Morofuku Sora Ryo has never been someone who lets down his guard easily. Not to mention that when Hagiwara Chisou met him, he was still in his most childish period.
At first, Morobuchi Sora's image in front of Hagiwara Chisaku was extremely bad. After all, a child who would poke her pain at any time, behaved arrogantly and annoyingly in various ways, and never felt that she was wrong was completely different from her brother with a terrifyingly high emotional intelligence.
It's like an angel and a naughty child.
The reason why our relationship now is like that of siblings is that a lot of things happened in between.
It was also here that Hagiwara Chisuke inadvertently discovered Zhufu Kongliang's psychological problem of solitude and fear, and Zhufu Kongliang also began to consciously retract his sharp claws and slowly relax.
If you think about it carefully, what Chisou Hagiwara did a few years ago was just like taming a beast.
The beast still has its claws and fangs, but it will relax its vigilance towards someone.
Zhufu Kongliang's social circle is actually terribly small. Excluding Mihua and other new acquaintances who have a good impression of him because of his disguise, and excluding his family, Zhufu Kongliang's acquaintances are no more than one hand.
But because of this, Hagiwara Chisu's worry and anxiety at the moment really made her so nervous that she was about to cry.
And Zhufu Kongliang...well, it's worse than expected.
Even though he knew rationally that Saiki K. was right beside him, when he deliberately avoided opening the forum and really lost almost all the light in front of his eyes, Morofuku Sora's condition became terrible.
He couldn't rely on the forum every time, so this time he tried to solve it himself.
But even if he consciously let himself fall into darkness, the fear he felt could not be described in words. His brain tried to remain calm, but his super memory ability made him uncontrollably replay the pain from the past in his mind over and over again.
In fact, those things were not that bad. If the current Zhu Fukongliang were to experience them, his heart wouldn't even beat faster.
It's just that... the memories of hyperamnesia are, in a sense, a kind of superposition.
——Originally, you were just hit by the corner of the table, and once the pain passed, it was fine. But for patients with hyperamnesia, they are constantly repeating the pain, over and over again, and in the process, it seems that the pain has been magnified countless times.
Transforming this physical pain into a psychological breakdown is what people with hyperamnesia experience.
Zhufu Kongliang didn't know what other patients with hyperamnesia were like, because such cases were too rare and he had no way to compare them. But at least he was like this.
The psychological shadows brought about by childhood require many people to spend their entire lives to heal.
Zhu Fu Kong Liang never thought about recovery, he just wanted to overcome it.
The black-haired police officer closed his eyes. The blood that had already dried up seemed to be smudged by the cold sweat that he secreted unconsciously, and it felt like liquid was crawling down his forehead and eyebrows.
But Zhu Fu Kong Liang was in no mood to care. He tried hard to control his body trembling.
All this is in vain. If the shadow of the past could be resolved so easily, Zhu Fukongliang would not be afraid of the darkness until now. And the longer time goes by, the deeper this fear will become.
"Ding Dong Dong Dong ~ A small notification from Air Assistant." There was no light source in the dark room, but it suddenly rang in the ears of the two people present.
Morobuchi Sora had no way of understanding the meaning of his brother's voice, but Saiki Kusuo heard it clearly.
"Don't worry, I've temporarily blocked the source of the sound, so they won't hear it." Saiki Sosuke said with a smile, "The bomb will explode in four minutes, and you can't leave your brother now, right, Kusuo?"
"Sa——So let's take this opportunity to play a game, Kusuo!"
"What are you saying at this time?!" If it weren't for the cooldown of teleportation, Saiki Kusuo would have wanted to beat up his second brother right now.
"The game is very simple. I have prepared a Kusuo X in this room. It is equipped with a tracking system! Once it touches Kusuo, it will explode! That means I win!" Saiki Sosuke laughed and said, "Yes, Kusuo, you are right. This is a..."
"——A game of hide and seek!"
When hearing this key word, Zhuo Fu Kongliang, whose emotions had been unstable, became even more confused.
"Now, the game begins!" Saiki Sosuke seemed to be unaware of the problem. After saying this, he turned off the ability to monitor and block sound.
Except for the fact that there was a robot that looked almost exactly like Saiki K. in front of him, it seemed as if nothing had happened in this room.
Kusuo Saiki knows his second brother too well. Since they want to compete, Sosuke Saiki must have set countless restrictions for him.
In other words, he couldn't make any noise, couldn't cut off surveillance, and had to avoid being tracked.
Zhufu Kongliang: Should I say he is worthy of being the male lead of the comedy chapter?
Kusuo Saiki had a hard time hiding from the tracking robot in the small room under the malicious intentions of his second brother, and complained: "You are still thinking of complaining at this time!"
"Wait." Saiki K. was stunned: "You have recovered?"
Zhu Fukongliang slowed down his breathing and answered in his heart: "Didn't you notice?"
The police officer who was afraid of darkness smiled and said, "The red light on the bomb side has become much brighter."
As long as there is a light source, Zhu Fukongliang can control his fear.
Kusuo Saiki's eyes widened. Oops, he was distracted by Sorasuke's robot and didn't notice this!
——The bomb is about to explode!
While the Saiki brothers were playing hide-and-seek, Conan Edogawa was not idle.
Of course he was also worried about Morobuchi Sora, but Conan Edogawa didn't know that Morobuchi Sora was afraid of the dark. Naturally, after deciphering the Morse code, he believed in the reliable police officer and thought that the other party had a way!
In this situation, he could only follow Mr. Kong Liang's instructions and rescue the hostages first!
In order to prevent the kidnappers from discovering the problem and controlling the bomb to explode in advance, Conan Edogawa could not tear off the tape on Hagiwara Chisu's mouth. He concentrated on dismantling this complicated induction bomb, and had no time to discover the problem.
This is a linked induction type. Once this side is removed, Mr. Kong Liang's side will explode immediately.
But now there is only half a minute left in the countdown - there is no way Conan Edogawa will not take the last step.
This induction bomb has a special feature. If both sides are dismantled together, it will not explode because the other side is dismantled! He has been waiting for Mr. Kong Liang, who is monitoring the other side, to pass on the information.
Countdown 5...
4……
Conan Edogawa's face was covered in cold sweat, but he didn't dare to move. He had to wait until Mr. Kong Liang delivered the message!
"Sora Ryo-nii-san...!"
3……
2……
"Bang!" The sound of something falling to the ground was heard from the other side of the surveillance camera. Conan Edogawa's eyes lit up and he immediately cut off the last thread!
The bomb countdown stopped at the number "1", and before Conan Edogawa could breathe a sigh of relief, a violent explosion suddenly occurred on the other side of the mall! It even affected their location!
At the same time, the surveillance camera that had been monitoring the warehouse was suddenly destroyed and turned into a snow screen.
Conan Edogawa looked over in disbelief: "How is this possible!?"
Hagiwara Chisaku closed his eyes tightly, his face turned pale, and he seemed to have lost all his strength, and collapsed beside Mouri Ran.
——Nagano Metropolitan Police Department, the teacup in Zhufu Gaoming's hand suddenly broke at the handle, and the originally delicate porcelain cup fell to the ground and turned into pieces.
Zhu Fu Gaoming stared at the mess on the ground, pursed his lips slightly, and his heart beat faster at this moment.
...what happened?
The Rice Flower Mall - to be more precise, it was the Rice Flower Mall that was reduced to ruins due to the bomb.
Saiki Kusuo is a person with super powers, a person who can walk on the seabed and in space without the help of any props. Naturally, he is not afraid of the so-called bomb.
Even if it was a bomb made by Airsuke, there was currently no bomb that could harm him.
But Zhu Fu Kong Liang is a mortal, just an ordinary person, an ordinary human being who can catch a cold and get sick.
Even excessively loud sounds can cause temporary deafness.
So when the bomb exploded, Saiki Kusuo immediately teleported in front of Morifuku Sora--he used his body to firmly protect Morifuku Sora. He didn't leave directly because he still remembered his brother's plan.
Even this esper remembered to cover Morobu Sora's ears with his hands at this time. The tracking robot made by Sora took this opportunity to touch Saiki K., and when another bomb exploded, they had a duet.
The mall was reduced to ruins, and the bombs used by the air force were not inferior products like those used by the bomber.
There was not a single wound on his body. Even the gravel was completely blocked by Saiki Kusuo. Protected under him, Sora Ryo's blue cat eyes were quite calm.
Before Kusuo Robot X exploded, he said in the voice of Sorasuke: "I win!"
Morobuchi Sora, who never competed with his brothers, suddenly laughed at this moment. His laughter was so hearty that it seemed like a disguise - but Saiki K. could easily tell the difference.
Because people with super powers can hear the voice of the mind.
[Kongliang...Mom is playing hide-and-seek with you, just like always, you must behave...! ]
[Zhu Fukongliang, let's play a game, shall we? Hide and seek. Hide here! No one will find you! ]
"No, Kongsuke." The eldest brother of the Saiki family smiled particularly easily, and the darkness hidden in the deepest part of his heart seemed to be broken like a piece of glass in the corner.
"I won this game of hide-and-seek." Morobuchi Soryo gestured with his left hand that was holding Saiki Kusuo's wrist. He reached Saiki Kusuo faster than Kusuo X.
So he won the game of hide and seek.
"I caught you." Zhu Fu Kongliang raised his head, and the soft sunlight sprinkled on the wolfish black-haired police officer.
Kusuo Saiki was stunned for a moment, looking at his grabbed wrist, and instantly understood why Sorasuke chose this time to compete with him.
In order to plan to transform into "Morofushi Kagemitsu", Saiki Kusuo raised a faint smile that was not "Morofushi Kagemitsu" at all, but very "Saiki Kusuo".
'Well, you win.'
