Chapter 767 Like a mochi coated with sesame powder
Toru Amuro: (_)
"Why the Chino family and not the Hiro family?"
Bechfenger widened her eyes and put her hands on her hips: "Because Chino-kun's food is also delicious."
Amuro Tooru looked at him quietly for a few seconds, then nodded. "Okay."
“I think…” Behringer, who was about to continue persuading him, paused, turning to look at him with a shocked expression. “Huh!? What did you just say? You actually agreed!?”
He scrutinized the dark-skinned blond man in front of him for several moments, then his expression gradually turned serious. He raised his hand, brushed aside Amuro Tooru's bangs, and placed his palm on his forehead. After a few seconds, he muttered to himself, "Strange, he doesn't have a fever. How could this be?"
Amuro Tooru's lips twitched, trying his best not to let his expression break down. "Rather than letting you sneak away on your own, I might as well have agreed in the first place."
Behringer's expression changed. He pulled the blanket over half his face, moved a little further away from Amuro Tooru, and looked at him warily, his tone full of disbelief, "This is different from the usual Zero!!"
Toru Amuro: "..."
Bay: Today I've decided to choose between breaking the law and breaking the rules – to be a jerk!
Amuro Tooru ignored him, returned the game console to him, and immediately stood up to complete the discharge procedures for today.
"Aww, Tou, from now on you're my only brother!"
Behrfinger bounced around.
Amuro Tooru chuckled, then left him outside the Chino residence and drove away.
After all, he has other things to do.
"Be...Behrfinger?"
Just as Blue Hair was about to press the doorbell, a voice sounded behind him.
He turned around and saw Ai Haibara holding a black cat in her arms.
"Huh? Ai?" Behringer blinked.
Ai Haibara couldn't help but shift her gaze to his legs, and asked with concern, "What happened to your legs...?"
"It's nothing, I just tripped and fell and broke my leg. It should be fine after some rest." Behringer chuckled and patted her head.
Upon hearing this, Ai Haibara lowered her eyelids and looked at him with a cool gaze, seemingly not believing his claim of "accident."
Behrfinger calmly rang the doorbell.
The door was quickly opened, and Liu Qingyao looked Behringer up and down. "Oh, so the poor, homeless, and battered little thing has come to seek refuge?"
Bechfenger: (_)
"I've come to pledge allegiance to Chino-kun, not to you. Shut up, you red-haired idiot!"
Liu Qingyao: "??? You blue mushroom, how dare you talk to me like that?"
Before the two of them could start fighting in a fit of anger, Qianzhu calmly appeared in the entrance hall, looking at them with a smile.
Their raised hands froze instantly.
Liu Qingyao forced a smile, "Oh dear, why are you standing at the door? Come and sit down."
Behrfinger gave a forced smile and said, "Oh, thank you, thank you."
Ai Haibara, who witnessed the entire event: "..."
However, they were actually quite obedient in front of Qianzhu?
"Ai, why don't you come in and sit down?" Chizuku said with a light smile, looking at Ai Haibara.
Ai Haibara nodded. "Okay."
Liu Qingyao went to make tea.
Qianzhu placed the teacup on the table to let it cool down, then glanced at Beihefenger and asked, "Tell me, what happened?"
Behefinger blinked, and tears immediately welled up in his eyes. He pitifully hugged Qianzhu's arm and began to sob. Looking at his aggrieved and harmless face, he was truly a sight to behold.
“I accidentally fell down the slope and hit my shin on a rock. It really hurt so much that I couldn’t sleep…” He wiped away his tears, sobbed a few times, and then looked up again and instantly regained his normal expression. “It was just so boring to be alone in the hospital, and I couldn’t afford the hospital fees, so I just got discharged. But I’m just a poor, homeless person, so I came to find you.”
Behrfinger blinked, clasped his hands together, and looked on expectantly, "Please take me in~"
Before Qianzhu could speak, he continued babbling, "Do you really want me to sleep pitifully under the bridge all by myself?"
Qianzhu opened her mouth, then sighed helplessly before agreeing, "Alright."
Bechfinger's eyes lit up immediately.
ω
"Yay! Chichan, you're so sweet! Give me a kiss!"
Ai Haibara: !?
"puff--"
Liu Qingyao spat out a mouthful of tea.
Then, calmly, he pulled out a tissue to wipe his mouth and dried the tea stains.
Haibara Ai stared wide-eyed at Behefinger's words, only to realize that he had just blurted it out because he was too excited.
She exhaled, coughed lightly, and calmly said, "You can't just say things like that, can you?"
"Huh?" Behringer paused for a couple of seconds, looking confused, then waved her hand. "I know, and I only say things like that to my family~"
You are indeed your own family, right?
whee.
"Huh?" Ai Haibara asked, puzzled. "Family?"
Realizing he had let something slip, Behringer silently covered his mouth, then smiled sheepishly, his gaze constantly glancing in Qianzhu's direction.
Qianzhu picked up her teacup, looked down at the floating tea leaf in the cup, gently blew away the steam, took a small sip, and then smiled slightly.
"The director did say that everyone in the orphanage is one family."
Ai Haibara was momentarily stunned.
Qianzhu and Bertrand are from the same orphanage.
Qianzhu and Beihefengge were also in the same orphanage.
In other words, Behringer and Bertrand were in the same orphanage.
Also, Machi and Kawasaki Maru and Behfinger were from the same orphanage.
"......"
Everyone around me is from the same orphanage...?
If that's the case, then it makes sense. No wonder Bertrand frequently came to see Qianzhu before.
However... something must have happened inside the orphanage.
After all, from the very beginning, Qianzhu had shown a very distant attitude towards them.
Could it be because of Death?
Bertrand disliked the organization, and both Trump and Behringer were also investigating it.
Ai Haibara was caught in a storm of thought and began to feel that her guess might be right.
Liu Qingyao calmly sipped her tea, as if she weren't a member of the orphanage.
Meow~
The black cat, which had been obediently staying in Ai Haibara's arms, suddenly got up and moved with elegant and haughty steps to lie down on Chizuru's lap.
Before it had even been half a minute since it lay down, Behringer had picked it up.
The black cat looked at Behringer in confusion: "Meow?"
Behrfinger's face lit up with a drooling expression.
"Hehehe, it looks like mochi coated in sesame powder, it looks so delicious~"
Black cat: "......"
Can you please stop assuming every animal looks delicious?!
