Expectation

Dr. Ali's home.The doctor is a fat middle-aged and elderly man with a beard, which fits his name very well. He has lost a lot of hair and looks like a doctor.But rather than looking like a rigorous and quick-thinking inventor, he looks more like a kind old man who walks his dog, lives a carefree life, and is common at intersections.He was always smiling warmly, beckoning me to have more refreshments.

I can't resist the enthusiasm of the elderly. Under the death rays of Sh.. Aijiang and small glasses, I shouted fearlessly, "One more cup of black tea~"

It smells so good!

Edogawa stare——

I couldn't stand it, "I thought you were a little too smart and like a little adult. Who can guess that you are a 17-year-old soul?"

I am a little aggrieved to say.That's right.Besides, in my eyes, 17-year-olds and 7-year-olds are both children, and being smart is a smart child.I am already an adult, how can I pay attention to children, and how can I care about children?

Edogawa still looked at me with weird eyes, as if I was some heinous villain who escaped.I spread my hands innocently, "Look, I'm useless, I'm really an ordinary citizen now!"

"An ordinary citizen involved in a bank robbery?" Haibara said coldly.

cut.

"Okay, tell me everything. Everything about your organization, and the people behind you now." Little Glasses took off his disguise and stared at me sharply.As expected of a well-known high school student detective, I looked at his unconcealable aura and suddenly lost my mind, remembering the praise reports in the newspapers.

I still think of the high-spirited boy ten years ago.so good.

"Hey, don't play dumb!" he said angrily.It is estimated that no information was obtained from Sherry.But it was originally, "This is an organization full of mysteries," I spread my hands, "We refer to each other by code names, and different departments at most know who has some skills, and each has a job. For example, although I am close to Sherry, I I'm not on the same team with her and I don't know what she's up to."

Seeing his disbelief, I thought about it and added, "At most I know some nicknames. If I go deeper, I don't know."

Little Glasses lowered his head in disappointment, not knowing what he was thinking about.

"As for me now..." how should I put it.I thought of the last time I was sad at my house and blamed me, I thought of his help in a timely manner, and I thought of those big and small things, and I stuttered and couldn't express my words.I also don't know what he is to me.

Is it the boss?It does not seem.I...work for him, and not for him.tool?It seems that he is not so cold-blooded.

I hesitated for a long time and said, "We are...friends."

Neither of the two looked at me believing me.I also know it's far-fetched, but I can't find another adjective.

Even... the truth is, we met by chance, and he just gave me a swimming ring.It's not that I don't know how to water, it just makes me more relaxed.

As I was walking, I felt a pain in my calf.Hui Yuanai looked at me with the stern and vicious eyes that belonged to adults.I silently swallowed some nonsense, changed the subject and said, "Forget about these things and talk about it later, sorry, do you want me to help you make an antidote..."

The eyes of the little glasses lit up, and his favorability for me seemed to rise all of a sudden, and he looked at me with what can be said to be gentle eyes.Uncomfortably, I couldn't help leaning back in the chair.

...this guy, it's scary.

Little...Oh, Kudo Shinichi, said in the kindest tone that seemed to be his own, "That's really hard work for you."

...Really, for the first time, I saw the meaning of "I didn't expect you to have this ability" from his eyes.

...I'm going to say it again, this guy is really scary.I didn't think about it before, but now I think about his reasoning ability and athletic ability. If this is not a real world, he must be a boss-level monster!

Xiao Ai took me by the collar and entered her laboratory.She showed me a document she recalled first.

It took me more than two hours to read it with complicated emotions, and I only saw a general idea.No wonder it is a medicine that the whole organization pays attention to. From the perspective of principle and mechanism, it can be a poison against the sky.

But... "This seems to be poison, isn't it?"

I pointed to a few lines here and said. "You think it's obvious that you can use more and faster damage to the human body here..."

Xiao Ai said flatly, "It wasn't originally."

I looked at the figure of her typing on the computer with my back behind her back. She was a small person, unable to say anything at once, but sighed in my heart.

She always does.Always unconsciously revealing the appearance of a person, I was so caught off guard.

I forcefully leaned over, "Then what am I doing now?"

"You?" She glanced at me in disgust. "Go wash the test tube."

"........"

"Let's see if there are any missing instruments. The doctor should at least have a centrifuge or something. You can see if there is any need. Don't be too expensive."

"...Okay." Wow, I was the leader of a group back then, but I was reduced to a test tube...

"Stop dawdling."

"Hi hi."

I feel that wherever I go, I am working hard for others.snort.

I originally wanted to stay at the doctor's house, but Hui Yuanai said that there was no bed for you to sleep in.So they kicked me out.I clearly saw the kind and kind look of the old doctor who hesitated to speak.snort.

I was standing outside the door, and I heard Hui Yuanai standing at the door and saying to the doctor, "Doctor, this person Che can't spoil her. Don't look at her as harmless to humans and animals, but she is actually the best at kicking her nose!"

"........"

I resentfully had to leave first.Hui Yuanai really knows me.I really want to stay at the doctor's house and never leave.Living alone is really boring.

I just came out of one boss, and when I got home, I received a message from another boss.Thinking about it, I really think that I haven't contacted Akai Shuichi for more than a month.I'm not in the mood either.

But now there is.

I made a phone call in a good mood and cut some boiled fish for the cat I hadn't seen all day.

I was lying on the sofa, looking at the cat and wanting to provoke it.The cat pointed its ass at me again.I was about to forcefully hug me, when the phone was connected.I was in a hurry, and then I heard Shuichi Akai say suspiciously, "You seem to be in a good mood?"

"..." Ah, I simply forgot to tell him that Shiho lived on the street next to me!It's not that since Xiao Ai came over, I've been a little reluctant to leave, and I've forgotten about this big boss!

"Hey hey..." I didn't know how to say it, so I could only fool around.

"I've been worried about you recently. But it looks like you're recovering." Along the phone line, his voice was a little distorted, but I couldn't help but hold the phone tightly, and a corner of my heart was unconsciously warm and happy. stand up.

"There may be something happening recently," he said hesitantly, "we will come to Japan."

I was taken aback for a moment, are there so many organized activities in Japan recently?I couldn't help worrying. "When the time comes, don't get too close to us. It's best not to come up and talk when you see it," he said.

I am confused.Before the change, I would definitely think that he must want to discard the useless chess pieces.But the people I care about now will not be in any danger, calm down, I can actually hear some...protection for me.

Really or not... I'm at a loss.

In fact, I just wanted to call him and tell him that I didn't want to do some dangerous things.I want to be a college student who occasionally skips classes with peace of mind, and an ordinary person who is at a loss for the future instead of worrying about life.I was going to... sever those ties.While I will be sad, that's right.

But in the end, I couldn't say it.Not only can't I say it, even if I hear it from his mouth, it's hard for me to accept it.I suddenly realized that what I said perfunctorily to those two children today was really a long-awaited expectation in my heart.

I... really want to be his friend, to be close to him, to be close to him, to even depend on him, even...to be depended on by him.

Not just involved in some interests and emotions.

"Well." I said.

Even though my heart was twisting and turning, I still spoke calmly.

After hanging up the phone, I sat on the sofa in a daze.The cat in my hand meowed at me in dissatisfaction.A silly cat who doesn't understand the owner's mood at all!

When I didn't pay attention, he ran away. He swept his tail and looked at me in distaste, and fell asleep in his nest.
