Chapter 7 7. The only relative

Rina Yonoki got up early and went out before dawn because she had a new business these days.

The father of Hirota Masami's classmate from Yamagata Prefecture, her only relative, left home about a month ago and came to Tokyo to work, but recently he has lost contact with his family and quit his job at the taxi company. The police were called but there was no news of him, so the helpless girl turned to the detective for help.

Recently, after cooking, Yonoju Rina either goes out to inquire or waits for her elder brother near the park. The vengeful crows can even make the entire tribe remember clearly who has offended them. The elder brother who can usually find pets should be able to help her find this missing man.

Yesterday, because she was worried about Xiaolan, she and Nogi Rina stayed at home in the afternoon. Today, she went out early and worked hard for the first time in a long time. After all, she was really lazy. An anxious client called her at least three times a day to urge her.

If the police can't find someone, can you find him by making a bunch of calls to the detective every day?

Although the police in detective stories are usually bad, the detectives may be even worse...

But the eldest brother is the eldest brother, not a policeman or a detective. When he saw Rina Yono coming to find her, he greeted her and motioned for her to follow.

Rina Nogi was delighted. It seemed that they had found it. The eldest brother was as reliable as ever.

After confirming Kenzo Hirota's address, Rina Yonogi called her daughter to inform her.

Not long after, Hirota Masami hurried over, her two braids were a little messy. Seeing that Yonoki Rina hadn't completely recovered her breath, she bowed to her and thanked her, "Thank you for helping me find my father, thank you so much!"

Turning around and walking towards the house, she ran into Kenzo Hirota who was throwing out the trash. He seemed surprised to see his daughter here, and the trash in his hands fell to the ground. Along with the sound of the trash suddenly falling to the ground, Hirota Masami's excited voice came as she threw herself on her father, "Dad, I've been looking for you so hard!"

Compared to Hirota Masami's excitement, Hirota Kenzo looked too indifferent, as if he was not looking forward to such a reunion at all.

Such an adult doesn't look like he is so poor that he can't survive. He abandoned his only relative who is still in school for unknown reasons. He must be a scum no matter how you look at it.

If I encountered the same thing as Nogi Rina, I would definitely not look for him. Unnecessary and painful feelings are nothing but bondage.

However, she is still a child and may not be old enough to know how to survive on her own.

Thinking about it this way, that despicable man is even more hateful.

Look at that man's face. There is no happiness at all. His distorted look shows that he is probably planning how to get rid of the girl again.

The more Yonogi Rina thought about it, the angrier she became, so she simply turned around and left without looking at it. After all, her commission had been completed, and the things here had nothing to do with her anymore.

He turned his head and glanced at the crow on his shoulder, "Brother, you are also a fool. I just put you back into the nest, but you act like you want to help me for the rest of my life."

The eldest brother flew around Rina Yonoju, shouting "Wow-wow", as if he was calling Rina Yonoju a fool.

Seeing her brother's energetic appearance, Yonoki Rina's mood improved again, "Brother, you have worked hard today, can you come home with me tonight? You haven't come to play at home for a long time."

When she was a child, she often came to knock on the window to offer treasures. After she had a partner, children, and a group of younger brothers, her brother had too many responsibilities and rarely went to visit Rina Yono at her house.

When Yonogi Rina came out of the supermarket, her brother was no longer outside. She thought that he probably went home by himself.

Unexpectedly, when she reached the door of her house, her eldest brother suddenly flew towards her holding a pair of sunglasses.

Although crows are black, they are generally not interested in black things. If they want to grab something, they will grab something shiny. When my eldest brother was a child, he grabbed a pair of sunglasses with a mirror film because the reflection of these sunglasses had a glare that she could not resist.

But after she had seen a lot and had bought and changed many collections, she was no longer interested in this thing.

Moreover, after being taught a lesson by Rina Yonoki for presenting these treasures that were obviously owned by someone else, she was never caught stealing things by Rina Yonoki again.

Of course, revenge on the enemy is an exception, which is justice.

We can't expect a crow that has used half of its intelligent brain to bear grudges to give up this mission that was born with it...

Thinking of this, Yonoki Rina looked at the crow running behind her with a fierce look, obviously chasing the man in sunglasses. He must have just provoked Big Brother! Watch me uphold justice for Big Brother!

However, when she saw the face of the person who came, Rina Nogi's preparation was temporarily ruined. This man who was dressed in tough clothes with a very Showa style actually had a pair of big round eyes that were as lively and funny as water.

The face looks like it came from a comedy comic, making the whole world's style seem a little off!

Yonogi Rina subconsciously turned her head to glance at her elder brother who held his head high and chest puffed out. No matter how you looked at him, he seemed to have a clear conscience. This... really wasn't the elder brother bullying the weak...

After all... bro, her moral code may not be that close to human...

"Can you ask your crow to return my glasses to me?"

"She is not the crow I raised. Never mind. If you want your glasses back, you have to explain what you did first. She is not the kind of person who would just take other people's things." Not knowing the truth, Rina Yoshinoki chose to stand on the side of her eldest brother at the first moment. After all, there are relatives and strangers.

"Well... maybe, maybe it's because I followed you all the way? I didn't do anything else."

"You followed me all the way and you have the nerve to say you didn't do anything! You just haven't had time to do anything yet!" Yonoki Rina thought, as expected, she believed that her elder brother was right, her elder brother was mighty, and her elder brother was always right. Her elder brother could actually find the stalker, which really gave her a sense of security. If it wasn't inappropriate, Yonoki Rina would definitely kiss her elder brother, hug him, and lift him up high. If she didn't kiss him, she simply couldn't repay her elder brother's kindness.

"Listen to my explanation. I really didn't do anything, and I'm not planning to do anything. I'm actually a detective."

"So you're planning to get information about your competitors' business?"

"So you are indeed a detective? That's really weird..."

"Tell me what's strange about it. Let me see what excuse you can come up with." Yonokurina hugged her elder brother and waited for the man to explain clearly.

"Did you receive a commission to find Kenzo Hirota? I also received a commission, and I found his residence nearby, but the client told me not to look for him anymore. Then I saw you and Kenzo Hirota, and what surprised me was that I heard the girl calling him dad. Because my client asked me to help find his brother who came to Tokyo from Kyushu to work, because he is his only relative!"

Jiuzhou? Brother? Only relative?

"That's a bit strange indeed. Miss Yami said she came from Yamagata Prefecture and her father is her only relative."

It is impossible for someone to have two "only relatives" who come from completely different places!

Unless, the man really had to hide because of some things, and someone asked a detective to help find him under the pretext of looking for relatives.

Who is his only relative?

Or maybe, this only relative does not exist at all!

Big brother is awesome!
