The Buddhist way of life of Ke Xue Le Zi

Chapter 39: 1 Past and Accident

It is obvious that Hikaru Midorikawa and Mei Hoshimi have no blood relationship. Although both of them avoided talking about this topic, Mei Hoshimi's mixed-race features are too obvious, and Hikaru Midorikawa has a typical oriental appearance. Few people would believe if they forced an explanation that they are cousins.

Kudo Shinichi guessed that Mr. Midorikawa was asked to take care of Hoshimi Mei, and the person who asked him to do so must be the real guardian who was elusive. However, after knowing Hoshimi Mei for so long, he had never seen that guardian, and Hoshimi Mei had never even mentioned him.

He originally thought that the other person had died.

Isn't there often that kind of plot in novels, where the deceased elder is said to have gone to work abroad in order not to make the children sad?

Kudo Shinichi looked at Hoshimi Mei with an expression that said "You've read too many novels", raised his hand and scratched the back of his head, then looked away and laughed twice.

There's nothing that can be done about it, since that guy has never shown up and there's no news about him. Even Mr. Midorikawa has never mentioned him, not even once.

"So something happened to him? Even Mr. Midorikawa had to leave." And it was just a few days before this guy's birthday.

Kudo Shinichi didn't say the second half of the sentence. He was also a child whose parents were away from home all year round, but at least his parents still had time to come back to see him every year. No matter how busy they were, it was impossible for them to be so busy that they had no news at all, right?

Thinking of this, he said seriously: "Xinghai, your guardian is not doing illegal transactions, right?"

Wow, I guessed half of it right.

Should we say that he is worthy of being Kudo Shinichi?

"I don't know. He never told me, and Midorikawa never mentioned those things." The gray-haired boy turned off the running faucet, took out a tissue beside him to wipe the water stains on his hands, and his light gray-blue eyes turned slightly, reflecting the immature and still young face of the detective in front of him.

He took out the cell phone from his pocket and flipped through the email he had received before to show it to Kudo Shinichi. It was the email from Amuro Toru saying that Midorikawa had to leave for something and asked whether he needed to change the temporary guardian.

Below is his blunt reply.

He didn't expect this email to be useful in this way. He would be better off not making things difficult for Amuro Toru next time he comes. The gray-haired boy thought about the pile of data that was classified as unprocessed and thought it would be a good idea to find someone to take over as soon as possible.

Otherwise, Ricardo will have to deal with it, which is quite troublesome.

Xing Haimei was thinking about how to pass the mess to the next person, and she felt a lot more relieved after thinking about it, while Kudo Shinichi was thinking more.

He thought of the kidnapping case that shocked the Metropolitan Police Department.

At that time, he didn't know Xing Hai Meihu yet, but he had just heard that a few kidnappers dressed in black, with their faces covered and only their eyes exposed, kidnapped a mixed-race child in front of the gate of Teitan Elementary School that day.

After hearing about this, Yusaku Kudo called his friend who worked at the Metropolitan Police Department. After learning some of the circumstances, he believed that this was a planned kidnapping.

The kidnappers specifically chose the time period after school when there was a large flow of people, but they only took away one child. If it was abduction, it would be impossible for so many kidnappers to only take away one child. That would be kidnapping.

The kidnappers later tried to contact the child's guardian, which was also what Kudo Shinichi heard.

But let alone the kidnappers, even the school couldn’t contact the child’s parents, and even the police couldn’t find the guardian’s information.

It seems that they immigrated abroad, so their household registration information was also transferred, leaving only the children studying in Japan.

"No matter how busy you are at work, you can't completely ignore your children." After hearing about this, Kudo Yukiko expressed her opinion angrily and later took on a movie with a related theme.

It happened that Yusaku Kudo had finished writing his novel those days and was resting at home. The Metropolitan Police Department would ask him for help from time to time and listen to his opinions.

Kudo Shinichi listened to almost the entire case.

The police investigation did not lead to much progress. The kidnappers were repeat offenders who had eliminated all traces of their whereabouts. They could only try their best to expand the scope and get all the police forces in all areas to pay attention, but it was impossible to mobilize all the police forces to investigate this case.

Kudo Shinichi still remembers that when Kudo Yusaku received the call and asked about the progress of the case, the police officer on the other side said that the child ran away by himself and called the police. When he was found, he fell in an alley near the abandoned dock and fell into a coma due to excessive blood loss.

The next day after the person was found, the child's guardian rushed to the hospital, but it was not the irresponsible person who came, but a temporary guardian in name only.

When Shinichi Kudo saw the words from the temporary guardian in the email, he once again recalled the thought when he was young that the guardian's behavior was bad and too irresponsible.

In fact, this idea is very one-sided. Detectives should not be influenced by many personal opinions, which will hinder their pursuit of the truth, and the biggest obstacle comes from themselves.

Kudo Shinichi returned the phone to Xinghai Meihu, he sighed helplessly, opened the door and let in the two people who were almost stuck to the door panel.

Just now they both subconsciously lowered their voices, partly because they didn't want the two girls eavesdropping outside the door to hear them. The apartment has good sound insulation, and Midorikawa Hikaru hired someone to do special treatment two years ago.

The money spent was earned from doing missions in Scotland.

Suzuki Sonoko almost lost her balance, luckily Mao Lilan was quick to rescue her. She raised her eyes to the two boys staring at her, laughed twice and said dryly: "Well, you have been in for too long, we just... just take a look, just take a look."

How can I stick it on the door?

Kudo Shinichi had guessed that the two people would eavesdrop, so he didn't react. Instead, Xinghai Mei smiled calmly. The gray-haired boy's light gray-blue eyes were filled with a smile like broken gold, and his light-colored eyelashes fluttered gently twice, like a butterfly about to spread its wings.

"Thank you for worrying about me so much, but it's okay, things will be resolved soon." After saying this, the boy continued to ask everyone to go out. What was going on? They were all crowded in the bathroom.

"Okay, I'll let you go this time." Suzuki Sonoko put her hands on her hips and made a coquettish expression. Then she pushed Mouri Ran out briskly, saying, "Okay, okay, let's just leave it at that for now."

"Wait, huh? Sonoko, wait..." Mouri Ran still looked back worriedly, but her view was blocked by Suzuki Sonoko, so she couldn't see the expression of the gray-haired boy.

Kudo Shinichi put his hands in his pockets and turned his gaze away from the two girls. He was about to say something, but he saw the young man who was still standing in front of the sink with a pale face.

[The save point is repeated, data is loading. 】

[Insufficient energy, entering dormant state. ]

Xing Haiya felt his eyelids were heavy. He leaned against the cold porcelain countertop of the sink, and a bright blue countdown began to play in front of his eyes.

"Are you okay Xinghai? Xinghai?!"

【2. 】

"Xiaolan! Call an ambulance!"

Xing Hai Ya felt that his thoughts were almost stagnant. He could hardly think of why he should call an ambulance, but he clearly cursed the system as rubbish in his mind.

If only he could wake up.

We must dismantle that data.
