[Conan Magic Kaito] Starfall Night

Chapter 43 The Power to Believe

Sonoko, as the eldest lady of the chaebol, and the savior of the Japanese police, Kudo Shinichi, were present, so she would stay in the hall with Lan and Dr. No one would say anything.Hearing from them that Shinichi and Haibara were assisting with the investigation at the Megure Police Department, Airu couldn't really be of much help in this regard, so she consciously didn't bother.

Ai Liu naturally noticed Lan's faint melancholy when she spoke, and could also feel her inner unease and complicated emotions.

"...Please don't think too much."

But he can only say such useless comforting lines, hoping that the hands touching Lan's shoulders can give her a little strength.

Maybe Airu could have said something else half an hour ago, but now after listening to Haibara's words, those irresponsible thoughts have disappeared.

Because of liking, because of love, everyone will do different things and have different ideas.For her now, she is completely unable to comment on what is right and what is wrong.The "decision made because of love" in one party's heart does not necessarily mean the happiness of the other party-if there is anything else to say, there must be only such a hazy conclusion.

"Like" and "Love"——Since more than two years ago, Ailiu has tried her best to avoid such feelings from arising in her heart.She said it was to prevent her true nature from being exposed, but in fact, the reason why she tried to stay away from her classmates and even colleagues in the industry was also because she didn't want to create ties.Of course, this reason cannot be told to Urakami.

Although now—

This so-called wall of self-defense has become useless.

During the short journey from the lobby to the entrance of the hotel, Ailiu thought a lot.

Because the guests who were originally scheduled to stay and the audience who participated in the event were driven out, although the interior of the hotel was very quiet, the entrance was very lively. Except for the nearest few police cars, there were still people in the parking lot on the outside separated by the cordon. There were many brand-name cars parked there. Some of the guests who hadn’t left were waiting for someone to pick them up, some were leaning against the car to talk, and some of them stopped to watch the bustle because of the gathering of police cars.

She originally wanted to go to the door to check for Huiyuan to see if there were any suspicious-looking people wandering outside, but now it seems that there are too many people around here, and nothing can be seen.If you have to say it, everyone looked at the entrance with probing eyes, looking suspicious...

She stood at the door and observed for a while, with the cool night wind blowing on her cheeks, her mind gradually became clear.

"Ah, um, keep searching, please."

Voices were heard not far away. After a young man in a suit greeted two patrolmen, he took out his mobile phone and looked at it while walking towards the entrance.

(That person... I remember being...)

In Ai Liu's memory, she once had a relationship with this person.

"Ah you are……"

When the person passing by the door raised his head, he happened to meet her eyes, put down his phone in surprise and walked in.

Airu returned the smile and bowed lightly: "Criminal Takagi."

Although he only saw her once, Takagi seemed to recognize her quickly.

"Miss Wenyue! Why are you here? Ah, maybe you are also here to participate..."

"Well, I was entertained by Ms. Shou Hualian, but..." Airu smiled wryly, Takagi Yi nodded knowingly, and replied "What a pity".

Takagi naturally knew that most people should have evacuated the scene, so Airu explained to him for a while.After mentioning Sonoko's name and his relationship with her, Takagi also showed an expression of enlightenment. It seems that he is no longer surprised by the fact that this group of people are always wandering around the murder scene.

It is said that Takagi was originally responsible for such a case, but because Suzuki's chaebol status is here, and the victim is a Japanese lady, the Metropolitan Police Department also attaches great importance to it, and Megure Police Department is in charge of it. into an auxiliary job.Specifically, it is the earliest to come, the latest to leave, and to take care of all kinds of chores.

So, for the time being, I am only in charge of maintaining security around the hotel and searching for external evidence. There is no need to go in, hahaha——Looking at Takagi who is smiling a little embarrassedly, Airu's first feeling is that this person should be well used .

After pondering for a moment, she made up her mind and spoke again.

"Well, there is actually one thing I want to ask you—"

××××××××××

"Eh? Already know the murderer?"

When Ai Liu returned to the lobby, the personnel from the surveillance department had already collected evidence and left. This time it was the turn of the hotel staff to clean up the mess one by one.Although Yuanzi and the others are still sitting in the original place, things seem to have progressed by leaps and bounds during this period.

"Well, I just said that all relevant personnel should go to gather, and the case has probably been solved by now?"

Because Lan is in charge of convening this 'relevant personnel', she should be listening together now, and she is not here.

No matter how you say it, the death of a colleague will not be a happy thing. Hearing that the truth has been found out, Airu is also relieved for the time being.

However, the heart that let go immediately hangs up again.Xinyi said that if he knew the murderer, he really knew it, and the case would be solved immediately, which also meant that the police would start to evacuate from the building soon.

"Doctor," Airu stood next to the doctor as if nothing had happened, and spoke to him in a low voice: "Did Mr. Kudo say nothing? About Xiao Ai..."

"No," the doctor replied quietly when he saw this, "I just told me that I can no longer take my car, so I will find another way."

Because she had expected this answer a long time ago, Airu just nodded silently.

After 5 minutes, after such a short time, Xinyi and his party walked out of the conversation room deep in the hall. For Kudo Shinichi who is used to explaining all the causes and effects of events one by one , is a somewhat surprising short-term reasoning.Seeing that the person walking in the front was Miura who was in handcuffs and held down by several policemen, Airu couldn't hide her surprise.

The haughty look in his disdainful eyes had disappeared, but he was obviously dissatisfied with the result, with dissatisfaction written on his face.The one who killed Hualian turned out to be the person who helped her walk to the end of the thorny road... Although her heart was still shocked by the unexpected answer, Ailiu still tried her best to pull her thoughts back.

Looking over the group of people, Airu saw Haibara walking at the back.The possibility of her encountering danger has greatly increased with the passage of time, but she still looks calm and composed.

Since they are not acquaintances with them who have grown up, Ran and Sonoko will probably be suspicious if they approach them hastily. Judging by this, Airu had to wait until Shinichi, who was following the detectives, passed by her, and used him. winked.However, she and Shinichi didn't have a tacit understanding that they could communicate with each other just by looking at each other. Shinichi just frowned slightly and walked past her.Yuanzi found Lan who was walking among the group of people, and quickly went up to talk to Lan with a worried face.

Airu deliberately waited for Huiyuan to pass by before silently following at the end.

When she passed by her just now, she clearly saw that Xinyi's bangs were soaked with sweat, and his complexion was also very bad.Needless to say, the efficacy of the medicine is almost at its limit.

After confirming that the detectives at the front had escorted Miura to the door, Airu was about to step up and talk to Haibara.

"Eh?"

Huiyuan turned around first, but walked in his direction instead.At the same time, the other two have followed behind her.

The three of them walked very fast, but none of them made any sound of footsteps.One of them is the Megure police department who has clearly solved the case, but his expression is still not relaxed.

The other was Shinichi who was clearly in poor health.

Megure Police Department just walked past Airu, but Shinichi and Haibara stopped for a while.

"Go back quickly."

"Varied……"

Because of Shinichi's lines, Airu was surprised for a moment and wanted to refute.But she soon remembered that there was no time to react to his words one by one.

"Where are you going? I arranged for Xiao Ai to leave, can you stop doing unnecessary things?"

"what?"

This time, Shinichi looked a little surprised.But probably remembering the wink that Ailiu gave him just now, he walked towards the hall again without waiting for Ailiu's answer.

"Follow me."

Shinichi's destination is the Naraku area of ​​the stage in the hall.According to Haibara's brief explanation, it seems that the next confrontation is with the real murderer, and the real murderer is someone whom Airu doesn't know at all—the stage manager of today's event, Shoichi Amano.

(So ​​Mr. Miura just now is not the murderer...then why are you arresting him! It really doesn't make sense, and the time is passing by every second while doing these things...)

After Megure Police Department, Shinichi, and Haibara all walked into the Naraku area, Airu stood at the door anxiously watching the time passing on the phone screen.Although Haibara also explained that this was a trap to lure the real culprit into showing off, but to Airu who wanted to complain, these were obviously irrelevant.

Airu tried to peek inside from the door, the three of them surrounded a young man, and Shinichi was pressing him for questioning.Even though there was a distance of about ten meters, the tense atmosphere floating around the few people was still conveyed.

It's not over yet, let's solve it quickly——When Airu was looking at Shinichi's back with anxiety, someone patted her shoulder lightly.

"!?"

××××××××××

"Hey, hasn't the murderer been taken away just now? The car of the Megure Police Department is still here?"

At the entrance of the hotel, several criminal police officers gathered beside Takagi Criminal's police car.

"I don't know, but anyway, our team will definitely stay until the end."

"Haha, that's right... What else do we have to do next?"

"I heard from Mr. Takagi that there is a girl in the hotel who is mentally unstable because she witnessed the scene. We will send her back."

"Oh I got it."

The inquiring detective squinted his eyes and recalled, then nodded heavily as if he finally remembered.

"Didn't Mr. Takagi summon everyone to order?"

"Sorry sorry, I just wanted to make sure."

××××××××××

(enemy!?)

Airu's shoulders trembled, and she quickly turned around, but the scary man in black was not in front of her as expected.

"Is Shinichi in there?"

It was Ran who turned back from the door at some point.Airu breathed a sigh of relief, nodded and made a silent gesture.

"The real murderer is inside."

Lan's expression became serious, and followed Ai Liu to look inside.Airu suddenly realized that she had no reason to stay here, so she immediately began to organize words to explain in advance.

"I can see that they are very nervous in the police department...Miss Hua Lian is my colleague, and I really want to find out the truth of the matter...I am a little worried..."

In fact, except that it seemed that the man inside killed him, he didn't know the truth of the matter at all.In addition, Lan came too suddenly and was completely unprepared, and Airu's explanation was a bit fragmented, and the logical relationship was also very confusing.

"..."

But Lan, who was looking in the room, didn't care about Ai Liu's explanation. In front of her eyes were Shinichi and Haibara behind him. Looking at those two people, Lan's expression gradually changed from serious to lonely.But no matter how her expression changed, there was only infinite tenderness in her eyes.

Airu also lowered her eyelids.

Even if Shinichi didn't tell him anything, even if Shinichi was always missing, even if Shinichi met someone she didn't know when she didn't know, even so, she never complained.

Even if she only knows the outline of Edogawa Conan's identity, there is no doubt that Airu is [people from this side].

All that Eryu could say to her was meaningless comforting words.

Looking at Lan's mournful expression and gentle eyes, she felt that her heart seemed to be able to understand the pain of "the one who kept silent".

The two silently watched the development of the matter at the door.What put an end to this situation was the real culprit who killed Shou Hualian in this case——Amano's questioning with grief and indignation.

"There were days when we trusted each other... But once we separated, didn't even this kind of feeling exist!?"

His last words not only resounded in the closed room, but also hit Airu's chest heavily with a special crashing sound.

Wholeheartedly, from beginning to end, believe in a person——

Although Mao Lilan, who was by Ailiu's side, did it, it seemed very simple.

But I love to keep myself, and now I deeply feel how difficult it is to practice this sentence.

××××××××××

After Megure Police Department handcuffed Amano, several people came to the hotel entrance again.

Shinichi's body has reached the point where he can barely walk, and even makes people worry that he will turn back into a child in a second, but he finally persisted until he sent Amano to the police car.Ailiu was about to tell Huiyuan about her plan, and they were surprised to find that Huiyuan had disappeared at some point.

"What is that guy doing!?"

After saying this angrily, Shinichi dragged his heavy body and rushed into the hotel again.Lan immediately wanted to follow, but was stopped by Ailiu.

"Maybe we separated just now when we weren't paying attention. Can Miss Lan look around the door first?"

"But... Shinichi..."

"Actually, the news said that Miss Gray Li had escaped from terrorists before, and those terrorists have been trying to kill her."

"Eh?"

"It is said that the police introduced her to Mr. Kudo because of this, hoping that he can investigate the whereabouts of the terrorists."

"Wait, wait a minute..."

"It's very likely that they are already targeting Miss Huili here. Criminal Takagi's police car is parked there," Ailiu pointed to the only police car left in the hotel parking lot, "the police said they would escort Hui Miss Li, please let them wait a little longer."

After speaking, she hurried back to the hotel.

××××××××××

Lan only understood half of what Ai Liu said just now.

Lan hesitated for a while, and hadn't decided whether to convey Airu's message to the police or go back to the hotel to find Shinichi and the others. One of the detectives standing near the police car seemed to have noticed the situation and trotted towards her.

"May I ask what's going on?"

"That... said it was a terrorist, and they are targeting Miss Huili here," Lan blankly relayed what Airu had asked for just now, "But Miss Huili is gone, can you wait a little longer?"

The detective thought for two seconds after hearing her words, and then smiled to reassure her.

"I understand! I'll go in and look for it too! Please sit in the car and wait for a while. The Maori detective will arrive here soon."

"Dad...?!"

The detective nodded, loudly entrusted Lan to the other detectives, and trotted into the hotel again.

Lan took a step in the direction of the police car, and suddenly tilted his head as if thinking of something.

What she thought was that since the criminal policeman knew that she was Kogoro Mori's daughter, he should know herself.Although I have never met the other party... but the other party is a criminal policeman under the well-known criminal Takagi, so it is not strange to know her who has been in and out of the scene many times.

The author has something to say:

If it takes a lot of space to write out the case in detail, I basically skip it. If you don’t understand, you can find this live-action version by yourself... T_T

Although I said something earlier, this is Ke Aixiang’s, blabla’s

But Ke Ai will not be together because it has nothing to do with the hero and heroine (((
