me and my vest

Two weeks later.

It's completely winter.

It was a rare heavy snowfall in Tokyo. The snowflakes fell one after another, and then they were trampled by the swarming crowd, and finally became muddy.

Everyone has their own life.

Nothing seems to have changed.

Except for the recent inexplicable restraint of the criminal world, which has left the police scratching their heads.

But it also allowed them to have a relaxing Christmas break.

Yusaku Kudo waited at the door, because of the air conditioner, he took off his suit jacket and hung it on his arm, thinking about what to say when we meet later.

With a creak, the iron door was opened.

A prison guard came out, stood behind him, and said, "Come in, sir!"

Very respectful, very polite.

But this made Yusaku Kudo sigh, because it wasn't about him.What made this man so respectful was the man he was going to visit in prison.

"thank you, I know now."

Yusaku Kudo pushed the door open and went in, then found a seat and sat down, waiting for someone to appear on the opposite side of the glass.

He was very patient, and the prison guards did not dare to rush him.

An hour later.

The instructor finally came to this room. He was wearing a prison uniform. The black and white clothing brought a strong visual impact, making this man seem fragile, but no one knew that this was just an illusion.

Other prisoners who had been tamed within a week at least could testify.

No, maybe it's not just the prisoners who have been tamed, but this prison.

"Ah - Yusaku, it's you." He yawned sleepily, and picked up the receiver hanging on the glass wall, "I was sleeping just now, so I didn't receive any news. Do you have anything to do with me?"

As he saw Yusaku Kudo, the instructor's expression gradually became richer, and those red eyes shone brightly under the light.

"You..." On the contrary, Yusaku felt his throat become hard, "I know you can come out anytime."

"Yeah." The instructor was obviously not used to the clothes, he made a gesture of lifting the coat, and after realizing that he wasn't wearing it at all, he sat down casually.

"That's right, but you know, I will abide by the rules of our little game, just as an ordinary person, you don't have to worry."

"I believe . . . that."

"Then what are you doing here? I'm very happy to lose." The instructor suddenly moved closer to the glass, showing an inexplicable smile, with a few strands of black hair hanging down near his eyes, "Although I lost, I'm very happy."

He spoke slowly word by word.

You are willing to play with me, I am very happy.

Actually saying so.

Kudo Yusaku didn't know why he looked away, and didn't dare to look directly at the man's face.

This made him look instead at the mentor's wrist under the wide cuff.

On the pale skin, there are scars all over the vertical and horizontal, and several of them can be seen to be new wounds.

"……you are boring?"

The instructor followed his gaze and understood what Yusaku Kudo was talking about.

"Okay? After all, there is nothing missing here."

"There is nothing lacking here? You live the prison life like this." Hearing this sentence, Kudo Yusaku couldn't help laughing, and then asked, "Is Mu Cang healed?"

"It's so-so, I can move around."

After caring, he didn't know what to say anymore, as if all the words he thought were torn up and rushed into the sewer by someone.

"That girl..."

"Alice, didn't you take her away?" Speaking of this, the instructor suddenly felt that the glass between them was an eyesore, so he took out the key and opened the iron door.

The prison guards looked at his nose, nose, and heart, pretending not to see anything.

The instructor jumped and jumped out of the □□ area.

"Da da—look! I'm out."

He smiled and leaned over to sit with Yusaku.

"I received the news that Alice was taken away by you, what are you going to do?"

"I didn't do anything, the girl went away by herself." Yusaku said, "But I know what she did, I will find the evidence, even if you are a minor, you have to pay for your actions... by The law comes..."

"Go away by yourself?" The instructor didn't seem to care about this question.

Yusaku Kudo nodded, although he knew that he must know the news, he decided to say it himself, "Makoto Yamashita has surrendered himself, and the court will start a trial in a short time, but Yuko Sato does not seem to intend to hold him accountable. "

"Ah——Makoto Yamashita. I'm overwhelmed by the easy way. After all, you know I won't trust him. If he makes a move, I will definitely open the wooden barn. I can't bet on the possibility, he has it all Whether it's a video recorder or a wooden warehouse, even if I know, I have to do it."

"Even though Makoto Yamashita is already a criminal and a well-known wanted criminal, but after all I attacked him, it is normal for him to be detained for a while."

"According to the game of the year, even such a little bit of tricks counts."

"

It's a simple and cunning way. The instructor signaled the prison guard standing in the corner to go out, then turned his head, "Then what is your request?" "

Kudo Yusaku wanted to tell him not to engage in this profession again, but after thinking about it, he knew it was impossible, so he decided to change it.

"You do not want……"

"Stop pestering you? That's not okay. It's easier to find things to do when I'm bored."

"No..."

"You are not allowed to take action against Kudo Shinichi and Miyano Shiho, I can promise, and the black organization can also guarantee it."

Yusaku Kudo looked at him helplessly.

"How? I understand you." The instructor looked back, "I know exactly what you are thinking."

His crimson eyes contained nothing but the shadow of his old foe.

"Hey, Yusaku, you know I won't hit a child, right?"

"Even as a child turned into a drug."

"So there's no need for you to come here at all—whether it's working with Akai Shuichi or advising Yamashita Makoto, doesn't it feel very interesting? No, it's not the word. For you, it should be a sense of accomplishment, right? "

"After learning that Kudo Shinichi contacted me, you were so nervous, not because you were afraid, but because you were excited, Yusaku, you were joyful."

"You know you can finally compete with me face to face. You found me."

The teacher's words are as dangerous as a poisonous snake. At the beginning, it only circled a few times, and then it tightened more and more until it suffocated people.

He uttered his last words, creepy like a snake touching its prey's cheek with a snake letter before eating.

"Yusaku, without me for the past two weeks, is the city of Tokyo boring?"

Kudo Yusaku got up abruptly, overturned the chair, and walked out quickly.

The instructor also fell to the ground due to his sudden movement, but he laughed out loud. Yusaku Kudo, who escaped in a panic, could still hear the sound even if he stood at the prison door.

---

The prison guards re-entered after Yusaku Kudo left.

The sound of the iron door closing again made Shi Li stop laughing, and glanced at him at the same time.

"Well, take me back."

"Yes..." The prison guard opened the second door with trembling hands.

Just after taking that step, Shi Li heard a long-lost voice.
