The thief girl wants to buy a home in Rice Flower

Meet the Parents (Jing Guang)

Well... so now I'm dead in the deep mountains of Nagano.

There is no one around, there is no gas in the car tank, there is no gas station nearby, the mobile phone should have a signal, but I forgot to charge it last night, and the screen went black, and I haven’t brought a charging cable—it’s called a system in every sense. The scene of coming out to work.

But it's actually not that bad, I have another guest in the car and he's so calm so far, I'm curious to see what he chooses to do.

The matter started at noon. When I was about to go out to the Maori Detective Agency, Jing Guang suddenly asked me to drive him to the Metropolitan Police Department. As a result, I drove halfway, and a red dot suddenly popped up on the map in my brain. It turned out to be Curacao.

Then there is only one thing to do, follow her, catch her, maybe you can find Rum by following the clues.

...turned out I overestimated my car's gas levels.

The only fortunate thing is that Curacao is not more than five kilometers away from me. She has stopped moving. I remembered the location and prepared to find it after filling up the car.

"So you haven't told me why you suddenly turned around and took the expressway to Nagano." Jing Guang, who was dressed in black and looked like a winery, looked at me calmly, "Until just now, your The expressions are very serious, as if they are following someone."

What he said was right. When I started chasing Curacao, she was almost the limit distance from me. I looked at the map in my brain and the map displayed by GPS. I had to decide the route in advance to avoid losing track while driving. Get distracted and notice that the oil level is too low by the time it's too late.

"Because there is a smell of alcohol." I sighed, "I'm sorry Jing Guang, I'm afraid you won't have time to go to the hall today."

"I was just going to confirm some information, and I asked my junior to send it by email." Jing Guang replied with a good temper, "And it's been a long time since I have such a rare time alone with Mikan."

I tilted my head to look at him: "Survival in the Wild sounds interesting too."

So Jing Guang, who was carrying a mobile phone, called the towing company and emailed the location. Then we carried the few luggage on our backs, wallet keys and mobile phones to be exact, and embarked on an adventure——

In fact, it is not an adventure. His mobile phone map still works, and so does my brain map. I can see that there is a villa two kilometers away.I don’t know how many hours it will take to wait for the towing company to come. If you want to return to the modern society quickly, it is obviously more appropriate to call a taxi to pick us up and go to a place with obvious signs.

I stretched, reconfirmed the location of Curacao, and marked it on Jingguang's mobile phone map.He glanced at the location, didn't show much concern, and didn't ask where it was, as if he wanted to concentrate on enjoying his vacation and put all his work aside, he took two steps forward, then turned around and stretched out his hand to me. hand.

"Tell me when you're tired from walking, and I'll carry you on your back."

I blinked and grabbed his hand: "Can't you recite it when you're not tired?"

He froze for a moment, then smiled: "Of course not."

That being said, I don't want my teammates to run out of energy in the middle of the journey, and it's only two kilometers, just chatting and walking.I haven't been out alone with Jing Guang for a long time. I have been looking forward to going out with him on missions since a long time ago, but such opportunities are rare.

"About the person you asked me to investigate before, I found relevant entry information at the customs." Jing Guang said suddenly, "She was born in Japan, immigrated to the UK with her mother three years ago, and came back alone not long ago. But she was alone, Judging from the surveillance video at the airport, there is a girl who looks like a junior high school student walking with her."

"Girl?"

"Yes, the blond girl who looks very similar to her looks like a foreigner or a mixed race. Because she is a British citizen, her identity cannot be verified, but most of her identity is forged, and no information can be found after entering the country. Previously, Satsuma You said, that girl named Shiliang is Akai's younger sister?"

I nodded: "Yes, I remember I mentioned it to you before, I met her by chance when Ley was still in the organization, and she almost missed Ley's real name."

"Indeed, you also said that there was someone who might be Akai's younger brother, but that girl who looks like a junior high school student..."

"Just ask Ley directly." I held out my free hand to him, "Lend me your phone."

"It's not so urgent." Jing Guang smiled and shook his head, gently pressing my hand, "It's a rare time to be alone with Mikan, so don't let a third party interfere."

Obviously he is the fourth party, but you are the third party.

I couldn't help but slander, and then curled my lips and changed the subject: "Why didn't you ask what that place was just now?"

"I'll go with you when the car is ready, and I'll know when the time comes." He said in an undeniable tone, "Go there."

"...I'm going."

Eh?Isn't this a logical way to go on missions with Jing Guang?Although there was a bit of an accident, it can be regarded as a dream come true in a sense?

He held my hand tighter: "Don't even think about going on an adventure alone, that's the only thing that matters. Other than that, Mikan doesn't need to tell me everything, like the reason for becoming Phantom Thief M, making Matsuda Ume The way of Li's identity, the source of the huge numbers in the account, the reason for the sudden sensitivity to the breath of the members of the organization, and the connection with the recent serial sniper cases—"

"I will tell Jing Guang in the future, and tell you all about my life without reservation." I took a deep breath and interrupted him, "But not now, I have to complete a promise first."

It's a promise with Matsuda that I will show him the identity of the magical girl first.

...Although Xiao Ai has already met, how can a daughter be the same as a man?

"Understood." The man beside him responded gently, "We still have a lot of time."

·

The villa that is our destination... seems to be different from what we expected.

Its name on the map is "House of Hope", but when you get closer, it feels that it has been deserted for a while, and it looks a bit gloomy with the darkening sky.What surprised me the most was that there were still policemen standing at the door, as if some case had not been resolved and they were protecting the scene.

"What should I do now?" I stopped on the side of the road some distance away from the fence of the villa, and asked Jing Guang for advice with my hands on my hips, "Should I call a taxi? Jing Guang, you should go in and see the scene of the crime." Not interested?"

As a result, as soon as I finished speaking, a car suddenly stopped beside us, and the rear window was lowered, revealing the familiar face of Maori detective.

Of course, Kudo and Xiaolan are also indispensable.

The god of death appeared here, and it always felt like a troublesome thing...

"Mei Li? Why are you here?" The man with the mustache looked at me in surprise, "The one next to you is..."

"I'm Ms. Matsuda's lawyer, Hiiro Hikaru." Jing Guang entered the scene in a second, "It's really rude to go out today without a business card."

"Because Scarlet Lawyer was temporarily caught by me to work overtime, and I should be on vacation today." I also acted in cooperation, and my eyes passed Conan's face, "That's it, I'm going to buy a mountain cap nearby The villa, I took the lawyer to look at it, but the car broke down halfway."

The man walking with them looks really murderous, is it from the police?

"So you want to find a place that is easy to describe and call a taxi?" The vicious-looking man said to the point, "Are you an acquaintance of Mr. Maori?"

"It's the big disciple." I corrected.

"Sister Meili, do you want to come with me?" Conan suddenly interrupted when the adults were talking, "Sister Meili's reasoning ability is also very good, maybe you can notice something that uncle can't notice."

Although, please allow me to decline.

"This will cause trouble for the police, right?" I smiled, and suggested maliciously, "It's better to let Miss Lan and Conan take a taxi with us and leave, and Teacher Maori will investigate the case alone."

Xiaolan seems to have a tendency to agree, but the vicious-looking man refuses, and even invites me to go with him, which makes me wonder if he knows Conan's true face, and he doesn't want me to put a helper with such a high IQ. let go.But he said that he would arrange a police car to take us back to the city, so I think it's okay to accept the invitation.

The man is Yamato Kosuke of the Nagano Prefectural Police Department, and the accompanying woman is Yui Uehara, a police officer of the same department.What happened before was indeed a murder case. Someone was starved to death in the room on the second floor of the villa. During this long and painful waiting time, he left a confusing death message, which was painted red with spray paint. A whole wall.

Kudo grabbed me and said, "Sister Meili, what do you think?"

"This death information is different from the general type of death information that comes up on a whim before dying. He has enough time to think about how to testify against the murderer, how to prevent the information from being destroyed by the murderer, and how to make it easier for the police to understand— —Does the deceased have any hobbies or specialties? I already knew that he was a painter and was familiar with colors."

That being said, I didn't study the case seriously, I was more concerned about Curacao, she has started to move, but I can't move, and I will lose her track soon.

Compared to me, the reasoning made by the Maori detective like a trick made Officer Yamato almost explode, but then, the male voice and footsteps behind him made my heart hang completely.

The point is not what he said, but—

"Miss Matsuda?"

It turned out to be Zhu Fu Gaoming who met once a few years ago.

That is... the brother of the fake lawyer next to me.

This was supposed to be a touching reunion of brothers. According to what I know, Jing Guang has never met his brother since he entered the police academy, and he completely severed contact with him after he was assigned to the police.If it were me, in this case, the one I saw at a glance would definitely be my younger brother, but he called my name first.

Should it be said that a smart person is a smart person?

"Officer Zhu Fu, it's been a long time." I walked up to him in two steps and said, I turned to look at Jing Guang.

And Jing Guang also took a step forward at the right time. I noticed the corners of his mouth trembling slightly, but when he spoke, his voice was quite steady: "Long time no see, Officer Zhufu."

He said softly and full of nostalgia.

"I don't know if you still remember me. I'm Scarlet, and I've become a lawyer now. I was really taken care of by you before."

Brother Zhufu... they really look alike.

I looked sideways at the two of them, and couldn't help but bend the corners of my lips.

"Indeed," Zhu Fu Gaoming nodded slightly, with a nostalgic look in his eyes, "It's been... a long time."

The author says:

·Finally, I had to make up a pseudonym for Jing Guang and cry

Scarlet (Hiiro) comes from Hiro Yule of New Gundam W (I heard that it may be the prototype of Jingguang's name, and I haven't seen Gundam

Yu (Hikaru) sounds the same as "light", from the voice actor Midorikawa

In the early stage, I couldn’t make up a decent pseudonym, so I kept asking my sister to be called Scotland, but in the end I still wrote the scene where I had to make up a pseudonym, huh?
