Ke Xue: Ai-chan and I have an agreement

Tama River, Tokyo.

The night breeze blows gently across the river bank, bringing a slight coolness.

The moonlight sprinkled like water, illuminating the ripples on the river and reflecting two figures.

On the shore, an adult and a child were quietly looking at the calm water, each of them seemed to have their own thoughts.

"Ms. Haibara, it's almost twelve o'clock. It's time to go back and rest." Liu Ying glanced at her watch and spoke to Haibara Ai beside her.

Huihara Ai ignored him, her lake blue eyes flickering with a faint light.

Her eyes stayed in the distance, as if she was thinking about something important.

Seeing that she was indifferent, Liu Ying was about to urge her again, but she heard these words in her ears.

"Actually... I haven't slept so late in a long time."

Liu Ying was a little confused after hearing this.

So... shouldn't you go to bed?

Huiyuan Ai spoke to herself again: "Before, I was always worried that someone would come to arrest me, and I was afraid of being found by the organization."

"I live in fear every day and dare not sleep too deeply at night."

Her voice was calm and indifferent, but it revealed an unspeakable sadness.

"Even though Yuichi saved me, I couldn't sleep peacefully for a while."

"Later, Yuichi did a lot of things for me, gave me a sense of security, and urged me to go to bed on time."

"Especially the little things in life, even the simplest food, clothing, housing and transportation, he would arrange them in an orderly manner."

"Now, I can finally sleep peacefully. I don't have to worry about being hunted or being on guard all the time."

Willow Warbler listened quietly, a trace of pity welling up in her heart, but this feeling was an unnecessary trouble for her.

But this seemingly strong girl hides such a heavy past and burden deep in her heart.

"All of this was brought to me by Yuichi."

“Knowing him is the luckiest thing that has ever happened to me.”

Huibara Ai suddenly smiled faintly, the breeze blew on her face, and her cheeks turned lightly red, just like peach blossoms in spring, delicate and lovely.

Looking at her, it seemed like she was recalling a lot of good memories.

Somehow, when Liu Ying saw Huibara Ai with a happy look on her face, she felt a little bitter in her heart.

She could see that Haibara Ai and Shiina Yuichi were completely in love with each other and there was only each other in their eyes.

This is such a desirable love.

Especially for her.

In a trance, a figure appeared in Liu Ying's mind.

His fate and his own were completely opposite to those of these two people.

At this time, Haibara Ai was still talking to herself.

“So, you did the right thing today.”

"Thank you, Willow Warbler."

"I'm grateful that you pulled me out of that situation."

Haibara Ai turned her head and a hint of gratitude flashed in her eyes.

Liu Ying smiled slightly and gently touched her head.

"You're welcome, Miss Huibara. This is what I should do."

"Besides, I will always be here to protect you whenever you need me."

The two smiled at each other, then turned and left together.

The breeze brings idle words.

"Although I am grateful to you, please don't touch my head next time."

"…I'm sorry, don't you like it?"

"I feel uncomfortable when other people touch my head except Yuichi."

"……All right."

At the same time, far away in Osaka, Yuichi Shiina was slowly descending in the elevator.

The cuckoo on the 41st floor was also the first to notice that the normal elevator was in operation.

Logically, the elevators from the 20th to the 40th floors have been blocked.

So this elevator can only go as low as him.

It is unlikely that people at the top will run down.

Unless they have to come down for some purpose.

For example...the angry snake servants wanted to cut him into pieces.

The cuckoo's mind raced, and then he quickly ran to a corner and hid there, quietly watching the ever-changing indicator light.

With a 'ding' sound.

The elevator finally stopped on the 41st floor.

it is as expected!

Cuckoo's expression turned a little ugly.

Why is it that my intuition is so accurate when I am at my lowest point?

At the same time, a hint of ruthlessness flashed in his eyes.

Since you insist on killing me, I have no choice but to kill you.

The violent factor in the cuckoo's body began to surge.

Fortunately, in order to trap the cuckoo, Da Mu turned off the lights on an entire floor.

It also provides convenience for him.

In this way, the success rate of his plan to kill these people increased by several percent.

As the elevator door slowly opened.

With the help of the light in the elevator, a blood-stained figure appeared in the cuckoo's eyes.

Just one person?

The cuckoo couldn't figure out what Oki was doing.

But if there is only one person, he still has a chance to fight back.

Shiina Yuichi came to the 41st floor and slowly wandered around in this dark environment.

After searching for a while, I didn't find any trace of the cuckoo.

This made him a little impatient.

So he just shouted, "Come out, cuckoo, I'm coming for you!"

The cry made the cuckoo's hair stand on end.

This person...is not a snake servant!
