At night, Heimuren slept deeply. His sleeping posture was very regular, lying flat on the bed, with his hands folded together on his abdomen, and the quilt covering his chest.
On the contrary, Conan sleeps with his arms stretched out. If it weren't for his small size, he might be able to climb over mountains and occupy the entire bed.
Their room has a double bed.
The same thing happened next door, but after almost being killed at night, Sonoko tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep no matter what.
Xiaolan comforted her and soon she fell asleep. Yuanzi didn't want to wake up her best friend, so she had to reduce the frequency of turning over and keep her eyes wide open until dawn.
Early the next morning, when everyone woke up in high spirits, Yuanzi was the only one yawning with big dark circles under his eyes.
Xiaolan blamed herself for not accompanying Yuanzi well, but Yuanzi waved her hand and said it was nothing, and she could just catch up on her sleep in the car then.
Yes, they still have to go out with Michiowaki Masahiko today.
Michowaki Masahiko drove up, and Kuroki Jin directly occupied the passenger seat. The three people in the back seat were relatively thin and could sit comfortably. Although Masahiko Michowaki was a little annoyed by Kuroki Jin's ignorance, he still didn't say anything.
The restaurant is built on a cliff, and Kuroki Jin looks out the window at the sea. From this point of view, the location of the restaurant is quite good.
Sonoko said she wanted to catch up on her sleep in the car and let them eat. Kuroki Ren got out of the car last, checked around and found nothing unusual before leaving.
The restaurant specializes in seafood, and the portions are so full that the man Kuroki Jin is very full, not to mention Xiaolan and Conan.
After the meal, Kuroki Ren excused himself to go to the bathroom. The moment he walked in, he bumped into the dark-skinned guy who was about to come out.
Kuroki Ren did not give way, but locked the bathroom door with his backhand, locking him and the dark-skinned boy inside.
"Yesterday when we were eating, you heard that we were coming here today." Kuroki Ren said, with a wary look in his eyes, as if he would take action if the other person answered poorly.
"Yes." The dark-skinned boy admitted without hesitation, but did not say the reason.
Kuroki Ren glanced at the open window opposite. Outside the window was the restaurant's parking lot.
"Do you mind if we go out together?"
Although it was an inquiry, Kuroki Jin's position left no room for rejection.
Fortunately, the dark-skinned guy didn't mind, and the two of them climbed over the window to the front of the car with great skill.
Suzuki Sonoko was sleeping peacefully in the car. Kuroki Ren was relieved when he saw this. He thought that the guy who broke into the house and killed yesterday had not yet done anything to Sonoko...
As soon as this thought arose, he saw the handbrake being lowered.
"Hey -" Kuro Muren broke into a cold sweat and pushed the dark-skinned guy next to him to let him see the handbrake.
"Can't open it." The dark-skinned guy shook the car door.
"Miss Sonoko——!" Kuroki hit the car window, trying to wake up Sonoko who was sleeping inside.
"Look under the wheels." The dark-skinned boy prompted. In front of the rear wheels under Kuro Muren's feet, there was a piece of ice that was about to melt.
"What a perfect alibi." Kuroki Ren sneered, and was about to violently dismantle this dangerous car.
One step ahead of him was the dark-skinned guy, and one step ahead of him was Masahiko Michowaki’s cry:
"Are you—hey!"
The dark-skinned boy was so lucky that he smashed the rear window with one punch.
Kuroki Ren came to the front of the car, fearing that the ice might break the car at any time, so he tried hard to stop the car from moving forward.
Suzuki Sonoko was awakened by the sound. What she saw when she woke up was the dark fist and the dark face of the fist owner, with an anxious look on his face.
The car started to move slowly.
"I told you to stop showing off, brother!" Kuroki Ren, who was at the front of the car, was already trying his best to suck the milk, and his pretty face turned red from holding back.
The dark-skinned guy, who was so calmed by Sonoko's sleeping face, opened the back seat door in a panic, pulled out the still-unconscious person, climbed into the front seat and pulled up the handbrake.
"Huh-" Kuroki Ren slumped at the front of the car, and the next moment he suddenly looked towards the door of the hotel.
Put ice cubes under the wheels and put the handbrake down. Thinking about the small refrigerator placed in the car, it goes without saying whose handiwork it all was.
Michowaki Masahiko's expression changed drastically. Just when Kuroki Jin was about to speak to remind him, he saw him pull out a dagger from his waist and put it against Xiaolan's neck who was closest to him.
"Lan!" Yuanzi's eyes widened, unable to believe what he saw.
"Don't come here!" Masahiko Michowaki, with a fierce look on his face, clamped Mao Lilan's shoulder tightly with one hand, and put the dagger between her throat. He was afraid that if his hand slipped, he would cut her throat on the spot.
At this time, he completely ignored that there was a child standing next to him. But even if he doesn't ignore it, he won't take this kid seriously.
The child stood in the corner, raised the watch, opened the cover, and injected the anesthesia needle.
Mao Lilan felt that the man holding her hostage suddenly relaxed his arm, hit Michowaki in the stomach with an elbow, threw the dagger away with one hand, and then threw Masahiko Michowaki to the ground with a back throw.
Michowaki Masahiko fainted.
The Chiba Prefecture police officer who had been following him emerged from nowhere and temporarily arrested Michowaki, waiting for the arrival of the local police.
After listening to it in a daze, Suzuki Sonoko realized that the person who wanted to kill her yesterday was also Michowaki Masahiko, and just now he had also made a trick to push the car and people off the cliff.
Suzuki Sonoko's eyes were red with grievance. After Kuroki Jin treated the wound on the dark-skinned brother's hand that was scratched by the glass, he wanted to comfort her, but someone beat him to it.
"That kind of man is not worth your tears." The dark-skinned guy looked serious, "A simple and cute girl like you will be liked by many people."
"Really, really?" Suzuki Sonoko looked at him with red eyes, like a little rabbit that couldn't eat carrots.
Laughing at the metaphor in his heart, he pushed up the frames of his glasses and nodded seriously.
"like me."
Kuroki witnessed the blushing look of the dark-skinned man. He said to Sonoko: "When your good friend was competing before, I liked the way you cheered for her in the stands."
"Ah, no wonder I always thought you looked familiar." Mao Lilan then remembered, "You are the captain of Acupo High School, known as the "Kicking Beauty" - "
"Kyogoku Makoto."
The dark-skinned man announced his name.
His hand joints were still covered with tape, and his clothes were ordinary, but in Sonoko's eyes, his image suddenly became taller.
Kyogoku seems to be a shy person. After revealing his feelings, he did not dare to see the person's reaction. Instead, he turned around and thanked Kuroki Jin for bandaging him.
"Nothing." Kuroki Ren smiled.
Kyogoku Makoto and Kuroki Jin passed by each other, and Kuroki Jin clearly heard him say:
"If you can't compete with others, you are welcome to come to me."
