Conan: About the fact that I have a black brother

Lin Yucheng went to Qiuyue's house. According to Uehara Yui, Qiuyue Ci's mother was a mathematics teacher at Nagano High School, but she didn't meet her yesterday. She had originally planned to go to Qiuyue's house in person today, but Shangtang Sijia's boyfriend was leaving Nagano today, and Yamato Gansuke was afraid of missing him and had to rush there immediately.

Zhu Fugaoming was busy analyzing the scene. It took more than two policemen to respond to the call, and the only police officer she was familiar with was Lin Xiaochen.

It just so happened that Lin Xiaochen also planned to go out for a walk to relax, so he readily agreed to the other party's request.

Lin Xiaochen finally met Akizuki Michiyo, a middle-aged woman with a serious face. Time did not seem to have left many traces on her face, but it added a sense of maturity and stability to her. Her eyes were deep and sharp, as if she could see through everything; the corners of her mouth were slightly raised, revealing an imperceptible confidence.

Akizuki Michiyo has been teaching for many years, and she naturally exudes a strong scent of books. She is dressed exquisitely and appropriately.

When Lin Xiaochen first met Qiuyue Michiyo's eyes, he couldn't help but be shocked by her powerful aura. That sense of majesty did not come from the decoration of her appearance or the emphasis of her words.

When Akizuki Michiyo saw Lin Xiaochen, she took a few steps forward and extended her hand: "Hello, officer."

"Mrs. Qiuyue, I'm Lin Xiaochen." Lin Xiaochen showed his police officer ID. "I came to you to confirm something. I hope you will cooperate with me."

Akizuki Michiyo nodded: "Xiaoci has already mentioned the matter of her dormitory. I will cooperate and tell you everything I know."

Akizuki Michiyo stepped aside to invite the two officers in.

The Western-style decoration exudes warmth and elegance everywhere. Lin Xiaochen and his friend sat down on the bright yellow long sofa and took the tea handed to them by Akizuki Michiyo.

Akizuki Michiyo sat on the sofa beside the two of them, her hands resting naturally on her knees, and said gently: "I'm ready, officers, just ask whatever you want."

"You came to Nagano High School to coach seven years ago. What was your job before that?"

"I was a teacher before, but I was in the flower-growing department. After Xiaoci came here to study, I found a way to become a teacher in order to take care of her," recalled Akizuki Michiyo.

"Then do you still remember Shuiyue Yanxiao and Murakami Qiuyi?"

"I don't quite remember. Was it my former student? If so, I can look for the student roster and maybe I'll have an impression of it."

"There seems to be no trace of a man in the room. Doesn't Mr. Qiuyue live here?" Lin Xiaochen asked after looking around the room.

"He was busy with business and stayed in Hokkaido. Originally, the three of us were going to go there, but Xiaoci couldn't adapt to the climate there and was always sick, so we returned to Nagano. After all, this is my husband's hometown. It's a coincidence that Xiaoci didn't feel so bad after she came back."

"It's really hard for you to take care of Miss Akizuki by yourself." said Uehara Yui.

"Yes, but Xiaoci is very well behaved. With her around, I don't feel tired sometimes." Akizuki Michiyo smiled, her eyes softened by three points, "Now Xiaoci has grown up, and I don't need to worry about anything."

"You and her have a very good relationship."

"What you said is true. Xiaoci is my daughter. If I don't love her, who else should I love?" Akizuki Michiyo couldn't help but smile.

"Do you know how Miss Qiuyue is doing in school?"

"I know." Akizuki Michiyo's smile faded a little, and she let out a long breath. "Xiao Ci is not happy in the dormitory. She told me that her father and I went to school to make a scene once, and only then did we get the qualification to change dormitories. But Xiao Ci was spoiled by me and her father, and she always felt that changing dormitories was troublesome. Plus, those three people did restrain themselves, so we let it go."

"Made a fuss..." Uehara Yui was a little confused. She unconsciously began to pay attention to Akizuki Michiyo's clothes and behavior. She really couldn't imagine that such a dignified and generous person would use the word "noisy" to describe herself. Was it an exaggeration?

"Yes, I did. You don't have to doubt it. I'm not exaggerating." Akizuki Michiyo said, "Xiao Ci has complained to me many times that her roommates' schedules and living habits are not compatible with hers. In addition, their personalities don't match, so she is isolated in the class and is not happy at all. Xiao Ci is a very kind girl and doesn't want to make things too ugly. She has been patient and only complained to me a few times. This semester, she probably can't stand it anymore, so she came to tell me that she hopes I can help her change the dormitory."

"I talked to her counselor first, but he kept trying to cover it up." Akizuki Michiyo's face turned ugly. "The child's father still had the attitude of 'why do you only bully her and not others?' It made me very angry."

"Plus, Xiaoci had been crying for a while, and I couldn't bear to see her alone and helpless, so I went to the school with her father."

"After that, the three of them restrained themselves. Plus, changing dormitories was really troublesome, so Xiaoci said forget it, and so forget it." Akizuki Michiyo said.

Lin Xiaochen's hand speed was extremely fast, and the tip of the pen left a residual shadow: "Does Miss Qiuyue often tell you about school?"

"Yes, she will tell me everything, including what she ate and learned today, whether she is happy or unhappy." Akizuki Michiyo said, "She usually won't hide anything from me."

"Did you ask for this? Or..."

"No, I usually don't bother her. I will only respond if she brings it up." Akizuki Michiyo replied, "I'm not a feudal patriarch who wants to control everything about my child. As long as Xiaoci is willing to talk, I'm always willing to listen."

"What a wonderful mother-daughter relationship. By the way, have you left Nagano recently?"

"No, I have classes, and my daughter is prone to illness, so we usually don't go far away." Akizuki Michiyo said, "We haven't been out for a long time. The last time we went on a long trip was when we came back from Tokyo."

"Tokyo?"

"Yes, Xiaoci was a senior at Beihua High School in Tokyo. At that time, a very good dermatologist came to Beihua Hospital. Xiaoci was treated for allergies there and had to take a certain medicine all the time, so she stayed there."

"Ok."

Suddenly, there was the sound of a key turning at the door, and a questioning tone came from Huankai's voice: "Eh? The door is not locked?"

Then there was the creaking sound of the door opening.

"Mom, I'm back!" Light footsteps were heard, and a red figure floated over and threw herself into Akizuki Michiyo's arms, "Did you miss me?"

"Nene (pronounced in pinyin, 娘楠), there are guests here... Officer Lin and Officer Uehara are over here, why don't you say hello?" The seriousness on Akizuki Michiyo's face had long disappeared without a trace. She tapped the tip of Akizuki Ci's nose with her index finger, and her tone was full of helplessness and pampering, "How rude."

"Hello, Officer Lin! Hello, Officer Uehara." Qiu Yueci's face was filled with a cheerful smile, much more lively than the two officers had imagined. "Officer Lin and Officer Uehara, you have worked hard on the investigation. Would you like to stay for dinner?"

The two smiled and waved.

Qiuyue Ci half-knelt down and hugged Qiuyue Michiyo's arm, leaned her head on her shoulder and said coquettishly: "Mom, what were you talking about just now? Can I know? Did you say anything bad about me?"

"No, no." Akizuki Michiyo touched Akizuki Ci's head with her free hand, "Stand up quickly, what a mess! Mom and the police officer still have something to talk about. Go back to your room and rest first."

"Well, you have to tell me what you talked about later~"

"Okay, go back now."

"Hey, I need to go think about what to eat for dinner."

"Okay, go ahead and think about it slowly."
