A Tribute to Sherlock Holmes[Comprehensive]

The days in winter were short, and it didn't take long for the outside sky to gradually darken. In addition, the shutters were closed by Izumi Hiratsuka, so the light could hardly penetrate into the house.

The lights in the apartment were turned on, and it was a cold, pale light that illuminated the faces of the two teenagers.

The two looked at each other, both trying to get as much information as possible through observation.In the end, it was Kudo Shinichi who spoke first and broke the stalemate.

"Liu, you and Hirazuka, what kind of relationship is it?" The opening was a sharp question. About the answer to this question, Kudo Shinichi still wanted to hear Liu Lianji say it himself, even though he had already analyzed it before coming. about there.

"This question has already been answered, I just knew her before. Don't you already know the clearer part?"

Obviously, Kudo Shinichi was not satisfied with such an answer, and Liu Lian'er was interested in frowning like a scrutinizing gaze, and he added in a tricky way: "Why? Do you care?"

As early as the night of Christmas Eve, Liu Lianer tried to find out for Hiratsuka Izumi the detective boy's concern for Hiratsuka Izumi.

"I... just want to know the exact answer, and I want to hear you confirm it once."

Kudo Shinichi would attribute this to the detective's obsession, but he is still unwilling to admit clearly that he really has "care" for Izumi Hiratsuka that he cannot let go of.

Liu Lianer remained silent, he could figure out the entanglement in the other party's heart, and in a few seconds, someone would lose their temper, he knew.

"I also saw these things by accident." As he spoke, Kudo Shinichi took out a photo from his pocket, which was one of the stacks of documents given to him by the Kenji Police Department. The shooting of the scene of the accident of former Hiratsuka parents, it is a coincidence that you were included in the scene."

He put the photo on the table, turned around, and pushed it in front of Liu Lian Er.

The scene in the photo is the scene of the accident, which has become a wreck of the car body, Izumi Hiratsuka in a trance at the scene, a yellow cordon, and passers-by outside the cordon to join in the fun.Due to the different focus points, most of the clarity of passers-by is blurred, but amid all the blur, Kudo Shinichi still points out an outline——

"You are also here, I believe this is not a coincidence."

"Well, it's really me."

"I'm sorry that I found out about the relationship between my sister and Hiratsuka's parents. It just happened to be mentioned in the information provided by the criminal police." Yes, the connection between "Willow" and "Hiratsuka" is indeed Kudo Shinichi's accident.

"Since we all know, why do we need to ask again?" Liu Lian Er replied indifferently.

This is the reason why Liu Lian Er is willing to assist Hiratsuka Izumi unconditionally. Furthermore, he also hopes that Hiratsuka Izumi will be safe.

Ever since he rescued Izumi Hiratsuka from a gunshot wound a few months ago, he wanted to keep her safe.At least, he could be repaying the kindness that Hiratsuka Izumi's parents showed to his sister back then.

"Kudou." Liu Lian Er stood up, "I will cooperate with your reasons, you know it well."

Kudo Shin nodded.Yes, he knew it, but it was out of consideration for the safety of Izumi Hiratsuka.

"Compared to me, Hiratsuka should want you to support her more, so I agreed to your request."

Liu Lianer could see clearly, he was the outsider, he saw everything clearly.

"Eh?"

"Forget it, I also know that you probably don't understand this." Liu Lian'er turned and walked towards the entrance, before he left, he added, "Apologize to Hiratsuka for me, I couldn't control the slap on her Strength."

"Will do."

"So, farewell, I hope you can do what you think you want to do."

What Kudo Shinichi has to do is to solve those crises for her.As a detective, you have a terrible sense of responsibility.Not only to find the truth behind it, but also to protect the safety of everyone.

Izumi Hiratsuka woke up on the tram back to Tokyo with Kudo Shinichi, and the slight shaking in the car made her feel uncomfortable.The moment she regained consciousness, the dull pain in her neck that had not dissipated made her feel very bad.

The dissatisfaction in her heart began to pile up in an instant. The more she was like this, the calmer she became, and she even began to think about how to fight back next.

First of all, the leaning position made Hiratsuka Izumi feel very uncomfortable. She frowned and turned her body, but almost turned around, if there were no arms around her.

It was already completely dark, and she felt uncomfortably blinded by the headlights in the tram.The strength supporting her body was obviously from someone's palm, she squinted her eyes and finally saw the situation clearly.

"...Kudou-kun?"

At the same time as the familiar face of the boy came into view, Izumi Hiratsuka's suppressed anger dissipated instantly.As for Kudo Shinichi, she couldn't be angry, at most... she was a little puzzled by his sudden mutation before he fell into a coma

She was lying on Kudou Shinichi's lap, and she happened to see the boy's face clearly from the bottom-up perspective.The boy was wearing a hat and big glasses, the brim of the hat cast a whole shadow in front of his eyes.

No wonder this position is so uncomfortable.

"Are you awake?" The boy's voice sank slightly with a magnetic force that seemed to attract everything.

Now that he had figured out the situation, Izumi Hiratsuka leaned on the boy's knee pillow openly and squarely.She looked at the young man's face, and her eyes reflected the miniature of the headlights like a star shining.He just stared blankly and didn't speak.

From Kudo Shinichi's point of view, the girl looked completely dazed and innocent, as if she hadn't realized the current situation.

"Hiratsuka?" He called out the girl's name.

"Neck...it hurts..." The soft tone was a bit breathy.

"I'm sorry... I also apologize to you for Liu."

willow?

Ah, speaking of Liu Lian Er, she remembered, she was knocked out just by Liu Lian Er.

Such a thing happened...

Standing upright and sitting upright, Izumi Hiratsuka rubbed his neck with his hands.She arched her eyebrows and looked a little pained.Coupled with her already vulnerable appearance, it's hard not to feel distressed by this appearance.

"Sorry." Kudo Shinichi apologized again.

"Kudou-kun, you conspired with Liu to plot against me?"

The girl's speech was very slow, with a strong breath, and her weakness at the moment was revealed in every word.It's not true, or she deliberately exaggerated this state to increase the other party's sense of guilt.

"Sorry..." Kudo Shinichi still apologized.

After much deliberation, this is the only possibility. The fact that these two people cooperate is far beyond what Hiratsuka Izumi could have expected.She knew very well that these two people had no intersection at all.Besides, because of the play performed in front of the lover's hotel on Christmas Eve, it definitely lowered Liu Lian'er's trust in Kudo's new eyes.

No matter how you look at it, it is absolutely impossible for these two people to cooperate, besides, Liu Lianer... is all indeterminate, even she doesn't know that guy clearly.

"I thought... Kudo-kun betrayed..." Izumi Hiratsuka complained in a low voice, looking at Shinichi Kudo with trembling eyes.She made full use of her own advantages in this way, arousing the other party's guilt by showing weakness.

"Well... I can't think of any other better way." Kudo Shinichi really felt guilty, he touched his nose, and apologized again, "I'm sorry, Hiratsuka."

"It's okay, I won't blame Kudo-kun." The girl frowned and spoke softly, "It's just...the neck really hurts."

Constantly repeating the most hurtful point, constantly arousing the other party's guilt, and then lowering all the other party's vigilance and instinctive vigilance.

"Feel sorry……"

"It's all right." Izumi Hiratsuka reached out and patted the back of Shinichi Kudo's hand, "But...how did Kudo-kun do it?"

"what?"

"How did you convince Liu?"

Liu Lian Er should not be a very good talker.But for Hiratsuka Izumi, it was a different situation.

Hiratsuka Izumi didn't understand the reason why Liu Lian Er kept caring for her. She was sure that it was definitely not out of love and help.It's some kind of special reason, related to what Liu Lianer said about "before knowing".

But she knew the conclusion, Liu Lian Er would help her.That's why when Kudo Shinichi took out the watch-shaped anesthesia to target her, he chose to open the door after comparison.But she didn't expect that the person who greeted her outside the door was also a heavy blow.

"Well... I just know something about the past."

"past events?"

Liu Lianer also said this word, "before knowing", "before things" and so on.

Hiratsuka Izumi's eyebrows frowned even tighter. She put one hand on the seat as a fulcrum, leaned over and approached Kudo Shinichi: "What happened in the past? Don't you guys like to talk about these vague things? ..."

The soft coda at the end of the sentence heard a bit of the little girl's complaint, and Kudo Shinichi couldn't help but chuckled.

Soon he put away his expression, because what he was going to say next was very serious.

"Your parents saved his sister."

"what is this?"

"Does this have anything to do with Liu?"

This surprised Kudo Shinichi a bit, he thought that Izumi Hiratsuka could maintain a large degree of trust in Liu Renji in just a few months, just because he knew the chips of trust in him.

After posting this doubt, Izumi Hiratsuka seemed to understand again: "But... maybe it really has something to do with it."

After finishing speaking, she retreated to her body and sat upright again.

Her parents did save a woman who was almost raped, but Izumi Hiratsuka never expected that woman would be Liu Renji's older sister.All she knew was that the rapist at that time was Nagata Masaki, so she used that drug on Nagata Masaki.

Including Nanmu Sami, the store manager of the underground street restaurant, her background is also very complicated.In fact, that restaurant is only an Italian restaurant on the surface, and Kusuki Sami is the manager of a transfer point outside the organization, so Hiratsuka Izumi "works" in such a place.

Not to mention Nishina Sousuke who died later, he was imprisoned for crimes in the early years, and then kidnapped.

Of the three people who died from the medicine, none of them was innocent.

"Is Kudo-kun going to take me back to Tokyo?" Izumi Hiratsuka was still rubbing her neck, her fragile body was hit like that, and the pain after that was really long.

"Ah."

Looking at the train schedule, Izumi Hiratsuka thought of it.And Kudo Shinichi chose to cooperate with Liu Lianji, knocked her out, and took her into the car directly, but he didn't want to give her a chance to choose.

"You can do this...what should I say about you..." She was still rubbing the spot where Liu Lianer hit her, "If you want me to go back to Tokyo, just mention it to me?"

"Will you be willing to say what I said? Can I take you away so easily?"

The author has something to say: Oh, I'm a bit sad today, I always feel that the writing is particularly wrong.

I really want to write faster and finish this article as soon as possible, but I can't see the end, and I feel lost...

Don’t take negative energy as words qwq thank you and everyone is watching me qwq
