Déjà vu place, déjà vu scene, Xiao Wai looked at me with a sad look I had never seen before.

"Xiao Ai, what's wrong with you?" I asked, confused.

But Xiao Wai didn't answer my question, just looked at me steadily, and the sadness in his eyes almost overwhelmed me, making me feel extremely depressed.

Immediately afterwards, Mom and Dad appeared by Xiao Ai's side, and then Conan, Ayumi, Mitsuhiko, Motota, Mayo, Doctor, and Kaito...... More and more people appeared in front of me, but they all looked at me with the same sad eyes, as if what had happened to me, their eyes full of grief and pity.

"You ...... What's wrong with you guys?" I smiled a little awkwardly, "What do I have...... Is there something wrong?"

The crowd shook their heads and slowly turned their backs.

"Hey, where are you going?" Seeing that they were leaving, I hurriedly shouted: "Wait for me, don't leave me alone......"

However, no one waited for me, and no one wanted to wait for me, even though everyone looked sad and looked at me with such kindness.

"Don't! don't go...... I'll be obedient, I'll stop killing, I'll not sleep in class, I'll do my homework on time, I'll do my child's ...... I'll do whatever you tell me to do, so ...... Don't leave me behind......" I shouted as I tried to catch up with them, but all my efforts were in vain.

I couldn't get close to them, I could only watch them go farther and farther......

No...... Don't do that......

The heart is full of panic, full of helplessness, full of overwhelm......

Eventually, one by one, the people's backs disappeared, and at last, none of them looked back at me because of my shouts, and my surroundings slowly became occupied by darkness, and my heart gradually sank. When the last one disappeared, I was finally engulfed in darkness......

It's scary......

Slowly waking up, before my brain could clear, a cold little hand was placed on my forehead, and the cold touch made me feel slightly excited.

"Well, the fever has finally subsided. There was a tepid voice in his ears.

"Huh, little ...... I ............ I turned my head, Xiao Ai's plain pretty face came into my eyes, I wanted to say something, but there was a hot pain in my throat, so I could hardly speak.

What's wrong with me?

"This is Dr. Asasa's house, don't open your mouth to talk yet, lie down on your head and recuperate, I will help you do the rest." Xiao Ai stood beside me, put the towel in his hand into the basin of water and soaked it, wrung it out and replaced the hot towel on my forehead: "The high fever is thirty-nine degrees Celsius two, and if the temperature is a little higher, you may be burned into an idiot!

Xiao Ai kept moving in his hands, and said lightly, his tone was not very impatient, and his voice was still as smooth and quiet as usual, but the meaning of blame had been fully revealed.

Oh, so I have a cold? I don't know how long I've been asleep, but I remember that I fell asleep when I came back that day, and I have no memory at all after that, and Xiao Wai has probably been taking care of me all this time......

"You've slept all day, the school has already asked for you to take leave, and Detective Maori Edogawa has already said it, you don't have to worry, the kid from the office just came and brought the porridge cooked for you, see you fall asleep, sit for a while and leave, and if you're hungry in a while, eat the porridge." Xiao Ai said, pointing to the steaming casserole on the bedside cabinet.

I nodded in understanding. The rising heat brought a touch of warmth to my heart.

"Seeing that your expression wasn't quite right just now, did you have some nightmare?" Speaking of this, Xiao Wai showed a worried expression: "Is it terrifying?"

I thought about it, nodded first, then shook my head. I do vaguely remember that I had a dream, and it seemed to be a very bad dream, but I can't remember the specifics.

"Yes," Xiao Wai sighed and said, "Then don't think too much, rest assured, the medicine will be put here first," Xiao Wai put some medicine on the cabinet and said to me: "You rest for a while, and I will take care of you after a while, and you don't move yourself." ”

I nodded again, in fact, my head was still in a mess, I didn't have any strength in my body, and nodding was already my limit, let alone messing around.

Seeing that I showed a trace of tiredness again, Xiao Wai reached out and tucked the corners of my back, and a smile appeared on her white jade-like face: "You can sleep again, and I will call you in a while." ”

I don't know why, every time I see Xiao Ai's quiet smile, I feel very relieved, over the years, I don't know how many times I have been saved by this smile, it's so beautiful.

In a daze, I fell back into a dream.

I don't know how long later, I vaguely heard someone talking next to me.

"How's Xiaohui doing?" seemed to be Xiaolan's voice.

"I woke up once, but I fell asleep again, and I still didn't look good. ”

"yes, what about body temperature, is there still a sign of recurrence?"

"No, the body temperature has come down well, it's not a state of high and low anymore. ”

"Don't you really have to take him to the hospital?"

"Well, let's look at the situation again, after all, with our identity, if we can, don't go to the hospital......"

“...... Okay, but if his condition continues to worsen, he will have to be sent to the hospital!"

"I know. ”

"Uh-huh......" I opened my eyes with some difficulty, only to see Xiao Ai talking to Xiao Lan and Conan, and the orange light of the evening sunset sprinkled the whole room.

"Ah, Xiaohui, are you awake?I'm sorry we woke you up......" Xiaolan, who was talking, just turned her head to look at me, met my eyes, and after the surprise, showed a hint of apologetic expression.

I shook my head, trying to put on a smiling face, but failed.

"Are you awake, are you feeling better?" Xiao Wai turned around and reached my forehead again to feel the temperature of my body, "Well, it seems to have returned to normal." Xiao Ai's face became relaxed: "Come, let's drink it first." Xiao Ai said as she carefully helped me to my feet, let my upper body rest on hers, and brought a few pills and a glass of water to my mouth.

I followed Xiao Ai's movements, took the medicine, gasped slightly, and finally lifted my spirits a little.

"How did you do it! Can't you even feel sick yourself?!" Conan frowned at me with a hint of anger and said, "If you continue to do this, your little life will be finished by yourself sooner or later!"

I'm sorry. I conveyed my apologies to Conan with my eyes.

"Forget Conan, since Xiaohui has woken up, then it's fine," Xiaolan hurriedly played the round: "It's a pity that the porridge I cooked before is cold, Xiaohui, you wait a minute, the new porridge will be fine in a while......"

I nodded at Xiaolan.

"Couldn't he speak?" asked Conan to Xiao Ai.

"Well, because of the high fever, his throat is also inflamed, and his vocal cords can't make a sound for the time being, but it should be fine if you recuperate. Carefully put me down, Xiao Wailing didn't reply, and said lightly while covering me with a quilt.

"It's not too early, then Sister Xiaolan and I will go back first, and this guy will ask you." Conan glanced at the sky and said in a deep voice.

"Well, if you don't say I will, I will. ”

"I'm sorry, I've worked hard for you. Xiaolan first smiled apologetically at Xiao Ai, and then said to me: "Xiaohui also has to obediently recuperate well at Dr. Asasa's place, don't be naughty, Sister Xiaolan will make you something to eat when you go back." ”

I nodded, but I still couldn't laugh, I wouldn't become paralyzed if I had a cold, would I?

After the two of them left, I couldn't help but look around.

"If you want to find Dr. Asasa, he has something to do, and if you tell me something, it's the same, I'll do it for you. Seeing me looking around, Xiao Ai said this to me.

Looks like every time I come here, Dr. Asa is almost not there? I looked at Xiao Ai with some confusion: There is nothing wrong with this, right?

“...... Why are you looking at me like that?" Xiao Wai turned her head a little uncomfortably, and a slight flush flashed on her face.

I can't help but be a little embarrassed: Dr. Asa can't be "in trouble", right? If that were the case, then Dr. Asa would be too pitiful.

"Goo~~" At this moment, my stomach growled, and I hadn't eaten in two days. I looked at Xiao Ai with some embarrassment.

"Hehe," Xiao Ai couldn't help but smile, stood up and said to me, "Wait, the porridge should have been boiled, I'll bring it to you." ”

After a while, Xiao Ai brought a bowl of fragrant porridge to me: "After recovering from a serious illness, let's eat a little light." ”

Xiao Ai lifted my upper body, let my back rest on the pillow, picked up the spoon, took a little bit of rice, carefully blew away the heat from the rice with her pink seductive lips, and handed it to me.

I gave her a stupid look, then looked at the spoon in a daze, not knowing how to react.

"What are you doing in a daze? Do you want to eat?" Xiao Aiqiao's face was slightly red, and she gave me a fierce look.

I nodded hurriedly and swallowed the rice in one gulp, but the rice was so hot that my throat stabbed, but I couldn't spit it out, so I could only twist my body like a fish on the shore.

"Hehe, what a fool. Xiao Wai chuckled.

......

At night, the moonlight is like water, and Xiao Wai is lying beside my bed, sleeping peacefully, and her petite body is lying down together, and she is lovely everywhere.

Dr. Asa came back a little later, and when he asked him what he was doing, he didn't say anything, just laughed, and I couldn't say anything if I wanted to ask him if he was "in trouble". All night, Xiao Ai was with me, Xiao Ai didn't talk much, and I couldn't speak, so I could only listen to her. Xiao Ai sat next to me, while observing my condition, while chatting with me without a word, it was late at night, Xiao Ai refused to sleep, even if the little head became little by little, or forced to refuse to sleep, I motioned her to go to sleep She also pretended not to see, no way I had to pretend to be asleep, Xiao Ai went to get a towel and wiped my face carefully, and then fell asleep beside me.

Xiao Wai's last night must have been like this, really...... I looked at Xiao Ai's quiet sleeping face, and my heart hurt slightly.

I've slept for a day and a night, I've taken medicine, and my stomach is full, so I'm not sleepy at all, and I'm in good spirits, even though it's late. Probably because of the medicine, although I can't talk yet, my cold has basically improved, and my brain has become very refreshing. This feeling makes me feel very comfortable.

Looking at the bright moonlight quietly, I couldn't help but think of the figure of Kaito standing in the moonlight that day, and also remembered what he said to me: You can do it yourself.

I didn't see Kaito's expression at the time, but judging from his tone, it was definitely not a happy expression. I knew he was very worried about me, otherwise he wouldn't have come to see me.

At the time, his "Thankfully you're okay" was confusing to me, but now I fully understand what he meant. Kaito was clearly upset by Koizumi Koizumi's prophecy, so he wanted to make sure I was safe even at the risk of revealing my identity.

But he couldn't help me. He's a thief, I'm a murderer, he's an artist, but I'm just a crude butcher. He can't kill someone to help me, even if he is a fellow criminal, Kaito has a balance in his heart that measures good and evil, and it is not something I can control.

Therefore, he can only help me from a side perspective, but he can't help me get out of my current predicament.

"Black sinners will eventually return to the embrace of darkness. ”

Although I don't quite understand what Koizumi Hongzi means by this sentence, this is obviously not a good word, and it makes people's hearts feel cold when they hear it.

Koizumi Hongzi probably didn't know the specific meaning of this sentence, otherwise Kaito would definitely tell me, he must have asked Koizumi Hongzi the meaning of this sentence, but he didn't get anything.

So, what does that mean? I couldn't help but frown a little distressedly.

Forget it, if you don't know, you don't know, there must be a road before the car reaches the mountain, besides, this sentence is not necessarily true, and this kind of thing is too illusory to say that prophecy is too illusory to have no credibility at all, maybe it is just a curse on me by Koizumi Hongzi, who is hostile to me? As an atheist, when did I become so superstitious?

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but shake my head with a wry smile, forget it, go to sleep. I closed my eyes gently.

The next morning, I was woken up by the noise in my ears, and when I opened my eyes, I saw a group of children packing their things in full swing.

"Ah, Minghui-san is awake!" Ayumi cried out in surprise when she found me looking at them.

"Yo, Minghui-san, you're finally awake, we're about to go out with the doctor to camp on Ryujin Mountain in Seitama City, why don't you go with you?" Mitsuhiko said to me happily.

"yes, yes, let's go together, I heard it's fun there!" replied Genta excitedly.

Mayu also looked at me frequently, and although he didn't speak, the look of anticipation in his eyes was already fully revealed.

"No," before I could speak, Xiao Ai interjected, "He can't go with you." ”

"Why, Ashbara, going out and getting some fresh air is good for your body, right?" Mitsuhiko asked Xiao Ai with some confusion.

"Dragon God Mountain is too far from here. He has just recovered from a serious illness, and his body is still a little weak, and he can't afford to toss so much. Xiao Wai said lightly.

"Well, it's just fishing and stuff, right?" asked Conan to Xiao Ai.

"That's not good, you have to go through the Ninety-Nine Turns Ridge to go to Longshen Mountain, right? There are so many curves, and the road conditions in the mountain are not good, his current body will not be able to bear it. Xiao Ai refused to back down at all.

"How is this so, if Minghui can't go......" The children couldn't help but be a little disappointed.

"Well, it doesn't matter if you go or not, the key is to take care of your body," Dr. Asa smiled and played a circle between Xiao Ai and Conan: "Then Xiao Ai, after we leave, I will ask you to take care of the house." ”

"yes, I see. Xiao Ai nodded in understanding.

I looked eagerly at the crowd and gestured to them with my eyes, but the doctors didn't notice my intentions, and the look in my eyes was caught by Xiao Ai, who glared at me fiercely, and I finally had to give in to Xiao Ai's female power.

After a while, the doctor led a group of children and set off in a majestic manner. Seeing the children happily going out one by one, I couldn't help but feel a little mixed in my heart.

"Okay, okay, don't cry with a sad face, are you very uncomfortable with me?" Seeing my aggrieved face, Xiao Ai couldn't help laughing.

I quickly shook my head desperately. It's just that lying in bed all day is so uncomfortable that I don't feel right all over my body.

"Yesterday I was afraid that you would not be able to make up for it, so I just gave you some porridge, but today I can eat something nourishing, do you want to eat something?"

"Ah......h

"Well, tempura, fried shrimp, croquettes...... Anything else?"

God knows how she understood what I meant.

"Ah......h

"Well, braised pork, pork ribs in sauce, and mapo tofu? Mapo tofu is not good, you don't have a good throat now." Xiao Ai put away the note with the menu and said to me, "I'll make the rest for you, just wait." ”

I was overjoyed when I heard this, I didn't expect that I could get so many benefits with a fishing, and I smiled widely.

"I'm not happy because I can't go out to play, I'm happy because I have something delicious, are you a child?" Although Xiao Wai gave me an angry look, but after a while, she put on her coat and went out to buy vegetables.

It's really happy to be sick...... I thought so as I looked at the ceiling.

After a while, the sound of the door opening was heard.

I turned my head to look at the door, only to see a golden man walking towards me with a bright smile: "Yo, long time no see, you are still so energetic, I said we will meet soon......"

Fidel!!

My pupils constricted!

"Ah, don't be nervous, don't be nervous, I didn't have any other meaning to come here today, I just heard that an old friend was sick, so I came over to have a look. Fidel waved his hand and walked over to my bed.

My cold was just a sudden incident yesterday, but he can accurately know my current status, which shows that he has been sending someone to secretly investigate or monitor me, and he knows everything around me!

But I didn't notice it in the slightest!

Rothschilds...... It's terrifying.

Get out!!

I silently chased him away with my eyes.

"Oh, I see what you mean, I'll go right away, I'll go right away, don't look at me with such horrible eyes, my heart won't stand it......" Fidel said cynically as he shrugged his shoulders.

"But, I didn't expect you to become so weak like an ordinary person after getting sick...... Fidel said to me with a smile: "In your current state, if something happens to the people around you, what can you do? All you can do is watch them have an accident!"

"Listen to me, friend, your current strength is too weak, you can't protect anyone, do you have to wait until that time to know that you regret it?"

I couldn't help but be silent when Fidel said that, he was not wrong at all, it was all true.

"Think about it, my friend, and I'm sure you'll make a wise choice. Fidel patted me on the shoulder, leaned his head towards me, and whispered, "I'm looking forward to your joining, friend." ”

I remained silent.

"Ah, by the way, look at my memory, I obviously came to visit the sick, but I forgot the purpose of my visit......" he smiled and patted his head.

Your purpose is obvious, isn't it?, I looked at Fidel with a wry smile.

Fidel clapped his hands twice, and a stout man dressed in black walked to my bed in three steps and two steps, placed two pistols on my bed, and then bowed slightly to me and Fidel, and politely pushed the door out.

"With your current situation, you probably can't buy a gun openly, right? I know that if I give you money, you probably won't accept it, so I'll give you two guns, at least until you decide to join us, protect yourself and don't lose your life. Allow me, then, to take my farewell and look forward to seeing you next time. ”

With a slight bow politely, Fidel went in as dashing as he came.

I was lost in thought, and even my convictions were shaken.

Because Fidel's words hit me to the core, I couldn't avoid it, and I had to face it.

With me now, can I really protect everyone?

Perhaps, Fidel was right, and I really should think about it......
