Chapter 70 "Can you change your voice?"
…
[From now on, you will be the one to monitor him, Magno.]
You know what to do.
——Gin】
"What's wrong, Kazuki?" Mao Lilan noticed the black-haired boy who was lagging behind and asked with concern: "Are you worried about the homework for the practical class?"
"A little bit." Guan Zehexi put away his phone and caught up with the three people.
"There's no need to worry about that!" Mao Lilan said with a smile, "Dr. Agasa who lives next door to the Arata family is a very powerful inventor. We just need to ask him for advice and we can get the job done quickly."
Suzuki Sonoko echoed: "That's right! Are you free tonight? Why don't we go there together now? Finish it early and be liberated early!"
Sekizawa Kazuki glanced at Kudo Shinichi secretly. His eyes were covered by his black hair. Only his voice and temperament were as calm and gentle as before: "I have something to do today too."
Kudo Shinichi glanced at him and said, "Is there something wrong, or are you avoiding me?"
"Hiding from you?" Suzuki Sonoko narrowed her eyes and looked dangerous: "Shinichi! Tell me, what did you do? Why did you bully a new classmate?"
"..." Kudo Shinban's half-moon eyes: "What can I do?"
Who knew that the next second, even Mao Lilan looked at him, and asked doubtfully: "Really?"
"...Xiaolan." Kudo Shinichi was incredulous: "How long have you known this guy? Even you suspect that I bullied him! Don't you know how fast he reacts! How could I possibly bully him!"
"It's so anxious! You're feeling guilty!" Suzuki Sonoko shouted.
Mao Lilan became more suspicious: "Wa Xi is quick to react, but he has a gentle personality. Shinichi, don't do anything excessive."
Kudo Shinichi: “…”
Although I know that both of them were joking, I am still speechless.
"My deskmate didn't bully me."
An extremely affirmative voice sounded at this moment.
Mao Lilan couldn't help laughing, while Suzuki Sonoko shouted in dissatisfaction: "Why do you and the Kudo family have the best relationship with Kazuki?"
Kudo Shinichi turned around and saw the boy's obsidian eyes fixed on him.
The emotions there were calm and shallow, and nothing could be seen, but Kudo Shinichi always felt that the other person seemed to be looking through him at someone else at this moment.
However...
None of this matters.
He smiled and said, "Hexi, are you really the best person to me?"
The other party blinked and said in a much quieter voice: "Yeah."
"Then I invite you to go to Dr. Agasa's house to do practical work. Are you going to refuse?" Kudo Shinichi took two steps back and stood next to Sekizawa Kazuki.
Guan Zehexi didn't say anything and seemed to be stuck in a dilemma.
No one knew whether he was struggling with whether to agree or how to refuse.
"If you don't have anything urgent to do, it's good to go with us today." Mao Lilan said, "Otherwise, we will finish today and we won't be able to go together next time."
"Yes, yes! I want to do it with you!" Suzuki Sonoko said enthusiastically.
Faced with the invitations from his three friends, the boy was a little overwhelmed. He subconsciously wanted to refuse, but when he looked up, he saw three pairs of eyes staring at him, and the answer passed through his brain first and he said it out:
"good."
After he finished speaking, he was stunned for a moment, and wanted to refuse in a hurry, but before he could say anything, the bag in his hand was pulled away by the person next to him.
"?" He looked over blankly.
Kudo Shinichi raised his schoolbag and said, "I'll hold it for you."
As he spoke, he walked forward.
"!" Sekizawa Kazuki was about to say something, but was interrupted by Suzuki Sonoko's cheers: "Great!"
"……"he.
"Let's go." Mao Lilan narrowed her eyes and smiled brightly.
Guan Ze and Xi Deng paused for two seconds and nodded slowly: "Yeah."
The boy, who was in a conflicted mood and wanted to go but was afraid of something, did not notice that the three people in front of him looked at each other. There was a tacit understanding between the three of them that only the three of them understood.
——But Miyagawa Ryo is clear.
However, his original purpose was to let Kudo Shinichi notice his abnormality and investigate him, so this result was exactly what he wanted.
At this moment, Miyagawa Ryo was not thinking about how to deal with the young detective's next questioning, but was thinking about the message that Gin had just sent him.
Gin transferred A Xiu to work under him.
Miyagawa Ryo knew that his interactions with Akai Shuichi were under the surveillance of the organization, and he also thought about the follow-up and found a reason to transfer Youqinran to Magno.
But he didn't expect that before he could take any action, the organization would send people here first.
Putting aside the purpose of the organization, Miyagawa Ryo has recently been thinking about how to get close to Akai Shuichi as Magno, and then guide him to think of him as Leo, the devil, and now he has the identity of a boss.
Go meet Ah Xiu soon and arrange the next assignment.
Miyagawa Ling thought secretly.
"Komiyagawa." Hagiwara Kenji's voice suddenly came into my mind: "Can you change your voice?"
Miyakawa Ling had a bad feeling, but he couldn't figure out why. "No, I don't plan to let 'Magno' and A Xiu have close contact. I just want A Xiu to know about Magno's existence."
"Well, you are well prepared. That makes me feel relieved." Kenji Hagiwara smiled happily.
Miyakawa Ling thought of his previous prank, hesitated for a moment, and asked: "Hagi, are you angry?"
"no!"
"Really?" What a weird smile!
Kenji Hagiwara lowered his head and looked at the things he had prepared for "Magno", his nice voice full of joy: "Absolutely not!"
Miyagawa Ryo: "I knew Hagi-chan was a very generous person."
Hagiwara Kenji smiled: "Yeah."
…
“Ding Dong.”
Kudo Shinichi rang the doorbell of Dr. Agasa's house.
There was no response.
He thought it was normal and pressed it again.
This time, a voice came from inside: "Who is it?"
The clear and somewhat soft voice of a little girl.
Kudo Shinichi was stunned. Who is this?
"Huh? Is he the doctor's relative?" Mao Li Ran was also a little surprised.
"That sounds so cute!" Suzuki Sonoko turned around and asked, "Isn't it?"
Miyagawa Ling nodded.
Soon, the door was opened from the inside, and several people looked inside with curiosity.
Miyagawa Ryo also looked over, but he did not see the cute little girl who matched the voice. Instead, he saw an old man with round-framed glasses and a white beard.
The old man was wearing a black mask on the lower half of his face. He looked surprised when he saw the people: "Shinichi? And Xiaolan, Sonoko..."
As soon as he spoke, several people were stunned.
Because the voice of his voice was exactly the same as that of the little girl just now!
An old man had the voice of a young girl. It was so scary!
"Doctor." Kudo Arata got goosebumps all over his body. "What are you doing?"
Upon hearing this, Dr. Agasa said proudly, "Shinichi, you came at the right time. Let me show you my new invention - a mask-shaped voice changer!"
As he spoke, he stretched out his hand to adjust his tone. When he spoke again, his voice was already that of a mature uncle: "Just put on this mask..."
The old woman said: "You can make all kinds of sounds!"
"Wow! How amazing!" The two girls came over to show their support.
Miyagawa Ling, who was walking at the end, closed the door.
With his back to the crowd, a faint light flashed in his eyes.
It looks like there will be an unexpected gain tonight.
…
When receiving the news that he was transferred to Magno's work, Shuichi Akai was a little surprised, but not that surprised.
Because Miyagawa Ryo said before that he would help him.
but……
magno.
Ling actually made him a subordinate of the code member directly?
Shuichi Akai had to think that Magno was in the direction of Miyagawa Ryo.
Akai Shuichi knew very well that it was not difficult for Miyagawa Ryo to get a code name.
Especially after his heart also turned towards darkness.
Gin told Shuichi Akai about the transfer order, but he did not tell him Magno's contact information.
Shuichi Akai waited for several days before finally receiving a call from Magno.
An unfamiliar number sent a mission command directly to his phone:
【Tomorrow night at 9 o'clock, go to this location to participate in an important mission. 】
【(Picture)】
The message was not signed, but Shuichi Akai knew that it was Magno.
He replied "yes" without any hurry, and then sent a message to Miyakawa Ling, using a tone of great respect:
[I was transferred to Magno's work. Was it you who did this? ]
Miyagawa Ling replied immediately: [It’s me~ Just remember this favor! ]
Akai Shuichi: [I will keep this in mind. What kind of person is Magno?]
Miyakawa Ling did not say it clearly, but just said: "Follow him, be obedient, and you will be safe."
To the organization, these words were full of malice, as if a powerful hunter was deceiving and teasing the poor prey, waiting to enjoy his despair after discovering the truth.
But Akai Shuichi knew that what Ling wanted to tell him was the literal meaning.
With Magno, as long as he obeyed, he would be safe.
Why?
Magno...is he really Ling?
But it was no longer appropriate for Shuichi Akai to ask more questions.
His slender fingers typed: [Thank you.]
Anyway, we'll see you tomorrow.
The next afternoon, Shuichi Akai carried his sniper bag and headed to Magno's designated location.
He didn't know what the mission was; he didn't know what to do.
He could only follow Magno's orders and arrive at the designated location at the specified time.
At 8:50 in the evening, Shuichi Akai arrived at his destination.
He looked up and glanced at the building in the dark night.
This is an abandoned factory. There is no light inside and the surroundings are extremely quiet as it is far away from the crowd.
Very suitable for killing and disposing of bodies.
Shuichi Akai held the pistol and walked in with his bag on his back.
It was very dark inside and he could only make out some discarded debris with the moonlight. He didn't turn on the light and just walked inside along the edge of the wall.
It took Shuichi Akai about five minutes to find the stairs.
He followed Magno's request, climbed the stairs and headed to the second floor.
"Boom." Although I tried to make my steps as light as possible, the sound of footsteps was still exceptionally loud.
Akai Shuichi looked down.
He did not show his inner vigilance, his expression was indifferent, and he simply let it go and walked away.
“Boom.”
“Boom.”
The number of steps was not that long, but now it seemed very long. Every step made the same sound, but each sound seemed louder and sharper.
“Boom boom!”
“Boom boom boom!”
The sound gradually approaches its peak.
Shuichi Akai stepped onto the last step.
I could also see the scene on the second floor clearly.
