"Chiho!"
Koizumi Ryuji rushed out from behind the crowd and ran under the tree:
"Why are you here?"
"I heard you were going to be arrested, so I came to see you..."
The little girl held the tree with one hand and grabbed Ryuji Koizumi's clothes with the other.
"who is she?"
Seeing this, Sakaki Makoto couldn't help but ask.
"Her name is Omori Chiho, and she's a student in Class 5-C."
The old principal obviously knew her too:
"She has a very good relationship with Koizumi Ryuji and often hangs out with him."
"Doesn't Ryuji Koizumi have social phobia?"
"That's true, but..."
With a kind look in his eyes, the old principal said with a smile:
"Jiho is the only one who can make him open up and let down his guard."
"Don't people say that children's eyes are the purest?"
"Chiho must have impressed Koizumi Ryuji."
It is not easy for people with social phobia to interact with other people like normal people.
This also makes the old principal very happy.
It would be great if Ryuji Koizumi could completely get out of the shadow through this.
After a few words, Ryuji Koizumi came back with Chiho.
"headmaster..."
Koizumi Ryuji said nervously:
"Chiho said that he wanted to see the body..."
"Um?"
The old principal was stunned and flatly refused:
"no!"
"Isn't this nonsense?!"
"How can we let children see such a cruel scene?"
Okay...
It turns out that Conan is no longer a child in your eyes...
Sakaki scolded.
As expected, the way Kudo behaves makes it hard for people to regard him as a child...
Sometimes, being too precocious is not necessarily a good thing.
Noticing Sakaki Makoto's gaze, Chiho raised her head and looked into his eyes.
Her big watery eyes are full of curiosity about the unknown.
But after looking at each other for a while, she withdrew her gaze and hid behind Koizumi Ryuji, timidly and without saying a word.
"......"
Goto Risa glanced at Chiho and suddenly said:
"Is the child okay?"
"No, it's okay..."
Koizumi Ryuji bowed his head and replied:
"sorry..."
"If an apology worked, I wouldn't be standing here."
Lit up a long, thin cigarette, Goto Risa said something with a disdainful tone, as if hinting at something.
Such a strange conversation actually attracted Sakaki Makoto's attention.
What exactly happened between Koizumi Ryuji and Goto Risa back then?
Why did Ryuji Koizumi feel guilty when facing Risa Goto?
Suddenly, Chiho let go of the little hand that was holding Ryuji Koizumi's clothes and ran into the gymnasium.
This scene happened too suddenly. Everyone came to their senses and hurriedly chased after him.
Her legs ran as fast as she could, passing the remaining police officers and coming straight to the collapsed podium.
Looking at the body that was burned to carbon black, she clenched her fists and a trace of fear flashed in her eyes.
"ah..."
Two hands reached out from behind and picked her up.
“It’s too early for children to watch this.”
Sakaki Makoto, who had already put out his cigarette, said softly:
"Chiho, that's your name, right?"
"Um..."
Chiho blinked, and suddenly reached out to take off Sakaki Makoto's sunglasses:
"Brother, you look familiar...why are you wearing sunglasses?"
"Because...the sun is very bright and will burn me."
Sakaki Makoto freed one hand and put the sunglasses on her face.
But how can she wear such big sunglasses with her small face?
Zhihui could only hold on to his sunglasses with both hands to prevent them from falling.
Sakaki Makoto laughed, and she laughed too.
"Can you tell me, brother, why do you want to see Ota Kunimatsu's body?"
Makoto Sakaki said:
"Do you like this health teacher very much?"
"No!"
Zhihui suddenly struggled:
"I don't like him, not at all!"
After jumping out of Sakaki Makoto's arms, she hid behind Koizumi Ryuji again, but still held on to her sunglasses.
Sakaki Makoto narrowed his eyes and saw some clues.
If Chiho didn't come to see Ota Kunimatsu because she liked him, then...
It should be the pure curiosity of a child.
But curious...
Do not mix anger and hatred into your words.
It seems...
The key to solving the case has been found.
As long as we know what Ota Kunimatsu has done, we can do reverse reasoning and get to the bottom of it.
Thinking of this, Sakaki Cheng squatted down, took out the fruit candy he always kept from his pocket, and said earnestly:
"Jiho, do you like candy?"
Zhisui immediately showed an interested look and wanted to reach out to take it, but he didn't dare to.
Perhaps he saw through Sakaki Makoto's motive, Koizumi Ryuji took a step across and blocked his sight:
"Sakaki, Mr. Sakaki Makoto, Chiho...she is very shy, don't scare her!"
This surprised Sakaki Makoto.
A patient with severe social phobia actually takes the initiative to talk to others?
How much courage does it take to do this...
Sakaki Makoto stood up and looked at him calmly.
Ryuji Koizumi, who has always been taciturn, now has a firm look in his eyes and shows no intention of backing down.
"Mr. Koizumi, the dispute between you and Ota Kunimatsu was because of Chiho, right?"
With a grin, Sakaki Makoto put his hand on his shoulder, leaving him nowhere to hide, and said softly:
"What would a health teacher do to Chiho?"
