Chapter 872 Memory became severely confused
Perhaps because it hadn't been repaired in a long time, the lights inside flickered, creating a haunted house atmosphere.
Mitsuhiko and Ayumi pulled Machi inside.
Upon entering the house, Kawasaki Machi heard the soft meows of a cat.
They went into the bedroom and found several kittens huddled inside.
As soon as they saw Ayumi and her two companions, they meowed and came over to rub against them.
There might be some dust outside, but the bedroom was very clean, obviously someone comes to clean it regularly.
As Ayumi crouched down and picked up a kitten, she explained to Kawakami Machi, "These kittens are all stray cats. We brought them here with an older sister we knew before. This rented room belongs to her, and she said we can come and visit these kittens anytime."
"So we often come over to play with the kittens." Mitsuhiko took out milk from his bag, poured it out, and fed it to the kittens.
Kawasaki Machi blinked, and as soon as he squatted down, he was surrounded by kittens.
He picked one up, sat down on the spot, and stroked the soft, warm kitten, which seemed to make him feel much better.
Seeing this, the three of them exchanged a secret glance and gave each other a thumbs up.
The four of them stayed there for more than an hour, said goodbye to the kittens, closed the doors and windows, and left.
They weren't worried that the kittens would get bored; the older woman had made a special note in the corner so that they could go out for a stroll whenever they wanted.
They chattered away as they left the somewhat dilapidated rental house, eventually parting ways at an intersection to go home to their respective mothers.
Kawasato Machi walked towards Beika-cho 2-chome, taking in his surroundings as he went.
He found a good spot, and then...
He lay down.
I'm dizzy.
The pink-haired boy muttered something to himself and then closed his eyes.
Ai Haibara, who returned a little late because she had to complete the day's cleaning tasks with Conan, discovered that Machi Kawamoto hadn't come back yet.
So she called Ayumi to ask.
"Ayumi, did Machi leave school with you?"
Because Machi Kawasaki's condition hasn't been very good lately, Ai Haibara is genuinely worried about him.
"Yes, because we saw that Makoto seemed to be in a bad mood, we took him to see the kittens, but we parted ways half an hour ago. Hasn't he gotten home yet?"
Ayumi explained, and then expressed some concern about the possibility.
“He might just have been delayed on the way. We’ll go back and look for him. Don’t worry, I’ll let you know once we find him.”
After finishing her sentence, Ai Haibara hung up the phone and then went out with Subaru Okiya to look for Machi Kawasaki, while also sending a message to Conan.
She put on her spare glasses and tracked the transmitter of the Detective Club badge on Machi's body, discovering that the red dot remained stuck at the intersection of 2-chome.
When they arrived at the red dot, they found that Kawasaki Machi had fainted by the roadside!
Subaru Okiya quickly went over, helped him up, and checked him over. "He just fainted."
Ai Haibara sighed. "Let's take him back first."
The weather was still a bit cold today, and Kawasaki Machi's hands were frozen stiff.
He put him on the bed and covered him with a blanket, leaving Ai Haibara there to watch over him, while Subaru Okiya went to the kitchen.
Nearly half an hour later, Kawasaki Machi, who had fainted for unknown reasons, suddenly woke up with a fine layer of cold sweat on his forehead.
"Zhenzhi, you're awake! What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell anywhere?"
Hearing the noise coming from the bed, Ai Haibara turned around and walked to the bedside, picking up a towel to wipe the cold sweat from his forehead.
"I......"
Kawasaki Machi's lips moved slightly as he took the towel from her hand.
He raised his hand to his forehead to ease the pain, "I...I think my head hurts a little..."
Makoto's light purple eyes were lost in thought for a moment, and he looked at Ai Haibara with a blank expression.
"I feel like I have a lot of strange memories in my mind. Are those my memories?"
Ai Haibara paused for a moment.
She looked at the bewildered young boy.
Could it be his memories from when he was an adult?
But why did I suddenly think of it?
While thinking to herself, she didn't forget to comfort him.
Kawasaki Machi sat on the bed in a daze, wrapped himself up in the blanket, making himself into a ball with only his head sticking out.
After dinner, Zhenzhi drifted off to sleep again, feeling dizzy and disoriented.
He woke up suddenly in the middle of the night, covered in cold sweat.
He hugged himself tightly, but still couldn't stop his body from trembling. He felt hot and cold all over, and a wave of nausea rose in his stomach.
He gagged, quickly covered his mouth, climbed off the bed, and staggered to the toilet.
However, what came out was not undigested food, but mouthfuls of thick blood.
After the nausea subsided, Kawasaki Machi rinsed the blood away, rinsed his mouth to remove the bloody taste, washed his face, and then weakly returned to the bedside to lie down.
He drifted off to sleep, but was woken up by the cold after a while, so he climbed back into bed and covered himself with the blanket.
At seven o'clock in the morning, Kawasaki Machi woke up, blinked, and got up to wash.
Then, as soon as he stepped outside, he ran into Subaru Okiya.
He paused for a moment, "Okiya?"
Okiya Subaru:?
Upon hearing this title, he looked down and sized up Kawasaki Machi. His expression didn't resemble that of a child version of Kawasaki Machi, but rather that of an adult version.
He nodded calmly. "I'll go make breakfast first."
"good."
Kawasaki Machi smiled and followed him into the kitchen. Then she sat down in a chair, resting her chin on her hands and watching him work.
He stared blankly for a moment, then suddenly said, "I have to go to school, but I don't want to go to school."
Subaru Okiya paused for a moment, "...?"
He turned around and saw Kawasaki Machi's puzzled look. "What's wrong?"
"nothing."
Subaru Okiya shook his head, outwardly continuing with what he was doing, but in reality, he was multitasking.
Kawasaki Machi is acting very strangely, as if... his memories are in serious disarray.
Yesterday, Ai Haibara told him that Machi Kawasato said that other people's memories appeared in his mind, and those memories should be his memories as an adult.
The cause of his memory confusion may be the drug that Death injected him with that time.
After preparing breakfast, he let Kawasaki Machi eat first, while he called Kobayashi Sumiko, the homeroom teacher of Class 1-B, to ask Machi for leave.
After finishing her breakfast, Kawasaki Machi ran to get her schoolbag and looked at Okiya Subaru expectantly, "I'm going to school?"
Subaru Okiya calmly took the backpack off his back. "You don't need to go to school today. I've asked for leave for you."
"?" Kawasaki Machi looked puzzled. "Why do I need to take a day off?"
