kill a detective

Kaoru Nishi Kujo has no impression of her biological parents. They went to another world because of a car accident when she was very young. The only concept she has of them is a photo she got from the police.Two beautiful people smiling gently at the camera, the adoptive parents pointed her out and told her that they were the ones who gave her life.

That was the first time Kaoru Nishikujo came into contact with the concept of life and death.

The funeral of her parents is vague in the depths of distant memory. I can only vaguely remember that she was squatting at the door when she was a little girl. Adults came to hug her and shed two tears on her. The sun in the sky was too bright. She was hot and sweaty.

"Where's Mom? I want to eat ice cream."

An innocent child's wish that was incompatible with the funeral was melted by the sun and dripped on the corner of the wall, no one paid attention to it.

It was only later that Kaoru Nishikujo gradually understood that the so-called death means no response.There is a wall between life and death, the living can't get over it, and the dead can't move.

Later, she was taken home by her adoptive parents, and the photos of her biological parents were handed over to her, and they were carefully sealed at the bottom of the cabinet.

The adoptive parents did not hide her death. They said: "Although we are not your biological parents, the love we should give you is definitely not less than you."

She is such a lucky person, her adoptive parents kept their word, they had no other children in their life, and all their love was tied to her alone.

Until the white-haired man sends the black-haired man.

After returning to Tokyo, although I immediately inquired about my parents and went to see them in person, I didn't dare.As one of the rewards for working for Hong Kong Hei, Mori Ogai promised Nishi Kujo Kaoru that he would take good care of her mother in private, so Nishi Kujo Kaoru started to shrink his head with peace of mind.

She couldn't understand how painful it was for the person she cared about and loved to disappear suddenly without making a sound, and the whole world couldn't find it.Five months can bring her to the brink of collapse, how will mother spend these five years?

After leaving Okinawa, Osamu Dazai returned to Yokohama, while Kaoru Nishikujo came to the suburbs of Tokyo and stood in front of his father's tombstone.Perhaps it was Dazai's words that moved her, or maybe it was the encounter with Furyani Rei that made her let go of her obsession, and she finally came here to meet her closest relatives.

The tortoise, which has been shrinking all the time, touched the coldness of the sea, but still wanted to return to the arms of its parents.

"Sorry to see you so late."

With just a word, he choked up.It is also death, and my father is lucky. He closes his eyes and forgets everything. The reincarnation of the next life is a new beginning.As for the pain, leave it to those who are still struggling.

"I'm fine, please don't worry about me, and don't worry about mom. She will be fine too."

There are many mulberry trees planted in the cemetery, with green leaves and sunlight streaming through the gaps.The words "Xi Jiu Tiao" on the tombstone are engraved with shadows of leaves like a seal, which swayed back and forth in the wind.It seems to be responding to Nishikujo Kaoru's words.

The sun in summer is still so dazzling and warm.She stretched her arms across her forehead and looked out at the blue, cloudless sky.

"It looks like a good weather—" a very gentle sentence resounded in the breeze.

Kaoru Nishikujo turned around.A woman in a cotton and linen skirt stood holding a bouquet of red cannas, her lips curled up and smiled at her, and her eyes were covered with reflective sunglasses, reflecting a shocked face.

"Mom...haha...well, you're right, it's a good weather."

The woman walked around her and walked to her father's tombstone, and put down the bunch of cannas that were in full bloom.

"Other people want chrysanthemums to sweep their graves, but my family likes brightly colored flowers, preferably bright red flowers. It's really unbearable." When she complained, she told her the taste of happiness, as if she could imagine that one day, The person sleeping in the tomb joked to her coquettishly: "When you come to visit me in front of my tomb, you must bring brightly colored flowers. I like bright red the most."

My father has been ill for many years, and he probably sensed the time of death, but he didn’t want to see his mother sad, so he deliberately asked her to buy a lot of colors full of vitality—perhaps what he said just wanted her to live well and happily .

At that time, did the father know that his beloved daughter had gone to the other world before him?

There was never even a farewell between them.

"Who is Miss visiting?"

"Ah, that..." Kaoru Nishikujo avoided her eyes and said nonsense, "Come and see my ex-boyfriend—yes, he died a terrible death."

"That's really a deep feeling..."

The woman accompanied her all the way out of the cemetery and back to the parking lot.After the two said goodbye, Kaoru Nishikujo got into the car, still in a daze.

How did you meet your mother by such a coincidence?

She hurriedly touched her face with her hand, and confirmed that the person, skin, mask, and mask that Dazai personally helped to make under Hongye's remote guidance were still there, and she breathed a sigh of relief.

Just now, he was worried all the way, for fear that his mother would find out his weakness.Fortunately, just in case, preparations were made in advance.

It's not that she doesn't want to, it's not that she doesn't want to see her—it's just that unlike her father who has gone to the other world, her mother is still a person who is still alive in this world.

Kaoru Nishikujo touched her abdomen subconsciously.Under the cover of the cloth, there is a void that can never be filled, which means that she is now a ghost, not a person.

She is an outlier in human society, a stowaway who came from the other side for a short time, and sooner or later, she will return to the virtual circle.So what's the point of seeing mom again?Give her hope, and then give her despair, how can you bear to do such a thing to her?

"Tuk-tuk--" two times, the mother went back and forth, and knocked on her car window again.

"Miss, I'm so sorry-my car is out of gas, can you please give me a ride?"

... This, this is also helpless, after all, it is the mother's request, so it is hard to refuse.

He drove people all the way to the door of the house, and invited him three times and four times to drink tea.Said: "Miss please take me back, if you don't even serve a cup of tea, wouldn't it be too rude?"

It also makes sense, my mother has always been polite, and if she insisted on flattering her kindness, she would feel uneasy.

"That's disturbing."

Her home is a combination of Japanese and Western styles. The gate is a wooden door. When you enter, you will be surrounded by flowers, small bridges and flowing water, and a courtyard with green willows and low eyebrows. Step on the eaves, open the door and pass through a hallway to find the living room.The style of the living room is completely Western, with sofas, cabinets, and coffee tables.Although I haven't been here for five years, the family doesn't seem to have changed much.

Kaoru Nishikujo sat down on the sofa, and his mother quickly brought black tea and chocolate cakes from the kitchen.

The room is quiet, and the cicadas outside the window are screaming like heavy rain.

"Because I wanted to be quiet today, I gave all the servants a holiday. Is it too quiet?"

No, it's comfortable and quiet.The sound of the wind, the chirping of the birds, the chirping of the cicadas, and her mother beside her—and thinking of the everlasting cold moon and white desert in the virtual circle, Kaoru Xikujo couldn't help thinking: If only she was still alive.

She was surprised by the thought.She understands the preciousness of life, but she accepts her own death calmly.In other words, because I understand the value of life, I accept death more calmly.

But when she returned to the place where her soul lived, she couldn't help but think: It would be nice if she was still alive.

If she is still alive, she can wear a suspender skirt in the summer and walk on the street no matter how hot the sun is; I'm still by your side; if she's still alive, she can wait until next spring to love someone crazily and unreservedly; if she's still alive...

"Would you like a piece of watermelon?" Seeing that Kaoru Nishikujo couldn't eat the cake, her mother thoughtfully brought a piece of watermelon. "Sitting on the porch and eating watermelon is the most comfortable this season. It's my daughter's favorite thing to do. Do you want to try it?"

Her words were so gentle, Kaoru Nishikujo listened quietly, and had to use the greatest strength to restrain the desire to throw herself into her arms.

"Okay." She was almost on the verge of tears.

A string of old shell wind chimes is hung on the veranda, and the hanging ropes are fluffy and look like they are about to break at any time, but they still stick to their posts very dedicatedly.The breeze blew by, a string of crisp notes hidden in the chirping of birds rushed into people's arms, mixed with a mouthful of watermelon, and swallowed it together with Xia Tian.

That string of wind chimes was made by Nishikujo Kaoru and Furutani Rei for her mother on her birthday six years ago.My mother likes it very much, and can't wait to hang it in the most conspicuous place. It has been hung for six years.

The jingling of the bells means that the wind of six years has blown by.

Kaoru Nishikujo was biting a watermelon, leaning against the pillars on the veranda, and the family's little white cat named Cheese scrambled up her lap and lay down in a comfortable position. Two minutes later, one person and one cat yawned together.

----------

After deciding to officially introduce Rei Furutani as a boyfriend to her parents on her mother's birthday, Kaoru Nishikujo fell into a state of extreme anxiety.

The specific manifestation is that he always does something well, suddenly jumps up, and hastily explained this to Jiang Guling.What is "Father likes black and white, so you must not wear floral shirts on that day", and after a while it becomes "Mother dislikes seriousness the most, so you can't wear rigid clothes without any patterns and decorations": or "Father is very talkative , and you are well-read and knowledgeable, you need to prepare more topics to avoid silence", of course the mother is "she hates loud talkers and irritable men, so don't talk too much—"

"...Your parents' personalities are really changeable."

Seeing that his girlfriend was about to burn out the cpu, Fugu Ling thought of a way to make a table full of super delicious and rich dishes and serve them in front of her, so that she would not have any other thoughts to worry about, so she stopped by the way That chattering mouth.

"It's so delicious!" was the only sentence left at the end.

Thanks to Jing Guang for teaching him cooking and saving him from fire and water, Jiang Gu Ling thought silently.

However, this method is only a temporary solution, not the root cause. On the second day, Kaoru Nishikujo had already learned to intersperse the main points of the exam with the food, but he still talked about those few words.Jiang Guling pondered for a long time in the background sound of his girlfriend's anxiety, and decided to change to an old-fashioned but tried-and-tested new plan.

If Kaoru Nishikujo wanted to say something more, he would kiss her.Those are the soft and sweet lips that can never be kissed enough, swallowing it in one bite, like biting into an iced watermelon in summer.

She seemed particularly unable to resist his kiss, as long as his lips touched her, she would be fascinated and forget what she was doing, like a girl seduced by an evil wizard, she opened her in front of him in a daze.

Even if she recovers and wants to get angry after the separation, as long as she kisses back again, she will still fall into obsession again.so cute--

Let him always can't help pushing an inch.

"You, you...you just seduced me on purpose!" The girlfriend was furious, Jiang Guling smiled and pecked the corner of her lips again.

"Xiao Xun, don't be nervous. It's obviously me who met Mom and Dad for the first time, why are you so nervous?"

"I'm worried that Mom and Dad don't like you. What if they don't agree to our marriage? For example: 'I'll give you 100 million to leave my daughter', what should I do?"

"...Xiao Xun, what have you been watching recently? Besides, is 100 million a little bit?"

"Please be serious!"

Jiang Gu Ling hugged her gently. "Don't worry, relax, leave everything to me, your boyfriend is very good, and he hasn't failed at anything - it will be the same with Nishikujo Kaoru as his wife. Even if your parents really don't agree It's okay, Xiaoxun, nothing in this world can stop me from loving you."

Kaoru Nishikujo's eyes started to get wet when he heard him speak so sincerely.She blinked and deliberately hid her fragile expression: "You think so simply, you don't even have a marriage proposal, don't expect me to marry you. Besides, Jiang Guxun—how ugly."
