Jiang Lai has already walked to the second floor at this moment, and the pace that he deliberately slowed down just now to read forums and comics has returned to normal speed.

He was just about to put away his phone, but the last message he caught sight of out of the corner of his eye made him stand still in place!

[Cough, friends... Is it only me who discovered this detail? (Comic screenshot enlarged.jpg)]

This picture is the scene after Kurosawa Showa and Natsume came back from skiing outside, and the two children leaned close to Jiang Lai.

This itself is a scene painted in the distance of Zhufu Gaoming.The picture engraved on the side, at that time, Jiang Lai took it as the usual scene in the comics, and passed it by in a flash.

However, in this specially enlarged screenshot, it can be seen that there is a fuzzy figure of a long-haired man in a knitted hat standing at the foot of the stairs farther away.

——It’s Shuichi Akai!

Jiang Lai: "!"

Did Akai actually go downstairs during this time? !But they obviously didn't see him at all on the first floor!

In other words... the other party went downstairs, but didn't come out from the stairs, and turned back quickly.

Since the other party was standing on the outside of the stairs, then...Jiang Lai's heart skipped a beat.Did the other party see Akira Kurosawa?

I believe that the other party will definitely think of Qin Bar.

"..." I really didn't expect it. I originally thought that if Kurosawa and Natsume stayed in the room and met at different times, everything would be fine.

Jiang Lai narrowed his eyes and put the phone back in his pocket.

It seems that the next period of time to be vigilant.

However, if it is Shuichi Akai, no matter whether his state is red or black at the moment, he should not report it immediately, but observe and contact silently.

During this period of time, I can also apply it in reverse, to test whether Akai Shuichi is the FBI or Mashu Rai.

Jiang Lai passed by the door of Akai Shuichi's room, and deliberately listened with light steps. It was quiet inside, as quiet as if no one lived there.

He kept walking in silence, returned to the door of his room, and knocked on the door in his usual tone: "I'm back~"

Before leaving, Jiang Lai told them to lock the door, so now he needs them to open the locked door when he comes back.After the click sounded, a silver-haired boy appeared behind the door: "Welcome back. What happened?"

"Hmm..." Jiang Lai entered the room and closed the door, "There is another murder case. But don't worry, I believe the police and detectives will find the murderer soon."

Jiang Lai smiled to comfort the children, glanced casually across the room, and found that the bedside table was empty, subconsciously asked: "Hey? Have you put away the flashlight I left?"

"No, I lent it to someone else." Little Natsume shook her head lightly.

"After you left just now, the long-haired brother next door knocked on the door and asked if we had any lighting equipment, so we lent him the flashlight." Kurosawa Akira tilted his head and said.

"!?" Akai Shuichi actually came!

Jiang Lai believed that his expression at this moment must be very exciting.

Good guy, I never expected Akai to move so fast!

Of course, he didn't think that Akai Shuichi was here purely to borrow a flashlight. After all, every house has such necessary supplies, and Akai also has a mobile phone for lighting, and the other party, no matter whether he is a fake black or a real black, will not casually talk to him. contact with others.

"...Children, it's very dangerous to open the door to strangers in such a power outage and chaotic situation." Jiang Lai couldn't say anything more, he could only say in a complicated tone, "...Who opened the door?"

Considering that Shuichi Akai may have placed a bug, Jiang Lai controlled his tone better.It's like ordinary parents who know the fear and worry of strangers coming to find their children at such a dangerous moment of homicides and power outages.

It's normal to ask more.

"I went." Akira Kurosawa blinked slightly, "Actually, I thought it was you who came back."

"..." Jiang Lai raised his hand and rubbed the other party's hair, "Let's make a secret next time, otherwise the little rabbit will be obedient and won't open anyone."

After confirming the content of the code is safe, we will talk about it in detail.Jiang Lai thought.

After a pause for a second, Jiang Lai asked again: "Then besides borrowing the flashlight, did he say or do anything else?"

"No more." Akira Kurosawa shook his head. "After opening the door, I was a little surprised to see it was a stranger, and then he said it was a resident in the room next to ours, and asked me if I had any extra lighting equipment. He was in a hurry. I just said oh With a cry, hand him the flashlight you put on the table."

"Hey...?" Little Natsume blinked lightly, hesitantly said, "I remember you chatted at the door for a while, but I couldn't hear you clearly in the room."

"Huh? Is there?" Akira Kurosawa tilted his head, a little confused, "I only answered oh, and didn't say anything else."

"...That may be because I heard it wrong." Little Natsume also showed a little bit of confusion, and then turned into a gentle smile, "It's probably the movement downstairs."

Jiang Lai was silent for a while, he glanced at Kurosawa Zhao's sincere expression, and kept this somewhat contradictory matter in his heart, and didn't say anything more at this moment.

"Hmm..." Jiang Lai frowned, then asked in a low voice, "Is there anything special about that?"

"Hey?"

"Well, big brother is still wearing white gloves." Little Natsume added softly beside him.

"...?!" Jiang Lai squinted his eyes, and a guess jumped in his heart like lightning and flint!

It stands to reason that the hotel's own equipment like a flashlight should have a lot of fingerprints on it.But this hotel has always been known for its cleanliness and high-quality service. It is said that all the supplies inside will be wiped down before a new guest comes in.

If the hotel staff had diligently worn work gloves and wiped the flashlight clean before they came, then the only fingerprints left on it now are those who took it out, and those who held it and handed it to Akai Shuichi Akira Kurosawa's fingerprints of the two.

"..."

But my fingerprints should be useless, since I didn't have any record of fingerprinting in Japan.Jiang Lai thought silently.What Hideichi Akai wanted might be Akira Kurosawa's fingerprints?Used for some kind of comparison, or result exploration.

It's hard to describe Jiang Lai's mood now, but thinking about it, it doesn't seem so bad.

Akai Shuichi's character, no matter red or black, is definitely planning to go it alone as always, so taking advantage of his current status, maybe he can really find out Kurosawa Akira's life experience through small fingerprints.

After all, if it is really an organizational experiment, there should be a record - if it has not been destroyed.

Although Shuichi Akai and himself are Schrödinger's enemies in this situation, they will definitely not sit down and chat about these things.but……

There are also comics and three forums.Jiang Lai raised the corners of his mouth slightly in his heart, with anticipation.Maybe it will be painted inside.

And Matsuda... If possible, I still need to contact him, and carefully pay attention to some of the previous experiments organized by the organization, maybe I can get some information from him.

He might know some information about that mysterious and dangerous second personality.

Jiang Lai was thinking in his mind, staring at the front in a daze, Kurosawa stretched out his hand and shook in front of his eyes: "...what's wrong?"

"Ah, it's okay." Jiang Lai came back to his senses, and said casually, "I'll treat you to a cup of Lao Baigan some other day."

The possibility of having a cup of medicine A is the temporary antidote Laobaigan, and see if Akira Kurosawa is a real kid or a fake kid of Conan's style!Jiang Lai was thinking wildly in his heart.

Akira Kurosawa: "?? I'm underage, so I can't drink, Brother Jiang Lai."

"Just kidding~" Jiang Lai laughed and waved his hands.

His eyes fell on Kurosawa Akira again, and the silver-haired and green-eyed figure was reflected in his eyes. He could vaguely describe the killer's appearance, but there were differences.

There was a bit of natural coldness and indifference in the other party's eyebrows, but it quickly melted into the smiling face of the young boy, and the sharp blade was gathered in the gentle scabbard.Akira Kurosawa blinked his bright eyes, looked at Jiang Lai and said, "If the weather improves tomorrow, let's go skiing together brother Jiang Lai! Natsume and I had a great time today."

"Well, I have also learned how to ski." The chestnut-haired boy smiled softly, with the innocence and excitement of a child.

The topic returned to daily life, and the children who knew nothing obviously did not have so much burden. They looked at Jiang Lai with expectant eyes.

"The blizzard won't be able to stop for a while, and there may be future troubles." Jiang Lai looked at the lowered expressions of the two little cats, paused slightly, and added, "But since it's a holiday, we can Stay here for a few more days for the room fee, and I will accompany you to go skiing when the weather improves."

"Great!"

In addition to the childish cheers, a knock on the door could suddenly be heard, which seemed like nothing.

someone is coming.

Jiang Lai turned his head, he got up and walked to the door holding the flashlight, but he didn't open the door immediately.

"..." Even though there was a layer of door panels, Jiang Lai could vaguely guess who was standing outside.

Akai Shuichi.

In fact, the possibility of the other party doing something is very low. After all, the police are still downstairs and there is a snowstorm outside.It was difficult for him to deal with an adult and two children without making any noise.

But Jiang Lai still hangs his heart high.

A few breaths seemed as long as a century, Jiang Lai adjusted his facial expression, put one hand on the doorknob, the other hand held the flashlight, and pulled the door back——

The sudden flash of light behind the door caused Akai Hideo in the darkness to squint his eyes subconsciously, and quickly took a step back to avoid the direct light before looking at the person in front of him.

The black-haired young man looked surprised and sorry, and pressed down the upturned flashlight: "Ah, sorry, I didn't expect to shine directly into your eyes. Are you okay?"

——Actually, it was intentional, of course. Jiang Lai calculated the approximate height and position, and turned on the flashlight to the maximum setting to take a picture.

Anyone looking directly at the strong light in a dark environment will be in a trance for a moment. If the other party intends to do something, this short moment is extremely precious to Jiang Lai.

Fortunately, the other party didn't seem to make any moves.Jiang Lai's gaze quickly swept across Akai Shuichi.The other party only held a flashlight in an off state in his hand, and there were no other threatening items.

"I'm sorry, I'm really sorry." Jiang Lai still maintained a sincere look on his face, but he didn't take a step forward at all, "Excuse me, are you here...?"

"Come and return the items." Akai Hideichi said, and held out the flashlight he was holding, "Thank you." His voice was low, like the melodious sound of a cello.

In this step of approaching, Akai Shuichi's green eyes locked tightly on the person in front of him, and his body leaned forward, showing a faint sense of oppression.

But Jiang Lai still took it with a natural expression: "Oh, good sir, you're welcome."

——The other party returned the flashlight, did the fingerprint collection go so smoothly?Or is it that the one that came back is actually the one in Akai's room.

Thoughts were rolling in his mind, but Jiang Lai remained calm on the outside, because this kind of attitude of not being afraid or showing off was the safest state to face these people.

"..."

Akira Kurosawa and Natsume Natsume who were in the room also came to the door. They looked out behind Jiang Lai with the innocence, curiosity and shyness of a child.

Akai Shuichi lowered his eyes, and the dark wind in the corridor floated his long hair.

"...Is there anything else?" Jiang Lai asked with his head tilted.
