After traveling through Detective Conan, I became a popular person

Hoshino Hitomi asked Akai Shuichi curiously: "How long have you been in the United States?"

Akai Shuichi answered truthfully: "Two days."

A hint of surprise flashed in Hoshino Hitomi's eyes. It was such a coincidence that she ran into Shuichi Akai just two days after he arrived in the United States.

Hoshino Hitomi thought for a moment and decided to test it first, so she asked, "Akai, are you coming to the United States with your family?"

Akai Shuichi hesitated for a moment, shook his head and denied: "No."

"Then Akai, would you like to come and stay at my house for a while? I live alone and have no one to chat with me. It's very boring." Hoshino Hitomi suggested with a smile.

As soon as the words fell, the moonlight penetrated the clouds and sprinkled on the earth, and the city that was originally full of darkness finally had some light.

The soft moonlight quietly reflected on Hoshino Hitomi's face, and Akai Shuichi finally saw Hoshino Hitomi's face clearly.

Hoshino Hitomi's face is enough to make people feel amazing at a glance.

Hoshino Hitomi has beautiful facial features. When she is not smiling, her eyebrows are as light as distant mountains. When she smiles, her eyes are bright and charming. Her skin is fair and delicate, and there is a lively look in her ruby-like eyes.

Shuichi Akai turned his head away and stopped looking at Hitomi Hoshino, and rejected Hitomi Hoshino's proposal without any hesitation.

Akai Shuichi said with his thin lips: "I have my own place to live and I can support myself. Besides, I am not a good chatterbox, so you don't have to think about how to repay me. Saving you is just a matter of convenience for me."

When Hoshino Hitomi heard Akai Shuichi's low and crisp tone, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes. She stood there for a moment, and then her thoughts gradually drifted away. She lowered her eyes and began to think.

Shuichi Akai turned out to be more resilient than she had imagined. At the age of fifteen, he was able to support himself by working part-time while attending school. He could be said to be a very good earner of a living.

But when she was in the organization in her previous life, didn't she hear rumors that he was a gigolo? It seems that the rumors were also wrong.

Hoshino Hitomi sighed softly and thought to herself: If I had known earlier, I would not have believed the rumors and they misled me.

Shuichi Akai lowered his eyes and stared at Hitomi Hoshino, and saw that she was in a daze with a dull look and didn't speak. In his view, he just felt that Hitomi Hoshino was secretly sad.

Akai Shuichi thought that it was because of the tone of his voice that irritated her. After all, she was just a little girl...

A trace of regret flashed across Akai Hideichi's eyes, and then he opened his mouth slightly, ready to comfort Hoshino Hitomi.

"are you OK……"

Hoshino Hitomi immediately came back to her senses, clasped her hands together, tilted her head and smiled at Akai Shuichi, apologetically saying: "I'm sorry, Akai. I talked a little too much just now, but thank you Akai-kun for saving my life just now."

Akai Hide was stunned for a few seconds, then shook his head slightly and said, "It's okay."

Akai Shuichi was silent for a moment, then said calmly: "If you have nothing to do, let's say goodbye."

Hoshino Hitomi smiled and nodded slightly, saying, "Okay then, I hope to see you again in the future, Akai~"

"Ah."

Akai Hide nodded slightly, responded indifferently, then turned and left.

After Akai Shuichi walked away, he couldn't help but look back and glance at Hoshino Hitomi's receding back, thinking: Will we meet again in the future? Interesting girl...

-

Soon, electricity was restored and the whole city became bright and prosperous again.

As for the bomber who caused the power outage in the entire city, he was also arrested.

Hoshino Hitomi doesn’t know the reason why the bomber caused a power outage in the entire city, but it’s okay as long as it’s not targeted at her.

Hoshino Hitomi walked slowly and aimlessly on the street, admiring the surrounding scenery from time to time.

In Hoshino Hitomi's mind, Xiaoyi's voice came: "Character to be captured: Akai Shuichi, favorability is 20."

Xiaoyi asked Hoshino Hitomi in confusion: "Is it really okay for the host to let him go like this? We may not see each other again in the United States in the future."

Hoshino Hitomi said to Xiaoyi nonchalantly: "If you rush for success, you will mess things up. Of course, I have a reason for doing this."

Xiaoyi asked in confusion: "What's the reason?"

Hoshino Hitomi explained: "Although I didn't have much contact with Akai in my previous life, I don't know him very well. But from the conversation with him just now, I can see that he is the same as me, a person with a strong heart."

Hoshino Hitomi continued, "A person with a strong heart will not easily accept help from others, because he may think that others think he is weak and give him charity. Of course, I don't want him to think that I am the kind of person who gives him charity because I feel sorry for him."

"Besides, since Akai came to the United States penniless, he should have a part-time job to earn money at night. If I disturb him at this time, it will delay his work."

"Xiaoyi, you should have heard the conversation between him and me just now. He didn't even want to stay at my house for a while. Not to mention that I wanted to give him money to support him. Even if he did save my life tonight, he would not accept my money for it."

Xiaoyi couldn't help but mutter, "Akai Shuichi is really weird... It's really hard to understand."

Hearing this, Hoshino Hitomi couldn't help but chuckle and nodded in agreement: "Yes, that's right."

Xiao Yi changed the subject and said, "But I think he seems to care about the host. When the host was on the bridge just now, he was always paying attention to the host from a distance."

"So when the host was about to fall into the river, he rushed over and saved the host in the first place."

A trace of embarrassment flashed across Hoshino Hitomi's face, the corners of her mouth twitched slightly, and she said helplessly: "Although I am very grateful that he saved my life."

"But when I think about the fact that Shuichi Akai saw me talking to the man who stole my phone on the bridge, I don't have the face to face him, not to mention that I'm pretending to be someone with connections to the richest man in the United States..."

Xiaoyi comforted: "Host, don't be sad. There are not so many audiences in life."

Hearing this, Hoshino Hitomi smiled in relief and said, "That's true. Thank you, Xiaoyi."

Xiao Yi felt a little guilty and said, "Hehe...it's good that the host doesn't care."

In fact, Xiaoyi hadn't told Hitomi Hoshino yet. When Shuichi Akai heard Hitomi Hoshino seriously fooling the man who stole her cell phone on the bridge, Shuichi Akai couldn't help but chuckle from a distance.

Xiaoyi was afraid that after telling this to Hitomi Hoshino, she would be even more embarrassed and unable to raise her head when facing Shuichi Akai in the future.

Hoshino Hitomi: ...

Hoshino Hitomi: That’s very thoughtful of you.

-

A few hours after returning home, Hoshino Hitomi lay on the soft big bed in the room with a look of despair on her face.

"I couldn't contact them after that... It's still a headache. All kinds of bad things happen to me." Hoshino Hitomi muttered to herself calmly.

Xiao Yi laughed awkwardly and consoled him, "Host, cheer up. When the time comes, go back and explain to them. I'm sure they will listen."

The corners of Hoshino Hitomi's mouth twitched, and she said with a lack of confidence: "I hope so."
