Conan: Goodbye, Brewery, I'm running away

Chapter 285 The Darkness Before Dawn 14

Shuichi Akai noticed her slightly frowning expression and his eyes drifted away slightly, but he did not move closer to her for fear of being bothered by the smell of smoke on his body.

After hearing what Akikawa Sarana said, he knew that the person in front of him had no patience with him, so he did not beat around the bush like he usually did when communicating with other people, but directly stated his purpose.

"Amei... is she still alive? Miss Akikawa, you must have saved her."

Although he directly stated his purpose, there was still some hesitation in his emotions when he spoke, which was really rare for a man like Shuichi Akai who was always decisive in doing things.

Similarly, Akikawa Sarana also noticed that he rubbed his hands unconsciously at his sides.

Akikawa Sarina, who had originally expected that he might ask this question, did not show any change in her expression, and of course she did not answer Akai Shuichi's question.

It didn't matter whether she answered this question or not. Although the man in front of her seemed hesitant and unsure, the fact that he asked this question meant that he already had some evidence.

Shuichi Akai looked at the silent Akikawa Sarina. To be honest, he didn't know Miss Akikawa very well.

He knew that the person being investigated was Li Mu, but after some time of verification, it was basically proven that the Li Mu he had investigated and understood before was not the real her, but the person that Li Mu wanted others to think she was.

After counting all the way, he found that only the few words he had heard from Mingmei before and his observations in recent times were the true character of Miss Akikawa.

"Since the first time I saw her, Huiyuan had always been terrified and hopeless. But one day, she suddenly began to change. Even though she was trying her best to hide her changes, a person's eyes can't lie. She began to have hope for life in her eyes."

He was happy to see this change, but after noticing it, he began to wonder what was going on.

"I thought a lot. I guessed that she had regained her spirits. I also wondered if she saw that we were slowly making new progress in our actions against the organization. I also wondered if it was because of you, as her sister's best friend, that your appearance brought her new support..."

Akikawa Sarana, who originally wanted to ask Akai Shuichi if he had any other questions, did not interrupt his speculation and listened to this man's analysis in silence.

Shuichi Akai didn't know why he said this. This was not his usual character, but at this moment he suddenly wanted to tell Akikawa Sarina about the analysis process.

He smiled bitterly in his heart. He must still be worried that his speculation was wrong.

Although his mind was full of thoughts, his face did not change. He just continued with his analysis, "However, I have ruled out all these. After ruling them out, I can only think of one thing...

Although it is unlikely, there is room for manipulation. The result is very obvious. Mingmei is not dead. You saved her. After you met the child, you told her the news, so she regained her spirits. "

Seeing that he had stopped and had no intention of continuing, Akikawa Sarana looked up at him, "So? What do you want to do?"

Seeing that she did not refute, Akai Shuichi suddenly relaxed and fell into silence.

He didn't say anything, but Akikawa Sarana probably understood what he was struggling with.

Akikawa Sarina, who had already decided not to embarrass him, continued, "Since you don't want to do anything, I'll give you a suggestion, let go of the past between you and Mingmei, and pretend that nothing happened.

Anyway, you only wanted to use Mingmei to join the organization in the beginning. Under this premise, even if you two really developed feelings for each other later, it can't be considered pure love."

Hearing her say this, Akai Shuichi, who had been smiling at Subaru Okiya, opened his eyes. He looked at Akikawa Sarana steadily, "Is this what Ms. Akikawa meant or what Akemi meant?"

"We both thought so."

Regarding this issue, Akikawa Sarina and Miyano Akemi had a brief communication. "In Akemi's heart, her current goal is to live well with her sister. She doesn't want to consider anything else for the time being. As for me..."

Akikawa Sarina raised the corners of her lips in a smile that made Akai Shuichi feel a chill down his spine, and he was also very familiar with this tone of voice, because it was the same tone that Li Mu used on the phone when he was trying to trick him.

"As for the reason, I suggest you go meet your mother and ask her if she has any other relatives or friends. After you ask her, you should understand what I mean."

Shuichi Akai was not aware of the blood relationship, and Akikawa Sarina could see the emotion in his eyes.

So she put away her original sharp approach and let him ask the questions himself.

No matter when and how he started to have feelings for Mingmei, and no matter whether his feelings were more about love or some other emotion.

In short, excluding the initial exploitation, in this relationship where the former lovers were cousins, Shuichi Akai can also be considered a victim.

After hearing what Akikawa Sarina said, Akai Shuichi no longer felt a chill down his spine just because he was worried that Limu might suddenly attack him, but he suddenly felt a sense of fear.

What does it mean to ask your mother if she has other relatives or friends? Shuichi Akai suddenly felt that sometimes being too smart is not a good thing. He felt that he seemed to have guessed what Akikawa Sarina meant.

Noticing his suddenly contracted pupils, Akikawa Sarana's emotions did not fluctuate much. "By the way, when you are talking to your mother, please convey a message to me as well."

"What?" Akai Shuichi was a man with very strong mental qualities. In just a few breaths, he had sorted out his mood.

Thinking about the email she received, although Akikawa Sarana was grateful that she had known some hidden facts, she also disliked this kind of blackmail.

"Please tell her that if she has any problem, she can come to me directly. There is no need to use those methods that seem like temptations but are actually blackmailing me. Her probing behavior will only add a lot of unnecessary procedures and waste everyone's time and energy."
