In the end, I went to Teitan Elementary School.
Considering the sudden closure of this elementary school, Jiang Lai felt that it was most likely the work of the world's will... If Kurosawa Akira transferred to another school this time, he would probably receive another closure notice.
Something as strange as the Death Halo appeared!
So forget it, I'd better go to Teitan Elementary School before I get a strange reputation.
Jiang Lai's half-moon eyes.
Anyway, the one who is more scared... is probably Conan.
——Just cross yourself silently in advance.
"When you transfer to a new school, remember to get along well with your classmates and study hard." Jiang Lai reminded them at the gate of Teitan Elementary School the next day.
"I know."
Kurosawa Akira's appearance...will attract Conan's attention sooner or later. Instead of being repeatedly tested, it's better to take the initiative to infiltrate the inside.
Jiang Lai joked maliciously: "If someone avoids you or is afraid, you must actively get close to him, use your enthusiasm to melt his ice, and eliminate his hostility!"
Kurosawa Akira's eyes narrowed slightly: "...To be honest, why would anyone be afraid of me? I'm just an ordinary transfer student."
Jiang Lai stroked his chin and murmured, "Well... to be honest, I was also quite scared when I first met you."
Kurosawa Akira: “Huh??”
"Well, it doesn't matter. Anyway, remember what I said." After a pause, Jiang Lai added, "Of course, it's only for boys. If it's a girl, don't scare her."
Just tease Conan, don't scare Ai.
"So why are you afraid of me..." Kurosawa Akira tilted his head slightly, "Okay, I get it."
After waving goodbye, Jiang Lai watched Kurosawa Akira walk into the campus with his small schoolbag on his back, and he also returned to the car.
"You seemed a little worried before?" Jing Guang, who was in spirit form, sat in the passenger seat of the car. The sunlight penetrated his body and shone on the seat. "What's wrong with this school?"
"Well... I feel like there will be trouble." Jiang Lai exhaled, "Mainly because of Kurosawa Akira's appearance..."
At this point, both of them understood.
Jiang Lai once wanted to change Kurosawa Akira's hair color, or at least do some disguise.
But we soon discovered that, just like how Ai's hairstyle and hair color remained unchanged in the original novel, perhaps for the sake of audience recognition and the advancement of the plot, these are unchangeable factors maintained by the world's will.
Jiang Lai: “…”
walk slowly.
Jiang Lai and Jing Guang both knew that the other was aware of the existence of the organization. Of course, it took them a very long time to get used to each other before they could reveal it to each other.
When Jiang Lai first met the soul body Jing Guang, the other party was slightly surprised, but introduced himself with a gentle smile - using a pseudonym he made up.
Jiang Lai: “…”
After a long period of testing and confirmation, they finally decided to be honest with each other in order to better cooperate.
Morobushi Jingguang was shocked by what Jiang Lai knew. Jiang Lai couldn't explain the comics and could only use the hacker excuse to explain it away.
"To be honest, I once wondered if he was a shrunken Gin disguised as a child." Morofushi Jingguang shrugged and said.
"Me too." Jiang Lai paused, "But then I thought... even if Gin became smaller, he wouldn't be able to really concentrate on doing his homework - especially drawing small animals for the hand-copied newspaper."
Zhu Fu Jingguang twitched his lips, remained silent for a second, and answered seriously: "...You are right."
Jiang Lai touched his chin and said, "So, if they look so similar, there is another possibility. It could be...his child?"
"If Kurosawa Akira is really Gin's son, then it would be a shame for me to let him call me 'brother'," Jiang Lai tilted his head, "otherwise, just call me - 'Grandpa'."
Morofushi Kagemitsu: “??!”
How dare you take advantage of Gin's points! .jpg
"Ahem, just kidding, I'm not that brave..." Jiang Lai held the steering wheel and looked forward, "Come to think of it, that guy doesn't look like someone who would find a partner, or leave a child behind."
If there really was one, he would be very curious about who Kurosawa Akira's mother was.
——A truly strong man! Jiang Lai sighed in his heart.
But no matter what, the person who named Kurosawa Akira must have known Gin's real name - at least his last name.
And the meaning of using the word Zhao as a name is...
"Asexual reproduction?" Zhu Fu Jingguang spread his hands and continued, "It may be an organizational experiment."
"Maybe." Jiang Lai hesitated for a few seconds, "If it is an organizational experiment... then what is the purpose? Does Kurosawa Akira have any other secrets?"
"I can't tell for now." Zhu Fu Jingguang murmured, "He gives me the same feeling as an ordinary child."
"......Me too." Jiang Lai retracted his gaze.
He knew there must be something special, but he couldn't feel anything different about Kurosawa Akira at the moment.
But, it is impossible for the organization to just create an ordinary child, right?
Let the second generation of Labor Model Gin continue to serve the organization? His descendants will be endless. Jiang Lai twitched his lips.
But... they won't be allowed to roam freely.
"Anyway..." Morobushi Kagemitsu shrugged, "No matter which option it is, Gin himself probably doesn't know."
"Well, it's true," Jiang Lai nodded, "but I don't know why this child... is registered under my name."
What if I really run into Big Gin in the future?
"Maybe the situation was urgent and the other party didn't have time to choose other options."
The strange neighbor across the street at that time, whose whereabouts became a mystery, was away for almost a whole month, and then temporarily sent Kurosawa Akira to his own home.
One rainy night was the last time the neighbor came to see him. He could not tell the gender, covered his face, and changed his voice. The neighbor said to him: "... I don't know if I can come back, but I'll give it to you first."
Jiang Lai thought that he would just help take care of the child for a few days, so he nodded and agreed. But the next day, he received a notice from the police station - the child was now truly registered under his name.
Jiang Lai: "..." How did it succeed without my involvement in all those procedures?
Jiang Lai looked at the silver-haired boy who blinked at him. The other's dark green eyes were like some kind of emerald.
Even though it's a big problem, we can't just ignore this kid...
He finally rubbed the boy's head and said with a smile: "Okay, Kurosawa Akira, let's continue living together until your parents come back to pick you up."
From then on, a new life of raising a child began.
"Anyway, I hope I can still live a peaceful life." Jiang Lai stepped on the accelerator and prepared to turn and go to work at Teitan High School.
Although the hope of a peaceful life is slim...
"A peaceful life..." Morobushi Jingguang looked forward with his blue-gray eyes. "Yes." He chuckled, "It's a rare and beautiful thing."
Jiang Lai's daily work is relatively leisurely because it is an elective course, so the lesson preparation work is relatively easy.
In his spare time, he opened his phone again and read the comics.
The flow speed of the world here is different from that of the Three Times. After glancing at the update icon on the comic, Jiang Lai clicked on it decisively.
The existence of the soul bodies is not depicted in the manga, and their conversations with the soul bodies Matsuda and Kagemitsu are either blurred or removed.
As expected, Kurosawa Akira appeared in the video, as well as myself, who was bending over and giving instructions at the school gate.
The exact words were not drawn, only the enlarged corner of the mouth showed a mysterious smile.
Jiang Lai: “…” Don’t make it look like a villain with a shadowy smile!
He could already foresee the strange speculations from the three forums!
[Ahh! A new character has appeared again! Modo Modo!!]
[The front face is also very good-looking! It is a clean and refreshing young man with black hair and brown eyes (drooling Shiba Inu.jpg)! Although it vaguely feels a bit of a black side...]
[It must be that smile! They magnified it on purpose as a hint! The official also added a shadow background! ]
[As expected of a new series where the Red team doesn’t necessarily win over the Black team, they added a character to the Black team right from the start. Wow, this is really exciting. I’m already rubbing my hands with excitement.]
Jiang Lai: “……!” I knew it!
He quietly registered an account #大预测家# and posted a message on the online forum: [I think we should not make a conclusion yet. Maybe it is another official misleading in the early stage. In the original Conan series, when choosing between Vermode and Bourbon, wasn’t it often misleading? I think the new character is actually a good person! ]
[Eh? But now there is no choice between three... and I feel like the black side is more interesting (dog head.jpg). ]
[One more thing, how exciting! A new series is about to start! Conan is in danger! Hahahahaha! ]
【＃大预测家＃: ...Not exciting! How nice it would be to be a passerby. 】
[He has appeared twice, so he is definitely not a stranger~! I look forward to seeing new characters adding more scenes~]
Jiang Lai: “…” No!
[So what's up with that kid who looks like Gin? It can't be Gin. I feel like even if Gin shrunk, he wouldn't be able to carry his schoolbag to school obediently...! Little Gin is such a good kid! (Space Cat's Thoughts Sublime.jpg)]
[Hahahaha, shouldn't we be paying attention to Teitan Elementary School? It looks like this kid is a new transfer. Light a candle for Conan who is about to face the Gin Kid lookalike.]
[Hahaha, you reminded me above, whether this kid is Magin or not, Conan will be scared, right? hhh]
[It’s terrible, it’s too terrible, and there’s also Xiao Ai’s alcohol detector——]
[Oh, in that case, we can actually tell whether this child is Gin based on Ai?]
Jiang Lai was slightly stunned.
Can Kurosawa Akira's gang... detect the organization's aura?
Although the true relationship between Kurosawa Akira and Gin is still unclear, his personality should be that of an ordinary child who has grown up to this point, right?
Maybe there won’t be any trace of an organization…?
[Thinking about it this way, the next update will definitely be exciting! Conan, facing the shrunken version of "Gin" on the spot, Ai's alcohol detection system is activated! ]
[Looking forward to the next episode! I feel sorry for Conan and Ai in advance. I also want to know the name of the child who looks like Gin! There should be a self-introduction~]
[Squat! I want to know more about the new character, the black-haired young man. At least tell me his name. (cat star eyes.jpg)]
【Plus one! I am looking forward to it too! 】
Jiang Lai: “…” He turned off the phone silently.
Well, not all is lost.
At least after being reminded by the forum crowd, I remembered Ai's alcohol detector function. I wonder how she will react when facing Kurosawa Akira.
Jiang Lai touched his chin.
But... the reaction may not be due to alcohol allergy, but simply silver-haired green-eyed ptsd!
The author has something to say:
【】 is a dialogue from three forums.
"" refers to the past tense dialogue in memory.
In the scientific world, a month has 3,000 days, but this month has spring, summer, autumn, and winter, and the dates even rotate randomly from January to December.
Jiang Lai: I don’t quite understand it, but I am deeply shocked.jpg
