Crime

The blind tone of hanging up came from the receiver, Kaito lowered his eyes, put down the phone after a while, turned and sat back on the sofa.

Gakupo raised his eyes to look at him, his eyes were piercing as if he was examining a stranger: "When did you know?" Knowing that nothing happened to Miku, and even, knowing more.

Kaito leaned back on the sofa: "From the beginning, I never believed it."

The two sat silently until Kaito suddenly took out his mobile phone and put it on the table: "When she said that she would leave the number to me that day, I already felt that something was wrong. I don't know what she is on this What did you do to make my every move under her watch, or—”

Kaito looked up at him suddenly: "You did the same thing to me, didn't you?"

He was completely different from him who was absent-minded and helpless a few days ago, and he was even calmer than ever before. What was even more surprising was that he actually directly said the things he had avoided the most.

"So?" Gakupo remained calm, but asked in a deep voice, "What about you after that? You lost your mind and snapped at each other that night, and finally despaired?"

"It's all fake," Kaito lowered his head and smiled wryly, "it's all fake."

Gakupo listened, but his character didn't allow him to show his surprise.He remembered what Miku said—yes, maybe what he always thought was wrong.

He looked at Kaito without changing his expression. He didn't realize many details that were wrong until now - even he himself wasn't sure if something happened to Miku at the time, why was his brother so sure that his sister was dead?If he really decided to leave at that time, why did he put the ticket in the most conspicuous place?

"So when you made it clear that you would never go to England that day, she then revealed that Miku had an accident?" Gakupo said, "Is she forcing you to go there?"

He easily thought of this point, since Kaito valued this sister so much, but still suppressed his emotions and did not act after she disappeared for five days, it was probably because he had long been sure that something would happen to Miku.

If Sapphire's original intention was to meet him, after knowing that he was determined not to go, she would definitely use all means to achieve her goal.

"As long as I arrive in the UK, no matter what means are used, even house arrest, she will always find a way to keep me by her side," Kaito turned his head and looked out the window, "so I can't go."

And at that moment, Gakupo was the only one who could stop him.

Venting resentment at others for no reason, blurting out those radical and unreasonable words just to irritate himself - Gakupo remembered asking him why he couldn't see the truth clearly, but he was the one who saw the most clearly.

"I have to have an accident, and I have to let her watch me have an accident," Kaito said. "She is my mother after all. As long as she panics, everything will be easy."

When Kaito said this, there was no expression on his face, as if he was talking about someone else's business. Gakupo looked at him, trying to see even a trace of sadness in his eyes, but he realized it and turned sideways.

After all, it was really embarrassing for him to reveal the fact that he was playing tricks with his biological mother.

"I didn't expect that I really don't know much about you," Gakupo smiled, "Yes, you are really as smart as your mother, so smart that it is frightening."

"The one who really scares me is you!" Kaito suddenly turned his head to look at him.

Kaito, who had been calm all this time, suddenly raised his voice and uttered these words, which made both of them fall silent for a moment.

Kaito opened his mouth, he realized his gaffe just now, so he lowered his head helplessly: "Yes, I told a big lie, and let you see me so pretentious, so that night, I went to you."

He raised his head to look at Gakupo, and suddenly smiled bleakly: "I used to think that I lied to the person I shouldn't have lied to."

That night, the man said in the most indifferent tone——

"It's just for fun."

"I once said that I don't care how miserable and despicable I am in your eyes, but then a lot of things happened," Kaito lowered his eyes, "I can't stop caring."

Gakupo was silent for a while, and then said: "You are really different from before."

"I can't stay the same," Kaito looked up at him, with a faint light in his eyes, "How old was I when you met me? 19 years old, or?"

He bites those last words hard, trying to make Gakupo realize what he's done to himself back then.

Gakupo didn't answer, just never looked away from him.

"Seven years, seven years," Kaito closed his eyes and smiled, "I'm still your plaything."

Gakupo looked at him and finally said, "You hate me?"

"If it was a time when I still depended on you," Kaito replied lightly, "I won't hate you anymore, and I won't hate you any more in the future."

This is exactly what he once said, when there is no emotion, there is no resentment.

"For so many years, I have no way not to be afraid of you without any emotion," Kaito stood up, "It's just that I was ignorant at the time and couldn't see the facts clearly."

Kaito picked up his jacket and walked past Gakupo, but was suddenly grabbed by the other party——

"you come back."

"Let go." Kaito didn't turn his head, just turned his back to him, "I should go."

The hand that had been grasped countless times finally broke free from his grasp this time.
