Conan: I am really a good person

Chapter 199 Twins

Since the establishment of the school, the files of all police academy students have been kept. This is a huge project.

There are not so many free spaces in the police academy, and the archives are full. Therefore, Zhu Fu Jingguang and the others only have basic personal information in their archives. He can also deduce that only if there is a major change, such as being promoted to a high position. And so on, the student files saved in the school will add something about the student after graduation.

But the files from more than [-] years ago were different. They recorded in great detail the results of every major and minor test of the police academy students involved. Instead, the personal information was very vague.

Zhu Fu Jingguang opened the [one] file, and the first thing that caught his eye was a gray and worn-out photo. It was a headshot of a young woman. She pursed her lips tightly against the photo, as if she was He was about to smile, but very stiffly, like a beast that moved at night, with a sharp light shining in his black pupils.

Even though the photo is shabby, it can be seen that she has beautiful eyebrows and good looks. Perhaps because of her tight face, she is more of a cold beauty overall, but mostly cold.

"... Found it," Zhu Fu Jingguang fixed his gaze on the photo and whispered to himself, "The eyebrows are very similar."

The woman in this photo is very similar to Ichiyo Mirai's eyebrows. If he doesn't show an unbridled sunny smile, or doesn't show a funny and evil smile, but instead has a cold face, the similarity can be as high as [-]%. Ten, almost carved from the same mold.

Anyone who saw the two of them would automatically assume that they must be related.

The coldest expression in Yiyi Mirai's usual expression is the expressionless face that turns a blind eye to everyone after training, but that expressionless face is a state of natural relaxation of facial muscles. Zhu Fu Jingguang has not thought about what if one day What would it look like if he showed a cold expression, so he looked at the photo a few more times before lowering his gaze.

He saw a vague and brief personal information, with almost only a few hasty notes indicating that this 'police officer' was not a native of Tokyo, but came to Tokyo for the police academy.

Further down, there is detailed test information. There are many courses in the police academy, some rely purely on physical strength, some purely rely on brains, and some rely on force. There are many kinds. Many students are not good at some subjects. Test information The results of the data owner are specially marked with different colors.

So at a glance, Zhu Fu Jingguang found that the test information on the first few pages had almost all the strange colors in the middle.

In the beginning, no matter what class she was in, 'Police Officer Ichijo' was pretty good. There were thirty people in a class, and her grades were all around fifteen. It was best not to be in the top twelve, and at worst she was not in the top twelve. Won’t make it to the bottom twelve.

One door is like this, every door is like this. It happens once, and it happens again and again.

While listening to the instructor's conversation, the vague doubts fermented in Zhu Fu Jingguang's thoughts: Is this 'Police Officer Ichijo'... deliberately hiding his clumsiness?
  Why?

He scrolled down further and found that the report card at the back had undergone a completely different change. 'Police Officer Ichijo' had been in the top ten once, and immediately occupied the top spot like stepping on the stairs when going upstairs. Top of the list.

The difference between before and after was so big that of course the instructors at the police academy were puzzled. There was an investigative information included in the file.

After more than twenty years, the instructors and Zhu Fu Jingguang had the same question: If it was Zangzhuo, why?
  You've all been admitted to the police academy, what are you hiding? There are many outstanding classmates, including those from good family backgrounds and those from poor family backgrounds, some male and female, some from Tokyo and some from non-Tokyo, some with both parents, and some without any relatives.

The police academy is a place to train police officers, not a workplace where you need to keep your tail between your legs. Even police academy students who come from poor families and have no parents or relatives alive but who have excellent academic performance can in some ways find it easier to rely on them.

By marrying a daughter of a high-ranking person who appreciates you or a son of a high-ranking person who appreciates you, and tying yourself to a patron through marriage, or simply selling your youth directly to those patrons as underground lovers, you can transform yourself into a superior person.

And it was hidden and exposed again, why?
  After careful investigation and several interviews, the instructors came to the conclusion: 'Police Officer Ichijo' lacked a sense of security because both of his parents were dead and he had no familiar relatives. However, because he got to know his lover, he felt a lot more secure. It glowed with incredible power.

The evidence is: She prefers to be called 'Ms. Ichijo' and 'Police Officer Ichijo' rather than being called by her real name.

Of course, she didn't express it directly, but she always showed shyness, embarrassment and meek acquiescence when being teased by her classmates.

Zhu Fu Jingguang: "..."

He glanced at the photo of the 'Police Officer Ichijo' a few more times and repeated the words in the investigation material, "Meek and shy acquiescence, typical Yamato Nadeshiko?"

Totally unimaginable.

It is possible to imagine the gentle smile of this 'police officer' because of Ichijo Mirai, but 'docile bowed head' and 'Yamato Nadeshiko'...

This investigation report could not convince Zhu Fu Jingguang. Instead, it made the doubts exude a mellow aroma like wine, making it more obvious. However, it obviously convinced the instructors at the time, so that was the end of it.

"My grades are average. I seem to be hiding my clumsiness. I prefer to be called my husband's surname than my real name." He frowned and slowly stroked his eyebrows. "My parents are dead, I have no close relatives, I am alone, and I am not from Tokyo. The information is brief and vague."

After stroking it for a while, he paused again and looked at the first few training materials again. "The results are quite satisfactory, and I don't stand out."

An incredible but natural thought emerged in Zhu Fu Jingguang's mind, "Who is she hiding from?"

"...The identity may be fake?"

So before you fell in love, you didn't dare to show off. After you fell in love, you had someone who could justifiably change your name and gained an impeccable official identity, and then you turned the offensive and showed your true strength?

Zhu Fu Jingguang frowned again, "But, 'Police Officer Ichijo' is so famous. If she wants to hide from someone, isn't she afraid of being discovered?"

Could it be that the person she was hiding from didn't even know what she looked like?
  Or maybe the person she wants to avoid doesn't pay attention to the news or famous police officers at all?
  Or maybe it's not a Tokyo force?
  With all kinds of thoughts swirling in his mind, Zhu Fu Jingguang continued to watch.

After graduating from the police academy, 'Officer Ichijo' got married. A photo of the wedding was appended to the file. It was a photocopy. At first glance, it looked very different from the text.

In the photocopy, two young people were in a typical neon wedding, dressed in white and black. They were standing at the car door, holding hands and looking at each other, with a faint smile on their lips, and they seemed very happy.

This is just the first photo. As an appendix, the photos copied on the paper are all stacked together. Some copies only have the front side of the photo, and some copies have smaller photos with both sides. It looks like What words are written on the reverse side.

Zhu Fu Jingguang scrolled down casually, and soon found a photo with a sense of future existence, so he paused.

It was a photo of Police Officer Ichijo who was pregnant. Her belly was so big that she needed to support her lower back with her hands. It looked like she was about to give birth.

‘This is a photo taken about half a month before my future classmate was born’.

Zhu Fu Jingguang thought so and took another look at it. Just as he was about to turn it over, the smile on his face stopped when he scanned the back of the photo.

He slowly read the words on the opposite side, "Six months?"

Behind this photo where even a young man can tell at a glance that 'Officer Ichijo' is about to give birth, the words written on the back are actually: [love] and [six months].

……

Zhu Fu Jingguang still had the basic ability to distinguish. He looked at it steadily for more than ten seconds, but still couldn't convince himself that 'Police Officer Ichijo' was currently in the state of a mother who had given birth to a child for six months. This was clearly... It's almost time to give birth.

But the person who left the writing on the back of the photo was either a 'police officer' or Ichijo's future father. There was no need to deceive others about such a thing.

'Officer Ichijo' only needed to go to the hospital for a check-up to determine how many months she was pregnant, and there was no way to hide it. If it was deception, then it must have been people like Zhu Fu Jingguang who could not verify many things many years later.

But it’s not necessary, right?
  The couple most likely didn't know about Zhu Fu Jingguang's existence, so why did they cheat?

Since it is not deception, then this 'six months' is probably...

"twin?"

Zhu Fu Jingguang was a little stunned.

Twins can explain why six months is like giving birth soon, but why does neither the instructor nor Mirai Ichijo mention that he has a brother or sister?

His eyes paused on the smiling face of 'Officer Ichijo' in the photo and quickly scrolled down.

There are very few photos below, only two or three, and they are all what Zhu Fu Jingguang wants to see: a photo of 'Police Officer Ichijo' just one month after giving birth. She was sitting on a hospital bed, holding a child. , there was no smile on his face, but he stared at his child as if he was stunned and lost.

Zhu Fu Jingguang's brows wrinkled again, "...a child?"

And he is not happy, but has a depressed and melancholy expression?

Did another child die? This could explain why no one else said that Ichijou would have biological brothers or sisters in the future.

He looked through the last few photos.

The last few photos are basically photos of Yi Yi when he was about two or three years old in the future. Although he was still young and the photos were black and white, Zhu Fu Jingguang could still see in the child's immature eyebrows how he would grow up in the future.

Every time there is a photo of Mirai Ichiro's childhood, 'Police Officer Ichijo' is on one side. They look similar. They are mother and son at first glance. What's even more similar is their expressions.

As a child, Ichijo Miku seemed to really not want to face the camera, so in most of the photos, he turned his back to the camera or turned his face away as much as possible to prevent the camera from capturing him as little as possible.

He probably really doesn't like taking pictures, so his expressions are all bland, almost exactly the same as when he is ignoring everyone in his non-training state. He doesn't have the silly laughter unique to children or the crying that makes adults collapse, and his body is clean. , there is no trace of playing around.

And ‘Police Officer Ichijo’…

Her expression couldn't even be called indifferent, it was a frown under her thin eyebrows, a bit unhappy and depressed, as if there was something lingering in her heart and brows, which prevented her from being happy even when looking at her lovely child.

Zhu Fu Jingguang whispered: "Is it because you lost a child?"

Because you lost a child, when you look at your surviving child, you often think of the child you lost, so you can't hide your depression?
  Even among brothers who are not the same child but have an age difference, if one of them dies, the parents will more or less think of their dead child because of the living child, and twins are even more inevitable.

This is human nature.

It's just that children are always particularly keen. From time to time, their mother will feel depressed and unhappy when she sees him, and will...

Is this part of the reason why I'm not good at interpersonal communication in the future and I'm not sure about boundaries?

Zhu Fu Jingguang took a few more glances at the young Ichimi Mirai with a faint expression on the photo, and then turned the page backwards.

I have already read through the photos in the appendix, and then there is a large block of text, and an investigation report in the appendix, about a future investigation report on the death of a parent.

However, it is an indirect investigation report.

The report contains no information about the time of the crime, the location of the crime, the traces left by the murderer at the scene, or the suspects that the police should investigate. There is only speculation.

The article is full of speculation that the murderer of the two police officers must be a black figure they provoked themselves.

The police speculated that the reason why the home invasion and murder occurred was that the two police officers offended someone during the investigation of the case and were retaliated against. Not only did they both die, but even the child disappeared without a trace. It is not known whether the murderer took away the child or was taken away by the murderer. Dumped by the murderer.

…‘Even the children are gone’?
  After the death of his parents, Ichijo Miku disappeared?

Has he been missing for a while, or has he been missing forever?
  If it's the latter, then no wonder the police academy's reaction seemed to be a hasty rejection in an emergency, rather than being prepared in advance.

Zhu Fu Jingguang restrained his active and scattered thoughts, lowered his brows, and continued to look down.

Although the indirect investigation report is full of nonsense, some of it looks decent and seems to be quite reasonable. For example, it lists how many cases "Police Officer Ichijo" has solved, how famous he is, and which of the cases involve black people and may be punished. Hold a grudge.

For example, various information such as 'Police Officer Ichijo''s household registration, files, and physical examination reports have been obtained. It seems that someone is secretly investigating their family.

For example, it seems that someone has been stationed there for a long time. A family near Ichijo's house once called the police, saying that they often saw unscrupulous people dressed in dark clothes near their home. They were usually in black vehicles with privacy films, like ghosts. Just as cautiously peeking at something.

For another example, a teacher from Mirai Ichijo Kindergarten once confessed something when the police visited him for questioning: An adult once tried to abduct a child in the kindergarten. That child was Mirai Ichijo. He was quite smart and did not follow him at all. His identity is unknown. The kidnapper was afraid that the incident would be exposed and caught, so he fled.

Among the abduction methods are:

1. Simply give candy and fruit, trying to coax a future to follow you.

2. Telling something that seems to be true or false, that I am involved in a case, and the police are trying to find a scapegoat. I don’t want to be forced to confess, and I hope that someone with justice can discern the truth and clarify it for me.

3. Combined with the first point, use some words, such as 'You are such a smart child, you must be lonely, right? Why don't you go with your uncle? He can take you to find your like-minded relatives, who can be said to be true blood relatives with you? ’ something like that.

Obviously, this is specifically aimed at a future.

But, ‘a relative with whom you have true blood ties’?
  This sentence is a bit difficult to understand, and even the police are a little confused about this sentence in the whole nonsense, thinking that the teacher may have said it wrong.

Zhu Fu Jingguang stared at the few lines of text intently. After a while, he repeated the key words in a low voice: "Six months, a child, the hospital information was transferred, someone was squatting near his home, and the target was pointed at a precise line. The future is missing..."

These keywords can brew up and interweave a direction of "the murderer had a premeditated plan", making the police's shirk of responsibility seem less outrageous.

Or maybe a small direction can be hatched: "That child didn't die?"

Zhu Fu Jingguang whispered his thoughts in shock, "Just after he was born, he was taken away by an unknown person?"
