If doubts can be realized, Kudo Shinichi must be full of question marks now.

"Is the mafia so upright these days?" Kudo Shinichi muttered to himself, looking at the direction in which the young man in the orange-haired black suit left.

"After all, it is a legal organization. Even if he was not involved in this kind of murder, there is no need to hide it from the truth—or rather, if it was discovered later after hiding the truth from the beginning, the police department will , his suspicion will be even greater, right? So it's better to be honest," Xiaoba said, "the police can't arrest people without a warrant!"

Kudo Shin nodded, agreeing, and then he looked at the girl he just met today: "I haven't seen you around, are you a child who moved here recently?"

Even if he has never seen this exquisite appearance and those pair of special pupils that are particularly eye-catching, as long as she is bumped into when she goes out on weekdays, the neighbors will definitely mention it when they are chatting, but he is very concerned about her. I don't know anything about this, so it can be seen that this child either moved here recently, or came to the neighborhood by accident today.

Xiao Ba's face froze.

Because it was the first time I turned into a cat, I was so addicted to roof parkour that I forgot to pay attention to the surrounding environment and got lost, so let’s not talk about it...

It's too detrimental to her glorious image that she just solved a murder case!

——At this time, Xiaoba forgot that he just said that he copied the answer...

She didn't talk to her for a while, and Kudo Shin subconsciously analyzed the girl in front of her according to the detective's thinking: she was dressed in a sports style, with casual shoes on her feet, eh, black gauze pinned to the left chest?Will children of this age be decorated with this kind of silk yarn, and it does not match the overall atmosphere of the dress... In addition, there is a little dust on the bottom of the pants, as if it has just been stained, near the knees, calves, palms and elbows There are scratches and red lotion...

Judging from the concentration of the residual red syrup he smelled and the appearance of scabs on the wound, it was a new wound that would not last longer than an hour.

Combining all the visible clues, Mr. Detective, a high school student, touched his chin and said uncertainly, "...are you lost?"

I found that I was lost, and I was too flustered when I was looking for the way, so that I fell...Of course there are other possibilities, such as walking nearby and not paying attention to my feet, so I fell, but if this is the case, what did he just ask? Whether the child just moved here, the other party can answer bluntly "No, I came here by accident" or "Yes, I just moved here", instead of keeping silent.

Silence can sometimes mean unspeakable.

Getting lost is one of the most likely reasons—especially for someone whose shame seems particularly strong.

The reason why I am not sure is that Kudo Shinichi is not very accepting that a person who can solve the real murderer within 30 minutes of discovering the case will go out and get lost...

Contrast cuteness is not such a cute way!

Xiao Ba froze visibly to the naked eye.

——He really hit the spot!

The high school student detective burst out laughing immediately, and before he was glared into anger, he raised his hands and surrendered: "Where is your home? I'll take you there!"

Xiao Ba was silent.

Kudo Shinichi tasted a bad premonition from this silence: "...you must have forgotten your home address, right?"

Xiaoba, who has gone out once since time travel, and is either looking for information on the Internet to understand the current social situation of the country, or reading in the study, has a stiff face: "I remember that there are many wisterias planted in the yard of my house, and it is a 10-minute walk from my house. There is a general supermarket nearby, and there is a bookstore with a Starbucks in the store nearby... I don’t remember the others, including the way home from the general supermarket.”

——After all, she was navigating with her mobile phone at the time, and she didn't pay much attention to the road conditions with the navigation in hand...

But if she was nearby, she should be able to recognize the way.

perhaps.

Kudo Shinichi recalled the possible locations nearby that meet these two conditions, and immediately screened out more than eight neighborhoods. The only symbolic one is probably the wisteria flowers in the courtyard, but this has to be found one by one...

"You moved here recently, aren't you familiar with the terrain?" He couldn't help asking again, trying to confirm.

This time Xiaoba shook his head and pointed to his own head: "I recently... forgot a lot of things."

Kudo Shinichi was taken aback, at this moment, he suddenly remembered something that he thought was strange just now: the child was dressed in sportswear, but there was a silk flower made of black gauze pinned to his left chest...

He wanted to ask, but he couldn't think of a word for a moment, and his eyes subconsciously fell on the silk flower——Xiao Ba noticed this, and followed his line of sight to see the black veil pinned to his chest, and quickly understood What was he thinking when he came over: "Ah, my parents passed away recently... My mother is from a flower grower, and her custom is that after the death of immediate family members, relatives need to wear black gauze for a period of time."

She found out about the nationality of the physical mother on the certificate in the study. Out of respect for the deceased, she wore a black gauze according to the custom.

"That's it... I'm sorry." Kudo Shinichi said softly. The child just said that his parents passed away recently... Losing two dearest relatives at once, he couldn't bear the grief, so did he have some memory problems?

"Since you can't remember where your home is, why don't we go to the Megure Police Department for help?" Kudo Shinichi made a very feasible suggestion, "You must be in the household registration section of the city government next to the Metropolitan Police Department." informational!"

Great advice, the only problem is...

"Huh? You appeared there because you got lost?" After hearing Kudo Shinichi's words, the surprise of Megure Police Department was beyond words.

...has to be publicly executed again.

The orange-haired young man next to him who had just completed the transcript and was about to sign and was about to leave bent his mouth. When he felt the wronged gaze from the girl with different pupils, he coughed twice, suppressed the raised corner of his mouth, and pulled the brim of his hat , avoiding the eyes of condemnation.

If it wasn't for remembering to maintain his own image, Xiao Ba really wanted to squat down and group himself into a ball.

The problem of getting lost is not a big problem. The people in the household registration department quickly found relevant information about Xia Ji Baxie (Xiao Ba began to think about changing her name when she reported her name), and followed the help of minors (Xiao Ba: No wait) I don’t think I need help!?) process and called her guardian directly.

Fukuzawa Yukichi.

Xiaoba: "..."

Thinking about why I lost my way, it was because I didn't want to meet Mr. Guardian, but in the end, I waited for the guardian to lead me in the police station...

Fortunately, Mr. Fukuzawa Yukichi came to Tokyo today. If this is normal, it is estimated that he would not be able to pick up the person after calling - no, if Mr. Guardian does not come, she will not have to run out of the house in a hurry, and she will not get lost. There is no need for someone to come to the Metropolitan Police Department to claim it...

So the culprit of all this is actually Mr. Guardian?

Xiao Ba's heart is very complicated.

"What's the matter, you have a bad relationship with your guardian?" Kudo Shinichi asked after noticing the complicated look on the girl with different pupils.

——It can be seen that this child is not particularly good at controlling expressions. Basically, whatever is in her heart will be reflected on her face. On the other hand, it also reflects that her daily life does not require her to hide her emotions. She can cry and laugh whenever she wants Just laugh...was a loved child.

There is no doubt about who is in love with her.

Losing the parents he loved the most, a guardian came... Kudo Shinichi pursed his lips, not really wanting to experience that feeling.

"That's not true, it's just... I haven't seen my new guardian before—well, I haven't seen it in my memory, and maybe I forgot." Xiao Ba sighed helplessly, "Maybe he stood in front of me, I don't even recognize it."

"forget?"

"That's what I told you just now. I woke up one day and found that I don't remember many things..." Xiao Ba replied subconsciously, and suddenly realized something was wrong in the middle of the sentence. It seemed that the voice just now was not Kudo Shinichi's voice?

She immediately fell silent, turned around slowly, and saw a strange middle-aged man standing behind her.

With silver hair, dressed in a kimono, his face can be seen not to be young, but it is extraordinarily majestic and extremely imposing.

Zhongyuan Zhong, who was planning to accompany the child until his family arrived before leaving, was already on guard: "Armed Detective Agency, Your Excellency Fukuzawa Yukichi!"

The silver-haired and blue-eyed male in kimono looked away from the slightly curly black-haired girl, and landed on the young man in a black suit: "...Why does Gravity, one of the five major cadres of the port mafia, appear here?"

Zhongyuan Zhongye: "..."

——I was almost misunderstood as a murderer. Fortunately, the suspicion was cleared, so I came here to take notes... How can I say it!

Taking advantage of the powerful guardian's attention not being on him, Hachi moved towards Shinichi Kudo indiscriminately.

In the end, she only moved half a step, and the big hand with the sword cocoon landed on her shoulder. It was not heavy, but it made her tremble all over.

Fukuzawa Yukichi's voice came from above: "At the funeral, you said that you could take care of yourself, so I allowed you to stay in Tokyo alone, but now it's less than half a month since you made a promise to me. This kind of thing - Xiaoba, you need to give me an explanation."

It can be seen that this friend who is probably really Xia Ji's parents knows that her daughter doesn't like to be called by her name... It's not right, this is my preference, not the original owner's... A little girl who is trying to spread her thoughts and have fun Ba tried his best to maintain his expression, and whispered that he woke up one day and found that he had forgotten a lot of things. He did not forget to emphasize that he could actually live alone today, which was an accident.

——She didn't lie, she just concealed part of the truth.

Up until now, Xiaoba has not been ready to face-to-face with relatives and friends in this body.

"Well...President, what she said is the truth."

The voice from the side attracted Xiao Ba's attention. She looked over and found that it was a baby-faced young man dressed especially Sherlock Holmes, with a pair of black-rimmed glasses on his face, looking her up and down.

After looking at it, he took off the pair of glasses, carefully treasured them, and continued to eat the bag of snacks in his hand.

Fukuzawa Yukichi let go of his hand for the time being, and watched the child take the opportunity to talk to the Megure police department on the grounds of "saying goodbye to the person he just met". He turned around and asked the baby-faced youth next to him: "The truth?"

"Yes, it's the truth, that is, it concealed part of the situation." The young man replied affirmatively, "She didn't lose part of her memory, but almost all her memories."

Fukuzawa Yukichi looked solemn.

"But it's not a big problem. As she said, she can take care of herself. Today is indeed an accident..." The baby-faced youth suddenly became hesitant, as if thinking for a while, He took out the glasses that he had put away just now and placed them on the bridge of his nose, "...Well, President, do you want to raise a cat?"

As if he felt that his words were not accurate enough, he added: "He can meow, he can act like a baby, and you won't run away when you see the president. He can let you touch his fur, and it's easy to raise, and he won't even comb his hair." The kind of cute kitty that catches people and doesn't make a fuss in the bath—well, although the president's favor will be distributed to the cats, but in order to make the president happy, I can still accept it!"

The baby-faced youth said with a little displeasure, he looked like the eldest who learned that his parents were going to have a second child, and although he was looking forward to the arrival of his younger siblings, he was afraid that the love he had received would be scattered.

Fukuzawa Yukichi: "...???"

What fairy cat is that? !
