Expectation

Chapter 56 The Truth

So-called "feelings" may deceive me, but facts and truth will not.

I spent a day investigating 21 hospitals in the Tokyo area, especially near the area where the incident took place and Mihua where the robbery took place at that time, but I didn’t find such dumb patients with “scars covering most of their faces” at all, nor did I find Suspicious amnesiac.

It's hard to say whether to be more fortunate or more disappointed.I sat on the sofa in the doctor's house, dismissed Xiao Ai, and told Conan that Bourbon had already started to act.

"How do you know? Where did you meet?" he asked nervously.

"In the bank robbery that day, among the hostages, I saw a man who was almost exactly the same as Chi Jing, except that there was a flame burn scar on half of the side of his face."

"That should be Bourbon."

Since it can't be that person, it can only be someone else pretending to be someone who knows Akai and knows the details of that incident.Moreover, the camouflage can be accurate to such a degree, it must not be a mortal - Belmode.However, compared with Akai, Belmode's body and height are still quite different, so it is probably Bourbon who is also a man.And as for the reason... probably because of intelligence.

I thought that if it was me, I might be able to say some stupid words when I suddenly saw the dead person.

Conan thought about it quietly for a while, he didn't question my reasoning, but asked, "Why are you sure that's not Mr. Akai?" He didn't know what he was thinking, and laughed, "Didn't you call Akai to Mr. Subaru before?" .”

"...I've got a fever." I muttered.Those few days must have not slowed down, so my mind was full of random thoughts.

But it's different now, I really don't have illusions anymore.

"After all, I went to the hospitals one by one to check." If he really didn't die, at least there would be a hospital admission record.

He can no longer be my weakness.I also gave up dreaming.In the end, you still have to move forward alone.

I said, "Speaking of which, I think that Okiya Subaru is also very suspicious. The timing is just right. Not long after he appeared, Bourbon appeared... Anyway, suspicious?"

Conan came again: "Hehehe no way, there are no bad people among Sherlock Holmes fans."

I said quietly, "Don't you think that Professor Moriarty is also a fan of Sherlock Holmes?"

"..." Conan laughed dryly, "Anyway, I trust him a lot."

I pouted, "Then your trust is really cheap." I said, "Okay, I don't need to ask the reason, but—"

Before the words fell, the doorbell rang.Just when I opened the door, I wanted to say sorry for your return——

It's Okiya Subaru.

I was a little embarrassed, and I was in a hurry to say bad things about someone and get caught.No, I didn't say anything bad about him!

At least not today.

Okiya Subaru looked at me unexpectedly, and said with a smile, "Oh, it's you again, Ms. Mizuhara."

I opened my eyes and said nonsense: "My water heater is broken."

"Oh...that's really miserable." He squinted his eyes and said gently.

......accurate.I can't explain why I'm just upset with this person. After thinking about it for a long time, I think it may be because I hate squinting my eyes—I can't see his eyes or eyes clearly, so it's hard for me to observe his emotions.This makes me very uneasy.

I was still restless when suddenly a thunderbolt struck down.Conan suddenly said: "Sister Che, why don't you move to brother Xinyi's house?"

???

Why do I live in your house instead of the well-behaved doctor?

...No, I don't have a family myself?

Okiya Subaru looked at Conan and me strangely, and opened his mouth to say something.

"...Wait," I showed an awkward but polite smile, grabbed Conan and asked in a low voice, "Are you sick? Why do you suddenly want me to live in your house?"

Conan opened his half-moon eyes and said, "Aren't you suspicious of Okiya Subaru? Like this, I'll give you another chance to monitor him."

"...In case he is really a member of the organization, you want me to be cannon fodder?"

Conan looked at me sincerely: "I believe in you, I think with your ability to pretend to be stupid, no one will be able to expose you."

......What nonsense!

I glared at him angrily, but having said that, I think it's worth a try.

Turning my head around, I smiled flatteringly: "The neighborhood near my house is being renovated recently, it's too noisy, so today I just asked the doctor if I could borrow it..."

Hey, why did you kick me? Wait, what was my excuse just now?

I quickly added, "Because of the renovation, the water pipe seems to have been accidentally broken, and it hasn't been repaired yet. So the water heater is also broken, ah, it's really miserable."

Conan quickly put on an innocent expression, "We want to play with Sister Che! Anyway, brother Xinyi's house is so big, it's okay to live with another person, right?"

Okiya Subaru rubbed his chin and said, "I'm fine... It's okay to have one more person in such a big house. But don't you need to ask the master Ido Shinichi's opinion?"

Conan had a pure face and said kindly: "It's okay~ Brother Xinyi is kind, he will definitely agree."

The author has something to say: This side is stuck again, and in the end I changed the episode.

ps. Everyone, don’t forget that Dr. 2333’s house is 23333 that was bugged by Subaru

Conan was actually trying to see if Che saw any mistakes, and then he was relieved: Che really believed that Brother Xiu had already received the lunch.

So instead of letting her wander around outside alone, it's better to bring her with her, after all, it can be regarded as combat power.
