Crime

Two hours ago, the never-night city outside the window was brightly lit.

"Do you know," he said, "Actually, from the very beginning, I never counted on the path of financing."

Feeling that the other party was not as surprised as imagined, Gakupo opened his eyes and looked at him: "What? Did you already know?"

"I don't know," Kaito replied, "but I trust you."

"Aren't you afraid that I'll hide it from you this time?" Gakupo raised his hand and grabbed his hand.

"The only thing that's disturbing is being lied to," Kaito said softly, "but between you and me there can—and should be—secrets."

Gakupo smiled, grabbed his hand and put it to his lips and kissed lightly: "Really, having you here really reassures me."

Just as he finished speaking, he suddenly lowered his voice: "However, I should get serious about this Game of Thrones."

"Are you going abroad?" Kaito raised his head.

"I didn't think it was necessary, but since Charles has pushed to this point, I can't slack off anymore," Gakupo said, "There are not many people who can use it in this area, so I can only go to change it in person. Be safe."

Having said that, Gakupo turned his head to look at him, and suddenly said: "Actually, there are reasons why Gumi went to university in the UK, and I supported your sister to go to the UK too."

Kaito looked at him, but didn't ask a word.

"When the time comes, I will definitely tell you everything." Gakupo turned around and crossed his fingers on the table. "If I don't have to, I don't want to disturb his peace anymore."

Kaito doesn't know who the "he" Gakupo is talking about, but he has a vague feeling that everything that has happened so far—even before that, is probably inextricably linked with this "he".

Kaito took a shallow breath and asked, "When are you leaving?"

"Tomorrow night, if everything goes well, you'll be back within three days," Gakupo said, "But these few days, you will be alone."

"What else can happen to me?" Kaito smiled, "Tomorrow night...that's just right, I can still send you off."

"You, you are really generous." Gakupo also smiled, and stretched out his hand to pull Kaito to his side. "It doesn't matter if you are late? Stay with me for a while."

Two hours later, the night was already deep and thorough.

Kaito was just stunned for a moment, but after he calmed down for a moment, he smelled a faint scent of perfume. When he lowered his eyes slightly and saw that it was a girl's hand holding his wrist, he had a rough idea.

You two really deserve to be siblings. Kaito thought, until the people behind him let go, and then smiled: "Have you played enough?"

"Your reaction is not funny at all," Gumi stepped back and leaned against the banister, "Do you come back so late every day?"

"I don't want to either." Kaito smiled and turned to look at the window.

"Don't open the curtains," Gumi saw his thoughts, "Be careful."

Kaito understood what she meant and just asked, "Why are you here so late... Ah, wait, how did you get in here?"

"How else can I get in?" Gumi shook the key in his hand, "Your sister gave it to me—but I think my brother should also have the key. It's not easy to get in?"

Kaito smiled: "Okay, okay, what's the matter with you coming so late?"

"It's nothing serious, it's just that Miku asked me to send her things over there, so I came here to look for them." Gumi said, pointing to Miku's room over there.

"If she really has something to do, why don't she come to me and bother you?" Kaito looked at her with a smile.

"Ah, even if you are her brother, you are still a man," Gumi said jokingly, "It's a little girl's stuff, she's too embarrassed to look for you."

Of course Kaito knew that she was just talking casually, and after casually chatting about something else, he asked: "Come back this time, do you plan to go back again?"

"England?" Gumi thought for a moment, "As I said, if I decide to continue studying for a degree, I still want to go back, but right now—you've seen it."

With that said, Gumi looked up at him: "My brother already told you that he's going back, right?"

Kaito nodded: "But I don't know more about it."

"Since he didn't tell you, it's inconvenient for me to say anything more," Gumi smiled, and then withdrew his smile and looked towards the window. "In short, we can't let those people get too complacent."

"I just remembered when you said that, what did you do a few days ago? It's the first time I saw your brother in such a hurry." Kaito asked.

"He, he always treats me like an ignorant child," Gumi smiled, "However, I really found something."

Speaking of this, Gumi straightened up on the railing suddenly, looked up and looked around, and then looked at Kaito with a serious face, making him realize that what she was going to say was definitely not a trivial matter.

"Do you remember that I read the financial statements in the company?" Gumi said, "Although the major is management, I have not been in the company for so many years, and it is difficult to see what is wrong with this statement."

Kaito watched her, waiting for her next words.

"However, I told you that I still know a little about computers, right? Although it's just a hobby," Gumi said, "Actually, it was just a program I made with a few friends. It took a lot of effort and was a bit risky, but in the end Still a success."

Gumi said, suddenly smiled: "Guess what I found in that old fox's computer?"

The two stared at each other silently for a long time, until Gumi spoke again, uttering those words very clearly——

"Second financial statement."

"Charles just wants to be monopolistic," Kaito said, "but he is still the chairman after all, as long as he can explain clearly where the funds are going, I'm afraid it's still..."

"Chairman?" Gumi sneered, "No one told you, right? Although Charles can be said to be an independent party on the board of directors, his actual shareholding is less than 40.00% five."

Is this the crux of the matter?But who owns that part of the shares? Kaito froze for a moment.

"It's very risky to take short shares. Seeing what my brother means, I'm afraid he's going to make a complete settlement this time." Gumi turned to look at the window, "Funds? Explain clearly? Charles is just throwing himself into Send it to prison."

Kaito looked at her and finally said, "You still have concerns?"

Gumi was silent for a while, then smiled helplessly: "Yes, you actually saw it."

"There is no evidence, and this data was not obtained by legitimate means, so it is impossible to show it," Gumi continued, "But if this matter is not resolved, even if my brother succeeds, I am afraid that the company will not have a stable foundation in the future."

Kaito's face became serious, and he was about to speak when he suddenly heard the sound of a mobile phone call.

"Your phone?" Kaito looked up at Gumi.

"Yes, actually I sneaked out today," Gumi smiled, "I guess my brother is looking for me."

"Wait a minute, I'll take you back," Kaito called to Gumi who was about to go downstairs, "It's already early morning, it's too dangerous for you to go back by yourself as a girl."

"Don't come here, if you send me away, if some entertainment reporter finds out and exposes me, I will be in real danger," Gumi said with a smile and ran downstairs, then looked up at him again, "Ah, that's right."

"Huh? What's the matter?" Kaito lay on the railing and looked at her.

"Don't you feel too lonely living alone?" Gumi raised her head, "Don't you think about going to my brother's place?"

Kaito lowered his head and laughed, and it took him a long time to reply: "Don't worry about the little girl's family."

Gumi also laughed, and the clear laughter gradually faded away with her leaving figure.

"What are you thinking?" Gakupo's voice finally pulled him back from his thoughts.

"Ah? I didn't think about anything." Kaito came back to his senses and looked up at the electronic screen in the waiting hall.

"You still want to lie to me," Gakupo laughed, "I've been in a daze for a long time, remember what happened?"

"Don't remember?" Kaito also smiled and looked up at him, "Who tore up my two tickets to let me stay?"

Hearing this, Gakupo just laughed and didn't say a word, until the sound of the lobby broadcast sounded, and the surrounding crowd also flowed to the boarding gate, and the noise gradually faded away.

Gakupo finally let go of his hand and stood up: "Okay, it's really time to go this time."

"Wait a minute." Seeing that there were fewer people around, Kaito took off his sunglasses and grabbed Gakupo's clothes with one hand.He raised his head and looked at him with a pair of blue eyes.

"Anything else?" Gakupo turned around.

Kaito stood up and walked in front of him, looked at him for a long time without knowing what to think, and finally said: "You lower your head."

"Head down? Why?" Gakupo looked at him.

Then Kaito laughed: "Why else? I can't reach it!"

He put his hand on Gakupo's shoulder, leaned slightly to stand on tiptoe when the other party lowered his head, and gently kissed the broken hair on Gakupo's forehead.

The softest movement, the most familiar temperature.

"Come back and continue with the rest," he raised his head and smiled, "come back safely."
