How to start Meursault

Nanako is five years old.She lives with her father.

Nanako doesn't have a mother, but that's okay, because a five-year-old girl who has never had that kind of experience will not feel that something is missing.

For Nanako, her father was the first person who patiently taught her to speak—before that, she always thought that if she couldn't hear the voice, she would never be able to speak.

She finally learned to pronounce her name this year, learned to call her father, and learned to speak simple sentences.

But since four days ago, Nanako hasn't seen her father.

She was forcibly taken to a simple bedroom by a beautiful strange aunt, and then the door would only open when eating, put food in, and then close again.

Nanako didn't know what happened, didn't know why her father didn't come to pick her up, and didn't know why she was locked in a small room with no windows—the beautiful aunt spoke too fast, Nanako couldn't see Come out what she's saying.

Actually, Nanako didn't know how long the time had passed, she just estimated it according to the food delivery, and turned on or off the only light in the room 'on time' by herself.

This morning came very late.

Nanako sat in the dark, she woke up from hunger, but there was no new food at the door.

She hugged her knees and curled up into a ball, trying to relieve the hunger in her stomach, while keeping her eyes on the direction of the door.

— still no one opened the door.

After Nanako, who couldn't hear the sound, waited hungrily in the dark for a long time, she stood up unsteadily and tiptoed to touch the light switch.

After finding the protrusion at the memorized position, Nanako pushed the switch, but nothing happened for a second.

The lights didn't come on.

She froze for a few seconds in the dark, then flipped the switch down and pushed it back up again.

Still no light.

I don't know how many times she pushed it up like this——

Finally, Nanako sat on the ground against the wall and let out a cry that she couldn't hear.

A warm and rough palm brushed his forehead.

It is gentle and strong hands.

Nanako, who was tired from crying and passed out, could feel that she was being hugged when she woke up again, and her eyes were swollen from crying and she couldn't open them for a while.

"dad……"

Because her voice was also hoarse, Nanako wasn't sure if the person holding her could hear her voice.

However, in the next second, that warm palm touched the top of her hair again, his movements were gentle as if to comfort her.

Under such gentle soothing, Nanako leaned on the chest of the person who was holding her, and fell asleep again in a daze.

—Is it Dad?But Dad seems to smell a little different...

The girl who fell asleep in a sense of security did not notice that the hand that comforted her stopped for a long time after she fell asleep, and then hugged her carefully again.

"What are you laughing laughing."

Yu Shanda also looked at several of his colleagues with a stinky face and held back a smile exaggeratedly.

When he arrived at Yanai Ruoye's house more than an hour ago, the other party had already slipped away. In order to check if there was any usable evidence, he pried into the locked room and found a tear-stained face inside. The little girl sleeping in the corner.

Wipe your face clean, comb your matted hair a bit—

Wait, isn't this the adopted daughter of that guy Hiroyuki Kinzoe who disappeared?

Jintian Hiroyuki is the 'cook' whom Hejian Jingren took Yushan to meet last time.

Before He Jian completely disappeared, he answered Yushan with a lot of information that would make people's pupils quake in that transcript.

The most outrageous part of it is some very irresponsible and fearful 'plan' Amway.

For example, a large gang in the Kansai area ran to the east to redistribute territory in the name of 'anti-drugs'.He Jian also very 'intimately' listed a member of parliament that the organization could consider cooperating with - this person is a deadly enemy of the politicians supported by the Inagawa Society, and suffered several dark losses because of the absence of black forces.

Another example is maliciously disrupting the powder market in the Eastern Capital area.As long as you have a "cook" with a large supply, first lower the price to win the market at the beginning of the quarter, then squeeze the peers, and then let the "cook" disappear suddenly, you can raise the price to a very high level in a short period of time. Cause chaos, then it's time to fish, it's time to clean up, and it's time to shuffle the cards.

After this information was handed over to the superior by Yushan, it actually inspired some people's decision-making ideas. They should take the initiative to "guidance" instead of just chasing and intercepting them like before.Because of his obvious weakness, Hiroyuki Jin had a lot of information and let Yushan know that he had lost the bargaining chip in front of the meeting. Finally, after some operations and transactions that were not worth mentioning on the bright side, he became a member of the Asatori Department. A round of bait.

It's a pity that there are still other factions in the upper echelons. Although the situation was resolved, Hiroyuki Chikata's adopted daughter was forcibly taken away from the kindergarten and disappeared for nearly five days.

Yushan went to Yanai Wakaba's house because Yanai was a very important powder seller in the Eastern Capital area, and this woman suffered a lot in this operation, but she managed to escape before she was caught. She never thought that Yanai Wakaba was kidnapped and approached Tim Nanako's prisoner.

Then he was drool all over his chest by the five-year-old girl, and he still didn't dare to put the child down - Nanako's two small hands were tightly clutching his clothes.

"Senior, I didn't say that, your expression really looks very harmonious with this little girl." Yu Shan's junior said in a low voice, "And it shows that she has discovered the true nature of senior right away."

"Are you going to let her hang on me to meet Jintian Yuzhi?" Black air rose from behind Yushan, "That guy has seen me, this is definitely against the undercover rules!"

"You don't understand, this is called Huairou. Seeing that his daughter trusts you so much, Jintian might take the initiative to cooperate with us." Another colleague who was a circle older than Yushan patted him on the shoulder, Said, "You just have to sacrifice a little bit."

——If you hadn't started giggling again as soon as you turned around, I might believe your nonsense.

Yu Shan showed dead fish eyes very rarely, and slandered.

It turned out that Hiroyuki Kinzoe didn't react well to seeing his precious daughter sleeping soundly against another man's chest.

If Hiroyuki Jintian didn't have a gun on his body, he might have drawn it directly-but it wasn't just because Nanako was sleeping in Yushan's arms, but after he arrived, Nanako was half awake in a daze, but she was facing Yushan. Call Dad.

Fortunately, the little girl who was fully awake saw Hiroyuki Jintae, and rushed to her father without waiting for a second, and then succeeded in making Jintian only remember to coax her daughter with the burst of tears.

And Yu Shan, whose hands were sore from holding the child, looked at this scene, and retreated out of the room without saying a word, found a smoking room and lit a cigarette.

After Fanto's 'death', he climbed a little higher in the Inagawa Society.And in this earthquake of powder trading in the entire Kanto region and even the whole country, which was dominated by the upper hand, because of the persona of "Ayuyama Tatsuya" who has been a drug addict for many years, he has gained deeper trust——Inagawa Club The boss at all did not expect that Yushan would be the culprit for the gang's retreat in the face of the invasion of Kansai forces.

After Fan Teng surrendered, he confessed in great detail the information he had on the smuggling line, and it was precisely by relying on some of the top-secret information that Yushan successfully disturbed the entire pool of water without exposing himself.

"In the end, I learned some messy things from you..."

Yu Shan frowned half-frowning and looked into the distance from the window, the cigarette in his hand took only one or two puffs and then left to burn.

Although during the time he spent with that young detective, he kept thinking about how to make the other party "correct" and stop going astray, but after He Jian left, Yu Shan found that what he had to do was the same as what the other party talked about before he left. closer and closer.

Seeking 'profit' in chaos.To this end, he sometimes needs to take the initiative to create 'chaos'.

However, unlike the serious chaos that Fanto may have caused, these "chaos" used to weaken the local polar forces are small and easy to control. Although the effect is slow, it will not cause any vicious extreme reaction.

This way of working was unimaginable by Yushan in the past. The importance of drug intelligence itself has declined, and at least the powder market in the entire Kanto region is gradually weakening.

Yu Shan extinguished the half-burned cigarette butt in the ashtray, and then left the smoking room.

Before stepping out of the building and returning to the life of 'Tatsuya Amazan', he returned to take a look at Hiroyuki Kinzoe and Nanako Kinzoe.

——But the two ends of the scale seem to be too far apart in weight.

On the afternoon when He Jianjingren met Yu Shan for the first time, what he said after leaving Jin Tian Yu's house replayed in his mind.

Yu Shan looked at the little girl sitting on her father's arm, her eyes were slightly swollen, but she smiled happily, and turned away without thinking.

For the crimes committed by Jin Tianyu, even after the transaction, he cannot avoid prison.Fanto is actually the same.If anything, they just survived.

——If the two ends of the scale cannot be balanced and are far apart, it only means that the things placed on both sides are not suitable from the beginning.

"I'm really at a loss as to what to do with that violin."

Edogawa Conan said helplessly to Haibara Ai.

He was sitting on the sofa at Dr. Ali's house, and Huiyuan looked at his computer without looking up, just listening to him.

"As you said before, the quality of that violin is not bad. Although there is no auction record online, it is definitely a real Stradivari violin worth tens of millions of dollars." Huiyuan replied, "This is a huge amount of money." Unknown property."

"That's the problem." Conan showed a gritty expression, "That's not a huge amount of property of unknown origin."

"Huh?" Haibara turned his head to look at Conan with some doubts.

"I don't know how He Jian did it, but he obviously found someone to launder the money. The previous owner of the violin was said to be in Luxembourg, but there was no information at all. He signed all the documents and put the money away. The violin was given to me as a gift, and the corresponding taxes have been paid. In theory, I am now the legal owner of the violin.”

"Edogawa Conan?"

"Shinichi Kudo."

Both were silent for a while.

"you sure……"

"He won't tell others my identity." Conan interrupted Haibara's question with a very certain tone.

Having been with Conan for so long, Haibara knew very well that if he was unwilling to speak clearly on the one hand, and insisted on it on the other hand, it meant that there were some things in this matter that Conan didn't want her to know, but his own conclusion was not a problem.

It's as if she always thought Okiya Subaru was suspicious, but Conan stuffed him in his own house.

So far, although she has been frightened by Okiya Subaru several times, nothing really happened to her.

Haibara thought for a while, and then said in his usual indifferent tone: "That's not very good, you received a precious gift, and the other party took care of your troubles in advance, so you can treat it as a rich and powerful friend." .”

Regarding "Hejian Jingren", she just heard from Conan that he is a detective who specializes in gray commissions. He is one year younger than him and has a good level--Haihara, who has been in the black organization since childhood, is of course familiar with this level of the world. People accept it well.

——In addition, there is also the reason why she has a background in medicine and has led a laboratory by herself, and tens of millions of dollars are like floating clouds in her eyes.

Conan was not surprised by Haibara's reaction.

It has been a while since He Jian left. Although he has been investigating the traces left by the other party in the whole east intermittently, he has actually accepted some things a long time ago.

The reason why he keeps talking about this outrageously priced violin is because Conan is very clear about the source of He Jian’s funds. When he thinks of this, he really wants to hand over the violin to the police as stolen goods——

He actually tried.Because Hajime's situation was quite special, he half-covered part of the inside story to Amuro Toru, trying to let the policeman handle it. As a result, Amuro Toru told Conan with a 'kind' smile a week later, Hajime A very complete and legal document was made for this violin to ensure that it will definitely stay in the hands of Kudo Shinichi.

Facing the oppressive smile of Chief Gong/An, Conan realized in a cold sweat that this was another 'joke' made by He Jian and him, and then he had to try his best to 'justify' why He Jian Jingren sent him like this A gift to Shinichi Kudo.

— It can't be said that he didn't have the slightest thought of keeping the violin.

Just as Conan realized that the document He Jian left behind was a 'joke' with him, he also knew why He Jian chose such a gift.

Not because the Stradivarius is so expensive, but because He Jian said that day 'Holmes must have his Stradivarius'.

For He Jian, this is just for teasing, but it may really be that the money in his hand is a bit too much to spend.

Of course, Conan's "leniency" to Hejian is also because he has confirmed that Hejian has disappeared, and he probably will never have a chance to see him again in this life.

The half-truth and half-false complaints about Haibara Ai today are because whenever Conan sees the Stradivarius, he will be reminded of the "Eastern Capital" and "Gotham" by it, and every time Every time he tried to think about it, he was always stopped by a deep inner unease.

Conan never mentioned this part to anyone, and he ran all over the place in his free time, looking for the traces left by He Jian, naturally not in this name, but because of cases that He Jian might have intervened in. Depend on.

Not to mention, when he inadvertently asked Zhu Fu Gaoming in Nagano County if he had heard of He Jianjingren, he got an affirmative answer, and then he was speechless about a case of bravely catching a thief.

Glancing at the time of this case, Conan turned up another case from the bottom of his heart, and then didn't say anything - Akiyama Shinsuke's very suspicious change at the time coincided with the time when Hejian was haunting Nagano, but it also That's all, it doesn't prove anything.

One day after that, it was really a coincidence that he passed by the building where Fumie Misue and Chie Fukawa fell one after another.

"The bar is temporarily closed and will reopen after renovation?"

Noticing the notice posted on the door of the bar that He Jian and Yu Shan had been to at that time, Conan subconsciously walked over to take a look.

He remembered that Hejian told him that the gang leader who provided information to Hejian in Shibuya sold the drugs directly in the bar after receiving the goods intercepted by the Nishenhui.

At that time, Hejian and Yushan were investigating in this bar. The so-called "temporarily closed and reopened after renovation" was mostly because the drug dealer/drug was "handled", or the other party took the initiative to suspend business to avoid the wind. head.

Conan withdrew his gaze from the notice on the bar door, turned around and looked up at the top of the building, and after a while, looked down at the ground again.

——Actually, this is where Miss Sanmo and Miss Fu Chuan fell from the building.

After so long, the blood that flowed out that night has already been washed away. No, it should not be washed, but the road should be shoveled and resurfaced.

Conan looked at the brand-new floor tiles on the ground, thinking in a daze.Several of the floor tiles on the ground were smashed that night.

After the case was transferred to the Organized Crime Countermeasures Section, he hadn't explored its progress, but some details that Hejian casually said during the Fanto case were enough for him to guess part of the truth.

It was He Jian, not Yu Shan, who spread the details and doubts about Sanmo Wenhui's fall from the building that night.

And the party who received the message threatened Chie Fukawa with Miss Sanmo's mobile phone and asked her to jump off the building to apologize.

To relax the association a little bit, maybe the leader of the gang that He Jian contacted, and then in order to thank He Jian for his actions, the other party told He Jian the truth about Fan Teng being 'handled'.

"He Jian, what were you thinking at that time?" He murmured almost to himself.

As the real manipulator behind the Fanteng case, this information is actually of little value to He Jian - he must pay attention to what the people who were limped by him in the previous generation of the Nishi Conference are doing from time to time.

But Yushan learned the truth at this time, which actually had a great impact on the final outcome. If Yushan hadn't immediately turned to other factions of the Inagawa Association, Fanto would probably not survive.

——This is consequentialism, and I shouldn't make excuses for him.

Conan shook his head and corrected his thoughts.

At this moment, he felt someone looking him up and down with a strong sense of presence.

Looking back, it was a woman in a suit with extremely short hair, with tattoos on the back of her exposed hands.

Conan's heart skipped a beat.

Hey, shouldn't it-

Just when Conan started to complain in his heart, the woman walked towards him with a clear goal, then bent slightly in front of him, and said, "You were here just now, and you mentioned a surname 'Hejian'."

—Okay, someone heard me talking to myself just now, and then called the local gang leader.He Jian, what did you say to this lady so that her subordinates will immediately notify her when they hear this surname...

Of course, Conan didn't let his heart out on his face.

"I recalled that the night I met brother He Jian here, two people died in a row." He said calmly to the short-haired woman, "Miss Fu Chuan fell from the building in front of me."

Try it if you can.

Hearing that, the short-haired woman only frowned briefly, and there was no other expression change on her face.

"She said to me 'I don't regret killing her. So I'm a very bad bad person.'"

The woman's eyes narrowed slightly.

Conan noticed the flash of sternness in her eyes, and changed the content of the next sentence: "Although Ms. Fu Chuan fell from the building because she was threatened, she seems to think that it is good that she can die like Miss Sanmo. "

—He made it up on a whim.Even if Fu Chuan really meant something like this at the time, he didn't reveal it in front of the elementary school students.

As soon as the words fell, the short-haired woman's mouth curled into a sneer.

"That's really cheap for her." She said, and after a while, she cast her sharp eyes on Conan's face again, "Little devil, He Jianjing didn't ask you to tell me that."

"No."

"Oh? Then do you know that your elder brother Hejian..."

"He was the one who passed on Miss Sanmo's situation to you." Conan said first.

This time, the woman looked at Conan carefully again.

"You already know." There was a little surprise in her voice.

already?

This statement... He Jian said to her, if I come here to ask, tell me the truth?

Conan's eyes were complicated for a moment.

"He mentioned me to you." He said sullenly.

"He asked me to answer any questions you could answer him." The short-haired woman answered quite simply.

The air became stagnant for a short time because of these words.

In the end, the boy with glasses, who looked only seven or eight years old, asked the question he wanted to ask and got an answer.

"'It's the white detective's job to prove the 'innocent' of others, and the gray detective's job here', is that so?”

——It turns out that at that time, you had already decided to leave.
