"So who is this Akai Shuichi you are talking about?" After silently listening to Noel cursing the name over and over again, Morofushi Jingguang finally asked.
"All the stars are big." Noel thought for a moment and replied.
"Who?" Zhu Fu Jingguang was unable to react for a moment and asked subconsciously.
"It's that rye whiskey, Morohoshi Dai, real name Akai Shuichi, an FBI undercover." Noel felt angry again as he spoke. He never thought that he would be associated with these people for so long. He was very unhappy.
"I only know that he was an undercover agent and then left the organization." Morobushi Jingguang remembered that he was very surprised when he learned that the other party was an undercover agent. After all, he had the honor of going on a mission with this undercover agent together with Zero, and he and Zero secretly discussed whether they could first deal with this overly dangerous new member of the organization to prevent him from growing into a high-level executive.
But on second thought, he remembered the girl who called him Xiu Ge back then. He thought she just changed her name because of something she did. Now it seems that the so-called Xiu Ge refers to her real name, Akai Shuichi. But what happened between her and Noel?
"So he knows your identity and calls you brother?" Zhu Fujingguang asked directly.
"I only met his father when I was a kid..." Noel said weakly, "At that time, he joked about adopting me. This guy must have known about it and deliberately called me that..."
"Before joining the organization?" Zhu Fu Jingguang was stunned and asked.
"Hmm..." Noel was not in a very good mood. After all, he didn't like to reminisce about the past.
"Are you very angry?" Zhu Fu Jingguang sighed and asked softly.
"No, I didn't believe him either, I just didn't expect it to be such a coincidence." Noel didn't understand why Xiaoguang asked that. He was not the ungrateful snake in "The Farmer and the Snake". Akai Shuichi's father... should be a guy named Akai Tsutomu. He was already very grateful that he saved himself from that child-abusing bastard. As for being adopted and leaving that alley, it was like a piece of illusory candy. He never had any hope for it in the first place.
"I'm a little angry..." Morofu Jingguang said, with a hint of complexity flashing across his blue-purple pupils.
"Why?" Noel felt confused.
"I envy you the chance to take you away before you get hurt too much," said Morobushi Kagemitsu.
After hearing this, Noel suddenly became quiet and said nothing.
"I hope it's not too late now." Zhu Fu Jingguang continued, and then he also calmed down, as if waiting for the other party to give a reply.
So is it okay? Can I pull you out?
The officer's unfinished words were very clear, like a hand stretched out from afar, waiting for those who longed for salvation to grab them, and then they could easily enter the sunny land.
The atmosphere remained silent, and Noel did not answer. After an unknown amount of time had passed, the man standing there blankly suddenly spoke out slowly, like a clockwork puppet:
"I'm going to take a shower."
Morofushi Jingguang watched the other party leave without saying anything, then went downstairs to start preparing dinner for today.

Is Kong bro okay?
Conan has returned to the Mouri Detective Agency, but his thoughts are still at the Natsukawa family, his mind full of today's events.
Although there is nothing wrong with what Xiaoguang said, but... I always feel that it is not that simple. Besides, the person my dad is willing to help pass the message on should be a friend he admires very much and not a bad person. However, Kong Ge's attitude is very strange. Although I am surprised, the aura that flashed across his face at that moment... is a bit scary.
Italian. According to Kong Ge, his father is Italian and his mother... should be Japanese, so the other party used the Italian language for his younger brother.
If I look forward to meeting him, will he come back to Japan? What kind of person is he? Will he have any negative impact on me?
And there is another thing that makes Conan a little concerned. He accidentally saw Xiaoguang's shopping list. According to the list, he only bought a large amount of food this afternoon. He didn't buy much in the past few days. Could it be that Kongge was not at home these two days? If he is a cartoonist, he should not be drawing at home often. Is it because of his work at the art museum? Kongge seems to be very busy...
And before, Officer Hagiwara mentioned being sick...
Conan couldn't help rubbing his head. He felt that there was nothing wrong with Natsukawa Sora's existence, but there were more and more mysteries about him, making it difficult for the detective to suppress his curiosity. The desire to investigate made him itchy.
"Conan?" A soft voice came from his ear, and Conan came back to his senses and met Xiaolan's worried gaze.
"Why are you so worried after returning from Kong's house?"
"Is there something wrong with Brother Kong?"
"No, I'm just helping to pass on a message?" Conan said quickly. He suddenly remembered Brother Kong... That guy Natsukawa Kong seemed to have feelings for Xiaolan, so he immediately went into defense mode.
"Who to help?" Xiaolan asked doubtfully.
"Uh... is it dad?" Conan was sad to find that Xiaolan seemed to be very interested in Natsukawa Sora's topic, and he felt a little uncomfortable.
"Could it be that Conan, your father knows Kong?" Xiaolan's curiosity was aroused when she heard this. She was a little surprised that Conan's parents came to visit her yesterday.
"It seems to be my father's friend." Conan had no need to lie about this.
"That's such a coincidence." Xiaolan said in surprise. She really didn't expect this.
"Hahaha, yeah." Conan naturally didn't expect that his father would know Natsukawa Sora's "brother", and from the tone of his voice, he might even know Natsukawa Sora. When did it happen and why didn't he know about it!
"I almost forgot, here it is." Xiaolan suddenly thought of something and took out a comic book from her bag and gave it to Conan.
"Is this the new issue of the comic?" Conan looked at the cover and instantly realized that this was the comic that he had not had time to buy today. He couldn't help but look up at his childhood sweetheart.
"I know you like it." Xiaolan raised the corners of her mouth, bent her waist and smiled, "But don't delay your studies."
"Thank you, Xiaolan." Conan's whole body and every cell became happy. His heart was slowly filled with joy, and the slight distress just now disappeared.
“Ding Dong——”
"Oh, it's the video that Sonoko sent me of the last time we went to karaoke," Xiaolan turned on her phone and replied to Sonoko's message, while looking at Conan and asked, "Do you want to see it, Conan?"
"No need..." Conan had some self-awareness and decided not to revisit his dark history. He returned to his room with the comic book in his arms, leaving Xiaolan unable to help laughing. She sent Conan's reaction to Sonoko.
/It turns out that kid knows that his singing is terrible. My ears have been tortured~/
/Conan is similar to Shinichi in this respect/
/Tsk, I don't know what Shinichi that bastard is doing lately, and he doesn't even come to accompany you! Mr. Tatsuya has already proposed to you! /
/What does this have to do with Mr. Tatsuya? But Mr. Kimura and Manager Terahara are a perfect match. I was able to witness Mr. Kimura's proposal yesterday. It was so romantic! /
/What, are you jealous? Xiaolan. /
/How is it possible?!/
/Anyway, when I catch that bastard Shinichi one day, I will definitely teach him a lesson! /
/But I have to say that fans are a little shocked to see Mr. Tatsuya and Manager Terahara together, but everyone can understand it. After all, the new song released by Tatsuya today is full of pink bubbles, and it is obvious that he is in love. It is super sweet! /
/And I never thought that Mr. Tatsuya would be so shy when he was in love. This contrast is really great! /
/Sonoko, didn't you say before that Mr. Kimura is your sweetheart? /
/But now I am a CP fan! /
/....../

"Noel, are you done with your shower? Come down and have dinner quickly!" Morofu Jingguang quickly prepared dinner, and Hongshu also sat obediently at the dining table waiting, but for some reason, Noel, who had gone to take a shower, had not made any movement.
"Noel" Morofushi Jingguang was a little confused. After saying hello to Hongshu, he got up and went to the second floor to call the other party.
Something is wrong... Noel is not like this normally. What happened...
The closer Morofu Jingguang got to the bathroom, the stronger his bad premonition became. He quickened his pace until he smelled a hint of blood. His blue-purple pupils suddenly contracted. He rushed over and kicked the bathroom door open.
"Noel!"
In the bathtub, a man in thin clothes was half lying in it, and the transparent water was dyed scarlet. This seemingly frozen scene did not come alive because of the sudden intruder, and it was still dead silent.
Zhu Fu Jingguang was stunned for a moment, then quickly rushed over and quickly grabbed the other person's wrist from the bathtub. There were three knife wounds neatly arranged on it, and blood was still flowing.
"Xiao Guang?"
The man seemed to be awakened and tilted his head slightly. Under the wet hair sticking to his cheeks, his gray-green eyes were finally exposed. Under the light, they were translucent like glass beads. He seemed a little confused and didn't understand what the other person was doing.
"Don't move for now. I'll tell you if there's anything." Zhufu Jingguang carefully observed the wound, and after confirming that it was healing quickly, he breathed a sigh of relief and began to treat it quickly.
Noel did not say anything else. Perhaps he had no strength left, or perhaps he just did not know what to say. He watched the other party treat the wound skillfully with his gray-green eyes. Then he raised his head, and his blue-purple pupils reflected the misty lake, which seemed to be flowing.
Are you crying?
He suddenly wanted to ask, but before he could say anything he fell into a coma.
Morofushi Jingguang looked at Noel who had just been knocked unconscious by him and fell into silence. How should he get him out of this jar?
"Hongshu."
"What's wrong?"
"Come and help, and be prepared."
