"Well, you mean to say that the reason why Miss Nobuko is not married yet......"

"Yes, it's not like she's completely out of reach. The Nagato family, the family is well-off, several elders are kind, there are not too many high-level disagreements and struggles within the group, and marrying her can naturally be among them, and many people are very happy. ”

"Having an affair with a married man, uh?"

"As far as I can tell, it looks like this."

"Hmm......"

"She seems to have always been obsessed with this relationship and is unwilling to give it up no matter what, and it is for this reason that she has always been hostile to me."

"That's a bit unreasonable."

"I think so too, but it shouldn't be due to the fact that I discovered her 'secret'. I tried to communicate with her, but she was reluctant to change her opinion, and I didn't know how Mr. Nagato Michizo told her......"

His mouth kept talking, but Hinata's eyes were out of focus, as if he was looking blankly at a certain location in the void, and his attention was obviously not on what he was saying.

Hoshikawa Hui, who was sitting on the bench with her, spoke without saying a word, and knew that she was actually not interested in chatting at this time, but was just trying to divert her attention by constantly talking.

The impact of Nagato Hidetomi's "death" had already caused a complete collapse, and by the time he found Hinata Yuki, there were only a few tear stains on her face that were not obvious after drying, and she sat here in a daze.

It will take time to digest Xiuchen's death and the truth of the year, and now she is still in the stage of trying to organize normal logic, and wants to regulate her emotions by speaking aimlessly.

According to Donzawa, it won't take much time.

Tang Ze said conclusively: "Believe me, this is a person who is far stronger than her appearance, and you should be able to feel her inner strength from her hall." In no more than a day, she will not only clean up her mood, but even make a complete plan to kill Nagato Koukou......"

Hoshikawa Hui, who had accidentally fallen into the flames and had already experienced it himself, although he didn't know why Tang Ze was able to estimate such a specific time, he was deeply convinced by this statement.

So he adopted a relatively conservative strategy, that is, to do what Don Ze said.

Don't take the initiative to talk to Hinata Yuki, just sit quietly on the side, if she speaks, just take two sentences, if she doesn't speak, then it's enough to sit there in a daze.

She didn't need her own comfort, and he wasn't the one who could comfort her.

As he continued to listen to Hinata talk about the secrets of the Nagato family, he finally felt the movement of the mobile phone that he was carrying in the inner pocket of his clothes.

Ah, it looks like Nagato Kou's side has already done it.

Carefully changing the angle of his sitting position, he secretly flipped out the mobile phone in the inner pocket, clicked on the message and took a look.

As expected, it was the news that informed him of the action.

Taking a light breath, Hoshikawa Teru cleared his throat: "Hinata-san, Mr. Nagato Hidetomi's situation is not optimistic, I can understand your feelings, so I have been hesitating whether I should hand over to you what we found by the lake. ”

Hinata Yuki was recalled to his senses by Nagato Hidetomi's name, stopped the words that had diverged into Yasue's married life, and turned his head in the direction he was sitting: "...... For no reason, there's no reason why you suddenly come and sit with me for so long. Say, I'm mentally prepared. ”

She's received the email and she's seen the worst.

The end of the world was nothing more than that, and she didn't think she could suffer any more blows.

"This is the letter we found from the sacrifice left behind by Mr. Hidetomi Nagato."

Pinching the hard card on the letterhead, Hoshikawa Teru handed it to Hinata Yuki.

Now that the notice letter can be handed over to her, then the Nagato Light in the hall should have been cleaned up and ready to be transported to the destination.

He should also leave as soon as possible and rush over to rendezvous.

Hinata took the envelope he handed him and stared down at it.

The plain envelope was sealed with fire paint, and at first glance, it looked like a drop of white paper with a drop of blood on it.

Hinata Yuki, whose thinking is in an abnormally active state and has too much ability to associate, quickly looked away at the moment of thinking of this metaphor, evaded, and hurriedly tore open the fire paint on the seal and opened the envelope.

Fire paint sealed the letter, which is actually not quite in line with Xiuchen's habits.

Hidetomi is not a type that pays much attention to form, he entrusts his pain to the text, only cares about the text itself, although he has no worries about food and clothing and enough money to squander, he insists on writing only on the simplest letterhead for many years, and never engages in such bells and whistles.

Moments of the lover's past life flowed through his mind, and Hinata, who was stung, curled his fingers before regaining his composure and pulling out the contents of the letterhead.

Thicker and harder than letterboard, red and black concentric circles extend from the center of the card, drawing one's eye to the pattern in the center for the first time.

A red mask with a top hat and flames.

...... the Monster of the Heart?

Yes, two days ago, Xiuchen also discussed this topical ...... with her, intentionally or unintentionally.

The term flashed by, and Hinata Yuki's eyes widened and she quickly flipped through the card.

Newspaper clippings of various sizes are pasted on the front of it.

"Trapped in the flames, there is no way out of your Excellency Yuki Hinata.

Love and hatred are entangled, sorrow and joy are mixed, you are born of resentment in mourning, anger is born in hatred, your heart is unsettled, and evil thoughts are abundant.

You have gone astray, you don't know who to hate, you don't know who to love, you don't know which word to trust, the past is like a mirror, a big dream.

But you are sure of one thing - someone should pay for it.

Your struggles, your hard choices, we all know this twisted despair and retreat, and we accept it.

Respect the Monster of the Heart."

Hinata Yuki looked at the announcement in disbelief, raised his head and looked at Tang Zezhao, who handed the letter to him.

In the moments she had read the letter, the person on the other side of the bench had disappeared without a sound.

Only a white chrysanthemum stained with water marks remained, quietly placed in its place.

————

"Oh, there's movement."

Tang Ze was squatting on the side with a sparkling wooden strip and boredly poking at the dead pig-like Nagato Guangming on the ground, sensing the further burning of the air around him, and raised his head.

"Shade's movements, are you still quite fast?" Akemi Miyano, who was also very bored on the other side, also stood up.

Although Nagato Mitsuki had completely lost consciousness, Karasawa insisted on continuing to burn him before leaving the temple.

It's a good request, but when the temple collapses, they'll have to drag this guy out and put the finishing touches on it.

So while they were waiting, the three of them silently stared around the blazing Nagato Light in a daze.

It's very eerie, there is a kind of experience of simmering soup around a stove, quietly waiting for it to be boiled soft.

"Ark, are you done?" Without hesitation, he bent his bow and arrow, aiming at the Buddha statue whose eyes were wide open in the middle of the fire, and Asai Narumi exclaimed.

"Entry completed." Noah's figure appeared behind them in the next moment, although he was still expressionless and only had a hint of a smile, but the light strip on his body was shining brightly, turning faster than usual, and he was in a very good mood, "Very interesting design, very interesting." I think I'll be able to learn how to use this 'flame' in the future. The effect must be very good in the theater of the external exhibition, more like a game. ”

"It sounds like you're trying to put on a show of some kind of fire ring." Akemi Miyano patted her head, tore off the mask on her face by the way, and unfolded her fan on the ground, "Are we a monster thief group or a circus?" ”

"It's okay to say it's a circus, after all, your boss is a 'joker'." Tang Ze said with a grin, and between his words, he had already begun to concentrate on the whole team, "Okay, be careful, prepare to defend!" ”

In the flames, golden mantras floated, and the Buddha statue sitting there held the lotus flower in the palm of his hand and opened his eyes.

“…… Is that, the shadow of Yuki Hinata? The already tall Buddha statue was farther away from them after starting to get up, and Asai Narumi narrowed his eyes and barely saw what was in the lotus, "What ......is this?" ”

"Gakutu. The Flame of the Gas. Tang Ze, the old game house, said without hesitation almost when he saw the woman's hair and clothes made entirely of flames.

Although it stands to reason that Gakutu should be a male figure...... But to be honest, as far as the games he's played are concerned, most of the Kakutu is set as a girl.

The chest is also deliberately drawn very large.

How to say it, this can be regarded as his own traditional artistic ability, so seeing such a slightly bewitching and beautiful fire god, Tang Ze didn't have too many surprises.

"Ah, is it the god of fire who burned his mother to death because of his birth......" Hearing the name, Asai Narumi nodded understandingly, "It's really a very pessimistic image." ”

"Don't be emotional, two!" Jumping on tiptoe over a string of falling flames, Akemi Miyano shouted, "You two Haori scarves are going to be lit!" Move! ”

————

"Of course it's a good thing to let that guy receive the punishment he deserves, but I still don't understand what this has to do with cheating on Luck." Nagato Hidetomi turned around anxiously, subconsciously covering half of his unrecognizable face as he walked, "Tell her the truth, this was originally my request, but, it's ......"

He really couldn't fully muster up the courage to face Hinata's possible anger and reproach, and he was afraid of how it would all end.

Ah Xing's choice to leave him was a very reasonable thing, and he didn't even have the slightest hint of redeeming the other party's position.

But if one lie is told to another like this, how much better is that than now?

"Hinata-sama is more powerful than you think, relax." Hattori Heiji recalled the news he received, and he was not very confident in persuading him like this.

"She has been the secretary to the president of the Nagato Group for so many years, and this is not an easy position to do. The role of being responsible for uploading and distributing is very much a shrewd mind and flexible messaging. Conan spoke in a much more determined tone.

Because he received an email from Donzawa.

Karasawa said that after Akechi Gorou brought people to the place, he began to tinker with his equipment and sets, and when he had nothing to do for the time being, he first found Hinata Yuki, who was still wandering around the lake, hoping to stabilize her mood somewhat.

I have to say that in order to plan to deceive her, the fact that Nagato Hidetomi is dead is indeed a bit lacking in morality.

The wise Goro who made such a proposal was outrageous, but they didn't seem to be much better off as accomplices, and it was not very surprising that Tang Ze would choose to comfort the "victim" considerately.

Then, he couldn't help but be shocked by what he had received.

"This Miss Hinata is indeed very powerful, and she knows more about the Nagato family than you think. I finally understood a little bit of the reason for the wise design. Remembering the informative email, the corners of Conan's mouth twitched.

"Oh? What is the reason? Hattori Heiji looked over curiously and suspiciously, "That guy can't be, I sent you something strange......"

Since focusing on the investigation of Karazawa's case, although Hattori Heiji is really true and doesn't like to communicate with guys like Akechi Goro who use detectives as a means, he still pinched his nose and had a few letters with him.

He was wisely told about the possible situation at the Karasawa school and the fact that his parents had left Japan for many years because they had been physically threatened.

And took money from him.

Nominal is the consultation fee.

Just the thought of that tone makes him reflexively itch at the root of his teeth.

"The main thing is that Miss Hinata knows the situation of the Nagato family too well, although she may not be able to catch up with the old housekeeper, but she is different from the housekeeper, she is also involved in the complex power relations of the Nagato group...... Therefore, as long as she thinks that Mr. Nagato Hidetomi was victimized by Nagato Kou, even if she digs three feet into the ground, she will definitely find a handle that can bite Nagato Akira to death. ”

Nodding as he spoke, he praised his reasoning, and Conan turned his head to look at the stunned Nagato Hideto, and said in a tone that didn't fit his appearance.

"You really shouldn't lie to her. If you tell her the truth and plan well, even if you can't use fire as a reason, there must be a way to make Nagato pay the price. ”

"Indeed." Regarding this question, Hattori Heiji had to nod approvingly, "Although you don't care about the affairs of the family, no matter what you say, you are the son of Mr. Michizo...... Hey, in fact, if you were willing to explain it earlier, then he might not have a chance to become 'Nagato Bright'. ”

When he said this, the expression on his face was rather unpleasant.

This unpleasantness is not directed at Nagato Hidetomi, but refers to Nagato Kou.

Obviously, he is the one who committed, and it is clear that he should be immersed in the nightmare of the old days because of guilt.

But in the end, this crime became a weapon for him to threaten others with impunity, and it became a ladder for him to further seize wealth and power.

It's really, so unpleasant.

"Hinata-san, you're back."

The attendant, who was standing in the foyer, reflexively stood up as soon as he noticed someone walking through the door.

Yuki Hinata, who was anxious but trying to smile, nodded to him: "Well, those two little detectives said that they might have found some clues, and said that they would have to wait outside for a while." ”

Her state was natural, just like when she left.

She is the future young grandmother of the Nagato family, but because of her position in the company, she has to work hard to deal with the current chaos.

"Oh, okay." The attendant felt sorry for this young lady from the bottom of his heart, and did not care about the situation she introduced.

Hinata Yuki smiled gently again, as she usually did, and at the same time looked at the policeman who was still checking in the living room for a while, and naturally asked, "Where is Miss Kangjiang, where did she go?" ”

"She's worried about Minister Light. I asked the officer to take her to the police station to get the nearby road surveillance. The old man has already fallen asleep, and Miss Nobuko has not returned. Needless to say, his attendant quickly informed her of the situation of the family members.

"That's right......" Hinata nodded, "I'll go back to my room and rest for a while." If you have any questions, please call me directly. ”

"Okay, Hinata-sama."

Without revealing the slightest flaw, she nodded and said hello to the people she met along the way, and quietly walked to the direction of the second floor along the ornate carved steps of the Nagato family.

Since no one is here......

She thought she could find what she was looking for.

Calming down, Hinata walked smoothly to his room.

When the policeman on the other end of the corridor looked away and walked upstairs, she quickened her pace, lightly unscrewed the door of Kang Jiang and Guangming, and dodged in.

Bed, coffee table, dresser......

Nagato Guangming is not a person who will take official business home to deal with, and the room is also more traces of Nagato Yasue's life.

He did have a study at home, but because it was close to Xiuchen's room, he rarely went there.

So, where will the things be......

She made a quick judgment, and quickly turned her gaze to—

Gorgeously designed French cabinetry opposite the bed.

Akira Nagato, in her guess, is the kind of guy who will secretly keep Higashi XZ in a dark compartment and lockbox......

Thinking like this, she quickly opened the drawers one by one, checked for interlayers, and removed the drawers from the slide rails, stroking the back panel behind them.

And quickly found what he was looking for.

"PC ......" moved out the cold weight that was heavy in his hand, and after only one glance, Hinata Yuki pulled the corners of his mouth.

She knew that Akira Nagato was the kind of person who had a lazy attitude on the surface and didn't know anything about work, but in fact would do everything he could to figure out what he couldn't grasp.

What a guy who loves to pretend.

Xiuchen, is this the kind of goods that has been deceived and threatened for 20 years?

Unfolding the laptop, the azure desktop casts a cool sheen on her face, illuminating the resolute look on her face, which looks particularly calm.

It's the beginning of the month, ask for a monthly pass
