dear tiger tooth boy

01

At four o'clock in the morning, the sun has not yet risen, and the quiet moon is still doing its duty, gazing at this small city together with the warm street lamps.

The sky is still dark, and most people are still wandering in their dreams.Occasionally, a few cat meows and the sound of some small insects can be heard.

At this moment, the door of a single-family building on the side of the street suddenly opened.Under the cold moonlight, one could vaguely see the figure of a young man flashing in the room.The lights in the small building were not turned on, and the boy closed the door slowly and cautiously.Obviously, he didn't want to disturb the people who were still sleeping in the house.

The dew was even deeper, and the cold outdoor made the boy shiver uncontrollably.Although he was wearing a mask, his face was instantly aware of the coldness brought about by the low temperature.He tucked the heavy scarf around his neck with his gloved hands, pressed the hat on his head again, took a deep breath, and walked out of the yard quickly and lightly.

The task the boy gave himself was to follow a person, the father who got up early every morning and went out secretly in the recent days.

Keep your distance and keep quiet.While staring intently at the front, the young man silently recited these words to remind himself.

Turn the corner and cross the road.Well, neither was found.

The first time tracking was self-taught and successful.The teenager thinks he is quite talented.

Finally, the tracked subject entered a residential building.

The boy stopped in his tracks.Father gets up so early every day just to come to this place?

The boy felt that he should rush in immediately, but when he was about to raise his feet, he hesitated again.

This... what if I really saw something... what should I do?

At this moment, two people suddenly jumped out in front of the boy.

"Yunhao!" The visitor lowered his voice in surprise and shouted, "I knew this was the right way!"

The teenager was obviously taken aback, but he regained consciousness in an instant, and hastily stretched out his index finger to his mouth, and pulled the two of them to the side corner: "Shhh!"

The people who came also followed his example and put their index fingers to their mouths: "Shhh!"

Who are you trying to silence... Yunhao looked at the two people in front of him speechlessly: "Why are you dressed like this..."

There seemed to be two boys, one tall and one short.The tall boy was wearing a long black trench coat, a hat, and a pipe dangling from his mouth.The short boy was also dressed in British attire, with a dark hat on his head as well.

"Isn't it so obvious?" said the tall boy, "I'm the famous detective Sherlock Holmes."

Yunho had no expression on his face, and the pair of eyes exposed on the mask slanted to the little man next to him: "So, this is Hua Sheng?"

"That's not it!" The little man shook his head repeatedly, "Xiaosheng (Japanese pronunciation: Boku) is Sera Masumi, a high school student detective."

Boku?

high?middle?born?detective?Explore?

Yunho felt that his frozen face could not help but twitch.

What is this all about?

"What high school detective?" Yunho was speechless, he patted the little man's head lightly with a "snap", and the little man's hat fell down almost to cover his eyes in an instant.

"Zhao Chengbin, you came out to play cosplay in the middle of the night? Why are you crazy?" Yunho's right hand was still pressing on the little man's head, and he spun and pressed down, "It's fine if you get crazy. Today It's freezing cold, what did you bring Jiang Ning out for?"

"Don't let go..." Jiang Ning's hat was suppressed by Yunhao's hand, which completely covered her eyes, and she could only howl in protest.

Only then did Yunhao realize that he had vented his anger towards Zhao Chengbin on Jiang Ning, and hastily let go: "I'm sorry..."

No way, this size is too easy...

Jiang Ning straightened her hat angrily, and said angrily, "Xiaosheng (Japanese pronunciation: Boku) is a well-known female detective anyway, how could you treat me like this!"

"What female detective?" Yunhao looked at Jiang Ning like a monster.Sure enough, she shouldn't be allowed to get acquainted with Zhao Chengbin, this good little girl is becoming more and more abnormal like that kid...

Yunho didn't know at this time that Jiang Ning's hobby of playing various roles has been around since childhood, and it wasn't influenced by Zhao Chengbin.On the contrary, Jiang Ning came up with the idea of ​​pretending to be Holmes...

She was lonely in her childhood, and she often fantasized that she was a character in comics or TV dramas.From heaven to earth, ever-changing, omnipotent.Detectives, fairies, heroes...their abilities can all help her find her mother smoothly...

Originally, Jiang Ning would never reveal this side in front of outsiders.But as she became more and more familiar with Yunhao and the others, her heart was slowly opened.So, when she heard at Yunho's home yesterday that he suspected her father of cheating and wanted to follow her, images of the great detective Sherlock Holmes and the famous detective Conan immediately popped up in her mind.

"Ah, that," Jiang Ning raised her head, ready to seriously explain to Yunhao, "Shiliang Zhenchun is a tomboy in "Detective Conan", she is Akai Shuichi's younger sister, she..."

"I don't want to hear this." Yunho said, "I mean, why are you two secretly following me." It's so cold, how easy it is to freeze.Unexpectedly, following someone, I became a praying mantis catching cicadas, and was targeted by two sneaky orioles.

Yunho's tone was a bit serious.

Jiang Ning said in a low voice: "That... we don't trust you..."

"You have to tell me in advance."

"You will definitely not agree to what I told you. It's unnecessary to tell you." Compared with Jiang Ning's soft voice, Zhao Chengbin is still confident, "In case something happens and you can't think about it, Jiang Ning can persuade you "I can't persuade you, but I can knock you unconscious and carry you back."

Yunho stopped talking.

Because he was wearing a mask, Jiang Ning couldn't see his expression, but his eyes were obviously not as warm as usual.

Jiang Ning suddenly realized that she might really be meddling too much.After all, this is someone else's family business, and it's too self-righteous to follow others so recklessly.

"I'm sorry, Senior Yunhao..." Jiang Ning lowered her head, and poked Zhao Chengbin lightly with her hand, indicating that he would also say sorry to Yunhao.

Zhao Chengbin turned his back, obviously unwilling to apologize to his good brother.

There was no immediate response.One lowered his head, one turned sideways, and one lowered his eyes thoughtfully.

The night gradually became thinner.A silent triangle froze in the morning fog that was just beginning to appear white.

"Are you a fool?" Yunho sighed, and patted Jiang Ning on the head again, "Won't you catch a cold if you are a female detective? Do you have the IQ of a female detective but don't know how to wear a thick padded jacket to go out? This Can such a thin coat keep you warm? You, a girl, don’t want to be handsome in such a thin windbreaker like a guy?"

Jiang Ning's head received another heavy but gentle blow, but she didn't try to break free like before.

Senior Yunho, are you worried about yourself?

Jiang Ning was a little dazed.She had never seen Yunho talk to her like a cannonball, and it was the first time she heard him call herself..."fool".

When we first met, Jiang Ning only thought that Yunhao was a gentle and popular senior.Later, she found that he was too dazzling on stage, but in real life with his friends, he was just a simple kid.He is a good student, a good brother, and a good friend... She saw him becoming more and more shining, and because she saw more of his emotions, he became more and more ordinary.

This time, she saw this side of him again.He will be angry at self-assessed stalking, and will use blunt questions to cover up his embarrassing concerns.

The handsome "some guy" in a windbreaker immediately received a signal from Yunho's tone that he was no longer angry, and quickly turned around: "Hey, hey, I'm just concerned about whether the female detective will catch a cold , I, a male detective, also need your greetings."

Yunho didn't turn his head back: "If you faint, I will carry you back."

This guy is really... so quick to retaliate to what Zhao Chengbin said just now that he would "knock him out and carry him back".

Although he knew in his heart that the other party cared about him, Jiang Ning's tongue didn't turn around in such a questioning tone.She apologized to Yunho almost subconsciously: "I'm sorry..."

The little girl looked pitifully with her head down, which made Yunhao's voice soften instantly.He sighed and asked softly, "Is it cold?"

"Huh?" Jiang Ning couldn't adapt to the change in tone, and her teeth chattered due to the terrifying low temperature outside, and her speech became stuttering: "Mmm...cold...cold..."

In the manga, Sera Masumi has short hair and is a tomboy through and through.In order to imitate her, Jiang Ning tied up her long, smooth hair and hid it under the hat.The snow-white neck was thus exposed to the cold wind.

"Doesn't this female detective like to wear scarves?"

"Eh? Oh..." Jiang Ning shrunk her neck subconsciously, "I was too anxious when I went out...and I don't have a scarf that suits Shiliang's style in my closet..."

Sera's style?Yunho couldn't laugh or cry.Could it be that Shiliang's style is shivering with his neck shivering in the cold wind?

Feeling Yunho's speechlessness, Jiang Ning could only smirk in embarrassment.

"Next time, play a female detective with the same style as your scarf." Yunho sighed helplessly, took off his scarf and put it around Jiang Ning, "This time, let's make do with my scarf. Look, does this style suit that female detective?"

The scarf still carried Yunho's body temperature.This warmth is transmitted directly through Jiang Ning's skin.

Jiang Ning couldn't help but shuddered, but couldn't help but bury her face in the scarf she just tied as if harboring a ghostly intention.

This action made her feel shy, but she couldn't help laughing.

"Suitable, suitable..." She tried her best not to laugh, and said in a low voice.

"Thank you." Yunho patted Jiang Ning's shoulder lightly, "Actually, I'm feeling anxious... If I'm alone now, I don't know if I can muster up the courage to walk into this building... "

"It's okay, Senior Yunhao." Jiang Ning mustered up the courage to look up into Yunhao's eyes, "Let's go in together."

"okay."

The two smiled at each other, nodded to each other, and walked towards the building.

Behind him came the loveless voice of the great detective "Sherlock Holmes", "Hey...do you want to thank me too...hey, just give me the gloves...what do you mean by ignoring me? Hey..."

The author has something to say:

Zhao Chengbin: "Women always make things difficult for women, and single dogs love to hurt single dogs. Author, you single dog, come here..."
