"So, why are you here again?" After a commotion, Conan pulled Hattori aside and asked in a low voice, "Is there any case?"

"No, no," Hattori waved his hand repeatedly: "It's just that the school is on vacation, and I happened to hear that there was an incident here in you, so I came over to have fun and asked you about the details of the case by the way." ”

"Oh, that's right, in two days we're going to Officer Shiratori's for the celebration of the completion of the villa, so you and Kazuha will come together. ”

"Well, is that good? After all, we didn't get an invitation......" Hattori asked Conan, scratching his face and feeling a little embarrassed.

"It's nothing good or bad, you know each other anyway, just tell Officer Shiratori, even if he doesn't give you face, he will give your father face. Hearing their words, I stepped forward to dispel Hattori's doubts.

"Oh, that's it, well, then we'll bother, hehe......" Hattori's expression always seemed a little embarrassed when he faced me alone.

As a close friend of my brother, of course, he has long known my "bad deeds" from my brother, although he has had a few contacts with me, but the relationship between us is not deep, so it is natural for me to be more untreatable, in the final analysis, Hattori and my brother are completely one kind of person, so that he can face me as calmly as Conan as a "murderer", obviously he can't do it now. Not to mention, I'm still an unknown identity now. It's better to say that he was able to try to get along with me instead of calling the police immediately, which was already a great shame for Conan.

"Don't look at me with a bomb-faced expression," I couldn't help but laugh as I looked at Hattori's awkward expression, "For now, my relationship with Conan is quite good, and I won't turn into an enemy anytime soon, so you don't have to be on guard all the time." Besides......" I looked at Kazuha who was muttering with Xiaolan on the other side, and smiled slightly.

"No, you're too careful, really...... Haha......" Hattori was stunned for a moment, then touched the back of his head and smiled exaggeratedly, I sighed, and said no more, some things are difficult to change in a short period of time once they are identified.

The two women in the room were muttering something inexplicable, and my gut told me that it would be dangerous to approach it rashly. Uncle Maori is still watching Miss Yoko's video intently and has no time to speak, while Conan and Hattori are talking in a whisper, looking a little mysterious.

After all, am I the only one who has nothing to do?

Life...... Lonely as snow. Forget it, let's go out and take a look.

After making up my mind, I walked out of the room alone, and wandered aimlessly down the street, the afternoon sun shone on my body, warm and comfortable, and the whole street exuded a refreshing smell, and I accidentally passed by the café where I had stayed with Belmode that day, and hesitated, but I decided to spend some time here.

The environment of the café is still the same as the last time I came, clean, simple, with a touch of elegance, which made me relax at once.

Ignoring the strange looks of the waiters and other guests, I walked to an empty seat and ordered a cappuccino to enjoy it leisurely.

Time was slowly flowing, and my heart was full of peace, but not long after, as if I had sensed something in the dark, my hand holding the cup suddenly paused incomprehensibly.

"Yo, it's rare that you'll come to a place like this. ”

It seems to have a special rhythmic voice, slow and full of magnetism, and it is hard to imagine that this person can give people a sense of deep cultivation just by relying on his own voice.

"Sure enough, you've found me......" I swallowed a small sip of coffee in my mouth, carefully savoring the wonderful touch of the elegant aroma of coffee spreading in my mouth little by little, I sighed slightly, put the cup down gently, and looked at the exquisite cup a little distracted.

I had already expected all this, the longer the peaceful days passed, the bigger my flaws became, and sooner or later I would be found by those people, it was just a matter of time. But now the situation is different from before, this time I don't want to avoid him, on the contrary, I should say, I have been waiting for that person.

"I have to say that your casual clothes this time are the most successful in the way I've known you for so long. The visitor sat down beside me without notice, supported his chin with his hands, and said with a smile: "Even I have been deceived by you several times. ”

"Actually, I should have thought that with your strength, it would be too easy to find someone. Even if that person has changed beyond recognition. I smiled wryly. I've been through the same experience too many times.

"Thanks for the compliment, but this time you don't seem to repel me much, if it was before, even if you don't pull out your gun, you have to walk away. ”

"yes, it's different. If you can find me, you already know my situation, right?"

"Ah, are you talking about the kittens that keep bothering you? Yes, if it were me, I would have let a few dogs out, but you don't seem to be able to afford them now. ”

"No, I just don't have the energy to raise a dog, why don't you be the dog keeper for me?" I turned my head, and a young man with blond hair and golden eyes met my eye.

With golden hair, fair skin, angular face, straight nose, burning golden pupils, and sharp eyebrows, he is as handsome and dazzling as the legendary sun god.

I hate this guy.

This man had been pestering me since I was in Europe, and even when I told him that I was in the Order, this man never gave up his intention to pull me into their family.

Excessive selfishness, self-confidence, and pride make him exude a charm while also exuding a disgusting aura. I hate this kind of self-centered person.

"Ahh

"Would you like to play a game with me?" I said with a smile as I slowly shook the cup in my hand and watched the coffee-colored liquid ripple in the cup.

"Oh?" he was even more interested.

"How about not Fidel Ann Rothschild, but 'Fidel', just 'Fidel'?" I looked at him with interest.

"Interesting. The corners of Fidel's mouth curled slightly, and he quickly understood what I meant: "Is it just 'Fidel'......"

"Let's play a big one?"

"Yes, but again, my commission is expensive," Fidel said, leaning over his handsome face to me and looking me in the eye, "Is it really possible? Once you sign the contract, you can't go back!"

"Stay away from me, don't talk like a, it's disgusting. Commissions or something, whatever you want. I frowned. To be honest, I really want to punch him in the face now, and every time I meet this person, I get very angry inexplicably.

"Cut, it's always been so boring, you're going to be a bachelor for the rest of your life. Fidel pouted.

"So, what do you mean?" I interrupted him, asking bluntly.

"Forget it," Field's tone suddenly became lazy for some reason, "You're actually still rejecting me now, aren't you? ”

"I'm sorry you still have some self-knowledge. ”

"I said a long time ago that you and I are the same kind of people, and we will come together sooner or later. ”

"Bang!"

I slammed my coffee cup on the table with a muffled sound. The rest of the people in the coffee shop frequently turned their heads to look at the two strange combinations of us, one big and one small.

"Don't compare me to you!

"Ah~~Ah, I knew it would be like this. Fidel shrugged his shoulders and let out a helpless sound.

"Then, I'll go first, I'll come back to you again, I hope that when the time comes, you will be able to recognize the situation. With that, Fidel turned away cleanly, not in the slightest, very different from the elephant he had done before. In the past, he often pestered me until I "disappeared" before he would give up.

“...... I'm definitely not going to be you. Muttering, I wiped out the rest of my coffee.

"Waiter! ”

......

When I returned to the office, Hattori and Kazuha had already gone back to the hotel, and Xiaolan had already made dinner and was waiting for me with everyone. Such a scene makes my heart feel warm.

"I'm back. ”

"Welcome back, Fai. ”

"Phew, you stinky little devil still know to come back!"

"Daddy!"

"Ah...... That, that...... I mean, I'm starving, let's eat, haha......"

"I'm sorry, I'll be back sooner later. With a slight sniff, I said with a smile.

How could I possibly be you!bastard......

Two days later, Hattori, Kazuha, and Xiaolan's family took the car rented by Uncle Maori to the pre-agreed villa of Officer Shiratori's house, and the villa was already bustling with some acquaintances, including Fei Eiri, Officer Twilight, Officer Takagi, Officer Shiratori, Officer Sato, and Sonoko...... Seems like we're the only ones who came late.

"Brother Maori, I've been waiting for you for a long time!" As soon as we entered, Officer Twilight saw us and stretched out his hand to greet us.

"Ah, Lord Police, long time no see!" Uncle Maori naturally stepped forward in high spirits, and Uncle Maori had always maintained respect for this old boss. It is said that Uncle Maori was also a good policeman back then, but seeing Uncle Maori now as a detective, it is really hard for me to imagine what kind of "good" method Uncle Maori used when he was a police officer......

Because all the people present were acquaintances, everyone quickly talked about it, and the atmosphere was very harmonious, and bursts of laughter echoed in the room. Shiratori's villa is not very large, and the decoration is not particularly luxurious, but the style of the room is very high, giving people a very comfortable feeling like rural life.

Officer Sato's injuries seem to be almost healed, and the expression on his face is still that cheerful and bright, and I heard that the doctor has even lifted her alcohol ban, so Officer Shiratori will take out a good bottle of wine to celebrate with everyone in a while. However, Officer Takagi looked a little depressed.

It's no wonder, after all, there is an excellent same sex around you who is far better than yourself, and it is in front of the opposite sex you like, and no one will be comfortable if you change it. However, these things, judging from Sato's thick nerves, are probably imperceptible. Thinking of this, I couldn't help but smile and shake my head.

"What's the matter, Xiaohui, don't you like the food?" saw me shake my head, Sato squatted down and asked me.

"No, it's just something that comes to mind. I denied it. The food prepared by Officer Shiratori is quite good, it can be regarded as an orthodox French meal, caviar, foie gras sauce, and fresh oysters are all of the highest quality, and in terms of level, it is no less than some good French restaurants.

"What do you remember?" Sato asked me curiously.

"I remembered that you said 'dead' to Officer Takagi in three sentences at that time......"

"Ahh......h

"Officer Sato, what's wrong?" Takagi asked, noticing the strangeness of our place.

"Nothing!" a somewhat embarrassed Sato yelled at Takagi.

"Ha ......" I don't know why Takagi, who made Sato angry, shrank his neck as if he was inertia.

"Hehe," looking at Takagi's silly and silly appearance, I couldn't help laughing: "Officer Takagi is still good, it's so pitiful to be bullied by you all the time." ”

"Really? I don't feel it. Sato said a little unconcerned.

"Officer Takagi is good, think about it, don't always think about that mess. ”

Hearing my words, Sato raised his hand and gave me a burst of chestnut: "What kind of ghost ideas do you think at a young age, it's only serious to study hard." ”

"I've told you so many times! Don't hit me on the head!"

Obviously, Sato knew what I was talking about by "messy" and didn't want to go into it, so I didn't go into it.

"Your body...... Are you alright?" Xiao Ai, who had been watching Dr. Asasa on his low-calorie diets, asked me faintly as I passed by her.

"Ah, I've been resting for a long time, and it's fine. I raised my eyebrows and replied in a state full of energy.

Xiao Ai's eyebrows frowned slightly: "Yes, that's good." ”

"How about it, Brother Maori, may I pour you a glass of champagne?" Officer Twilight was in a high mood today, and Sato's discharge from the hospital made him very happy.

"That's flattering, Policeman. "There is alcohol to drink, and Uncle Maori naturally responds positively.

"Wait, husband, take the wrong glass, that's what you use to drink champagne. Aunt Yingli frowned and snatched the cup from Uncle Maori's hand and stuffed a small cup into his hand.

"Don't be nitpicky, you won't be happy to drink it in this cup......"

"Because it's all-you-can-drink, this kind of wine glass is just right!"

Ignoring the noise of the people around the table, I strolled to the balcony, where I glanced at Dr. Asa and followed me.

On the balcony, Yuan and Hattori sat at a table, and Xiaolan was looking at the scenery with Heye.

"Hmm...... The air is so fresh!" Taking a deep breath, Xiaolan's expression was very happy.

"yes. For Xiaolan's feelings, He Ye also agrees.

"You're right, Conan, Fai?" said Ran, smiling back at us.

"Hmm. Conan nodded heavily.

"yes, it's a really nice view. If I have the opportunity to stay here for a long time, I will definitely live for ten more years. I echoed and laughed.

Hattori's brow furrowed, although it was light, but I noticed it at once, who had been paying attention to his reaction.

It seems that this guy Hattori still can't accept my existence.

"Sister Xiaolan, let's go out for a walk and come back in a while. "Since staying here would ruin the atmosphere, I'd better leave.

"Do you know the road around here?" asked Xiaolan uncomfortably to me and Xiao Ai.

"Well, we're going around here. I nodded, and walked downstairs, glancing around the people on the balcony, and then followed me out.

"Now, Heiji, didn't the atmosphere become a little weird just now?" Kazuha asked Hattori a little strangely.

"No, it's your delusion, definitely. Hahaha......" Hattori said with a haha.

Conan's eyebrows furrowed.

The October sky, autumn is crisp, the path is full of trees, or yellow or red leaves in the sunlight under the reflection of a brilliant color, that brilliant light, as if there is a warm heart of the power to make people have a kind of worship for life.

I had a soothing and peculiar rhythm, walking slowly step by step, without speaking, and Xiao Wai also maintained an unchanging rhythm, following me step by step, neither rushing nor slow, always staying in the position of one step behind me, without saying a word.

My relationship with Xiao Ai may seem a little strange to the average couple.

We didn't date each other, we didn't get tired of being together all the time, and we didn't even talk to each other very much.

There is no vow, no sweet words, no commitment, and no so-called reputation. I didn't even say to Xiao Ai that I liked her.

Our feelings are like a calm stream of water, slowly, quietly, without alarm, I don't know when, we silently admit each other's position in our hearts. There probably won't be another couple in the world like us......

But just like that, we can still rely on each other in the midst of many crises and never give up. This is probably a tacit understanding. This is the fate given to us by God, so that we can have a tacit understanding that goes far beyond words.

I think Xiao Wai understands my heart. Even though there was nothing between us, Xiao Wai was always by my side and never left me.

My words and deeds, my joys, sorrows, and sorrows are all understood. Xiao Ai knows me better than I do.

As for Xiao Wai, I think I can also proudly say that I am the only person in this world who can walk into her heart.

For feelings, for life, Xiao Wai and I are just a fledgling. I don't know how to express it, and I don't know how to fight for it. All we can do is stumble forward on the road of life in ignorance. Maybe when we're all old, we'll know how to love......

Before I knew it, we had come to the door of a church where a Western-style wedding was taking place, and the bride was not very pretty, and the groom was not handsome, but the smile and brilliance on their faces at the moment when the bell of blessing rang dazzled me.

We...... You can have a happy day like that...... Is it?

I waved to Xiao Ai, who seemed to know what I was thinking, walked over quietly, snuggled into my arms, hugged me tightly with both hands, and trembled slightly with her petite body.

My heart warmed, and I reached out and patted Xiao Wai's back.

Xiao Ai is really the person who knows my feelings best.

Since my return to the present, I have experienced a lot of things with Conan, and my relationship with Conan has also experienced ups and downs, although there are constant contradictions between the ups and downs, but after a long time, Conan has accepted me more than I am, and it can be seen from the fact that Conan did not pursue Hennessy from me this time, and Conan's thinking is slowly changing because of me.

To be honest, I'm happy, I'm very happy. Conan has started to get to know me slowly, maybe, I mean, one day, maybe he will be able to accept a brother like me, and I will be able to be Yuichi Kudo again, and then we will live together and grow old together......

However, Hattori's attitude towards me today woke me up suddenly.

Sure enough, it's still not good, anyway, I'm also a murderer who doesn't blink, even if there are many reasons, I can't shirk this sin. is like a murderer, and he still wants to be redeemed...... It's ridiculous......

The body trembled uncontrollably, Xiao Ai buried his head in my arms, and the arm holding me increased his strength again.

After a long time, I finally calmed down a bit.

Well, it doesn't matter, anyway, when all of this approached the organization, didn't they all have already come to their senses.

"Xiaohui, Xiaowai......"

After a while, the voices of Xiaolan and Kazuha came from behind us.

Because my back to Xiao Ai was against the big tree, so they couldn't see that we were hugging, Xiao Ai and I hurriedly separated when they heard this, I pretended that nothing had happened, turned my head to Xiao Lan and smiled at them: "Sister Xiao Lan, you also come out for a walk?"

"Yes, because I've been here with Shinichi's parents before, and now that I look at it, I really miss it. Xiaolan smiled while looking left and right.

"Really, it's a beautiful view. Kazuye also exclaimed. Conan and Hattori looked bored, hanging behind them and walking weakly.

"Ah, it's a wedding ceremony......" walked forward, and Kazuha saw the wedding ceremony being held in front of the auditorium at a glance, and exclaimed in surprise.

"It's beautiful...... Xiaolan muttered, her eyes full of longing.

"True Romantic ......" and Ye have completely fallen into delusion. As for who they are longing for and delusional, just look at the two behind.

"I said Xiaolan," After a while, Kazuha suddenly teased Xiaolan, "You were in the scene with Kudo just now, right?"

"What are you talking about, I didn't think about it!" Xiaolan blushed and denied it loudly.

"Really, with the expression of a young girl......

"Hmm......" Xiao Lan was embarrassed for a moment, but immediately thought of a counterattack trick: "So let's talk to Ye Cai......" Xiao Lan put on an expression of "I know everything".

"What, we don't have that!" As soon as the matter was about himself, He Ye immediately became flustered, and he couldn't care about teasing Xiaolan anymore, and argued with a blushing face.

"Is it~??What do you mean by 'that'?I~~We~~?" Xiaolan, who grabbed Kazuha's sore foot, began to become proud.

"Don't be so loud!"

"Hah! sorry......"

The girl's energetic playfulness invisibly relieved my depressed thoughts a lot, and then we came together with Xiaolan and his party. Still, taking into account certain factors, I consciously or unconsciously distanced myself from them.

Conan looked at me and didn't speak.

"This is Yunchang Pond," Xiaolan said to us as she walked to a large pond, "I've been here by bicycle from the riverside villa with Shinichi before......"

The water quality of the pond is crystal clear, the water surface is smooth as a mirror, the waves are not exciting, the blue sky and white clouds are reflected on it, and the scenery is very beautiful against the background of the green mountains and mangroves.

"It's beautiful...... As Xiaolan said...... "Although I have praised it many times, for beautiful things, Kazuha does not hesitate to praise herself."

"Yes, yes," Xiaolan first happily agreed, and then looked at the calm level, and her tone began to become melancholy: "I miss it so much...... I don't know what's going on, even though it's only been two or three years......"

It's not the scenery that I miss, but the people in the scene......

I turned my head to look at Conan, who was standing silently on the side, and saw that Conan was also silently looking at the water with a nostalgic gaze, but his mind was no longer there.

What a place with shared memories...... Aren't we a little redundant?

Shaking my head amusedly, I quietly took Xiao Ai's hand, shook my head lightly in the face of Xiao Ai's questioning gaze, made a silent gesture, and pointed to the two people next to me who were stuck in their memories.

Xiao Ai's eyes became clear, and he obediently followed me quietly in the direction of returning.

As soon as Xiao Ai and I walked a few steps away, Hattori's voice came from behind me: "Hey, Heye, go back." ”

I smiled slightly, Hattori, he is indeed a good person.
