It's Too Hard for Conan to Follow Me by the Boss's Side

She didn't know when Goto Hirakawa left, she only knew that the future she feared, like a nightmare, was approaching her step by step.

Didn't you already know that?In the quagmire of organization, every step you take, you will fall into a deeper darkness.

Shirley raised the corners of her mouth mockingly, and being separated from her sister whom she hadn't seen for a long time could quickly adjust her mood to face her dark life. At this time, she felt her eyes keep getting hot, and something was facing out from the gap between her fingers. surging.

People come and go at the institute, but no one walks through this corridor anymore.

In the afternoon, Kuroki Jin, who returned to the candy house, thoughtfully brought a low-sugar donut to Anayuki, and kept Wenren's normal portion in the refrigerator.

Looking at the mead that was quite satisfactory, Kuro Muren couldn't help but spit out: "It's obviously a doughnut that has to be unsweetened. It's really embarrassing for the store."

"What did you say?" Anaisuki asked vaguely.

"No." Hei Muren shook his head politely and smiled kindly, "I'm afraid that you will choke, so I want to eat slowly."

Anayuki put the last mouthful into her mouth, clapped her hands contentedly, and smiled:

"Should people who don't go to work for a day and a half take the initiative to take the responsibility of cleaning and preparing for the evening business?"

"Okay." Hei Muren agreed happily, and hurried to the small kitchen to replenish the ingredients consumed at noon.

First, Didan Elementary School was dismissed, and Kuroki Ren and Anaiyuki were still busy. Then, when the Didan National Middle School was dismissed, the number of people in line gradually began to increase. Fortunately, Wenren came over to help quickly and kept going. When I got to Didan High School, it was about time to get out of school, so I had a little time to breathe.

"As soon as Brother Heimu comes back, the traffic has obviously increased." Ruomu Wenren took a small mouthful of honey water, which was specially adjusted for him by Anaisuki just now.

"Take a few minutes to rest and have something to eat." Heimu Ren heated the donut and handed it to Wenren.

"Thank you, Brother Heimu." Wen Ren who didn't have time to eat dinner took it with a smile, swallowed one in three or two mouthfuls, and gave a thumbs up.

Hei Muren fondly rubbed Wenren's hair, which was soaked in sweat from being busy, and said gently: "Wait a while and then I'll check your English."

Ruomu Wenren's face collapsed immediately, with no words written all over his face.

"Hurry up, it's about time."

Chapter 64 Stupid Kuroki finally realizes what he forgot

As Kuroki had expected, Sonoko, Xiaolan, and Kudo were among the last big wave of guests.There was no space in the store, so they simply stood aside, patiently waiting for Kuro Muren to finish his work, while helping to load some candies from time to time, like temporary workers in the store.

For this, Kuroki can only politely express gratitude and often give them some small candies and the like.

When there were not so many customers, the carefree Yuanzi started pulling Kuroki Ren to ask why he didn't come to the store yesterday and this morning.

"A friend came back yesterday, and I picked him up." Heimu Ren casually lied about Bourbon, his face was not blushing and he was out of breath.

"Eh? Are Mr. Kuroki Jin's friends as handsome as you?"

"Yuanzi~" Xiaolan scolded her best friend with her finger, reminding her to be careful.

"Haha." Kuroki Ren smiled and waved his hand to indicate that it was okay, "Thanks for the compliment, but that friend of mine is much more handsome than me."

"Really?" Sonoko's eyes suddenly lit up, and he rushed forward to hold Kuroki Jin's hand in three or two steps, "Does Mr. Kuroki's friend have time? Can I date him?!"

Hei Muren: "..."

"Sonoko!" Xiaolan quickly pulled back her best friend who escaped, and bowed to Heimu Ren embarrassedly, "I'm really sorry Mr. Kuroki, Sonoko has no other intentions."

"It's okay." Kuroki Jin didn't care, "It's just that he may be busy recently and can't find time for a date." This is not an excuse, but a fact.

Kuroki Jin turned to look at Kudo Shinichi again, "But my friend and Kudo may be able to chat with you, maybe he is also a detective."

This time, Kudo's eyes lit up.

Being held by a beautiful girl, Kuroki Jin did not reject it, but he didn't want to be held hands by the same-sex excitement, so he quickly said before Kudo rushed over: "I'll bring him to my candy shop when he's done with his work. , when the time comes, I will introduce you to each other."

Just as Bourbon was transferred back to Tokyo, the identity of this little detective on the bright side can also play a role in covering up the high school detectives in Kanto.

As for whether it will be revealed by Kudo Shin's identity?

Hei Muren said that it was overthinking.If Bourbon was really such a dish, it would have been killed by gin a few years ago.

While chatting with them, Kuroki Ren cleaned up the hygiene, and Anayuki carried Wenren Ruoki to the back to do homework.Wenren's nostalgic eyes passed over Kudo Shinichi.

Kudo was suppressed by Kuroki and Xiaolan in partnership, and I'm afraid he won't be able to enter the back kitchen until Wenren finishes his homework.

Regarding everyone guarding themselves together, Kudo Shinichi said that they were really making a fuss.Kudo and Wen Ren, who exchanged contact information, can chat anytime they want. Through his counseling to Wen Ren, the latter can almost solve some small cases.

The entrance exam is coming in December, and Kudo has already planned to take Wenren with him in various cases after the exam is over, so that he can get training in actual combat.

Since Xiaolan had to go back to prepare dinner for her father, the trio didn't stay here for a long time. They left before Hei Muren finished cleaning up. Before leaving, Hei Muren asked them to take whatever they wanted. Go back and eat some candy.

There were not many guests in the evening, and Hei Muren really tested and taught Wen Ren's English homework.For intelligence officers, mastering foreign languages ​​is a basic literacy. Even if they don't recognize them, they need to be able to speak and listen, which is also convenient for collecting information.

Fortunately, Wenren is a bit talented in this regard. His current level of English is capable of conversing with people from non-English-speaking countries. As for locals in the United Kingdom or the United States, usually no one can understand the dialect. .

When he was idle, Kuro Muren replenished the candy reserve, and thought that he should not have released a new candy style for a long time. It is time to develop it before the arrival of December, which happens to be on the shelves in the new January.

Thinking of research and development, Kuro Muren paused, and he finally remembered what he had forgotten.

"Xuji, look at the shop!"

Hei Muren's complexion changed slightly. He took off his apron while reaching for his jacket. Before going out, he paused and quickly picked up a few good-looking candies from the counter and put them in his pocket.

"Hey, you just came back to work—!"

Anaisuki's voice chased Kuroki Ren's figure out, but Kuroki got in the car a long time ago and rode the dust.Only Yuuki and Wenren, who stuck their heads out to watch the excitement, looked at each other.

Hei Muren just remembered that the drug Shirley developed was used by gin. He forgot to remind Shirley about it before. If she was excited and rushed to find the theory of gin, it would be troublesome.

Heimuren didn't answer Shirley's call, which made him believe his own thoughts even more.

R018 is still a certain distance away from Kuroki Ren's candy house. After thinking about it, Kuroki gave Gin a phone call to test his mood.

Jinjiu is in a bad mood - this is already the third call that Kuroki Ren called him today, how much does he need to ask him for instructions?

But he had to pick it up, after all... what if?

Hei Muren noticed something was wrong from the "Hello" when Jin Jiu answered the phone. Due to the distraction of driving, he didn't make up nonsense for a while, and asked a short-circuit in his head:

"Have you eaten, have you eaten?"

Gin: "..."

"Come to the combat training ground of the Supervision Department!"

The phone was hung up with a "bang", and Kuro Muren slammed on the brakes, buried his head on the steering wheel, and fell into deep annoyance.

It is impossible to go to the inspection department, and it is impossible to go in this life!Kuro Muren started the vehicle and continued to move towards R018. He just bought a bottle of whisky while passing by the convenience store, and deliberately avoided the three types of rye, scotch and bourbon.

The reason for avoiding the first two is because they are all undercover agents of the organization, and when Jin Jiu sees them, he will remember what happened before, and his mood will only get worse.The reason for not choosing bourbon is that the relationship between the two is not very good. Gin mentioned bourbon before easily reminding him of Belmod, the same annoying mysticism.

That's right, the reason for buying the wine is that Heimu Ren is too straight and intends to go straight to the gin after going to Shirley's place, and try this bottle of wine before the fighting arena to see if he can avoid the beating.

Heimuren parked the car where he parked last time, got out of the car and went straight to the top floor of the elevator. As soon as the elevator door opened, he could feel the depression in this layer of air.

"That," Hei Muren stopped a passing researcher, "Where is your team leader?"

"The team leader is in the laboratory." The male researcher stopped hastily, "May I ask who you are...?"

"I'm here to find her." Hei Muren did not report his code name, "Can you show me the way?"

"It happens that I'm going to the team leader to report the data, come with me." The male researcher pushed his glasses and changed the data sheet in his hand to hold it, "My name is Goto Hirakawa, and I belong to the team leader. Deputy, you can call me Gotou."

Hei Muren nodded. He put his hand in his coat pocket and clenched the candy he brought.

Chapter 65 She is no longer a child

Along the way, Goto Hirakawa didn't try to talk to Kuroki again. Although he had never met or knew Kuroki, the only way to get to the top floor was to swipe the organization ID card, which was still relatively advanced. Only members can come up directly without reporting.

Goto didn't even have the idea of ​​getting involved. A researcher like them might stay in this research institute for the rest of their lives, and they couldn't ask for outsiders to transfer personnel. He might as well have a good relationship with Kuroki Ren. Let's get two more data out to please Team Leader Shirley.

Goto took Kuroki Jin straight to the ground. After exiting the elevator, he turned right and the second room was the laboratory. Goto politely knocked on the door and pushed it open.

"Team leader, the data you want."

"Let's put it there." Xue Li didn't look back at all, her hands kept moving and she looked very busy.

"One more thing, team leader." Goto put down the data sheet, "Someone is looking for you."

"not see."

Kuroki Jin, who was standing at the door, changed his expression.

Goto glanced at Kuroki Jin awkwardly, and then whispered, "He's already here."

"Who..." Xue Li looked back impatiently, frowned slightly when she saw it was Heimu Ren, and turned her head to face the experimental bench. "I'm busy, if there's nothing important..."

"Something." Heimu Ren interrupted her, and then his eyes signaled Gotou to go out, while he came in and closed the door by the way.

The room suddenly became quiet. Hei Muren in black stood very conspicuous in the snow-white space, but his eyes were only on Xue Li, who was wearing a white coat as if integrated with the space.

Shirley just turned her back to him, and the quiet atmosphere in the room also showed that she wasn't actually doing anything, she just didn't want to turn around for some reason.

"That, I just suddenly remembered..." Heimu Ren tried his best to smile, even though Xue Li, who had her back to him, couldn't see it.He walked slowly towards Shirley, who was standing in the center, and before he took two steps, he saw her gradually stiffening body.

Hei Muren reluctantly turned a corner, went to the sink next to him, took a bottle of mineral water, unscrewed it, and put it on the corner of the workbench facing Shirley.

"I heard your voice a little hoarse just now, drink some water."

Xue Li didn't move, and after a while, she said, "You're not too busy to come here and screw a bottle cap for me."

Hei Muren didn't care about the tone of her speech at all, and said with a constant smile: "I brought two pieces of candy from home, maybe you like it." Then he took out the candy in his pocket.

Colorful candies were lying on Kuroki Jin's palm, and Shirley half turned her head to look at the candies. She was thinking that children would definitely like them.

Too bad she is no longer a child.

"I don't eat sweets."

Hei Muren's eyes were dim, and the hand that was originally raised gradually curled up and down. After thinking about it, he still didn't take the sugar away, but placed it next to the mineral water.

"I think you haven't eaten since you came back. It's good to add some sugar." He tried hard to find it.

"Well, thank you." Shirley said lightly.

Hei Muren felt that her thank you was a lot more distant than in the afternoon.

He didn't like this kind of estrangement, so he seemed to be defending but didn't know why he was defending and said: "I forgot to tell you something when we parted in the afternoon." Heimu Ren paused, "That"

"I already know."
