The Story of the Migrant Worker from the World of Conan

"Student Wu Ju, it's me, Ye Zi."

"Student Ye Zi?!"

Naoko Takei, who was thinking, was surprised at this time.

leaf……

How did he come?

And how did he know he was here?

"I asked my friend to help me investigate, and I found them from warehouses one by one. I didn't expect you to be in this abandoned factory."

Seeming to know her thoughts, the leaves outside explained to themselves.

I just wanted to see luck.

"Since you are really here, it seems that the one who kidnapped you was indeed that Miss Akiko Hanai."

And that Akiko Hanai was obviously the daughter of the president who was forced into a corner, so she committed suicide with her wife and children.

This time, it was clear that it was for revenge.

Therefore, Naoko Takei cannot be left here.

"Come with me, student Wu Ju, it's time to go home, and leave the rest to the police."

Leaf continued.

I had just walked around the abandoned factory and didn't see anyone else, so I came in so confidently and boldly.

If there is anyone, it is estimated that there will be a fight first.

Of course, you can sneak in, or choose to call the police and let the police deal with the kidnappers.

But neither is needed now.

"Student Wu Ju, dodge a little bit, I'm going to kick this door open..."

"do not want!"

"Eh? Why not?"

"...I'm not leaving, I'm staying here."

"why?"

Leaf was surprised.

But Naoko Takei in the room was just silent and did not answer the question.

After all, domestic ugliness cannot be made public.

Although there is a good chance that the leaves already know that.

To be able to find this place and to know that it was Hanai Akiko who kidnapped her, other things are of course not difficult to investigate.

And it is.

Ye Ye didn't understand her specific thoughts, but she also had some guesses.

He hesitated.

In the end it was not forced.

"Ok."

"Thank you, classmate Ye Ye."

Facing Ye Ye who came to save him and agreed to his unreasonable demands, Naoko Takei was a little moved.

But you have to deal with your own affairs.

"I'll be fine here, you go back first, classmate Ye Zi, wait until..."

"I'm in the next room, please call me if you're in danger."

"……what?"

"I'm a little tired after running all night. I'm going to squint for a while, don't disturb me."

Saying such things.

Then there was a little movement in the next room.

Silence soon returned.

Takeu Naoko's expression was a little dull.

Because I didn't expect that Ye Ye would come to this trick at all.

but.

Very moved.

"Thank you, classmate Ye Ye."

"..."

"thank you very much."

Thanks again.

Then fell silent.

Some things, some words, may not need to be said.

friend……

It's really warm.

perhaps,

More than just friends?

Thinking of that kind of thing made me blush a little.

Sitting on the bed with your legs crossed, staring at the wall.

There are leaves on the other side of the wall.

"Um, classmate Ye Zi, can you listen to me?"

"can."

Leaf's voice came over.

"But I can only listen, but I can't be your life mentor."

"Ah, just listen."

Naoko Takei now, just wants to talk about it.

Because she was just waiting.

Waiting for the end to come.

"My mother passed away very early, and my father is always busy with business..."

Chapter 21: Time is ticking

Naoko Takei was reluctant to leave.

Ye Ye didn't force it, but went directly to the next room to stay.

He wants to protect his classmates.

Like protecting the younger siblings in the orphanage.

Naoko Takei is like a younger sister.

Although in terms of physical age, Naoko Takei is a few years older than him.

But there is also a mental age.

If you add up your past and present lives, you are already middle-aged.

Yet he was still young.

A creature like a man may really be a teenager until he dies.

Naoko Takei's story is simple.

Ye Ye just listened without expressing any opinion.

He is not a life coach.

Naoko Takeu didn't need his opinion either, he simply talked and said it all, and his mood improved a lot.

talking and talking.

Gradually there was no sound.

outside.

It's already dawn.

……

Edogawa Conan.

a detective.

And is a very capable detective.

Because his body is a high school student detective: Kudo Shinichi.

He also participated in the matter of his classmate Naoko Takei, not only to help his classmates, but also for the justice in his heart.

So have been investigating.

Akiko Hanai is the mastermind behind the kidnapping.
