Ke Xue: Ai-chan and I have an agreement

Shiina Yu's family and Haibara Ai looked at the seven or eight dishes in front of them with their eyes sparkling.

Sweet and sour pork, traditional hotpot soup, eight-treasure winter melon soup, barbecued pork...

Shiina Yuichi brought two bowls of rice and sat next to Haibara Ai.

"It's time to eat." Shiina Yuichi said with a smile.

Haibara Ai took the bowl and started to eat the food in front of her. After a few bites, the expression on her little face showed great enjoyment.

"These are Cantonese dishes. Cantonese dishes focus on quality and taste. They are relatively light in flavor, and strive to be fresh and beautiful in lightness. They also change with the seasons. In summer and autumn, they tend to be light, while in winter and spring, they tend to be rich..."

Shiina Yuichi was very talkative today, and even explained the ingredients of these dishes in detail.

After eating a few bites, Huiyuan Ai put down her bowl and chopsticks, wiped the corners of her mouth and said, "Yuichi, will you hate us?"

We, of course, refers to her and Miyano Akemi.

Seeing Haibara Ai ask this, Shiina Yuichi turned his head. His expression was very gentle, but the sadness in his eyes was so obvious.

How could he hate the two sisters?

When he met Shuichi Akai at Miyano Akemi's place today, he guessed the other party's purpose.

Let the Miyano sisters participate in the witness protection program, bid farewell to Japan completely and go to other countries.

The most likely place is the United States where Shuichi Akai is.

Because he is an FBI investigator, the two sisters can be well protected.

This means that the two sisters will start a new life completely under the protection of the FBI, using new identities.

Likewise, this also means that the two sisters will not see him again until the winery is completely destroyed.

Like a stranger.

"Actually, it's not bad to go there." Shiina Yuichi spoke.

This is not because he is pretending, but because of his current situation.

Haibara Ai was exposed to the sight of the jinniao, and the situation within the scavenger organization was so strange.

There is also a force whose details are unknown and is watching closely.

Before, he was confident that he could protect the Miyano sisters.

But now, he is not sure.

Perhaps, accepting the witness protection program is also a good decision.

At least your life won't be in danger.

But why did he feel unwilling?

To be precise, he didn't want to be separated from his two sisters, and he finally had his family again.

He was greedy for such a life, but he also understood that if the Miyano sisters were discovered by the winery, or if he was involved in the scavenger incident.

The two sisters' fate would not be much better than Anthea's.

No matter how much he wanted it, he couldn't question Akai Shuichi's actions.

Haibara Ai didn't say anything, but just started eating silently again.

Shiina Yuichi rubbed Haibara Ai's head, and this time there was infinite tenderness in his eyes.

Maybe it’s time to say goodbye, Ai-chan.

After dinner, Shiina Yuichi was washing the dishes, while Huibara Ai was holding a cup of milk, staring at him with her lake blue eyes.

Late at night, Shiina Yuichi made the bed for Haibara Ai. She did not leave today but chose to rest here.

In response, Yuichi Shiina did not refuse. He returned to the room and called Akemi Miyano.

"Yuichi, I..."

There was something obviously wrong with Miyano Akemi's voice on the other end of the phone, she was nervous and a little flustered.

"It's okay, Sister Mingmei." Shiina Yuichi said softly, "I know everything."

"I'm sorry, Yuichi."

Miyano Akemi's apology was sincere.

Shiina Yuichi smiled silently, feeling a little bitter and a little relieved.

"He's still here."

He, of course, refers to Akai Shuichi.

"exist."

"I will meet him again tomorrow. I have something to say to him." Shiina Yuichi said with a serious tone.

"I am waiting for you."

The voice of Akai Shuichi on the other end of the phone made Shiina Yuichi's face turn cold.

He hung up the phone without saying a word.

In the quiet room, Shiina Yuichi felt a little empty.

It took him a long time to get into bed.

It's just... returning to my previous life, what's the big deal?

But tonight, someone is destined to suffer from insomnia.

The next afternoon, Yuichi Shiina took the somewhat tired Ai Haibara to Miyano Akemi's place.

When they walked into the living room, Miyano Akemi and Akai Shuichi were already waiting for them.

After the two of them sat down, Shiina Yuu kept looking into Akai Shuichi's eyes.

"I need a guarantee."

ensure?

Akai Shuichi frowned and said nothing.

"Akai Shuichi, you once abandoned Sister Mingmei because your identity was exposed. I find it hard to believe you."

After hearing what Shiina Yuichi said, the expressions of the three people changed.

"What do you want?" asked Shuichi Akai.

"Deal." Shiina Yuichi pointed at Akai Shuichi and himself, "I need an informant who can contact you, and report directly to you."

"Then what price do you need to pay?" Akai Shuichi asked seriously.

"Information about the next Gin event."

Akai Shuichi widened his eyes in disbelief.

Gin's information.

This is an opportunity that you don’t come across often.

Do you want to believe him?

Akai Shuichi said hesitantly, "I can give you the contact information of some agents lurking in Japan."

"It seems that you misunderstood." Shiina Yuichi sneered, "Since it is a transaction, it must be equal. One Gin for one Judy Stelling."

Akai Shuichi's eyes sharpened and he asked, "How do you know this name!"

The name that came out of Yuichi Shiina's mouth carries a lot of information, and Judy is also a person in the witness protection program.

Although Judy has joined the FBI, the details of the plan have not been revealed, so few people know Judy's identity.

But now Yuichi Shiina directly named him.

Does this mean that Yuichi Shiina has a lot of information about the FBI?

Seeing Shuichi Akai's reaction, Yuichi Shiina knew that he had achieved half of his goal, leaving the other party with the feeling that he could actually control the FBI's internal information.

This allows Shuichi Akai to always remain vigilant against people within the FBI.

This was very helpful to the Miyano sisters' subsequent participation in the witness protection program.

"You don't need to know this. If you want me to trust you, you have to show your sincerity."

After hesitating for a while, Akai Shuichi looked at the Miyano sisters and said, "I need some time to think about it."

Shiina Yuu nodded slightly. The fact that Akai Shuichi did not agree to him immediately meant that there was at least a possibility of cooperation.

"Then let's get back to the topic. If you want to take them away, you need to agree to my three conditions." Shiina Yuichi glanced at the Miyano sisters and smiled.

"What conditions?" Shuichi Akai also realized that the previous transaction gave him a preliminary understanding of Shiina Yuichi.

This guy has strong intelligence gathering capabilities.

However, there was a strong sense of purpose revealed in the words.

What follows is probably his purpose.

"First, I don't want them to suffer any form of harm. The various forms of discrimination in your country are well-known around the world." Shiina Yuichi pointed out the characteristics of his country without any hesitation.

"Of course." Akai Hide nodded.

"Secondly, I don't want you to force this kid to conduct any research." Shiina Yuichi touched Haibara Ai's head and said in a deep voice.

"I promise you." Shuichi Akai agreed to this request. Just because of her identity as Miyano Akemi's sister, he would prevent certain FBI people from approaching her.

Miyano Akemi looked at Shiina Yuichi with red eyes and tears in the corners of her eyes.

Haibara Ai lowered her head, her hair covering half of her face, making it impossible to see her expression clearly.

"The last point is, it's more of a request than a condition. If possible, I hope to keep the contact channels with them." Shiina Yuichi changed the subject and said softly.

Hearing this, Akai Shuichi shook his head, looking very businesslike.

"The witness protection program is to prevent them from having too much contact with people in the past and exposing their identities. I will not agree to this."

Hearing Akai Shuichi's righteous words, Shiina Yuichi was not surprised.

Perhaps, what he said is correct.

Without contact, there is no risk of exposure.

"That's fine." Shiina Yuichi sighed and walked up to Miyano Akemi with a big smile on his face, "Hey, Akemi, I'm sorry I left alone yesterday."

"I know you will agree to him, and it's also for my safety."

Tears silently rolled down Miyano Akemi's eyes and she shook her head.

She would not blame Shiina Yuichi, instead she felt guilty towards him.

"Take this." Shiina Yuichi took out a bank card from his pocket. "The password is Shiho's birthday. The money in it is enough for you to live on for the rest of your lives."

"After all, where you are going, you can't go anywhere without money."

"I won't be with you anymore. Although this guy is not very reliable, at least his ability is acceptable."

"When I go to that place, at least I don't have to wear a fake face anymore."

"take care of yourself……"

Shiina Yuichi's words were as long-winded as they were last night, but no one present was impatient.

Even the usually cold Akai Shuichi looked at him silently.

Miyano Akemi's tears flowed all over her cheeks. Shiina Yuichi smiled and wiped her tears away, saying softly, "Thank you, Akemi-sister."

“It’s really great to meet you guys.”

After talking to Miyano Akemi, Shiina Yuichi came to Haibara Ai again. He didn't know what to say to Haibara Ai.

He took off the necklace from his neck and put it in Haibara Ai's hand.

"This is the amulet I have been carrying with me for four years. I am giving it to you today."

"She will protect you."

Haibara Ai has seen this necklace.

Inside was a picture of Anthea.

To Shiina Yuichi, it is something extremely precious.

She, who had remained silent from beginning to end, finally raised her face and cried like a cat just like Miyano Akemi.

Shiina Yuichi reached into his pocket, took out a handkerchief and wiped her.

"I'm a bit of a germaphobe. Let me wipe it for you."

The familiar words reminded her of the warm dinner they had before. That was the first time they took the initiative to get closer to Shiina Yuichi.

But this time it was for farewell.

Suddenly she laughed.

I was very embarrassed at that time.

Although Shiina Yuichi's hands are a little rough, they are really warm.

With him around, I feel safe.

Not long after, Shiina Yuichi left.

Before leaving, he gave his contact information to Shuichi Akai.

Their deal still needs to wait for Shuichi Akai's nod.

Shiina Yuichi took one last look at the Miyano sisters. He had said everything he needed to say, and it was time for him to return to his normal life.

After Shiina Yuichi left, Miyano Akemi burst into tears in the room, and Akai Shuichi gently patted her shoulder.

Miyano Akemi knew that she might never see her brother again.

Sitting opposite was Haibara Ai, stroking the necklace, and suddenly put it around her neck.

"Sister, I don't want to leave."

Haibara Ai's words were soft but powerful.

She didn't sleep well last night, and kept recalling every moment she spent with Shiina Yuichi.

She is very satisfied with her life from the laboratory to now, and sometimes she even thinks that this is good enough.

And she had a feeling in her heart that she couldn't leave, that Shiina Yuichi had already lost Anthea.

How sad would he be when facing separation again?

She reached out and touched the necklace, and the look in her lake blue eyes became more determined.
