Chapter 9
"Autumn outing, autumn outing, yeah yeah yeah!"
Ayumi led Genta and his group in front, Conan followed behind with half-moon eyes and complained to Haibara Ai: "So, why do you have to agree like a child?"
"You are also a child now." Haibara Ai glanced at him.
Conan was choked, and turned to look at Akabane Higen who was chatting with Mao Li Ran behind: "And that idiot too, how come he is also like a child."
Haibara Ai didn't say anything, but just glanced at Akabane Higen, thinking, this is not a child, this person is more like a child than you.
"Conan, Ai, you are so slow - hurry up!"
"I'm coming."
"That's great." Mao Li Ran took the things out of the bag and placed them on the grass.
Akabane Higen took over her work with a smile: "Yeah, it's a pity Shinichi is not here."
He deliberately spoke a little loudly, just enough for a little detective to hear it, which earned him an angry and guilty look.
"Shinichi..." Ran Mouri was lost for a moment, but soon recovered, "It doesn't matter, Shinichi also has his own things to do, I will wait for him to come back."
"..."
Akabane Higen smiled at her, and just wanted to say something, she heard a scream from Conan, and the two of them looked over immediately. Conan ran over with an anxious look on his face: "Sister Xiaolan, Ayumi is missing!"
"What?!"
Akabane Higen also shouted in surprise, and soon said: "Xiaolan, you look after these children, I'll go find her nearby."
"Don't worry, she must have lost her way nearby." Looking at her worried face, Akabane Higen comforted her again.
"Brother Higen, I'll go with you!" Conan shouted.
"No, you guys wait here for me, don't run around, do you hear me, Conan?"
Conan opened his mouth, jumping anxiously, but still agreed reluctantly.
On the other side of the woods——
"Hey, White Hair, long time no see."
The young man in a light purple shirt suddenly shouted.
The man he called White Hair raised his head with an unhappy look on his face and looked at the young man sitting on the tree, "Are you looking for death?"
"I should say that, right?"
The young man jumped down from the tree, "Fight?" "
Come on!"
Moscato raised his eyebrows, "I will definitely beat you up today."
"Don't be so confident."
The young man with dark purple hair snorted coldly, "I will let my cursed spirit show mercy."
The war was about to break out.
Moscato was upset. He finally moved into the cat's house, and before he could spend much time with the cat, Gin, that bastard, assigned him many tasks, leaving him no time to spend with the cat.
He was just looking for someone to vent his anger on, and now someone came to his door.
He narrowed his eyes: "How could those old men be willing to let you out?"
Matsumoto Tetsu summoned a few first-level cursed spirits and smiled: "Can they stop me?"
"It just so happened that those two people went abroad on a mission."
Oh, I see, they ran away secretly, right?
"Then fight,"
Moscato's fingertips also had jumping flames, "I'm curious if you have made any progress these days."
Matsumoto Tetsu didn't say anything, and the first-level cursed spirits had already rushed up.
Every time they meet, they have to fight. This also has to do with their first meeting.
As a sorcerer, a cursed spirit operator who can barely fight the strongest in the sorcery world, Matsumoto Tetsu actually doesn't like ordinary people.
But Moscato is an exception. Although they fight almost every time they meet, to be honest, he doesn't dislike Moscato very much.
The first time he met Moscato was in Italy. At that time, he had just finished a mission and passed by a pier. He saw Moscato walking out of a flame with a wanton and crazy smile in his eyes, very cool.
At first sight, he confirmed that this person was a lunatic.
Facts have proved that Moscato is really crazy.
Even though the container had been almost burned, he still seemed dissatisfied. He looked at the other boxes that seemed to be his mission, and seemed to think for a while. Then he smiled and whispered, "Oops, Gin, I'm sorry, I accidentally burned the mission~"
Then a streak of fire came out from his fingertips, and the boxes started to burn. The dock was suddenly ablaze, and the workers were terrified and cursed. Only Moscato stood alone in the fire, with a wanton and ostentatious smile on his lips, and the flames around him did not hurt him at all.
At that time, Matsumoto Tetsu became very curious about this man. He manipulated the cursed spirit to pull the man to another deserted pier. Seeing that Moscato just glanced at him casually and sat on the ground, he asked, "Don't you ask me why I saved you?"
Moscato yawned lazily: "Oh, thank you."
Matsumoto Tetsu choked and continued, "Is that your technique? Or a special ability?"
"It should be a special ability. You don't have any cursed power."
"Hey, hey, you look very powerful. Do you want to fight?"
...
After getting along with the other white-haired guy for a long time, Matsumoto Tetsu was also somewhat influenced by his shamelessness (shamelessness),
and then his series of shameless remarks successfully angered Moscato, and the two started fighting.
Of course, the match ended with Moscato's defeat. After all, Moscato had just completed a great achievement (specifically setting fire to the container) and his energy was consumed very quickly. He was obviously at a disadvantage in the fight.
But Matsumoto Tetsu was different. Although he won, he was not very satisfied, but he became more interested in Moscato.
So, he often went to Italy to find Moscato (to fight). The two became more and more familiar with each other because of the fight. Matsumoto Tetsu learned that Moscato worked in a winery, and Moscato also found out that Matsumoto Tetsu was a teacher at Tokyo Jujutsu High School and had once thought of killing ordinary people.
Although this idea had been killed by his two peers, Matsumoto Tetsu was still ridiculed by Moscato for a long time because of this, so the two of them had several fights again (Matsumoto Tetsu: exchanging feelings).
It was not until later that Matsumoto Tetsu attacked the high-level officials of the curse world because of Yuji Itadori's incident and was sentenced to death with a reprieve. He was monitored by Gojo Satoru and Kaguru Takeshi at the high school, and they stopped meeting each other.
But...
"I thought you were dead." Moscato dodged the curse spirit that attacked from behind and said with regret.
"I'm really embarrassed that I'm still alive?" Matsumoto Tetsu raised his eyebrows and controlled the curse spirit to attack Moscato again.
"Of course not, I'm still very happy."
"Heh." He was answered with a cold single voice.
Then the two people who had temporarily separated continued to fight again.
This was the chaotic scene that Akabane Higen saw when he just arrived here. Seeing the two people stop and look at him, he was silent for a while, "I'm passing by, you continue."
Matsumoto Tetsu gave him a gentle smile: "Little boy, why did you run here?"
Akabane Higen: ...
For a moment, I didn't know whether to complain that he was not a child or to tell him that he was looking for someone.
There were too many complaints and I didn't know where to start.
"Are you looking for me, little Higen?"
Moscato's eyes were bright, with a gentle smile on the corners of his lips, which attracted Matsumoto Tetsu's surprised gaze.
"No." Akabane Higen replied indifferently, "I'm here to look for a little girl. She just got lost here. Have you seen her?"
"Oh," Moscato's smile turned cold when he heard that she wasn't here to look for him, "No."
"I can help find her." Matsumoto Tetsu raised his hand and smiled, ignoring Moscato's death-like gaze.
He was still very curious about the person who could make a madman like Moscato become like this.
"Ah... thank you." Akabane Higen nodded at him.
The two finally found the person at the bottom of a small slope in the woods, but because of this little episode, the autumn outing ended early.
Matsumoto Tetsu finally got Akabane Higen's contact information. Although he was grabbed by Moscato and had a fight on his way back, it was worth it.
