The arrival of the first year of Conan also gave Fujiwara Yu a better understanding of his own luck.
The dates of each day are like a lottery. Although they are arranged from January to December, it is really impossible to tell whether today is Sunday or Saturday. As a result, the first thing I do when I get up has changed from "washing up" to "looking at the calendar."
It only took one week from January 13th to February 10th. It's outrageous.
Fujiwara Yu couldn't help sighing as he looked at the calendar. He had been working overtime for a week and encountered difficult cases every day. Yesterday, in order to capture the criminals hiding in the mountains, he led the entire Special Investigation Team 7 to climb the mountain several times.
After washing up and changing into the dark grey suit that Akemi Miyano had ironed for him, he skillfully tied a tie of the same colour and smelled the aroma of food as he walked out of the bedroom.
During this period, Fujiwara Yu always worked overtime and came back late at night, so that the "task" of cooking at home was all done by Mingmei, which made him feel very guilty.
He took the initiative to help bring breakfast to the table, and used the remote control to turn on the TV. He watched the morning news program hosted by Hondou Eikai while enjoying the delicious meal. This was the most enjoyable part of the day for him. After all, the next step was to go out to work, and he would most likely encounter cases.
A 30-year-old man was arrested in the act after stabbing his girlfriend in her apartment in Beika-cho. The woman was later pronounced dead. According to the suspect, Takato Shibamoto, his motive for killing his girlfriend was... because she had stolen his boyfriend.
The mysterious pause during Hondou Eikai's live broadcast was obviously because he was shocked by the suspect's motive for murder.
A man killed his girlfriend because she stole his boyfriend. This news is more or less a bit too much information.
Fujiwara Yuu paused as he forked the bacon, and couldn't help but sigh:
"It's not easy being a news anchor these days. Without some professionalism, you really can't succeed."
"Yeah." Miyano Akemi hadn't expected such a ridiculous motive for murder. She took a sip of her hot milk and said, "Speaking of which, Tokyo's crime rate has increased recently. You didn't work overtime until the early hours every day before."
Fujiwara Yuu naturally knew the reason for the increase in crime rate, but he couldn't explain it, so he could only sigh:
"Poor self-control and the influence of a negative social environment often lead people down a path of crime. Actually, on the bright side, Asia is relatively good; at least there aren't any distorted human rights situations."
"That's right. I still hope that the law can protect the victims more instead of letting criminals off lightly for the sake of human rights." Miyano Akemi nodded in agreement. No living person has the right to forgive a criminal for the dead.
"I believe the law will improve over time and society will get better."
As soon as Fujiwara Yuu finished speaking, the cell phone on the table vibrated. After seeing the caller ID, he looked up at the TV that was playing the weather forecast in surprise. It seemed that someone took time out from work to call him.
He hesitated for a moment, then smiled at Miyano Akemi, made a gesture of "I'll go answer the phone", and stood up and went to the balcony.
Fujiwara Yu swiped the screen of his phone and quickly answered the call from Hondou Eikai, asking:
"Kil, why did you call me suddenly? Did something happen?"
"I just received some intelligence, and I thought you'd be interested, so I called you." Hondou Eikai looked around, making sure no one was paying attention, before lowering his voice and saying, "The organization is investigating Kudo Shinichi, but the details are unclear."
Fujiwara Yuu's expression changed slightly upon hearing this news. He recalled the email he'd received last time confirming that Kudo Shinichi was alright. Could it be that... he was being targeted by the organization? Or had he witnessed the organization's transaction at Dorobiga Paradise?
"Well, if you have any news about Kudo Shinichi, please let me know."
"Okay, I still have work to do here, so I'll hang up first."
After hanging up the phone, Fujiwara Yu quickly opened his address book and sent a tentative email to Kudo Shinichi. He was worried about what might happen if he called him rashly. After all, he had no idea where he was... at least he couldn't be at home. According to the organization's style, they might have already gone to his house to investigate.
As there was no reply to the email, Fujiwara Yu had to return to the restaurant to have breakfast, otherwise it would be a waste of the meal that Mingmei carefully prepared.
"Is something important happening? Is there anything I can help with?" Miyano Akemi has always been good at observing people's expressions. She keenly caught Fujiwara Yu's deliberately controlled emotions and asked while holding the milk.
As expected, there was no way to hide it from her, but the current situation really meant that she couldn't help.
Fujiwara Yu shook his head. He pulled out his chair, picked up his knife and fork, and said in a deep voice:
"It's best for you to avoid any contact with the organization for now. There's an expert in disguise in the organization. Although you've learned the art well, your voice hasn't changed at all. You can't tell people you're a beautiful mute, can you?"
"Well, voice changing is a problem. It would be great if there was something that could change the voice with just one click~"
Fujiwara Yu raised his eyebrows and thought to himself, "It would be great if there was something so convenient," when his cell phone rang. He quickly picked it up and looked at the contents of the email.
Kudo Shinichi: Brother Takashi, what's the point of sending me these ingredients? Is this a new code? Or did you send it to the wrong person?
You can reply to emails, and the tone of the emails is consistent with Kudo himself.
Well... he should be safe now, at least he hasn't been caught by the organization.
