A Detective: I Believe in Science

Chapter 239 The lingering ghost
new monk

Belmode was sitting alone in the room. At this time, she took off the disguise on her face and returned to her original appearance.

His fingers kept flipping the paper on the table, and the meaning on his face became more and more incomprehensible.

After browsing through all the contents of the paper, Belmode closed his eyes, frowned slightly, as if confirming something, and then murmured in a low voice.

"You are so courageous. After betraying the organization, you seem to be a lot stupid."

After all, he opened his eyes, gently picked up the dart on the table, moved his fingers slightly, and the dart landed in the middle of the dart board on the wall, where a photo with a cross marked by someone had already hung on it .

Through the light, it can be seen that the photo is exactly what Huiyuan looks like when he grows up, and the dart just hit his forehead.

Although Noah was already trying his best to guard against Belmode, he still didn't wait to block the other party's various investigations.

After Belmode suspected that Conan was Kudo Shinichi, he immediately confirmed it, and conducted investigations from school, family, and various aspects.

For this reason, she deliberately sneaked into the Metropolitan Police Department alone and stole all records related to Conan.

Then, she found a girl who suddenly appeared next to Conan.

Ai Haibara
And she recognized at a glance that this person was Miyano Shiho. She had the password of the organization's database, so she had naturally seen Miyano Shiho when he was a child.

She had heard indirectly that Hui Yuan seldom missed classes, but what puzzled her was that she had never met her at school, not even during a physical examination.

When she had any doubts, she went to solve them. Finally, when she found out that Huiyuan lived in Noah's house, she suddenly remembered that she often ran into him at school recently, and she immediately understood.

Her identity has already been seen through by the other party, so Hui Yuan deliberately avoids her and does not come into direct contact with her.

She didn't know that Hui Yuan suffered from organization phobia, she was even more puzzled. She thought she had outstanding acting skills and would not be easily discovered by others, and even if they were discovered, why the other party was so sure that she was a member of the organization.

But these are not important anymore, the other party will never see her.

"Xue Li, you have been out for a long time, have you forgotten the organization's behavior?"

……

"Xiao Bai, come here."

Following Huiyuan's shout, a furry little guy came running from a distance and threw himself into Huiyuan's arms, laughing and laughing constantly.

Regarding the name of the little guy, Noah thought a lot about it, mighty, domineering, mysterious, everything that one expects to find, but Huiyuan refused to use it all, and just insisted on using the name Xiaobai.

Whenever Huiyuan called this name, Noah always complained silently in his heart, a lion named it a dog.

Xiaobai is very human, which makes Noah's domestication much easier. Although he doesn't know how to domesticate, he has a system.

If it wasn't for a chance encounter with this little white lion, Noah would have even upgraded himself, forgetting the rewards given by the system.

Originally, Noah thought that the lottery draw for upgrades was a theorem, but he did not expect that the dog system is not like this. The lottery draw is random, which does not mean that the upgrade will definitely draw a lottery.

When it was upgraded to the third level, it didn't appear. Instead, it was randomly given an item. After seeing the function of the item, Noah threw it into the space angrily, shouting that it was useless.

It wasn't until he saw the little white lion that Noah remembered the correct way to use this prop, so he didn't hesitate to spend a lot of money to buy the lion.

The prop is a bag of pet food, and the notes are very concise and humane.

So, with the idea that a lion is also a pet, Noah fed the bag of feed to Xiaobai and ate it.

The specific results are unknown to Noah. After all, Xiaobai is still too young, and he can't even beat the neighbor's rhubarb on weekdays.

"Xiao Ai, stop playing, I will take you to a fun place today."

"Can I bring Xiaobai?"

"cannot!"

The veins on Noah's forehead were throbbing, and he gritted his teeth and said these two words, Huiyuan was almost glued to Xiaobai now.

Eat, go to the toilet, sleep, take it with you all the time, if you don't stop it forcibly, I'm afraid you want to take it with you in class.

Although this is in line with the purpose of buying it in the first place, it is too exaggerated, and Noah firmly believes that it is more conducive to cultivating relationships after a period of separation.

"Then I'm not going."

……

Huiyuan was carried out by Noah with a dark face, full of reluctance.

After Noah took her out of Tokyo by car, he asked belatedly.

"Where are we going?"

"You'll know where you are."

Huiyuan was not reconciled and wanted to continue asking, but seeing that Noah's expression was a little off, he swallowed the words again.

Hmm...you'll know when you get there.

In the end, the taxi took them to Yokohama City. Looking at the strange city in front of him, Haibara once again cast doubtful eyes on Noah.

This time Noah did not continue to remain mysterious, but his tone was slightly cheerful.

"Xiao Ai, do you know which country I lived in before?"

"I remember you said before, China."

There was a look of reminiscence on Noah's face, how long had he not heard anyone say these two words.

"That's right, and today is a very special day in China, the Spring Festival."

Haibara looked thoughtfully at the red-shrouded street in front of her. Because of Noah, she had also learned about Chinese customs and culture.

It is of great significance to know that Chinese New Year is equivalent to New Year's Day in Japan, which means the first day of the new year.

The original place where Noah brought ashes today is the largest Chinatown in Japan, and the closest one to them, Yokohama Chinatown.

Because the timeline of Ke Xue's world is quite confusing, and he has no idea about the date, in order to celebrate the Spring Festival, he deliberately inquired about the street number of Yokohama Chinatown, and after repeated consultations, he finally confirmed today.

"Let's go, let's take you for a stroll, let you experience different customs and cultures."

Noah didn't know what the Chinatown was like in the past, but today, it was really bustling here.

Listening to the familiar Chinese and looking at the Spring Festival couplets in front of the roadside shops, Noah felt very kind in his heart, and he felt as if he had returned to China again.

Here, he felt that he was not abandoned in this world, he still had compatriots.

Haibara looked at Noah curiously, she had never seen Noah so relaxed.

Although the usual Noah always had a smile on his face, it was far from being as happy as standing. It was a smile from the heart.

……

"Tired or not, I really worked hard on you today. I originally planned to come here by myself, but the Spring Festival means reunion, so I finally brought you here."

Haibara smiled and shook her head. She was very satisfied with today's trip. Although she was very tired, she felt a different atmosphere here than before. More importantly, what Noah said just now made her very happy.

Of course, Noah didn't believe Huiyuan's reaction. They had been shopping for a long time. Now Huiyuan is still a child, so it's no wonder he wasn't tired, but he didn't say anything because he was afraid of spoiling his interest.

Kneeling down with his back facing Huiyuan, Noah skillfully put Huiyuan on his back, stood up and said softly.

"Take you something delicious."

Huiyuan, who was already tired, lay on Noah's back and nodded silently. She was indeed a little hungry, and it had been a long time since she ate last time.

The Chinatown at night is a bit deserted. After all, the people who come here are Chinese or overseas students from other cities, and they have to go back to their place of residence at night.

"Do you think Conan is a lingering ghost, and you can see him no matter where you go?"

At the entrance of a restaurant named Conan Doyle House, Noah complained to Hui Yuan behind him, "You can come across these two words when you go shopping in Chinatown.
