Chapter 12 Rice Flower Town, Talented Talents
"Speaking of which...... Do you still have to give you a name to be a real family? Aitto thought as he recalled what had been written in How to Get a Pet magazine.
The Shiba Inu on his shoulder clutched his clothes tightly, for fear of being blown away by a sudden gust of wind, and his paws made of paper were a little creased.
"Let's call it a cookie!" Aitto clasped his hands together.
Today's dessert happened to be cookies.
"You like it too, don't you?" He smiled cheerfully and touched the head of the little Shiba Inu on his shoulder.
"Shinichi, look, is that kid a foreigner? It's so cute. A female voice rang out.
"Isn't this the new imp who moved in......" followed by Shinichi Kudo's voice.
Aitto looked up in the direction the voice had come from.
"Shinichi, do you know him? Newly moved ...... Is it really a foreign child? Maoliland's voice was gentle.
"Hey, what are you doing here? Let me guess......" Shinichi Kudo looked at Miyamoto Aito.
I didn't notice much when I was separated by a distance before, but I found out when I got closer.
This little imp is not too short.
It looks like ......
Isn't he still an elementary school student?
Wearing a sweatshirt, sneakers, a collar around his neck, black gloves on his hands, and knee pads on his knees.
No matter how you look at it, it looks like a sports-loving ...... Bad schoolboys?
Shinichi Kudo: Are there any bad things in the current group of elementary school students?
But I've exchanged a few words with each other before, and it doesn't feel like it......
"I'm walking the dog." The white-haired boy tilted his head and motioned for the other to look at the little Shiba Inu on his shoulder.
"It's called cookies, it's cute." His tone was full of pride in introducing his family.
Kudo Shinichi looked at the other person's shoulder, which was obviously a Shiba Inu made of paper.
looked at the other party's face full of seriousness and said that he was walking the dog, and fell into deep thought.
Shinichi Kudo: As a detective, I haven't seen anything before.
I've never seen this before.
A dog made of serious walking paper......
Do you have any special hobbies?
"Wow, did you do this yourself? So cute, like the real thing. Maoliran looked down at the Shiba Inu on Ait's shoulder, his face full of surprise.
It's made of paper, but it's very real.
"Can I touch it?" Maoriran asked.
"The cookies are very good, touch them." Aitto said with a big smile.
So Maoliran reached out and touched the little Shiba Inu.
"It's really the feel of paper...... It's amazing. Maolilan looked surprised.
"You little ghost, you can't be a primary school student." Kudo Shinichi narrowed his eyes with a skeptical expression.
“…… If you're 12 years old, you're a schoolboy. Aitto hesitated.
He didn't actually go to school.
Still, there are a few things to know about the school.
"Aren't you a proper elementary school student?" Kudo Shinichi said with a dead fish's eye.
What, the neighbor who moved here is an elementary school student, and there are no adults in the family.
What an irresponsible parent.
I have to fight with my parents.
Suddenly you can understand the behavior of this little kid made of paper.
Sure enough, it's because of loneliness.
Shinichi Kudo thought about his act of entertaining himself as a child playing detective and a prisoner at the same time.
But......
Which school will teach elementary school students to make dogs made of paper!
"Why didn't you go to school today?" Kudo Shinichi asked.
Through reasoning, he easily came to the truth that Miyamoto Aito did not go to school.
“…… Because I don't have a school? Aitto stroked his hair, his tone hesitant.
Is he going to school too?
Gin Papa didn't say it.
He also did not go to school in the United States.
"When you first came to Japan, haven't you found a good school yet?" Shinichi Kudo said as he pinched his chin with his index finger and thumb.
"Probably." Aitto nodded.
Instead, he had been training at the base for some time.
The teachers are Gin, Shiho Miyano, Junerik, and several other members.
I learned a lot.
"Then you have to let your family find a good school quickly, if you enter the school too late, you will be rejected by other imps, especially those like you who look like a foreigner." Kudo Shinichi said slowly with both hands on the back of his head.
Miyamoto Aitto has white hair and blue eyes, and even his eyelashes are white, which is simply conspicuous in the crowd.
Especially for the little ones.
They don't care about anything else, they only care that Miyamoto Aito is different from them, so they reject each other.
At the beginning, even Xiaolan, who had nothing special, was bullied by her classmates.
Or did I help her?
Shinichi Kudo's memories slowly return to his childhood.
Hawkers, Miyamoto Aito looks like he's easy to be bullied.
Maybe even if you are ostracized, the other party will not feel it.
Looking at the white-haired teenager's puzzled expression, Shinichi Kudo showed a shyly smile that succeeded in his prank.
"Lie to you, maybe you can rely on your face to make that group of classmates treat you differently." Kudo Shinichi spread his hands.
"Aitto's words, this will definitely not happen." Mao Lilan said softly with a smile on the side.
Give Aitto a familiar feeling.
He thought for a moment and understood where the familiar feeling came from.
It's the same type as Sister Akemi.
Whether it's temperament or occasional eyes, it's very similar.
"Sister Xiaolan is very similar to one of my sisters." Aitto said seriously.
"Huh? Aitto can also call me sister. Mao Lilan's expression was surprised for a moment, and he smiled softly.
"Uh-huh." Aitto nodded.
If Shinichi Kudo is the brother of the reserve, Maoriran is the reserve...... Sister-in-law!
Aito's eyes lit up, and a new family membership was unlocked✓
Or if Moriran is her sister, Shinichi Kudo is her brother-in-law.
Neither of these identities is anyone.
It feels like the family is getting bigger and great.
"Bang-"
There was a slight explosion in the distance, and because of the distance, it should have been louder if it had been closer.
"Dr. Asa is working on his invention again." Kudo Shinichi grinned with his hands on the back of his head.
"Seriously, indeed." Aitto nodded.
He's been blown up twice since he moved here.
On average, once a day.
This also means that the other party is doing serious research every day.
"Really...... It's so boring, why didn't you encounter a case today......" Kudo Shinichi kicked a small stone at his feet one by one, and said wistfully.
"Case?" Aitto blinked.
"This guy is a Sherlock Holmes fan, and he's a high school detective, and his mind is full of cases and reasoning, and he will feel bored without cases." Mao Lilan smiled gently, but he did not hesitate to complain.
"Is it a homicide?" Aitto asked.
If Shinichi Kudo wants to encounter a murder case, he can wait and create one.
"Not only that, whether it's decryption or murder, as long as it's related to reasoning, Shinichi likes it very much." Mao Lilan shook his head and said.
"That's right." Aitto nodded.
Probably a detective like Sherlock Holmes.
"Ahh
A scream rang out.
Kudo Shinichi suddenly became energetic, and ran in the direction where the voice came from with a solemn face.
"Shinichi, wait for me." Mao Lilan also hurriedly followed.
The white-haired boy stood in place, glanced a few times in the direction from which the voice came from, and raised his steps to walk in the other direction.
"There's still a few streets left to finish, let's go for the cookies, let's continue to find the way." He touched the little Shiba Inu lying on his shoulder.
