Chapter 231 Twenty-five Gachapon

"Is it possible?"

Matsuda Jinpei took a deep breath, pretending that his hands were not shaking, and dropped the cigarette he was about to hold on the ground. He said in a heavy voice: "What you just said was actually 'maybe it was a bus (バスたぶん)'? Did you meet on the bus?"

There was a hint of sympathy in Akae Nazuki's eyes, but in the end she ruthlessly shattered Matsuda Jinpei's fantasy: "No, I was talking about the 'bathtub', you added it yourself."

It’s true that I added it myself, but, but it’s because what I heard was too incredible, and I simply couldn’t believe that this was the answer?

At this moment, the four people surrounding him couldn't help but complain in their heads as if they were interrogating a prisoner, and their complaints completely overlapped.

"Sorry, Xiao Nayue...ah, can I call you that?" Hagiwara skillfully launched a puppy eye attack. Although he was very big, he didn't make people feel oppressive when he got close.

I have shouted so many times just now as if nothing had happened. Don't you think it is too late to ask now? ...As expected of a second-year graduate student, he has mastered the method of special attack against him in any world.

After thinking about it, Chi Jiang Na Yue seemed to be thinking about it, and then raised the corner of her mouth to raise a gentle smile: "It's okay, it's okay."

The reactions of the four people around were exactly as Akae Natsuki had predicted. The two people who had been in close contact with the detective for a while were fine, but Matsuda Jinpei still rubbed the goose bumps on his arms uncomfortably.

But if the two members of the undercover team were not undercover with their upbringing, Chi Jiang Na Yue guessed that they would have wanted to jump two meters high on the spot like a cat with a cucumber behind it.

Especially Morofushi Kagemitsu.

When Akae Nayue thought of this, the smile on his face became more genuine: who knew that this expression of his was originally copied from Hiro-kun in Scottish mode?

——Calling by the name of Furuya Rei, playing the character of Morobushi Kagemitsu, and having the face of Akae Nazuki, this is the complete setting of the detective to the outside world so far.

It's no wonder that Toru Amuro and the other two didn't notice it at all before. The main reason is that he only deliberately reveals this personality setting when dealing with the Metropolitan Police Department and strangers. Normally, he is too lazy to change the character setting and just plays himself. When he is in a good mood, he is "Akae Nazuki", and when he is in a bad mood, he is "Kalua".

Conan was initially startled by his occasional indifference, but later on he was able to ignore it perfectly, and when he showed his Kalua face, he would still calmly nestle in his lap and read mystery novels.

After initially gaining the memories of his time in the police academy, Akae Nazuki had written a profile of himself in this world, so he knew very well that in the eyes of his friends, Kaluuya in the police academy period was nothing more than a little devil who looked cold but was actually evil.

Come on, that was the killer Kaluya who didn't lose his memory and wasn't sent home by the teacher. These idiots were able to become friends with him within half a year, which even surprised Akae Nazuki himself.

Of course, with a character like this, it's impossible for others to let down their guard so quickly, after all, the situation was special back then... In addition, considering that the name Furuya Rei has already been used, the really bad-humored Akae Nazuki finalized the final script.

Isn't this interesting? They don't remember their names or their past, but they still have the marks of friendship in just six months... In a sense, these five idiots are really amazing.

Just as Chijiang Nayue expected, just now it was Morobushi Jingguang who was looking at his childhood friend with a subtle gaze, but now the situation has changed and the person being looked at subtly has become Morobushi Jingguang himself.

He might have to be thankful that he never turned on the Scottish mode in front of Matsuda and Hagiwara, otherwise he would have been stared at sympathetically by the other two people except himself, just like Amuro Toru.

It's just that the detective had never shown this attitude to them before, why did he suddenly...

Morofushi Jingguang thought: The prerequisite for being able to play the role of Scotland is that the other party has met Scotland.

That's the problem.

Where did Chi Jiang Na Yue, who had "died" seven years ago, meet Scotland?

Hagiwara Kenji, who was still unaware of this, cleared his throat and asked the others, "So, why was it in the bathtub? Did you meet in a bathhouse... or a hot spring hotel?"

If you calm down and think about it carefully, there are reasonable reasons for Chijiang Nayue to appear in the bathtub.

The black-haired, red-eyed detective seemed unable to understand what the others were so confused about, and refuted the speculation in a very calm and matter-of-fact tone: "No, to be precise, I was in the bathtub of Kudo's house when I woke up."

"Because it was late at night and I had no other options, and I had no clothes to wear, I could only borrow Shinichi's clothes temporarily."

The detective didn't think there was anything wrong with what he said. He frowned and deleted some inappropriate things when he said the latter part: "Later, when I went out to investigate the situation, I happened to meet Conan who was returning home... Anyway, he picked me up like this."

...What exactly did you omit? I'm concerned about it! The four people's thoughts were synchronized again.

But after Matsuda complained in his heart, he frowned imperceptibly.

In fact, even though the detective's question of 'classmates in police academy' did not receive an answer because the two undercover agents avoided the topic and interrupted him, the identities of the four people in front of him were already obvious to him, so he did not mind talking about these things and regarded it as an exchange of intelligence.

The detective can infer from his physical condition and habits that he was a police academy student before he met Conan, but at the same time, what he didn't tell Conan is that he can certainly feel that he has killed people - a police academy student who has killed people, is that a joke?

Ignoring this part, the four people in front of him were probably his good friends from the same period seven years ago, and the name Furuya Rei probably belonged to the blond-haired gentleman who always looked at him with strange eyes.

From Kaluya's perspective, standing in front of him were two police undercovers who would destroy the organization in the future. Kaluya would probably be extremely happy, right? And then he would wish them good luck in their work and longevity, and try to shoot the old man a hundred times or something?

Chijiang Nayue held back the urge to laugh.

Just thinking about it made him happy. It was really good. The old men in this world died worthily.

However, not only were other people's moods not as relaxed as Chijiang Nayue's now, but they were extremely heavy.

It's late at night, I wake up with no clothes on, and I have no memory. These factors are too bad... Are you serious?

First of all, Amuro Toru felt that he still needed to sort out the current known situation.

He reluctantly admitted that the detective was probably their deceased colleague, which was a good thing, but if Chi Jiang Na Yue was not dead, then he had faked his death? Could it be that he was carrying out another secret mission during the seven years of loss of contact?

Unfortunately, the only guy who could possibly tell them this information has lost his memory.

Is this a coincidence, or does someone not want Chijiang Nayue to reveal her experience?

Toru Amuro closed his eyes and pressed his temples with a headache.

No, there are too many questions, tangled in my mind like a ball of wool, and I can’t sort them out all at once.

There were two other people who had a similar headache as Toru Amuro, but the undercover team with more experience thought more, while Jinpei Matsuda went over the words thoroughly in his mind and almost blurted them out.

"...Have you been set up by a blackmailer?" Chi Jiang Na Yue was about to take out a lollipop to bite to relieve the itching of his teeth, but half a second after hearing this sentence and understanding its meaning, he froze.

very good.

Chijiang Nayue's smile became even gentler.

He really wasn't prepared to announce such shocking news so quickly. Everything should be done step by step. However, this curly-haired guy didn't seem to understand his painstaking efforts at all.

Then it's time to let Curly know the consequences of arranging the same period!

"To be precise, it should be called human trafficking."

The detective squints his eyes nonchalantly, as if what he said has nothing to do with him: "According to the information Conan and I investigated together, I was supposed to be traded to someone else, but something unexpected happened. During the transaction, I was accidentally taken away by that kid."

He lazily leaned back against the railing, his eyes unable to find a focus in the air. He looked like a kite that would break its string at any second, but no one knew whether the kite would fly away freely or fall to the ground after the string broke.

The detective commented in a tone of judging an object: "But even if it is a trade, I am probably being traded as a weapon. With my amnesia, my value lies in this aspect... Of course, I don't think I will be willing to be controlled if I have lost my memory, so the trading party must have some means behind the scenes to control me, or to control my batch of goods."

Before he could finish his words, the curly-haired young man, who had impatiently picked up another cigarette, tapped him on the forehead with great force.

"Hello."

Matsuda Jinpei was so shocked by the news of Akae Nazuki's death that he finished a cigarette. Even though he had taken some throat lozenges after smoking, his voice still sounded a little hoarse due to his emotions.

This sound successfully drew the gazes that were originally unfocused to him, and the empty crimson color crashed into the silent steel blue.

"Who said you are a weapon or a commodity? Forget those words." Matsuda Jinpei held back his anger and said in a calm voice, "You are Akae Nazuki, and you are just Akae Nazuki. No matter how much others say, it won't affect you, right? After all, you are a little bastard like you."

The only time Matsuda Jinpei and Akae Nazuki really got along was for those six months seven years ago, but those six months were enough for him to see more clearly than anyone else what kind of person Akae Nazuki was.

This person should stand under the bright sunshine and be admired by thousands of people. He should sit on the top of a hill piled with losers and be the big devil who will never be defeated by the brave. He should be the most beautiful star in the sky. It doesn't matter if he can't be the sun. Anyway, in their eyes, his existence itself is hot enough.

The only thing is that he shouldn't become a stone tablet, a line of words, a handful of ashes, shouldn't have such a look, shouldn't think that he is an object that can be admired by others.

"After all..." Jinpei Matsuda remembered what the guy had said to him seven years ago, and repeated it subconsciously.

"The harm will last for thousands of years."

Chijiang Nayue looked at the people from the other world at the same time and blinked.

Ah, the kite was caught.

He laughed sincerely, until tears came out of his eyes: "It's really hard to deal with. I'll just be the trouble."
