The corners of Hui Yuan Ai's lips twitched slightly, remembering the nonsense that someone said before to visit the lawyer concubine and drop in to see the doctor, his mood suddenly improved a lot.

"The doctor is fine." She simply answered Mao Lilan's question, and felt that Hei Muren was still concerned about the case, so she subconsciously asked him:

"What about you? Is there any progress in the case?"

Speaking of this, Mao Lilan looked dark, but quickly covered it up, and smiled slightly: "Father is still protecting Miss Towako... Oh yes, we speculate that the criminals attacked according to the reverse order of the playing cards..."

Mao Lilan gave a general account of their progress in the afternoon, and Conan added content from time to time, and Kuroki Ren soon got the latest progress of the case.

"That means the next person should be the number ten?"

"Does Mr. Kuroki know anyone?" Conan asked quickly.

"I haven't, but the Māori detective may have someone else."

"???"

"Tsuji Hiroki, golfer, Maori detective often meets him on the course on weekends."

The people present hurriedly thought about how Tsuji Hiroki's name was written, and after a sudden realization, they were deeply puzzled.

It was Conan who asked first: "How do you know the people around Uncle Maori so well?"

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

This is not the first time.

A long time ago, Edogawa Conan discovered that Kuroki Jin seemed to be very dear to the Mori family. The most recent time was in that restaurant, and he directly revealed the familiar relationship between Mori Kogoro and Miss Towako from the nightclub.

And like Hiroki Tsuji, it’s just some relationship between meeting and playing ball on weekends, he can actually think of it at the first time.

"It's very easy to gather people with names with numbers around Mr. Mori." Hitoshi Kuroki avoided Conan's question and didn't answer, "He has a five in his own name, the name of Mr. Sawaki who just met on the weekend. There is eight in the middle, and one in the name of Kudo-san."

"Mr. Kuroki has two in his name, just now Police Officer Shiratori said that he has three in his name... It seems that the number is almost the same."

Shiratori counted the people just mentioned again in his mind, and then called police officer Megure, telling them that besides Ms. Towako, there was a candidate with the number ten and a bunch of numbers in line.

At this time, the car was almost at the Maori Detective Agency.

"Then Conan-kun and I will get off first." Mao Lilan leaned over to say hello gently, and did not forget to thank Officer Shiratori for seeing him off.

Conan stared at Hui Yuanai, who was sitting in the back row with his eyes closed and rested, without saying a word, and got out of the car with Xiaolan.

He felt that Xiaolan was still thinking about what happened that year, and her mood was not as optimistic as she showed.

The car door was closed, Hui Yuanai opened his eyes from the state of feigning death, and said almost in unison with Kuroki Ren: "Go to Tsuji Hiroki."

Shiratori was taken aback by the simultaneous reaction of the two, and then opened his mouth to refuse.

"The candidate is what I thought of. Officer Shiratori probably won't abandon me." Hei Muren blocked his mouth, and the next second Hui Yuan said sadly: "That person hurt the doctor. I only need to go home now." Can you live alone, can you rest assured?"

Shiratori really wanted to say, don't worry, it's not the first time we've met, plus Conan who just got off the car, you two can't be treated as ordinary children at all, okay?

Shiratori would never forget that when he was knocked out by the bomb, there was a lot of screaming around him, only the scene where the seven-year-old girl squatted beside him calmly to diagnose him.

But he just smiled naively, and the car turned around directly after passing the intersection in front of it.

Conan, who was comforting Xiaolan in the office, moved his ears and heard the voice from the bug.

Shiratori received Megure's order to rush to Tsuji Hiroki's house immediately, and he was also calling Tsuji Hiroki to tell him that someone wanted to kill him.

It's a pity that Hiroki Tsuji's phone was not connected. Only after calling his assistant did he find out that there was a helicopter takeoff early tomorrow morning. In order to ensure sleep, Hiroki Tsuji should have slept early and turned off his phone.

As a professional baseball player, his address will not be leaked out. Even if the opposite is the police, the assistant will just send him away with a few words.In desperation, Megure had no choice but to call Shiratori, asking them to gather at the take-off point of the plane early in the morning, and try to organize Hiroki Tsuji for dangerous behavior.

Hearing this news, Hei Muren sighed in disappointment, watched Shiratori drive back to take the two of them home, and said sullenly: "I'll get off at the doctor's house together, let's walk later." ..."

"That's just right. I was worried that Haihara-san said that she would be scared if she lived alone. It would be great if Mr. Kuroki could stay at Dr. Ali's house for one night."

Hei Muren: "???"

Haibara Ai:"!!!"

"What did Mr. Kuroki say next? I didn't hear it." Shiratori asked cheerfully.

Hei Muren: "..."

"It's nothing." He turned his head aside and looked out the car window, "I mean what you said."

At night, two people, one big and one small, silently watched Shiratori's taillights disappear into the night. With a cool breeze, they looked up at the dark mansion of the doctor's house.

"Turn off Conan's bug." Kuroki Ren said.

"Oh." Haibara Ai pressed a small object casually, and Kuroki Ren could imagine Conan jumping angrily in other places just by thinking about it.

"Then... if it's inconvenient for you, I can walk home." Hei Muren was a little embarrassed, he wanted to stretch out his hand and scratch his head, but halfway through it, he felt that it was too obvious, so he stretched out his raised hand lazy.

Haibara Ai:"……"

She took a deep breath, let it out again, and said in Hei Muren's voice that sounded like she was gnashing her teeth, "I'm hungry!"

"Ah? Oh." Hei Muren blinked, followed Hui Yuanai's footsteps into the door of the doctor's house.

He was a bit dumbfounded, but he wasn't stupid. He had hinted so clearly, if he pretended to be stupid again, it would really be unreasonable.

So he rolled up his sleeves very diligently, went straight to the kitchen to wash his hands, then stood at the kitchen door shaking his wet hands and asked, "What do you eat?"

Hui Yuan Ai, who was not really hungry at first, heard that he was really a little hungry, the kind of hunger that wants to eat human flesh.

She was silent for two seconds, raised her head and smiled slightly: "Noodles are fine."

With the instinct of a small animal, Kuroki Ren felt that there was something dangerous behind this smile.

His action was one step faster than his mind, he turned around and went to the kitchen to work on the noodles, and he didn't hear Hui Yuanai's deep but soft sigh in the living room.

After two bowls of hot noodles, the two of them who had been worried all day couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief, and sat face to face on the sofa, not wanting to move.

It was Kuroki Ren who asked lazily first: "Did you go there with Elder Sister Airi again in the past two days?"

He didn't say that in detail, but Hui Yuan Ai knew what he was referring to.

"No, that day has passed." Hui Yuanai shook his head, then took out his phone from his pocket, "I forgot to send a message to my sister saying I'm home."

Hei Muren looked at Hui Yuan Ai who was bowing his head and typing quickly, and couldn't help but hook his lips.

"Aren't you curious?" He suddenly asked, "Why Miss Mingmei can only stay there and not come out."

Hui Yuanai raised his head in the middle of typing, and glanced at Hei Muren like a fool.

"There are people from the organization everywhere outside, and the chances of my sister being discovered are too great."

"...That's true." Hei Muren rubbed his nose, not knowing how to proceed with the topic.

After sending a piece of news, Hui Yuan was so sad that he took a look at the idle and boring Hei Muren, "I haven't asked, why did you save my sister?"

"Huh?" Hei Muren regained consciousness in a daze, quickly ran through the question in his head, and then replied: "There is no reason, it's just a matter of convenience."

"It's not easy." Hui Yuanai said softly, "Switching the ambulance, arranging to replace the corpse, finding a forensic doctor to get away with it, and finding such a large but unostentatious place to house my sister, no matter how you think about it, it can't be done easily."

Hei Muren: "..."

You may not believe it, but he only changed an ambulance in the above.

You can tell from Miyano Akemi's attitude when the two sisters met that night, the other party still doesn't want Hui Yuan Ai to know her secret, so as the one who knows the secret, he can only keep his mouth shut, otherwise he will definitely beg for love from both sides. less than good.

If Miyano Akemi's secret is revealed hastily, even if the target is her own sister, then Kuroki Ren's reputation will be compromised by her, this is one of them.

The second is, if the little guy who asked the question in front of him learned the truth from him, he might turn around and go to a showdown with his sister, and then find out that it was he, Kurokiren, who leaked the secret of his sister on his own initiative. The strength will be even greater.

Hei Muren figured out the pros and cons in just a moment, he opened his mouth with a perfect smile, but he couldn't say a lie.

Regardless of the pros and cons, Hei Muren found that he did not want to deceive Hui Yuan Ai.

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

Hei Muren's mouth has deceived many people.

He lied to Gin, saying that Rye didn't have any problems during the mission, even if he met Rye's sister in the middle of that mission, and was set in an ambush by Rye afterwards and escaped death.

He also said that Bourbon had only come back to check the lost site of the intelligence department, although he was like Der Spiegel in his heart, knowing that the smuggling route was exposed that time was a good thing Bourbon did.

He also used his unsophisticated acting skills to deceive Belmode, making her promise not to take action against Shirley again out of guilt.

He even lied to himself, or in other words, he has been lying to himself in his heart.

People like life to be full of hope, and they always think from an optimistic perspective when thinking about things.But Hei Muren would not, he would always make the worst plan and face the choice with a pessimistic attitude, and when he found out afterwards that things were not the worst, he would feel content.

Even if the result is not good.

Hei Muren didn't know what to say for a while, Hui Yuanai lowered his head to send a message after replying, and after the message was sent, he raised his head in doubt to look at Hei Muren who didn't reply.

Hei Muren smiled awkwardly, thought carefully, and replied seriously: "At first, it was because someone asked me to save Miss Mingmei."

"Huh?" Hui Yuanai was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously asked, "Who is it?"

"An acquaintance of your parents... Anyway, I heard him explain it this way, and I didn't ask about it in detail."

Kuroki Jin was talking about Bourbon, and it was indeed Bourbon who first asked him to find a way to save Miyano Akemi.

Hui Yuanai thought about it silently, acquaintances of her parents... To be honest, she has never met... Eh?Yeah, why hasn't she met her parents' acquaintances?

Hui Yuanai fell into doubts. Logically speaking, it shouldn't be. She can often hear the names of her parents in the organization research institute. Although she has not joined the organization for a long time, if she has such a great reputation, how can she not have old memories?

She also thought of the Pisco who claimed to have hugged her when she was a child at the Cupido Hotel...of course not the current Pisco, but the old man named Kenzo Masuyama who appeared to be a car king.

And... that memory that seems to be a dream but also seems to be real.

"Heimu," Huiyuan wailed his name, "Do you know how many people in the organization have old friends with my parents?"

"Huh? I seldom ask about things at the research institute..."

"That's it..." Hui Yuanai didn't doubt that he was there, and after thinking about it, Kuroki Ren didn't have any special reason to pay attention to the research institute.

"No matter what, it is a fact that you saved my sister." Hui Yuanai quickly let go of his doubts, "Although there may be other twists and turns in the process...don't keep looking away, even if you have a guilty conscience, you have to pretend to be normal!"

Kuroki Ren: "Cough..."

"But I still have to thank you. At least I know that if it weren't for you, my sister would have no hope of surviving."

This is true. Miyano Akemi's original plan was to use her own death in exchange for her younger sister's free life. It was Kuroki Ren who intervened to make her realize that there was a possibility of escape.
