Chapter 20: The Two Who Parted Ways

After negotiating the entrustment, Gumeimen proposed a 10% intermediary fee.

That is, if the commission fee is written according to the commission of 2 million, 200,000 will be given to Sakaguchi as an introduction fee.

Sakaguchi said that he didn't need to do this, saying that he was grateful for the favor.

But Gu Meimen insisted on giving.

"I hate human favors the most, this thing is the most expensive thing in the world, I don't want to have to fight with people in the future, now I can buy it out for only 200,000, it's too cheap, why not?"

That's what Gumeon said.

Sakaguchi saw that he was resolute, so he agreed.

"Alright, Xiao Ai, let's go."

After talking about business, Sakaguchi got up from his seat and was about to greet the gray hara beside him.

"No, Uncle Sakaguchi, people still want to drink another cup of milk tea!"

Gray Yuan Ai used a very sweet voice to make a coquettish gesture to Sakaguchi.

"Okay, I'll wait for you in the car outside, as soon as possible!"

Sakaguchi smiled and touched Ai Ashbara's head before leaving the café.

On the seats, only Gu Meimen and Gray Yuan Wai were left, and the two sat opposite each other.

"Little sister, what's the matter?" Gu Meimen raised his eyebrows, "You should have something to do before you deliberately stayed, right?" ”

Gray Yuan tilted his little head, like an innocent child, and his ice blue eyes looked at Gu Meimen.

"Shu Xiao, people want to ask you a question."

"Children, please speak normally, thank you."

Gu Meimen glanced at her, looking at the expression that this little girl deliberately played, to be honest, he almost threw up from just now.

However, Gray Plains' expression was still the same posture.

"Shu Xiao, how are you going to deal with the next case?"

She asked, blinking innocent eyes.

Gu Meimen had not yet spoken, when another voice suddenly came from the seat behind him.

"Gray Plains, don't pretend in front of this guy, he can see it."

I saw Conan poke his head out of the gap between the two seats, and at the same time, his body turned over from the other side and sat down next to Gray Plains.

Gu Meimen narrowed his eyes, and this little ghost was really eavesdropping again.

"The question Gray Yuan asked is also the question I want to ask."

Conan looked at Gu Meimen coldly and said.

"Although I don't think you will give any good answer, I still want to advise you that this case is my uncle...... Maori Kogoro values it very much, the murderer is a police officer who knows the law and breaks the law, such people are not tolerated in the world, if you still have a little professional ethics of a lawyer, please give up this commission, don't make a mistake again! ”

"Hey, here we go again."

Gu Meimen sighed deeply.

"I don't understand, why are you a little ghost, a child who has never even been out of society, has to rely on his parents for money, and doesn't know the suffering of the world, can always tell this kind of big truth that seems to see through everything? I also want to ask you, what do you really know? ”

"I just don't understand, your psychology of defending murderers!"

Conan took a deep breath and almost shouted.

He shouted too loudly, attracting the attention of the other guests in the café, who were whispering as they watched.

"Oh, the way you look reminds me of my old high school days."

Komimen looked at Conan with a smirk, and at the same time raised his hands, signaling the guests not to care.

"At that time, our Chinese teacher asked us to write an essay about autumn, asking us to describe the bleakness of autumn and the scene of frost leaves flying all over the sky. I thought, I get up so early every day to study, and after school to eleven or twelve o'clock in the evening, where do I get the effort to understand the desolation of autumn? Therefore, the final result is to use my own imagination to pile up all kinds of gorgeous rhetoric to depict the autumn that I have never seen......"

After a pause, Gu Meimen looked at Conan and smiled slightly sarcastically.

"Little child, little detective, your current situation is just like ours back then, no different!"

“……”

Conan gritted his teeth.

Gu Meimen's words are always like a knife.

After a while, he suddenly turned his head and asked Gray Yuan beside him, "Gray Yuan, what do you think?" ”

At this moment, Gray Yuan Mourning has retracted the little girl posture she had disguised before.

"I think he's right, people have to go through something, see something before they can say something. The country on the other side once said a classic saying......"

Gray Yuan said lightly.

"Don't persuade others to be kind without their suffering."

Although the tone was light, a slight sadness could be felt.

Conan was silent for a moment and said, "I can't understand it...... Grayplain, are you going to stand with this guy? ”

"No, I didn't plan to do that at first."

Gray Yuan Wai shook his head softly, and his ice-blue eyes looked at Conan quietly.

"It's just because you said I'm the same kind of person as him, so I want to come and see, that's all."

"So, what now? What about after reading it? ”

Conan almost stared at Gray Plains.

Ash Yuan looked directly at him, without flinching.

"Now I think you were right."

“……”

"Gray Yuan, is there no way to turn back?"

Looking at the calm eyes of the girl in front of him, Conan felt a little sad at this moment, as if the valve had been deflated.

"You left a letter and disappeared, the doctor was so sad that he didn't eat properly for three days, and he was still waiting for you to go back, standing at the door every afternoon, hoping to see you come back with your school bag."

"No way." Gray Plains shook his head quietly, "You are the light, living under the warm and bright sun. And I was dark, and I could only hide in the sewers at night. There is never an intersecting line between us. ”

"Gray Plains ......"

"Elementary school students don't learn from adults to play any bitter love scenes at night, okay?"

Conan looked at Gray Yuan Ai and wanted to say something more, however, a joking voice next to him directly interrupted him.

Gu Meimen looked at the two seven-year-old children in front of him and sighed.

"You've been grunting beside you, you're going to live and I'm going to die, I'm really embarrassed to hear as an adult, pay attention to the impact, okay? There are people next to me who are secretly filming you with their mobile phones, thank you. ”

“……”

“……”

The two of them glanced around and closed their mouths.

"Since you have decided so much, then I can't say anything."

Conan got up from his seat and shook his head.

"I just hope to see you next time, we won't be enemies."

With that, he took one last look at Gray Yuan Ai and walked towards the Maori office upstairs.

Gray Yuan looked at Conan's back, and there was no wave in his faint eyes.

Now that the decision has been made, there is nothing to regret.

"Hey, little sister, he's gone, what are you doing here?"

The voice of Gu Meimen was heard in my ears.
