When mentioning the Twin Towers skyscraper, Haihara Ai naturally thought of the crazy helicopters shooting on the rooftops and the ubiquitous bombs. Then he remembered the dead Yuan Jiaming and the email about the Night Baron virus, and then he came to his senses and asked in a puzzled tone:
"I?"
She didn't know that Gin had fired at Sonoko, who looked like her, and she wasn't even sure if Gin had arrived at the scene.
Haibara Ai's reaction made Kuroki Ren also confused, and finally the two of them looked at Conan who was covered in cold sweat.
Conan: "..."
"Hey~"
Kuroki Jin suddenly wanted to transform into Mouri Kogoro and give him the iron fist of justice.
So he recounted the events of that day in detail, from tracking Gin to Miyano Akemi's residence and hearing the phone call from Haibara Ai, to the chaos that followed that day that he completely forgot about her.
Of course, he did not forget to explain this time that he only knew the full story after the incident was over.
Haiyuan was silent. She hesitated to speak, looked at Kuroki Ren, and then looked away.
Kuroki Ren was confused by her attitude and waited for her next words with burning eyes.
Conan guessed what Haiyuan Ai wanted to ask, but after looking at the atmosphere, he felt that he shouldn't bring up this matter.
Time seemed to have passed a century, and it seemed like it was only a moment. Kuroki Ren heard a nervous voice coming from not far away:
"That day when you were on the rooftop, you said something about my sister... What did you want to say when you didn't finish what you said?"
The rooftop of the Cupido Hotel was the first head-to-head confrontation between Kuroki Jin and Miyano Shiho outside the organization.
At that time, Miyano Shiho wanted to die under Gin's gun. Kuroki Jin interrupted Gin several times to persuade her to go back. At the last moment when Conan arrived, he blurted out that he wanted to rely on the news that Miyano Akemi was not dead. she.
For some reason, Kuroki Ren breathed a sigh of relief.
He smiled subconsciously. When he realized it, he felt it was not good, so he forced his smile back. He just lowered his head slightly, his eyes fluctuated, and he said lightly:
"I wanted to say that your sister was not dead and that I wanted you to come back to the organization with me."
Hui Yuan Ai raised her head and looked directly at him: "You lied to me?"
Kuroki Jin faced the scrutiny calmly: "It's true."
Hui Yuan Ai took a deep breath.
She clenched and unclenched her fists, trying to open her mouth to breathe but feeling dizzy due to the oxygen in her head, until Conan next to her yelled: "Miyano Akemi is not dead?!"
They both clenched their fists at the same time.
Kuroki looked at him sideways and said in a strange tone: "What? Is it weird that she's not dead? Do you really want to hear the news of her death?"
Conan felt that the murderous aura next to him was getting stronger.
He waved his hands quickly and said, "No, that's not what I meant. I..."
ah! He is so difficult! Why is it getting harder and harder for him! This in the end is why? !
"I, I, I want to ask, where is she now?"
That's a good question, and Kuroki Jin happens to know it.
But he couldn't tell.
Among the cooperation agreements between him and Miyano Akemi was that he could not tell anyone where she lived - she could not be said to be alive before it was changed, except for Jin Kuroki's strong request to add Gin. The restriction was changed to not reveal her residence.
Kuroki kept his promise and felt that he could not break the contract.
(Miyano Akemi: But that doesn’t include my sister, you bastard!)
Kuroki Jin blinked and said, "I don't know" with a face that looked like I had lied.
He even stuttered a bit.
Haibara Ai:"……"
"If it's convenient," she asked in a low voice, "could you help me ask my sister when we can meet."
Her voice was no longer as mature and cold as before. There was a hint of weakness in her determination, and she could even faintly detect the choking that was suppressed in her heart. Kuroki Ren felt that his soul was hit by this question, and his mind was trembling.
"I'm asking now." He didn't even realize how gentle his words were.
Kuroki Jin got up and went to make a phone call inside the house. To ensure safety, he had no way to contact Miyano Akemi directly and could only call the external receptionist Komori.
As a reminder, it is now twelve o'clock in the middle of the night.
By the time Kuroki Jin could talk directly to Miyano Akemi, half an hour had passed.
"...Well, that's it...I...s-sorry..."
Outside the house, Conan strained his ears to listen to the faint sounds coming from inside.
Kuroki Ren walked out of the door with an embarrassed look on his face, waved his hand and said, "Let's go now."
Haibara stood up sadly, and Conan quickly went to get his coat, but was suppressed by Kuroki Jin.
"You can only take her alone."
Conan felt aggrieved, Conan refused to accept it, and Conan turned to Haibara Ai for help.
Huihara Ai is powerless, and even if she is powerful, she has to pretend to be powerless.
She also didn't want Conan, the big light bulb, to follow him.
So under Conan's reluctant gaze, Kuroki Ren took Haihara Ai into the car and left Agasa's house.
The moment Conan closed the door, he realized: The reason for letting Kuroki Jin into the house just now was that their two children were not safe at home, and now that they were gone, he was left alone...
Is a child safe at home? !
Kuroki Jin is driving. There were very few vehicles and pedestrians on the streets at midnight, and he was walking in a relatively remote area, so he couldn't see anyone on the road.
Kuroki Jin did not go directly to the place where he last met Miyano Akemi. He first came to a dark villa, entered the courtyard and saw Komori standing there waiting for who knows how long.
"I'm sorry to disturb you so late..." Kuroki Jin felt a little sorry. He called people to get up and work overtime in the middle of the night... Under normal circumstances, he would have been assassinated by the workers.
"It's okay." Gu Sen remained stern, "Miss's matters are the most important." He lowered his head and looked at Haihara Ai, who was standing next to Kuro Muren.
"Come with me."
Gu Sen took them into the car and was silent all the way. Haiyuan Ai in the back row turned her head to look at Kuromuren with some uneasiness, and received a slight shake of her head from Kuromuren.
Haibara Ai:"……"
Okay, she believed him.
The drive took less than half an hour and they arrived at the former parts processing factory, but it was pitch dark because of the night.
This did not affect their entry, but Gu Sen turned off all the headlights and drove in safely in the dark relying on his memory.
Seeing this, Kuroki broke into a cold sweat.
Gu Sen still led the way, twisting and turning, leading the two of them to a solid passage, and stopped when the only way forward was left.
"I'll wait for you here."
"Thank you." Heimuren thanked him. The dark yellow light in front of him flickered, and he could vaguely see the door facing him.
Heimuren lowered his arms with his palms upward, indicating to Hui Yuan Ai to hold his hand.
Haihara Ai handed her hand to him. When she noticed that her left hand was surrounded by a warm palm, she realized what she had just done.
Hui Yuan Ai was nervous all the way. Seeing that she could see her sister at the last moment, her head had already stopped turning. She subconsciously followed Kuro Muren's outstretched hand. By the time she came back to her senses, it was already a done deal.
Simply, it doesn’t matter.
I've been carried around by him before, it's just holding hands, it's not a big deal.
Not to mention the lights in front are a bit scary.
