【Fast New】London Fog

"Ah, big detective, why is your face haggard, did you stay up all night last night?"

"Yo, Miyano..."

Kudo Shinichi sat in a corner of the library with a cup of coffee.That square table was basically the exclusive seat for him and Miyano Shiho.By the window, the lighting is good, and it is not very conspicuous in the corner.It's all good, except for the sentence that Miyano said when he saw him here for the first time, "The great detective came to sit in front of the bookshelf of the medical department, isn't it suspicious?"

Well, as expected of Miyano.As Kudo-kun's one of the few female friends who often communicates with, Miyano Shiho is definitely not in the category of ordinary girls. After all, the existence that can make a big detective fear three points is not easy to provoke.Just looking at this woman in a beige sweater and brown hair, I probably can't think of the legendary figure in the Department of Medicine of Dongda University.Kudo always felt that she was developing a mysterious drug. When asked about this topic, the other party just said lightly, "Yes, it can rejuvenate people by ten years. Do you want to do a clinical trial for me?"

So the topic ended, and he never brought it up again.

"Why didn't you see Kuroba coming with you?"

"..."

"Looking at the tangled expression on your face, did he confess to you?"

"...I didn't know you were such a gossip, Miyano-senpai."

Every time I add the word senpai, I know that Miyano has hit Kudo's sore spot again.Miyano, who has the observation ability not inferior to the 314 detectives, and the female-specific keen perception, has always been able to capture the subtle moments of the great detective and the magician who is his medical school student.

"Send me a text message in the morning, just say something nice and ask me to help him ask the professor for leave, so? I have the right to wonder what happened to you last night, right?"

"...It's nothing, there was a party outside, and he accidentally drank too much."

"careless?"

"Let me tell you... Miyano, you are really not cute at all."

"I'm sorry, but if I don't speak directly, there are two dull guys who don't know how long it will take to get the result."

"Who wants to have a result! I have already said that my relationship with him is not the kind of relationship you think!"

"Oh? What kind of relationship am I thinking of?"

"...Let's talk about it," Kudo Shinichi propped his chin in one hand, turned his face awkwardly, and looked out the window.

"Wouldn't it be weird if there was something to do with it?"

Wouldn't it be weird?He is obviously a boy, but he cannot be treated like Hattori and the others.There is obviously a young boy who is determined to protect him all the time, but he can't help but want to get closer.Obviously, it is not easy enough to suppress and adjust your mood by yourself, and the other party will throw a bomb unexpectedly.Thinking of the heat in his ears from the kiss the night before, if it was a joke, it would be too much.

That's what I told Yuanzi, the girl who felt that she couldn't pretend she didn't see it, and couldn't help but come to ask—it's nothing, it's just a bad joke, so there's no need to mention it to Xiaolan, and don't think too much about it, everything It's all a joke of that irritating guy, just to see him stunned.

It was cruel.

"One or two, both are idiots."

Instead of the mocking tone of the past, Miyano Shiho's final words were very soft, which made people feel comforted.There was no intention to delve into it, and the other party didn't have the courage to confide in it, so the two spread out their books and computers as usual and started to do their job as a college student—study, but one of them was obviously absent-minded.

When I go back at noon, I should ask Kuroba clearly, "Why did you do that last night", like that.Kudo Shinichi secretly decided.Although I will definitely not get the response I want——

Because he didn't know what kind of answer he wanted to hear.

"I'm surprised, Kuroba-kun. You are the only person who can make the detective so unconfident."

The phone vibrated under the pillow with a new text message.Kuroba Kaito slowly took out the phone and took a look in front of him, but he didn't react for a long time.Slide your finger down, obviously the content of the last text message is "My Lady Queen, help me to ask Professor Sakata for the leave of the morning experiment class, please please!"Why do I get such an unclear reply...

Kuroba Kaito turned over and buried his face under the quilt again, but the back of his head was hit hard by a pillow.

"Really, how long are you going to stay on Kudo's bed..." Hattori's voice said, "Wake up, it's already noon!"

"What about Shinichi?"

"The library, I said Kuroba, last night..."

"Ahhhhh I don't listen!!!"

I saw that figure jumping off the bed and rushing into the bathroom quickly, leaving only Heiji Hattori who rolled his eyes, with an expression of "this guy is really a three-year-old kid, right?"

But the reality is like this, what has happened, the established facts will not change, and the things that should be faced will be faced sooner or later.Compared to waiting for Kudo-kun to come back, the person Kuroba waited for first was Aoko Nakamori.

When the phone rang, Kuroba had just dried her hair and was about to go to the refrigerator for food.When he saw the name of the caller, he took the pudding's hand that was hanging in mid-air, and put the pudding back.

"...Yo, Aoko, what's wrong?"

"I came to look for you thinking Kaito was about to wake up... There is something I'm really concerned about, so—"

"so?"

"So I'm downstairs in your dormitory, idiot, come down quickly, I don't have much time!"

"...Ahhhhhh?!"

Some hurriedly put on their coats, put on their shoes and trot downstairs, and soon saw the girl standing under the tree.Although he was wearing a coat, he could see that he was still wearing a light blue police academy uniform underneath, and he seemed to have sneaked out in a hurry.

"Is there anything you can't say on the phone, why do you have to make a special trip here?"

"Last night..." Aoko Nakamori seemed a little hesitant.Although I have thought about how to ask many times on the way here, but it is really too delicate a topic, I don't know how to speak.

"So...last night, during the ten seconds that Sonoko told everyone to close their eyes, Kaito you...kissed Kudo-kun, right—"

Black Feather was stunned for a moment.

What, did you see it?

"Ah...that's—"

"It's because," the girl interrupted him, "it's because I don't want to get a perfunctory answer, so I came to ask in person. So no matter what Kaito thinks, I will listen."

But with your expression now, what should I say?

Confusion, nervousness, and a little bit of sadness all piled up on her face.Kuroba Kaito fell silent.Putting away the usual beating but relaxed smile, he quickly organized his words in his mind, how to say so as to tell the truth while taking the other person's feelings into consideration—that the kiss was completely in accordance with his own wishes Yes, it's not a joke that I can't think about others anymore.

"As expected, did I get hated, I..."

Although she was still smiling reluctantly, the girl's voice became softer and softer.

Instantly understood what she was misunderstanding, Kuroba couldn't laugh or cry, and quickly explained, "Idiot, what are you thinking!! You didn't do anything wrong, and we won't be bored with you until we hit a hundred years old of."

Meaning, kissing someone but not you doesn't mean you hate you, but—

Aoko Nakamori blinked and breathed a sigh of relief.While complaining in my heart that I was thinking wildly, at the same time, I had new questions.

"...Then why did you choose Kudo-kun? Wouldn't it be strange, then..."

Wouldn't it be weird?I will.

But what can I do, I just—

"I'm just one-sided, I just like him."

Winter, that is to say, as long as you stand outside for a short while, you will feel cold hands and feet.

Kudo Shinichi was carrying lunch for four, standing somewhere at the side door of the dormitory building, watching Kaito Kuroba from a distance finally holding the crying girl into his arms, and patted her on the head comfortingly .

I don't know what they said, and I don't want to guess carefully. He stood here for 3 minutes is already the limit.It's probably those topics that are going to be separated and will be missed very much.He shrank his neck, turned and entered the stairwell.

Wow, this damn weather is really cold.

It's chest cold, please, don't cool down anymore.
