Conan: I am really a good person

Chapter 268 [Future]

Akai Shuichi looked into those red eyes.

This police academy student is very mysterious. Even the only time he appeared, he was wearing a black inverted V mask, helmet and goggles.

The black mask protected the bridge of his nose and spread from the sides of his cheeks to his ears. The helmet covered most of his hair, with only a few pieces of black hair exposed from his forehead, which were gently swaying with his movements. , the goggles are transparent and just press the edge of the mask, giving it a certain sense of presence.

But when he saw those red eyes clearly, the presence of the goggles suddenly dropped to a minimum.

They are a pair of red eyes that look like blood. The pupils are deeper and round, but also somewhat oval. At first glance, some people may think, "The pupils of this police academy student are being transformed by human beings." The illusion that the round pupils turn into the vertical pupils of a beast.

It was obvious that the owner of the eyes was smiling, and the color of the blood was brighter, but neither the smile nor the brightness alleviated the aggression in those eyes at all.

The main function of the mask and helmet is to block the appearance, but it also has a side effect, that is, it surrounds the eyes, making the eyes more visible and making the owner of the eyes more present, almost like a close-up in a movie shot Like, taking away all the attention, everyone can only see him.

Although he is clearly separated from the screen, he is extremely vivid, as if the next moment he will pass through the mobile phone screen, raise a gun, or show sharp fangs, and simply engage in a life and death fight with the viewer.

The moment they looked at each other, Akai Shuichi was extremely sure: these are the eyes.

Even if the guy in the video has black hair.

The police academy student the MI6 agent was talking about is the recently famous 'Messiah' in New York.

only……

From the neon police academy students to the unruly criminals, from the dead to the living, the difference is too big, right?

why?

Shuichi Akai realized something: perhaps what was missing from his speculative puzzle was not just some corners, but something close to the core.

The matter was more complicated than he imagined. If the Tokyo police were involved, Neon's attitude must be taken into consideration. Regardless of whether Neon knew that this savior classmate had faked his death and was now in Tokyo.

As for why it is 'Messiah's classmate fakes his death in public view' rather than 'Messiah dies, Satan disguises himself as Messiah'...

The difference between these two people is too big. The person Shuichi Akai met did not have the anti-human temperament that 'Satan' should have.

Moreover, the person he saw matched the temperament of the guy in the video. The 'Messiah' at the bank and the 'Messiah' at the car accident scene were almost identical. It was like the same person appeared in two places on the same day.

Months of suspended animation and a life as a criminal have not brought any change to this savior classmate.

While thinking, Akai Shuichi replied: [It's him. 】

[Is there any information related to his relatives in the information you investigated? 】

MI6 agent: [Relatives? 】

Seeing this message, 'The Messiah police academy student in Tokyo and the Messiah criminal in New York are actually the same person? ! ' In surprise, he suddenly realized something and immediately replied:

[This 'Messiah' is very mysterious. I have not found his last name, nor any information about his family. All his personal information has been deliberately concealed, and the people have no knowledge at all. 】

This is strange.

How could someone be both [extremely well-known] and [unknown] at the same time?

If so, someone must have done it deliberately.

Akai Shuichi understood this truth. When the MI6 agent responded, he was still watching the video, which was less than ten seconds long, and listened to Mirai Ichijo talking to his classmates through the headset in a relaxed and cheerful manner.

He heard a sentence that was so casual that it sounded like a joke, capturing the key word: 'a friend with different ideas'. Disagreement in ideas, friends?

He heard another comment from the future that was more like a joke, 'Ah, maybe it's because he is too kind and doesn't agree with my philosophy.'

With the addition of 'disgusting', it is obvious that this joke was a casual joke on what he just said, 'It is my duty to protect the people'.

Even if he only watched this short clip, Akai Shuichi could deduce the fact: There was a person who did not share the same ideals with Ichijo Mirai but was very close to him. After Ichijo Mirai said these words, he sent something like, 'You disgust me. ' or something like that.

The relationship must be very close and intimate, and they must know each other very well, so the moment he saw it, Mirai Ichijo laughed.

Moreover, Ichijo's future police companions did not know the existence of this person, so when the police asked, he casually responded with a joking tone.

So here comes the question: Who is this friend who does not agree with the philosophy of the 'Messiah', but has a close relationship and knows each other very well. He will feel sick when he hears the statement 'It is the duty of the police to protect the people'. Who is this friend who is not known to the police? ?

Without thinking, a figure with a sharp horn and a devil's tail appeared in Akai Shuichi's mind: 'Satan'.

He raised his finger, pressed the headset deeper, and tapped the button twice with his thumb. Without hesitation, he quickly edited a message: [Please focus on investigating relatives who are the same age as him. 】

[His elder brother or younger brother. 】

Shuichi Akai has no evidence.

The moment he saw the video, he recalled that when Ichigo was casually dragged into the car by him, his red eyes only narrowed for a moment and then returned to normal, looking unsurprised.

Perhaps it’s because the eyes are the windows to the soul. Paying attention to your eyes when talking can often yield unexpected information.

Or maybe intuition can catch flaws that the brain is unaware of.

All in all, when recalling the pair of red eyes in the car, Akai Shuichi's intuition rang out: 'Messiah' and 'Satan' have a close relationship. They are the closest existences to each other in the world, and they are also the most hostile to each other in the world. exist.

Yes……

Blood relatives.

This is a kind of thing that cannot be traced. It has been deeply rooted in Akai Shuichi's thoughts since the car accident. It has taken root in every night when he thinks about the 'Messiah' and in every thrilling dream. It is so rich that it cannot be found in Ignore, like the intuitive ringing of church bells.

The phone vibrated, as if it coincided with the vibration frequency of an unknown intuition. Shuichi Akai looked at the screen and saw the reply from the MI6 agent: [Do you think he is not an only child, but has a brother born from a compatriot? 】

[OK, I will try my best to investigate. 】

[There should be some information about him here in the cemetery. I will try to find out his home address. 】

A family with one child and a family with two children have somewhat different traces in the home.

As long as he finds a home where he will grow up in the future, even if he intentionally changes some traces of the home, there are still likely to be clues left behind.

Akai Shuichi replied: [Thank you. 】

After a pause, he asked again: [Isn't his name on the tombstone? 】

[No,] MI6 agents took a photo, [there is only one line of words on the tombstone. 】

The photo was sent successfully. Shuichi Akai saw the vibrant green in front of the tombstone, and saw that the line of inscriptions on the tombstone was not horizontal and vertical like other tombstones, but rather looked like artistic writing:

【future】.

　Tombstone of a great police officer x

　　Tokyo’s new must-see tourist attractions

　　The great savior, even though he died, was still making contributions to Tokyo. He really made me cry to death.
