Chapter 15

"I want you to help me with something."

The man with long silver hair sat upright on a swivel chair, his body slightly leaning back, but most of his body was submerged in darkness.

"You should know that I can't lurk around my brother in my current physical condition... If I'm not mistaken, Ezuka Hideki must have led him to another place."

"You have to stay by his side and know everything about my brother on my behalf. I ask you to send me messages regularly, and I will also create a background profile for you and change your appearance."

"Of course, as long as you dare to reveal your identity... you should know the result."

…

It was still the familiar commanding tone, but the content of the command was different this time.

Grentz rarely allowed himself to be with his former contemporaries, but this was the only time Grentz relaxed his control over him.

"Take this and you will become a child." Yuma Tsujimoto gave him a capsule with a playful tone.

"You have no choice. You can do whatever you want."

"What is this for?" asked Zhufu Jingguang.

"This is a drug developed by the organization. After taking it, your body will become smaller." Grenzjiu said casually.

Although it was not any kind of tissue medicine at all, it was just a capsule with some sugar pill powder.

Yuma Tsujimoto's skill [Role Playing] can be used on other people. Changing a face is not a big problem, but being able to make a person's body smaller is hard to explain.

Therefore, it is not a big problem for him to directly use the organization's drug to take the blame. Even if he fails, he can still play the role of a villain like Gin, who wanted to kill Morobushi Kagemitsu but fed him the drug and didn't expect that the opponent escaped. At the same time, he can also increase his black side value.

"What? You don't dare to eat?" Seeing Zhufu Jingguang's frozen figure, Grencijiu laughed.

"Do you want to disobey my orders?"

"Of course not."

Sensing the sense of oppression coming from the other party, Morobushi Kagemitsu quickly obeyed the other party.

After all, he didn't have much choice, did he?

…

The high fever caused by the drug made him almost faint. He didn't know what the Grenz wine had done, and when he woke up, he found himself lying in a bed in the hospital.

The sun shines through the glass window onto him, the curtains flutter in the breeze, and occasionally a bird chirps, floating in the air for a while before slowly sinking into the green shade outside the window.

This feeling of security hasn't appeared for a long time.

[When you wake up, remember to report your news to me regularly.]

The voice echoing in his mind gave Morofushi Jingguang a startle, and he quickly woke up.

...Wait a minute, how did the sound reach his ears? Could it be the organization's technology again?

[You can think of it this way: I can explore your mind, so you'd better not think of anything weird for me.]

Skill set [Empathy], can empathize with a designated person and share the same feelings. The person being empathized must completely obey the orders of the person being empathized, otherwise the empathy will fail.

However, the skill cannot be used continuously and it also consumes a certain amount of SAN value, so Yuma Tsujimoto may not be online all the time.

[I understand.] Morobushi Kagemitsu replied, [So I was sent to the hospital by the police officer involved?]

[You can think of it this way, now you are an abandoned child in an orphanage, just try to get close to him and make him stay by your side.]

…

It seems that he is not capable of doing such a shameful thing.

But since it was an order, he could only do it.

Zhufu Jingguang sat up with difficulty. He looked at his hands that had become completely smaller and felt a mixed feeling for a moment.

The feeling of becoming a child is quite subtle...

"Ah, are you awake?"

The door was pushed open at this moment, and Morofushi Kagemitsu looked nervously at the person coming in the door - it was indeed Tsujimoto Shigetsu, but he looked a little dishevelled, with the ends of his hair still wet as on rainy days, and dark circles under his eyes. His camel-colored coat was covered with wet stains, and it seemed that he had not slept all night.

Although he had heard about Tsujimoto's deeds, Morofushi Kagemitsu also knew that he was a good policeman who was very dedicated and responsible.

That was the existence he admired the most and longed for the most.

It's not surprising that such a light would be followed by people, right?

"Hello?"

Morofushi Jingguang even felt a little uncomfortable with his own voice being too childish.

"Be good, don't move."

The gentle hand rubbed his head twice, as if to comfort him.

"Do you remember how you got lost?"

Good, here comes the key point.

If I remember correctly, according to Yuma Tsujimoto's request, he had to perform a scene here.

"I...I forgot."

The little boy with black hair and blue eyes raised his head and looked at him blankly, tears falling down his cheeks.

"I'm sorry, big brother... I don't even remember..."

It's really shameful.

If it wasn't for the compulsion to collapse, Morofu Jingguang would have wanted to escape from this world at the speed of light.

"I understand. If you can't remember, forget it."

The silver-haired man was stunned for a moment, then slowly squatted down. His hands tightly grasped his wrists, and the blue eyes that were very similar to Grenz's, but not completely the same, were also staring at him, giving him an incomparable sense of security.

"Don't be afraid. I will help you investigate the situation. Just stay in the hospital for a while, and I will take care of the rest."

The look that Shigeto Tsujimoto gave him was very strange, which made Morofushi Kagemitsu a little uneasy.

Rather... the way he looked at him, it was like seeing a friend whom he hadn't seen for a long time.

But he had never met the other person before, how could he have such an expression???

…

However, Morofushi Kagemitsu did not know at this moment that Tsujimoto Shigeto was about to explode.

The explosive point is of course the child he picked up, but who is that child... The barrage is even more explosive than him.

【Fuck, fuck, fuck!!! Who is this! Who the hell is this? ? 】

[Morobushi Kagemitsu? Is that you, Morobushi Kagemitsu? ? ]

[Black hair and blue eyes! And such clear big eyes! Isn’t this Lily Morobushi Kagemitsu!!]

[Wait a minute, isn't Morobushi Kagemitsu already dead? I remember he committed suicide, with a gunshot to his heart... How could he still be alive?]

[I mean, is it possible that this person is actually Morobushi Kagemitsu's cousin or relative?]

[It's unlikely, right? Didn't this kid say he lost his memory? Could it be that he was fed drug A like Conan and Ai and shrank? ? ]

[But why did the shrinkage occur only now? Isn't this strange? ]

[I also find this very strange. Or is this child cloned by Morobushi Kagemitsu?]

[Help! ! If Toruko saw this child, she would be shocked! ! ]

[Oh my Toruko, my Hiro...]

…

All the scenery?

Shigeto Tsujimoto still remembers the setting of Morobushi Kagemitsu, who seemed to be Toru Amuro, a childhood friend of Rei Furuya, and also a character who died early in the plot.

But shouldn't Morobushi Kagemitsu be dead? Why is he still alive?

Could it be that Yu Zhen is behind this again? ?

He immediately pressed the button of his hearing aid and tried to call Yuma Tsujimoto. Soon, Yuma Tsujimoto's lazy voice sounded from the other end of the phone.

Shigeto Tsujimoto asked the question almost impatiently.

"Yuuma! Morofushi Kagemitsu he..."

"Morobushi Kagemitsu is dead."

Yuma Tsujimoto seemed to know what he wanted to say and answered it in advance.

"Are you serious?" Tsujimoto Shigetsu took a breath of cold air.

"Who is that kid I picked up last night? He really looks like Morobushi Kagemitsu!"

"Did you make a mistake?" Tsujimoto Yuma was a little confused.

"Don't all the characters in Conan have similar faces? Just black hair and blue eyes. Don't just say it's Morobushi Kagemitsu when you see a child."

Tsujimoto: …

I don't believe you!!!

"Okay, I understand." Shigetto Tsujimoto said he understood.

"You really don't want other people to know this, right? I won't tell anyone else that he is Morobushi Kagemitsu."

"Hey, I told you it's not—"

"It's just that if you want to help me, you don't have to be so direct."

Shigetsu Tsujimoto lowered his eyes, his expression somewhat complicated.

"You also have to protect yourself and don't get hurt again. I will be sad."

“…”

Shigeto Tsujimoto actually knew very well what the other party wanted to do.

Although it is not 100% certain, if Morobushi Kagemitsu passes through his hands and returns to the front of the barrage again, then his red team's popularity value will be greatly improved.

What Yuma Tsujimoto did was simply pushing him to a higher position.

But...what about him?

What happened to him?

Shigeto Tsujimoto was very worried, but Yuma never revealed his own affairs. In addition, he did not have much direct connection with the winery, so it was difficult for Shigeto Tsujimoto to investigate.

The result is a stalemate.

"You think too much, brother."

Yuma Tsujimoto's voice is very soft.

"Have a good rest and don't stay up late."

"Wait a moment--"

Beep...beep...

As a result, the call was hung up directly.

Shigetsu Tsujimoto put down his hands helplessly, feeling a little tired inside.

But what should we do with the child who is suspected to be Morobushi Kagemitsu?

He still had to take leave to investigate the child, but the child would definitely need someone to take care of him. Jinpei Matsuda was currently working on a case and was very busy, so he probably didn't have time to take over this.

So...how about going to find Toru Amuro?

Although Shigeto Tsujimoto had no intention of telling Toru Amuro that Morobushi Kagemitsu was still alive, it would not necessarily be a bad thing if Toru Amuro were to take care of the child temporarily in some other way.

At the very least, if this kid is really Morobushi Kagemitsu, he must want to get close to his friends, right?

What's more, if he really wants to adopt this child, Lily Morofushi will meet Toru Amuro sooner or later, and then it will be really difficult to explain.

It is better to make it clear from the beginning to reduce suspicion to a greater extent.

So, Shigeto Tsujimoto looked at the adoption agreement on the table and fell into deep thought.

"This child was originally a lost child from the [Charity Ambassadors], and since Officer Tsujimoto wants to take over the adoption, it is not impossible for us to agree."

The man named Daigo Ueda who rushed to the hospital was quite open-minded. He smiled and talked to Shigeto Tsujimoto about the incident. After confirming his identity, he directly agreed to Shigeto Tsujimoto's adoption plan.

"The child's name is Hashima Hiroki, and he is a very shy and introverted child. It is a great fortune for the child to be adopted by such an outstanding person as Officer Tsujimoto."

"Hiroki..."

The corners of Shigetsu Tsujimoto's mouth twitched, and he didn't know what to say for a moment.

So why is the pronunciation also Hiro? ? Could this hint be any more obvious? ?

"Is there any problem?" Daigo Ueda asked in confusion.

"No...thank you for your understanding." Tsujimoto Shigetsu choked for a long time, but finally answered politely.

In the end, I still had to go through a lot of complicated adoption procedures.

At least Tsujimoto Yuma had ulterior motives in throwing Morobushi Kagemitsu to him. He couldn't just throw Morobushi Kagemitsu to someone else for adoption, and he couldn't let others know his identity so quickly.

And... judging from the look in Morofushi Kagemitsu's eyes, he must have been threatened by Tsujimoto Yuuma, right? That's why he didn't dare to reveal his identity.

Shigetsu Tsujimoto sighed deeply, feeling exhausted both physically and mentally.

When he returned to the hospital exhausted, he saw Toru Amuro taking care of Morobushi Kagemitsu. Perhaps because his friend was by his side, Kagemitsu felt at ease when he fell asleep.

I don't know what he is thinking now.

"Thank you for your hard work, Amuro-kun." Tsujimoto Shigetsu sat down on the chair tiredly.

"I just adopted this child, and I'm so busy that I don't have much time to take care of him today. Thank you for taking care of him all day."

"It's okay. I never thought that Officer Tsujimoto would adopt a child." Amuro Toru smiled.

"Since he escaped from the Charity Ambassadors Organization, it must be because he didn't want to stay there, right?" Tsujimoto Shigetsu said.

"I have no right to comment on this organization, but this child is quite pitiful, and I have the money to raise a child, so I just adopted him."

"What's his name?" Amuro Toru asked suddenly.

"Hongshu."

Shigeto Tsujimoto finally managed to say the name with great difficulty.

"Hashima Hiroki, this is his name, and the adoption information is also here..."

He handed the information to Amuro Toru, feeling a little nervous.

"Hiroki?"

The blond young man's eyes seemed to move, and a visible smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

“That’s a pretty good name.”

Shigeto Tsujimoto and Keimitsu Morofushi, who was lying on the bed pretending to be asleep, both froze instantly.

What does this sentence mean? Did he find out?

No, that's impossible. Without any evidence, it is impossible for Toru Amuro to discover the truth.

What's more, Yuma actually made some changes to Morobushi Kagemitsu's face. As for why the bullet screen viewers mistook him for the same one at first glance... I can only say that 73's drawing style is too similar. After all, he is the one who can draw Kudo Shinichi and Kuroba Kaito as the same face, so it is not surprising that the bullet screen viewers mistook him for the same one.

"Then I'll go back first. If you need me in the future, Officer Tsujimoto can come to me." Amuro Toru slowly stood up.

"Okay! Thank you for your hard work!" Shigetto Tsujimoto finally breathed a sigh of relief.

It seems that Toru Amuro didn't notice. After all, no matter how outrageous Morobushi Kagemitsu was, he shouldn't have been adopted from the Charity Ambassador Organization.

This document cannot be forged.

"But Officer Tsujimoto, remember to get some rest too," Amuro Toru reminded him.

"You haven't recovered from your injuries yet, and now you're staying up all night. Officer Matsuda will be angry again if he finds out."

"I will definitely pay attention! But don't worry, Officer Matsuda definitely can't beat me." Shigetto Tsujimoto nodded seriously.

"Officer Tsujimoto, you've missed the point again..."

…

All in all, Toru Amuro must have kept this a secret.

So the question is, what should he do with Morobushi Kagemitsu next? ?
