Not too many out of four

Perhaps because the tense spirit was soothed and relaxed, "Zhongye", who had persisted in showing off for several months, fell ill.

The skin was burning hot, and even the face and neck became red and dry. It was not the usual elevated body temperature due to the transformation, but an obvious abnormal sickness.

After sending a text message about the pigeon leaving Ireland and not going to Osaka, before he had time to look at the other party's reply, "Zhong Ye" fell down unconsciously holding the mobile phone, no longer the lively and joking appearance with Li Jia just now.

She was so frightened that her face turned pale, she hugged "Zhongye"'s heavy body, she couldn't even lift it up, and she was very anxious: "Zhongye?!"

The boy who is heavier on the inside than his appearance is really not something that Li Jia can support. Fortunately, "Zhong Ye" has not completely lost consciousness. He barely raised the corner of his mouth and touched her face: "Don't worry..."

Li Jia held back tears that almost fell again, and scolded him with a nasal voice: "It's such a time, is Zhong Ye still going to say such things?"

People suddenly fell down in front of her. Is this something you can not worry about if you don't worry about it?

With the last of his energy, the boy turned back into a cat, and the fluff fell on her hands, only one-tenth of the weight of hundreds of catties was left in an instant, so light that Lijia almost felt unable to hold it, and his hands and feet were weakening.

In a panic, she ran back to the bedroom with "Zhong Ye", ready to change clothes and take him out to the hospital.

Even if "Mr. Zhongye" usually sleeps as hard as he can, but Li Jia ran back in a hurry, rummaged through the box to find out the clothes to be changed, and the movement of the cat "Zhongye"'s medical card and medical record and vaccine book, it is impossible for the vigilant little The cat ignored it completely, and raised his head with sleepy eyes: "Meow?"

Mao Mao shook his head to lift his spirits, he poked his head out to look at the sky outside the window, it was still dark: "Meow meow?"

"Mr. Zhongye" yawned in confusion and sleepiness. With his half-opened cat eyes, he saw Li Jia unbuttoning her nightgown, and immediately blushed, the cat turned her head and buried her face, her paws pressing on her ears.

Don't dare to listen, don't dare to look, and don't dare to move.

The original drowsiness was completely eliminated, and my mind went blank, and I didn't even have time to think about Li Jia's strange anxious state.

It wasn't until she changed her clothes in a panic and was about to go out with "Zhongye" and the materials she needed to bring, "Zhongye-jun" turned her head and got out of the cat's nest, jumped out and ran to her feet: "Meow Meow?"

"Mr. Zhongye..." The kitten stuck at her feet reminded Li Jia that she still had someone to rely on, and she said in a trembling voice: "Zhongye is sick, and his body is very hot."

It's not the high fever they usually have, but it's very dangerous for cats. They can feel the heat through the hair, and the dry nose and paw pads are sick.

"Mr. Zhongye" turned back into a human without hesitation, stretched out his hand to pet the cat, his expression was ugly: "Why is it so hot?"

Generally speaking, when they recover as a cat, their body temperature will drop to the cat’s normal temperature, which will not affect their daily life. The cat’s meat pad is used to dissipate heat and sweat, and keep the nose moist to maintain a healthy state, but now it is on Zhongye’s body Neither accounted for.

Li Jia shook her head with tears in her eyes, and said anxiously: "I'm taking Zhongye to see a doctor now, can Mr. Zhongye stay at home and help take care of the house?"

If "Brother Zhongye" and the others come back, someone can tell them.

"I'll go with you. If they can't find us when they come back, we will naturally use the collar to contact you." How could he let Li Jia run out to find the pet hospital by himself late at night. "If there is anything wrong between the two of you, I can also help you run errands."

When he sleeps, he directly transforms back into a cat state, and now there is still time to change clothes.

Li Jia sniffed and whispered, "Thank you, Mr. Zhongye."

She is not alone at home now, and there is "Mr. Zhongye" by her side to rely on.

"Time is running out, let's take a shortcut," "Mr. Zhongye" picked him up horizontally, lowered his head and asked, "Should we go to the Cupido Shopping Street or the pet hospital near the Mihua Hotel?"

It is impossible to get a taxi immediately when going out at this time, and it will take time to make an appointment to wait for the taxi to come, so it is better for him to run to the pet hospital directly with them in his arms.

Unexpectedly being picked up, Li Jia only panicked for a moment, she quickly realized what "Nakaya-kun" meant, raised her hand and wiped her tears: "Go to the pet hospital at the west end of the Toriya Bridge, it is open 24 hours. "

Toriya-cho needs to pass through Kubado-cho from Mihua-cho. The pet hospital in Toya-cho is actually the farthest place from home, but at this time, only the pet hospital in Toya-cho can treat "Chuya" immediately. .

If there is no "Zhong Yejun", she may choose the pet hospital she has been to before to call the doctor, but now that she can ignore the time distance, her first choice is naturally the 24-hour pet hospital.

"Understood." The young man replied in a deep voice, striding out of the balcony with Li Jia in his arms, the red light covered his whole body with his feet, and flew towards the direction of Toriya Town, leaving only a red streak in the dark night. Afterimage.

After a few months, she was hugged by "Mr. Zhongye" and moved at high speed again. The night wind blew over and all was blocked by the supernatural powers that filled the surface of her body, which did not make her feel cold at all.

The fear and fear left over from a few months ago gradually turned into trust and peace of mind. Li Jia hugged the cat in her arms tightly, lying in a hot ball in her arms, her body did not rise and fall obviously, and she let out heavy wheezing.

"Soon, soon..." She muttered in a low voice, stroking the cat's fur with slightly trembling fingers, not knowing whether she was telling herself or comforting "Zhongye" who fell into a coma and couldn't hear clearly.

Even though she was hugged tightly by "Chuye-kun" through the clothes, she could still feel his high body temperature.

Li Jia couldn't help but began to worry whether "Mr. Zhongye" would suddenly fall ill like "Zhongye". She thought that such a high fever would have little effect on their bodies, but now it seems that as long as they are human beings, it is inevitable Sick and injured.

As strong as the Central Plains, it is impossible to avoid falling into a coma due to illness, physical injury and bleeding, and mental fatigue and burnout. They are not iron-clad existences, and they also need to pay attention to their physical condition.

"Don't worry, it is not so easy to die in the Central Plains." The boy's calm and low voice came from above.

She looked up at him in a daze, extremely calm and calm, as if she was determined that nothing would happen.

Li Jia couldn't hold back and asked, "Why is Mr. Zhongye so sure?"

Why can they all say the same thing? Don't worry, is this sentence Chuya Chuya and the others specifically used to deal with her?

She hugged the hot cat tightly in her arms, and buried her face in it to hide the tears overflowing from her eyes.

Why can they say such things without any burden? Do they think that if they don't worry, she can really control and restrain their emotions, don't worry about their whereabouts and physical health, and still live happily every day like a little fool? Live your own life?

Tears wet the cat's fur little by little and seeped in, but she couldn't bear to look up at the expression of "Mr. Zhongye", she was already afraid of hearing their words, don't worry.

This sentence, which was originally used to comfort people, gradually began to become a knot in Li Jia's heart.

"Because I am Zhongye of the Central Plains," "Mr. Zhongye" said slowly, "Zhongye of the Central Plains will not easily leave the person he wants to protect and leave this world."

He believed that the guy thought the same as he did.

They will not leave Li Jia easily and die in front of her, leaving her alone.

The girl who was buried in the fur of the cat and shed tears silently choked up, and asked, "Are you all bastards?"

Use such words to promise her that she will not die easily.

They're all a bunch of self-inflicted bastards.

……

The moment the doctor touched him, the drowsy "Zhongye" opened his eyes vigilantly and raised his head: "Mi."

Li Jia comforted him in a low voice: "Don't be afraid, the doctor is also helping to check."

"Mimi?" Putting Maomao's head in Lijia's palm, he licked his mouth weakly and whispered, "Mimi."

"Zhong Ye" will feel at ease and let himself fall down, turning back into a cat and falling into a coma because the person in front of him is Li Jia, and his location is at home, the environment and people he trusts enough.

Once he switched to another place and let the strange breath touch him, he would open his eyes no matter how tired he was.

"Chuya got sick and had a fever, and his body became very hot." Li Jia tried to divert his attention, so that the doctor could take the opportunity to check and treat him. "We are now in the hospital in Toya Town."

"Mimi?" He was a little stunned. He would enter the pet hospital again because of illness. He thought that after he could become a human, he would basically say goodbye to the pet hospital and would never come here again.

"Zhong Ye" turned his head left and right, and cried out worriedly: "Mimi! Mimi?"

The inside of the hospital is closed and it is impossible to see the sky outside, but "Zhong Ye" is sure that he has not been in a coma for a long time. He still has a certain degree of control over his body.

He still has someone to protect, how could he allow himself to fall asleep for a long time and lose consciousness.

"I didn't go out alone at night. Mr. Chuya sent us out." Li Jia's eyes dropped, and her fingertips carefully touched the cat's ears. "Don't think so much, what Zhongya needs now is to have a good rest."

They are always worried that she will be in danger when she goes out alone, and they always want someone to protect her.

Zhong Yuanzhong will never leave Li Jia's side. They know all her whereabouts and believe that only such thorough protection can allow her to continue living with peace of mind.

Because they didn't want her to worry, they would not tell her their whereabouts and purpose.

She understands and considers them, and thinks that they have their own sense of proportion, so she has never interfered.

Just stay at home and worry silently, silently waiting for them to come back.

It is true that Dr. Ali's positioning collar can let her know where Nakahara Chuya and the others have gone after leaving Mihuacho, but the signal from the transmitter cannot follow them up the mountain and into the water, and once they leave Tokyo Rijia, they cannot know where they are going.

...but isn't that unfair?

They can keep track of her whereabouts at any time, rest assured that her safety will be protected by others, and they don't need to worry about going out to do dangerous things.

And she can only watch them get hurt and sick, come back and tell her: "Don't worry, trust me."

How much she wanted to say, what she wanted to hear was not their empty promises.

Li Jia is worried about Chuya Nakahara because they are her family.

For family members who are sick, injured and in danger, how could they just say "don't worry" to put your heart and mind at ease, and don't care about what they are doing outside.

She has been trying to tell herself to believe them, boys don't like being restrained, no matter how old they are, but in the end they squander their bodies more and more unscrupulously.

Li Jia no longer wants to trust them unconditionally.

……

When Edogawa Conan was called back to Kudo's house, he didn't realize the seriousness of the matter.

He just asked suspiciously, "Is today a special day?"

Everyone was at home, no one went out to work or left temporarily.

The last time I saw Li Jia and the four Central Plains Zhongye were at home seemed to be a few months ago. After Li Jia started school and they adjusted to their identities, the two adult Central Plains Zhongye began to shoulder their jobs to support their families, often traveling on business and living outside.

"Zhong Ye" would come back every day, but the time of haunting was late at night and early in the morning, and he often didn't see others for a long time.

Only "Nakaya-kun" is always with Li Jia at home, and they often have such a good relationship with each other that Edogawa Conan is worried about whether they are secretly dating in private.

Fortunately, Li Jia's performance is very frank and straightforward. It can be seen that "Mr. Zhongye" likes his sister, but Li Jia probably has no thoughts of more than friendship and family affection for them for the time being.

... If it wasn't for her being too inconspicuous.

Earlier, Conan Edogawa had no defense against his cats. He didn't expect them to like Li Jia, so he never found out that these guys were plotting against Li Jia.

Once he discovered this, he started to observe carefully and found traces everywhere.

These guys are secretly taking advantage of Li Jia.

If he hadn't known that Zhong Yuan Zhong, an adult, would often go out to work and spend less time with Li Jia, and that Zhong Yuan Zhong, a young man, would leave early and come home late, and he would not be completely at ease.

Even so, Edogawa Conan entrusted the Haibara sisters next door to help him keep an eye on Li Jia's dating partner, and beware of the four cats stealing his sister while he was away.

"Because there are some important things to say, I specially ask Brother Zhongye and Mr. Zhongye to come back." Li Jiawen said softly with downcast eyes.

The two grown-ups who did not force her to go out to work came back immediately, but "Brother Chuya" and "Mr. Chuya" put down their work and rushed back from Shizuoka and Kanagawa after receiving a call from her asking when they could come back .

She is very grateful for their trust and attention to her, but it is precisely because of this that she feels that if she does not ask about some things, she will not get a peace of mind, and she will no longer be able to enjoy their protection and care with peace of mind.

Zhong Yuanzhong is also protecting her in their way. In fact, Li Jia only needs to obediently stay in the protected area under their circle to live in peace and not need to worry about anything.

But if you don't know anything, you don't need to worry about anything, which is a paradox.

It is impossible for her to see them rushing around and getting into danger, and she doesn't ask anything just for her own comfort.

"...Is there something important?" Edogawa Conan was vaguely uneasy, he cast his eyes on "Chuya", but Li Jia didn't mention this guy who has been elusive recently and people can't find his whereabouts.

The young man's face was still a bit tired and ugly, but lying in the hospital for a day was enough for him to reduce his fever and gain the ability to turn back into a human being. He also didn't want to waste too much time in the pet hospital, so he was going to go home and have a good rest.

It's just that Li Jia would call everyone back, not even Kudo.

"Can I ask my brother and Mr. Chuya to tell me what dangerous things you have been doing outside during this time?" The girl's voice was soft and harmless as usual, without the slightest aggression.

However, her words instantly made Edogawa Conan's face stiffen.

Although she knew that Li Jia had guessed his identity, she called out his name so blatantly and undisguisedly, it seemed that it was the voice she blurted out out of fear and panic after being kidnapped by robbers a few months ago.

Nothing happened now that would make Li Jia panic and call the wrong name, and there was no anger and sullenness in her tone, she still seemed very gentle and peaceful.

But it was this kind of tone that made him start to panic, frantically thinking about what he had done to Li Jia and Lan recently.

"What is Li Jia talking about?" He began to resist, and tried to perfunctory again with a dry smile: "What is dangerous, no one here is going to do dangerous things, right?"

"Brother, I'm going to be angry."

Li Jia said with a smile: "Of course, if I'm angry, there's nothing that can threaten my brother, and my brother doesn't need to take my anger seriously."

Edogawa Conan twitched the corners of his mouth, hey, this is not an expression that can be taken lightly.
