh Dr. Asasa, long time no see. Mori Kogoro shook his head, finally sobering up. So I said hello to Dr. Asasa.

"Haha, it's been a long time since I've seen Maori. You're still the same. Dr. Asa said politely.

"Ah, I wonder what happened to Dr. Asasa here?" Conan used to know how many times he went back and forth between his house and Dr. Asasa's house. But there are very few things that have been sent back to Dr. Asasa like this. Unless Dr. Asasa has something to say, or something to ask for. "Is it Conan, this little ghost, is causing you some trouble, really, it's still running around at night, hurry up and apologize, little ghost. He said. Maori raised his fist and was about to shoot at Conan.

"Wow...... Help, Sister Xiaolan. Conan hurriedly ducked behind Lan.

"Ah, no, no. Not really. Dr. Asa hurriedly waved his hand. "Honestly, Maori, I have something I want to ask you for this time. ”

"Well, please, do you want me to investigate any case?" Mori gave up chasing Conan and looked at Dr. Asa with some confusion. "No, that's the case...... Dr. Asasa scratched his cheeks helplessly. "Two days ago, a distant relative of mine was going to England for business. But it was inconvenient to take the child, so I entrusted him to me. But as you know, I'm a bachelor who can't even take care of myself. So after Conan, I want to foster a child with you, I don't know if you can accept Maori. ”

"Where's another child?" Xiaolan was the first to respond. Except for Conan. She didn't see any other children.

"Well, he's a little shy. Dr. Asa walked back to the door, "Now. Kaoru, come out and meet everyone...... Whining. Before Dr. Asa could finish his sentence, he covered his mouth, of course, because he had just called my name. Cauterize.

"Dr. Asasa, you've done a great job...... I squinted at Dr. Asa with disdainful eyes. He let out a long breath and walked slowly through the door. Although it has been prepared for a long time. But when Xiaolan and Dad's eyes focused on me, an urge to cry still arose. Fortunately, the long-term killer infiltration training has allowed me to restrain my feelings very well. Otherwise, I'm really afraid of making a fool of myself in public.

"Kaoru?Dr. Kaoru, you said this kid is called Kaoru?!"

"Kaoru, Dr. Kaoru, you said this kid is called Kaoru?!" I walked through the door, and before I could speak, two surprised voices rang out in unison.

"Hmm...... Yes...... That one. Dr. Asa was a little overwhelmed.

"Well, hello Xiaolan...... Sister, Uncle Maori. My name is Kaoru, Kaoru Mingya, please advise!" I smiled and looked at the two relatives in front of me, hoping that they would not find out who I was.

"Kaoru...... Brother?"

Just as I was still trying to keep my smile on, a gentle voice slammed into my ears. My heart twitched violently. Facing Xiaolan's bewildered gaze, my heart began to beat faster and faster.

"What are you talking about, Lan. Mori Kogoro looked at his daughter with some curiosity.

"Huh?" Coming back to her senses, Xiaolan looked at her father, and then at the child in front of her, who was no longer afraid to speak. "Ah, I'm sorry, I was wrong for a moment. Lan smiled apologetically at me. "I'm sorry, hello, Kaoru, my name is Mao Lilan, you can call me Sister Lan. I'm really sorry just now that I saw you as someone else. Xiaolan's gaze dimmed. "Because, I have an older brother who has been separated since childhood, and he is also called Kaoru. Xiaolan slowly knelt in front of me. Look at me carefully. "But, it's really so. Purple eyes like my brother. The same gentle face, and ...... The same warm smell of lavender. Xiaolan looked at me tenderly, her same lilac pupils full of nostalgic fluctuations, as if she didn't pay attention, crystal tears would slip down her delicate face. Involuntarily, Xiaolan took me into her arms.

"Xiaolan...... Sister?" Xiaolan's movements touched me a little involuntarily. At this moment, I really want to sue her, you read that right, I am your brother. But reason told me that I couldn't do that. So, Xiaolan, who had just exited, immediately added the word "sister". The words that were originally touching turned into doubts in an instant.

"I'm sorry, Kaoru-chan. Xiaolan said with some trembling. "I don't know why, but when I see Kaoru, I feel so nostalgic. I'm sorry, can you let me hug me like this for a while?" Ignoring my answer, Xiaolan's clasped hands tightened my grip again.

"......" Everyone looked at Yiqiqi in front of them quietly, there were no extra words, at this moment, I gave up any excuse, the pale golden hair on my forehead covered my face, no one knew what I was thinking at this moment, but, if I had to say how I felt now. I'm going to tell everybody that feeling is called blood connection. (To be continued)
