"How could it be...... Why ......"

The girl clutched the telephone receiver tightly to her ear, her fingers turning white from excessive force.

The moonlight poured through the window on her delicate body, like a gentle moon goddess covering the helpless girl with a light veil.

Even so, it still couldn't warm her cold heart.

Xia Jiang would rather that she hadn't made this call, she would rather that there was still an endless busy tone on the other end of the phone, so that she could continue to comfort herself, like last time, and then continue to wait with anticipation and that beautiful fantasy......

Thinking of this, tears couldn't help blurring her eyes, wetting her clothes and cooling her heart.

What was shattered by that "I'm sorry" was not only her fantasies and expectations, but also the courage to resist this arranged life, and the pillars that supported her heart. Everything that had been insisted on so far had been shattered......

Time is a cruel thing, it can make everything you originally believed in unrecognizable. In five years, maybe the person on the other end of the phone is no longer the person she knows, she obviously knows this, but she still holds such expectations and such beautiful hopes.

It's just that the more beautiful the hope, the more painful the disappointment.

"Now you're satisfied, right?"

At this moment, the door of the room was suddenly pushed open, and a white-haired old man in a kimono walked in with a majestic face.

"Grandpa, grandpa, how are you ......?"

The panicked girl only had time to put down the earpiece in her hand, but she didn't have time to wipe the tears off her face.

"I'm sorry, Second Miss. ”

The one who answered her was the silver-haired old butler who stood behind the old man, whom she was familiar with.

"I told you a long time ago, no matter how precocious he is, he was just a twelve-year-old ghost at the beginning," seeing his granddaughter's reddish eyes, the old man couldn't help but snort softly, "In five years, he won't remember you as a person......"

"He didn't forget me, he just ...... Just ......"

Xia Jiang wanted to refute, but as soon as he opened his mouth, he found that he couldn't organize words that could be refuted.

"Forget about him, do what you should do with peace of mind......"

After saying this, the old man left the room without looking back.

"Yes, Grandpa......"

Even the last shred of courage to resist was drained, and Xia Jiang, who was lost in despair, could only nod obediently.

"Are you okay, Xia Jiang?"

At this time, a man suddenly walked in and handed a handkerchief to Xia Jiang.

"Ah, Xiao Wu, I ......"

Looking at his nominal fiancé in front of him, Xia Jiang couldn't help but hurriedly took his handkerchief, wanting to wipe the tears off his face. However, the more she wiped it, the more the tears couldn't stop flowing down, until finally, she couldn't help but break down and cry bitterly.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, Xiao Wu......"

"I understand that it's not so easy to forget someone. I also understand that you need some time now. ”

Saying this, the man couldn't help but look at her with pity, and then silently stood up and walked towards the door of the room.

"I'll be waiting for you, I'll be waiting for you, Xia Jiang......"

Before going out, the man sighed self-deprecatingly, as if to say to her, and as if to himself.

However, neither the man who left nor the crying girl noticed at this moment that in the darkness, there was a pair of eyes staring at them. There was also a person who was silently clenching his teeth and clenching his fists......

However, at this moment, the fuse that is about to ignite a family tragedy is still ignorant of all this.

"Damn Yumi Miyamoto, don't let me get a chance, otherwise I will definitely strip you naked and throw you on the bed, so that you can have a good experience of what it means to be unable to survive, to die, and it will be useless for you to call your brother when the time comes!"

Eagle Arrow pushed his coquettish locomotive hard, while gritting his teeth and breaking his thoughts all the way.

This chick definitely has a grudge against him! Plus last time, she has dragged her car away for the third time! Plus today is twice a day, and the interval is only a few hours, no matter how you look at it, it is very deliberate!

"Young Master Eagle Arrow, it seems that your luck today is really not very good, the old man suggests that you take a bath first to get rid of the bad luck on your body. ”

After Eagle Arrow finally pushed the Tyrannosaurus back to the garage, Uncle De on the side immediately handed over the towels and tea that had been prepared long ago.

"Thank you, Uncle De, it's the first time I know that it's not a good thing for the car to be too good......"

Hawkya, who pushed the car all the way home from the police station, was already thirsty and drank the tea in his cup in an instant.

"The so-called Mu Xiu Yulin, that's what happened, haven't you always known it well, Young Master Eagle Ya?"

Taking the teacup that Eagle Ya had used up, Uncle De couldn't help but shrug his shoulders and said with a chuckle.

"Also, as a handsome person from a small to a big man, Young Master Ben doesn't know how much jealousy and white eyes he has suffered, especially a certain detective!"

Eagle Ya touched his chin, thought about it very seriously, and then felt that what Uncle De said was very reasonable.

"Oh, by the way, Uncle De, you told Xia Jiang my number, right?"

Just as Eagle Ya was walking upstairs with the towel that Uncle De handed him, he suddenly turned around with a thought.

"Ah, yes, young master. ”

Uncle De nodded very happily, as if he hadn't thought about hiding it at all.

"Why are you doing this?"

Looking at Uncle De's unchanged smiling face, Yingya couldn't help but sigh helplessly.

"Old Man just doesn't want you to continue to escape, Young Master, and thus miss a good girl," said this, Uncle De couldn't help but habitually push his glasses, "But looking at your reaction now, you must have refused, right?"

"Shouldn't it? I don't want to involve her in my dangerous life......" Taka smirked wryly.

"People are always in danger," Uncle De said earnestly, "and young master, when you chose to approach Miss Akimoto, you had already involved her, so why not take responsibility and let you protect her?"

"Anyway, it's more likely that she's in danger next to me, and I'm just making the right choice. ”

"Do what you think is right, nothing else matters...... That's what you taught me when I was a kid?"

With that, Hawkya couldn't help but throw the towel over his shoulder, and then walked away without looking back.

"But young master, life can't be calculated by probability......"

Looking at the back of his young master who left alone, the dutiful old housekeeper couldn't help but sigh a little sadly.

This night is destined to be a sleepless night, and everyone is holding their own hearts and minds, tossing and turning.

In the Maori Detective Agency, a small figure finally couldn't help but get up after trying countless times and couldn't sleep.

He flipped over the extremely ugly sleeping person, then grabbed the key to the side and sneaked to the second floor.

After making sure that he had locked the door to his office, he exhaled softly, then grabbed the phone next to him, and quickly pressed the familiar number, calling the only person who knew all the truth about it now.

He really has too many words in his heart now, and he can't wait to talk to him.

"Hey...... Hello, ah...... Scold...... Who's so late?"

The little old man who was woken up by the phone didn't seem to have been able to get rid of the pestering of the sleepy bug, and he was weak to even speak.

"Dr. Asasa, it's me, Shinichi!"

The little body struggled to climb onto the table, and then sat cross-legged next to the phone, sighing helplessly.

"Oh, it's Shinichi, what's the matter, call me so late?"

Hearing Conan's voice, Dr. Asa on the other end of the phone couldn't help but pinch himself hard to force himself to be sober. Because with his familiarity with Shinichi, he would never call himself in the middle of the night for no reason, something major must have happened, something so important that he couldn't make a decision alone!

"Doctor, it seems that my true identity has been discovered......"

Sure enough, although he was mentally prepared, Conan's next words made him almost choke to death with his own saliva.

"W-Nani?!What, what's going on?, who's it, is it those guys?"

Finally catching the earpiece that he had almost dropped to the ground, Dr. Asa couldn't help but scream excitedly.

"Alright, alright, doctor, don't be so nervous, it's not those guys......"

Rubbing his ears, which were almost deafened, Conan couldn't help but say helplessly to the person on the other end of the phone.

I really wonder where this little old man who has been nesting in the laboratory all day long has such a good physique, he is so old and has such a lot of energy!

"No, it's not them?" Hearing Conan's words, the other end of the phone couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief, "Who is that, Xiaolan?"

"No, if it's Xiaolan, maybe it's a little simpler, it's Eagle Ya, the guy who is much more troublesome than her......"

With that, Conan couldn't help but take off his glasses and rubbed his brows in annoyance.

"Ah, Hawkbolt? How could he find out who you really are? Shouldn't he have never seen you like this?"

Dr. Asa couldn't help but scratch his Mediterranean bald head, and said with some confusion.

Although you used to be good friends, but now a primary school student, a high school student, can't beat eight poles together, how can you be inexplicably discovered by that kid true identity?

"Actually, there was a murder today, and then that guy happened to be there as well......"

Conan couldn't help but cover his forehead, he didn't expect that even if he became smaller, he would still be so close to that guy.

Should it be said that Rice Flower City is too small, or is it true that they are a natural pair of good friends......

Thinking of this, Conan couldn't help but shudder, and quickly shook his head to shake the idea out of his mind.

"Yes, it's no wonder, it's really difficult to hide from the ghost elf...... Is he sure it's you?"

After listening to Conan's story, Dr. Asa couldn't help but think of the obscene and slippery figure in his mind, and then smiled bitterly.

"No, although he didn't say it explicitly, I think he guessed eighty percent of the time. ”

Conan closed his eyes and carefully recalled what happened tonight, and then frowned deeply.

"I asked myself that I didn't do anything too revealing tonight, even if I showed far more astonishment than the average child in my investigation and reasoning, but normal people would just wonder why this child understands this, or 'why is this child so precocious', and never think about such unreliable things as 'is this child becoming an adult'. However, that's what I felt strange, what that guy did, those words, those temptations, as if he knew I was Shinichi Kudo from the beginning, and he said it on purpose......"

"So, can't you sleep tonight?" said Dr. Asasa, who knew the new nature.

"Well, I still can't figure out this reason, unless...... The vision that came to my mind was not my hallucination......"

Conan hesitated for a long time before finally saying this idea that had torn him up for two days.

"What kind of sight? I haven't heard you say before?" said Dr. Asasa with some confusion.

"Ah, because I used to think I was hallucinating from taking drugs, but now, I'm starting to doubt its authenticity. ”

Speaking of this, Conan couldn't help but take a deep breath, and even Dr. Asasa on the other end of the phone couldn't help but get nervous.

"In fact, the night I was poisoned and my body became smaller, that guy should have been there...... No, he might even have watched me get smaller, so he would know who I am......"

"W-what? Why is he here, is he ...... Who is he with those men in black?"

Hearing Conan's words, Dr. Asa couldn't help but feel dazed, and couldn't help but instinctively think of the worst possibility.

"No, it's unlikely, although none of us know where he has gone in the five years he has been gone, but if he was a member of the Black Order, he wouldn't have let me live at that time. And if I heard me right, he was trying to save me......"

Just as Dr. Asa broke out in a cold sweat, Conan's denial couldn't help but give him a long sigh of relief.

"But if that's the case, why was he there? Was it just a coincidence? And if you said he was trying to save you, why didn't you see him when you woke up, and why didn't he expose you?"

After solving one problem, more new questions came to Dr. Agasa's mind.

"Yes, this brings me to one last conjecture, and it is also a conjecture that can connect all these questions!"

It was as if a bolt of lightning flashed through his mind, piercing through all the irrationalities and doubts that had hitherto been imposed. Conan couldn't help but push his glasses, and the wide lenses reflected the light of wisdom. The fog has dissipated......

"The last guess, our young master Yuchai is the guy who is in the limelight in Rice Flower City now!"

"Black Knight!"
