Conan: I won’t clean up my innocence after joining the organization

"Why did you say those things to him."

In the driver's seat, Ai Tanihara spoke calmly and asked Belmod who was sitting in the back seat.

"I just don't want to burden you any more, and I really can't leave."

Belmod looked out the window and knocked back Ai Tanihara's words.

"Is it because of that kid?"

Breathing heavily, feeling the blood that was about to flow out again, Tanihara Ai was forced to shut up and swallow the blood first.

"Absinthe, Calvados would have lived."

He could have lived.

Even if she really couldn't come over at that time, she could still endure it a little longer and carry Calvados away.

"It was the path he chose."

Tanihara Ai pursed her lips.

All words became boring, and Ai Tanihara stopped talking about such meaningless things.

Life always seems to be like this, never letting her get what she wants, not just her, but others too.

She can't save anyone.

Nothing can be left behind, nothing can be grasped.

The will of the world sounded the alarm and told Ai Tanihara that changing one's destiny is never as simple as enduring pain.

"A year ago, when I was still in New York, I disguised myself as a murderer. I was shot by the former Rye during a mission, and then I met the two of them."

Belmode did not go to see Ai Tanihara who was driving, nor did she care whether Ai Tanihara listened. She just calmly told her past.

"I was planning to kill the girl that day, but something happened. They ignored the consequences and saved me who wanted to kill them."

"I asked them that day, and they said, "You wouldn't think so much about saving people in an emergency." "

"I always thought that it was impossible for an angel to smile sincerely at me, but that day I discovered that there was actually an angel beside me."

Recalling the past, Belmod smiled a little more.

"They saved me, and that may sound ridiculous, but that's the truth, so I won't let them die, and I don't want anyone to threaten them."

As she spoke, the person who had never spoken made a swallowing sound, and the next second, Tanihara Ai spoke.

"Absinthe, I don't want to talk about this anymore."

"I'm tired."

'So don't remind me again. '

There is no point in debating whether the decision is right or wrong in front of him. In the end, he will fall into death like Calvados and there will be no difference from the beginning to the end.

Even she herself had too many biases, so for her, there was nothing she could say.

The car he was driving crashed into an office building.

After Belmode rubbed his sore head and got out of the car, the car that seemed to be smoking was driven away again by Tanihara Ai.

late at night.

Ai Tanihara walked through her yard full of weeds, took another look, then turned and entered the house.

—

(partly cloudy)

Here, the turning point of fate will appear again and again, and I, who do not belong here, always try to reverse my fate again and again.

However, I have forgotten that this unavoidable life is a one-way road that cuts off my retreat. Every time I take a step, the road I have already traveled becomes an established fact.

—

"It's really bad."

Tanihara Ai sighed and laughed at herself.

It was clear that someone had died, but for a moment I was glad that he was still alive.

Fortunately, the fact that he is alive has become a fact.

【Host? ] System, who was still reading what was written in the diary, was stunned when he heard Tanihara Ai's self-deprecating words.

Tanihara Ai thought for a while and lowered her eyes.

"Want to see him."

'Want to see him. '

At this second, the thoughts in his heart and the words he spoke became consistent.

After buffering for a while, Tanihara Ai shook her head again to suppress the idea.

It is better not to break the path that you have chosen not to tread.

People's selfishness is very scary. Once there is the first time, the door to all subsequent selfishness will be opened.

Maybe one day in the future I would really go crazy and run in front of him regardless of selfishness.

Desire him to choose himself.

Thinking this, Ai Tanihara turned over and patted her face to the two big mouths.

'What was I thinking. '

What does a man destined to die want?

Tanihara Ai put the diary away.

She wouldn't do something like this that would cause him trouble.

Early the next morning, the system looked at the host who had woken up early. He stopped reading the storybook for a moment and kept a shocked expression throughout.

At this moment, Ai Tanihara is pulling weeds in her yard.

Because there had been no management all year round, there were many weeds that had grown up and were not easy to get rid of. Tanihara Ai pulled them out for a while and looked at the time before turning around and going to the safe house again.

The news of Calvados's death eventually reached the ears of the sniper duo.

Chianti, who rarely stayed in the safe house, drank glass after glass of wine, while Cohen poured the wine silently.

Only two of the three people who had been drinking together were left.

Chianti gestured to Cohen's reticence as usual, wanting to compare it with the people next to him, but he remembered it only after he was drunk.

There is no one who can compare.

"Cohen, pour him a glass of wine too."

Cohen glanced at the drunk man lying on the bar, then took out an empty wine glass and poured a glass of Calvados.

The glass containing the wine was put down and landed where Calvados had last sat.

Chianti picked up the wine glass and collided with the glass with a crisp sound.

The nervous self that had always been so restrained myself.

"Calvados, why do you talk less than Cohen today?"

Ai Tanihara, who had been lying on the sofa for a long time, finally sat up.

Unexpectedly I couldn't sleep today.

Looking at the two people who were still drinking, Ai Tanihara put the blanket aside and walked over.

Nodding slightly to Cohen, Cohen also took down the snow tree wine.

The wine slipped into the glass, and Tanihara Ai picked up the wine glass and clinked it with Chianti.

Finally, I heard the sound of clinking glasses that didn’t belong to me.

Chianti fell asleep on her stomach.

Ai Tanihara grabbed Chianti's arm and threw him to his usual sleeping place.

She was covered with her own blanket, and Ai Tanihara looked at the wine that had not been touched.

Maintaining the principle of not wasting, Tanihara Ai drank it in one gulp.

He staggered a few steps and fell on Chianti's body.

……

"Calvados, Wynyard asked you to help me deal with the scene again?"

The girl sighed, put her hands on her hips, and turned to one side guiltily.

If he hadn't been habitually setting fire to the place every time, and the number of police officers patrolling recently had increased, the hard-working Calvados would not have run in both directions.

"Yeah." Calvados just responded, then looked at the fingerprints illuminated by the ultraviolet light and erased them.

"By the way, how about we go for a drink tonight? I'm treating you. Just in time to tell you how you fell in love with Wynyard."

The girl suddenly remembered something and quickly changed the subject away from her useless self.

"Want to hear it?"

"Of course, I'll be curious about what you say every day when I see you holding that photo."

Calvados took out the photo and looked at it twice.

That was taken secretly by him after meeting Belmode for the first time.

It was only then that Belmod discovered the camera, and the photo was frozen at the moment when Belmod looked at it.

"Okay." Calvados nodded.
