Chapter 3: The Wheel of Fate (1)
The bell of the end of school echoed in the Didan High School, and the sunset gilded the building with a brilliant layer of gold, because it was Friday, so the students were very relaxed.
"Hey, Charlotte, what's wrong with you these two days? Why did you suddenly become so silent? As Shinichi walked, he suddenly asked Charlotte Miyamoto, who was walking in front, with a worried tone.
Charlotte didn't look back, but just asked, "Isn't that what I usually do?" Or do I usually make you think I'm a talkative person? ”
"No," Shinichi replied immediately, "Although you usually look cold and lonely, you have always had a laid-back feeling on your body, which is completely different from how you feel now!" At this point, his eyes sharpened, "You're a detective yourself, you know, you can't fool my detective's intuition!" ”
Charlotte didn't speak, Shinichi didn't ask again, and Xiaolan walked aside and looked at the two of them worriedly. The atmosphere froze for a moment.
Walking to the fork in the road, Xiaolan turned to leave, walked a few steps and turned back, looked at the silent two, and said worriedly: "Shinichi, Charlotte, if there is any misunderstanding, you must explain it clearly!" With that, he turned and left.
Misunderstand? A wry smile appeared at the corner of Shinichi's mouth, not a misunderstanding, but because you are here, this kid won't tell me at all! He looked at Charlotte and said, "Miyamoto, now, what can you say?" ”;
Charlotte Miyamoto turned his head and looked behind him at the friend he had known for thirteen years. His warm blue eyes were full of seriousness, and it was the first time I heard him call me Miyamoto so seriously. Charlotte couldn't help but sigh. He spoke slowly: "Kudo, I can only tell you one sentence, and you must always remember this sentence. ”
"What?" Shinichi asked, staring at Charlotte's amber pupils.
"Watch out for black." After saying this, Charlotte didn't wait for him to ask any more questions, turned his head, and disappeared in a few flashes. Leaving Shinichi in place, he didn't know if it was the reason for the sunset, he always felt that the moment Charlotte turned around, he seemed to see a burst of palpitating gold in Charlotte's eyes.

Weekend. Tropical paradise
It's early summer, it's not too hot, and it's a good time to get out and play. The noise, laughter, and the screams of small children are mixed together to give a sense of life.
Entrance to the roller coaster.
Shinichi watched the three little children sneak into the mouth, and couldn't help yawning, "These three little ghosts want to sit in vain, and the children are really ...... now."
But he never thought that in the near future, he would form an indissoluble bond with these three children. He excitedly told Xiaolan about his favorite character, and Charlotte went. Sherlock holmes. I didn't notice Xiaolan's drooping eyelids at all.
"Speaking of Sherlock Holmes, the most powerful thing about him is that when he first met his assistant Watson, he could tell from the handshake that he had been to Afghanistan as a military doctor. It's like this. He suddenly took the hand of a young lady in a blue dress beside him. The young lady was taken aback, and even Xiaolan looked at him in surprise.
"This young lady is a gymnasticsman." Shinichi said casually.
"Ahh How do you know? The young lady asked in surprise.
"Hitomi-chan, is it your friend?" The young lady's female companion asked her.
Seeing that Xiaolan was also at a loss, Shinichi smiled and explained: "When shaking hands, I felt that there were many blisters on her hands, and a woman would have so many blisters on her hands, which means that she practiced horizontal bars." ”
"However, even if you practice tennis, you will have blisters on your hands!" Xiaolan asked puzzled.
Shinichi whispered to Xiaolan, "Actually...... I accidentally saw that person's skirt when the wind blew it up just now! People who practice gymnastics will have strange cocoons on their thighs! "If Charlotte were here, he would have looked at Shinichi with disdain, and then gestured to the wolf.
Xiaolan also looked disdainful: "I knew from the beginning that it was completely cheating!" I said, "Xiao Lan showed half moon eyes, "how long are you going to shake hands?" ”
"Ah, sorry, sorry." Shinichi looked embarrassed and hurriedly let go of Miss Kotomi's hand. A man next to him said unhappily to Shinichi, "Hey! Can you leave our business alone?! ”
"Oh, you're friends, do you want to give up your seat?" Shinichi asked with a sweaty look on his face. "No, it's okay." "And it's not good to disturb Aiko and Mr. Kishida." Two men replied.
When he turned around and saw the scene of two people kissing, he couldn't help but fantasize about confessing to Xiaolan, and he wanted to get into it.
……
This is a villa that has been around for years. The fence is already covered with green raisers and vines, and it looks lush. The rust on the main door and the moss marks on the exterior wall all show the old age of the villa and its abandoned state.
Charlotte, who was straddled with a tennis bag, looked at the door of the villa in a daze, the nameplate was blurred, but the words "Miyamoto House" were still faintly visible. Charlotte was silent for a moment, then twisted the lock.
Walking into the villa, a quaint atmosphere came, looking at everything familiar, Charlotte couldn't help but have a hot liquid flowing in her eyes. When I saw the picture on the bookcase, I couldn't suppress all my emotions anymore.
"Father's ......"
His memory began at the age of two. has been a human being in two lives, but there is no less memory. In his previous life, his parents died early, and he lived alone with a knife until his twentieth birthday. A bolt of lightning sent him into the world.
I thought I was just living one more life, but I didn't expect that when my father took him to visit after hearing that he had a new neighbor, he met Kudo Shinichi and Mao Liran.
"My name is Shinichi Kudo, and I'm going to be a detective in the future! What is your name? ”
“……”
"Hey, what is your name?"
“……”
"Hey!"
"Forget Shinichi, he's probably just shy!" A little girl walked over, pulled the corner of Shinichi's clothes, and said generously: "My name is Mao Lilan, can we be friends?" ”
“…… My name is Charlotte Miyamoto. ”
"Oh, Charlotte Miyamoto, can I call you Charlotte?" The girl asked innocently.
"Hey, Lan...... Okay, boy, I'll call you Charlotte too! Shinichi said in an old-fashioned manner.
“……”
Thinking of this, Charlotte couldn't help but smile, where am I shy, I was so shocked that I actually came to this world, and the wish I made casually was really ...... Realized.
In this life, although his mother died when he was young, he always remembered his mother's gentleness and kindness. And then there's ...... Father.
Ken Miyamoto.
My father is very mysterious, as if he knows everything and understands everything. Fighting, programming, designing, shooting, yachting, helicopter piloting...... Even dispensing medicine he would. Others call him Dr. Miyamoto, and he couldn't understand the programs he calculated on the computer with his own computer technology in his previous life, of course, it had something to do with the fact that he was taken away by his father every time he watched for a while. He was really good to himself, and he experienced a father's love that he hadn't experienced in his previous life.
But a person as important to himself disappeared half a year ago.
My father's research institute suddenly caught fire, and the fire enveloped the entire research institute for nearly an hour, and when the fire was extinguished, there was nothing left. There were no bodies, no evidence, everything, it seems, disappeared with the fire.
Since then, his personality has changed abruptly, almost returning to the state of his previous life. It's cold to everyone.,Later,I also developed a liking for drinking.。 So much so that later, almost no one dared to talk to him. Except for those two.
"Charlotte, don't always remember that, uncle...... It doesn't have to be ......, "This is Xiaolan."
"Charlotte, you bastard, cheer me up! If my uncle hadn't died, he would have beaten you hard when he saw you like this! "This is Shinichi.
Later, in the police investigation report, Ken Miyamoto could only be listed as "missing" because the body could not be found. But it could also be because the fire was so big that there were no bones left.
He began to frantically search for his father, convinced that he was not dead, but to no avail. Soon he also moved out of the old mansion and left this sad place.
It wasn't until that day that the man told him that there might be a secret room left by his father that he returned here, and it had been half a year since he left......
"Huh? Half...... Wrong! Charlotte was staring at this photo, and suddenly reacted, she hadn't come back for half a year, this photo ...... How could it be...... Don't!
