[Conan Doujin] The Mystery of Theseus

Puzzle32 fireworks should be watched together with □□.

"All the information you want is here."

Since that day, the FBI side has indeed fulfilled the promise of information sharing, allowing Kuroba to consult the information he wants to see when needed.However, in order to keep the work confidential, the review process cannot be completed by him alone.

Putting down the stack of materials that were not heavy but looked impressive, Akai retreated to the door and watched the newly joined boy walk towards the table.On the desktop, there are stacks of file folders that have not been carefully sorted out, and a few single pages can be seen randomly leaked in between. The visual effect is seamless, like a pile of files that may be seen in any office.

"Oh, thanks."

Honorific words, short sentences that are slightly alienated, and an attitude that does not intend to continue the conversation.Hei Yu took the file folder on the top of the pile of files, did not open it, but repeatedly looked at the number pasted on the side of the file, and the label scribbled by someone on the cover.

The air was extremely quiet, and it seemed that even breathing was deliberately controlled to the point that it could not be heard.

"I understand your situation more or less," Akai said, "Kuroba..."

It is perfectly normal to address the person who is having a conversation by their first name.

"You can just call me Heiyu." Before the syllable of the name was read out, Heiyu directly interrupted him.This was somewhat impolite, so Kuroba put down the file in his hand, and turned his gaze to where Akai was standing, trying to prove the sincerity of his apology with his gaze.

But the moment he met his gaze, he regretted it.It is obviously not a good idea to look directly at each other when the aura is not equal.

So he lowered his head again, opened the file in his hand, and let his eyes naturally fall on the text and pictures in it.

Akai watched his reaction amusedly.

"...are you waiting for me to leave?"

The question is so straightforward that any answer other than "yes" sounds like quibbles.Kuroba took a deep breath, lowered his shoulders as if making up his mind, and then gave an affirmative answer.

"Yes."

Since the internal information could neither be brought out at will nor copied, Kuroba had to store the required information in memory.He repeatedly painted those words and images with his eyes, as if this could permanently engrave them in his mind.When he walked out of the reference room, he only felt that his head was dizzy and blank, and too much information was crowded together like trumpets beeping in disorder, too noisy.

Edogawa, who had discussed the plan with Judy, was already waiting outside.When they walked together to the nearby station, Kuroba put his hands on his temples and looked up at the sky.

"There are so many documents, how can I read them all at once..."

He wasn't sure if he remembered everything he had read.The orange-purple sky was reflected in the eyes, and the light at the edge of the clouds stimulated the optic nerves, leaving indistinct noises in the ears.

"What's the rush?" In Edogawa's impression, this didn't seem to be the reaction of a guy with a superb memory.He didn't take it seriously. "You can see it anytime you want."

"I'm not very good at dealing with your 'companions'..." Hei Yu muttered in a low voice, "...Why don't you sneak out a few documents next time."

His words were clearly heard.

"I advise you not to do this," Edogawa held back the desire to sigh, "Although they won't do anything to you now, please don't mess with me."

"That's true," Black Feather nodded, "but that said, I'm likely to become your enemy just from the name."

"enemy?"

"Look," Kuroba circled a few gestures in the air with his index finger, and looked at Edogawa, "Isn't there a word 'black'?" He tilted his head to one side, "Do you want to change it to be more like 'companion'?" What about the name..."

"What are you driving—"

"How about 'Akabane'?"

"That's why I've said it," Edogawa said helplessly, and Edogawa couldn't understand the direction of the topic, "The name is not at all—"

"'Niwa' seems pretty good too..."

"'Kuroba' will do!"

The nonsensical discussion about the name ended, and both of them seemed to understand that this was just a side note to a serious topic, and they stopped talking and laughing very quickly.However, the tone of the topic did not change much.

"Don't mention that," Edogawa mentioned another matter without knowing whether it was considered or not - something completely unrelated to what they were talking about before. "Do you have any plans for next month?"

Saying so, he took out two vouchers from his pocket.

"Lan got four tickets for special seats at the fireworks display next month," Edogawa shook the tickets in his hand, "Do you want to come together?"

It might be too early to ask high school students, whose schedules aren't usually too full, to think about whether they'll be free a month from now.Hei Yu looked up at the sky uncertainly, "You ask me a month later... I dare not say I have time. In case I can't go," he looked back at the elementary school student who sent the invitation, " Wouldn't it be dishonest for me to accept your ticket?"

"I won't break your promise," Edogawa spread his hands, "You can bring Nakamori with you."

"I thought you would have more friends to invite, such as that..." Heiyu recalled one of his fans, "That young lady who looks very interesting, she belongs to Miss Lan friend?"

"Who do you think provided the tickets for the 'special seats'?" Edogawa added an accent on the "special seats" and crossed his arms angrily, "She has already invited everyone who can be invited. "

The so-called special seats are special seats where the organizers of the event circle the railings at the best viewing spots, place them on tables, and even provide snacks and drinks during the fireworks.

"Private seats... Ah," Kuroba thought for a while, but still couldn't give a definite answer. "Aren't the fireworks the same everywhere? I don't care if it's a special seat or on the other side of the river."

Why is this man talking so much?It turns out that the inviter still needs to go through a series of arguments and debates?For this kind of challenge that requires a little brainpower, Edogawa doesn't mind to accompany him to the end.

"The fireworks festival is not held for no reason, because where you can see the fireworks, there will inevitably be crowds." Speaking of this, Edogawa snapped his fingers, "So, where will the crowds be denser? "

"Of course, it's a place where you can see the fireworks without obstruction," Kuroba said, this is not a problem at all, "so festivals are usually held in those places."

"That's right, since fireworks have a specific place to be set off, they naturally have their reasons."

"Are you trying to say that, just like some works of art that cannot be understood unless viewed from a specific angle, fireworks also have the best viewing angle?" Kuroba shrugged. I’m used to seeing things from farther away.”

That's right!Edogawa clapped his hands in the bottom of his heart.

"So, you can watch the fireworks anytime and anywhere, but you don't have many chances to get a special seat with a good angle." He directly pushed the ticket in his hand to Kuroba's chest, "Just keep it!"

"But..." Hei Yu held the two tickets in a bit of embarrassment, "Well, watching the fireworks from the best angle is also a respect for the fireworks master."

He accepted the two tickets.This does not mean that the invitation is fully established, nor does it mean that Kuroba will definitely go to watch the fireworks on that day, but for Edogawa, this is enough.

Whether it is an admission ticket or a museum ticket, the time of the event will be marked on it.The exact time is a constraint, a commitment.

As for whether after making a further agreement, it is not known whether the bad luck that is close at hand can be avoided.
