Chapter 26 Tragedy Reflected in Water
"Hey, isn't this Conan and the kids?" a cheerful young man's voice came. "What are you doing here?"
Seeing Toru Amuro, Ai took a step back and retreated behind Conan. As a former codenamed member who betrayed the organization, Haibara Ai is naturally at a disadvantage whether facing "Bourbon" or "Amuro Toru". "Bourbon" will capture her and bring her back to the organization to make merit, while "Amuro Toru" will take her to the police for interrogation. Either way, it is not a good ending.
"Ah, Polo's big brother!" Yuantai let go of the wheelchair and rushed over happily. "Is there anything delicious? I'm so tired and hungry. I really want to eat something."
Hearing this, Mitsuhiko held his forehead in silence, "Yuanta, you just finished a croquette and two strawberry daifuku!" Seeing his friend pointing out the truth, Yuanta pouted unhappily, holding his stomach and muttering, "But I'm really hungry... Pushing a wheelchair is really tiring."
"Pushing a wheelchair? Oh, who is this?" Amuro Toru smiled friendly. His current identity was not familiar to Kazukage Yayoi. What, you said he was Bourbon? No, no, no, what did Bourbon's acquaintance have to do with him? Kazukage Yayoi, who had been repeatedly reminded by Kenbari, still knew that he should not call Bourbon at this time. He nodded lightly and replied: "Kazukage Yayoi, please give me your advice."
Conan made a veiled questioning gesture, and Amuro Toru nodded slightly in response. He was indeed notified by Gin to clean up a base for Kazukage Yayoi to live in as soon as possible, but he did not expect that the other party would pass Gin's assessment so quickly and be released. However, according to his understanding, the reason for being released may not be because Kazukage Yayoi passed the assessment, but because of the romantic scandal between Gin and Vodka, which made Gin unable to tolerate Kazukage Yayoi staying in the base any longer.
Seeing Toru Amuro, dressed as a waiter, taking the wheelchair and pushing him to the barber shop, Kazukage Yayoi couldn't help but ask in confusion: "Sir, don't you have to go to work?" After all, whether he was a waiter, a member of an organization, or some job that he currently didn't know about, the other party should not be so free.
"My name is Toru Amuro, just call me Amuro. I'm familiar with these kids, and it must be inconvenient for them to push their wheelchairs. The milk in the store is out of stock, and there's a supermarket next to the barber shop you want to go to, so I'm just passing by." After receiving the text message from Conan, Toru Amuro quickly found an excuse to leave the coffee shop.
Although Toru Amuro knew that the other party had abandoned his original identity when he knew the identity of "Wakage Yayoi", it was a pity to see that the other party called him "Wakage Yayoi". Conan worked hard and finally proved the innocence of "Anton Yayoi", but he still couldn't catch up with the other party who had already abandoned his original identity.
Although Toru Amuro did find out through a detailed investigation by the public security that there was nothing worth lingering on about the identity of "Anton Yayoi". Yayoi Ando's parents divorced when he was four years old. When he was twelve years old, his father took him away and died of illness. None of his father's other relatives were willing to adopt him, so he had to follow his unfamiliar mother. In Japan, single mothers have always been the group most likely to fall into poverty. His mother raised her daughter with great difficulty, and now she has a son. Although she couldn't stand him, he was still her own child after all. Yayoi Ando's mother could only add another part-time job on top of the original two jobs. And her sister, who was in her third year of high school, had to give up part of her studies and chose to work hard in her spare time.
Then, this unfortunate family encountered a second misfortune - the overworked mother lost consciousness while working and was caught in a machine and died. The factory compensated their family with a huge sum of money. Although she knew it was not Yayoi Ando's fault, Chimoto Tomomi, who could not face her brother, chose to take one-third of the compensation and leave her hometown. Yayoi Ando was raised by her elderly grandmother, but it is hard to say whether it was the grandmother who took care of Yayoi Ando or Yayoi Ando who took care of her grandmother. The elderly grandmother passed away before Yayoi Ando even reached adulthood.
After knowing that her grandmother had passed away, Tomomi Senmoto gradually came to terms with it over the years and began planning to bring her younger brother to her side to take care of him. But hemp ropes only break at the thinnest point, and misfortune only finds the unfortunate. Tomomi Senmoto died in a mudslide before she could reconcile with her long-lost brother. Yayoi Ando was unwilling to accept that all his relatives had left, and with his extremely unstable mental state, he turned to studying religion. Taking this opportunity, he met Tomomi Senmoto's original graduate supervisor, Shinzo Endo. Then, by chance, he discovered the truth of the year and decided to avenge his sister.
Anyone who has seen Ando Yayoi's revenge on Endo Shinzo must say that they understand and appreciate it, and Amuro Toru is no exception. But as for the others, the public security investigation has been going on for a long time, but they have not found out what other cases Ando Yayoi is related to besides this case. Although it seems unlikely, Amuro Toru even thought about whether Gin had misunderstood, such an outrageous situation.
But no matter what, Kazukage Yayoi's performance in the base was very negative, and she was in a completely weak and passive position, and she was even almost killed by Gin at one point. Amuro Toru was still reluctantly willing to trust Kazukage Yayoi, and he would not put Kazukage Yayoi on the list of people who must be eliminated until the other party actually did something illegal.
"Okay, this is the barber shop. Yayoi, go in. Kids, I'll take you to buy food. Genta, are you hungry?" Amuro Toru has confirmed from the brief contact that Kazue Yayoi is not carrying any weapons. Moreover, the other party is not only not good at fighting, but also seriously injured. He does not need to be on guard against him all the time. Just find a public security officer to follow him. As for Conan, who is very curious, Amuro Toru will definitely not leave him alone with Kazue Yayoi.
"Great! Big brother Polo, I want eel rice!" Yuantai's eyes lit up, and he pulled Conan and Mitsuhiko forward: "Eel rice, eel rice, delicious eel rice."
"Eh? Eh? Genta?" Conan originally wanted to go to the barber shop together, but now he was forced to go to the supermarket. Amuro Toru watched with a smile as things developed as he expected. Then, he unexpectedly received a text message from Kazukage Yayoi, which was a shopping logistics information. He clicked it and saw that he bought a huge Siamese cat pillow.
[Thank you for tidying up the house. I want to send you a gift. Can you fill in the address? ]
Why a Siamese cat or a pillow?
Amuro Toru opened the previous text message with Kazue Yayoi. Gift? What gift? Amuro Toru vaguely remembered that he seemed to have put a cat doll that fell on the ground on the paper. Was that a Siamese cat? Could it be that Kazue Yayoi saw that and misunderstood? However, Amuro Toru did not tell the truth. Instead, he admitted the matter:
[Did you see the doll? I hope it can give you a sense of security]
After all, I think it looks like me.
【How do you like it? 】
He Jing Yayoi silently looked at the three consecutive text messages sent by Bourbon. His experience in the past few days of novels told him that Bourbon seemed to be flirting with him, but why? He thought that he did not express any actions to develop a romantic relationship. However, he fully understood human courtship behavior, just like he understood gin and vodka.
【like】
After he sent the text message, he looked at Amuro Toru who was looking back at him with a loving and caring look. Spring is here, and it is the season of JP again. He understands.
Toru Amuro:......
Your expression doesn't look like you like it at all. After failing to flirt with someone and being despised, Toru Amuro gave an awkward but polite smile. Turning his head, Toru Amuro's eyes darkened. In that case, let's fill in the coffee shop as the delivery address.
Conan sensed the subtle atmosphere between them, and saw Toru Amuro typing with a smirk. Toru Amuro noticed Conan's gaze, put down his phone, and gave him a meaningful smile, which frightened Conan so much that he couldn't help shrinking his neck.
"Conan~Did you see anything?"
Conan smiled awkwardly, his eyes wandering, "I didn't see anything."
Toru Amuro squatted down with a fake smile and warned, "It's good to be curious, but don't be too curious, Conan-kun." As he said that, he gently put the bug on his clothes back into Conan's palm.
"Haha, haha." Conan laughed awkwardly twice, and couldn't think of the next sentence to make up for it for a long time. He could only run away. "I, I'm going to play football with my classmates. Bye, Mr. Amuro!"
Conan didn't think about what happened with Jing Yayoi at all, and played football happily for nearly two hours. When they finished playing football, they went home contentedly. On the way, he saw a van parked in front of the Air City store, with several people standing next to the van.
A man in a plastic apron was carrying cartons from a flatbed trailer into a small van. Two middle-aged women were standing next to the door, chatting. One was older and plump, the other was younger and slender. Next to them was Yayoi Kazukage, who looked speechless and devastated.
After all, he had been nagging by these two aunts for a whole hour. He had not yet completed his identity, so he was simply using all his brainpower to make up stories. He worked so hard and exhausted himself that he felt that his brain power had never been used before. If he was "An Dong Yayoi", he could still keep silent and pretend to be dumb. But now he is "Wakage Yayoi", a gentle and kind young man with a tragic life but unyielding self-improvement. His character does not allow him to keep silent.
The two aunts not only asked him to describe the situation word by word so that they could help him analyze it. They even asked him to give the phone number of his "distant relative" and said they would help him scold the irresponsible "distant relative". The desperate Kazukage Yayoi almost performed a medical miracle for the two aunts, and stood up and ran away with the wheelchair. Fortunately, the perceptive Master Morita stopped the two aunts from asking questions in time and saved Kazukage Yayoi from danger.
"Brother Yayoi, why are you still here?" Conan ran up and looked at him in confusion.
The two women chatting nearby stopped talking when they saw Conan. The older woman replied lovingly, "Master Morita sent us to Wuzhang River to watch the moon. The child has difficulty walking, so we will also take him home on the way."
"I see" Seeing nothing happened, Conan wanted to go home, but seeing that Kazukage Yayoi's expression was a little strange, he asked: "Brother Yayoi, what's wrong?"
After Kazukage Yayoi frowned and looked at the van, Conan followed his gaze. The van was not big, it was a seven-seater van. Because Master Morita put four large cartons, the seats in the last row were vacated, leaving only four seats. Seeing Conan looking over, Master Morita took out a ready-made red paper lantern from the cartons and walked over, "Little boy, what's wrong? Are you lost?"
Conan shook his head: "No, I just came to say hello to Brother Yayoi."
Master Morita smiled and patted Conan's head. "You two know each other, but unfortunately there is no room in the car, so I can't take you back. How about this, I'll give you a lantern to play with."
"Thank you, uncle." Although Conan didn't like this, it was the other party's good intention after all, and it was pretty good to hang it at the door of the detective agency. "Then Yayoi brother, I'll take my leave first?"
Kazukage Yayoi looked at Conan hesitantly, but in the end said nothing.
Conan tilted his head and looked at Kazukage Yayoi in confusion, but seeing that the other party really had no intention of saying anything, he waved goodbye to everyone.
