Conan: I am really a good person

Chapter 323 Why

Suzuki Sonoko is hiding under the table.

She wrapped one hand around her knees and pressed her chest with the other. Her heart beat lightly and heavily under her palms, creating a sense of disorderly panic.

But not because of the robbers.

It's because... She was obviously in a critical moment, and she was naturally wary, but when she stayed in the shadow under the table, she felt a subtle sense of relief, and her heartbeat became faster and faster, so much that it echoed in her ears, as if there was something. Panic that something out of control is happening.

It was as if her instinct had already sensed the arrival of a glimmer of hope before she herself understood it.

It's a very strange feeling.

Suzuki Sonoko couldn't help but blinked. The green eyes of her eyes were moistened with moisture. The dry eyelashes briefly intertwined in the blink of an eye, and then separated neatly.

Suddenly, there was a crisp sound of glass breaking, which overlapped with her rapid heartbeat, "Bang!"

When she heard the sound, she raised her eyes and caught a glimpse of the glittering glass fragments. Her green eyes reflected the red color flowing on one of the fragments.

Warm darkness suddenly hit.

Suzuki Sonoko's eyes that were just halfway up were covered by a palm.

Before she could see too much, her retinas still retained the bright color coated with sunlight, like golden-red blood, and she couldn't help but let out a short confused sound from her throat, "Huh?"

The sound of glass shards hitting the ground and walls resounded, which melted away Suzuki Sonoko's doubtful voice, and was deafening, completely suppressing her heartbeat. She felt vaguely in the darkness with some warmth from the sun. .

The palm on the face belonged to an adult, and was cooler than a normal person's body temperature. When it fell on Suzuki Sonoko's face, which was a bit warm due to panic and rapid heartbeat, it was even cooler, which made her feel more vivid. .

She clearly felt that the index finger of that hand pressed lightly on her brow, and the fingertip pressed the end of one of her eyebrows. The base of her ring finger was attached to the end of her nose, and lined up with the base of her middle finger. On the curvature line of the bridge of the nose, the little finger is placed on the tip of the nose.

In the airflow of breathing, the little finger moved, as if it was uncomfortable.

Correspondingly, Suzuki Sonoko smelled a faint scent of mint. Before she could react, she smelled it a few more times. The tip of her nose quivered and got between the ring finger and little finger of that hand, and her lips I encountered a hint of coolness.

In just a moment, the little finger immediately moved up, and the coolness left.

Then, Suzuki Sonoko heard a short laugh.

It was short and light. It sounded like the intruder who suddenly broke in and covered her eyes was a young man.

Her eyes were rounder, her eyelashes were blinking frequently, and she glanced at her palms. Her ears suddenly turned red, "You,"

It's incredible that after she came to her senses and could finally speak, Suzuki Sonoko, who could still lie strong enough to ask for help in the face of the robbers, actually realized that she felt a little pitiful and aggrieved.

Just like a person who is strong in front of outsiders, who has endured hardships and been wronged but can still seek justice for himself with an expression of indifference and never shed a drop of tears, but in front of the people he is close to and trusts because of a little I feel like crying over little things.

She blinked quickly to relieve her wet eyes, then reached out to grab the wrist of the hand covering her eyes, soothing her sore and swollen throat and nose, and then asked cautiously: "Are you here to save me?"

And before getting the answer, he had already asked and answered himself: Yes.

……Amazing.

This rescuer is so powerful. There are so many robbers in the factory, but he can sneak in quietly. The floor was so high, but he easily climbed in from the window. Before the glass fragments spread out and splashed, and the hostage himself didn't even raise his eyes to see clearly, he had already landed and covered the hostage's eyes with his hands.

Super awesome!

Are they police officers? Or an agent? Even more powerful than those flying and escaping agents in the movies!
But why cover her eyes?
At the moment when this question arose, Suzuki Sonoko heard the laughing sound again, this time it was softer, as if the other party heard or saw something interesting and laughed, and politely did not do so in front of others. The smiling face laughed out loud, making only a little sound, laughing silently.

But the distance was too close, Suzuki Sonoko could still hear it.

she:"?"

Surprisingly, after hearing only a little bit of the stranger's laughter and quickly deciphering the other person's meaning like an acquaintance she had been with day and night, she didn't even have the slightest clue what was going on. As a police officer, , how can you laugh at the hostages! 'Such embarrassment, shyness and slight annoyance are only a very subtle habit, as if the other person is a friend with a bad personality who often teases her, and she has long been used to it.

In contrast to this subtle sense of familiarity, she felt a real sense of unfamiliarity with her rescuer.

The sense of familiarity and strangeness intertwined, forming a somewhat absurd sense of unreality. Suzuki Sonoko blinked again.

She felt that the palm on her face was a little farther away. Although it still blocked her field of vision, she could already see the sunlight flowing in between her fingers, and she could also see the ground under the edge of the palm at the bottom. She saw One knee rests on the knee in front of you, and the heel on the side of the shoe only shows a little edge on the side of the leg.

Those are police uniform pants.

Suzuki Sonoko kept blinking.

A cell phone clicked, and after the clear beep indicating the start of recording, Kudo Yusaku's voice came, "Don't be afraid, Mochizuki,"

"Follow the young brother who found you. He is here to save you. Don't be afraid of him."

His voice was gentle and hesitant.

It's because I trust the rescuer, but I don't really trust it.

If it were normal, Suzuki Sonoko would not be able to hear the hesitation that Kudo Yusaku barely revealed, but now, she can hear it, and even the source of the hesitation, so even though her eyes are still covered, her eyes It's also rounder, and even the cheeks can't help but puff up a bit.

Because: How can you not trust!
There was no reason for this feeling of familiarity either. The unhappiness of protecting the rescuer and hearing that he was not trusted came and went as quickly as it came.

It almost only rose for a moment. Just when Suzuki Sonoko noticed that he was surprised, he heard the voice that belonged to a human being and was not a recording, and immediately disappeared without any time to care. "Did you hear it?"

The rescuer said: "Don't be afraid of me, just follow me."

He laughed again, "Well, you can't see, you're not afraid, the blue bar is rising."

"...Ahem, 'Miss Mochizuki', I discovered the secret to clearing you."

This is not a polite and conciliatory attitude towards unfamiliar children, but an attitude towards familiar children, with a little bit of acknowledgment, not annoying, but just familiar.

Even if he didn't answer Suzuki Sonoko's words at all, it was obvious that he was a bit bad. He was not a serious rescue police officer, but rather someone who casually put on a police uniform to save people.

Suzuki Sonoko felt the intimacy.

The human police rescued the hostages with the help of 'Human police', and laughed at the hostages if they didn't answer their questions. The human police are bad! ', 'Officer Fox saves people, Hello Fox! Officer Fox speaks human language, Hello Fox! Officer Fox will smile, Hello Fox! Officer Fox is afraid that the hostages will be scared and will touch their eyes. Fox is good! ! ! ', a bit of intimacy that means a person is good and a cat is bad.

But why 'fox'?
She was a little confused about her lack of time to think, but she also felt that it made sense: 'Fox' suited this rescuer so well!
"Hello, fox,"

Suzuki Sonoko squeezed the rescuer's hand and mustered up her courage, "Thank you for coming to save me."

She raised her face and rubbed her cheek against the palm that was still covering her eyes, "Have I seen you somewhere?"

The rescuer stopped laughing.

The room suddenly became quiet, making the hurried footsteps and sporadic warning sounds that no one cared about below became louder.

Suzuki Sonoko waited for a few seconds, feeling a little embarrassed, "...Fox?"

In the silence, she heard a voice that sounded a bit like a fox baring its teeth in displeasure, and a perfunctory reply without a smile, "Ah, yes, yes, yes."

"Again."

'again'?
Before Suzuki Sonoko could react, she was picked up, and the rescuer's voice rose again, "Hey, they found out that I've infiltrated, no, I have to leave as soon as possible,"

"Otherwise," he once again made a threatening voice like a fox, and continued the second half of the sentence quietly, "the child will be disturbed in the middle of eating fresh food."

"Foxes don't like to be disturbed when they're eating children."

--Why?

This, this means...this rescuer is not a human, is he really a fox?

It sounds very much like teasing a child. If someone else said it, Suzuki Sonoko would not believe it, but now when the rescuer said it, she believed it without hesitation. She was not surprised at all, but felt that it should be the case. , as if she already knew that the other person was a fox before he confessed.

Like the feeling of familiarity, this feeling is somewhat inexplicable.

"Oh," Suzuki Sonoko responded obediently, "then let's go quickly."

She didn't seem to hear the true and false threat of 'I'm going to eat you', and took the initiative to wrap her arms around the rescuer's neck. After taking away the hands covering her face, she moved her face to the other person's neck and shoulders, "Am I Have you seen me before, Brother Fox?”

Otherwise, why would there be an inexplicable feeling of familiarity?

But there are really no relevant fragments in her memory.

that……

Could it be some 'past and present lives'?
In her previous life, she knew a fox, but she died and was reincarnated as a human? That's why when she was in danger, the fox came to save her. That's why she felt that the fox was familiar yet strange, with a kind of intimacy and affection that seemed to melt into her soul.

reasonable.

But the rescuer said: "Don't strike up a conversation."

His hand patted Suzuki Sonoko's head very gently to show his positive attitude towards her taking the initiative to adjust her posture to make it easier for him to go downstairs, but his tone was a bit disgusting, "Bad habit."

Then he said: "Are you so cooperative? I want to eat you. I will eat you as soon as I leave the factory?"

"Are not you afraid?"

Suzuki Sonoko smelled the smell of mint from the rescuer's neck. She twitched the tip of her nose a few times, and the piece of skin she touched immediately moved away. The rescuer tilted his head while threatening to say the next few words.

Sounds a lot like that.

So Suzuki Sonoko knew: Oh, what a good fox with a sharp mouth and a bad mouth,

It's tsundere.

She nodded and replied in a similar way, "I'm scared, so scared, wuwu, please don't eat me, okay."

Rescuers:"……"

He flicked Suzuki Sonoko on the forehead and said, "Tsk, the tone sounded scary, and there was no threatening feedback at all."

"Are you a sniffer? Why are you sniffing around all the time? Trivia, I am not a gold coin."

"They're almost there, ready to jump."

Suzuki Sonoko immediately hugged her rescuer tightly, hugging her like an octopus. Her cheek was pressed against the side of the other person's neck, which was warmer than her hands, and her eyes were closed tightly. "Okay."

Before the whole syllable was spoken, it suddenly turned into a scream with the feeling of falling.

Rescuers are jumping off buildings.

He only jumped one level at a time, and the feeling of falling came quickly and urgently. Before Suzuki Sonoko could digest it, it came again the next time.

She could only hug her rescuer tighter, closing her eyes tightly, not even daring to look down.

After several jumps, she felt the rescuer take her through the window, "Okay, okay?"

During the questioning, she still closed her eyes tightly, fearing to jump off the building and to see the rescuer's face.

Because the rescuer obviously didn't want her to see his face. There might be some taboos. For example, if you look at it, you can see things that humans are not supposed to see when encountering evil. For example, if you look at it, you will stay in hell forever, and you will never be able to meet the fox again. .

"It's better," the rescuer replied, "but not completely."

He said seriously, "Not only did they not surrender, they dared to fight back. No, I have to snipe them."

Translation by Sonoko Suzuki: Oh, the fox is taking risks.

Her eyebrows drooped down with a pitiful expression, "Okay,"

Then he reacted, "Sniper?" The fox actually knows how to use a human sniper rifle? !

will use.

Just not a sniper rifle, but a pistol.

The rescuer was very good. During the gun battle in the factory, he was not hit by a bullet once. As someone who could only hear sounds with his eyes closed, Suzuki Sonoko should have been scared, but as long as he thought about it, the rescuer was not a human, but a fox. It was a god, so I was afraid that she would hit the muzzle of the gun. As long as the gods wanted to protect her, they could definitely protect her, and she was not afraid at all.

Amidst the dense and messy gunfire, she was like a well-behaved fox cub, obediently hugging the rescuer's neck from beginning to end, only closing her eyes to listen to the robbers' cries of pain and loud noises after being shot. Hum.

The screams and exchanges of pain were intense.

Often a robber just screams in pain, reluctantly changes his gun or reports the situation to his companions, and then screams in pain again.

One robber even screamed in pain five or six times.

Very poor.

But deserved it.

Who asked him to kidnap people and make the fox unhappy.

Robbers kidnap children, robbers are bad, foxes fight robbers, foxes are good.

Robbers are stinky, but foxes only kill them but don’t eat them. Foxes are good! What a fox!

'Good Fox' was wondering, "That guy was obviously standing by the same window as the guy before. Why did he aim at the center of the window before and only hit his left shoulder? Just now he aimed a little to the right of the center of the window and hit his right leg?"

"...There's something wrong with the rifling."

"There is something wrong with the rifling of this gun," the rescuer said seriously. "There is something wrong with the child. The child affects my power and posture."

He suddenly said, "No wonder."

"Even so, I can still hit five or six out of ten. I am really a sharpshooter."

Translated by Sonoko Suzuki: The fox is taking risks in a serious manner. It is not that its shooting skills are bad but it is arrogant. It is playing with its prey, just like a cat playing with a mouse.

She closed her eyes tightly, buried her nose in the collar of the rescuer, and heated the skin a lot. She did not smell the smell of blood outside, only the smell of mint, and acted seriously like the bad fox's accomplice, "Well! You are a sharpshooter. !”

"You are very powerful. If you can use a gun, you will be very powerful!"

This is the truth.

A fox is very powerful if he can use a gun.

But the rescuer didn't say anything. He just walked across a robber-like floor that had lost its combat effectiveness, climbed out of the window, and jumped to the first floor.

He hugged Suzuki Sonoko and sat on the motorcycle, then said quietly, "Children can't be weird, reject it."

Suzuki Sonoko still hugged the rescuer and turned her back to the blowing wind. She felt the huge vibration and buzzing sound of the motorcycle. Her eyelashes trembled a few times, and finally she opened them carefully.

She looked up at the rescuer's face, only looking at the neck and shoulders near her face, and said in a daze: "I don't have any yin and yang spirits."

"that……"

"Did you take your clothes from other humans?"

One of the rescuer's hands was holding the handlebar of the motorcycle, and the other was holding Suzuki Sonoko's waist. Hearing this, he glanced sideways at the police uniform he was wearing, "Hey, you saw it."

The child is just a child and not blind. Of course he can see it. What's going on with his somewhat surprised tone!

Suzuki Sonoko arched her collar angrily, opening the two layers of collar of the rescuer.

The top layer is a police uniform, and the bottom layer looks like a sweatshirt collar.

"I opened my eyes," she said unhappily. "The uniform seems to be a few sizes too big. It doesn't smell like mint. Of course I can notice it."

Then he asked: "Fox, you also know the police, can you borrow some clothes?"

Shouldn't we just conjure up clothes?

"Foxes can't," the rescuer replied casually, "but man-eating foxes can."

He breathed out and became serious again, "I ate a passing police officer and put on his clothes. Next, I will eat you, put on your clothes, and use your appearance to meet your family." , your family will never find out that you are dead, how about that, are you afraid?"

"Tell me, how do you want to be eaten by me?"

When he was pretending to breathe, the rescuer's neck was tense. Suzuki Sonoko subconsciously leaned over and smelled it, and then replied slowly: "I'm scared. Can I add some sugar?"

"Will you wash me before eating?" She was a little worried, "No, I need a girl to wash me."

He added, "Mom said that only a gentle, good-looking fox sister with beautiful hands and a fragrance as sweet as you can wash me."

There are also some Qiqi Ai Ai, "Can you transform?"

She was justified, "You are very gentle, and I think you are also very handsome. Your fingers are long and your hands are beautiful. I saw it, and it smells like mint."

Pretty good at picking.

The rescuer was silent again.

After a moment, he tilted his head and said, "...stop sniffing around, I can feel it. Are you a man-eating fox, or am I a man-eating fox? You know the difference between the sexes, so don't keep sniffing me."

and, "Me, gentle?"

The praise was so good that even if it was just repeated, the rescuer would pause again and again before continuing, "Ah, yes, yes, yes."

This time, Suzuki Sonoko heard the perfunctory disdain, like a cat's disdain for pushing away a human's face with its paws when being kissed, and immediately said: "But you are really gentle,"

A specific example is: "You will be unhappy if I rub against you, but you will not push me away immediately. You will stay away from me only after I rub against you repeatedly."

She said solemnly: "You are a good fox."

He just has a bad mouth and loves to bully children.

But he is a fox.

Rescuer: "Oh."

"Why are you unhappy?" Suzuki Sonoko was very distressed. She touched the rescuer's back with her hand and smoothed the hair. "Don't be unhappy."

She thought for a moment, then raised her eyes happily, "I know."

"You look like a human now, so I shouldn't call you a fox, right? You are a good one!"

Rescuers:"……"

When the motorcycle bumped, Suzuki Sonoko was shocked and lost her temper. She hugged the rescuer tightly and said, "One by one, you are a good person."

"Don't be angry, okay? I'm sorry."

"...Don't be such a spoiled brat," the rescuer said, "I am a man-eating fox."

Wasn't it quite scary the first few times?

Why is he so familiar with himself now? When he sees a rescuer of unknown origin, he can immediately stick to him.

Suzuki Sonoko: "Okay."

It's perfunctory.

The rescuer let go of the hand holding the handlebar of the motorcycle, and when Suzuki Sonoko felt something was wrong with her balance and wanted to scream, she flicked her forehead, then held the handlebar again to stabilize the motorcycle, "Tsk. "

After re-stabilizing for a few seconds, Suzuki Sonoko calmed down and said, "Okay, you are a fox who is very good to humans."

Apparently only ten minutes had passed, and she was no longer as nervous and frightened as she was in the factory, only feeling quite relaxed and brisk, as if she had never encountered a kidnapping case.

She told the truth, "Actually, I don't know what happened. The moment I saw you, I felt that you must be a super, super, super good fox."

The kind that would save her again and again.

Just like the rescuers had saved her many, many times among countless memory fragments that she could not remember. Even if the memory fragments dimmed and shattered, she still retained her instinct.

The rescuer was silent again.

The motorcycle speeds through the streets, which are either occupied or deserted, leaving only the sound of the motorcycle and a fleeting afterimage to the pedestrians on the roadside.

After escaping so far, it was actually possible to slow down, but the rescuer did not slow down, and Suzuki Sonoko did not ask the rescuer to slow down. She looked at the patches of road spitted out by the rear wheels of the motorcycle and whispered: "Thank you. "

"I was just scared. Thank you for coming to save me."

Then he asked: "You must like humans very much, am I your favorite human?"

Otherwise, why come to her? Otherwise, how could she have so many subtle feelings?

"..." After continued silence, the rescuer had to say, "No,"

"I don't like humans."

Translated by Sonoko Suzuki: A fox with a bad mouth and a bad heart.

She nodded, "Oh, then you must like me very much!"

"You obviously don't like humans, but you still treat me so well. You must like me very much."

"Was I your lover before?"

Rescuers:"?"

Rescuers:"……"

He slowed down the car and asked politely, "Hello, passenger, our destination is the police station. Would you like to change the destination to the hospital?"

Suzuki Sonoko: "I'm sorry!"

Although she didn't know why the fox was angry again, she didn't hesitate to admit her mistake. After all, the other person was a fox. If he was unhappy, humans should be coaxed.

"Then," she changed the question, "Why do you hate humans?"

Rescuer corrected: "Not annoying."

"But if you don't like it, it means you hate it," Suzuki Sonoko was puzzled. "If you don't like it, it means you like it."

Following the rescuer's correction, she asked again: "Why do you like humans?"

Rescuers:"……"

"Okay," Suzuki Sonoko asked again, "Don't be angry. I'll ask again, why don't you like humans?"

because……

Human beings are things that can swallow up all kinds of desires and distort themselves into inhuman existences.
