Chapter 5: Car Accidents and Brooches

What really happened that night?

We pull the camera to the hero of the event. The following will be a first-person perspective on Kaoru Mori.

After we finished dinner. I took Xiaolan and walked to my father's place of work. At night, the surroundings are always brightly lit. Xiaolan will take a look here for a while, and look at it over there for a while. Even though Mom and Dad used to take us out to play in the evenings. But like this time, only two of us brothers and sisters came out. It's the first time for Xiaolan.

"Wow, brother, look. This orchid brooch is so beautiful. Xiaolan stood by a small jewelry store on the side of the road and looked at the brooch inside.

"Huh. Xiaolan still likes orchids so much?" I smiled.

"Of course. Because my name is Lan~" Xiao Lan grinned at me with her little white teeth.

"That's right. Then we'll go to Dad's in a moment. Let Daddy pay for you. I smiled and stroked Lan's head. "Let's go. Let's go to Daddy's. ”

"Hmm~" Xiaolan obediently followed behind me. But her big lilac eyes were always looking around. It seems to be full of curiosity about the surrounding qiē. Look at her excitement. I feel happy from the bottom of my heart.

Turn the corner. We walked into a small dark alley. The surroundings are quiet. Only cicadas chirping and dogs barking can be heard. Probably because of disrepair. In the middle of the alley the street lamp is broken. Twinkle and twinkle. It looks a little eerie.

"Brother...... I'm afraid. "Xiaolan grabbed my clothes tightly. I looked back at her scared face, then stroked her head and smiled. "Stupid, what's so scary. It's just night. ”

"But I'm just scared. Looking at Xiaolan's appearance that she was about to cry. I just felt funny.

"Alright. Xiaolan is good. Follow me. He said. I took Lan's hand and walked down the alley.

"Brother......

"Huh?"

"Is it okay for you to carry me......"

"......" I stopped. looked back at Xiaolan with a look of grievance and expectation. That cute look made me powerless to refute any of her words.

"Come, come up. I crouched down with my back to her.

"Hmm. Brother is the best~" said Xiaolan and jumped on my back.

"But Xiaolan, you have to grab the lunch box. If you knock over your father, you won't have anything to eat. ”

"Uh-huh. I know~" Xiaolan leaned on my shoulder with great enjoyment.

Smile slightly. I walked forward again. Walked to the middle of the alley. That is, the darkest place. I asked.

"Xiaolan. Are you still afraid?"

"No. Not at all afraid. ”

"Hmm, Xiaolan is so brave. ”

"Hee-hee. Because it is safe to lie on her brother's back, Xiaolan will not be afraid. He said. Xiaolan tightened her arms.

"Huh. Well. Don't worry, Xiaolan, my brother will always protect you. But...... Can you let go of your hand? I'm running out of breath. ”

"Don't. Xiaolan wants to hold on to her brother tightly~"

"Huh. Yes, yes~little princess~" I replied with a smile.

Soon. And we walked out of the darkness. Back to the bustling streets again. But Ran didn't want to get off my back. So I continued to carry her on my back. I walked all the way to the door of the police station.

"Wow. Brother brother. You see, you see. It's an orchid brooch again. Na, there's lavender~" Roadside. Xiaolan saw another jewelry store. Jumped off my back excitedly.

Looking at the bouncing Xiaolan. I can only laugh. Followed.

"Xiaolan. Let's go and bring dinner to Daddy first. I'll come back and see it later. Otherwise, Dad would be hungry. ”

"Eh, uh-huh......" Xiaolan looked at the two brooches with some reluctance. But I still obediently took my little hand and walked forward.

Arrived at the police station. The security guard at the door didn't stop us either. Because they all know me and Xiaolan. So we walked smoothly to my father's office.

No knock yet. I heard my father's complaint inside the door. "Ahh Really. I really want to eat Kaoru's Chinese food......"

Forehead...... I squinted my half-moon eyes and shouted from this side of the door. "Really. Dad. If you want to eat, just say it. I'll send it to you. After that, Xiaolan and I pushed the door in.

Apparently my dad was a little surprised to see me and Lan coming. "Huh, Kaoru, and Lan, why are you here?"

"On my mother's orders. I'm here to bring food to my father. I smiled. He handed over the lunch box in his hand.

"That's right. Hehe, it's really hard for you. Dad picked up Xiaolan with one hand. With a lunch box in one hand, he walked towards his desk. Lay down Xiaolan. Dad opened the food box and looked at the hearty dishes inside. It's almost watering.

I pulled up a chair and sat next to my dad. Look at his surprised look. couldn't help but show half-moon eyes. Daddy's appearance now is just as short as those two mustaches. Otherwise, it must be exactly the same as the lewd uncle a few years later......

Dad picked up the chopsticks and began to eat. Just ate two bites though. I noticed that he was scratching with his left hand in the air. Smiling, I pulled out the beer I had just secretly brought from home from my pocket. It was placed in front of my father.

Looking at my father's eyes that were about to burst into tears. I couldn't help but squint my half-moon eyes again.

"Hey, hey. is worthy of being a good son of his father. When you go back, your dad rewards you with a thousand dollars in pocket money. Dad smiled lewdly at me.

"Forget it. Dad. I looked at him with disdain. "How many times have you given me pocket money not to let me buy beer for you. ”

"Yes...... Is it?" "Dad's eyes turned into beanie eyes. "Haha...... That's embarrassing. Sue sù dad what toys you want to buy. I'll buy it for you when I go back. ”

"Uh. Give me a thousand dollars. He thought about it and said. "Just now, Xiaolan took a fancy to an orchid brooch. I want to buy it for her. ”

Dad was happy, too. I was given a thousand-dollar bill. After taking the money and saying hello to my father, I was ready to take Xiaolan back.

When looking back. Orchid is having fun riding Officer Twilight's big belly.

"Xiaolan. I'm going back. I said hello.

"Hmm~I see~" Xiaolan got out of Officer Twilight's arms. Walked up to me. I bowed slightly to Officer Twilight. Then he led Xiaolan out of the Metropolitan Police Department.

Just walked out of the Metropolitan Police Department. Xiaolan quickly ran to the jewelry store just now. Look at those two delicate brooches just now.

Follow in Xiaolan's footsteps. I walked into the jewelry store.

"Little brother. Did you bring your sister here?" I was talking to a clerk's sister.

"Hmm~ Hello sister~ My sister loves that orchid brooch very much. Please take it off for me~" I smiled at the clerk's sister with my little white teeth.

"Huh. Good. The brooch of that orchid is 600 yuan. Little brother, do you have any money?"

"Hmm. Dad just gave it to me. It's 1,000 yuan~" I handed the money to that sister.

"Huh. Ok little brother. Please wait. ”

Watching the sister turn around and go back to get the brooch. I exhaled deeply...... Really. It's really tiring to pretend to be a child. Although he is only six years old now......

Probably because of the relationship of crossing. It's also possible that you've been with your family for a long time. Even with memories of past lives. Those memories are becoming more and more fragmented and blurred. And his heart is becoming more and more like a child.

"Alright, little brother. Here you go~" The clerk's sister put a brand new brooch in my hand.

"Hmm~ Thank you, sister. "Take the brooch. I walked towards Xiaolan. Because the clerk brought me a new one. So Xiaolan was still lying on the counter looking at the brooch inside.

"Xiaolan. "I stepped forward. "Here's to you. I handed the orchid brooch in my hand to Lan.

"Brother. This is ......" Xiaolan wondered

"I just asked my dad for money. I bought it for you. Take it. I looked at Lan with a smile

"Hey, hey~ uh-huh. Xiaolan excitedly took the orchid brooch.

"That. Let's go back. I touched Xiaolan's head and said.

"Na...... Brother. ”

"Huh?"

"That...... I want that lavender brooch too. Xiaolan said a little embarrassed, pointing to another brooch on the counter.

"Lavender?" I looked at Lan's hand. A purple lavender brooch shines on the counter. And its list price is also 600 yuan.

"I'm sorry, Xiaolan. My brother only asked for a thousand dollars from my father. There's no way to buy that. I looked at Xiaolan apologetically and said.

"That'...... Brother. Xiaolan doesn't want this orchid's brooch anymore. Xiaolan wants that. With that, Xiaolan ran to the clerk's sister who was looking for money for me in the back.

"Naw. Big sister. Could you please replace this orchid brooch with a lavender brooch?"

"Eh, little sister. Yes, yes. But why change it?" the clerk's sister was also curious. After all, this little girl has been looking at the brooch of the orchid since just now.

"Hmm...... Because I want to give that lavender brooch to my brother. ”

"Huh?" I looked at Lan in surprise.

"My brother has always liked Xiaolan very much, and he always thinks about Xiaolan first when he has anything. Therefore, this time Xiaolan also wanted to send something to her brother. Xiao Lan gritted her little white teeth and smiled at the clerk.

"Huh. Little sister. You're so good. Naw. My sister will charge you 1,000 yuan this time and sell you both brooches. The clerk also smiled happily and squatted down and touched Xiaolan's head.

"Eh, really, thank you, big sister~" Xiaolan looked very happy. He took the two brooches and ran towards me.

"Naw. Brother. This one is up to you. Ran happily handed me the lavender brooch.

"Xiaolan. You...... Hehe. I know, then I'll take it, thank you Xiaolan. I petted her head dotingly. Then he turned around and greeted the clerk, and then pulled Xiaolan out of the store.

Along the way, Xiaolan has been playing with the brooch of the orchid. It seems that she really likes that little thing. I looked at the lavender brooch and lost my mind. But still hold it tightly in your hand.

Turn the corner. We're going to go through that eerie path again. Same as when you came. As soon as I got to the corner, Xiaolan raised her hands high at me. I've been watching this action for almost two years. After a doting smile. I crouched down with my back to Lan.

"Come on. Come on. I turned back to Little Landau.

"Hee-hee. Brother is the best~" Xiaolan smiled and jumped on my back. His hands wrapped tightly around my neck.

"Ahh Xiaolan. Loosen it a little. I'm running out of breath. ”

"Don't. Xiaolan wants to hold on to her brother tightly~" Xiaolan smiled at me with her little white teeth.

"Huh. Yes is ~little princess~" the same dialogue. Almost every time I carry Xiaolan, I have to say it once. But. It's the same dialogue a thousand times. It made me feel as if I was compensating for my previous life. In this life, I have a normal life. There's a dad. There is a mother. There is a younger sister. Have a home......

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

I carried Ran into the shadows. Walking and walking. I felt that Xiaolan's body was a little slumped. I just stood there and jumped up gently. In order to make it easier to adjust Xiaolan's position.

"Ahh Brother. My brooch fell off. Xiaolan said to me suddenly.

"Aren't you still holding it in your hand?" I stopped. Turned his head to look at Xiaolan on his back.

"Hmm. Just now my brother jumped. I flew out without taking it. Ah, there, I'll pick it up. With that, Xiaolan jumped off my back.

"Hey, Lan, that's in the middle of the road. Come back soon, I'll pick it up. "Through the dim light. I saw a small thing shining in the middle of the road.

But Xiaolan had already run out. Fortunately, there are usually no cars passing on such paths. I was relieved to watch her run and jump past to pick up the brooch.

I wanted to look at her with confidence. But God didn't like it, and a strong light shot into my eyes. It's the lights of the car.

Wow!!!

A black car flicked its tail from the corner at great speed and rushed straight towards Xiaolan, who had just picked up the brooch.

"Xiaolan, danger!!" I rushed out without hesitation. Although the car is fast. But the owner of the car also seems to have discovered us. The screeching sound of brakes poured into my ears.

Good thing this foot brakes. Let me rush to Xiaolan's side before the car. I used all my strength. I pushed Lan out. When Xiaolan was pushed out of the road by me. The car has also been attached to my body.

Bang!

The huge impact made me fly. Fortunately, the moment of contact with the car. I instinctively twisted my body. Try to touch the car with your back. The hands also protected the head with great speed.

But. After all, my body is too immature. At the moment of falling to the ground. The strong friction made me tumble on the ground several times. The head was also hit many times because of the rolling.

Lie on the ground. I can't even move if I want to. Don't think about it. At least the leg bones and hand bones are broken. If it weren't for the hands just covered with his head. I'm sure I'm unconscious by now. Or even death on the spot. Feel hot liquid coming out of your head. But I couldn't move. Such a feeling of weakness. I only experienced it in my last life.

"Little ...... Xiaolan ......: "My consciousness was almost broken, and I looked hard at the grass that Xiaolan had just fallen into. Judging by the crushed branches. Xiaolan shouldn't have a problem.

After putting your mind at ease. I closed my eyes. It's a lot of work for me to open my eyes now.

Boom. Bang! That's the sound of the car door opening and closing.

"Hey. Eldest brother. What to do?" a deep voice sounded. This voice. I think I heard it there.

"Hmph. Damn imps. Regardless of him, let's go. A cold voice came to my ears. I shuddered when I listened. The voice seemed to be a death sentence. The cold is biting.

"Oops. Eldest brother. The target's child had broken his neck bone due to the sudden braking. It's out of gas. ”

"Cut. Go see the kid who just got knocked into the air. If he is still alive, replace him. Our mission does not allow for failure. ”

"I see. Eldest brother. ”

Da Da Da ...... The sound of leather shoes. I did my best to get my last bit of strength. Opened his eyes a little slit. One was wearing a black suit. A rugged man in black sunglasses picked me up.

Wouldn't it?, I thought to myself. I turned my gaze to the other side. A man in a black trench coat with long blond hair came into view.

gin！！！

Although I know that the person next to me is gin. But at this point, I don't have the strength to do anything. They are at their mercy.

"Big brother. The kid is still alive. But it looks like a lot of bones are broken. What to do?"

"Just be alive. Gin took a deep puff of his cigar. "Rip off his clothes and swap them with the target's clothes. Then he threw the boy's body into the sea. When you go back, give this kid to Shirakawa. Let her take care of it. ”

"Yes. Eldest brother. With that, Vodka led me to the car. Porsche 365A. Sure enough, it's gin's car. This was the last image I saw when I opened my eyes. Vodka threw me in the car, maybe he was too stupid. When you threw me in the car. I hit my head on the other side of the car door. It happened to be the part of the wound that had just hit the ground. Thereupon. The intense pain took away the last shred of my consciousness.
