Conan: I Am Surrounded By Undercover

The next day, New Taipei Village.

A heavy snow fell last night, and Matsuda Jinhei had to stay at a hotel near the Niigata Prefectural Police Station for one night. After dawn, the Niigata Prefectural Police drove him and Sato Miwako back to the hotel to get their luggage.

"The weather is good today!" Sato Miwako sighed after getting off the bus.

"Do you want to play here for a few more days?" The county police who drove the car warmly invited, "The snow festival in the village is not over yet. The two of you have worked so hard to investigate the case a few days ago, so you can relax."

Sato Miwako waved his hands again and again: "No, no, we have already booked a Shinkansen ticket to go back at noon."

"Do you want me to **** you?" the county police asked.

"No, we can go by ourselves." Matsuda Jinping refused.

The car drove away, and the two walked towards the hotel together.

There was a homicide in this hotel yesterday, and the owner was arrested by the Niigata Prefectural Police for violating the privacy of others by installing cameras at random. Now the hotel is managed by the owner's younger brother.

The case was successfully resolved, and Mikazu Sato felt more relaxed. As soon as she entered the hotel, she said to Matsuda Jinhei, "I want to go to the store and bring some souvenirs for Officer Meguro and the others. Do you want to go with us?"

"I dont go."

Matsuda Jinhei's mood was completely different.

The "accidental" death of two prisoners (one of them was the murderer who killed him), the current situation of Zhufu and Jianggu, the dangerous criminal organization with unknown purpose... These things weighed on his mind. Didn't sleep well.

"You can choose slowly, I'll be waiting for you in the restaurant next door." He added, reaching into his pocket to touch the cigarette case.

Sato Miwako knew that smoking was allowed in the hotel restaurant here, she nodded to show that she knew, and then walked into the souvenir shop next to her alone.

Matsuda Jinhei watched her leave, turned and walked towards the restaurant.

The restaurant is small, with light brown wallpaper that is very close to the wood, and a red carpet on the floor. There is a floor-to-ceiling window on the outer wall, which can give a panoramic view of the snowy scenery outside.

There was a man sitting by the window, and the warm golden sunlight fell on his long hair, making the red color more and more dazzling.

The plates on the dining table were already empty, and he turned his head to look out the window, wondering if he was enjoying the scenery or simply sitting there in a daze.

He raised his head when he heard footsteps, and inadvertently looked at Matsuda Jinping.

Matsuda Jinping paused for a while, and he turned around who wanted to sit on the seat by the door. He went straight to the seat opposite the man.

There are only the two of them in the restaurant now. This move can be said to be very abrupt and somewhat offensive, but the red-haired man just raised his eyebrows without saying anything to stop him, watching him pull out the chair and sit down in front of him.

Matsuda Jinping took out the cigarette case, and with a slight flick of his right hand, still wrapped in bandages, a cigarette popped out.

"Do you mind the smell of smoke?" he asked.

Yamao Yosuke glanced at him lightly: "Please, this is a public place."

Matsuda Jinping put the cigarette in his mouth, lit it with a lighter, and the faint smell of tobacco permeated. He took a breath, turned his head and slowly exhaled a puff of smoke.

, with complex emotions surging inside.

He also had another purpose in returning to the hotel, that is, he wanted to see Yosuke Yamao again.

He wanted to ask the man who designed the two bombs that changed his fate - on the reservoir yesterday, why save him?

"……very beautiful."

"……what?"

Matsuda Jinping didn't realize what the other party was saying.

"—I mean that cherry tree." Yosuke Yamao raised his chin and gestured out the window.

Matsuda Jinpei looked in the direction he was pointing. It was a big tree planted by the roadside. It had no leaves or petals on it. The branches were bare, with only a few black crows parked on the branches.

"The cherry blossoms blooming in the sun are the most beautiful..."

...

Matsuda Jinpei left the restaurant and stood on the terrace outside the hotel smoking a cigarette.

His eyes fell on the cherry blossom tree. During the time he came out, more crows flew from a distance and stopped there. From a distance, it was a piece of darkness, completely covering up the branches that could have bloomed cherry blossoms.

Crows are gregarious creatures, they travel in packs, and in this country... no, everywhere in the world.

"Shh-"

The door was suddenly pushed open, and Matsuda Jinping thought it was Sato who found it and wanted to say something to her. Taking him back and looking back, he was stunned.

It wasn't Sato Mikazu who opened the door, but a boy who had a relationship with him and stayed at this hotel...Grey Clow, a boy who was suspected of having an important connection with yesterday's case.

Beside him, Zhu Fu Jingguang stood there quietly, holding their hands together.

"Officer Matsuda!" the boy shouted happily.

Matsuda Jinping controlled himself not to see Zhufu Jingguang, and greeted the boy with a natural attitude: "Are you going back to Tokyo?"

"I booked a ticket for 10 o'clock. I want to take Su as soon as possible... Lu Chuan went home and rested well."

The boy's eyes fell on Matsuda Jinping's face. He seemed to want to have a few more words with his good-looking benefactor, but he didn't let go of Zhu Fu Jingguang.

"Is he not feeling well?"

"Well, it's a little bit, but it's not a big problem, as long as I send him back to a safe place to rest well..." The boy spoke quickly, "We have to go first. Goodbye, Officer Matsuda."

While they were talking, Zhu Fu Jingguang lowered his head halfway without saying a word, and didn't even raise his head.

When the boy was talking, when Matsuda Jinhei was talking, when he was brought up...he didn't even look up, even glanced around.

Those familiar eyes were fixed on a certain point in the sky, and he seemed to have completely lost his perception of his surroundings, and the only connection with the world was the hand that held the boy's hand - Matsuda Jinping found that in the boy's When he stopped, Zhufu squeezed his hand even tighter.

"...Goodbye, be careful on the road."

Matsuda Jinhei looked at the teenager from the criminal organization, took his former police academy friend, and passed him by.

They walked down the stairs and passed the cherry tree that had long passed its blooming season.

The crows on the tree were disturbed, flapping their wings and flying. Accompanied by the continuous chirping, they walked towards the end of the road, further and further, until they disappeared.

...

Apello leaned against the window, two emails from a few minutes ago on his phone screen. The sending time was only a few seconds apart, making people wonder if the two agreed to send it together.

【How about Angstra? 】

[I took Scotland back first, and I will invite you to Tokyo to play when I have time in the future! ——angostura]

He swiped his finger across the screen and opened the email he received late last night.

【Is there a problem in Scotland? --gin]

"..."

Cherry blossoms blooming in the sun are a beauty that he can willingly step into danger just to witness its beauty.

On the contrary, the cherry blossoms drifting into the darkness... just like the beast that came to attack them last night, exuding an unbearable aura~www.NovelMTL.com~ people don't want to take a second look.

Apello watched the two black dots disappear and started writing an email to Gin.

[At least I didn't see the problem. ——aperol]

One is a model worker who does things in accordance with the organization's charter and rarely messes around, and the other is a lunatic who knows he exists and doesn't dare to provoke him at will.

Apello didn't think his flesh could be tougher than a wild bear.

and……

Recalling the look in Angstra's eyes last night, Apello pressed the send button.

If only that eye could one day become more similar to that gentleman...

This is the real beauty in this world.
