Chapter 150 The Final Battle

387.

Everyone who observed this scene through the camera couldn't help but hold their breath.

"Toru..." Matsuda Jinpei squeezed out this sound from between his teeth. He subconsciously tightened the armrests and said with a smile on his face, "This is him, this is him."

This guy clearly had no idea what was going on, and his first reaction was to take care of the fainted Edogawa Conan. Should he praise him by saying "You are indeed the star of justice"?

She was exhausted to the extreme, yet still maintained a tenderness as fragile as spider silk.

Several people watched Chiyodani Toru settle the person down, and then he undressed to check his own injuries.

The cooling weather brought with it a chilly wind that made a whistling sound at the entrance of the cave. Chiyodani Toru turned his head and checked the gunshot wound on his shoulder.

It was already dark, and the firelight flickered between his brows, making the bright color burning in his eyes especially clear - as if he were alive.

Chiyodani Toru lowered his eyes, showing no pain, nor any surprise. He just checked it out skillfully to make sure he could do the best under the current circumstances, and then stopped paying attention.

Perhaps because it was still cold, or perhaps because he just didn't want Edogawa Conan to see the injury when he woke up, he ended up simply putting on his windbreaker with "Nothing Happened" written all over his body.

However, everyone who looked at the camera couldn't help but feel sad.

The bright red color merged with the flames, gradually spreading and expanding, as if it wanted to swallow up the thin figure.

Matsuda Jinpei first cursed: "How can you be so perfunctory."

Then he pounded the table in anger: "Akai Shuichi!"

"Baka!"

Sitting next to him, Hagiwara Kenji's throat moved slightly, and he said hoarsely: "Xiao Zhenping, there is not enough water... Toru can't bear it."

He was reluctant to drink even the two bottles of water himself and only gave Conan the dosage. If he continued like this, not to mention the wounds, it was unclear how long he could last.

"How can we find him as soon as possible?" he said hesitantly, "If the wound is infected and fever occurs, it's just a minor problem. If it causes respiratory failure..."

He closed his eyes, his teeth chattering a little: "None of us can accept it."

"That patch of forest has been blocked off. It looks like it should be in the sunny area. If we conduct a blanket search, it should take at most... two or three days."

Matsuda Jinpei muttered anxiously. He really wanted to change two or three days to two or three minutes, but such words could only deceive his ears. His heart was still frying in the burning oil pan.

The torn wounds on his arms felt hot, as if he could feel Chiyodani Toru's presence again.

He looked at the screen, trying to find the decisive landmark in the small field of vision, but his eyes finally drifted to Chiyodani Toru involuntarily.

The black-haired man seemed to have lost some weight, and his emotional outburst had left a faint blush on his cheeks, making him look softer. His black eyes were looking at the sleeping child, but also seemed to be looking at them.

Although Conan Edogawa had already been settled, he still didn't plan to go to bed directly. Instead, he put his hand on his chest in a daze, wanting to say something, but nothing came out.

——His eyes wandered in the void.

A chill ran down Matsuda Jinpei's back, and he soon realized what he was doing.

Chiyodani Toru must be looking for Granmani, whom he once feared and hated but who never betrayed him.

The secondary personality, which had just collapsed due to a few hesitations from Conan Edogawa, arranged everything on behalf of Toru Chiyodani within this month.

That's what they should have done.

"Almost there." The man in the picture suddenly chuckled. He slowly curled up with his hands open, as if hugging himself, and whispered, "Hold on a little longer, and you'll have a good sleep."

It was a gentle voice, but it exploded in their ears like thunder.

"No!" Matsuda Jinpei woke up as if from a dream. He threw himself over and hugged the screen, wanting to shout at it, but after his words came out, they turned into low, desperate pleas, "Don't do it again, Toru!"

------------

Morofushi Kagemitsu never dreamed that one day he would rush into the FBI territory and punch the table in front of Akai Shuichi who was in a meeting.

The latter dodged subconsciously, but the water splashing from the teacup still got on his collar.

The scene was filled with astonishment, but Akai Shuichi just raised his head slightly and said, "If you are here for Chiyotani-kun's matter, I know about it. I am responsible for this matter and have already sent people to look for him as much as possible."

Zhu Fu Jingguang asked coldly: "Why? He is a member of the Japanese Public Security Bureau. Aren't you FBI overreaching?"

Shuichi Akai was silent for a moment. He remembered that he once met Granmani. He wondered if the Public Security Bureau was cooperating with him, but the other party just sneered and told him to fight with all his strength, regardless of winning or losing.

And really, Granmani and Gin never showed any mercy when they attacked him.

This pot is so big.

Akai Shuichi frowned, not knowing how to explain it for a moment, so he simply skipped over this point and said, "It's the same style of attack that we usually use, but he didn't dodge it this time."

Zhu Fu Jingguang paused.

"Also, he usually chooses to cooperate with Gin, but he didn't this time." Akai Shuichi said, "I suggest you investigate the situation in the organization first."

In front of everyone, the FBI's best agent still maintains unshakable stability and rationality, like a lighthouse standing in the sea, never wavering.

But only he himself knew that the moment he saw the light of Zhufu rushing in, the guilt that suddenly rushed into his mind was like a rare sea storm that only happens once in a century, blocking the light of the lighthouse for a moment.

It turned into a dark uneasiness.

At that time, when he saw that only Chiyodani Toru appeared around the FBI base, Shuichi Akai's first reaction was that because the base was exposed, Gin wanted to launch a surprise attack, so he didn't hold back without saying a word.

In fact, Chiyodani Toru's actions were the same as before, but Gin was slow to show up. It can even be said that when the black-haired young man wearing metal glasses saw him shooting, his movements suddenly froze for a moment, and he was hit directly in the shoulder.

Then he disappeared.

Only traces of blood were left, buried in the deep fallen leaves, becoming the target of some wild beasts.

Shuichi Akai said: "We are very sorry, but we will do our best to find him."

Morofushi Jingguang took a deep breath and threw a few photos sent to him by Furuya Ling in front of Akai Shuichi: "Within this scope, I hope you can provide some help."

Akai Shuichi looked at the backpack and props that obviously belonged to Edogawa Conan, and his expression was finally no longer so calm.

He frowned deeply, really not understanding why Edogawa Conan would stay with Chiyodani Toru.

…

On the other hand, Gin, who found the place where the signal disappeared, also began to look for people in this area.

[Damn Ai Hubi Ai! But Akai looks really stable. The red team is really reliable with him. Gran and Gin didn't hold back and the game was evenly matched.]

[Will Gran really not let any water go? (Thinking) It seems that there is really no need to let the FBI go...]

[By the way, what does Akai mean by that? Normally, he can dodge it, but not this time. Is Toru's body not well yet?]

[It seems that they didn’t mention his detoxification. The Red Team should have made an antidote, but… Toru didn’t listen. Can Gran still listen to them?]

[I laughed so hard, I suddenly remembered that Toru is a husky, is Gran a wolf cub?]

[Gin isn’t here… According to the last episode, they should be going to the boss. If Gran had known about it in advance, he wouldn’t have taken the antidote if he wanted to fight to the death. Then he ran into Akai Shuichi… giao! Why are you guys still fighting without Gin? Now you’re screwed!]

[Help! There is not enough water and food in this cave. Toru is injured. Does he have medicine? I am scared!]

[Children are afraid too!]

388.

Chiyoya Saori really wanted to play a game with the cute customer service, but to be honest, every time she saw the thumb-sized little man pretending to be cold and imitating Granmani's tone and posture, Granmani himself couldn't help laughing.

The cute customer service was furious: [Do you look down on me? You are not allowed to say no! You just have it! ]

Chiyoya Hayato was helpless: [Then try the other way around? ]

The Q version of the customer service reluctantly agreed, but soon burst into tears: [I can't do it, looking at my male god's posture, I want to lick him. ]

Chiyoya Saori: “…”Are you getting too into the role?

Seeing that his plan was about to fail, the cute customer service said unwillingly: "How about I write the lines and you read them? There is a greater chance that they will be published in comics!"

Chiyoya Saori answered perfunctorily: "Then you write first, I will play with you when I wake up."

The cute customer service was happily writing the script, and Chiyoya Saori didn't even think about moving to another place to hang out, but fell asleep with her hands as a pillow.

…

When Edogawa Conan woke up, he still felt a burning pain in his neck and his head was dizzy and disoriented, but he still sat up reflexively and almost slapped his hand into the fire.

"Are you awake? The food is next to you."

A cold voice came from not far away. Edogawa Conan shuddered and blinked several times before he could see the figure clearly.

It should be almost noon now. The sun was shining on the cliff, and the reflection was particularly dazzling. A man in a black windbreaker was standing in the circle of light, weaving something with vines. He looked like a god born in the sun.

He was wearing metal glasses, and his expression was somewhat unclear. There was no telling how many bullets were left in the gun beside him, which could be taken out at any time to kill someone.

Edogawa Conan's face turned pale, his memory came back to him, and his neck suddenly felt more painful.

Yesterday, because of his suicidal curiosity, he blew up Granmani with just a few words. As a result, the shocking information revealed by the other party made Conan Edogawa uneasy even in his coma.

So...the Che Ge he was familiar with was already asleep, and the one here was the real Granmani.

But how was he born? What did Chiyotani Toru experience in a place unknown to him?

Edogawa Conan didn't understand.

He just sadly concluded that at least Chiyodani Toru's current sleep was the result of the organization's ruthless hands and their distrust, a joint impact of both parties.

His normally very agile brain connected things exceptionally quickly at this moment, and Edogawa Conan was able to infer most of the hidden conclusions based on this one piece of information alone, and then he curled up his fingers involuntarily.

The young detective murmured in a low voice with some grievance: "Brother Che... I don't disbelieve him."

The live broadcast button hanging on his chest still had no movement, and Edogawa Conan didn't know whether anyone saw it or not, but he still whispered helplessly, trying to use confession to dispel the coldness emanating from the bottom of his heart.

"I just..." he said dazedly, "I just want to deal with the organization."

After all, Conan Edogawa is unwilling to fall behind others. He doesn't think there is anything wrong with his young age. His smart brain can obviously make up for his age.

He judged from the surface that Granmani had killed countless people. Even after the brainwashing effect was lifted, he continued to stay in the organization and fight against the FBI, and the public security police all avoided this.

However, except for Mr. Akai who was willing to give him a chance to communicate, no one else was willing to tell him too much information, as if they were deliberately isolating him just because his plan failed last time.

Conan Edogawa was originally dissatisfied with this, and even became more obsessed with Granmani because of it. That was why he couldn't help but ask directly at the beginning.

But now, he suddenly remembered that when he was nervously watching the fight between Matsuda Jinpei and others, he blurted out "Cheol-ge", which led to the reversal of the outcome.

If Chiyotani Toru was still alive at that time...

The young detective's face turned pale. He curled up subconsciously, hugged his legs, and buried his head in the darkness.

If Cheuk-ge was still here at that time...

He fell into the sea because of... the plan he had proposed in the beginning.

Officers Matsuda and Hagiwara went on leave one after another, and Mr. Furuya never had a good face again. They looked at him with complicated eyes and sighs, and refused him to participate in the operation plan again and again.

Shinsou even left Dr. Agasa's house directly and no longer contacted him and Haibara Ai.

Conan Edogawa suddenly felt a little short of breath. If this was the case, then he and Mr. Akai, who made the suggestion, seemed to be the masterminds behind Tetsu's murder.

"How could this happen..." he muttered in confusion, "Did I do something wrong..."

He just wanted to deal with the organization, and Granmani stood on the darker side of his black and white judgment standards.

But what if he actually has other reasons?

Since he didn't find all the evidence, was the evidence he deduced true?

Conan Edogawa suddenly became a little flustered. A fact that he usually found difficult to discover was now right in front of him.

——No truth is black and white.

The young detective huddled himself in a ball, trembling with fear. The chaotic thoughts in his head made the world before his eyes faintly shaken. He urgently needed someone to confirm or deny him, but there was only one Granmani here.

"What are you doing here?" The familiar cold voice came from above his head, directly interrupting his crazy thoughts.

Conan Edogawa was pulled up by the collar. The man glanced at him with some disdain and said venomously, "What? Are you wronged that this little bit of food is not enough?"

"Or are you so scared by me that you want to cry and look for your mother?"

Seeing his repulsive look, Edogawa Conan suddenly felt even sadder. He opened his mouth and said, "I..."

"Be quiet!"

Before Edogawa Conan could finish his words, half a cookie was stuffed directly into his mouth, choking him so much that he almost rolled his eyes. Before he could swallow it, a bottle cap-sized amount of water was poured directly into his mouth.

"Mmmm!" The young detective was fed like a duck, his cheeks were bulging, and he couldn't eat.

Like a stupid hamster.

The man's hand was a little itchy, but he didn't lift it up in the end. He changed the subject and said sarcastically, "Or is this how you usually act coquettishly with your girlfriend?"

The young detective was furious, and from then on he understood the difference between Chiyodani Toru and Granmani more clearly.

His brother is never that violent!!

But...it seemed like he would never see him again.

Edogawa Conan's mood, which had just been frightened, instantly became depressed again.

He hadn't eaten anything since yesterday. He was stuffed with a biscuit at noon, and his stomach was actually growling with hunger.

But looking at Granmani's indifferent look, Conan Edogawa knew that what he wanted to eat was unrealistic.

It's too difficult for two people to survive in this place.

Afterwards, no matter what Edogawa Conan wanted to say, he was answered coldly. Granmani even poked him several times with Mouri Ran, as if he just wanted to see him feel uncomfortable.

Conan Edogawa was so angry that he clenched his fists, his blood boiling, and he couldn't even hold back the apology he wanted to say.

What he owes is an apology to Chego. It's true that Granmani is a bad guy!

Conan Edogawa pursed his lips and thought about how he could use his parents' connections to find a doctor and find a way to save Toru.

He wandered around the cave all afternoon, trying to use Dr. Agasa's live broadcast prop to convey information and wait for rescue.

At night, it was another thumb-sized cookie.

Then, Conan Edogawa watched Granmani walk towards him, hold his wrist, open his anesthetic watch, and face him.

"call out!"

The terrified little detective lay down.

Chiyogaya Saori clapped her hands, took a long breath, and finally smiled for the first time that day.

She looked at Conan Edogawa with a frown on her face, and even poked his cheek in a funny way: "You are the one who usually stabs Detective Mori with a needle. Now you are giving it away for nothing, right?"

"I don't know when rescue will come." She muttered, "Let's sleep one more day."

Q version customer service: [Dear, I have finished writing, please take a look. ]

Chiyoya Saori was startled. She sat back at her fire place and took some vines from the cliff as fuel. Then, while reading what the customer service wrote, she casually picked up a cool stone next to her and applied it to her slightly hot face.

If the wound is not treated properly, it will definitely become inflamed. She took painkillers but didn't feel anything. Instead, she felt hot all over because of the fire.

[It's actually quite warm in the cave in the middle of winter.] She said with emotion, [It would be better to have some grilled fish and watermelon juice...]

Q version customer service: [You can take Hei Yu Kuai Dou and the others out to eat when the time comes. ]

Chiyoya Saori thought about the upcoming ending and couldn't help but smile even more brightly: "I'm looking forward to it."

389.

"What's going on now?"

Kenji Hagiwara slept in a hurry at Dr. Agasa's house, and when he woke up, he went to find Jinpei Matsuda to take over his shift.

Because the forest is so desolate and there are a lot of fallen leaves in autumn and winter, it is very difficult to find the gap and lock the position of the cliff. In particular, Chiyodani Toru does not want Edogawa Conan to go to the edge of the cliff to see the scenery - probably because he is afraid that the strong wind will blow the child directly off.

They could only watch the situation in front of the screen, anxiously waiting for news of the missing person.

Matsuda Jinpei smiled bitterly and said, "This is the first time I've discovered that Toru's acting is actually pretty good."

They naturally saved the video as well. Hagiwara Kenji casually flipped through it and immediately understood what Matsuda Jinpei meant.

Looking at the video where Chiyodani Toru threatened Conan Edogawa with a cold face and even forced food into his mouth, Kenji Hagiwara inexplicably wanted to laugh.

Especially just now, Chiyodani Toru used an anesthetic needle to force Edogawa Conan to sleep, and at the end he still had the mind to complain a few words. His face, which had been tense for a whole day, finally showed his usual smile, and his eyebrows and eyes showed the relaxation of "the performance is finally over".

"This guy..." Hagiwara Kenji couldn't help but relax his shoulders. He murmured, "As expected, he still looks better when he smiles... How come we didn't recognize him when he's so different?"

Matsuda Jinpei curled his lips and said in a self-deprecating tone, "Who knows? Maybe it's because I'm too familiar with it, so I don't care about it anymore."

It's like how people are always polite and observant in front of outsiders, but reveal their true nature to those around them, just like a frog in warm water, facing slight changes little by little without noticing anything.

Hagiwara Kenji sighed.

"He's worried that Conan can't stand the fear of being trapped." Matsuda Jinpei looked at the screen. The black-haired young man took off his glasses and leaned against the stone wall tiredly. He said, "There is too little food and water. Pressure from all aspects can easily crush a person."

Chiyodani Toru was busy during the day, scrabbling over vines, trying to collect morning dew and looking for more food sources. He was injured, and the situation would probably deteriorate faster.

"...Perhaps, he was also worried that Conan would feel guilty, so he wanted to dispel this guilt in the end."

Hagiwara Kenji punched him on the shoulder: "What nonsense are you talking about!"

Matsuda Jinpei shook his head. His curly hair had not been taken care of for a long time and was now messy. He looked more like a savage than Chiyodani Toru. But the person who had been squatting in front of the video for a day could see clearly that the thin figure hidden under the black windbreaker was still enduring extreme suffering.

"Toru may have started to have a fever." He whispered, his throat felt like he had swallowed a piece of burning coal on the fire. "It's been a day, Hagi, why is there still no news?"

Hagiwara Kenji remained silent. Although he said he was going to sleep, he couldn't sleep well at all. This was the extent of his anxiety.

In a few days, cold air will arrive again, and there will definitely be heavy snow... They are racing against time.

"Kofuruya and Komorobushi feel the same way as we do," he said. "No one will dare to let their guard down again."

None of them dared to endure the pain of watching their companions leave again.

No one dares to do that.

The man in the video didn't know if it was because of the fire, but his cheeks, which were usually so pale that he could cosplay as a vampire, were slightly flushed. He sat sideways with half of his cheek pressed against the stone wall, as if absorbing a bit of coolness.

The heavy metal glasses were taken off and placed aside, revealing gentle and immersed black eyes. The starlight inside was shattered and turned into many points of light, but it was still rippling inside.

But soon, there were waves in his eyes, like a hurricane that suddenly swept up and instantly caused the fluctuation of his expression.

"You should know my past, right?" He suddenly began to whisper, his pale lips opening and closing as if he was speaking to them across the screen. "In essence, we are the same person."

"He's talking to Granmani?" Matsuda Jinpei was stunned. "Can they talk directly to each other?"

Without even turning his head, Hagiwara Kenji precisely covered Yu Xunran's mouth with his hand, trying to hear the two-person play without subtitles more clearly.

…

"I just want to hear it from you in person." He answered himself, but with a slightly different tone.

"Saori...Saori, I miss her." Chiyogaya Toru slowly curled up, wrapped his arms around his calves, and rested his chin on his knees. The flickering fire in his eyes flickered on and off with each blink. "I... really miss her."

This is a typical defensive posture, as if trying to seek a sense of security.

"Nineteen years." He murmured, a little aggrieved, "I never heard her call my name once."

At the age of twenty-seven, the time they had been apart had far exceeded the time they had been together, but the brief time they had been together was enough to leave a lasting impression.

Granmani's tone was much more subdued, and his words usually sounded like threats: "She didn't want to come to you."

"We agreed to go stargazing together," Chiyodani Toru continued, "and catch fireflies in the summer. It would be best if we could soak in a hot spring and wear the same yukata..."

"She had short hair, which should be exactly the same as mine. When we walked out, no one would guess who we were."

His tone was soft, as if he was constructing a wonderful dream.

"She and I have always been in tune with each other." He whispered in an incredibly gentle voice, "I'm not in pain. I really am not in pain."

"This is a one-in-a-million chance in the world."

Granmaney said, "Could she be my sister?"

Chiyotani Toru affirmed him: "You should be me."

Chiyodani Toru was quite pleased with himself. His eyes narrowed when he smiled, and dimples were visible when he smiled the widest.

"It's me she loves."

The words were so firm that they seemed to have crossed the distance of mountains and rivers and reached the ears of the sleeping woman directly, causing her wrinkled brows to relax and even reveal a faint smile.

Chiyoya Saori was reluctant to make her younger brother sad, not to mention that there was an even more lonely star on Chiyoya Toru's body.

After losing their elders, they only have each other to rely on.

After they separated from each other, they still left a unique place in their hearts for each other, and this place cannot be entered by anyone in the world.

Special and beautiful, it is the most precious gift.

Granmani still asked stubbornly: "What about the policemen? They don't trust you."

The two people in front of the screen held their breath like criminals waiting for the judge's verdict.

For the first time, an indescribable expression appeared on the man's face, and the blush on his fair face became more obvious.

He obviously didn't want to answer this question that came out of his own mouth but was not controlled by his brain, but in the end he still said in a tangled manner: "There's nothing to say about this."

"It was not accidental that I appeared in the first place, and it was just improvisation that I wanted to be remembered."

I wrote every stroke of the words on the rooftop of the police academy so carefully, but I was still dazzled by the overly beautiful atmosphere of that night, so much so that I forgot my original purpose.

"It is because I barged into their peaceful life so rudely that I stirred up the pool to the point where no one could see the bottom."

He finally began to explain the problem to himself in a serious manner, as if he were writing a paper. "But in the end, I was the one who let them down first."

"If there is a chance, it would be great to say thank you, sorry, and goodbye."

His eyebrows were curved, his cheeks were flushed, but he uttered words as cold as ice: "If there is still that day - but I think they don't want to see me."
