Conan: I am really a good person

Chapter 391: Rum's Clue

A sad future.

He pretended.

He pretended to be very serious, so that people who didn't speak Japanese would just think he was just saying something like "what to eat today" or "how long until we get to the destination" instead of talking about his "family situation".

But as long as you can understand Japanese and have normal emotional intelligence, you will not think that he really doesn't care and that's why his tone is flat.

Suzuki Sonoko: "!"

The smile that had been blooming unconsciously on her face had disappeared when Yi Tiao Wei said that his parents died young. Now she frowned. She felt worried and wanted to comfort him, but she knew that since Yi Tiao Wei could say it, he didn't need comfort. After thinking about it, she made a difficult decision: should she beat the naughty kid once, twice, or three times?
Kogoro Mouri, who was sitting in the driver's seat, couldn't help but look at the rearview mirror a few more times.

He had only had a few contacts with Ichijo Mirai, so he wasn't very familiar with them. He hadn't spoken to her today, neither greeting her cheerfully nor murmuring about this recently famous and outstanding detective, partly because this detective's target was obviously Suzuki Sonoko.

Then it's not 'the suspicious enemy sneaking around my daughter', but 'the boyfriend of my daughter's friend'. There's no need to find fault with it by looking at it from all angles.

The other part is because of the future red eyes.

Ten years ago, the red morning star that shone brightly in the sky was quite famous. Unfortunately, he died before he could become a full-time police officer, leaving only a dim arc of a falling meteor in the sky. In addition, ten years have passed, and most people no longer remember it. But that is only ordinary people who have little contact with the police.

But in the future, Ichijo is a detective with outstanding abilities, he has red eyes, and his last name is "Ichijo". When people in related fields see him again, it is hard not to think of that short period of active red.

Then the problem is coming...

Is Yitiao the future, the relative of the outstanding police officer from ten years ago, or the police officer himself?
If it was the former, it wouldn't be a big deal, since they had different surnames and were probably not that related. But if it was the latter, it would involve the delicate question of why an outstanding police officer who had died was actually alive and had changed his name to become a completely different person, which might be mixed with police secrets.

It also means there will definitely be trouble.

Kogoro Mouri didn't drink today, so of course it was impossible for him to bump into them with a red face and one foot light and one heavy, and it was even more impossible for him to ask his questions directly with a big tongue. He glanced at Conan again and muttered to himself: This brat is not just asking questions at the crime scene.

But this time the questions were asked well. He didn't ask anything that shouldn't be asked, but he also asked some subtle questions that allowed people to get some of the information they wanted to know.

...Forget it. I won't punch him on the spot. I'll wait until he makes trouble again at the crime scene and then I'll punch him harder than usual.

Conan was completely unaware that a dark cloud was slowly falling over his head. He was carefully controlling his eyes, "No wonder I haven't heard of Future Brother. It turns out to be..."

His eyes lit up for two reasons. One was that he got a clue, and the other was that Ichijo Mirai was very honest and did not lie. His statement was consistent with that of Akai Shuichi, so the probability that he was "Satan" decreased.

"Well," Ichijo Mirai smiled at Suzuki Sonoko, and seeing her frown relax unconsciously, he said to Conan, "There is another reason why I didn't mention him much. Although we are brothers, our parents died young, so we didn't have much time to spend together."

So not too close.

He couldn't say this out loud, so he could only tactfully press the air shot button and let the other person handle it. After saying this, his eyes swept from Conan's thoughtful expression, then looked at Suzuki Sonoko, who also narrowed his eyes thoughtfully, then quickly smiled, as if hesitating for a few seconds, and turned his head to her and said: "Although..."

"But we didn't spend much time together, and we had different ideas," he paused at the end, his eyes swept over Suzuki Sonoko again, and then said, "Under normal circumstances, our relationship is not very good."

Conan saw it all and came to the conclusion without hesitation: the explanation to them had already been given, and these more detailed explanations were specifically for Suzuki Sonoko.

When talking to someone you like, you need to be more detailed. He didn't notice anything wrong and immediately started to sort out the information after giving the definition: 'Satan' and 'Messiah' don't have a good relationship.

Shuichi Akai mentioned this. According to his initial guess, Messiah discovered that Satan was dead only after he had not heard from him for a long time. The twins probably did not contact each other often and had a bad relationship.

They are blood relatives who usually have a bad relationship but will avenge each other.

Although this speculation was overturned after sharing information with Morobushi Kagemitsu, ignoring the New York period when he might have been deliberately erratic due to the mission, and only looking at the "Messiah" during the police academy period, it is indeed hard to believe that such a righteous person would have a good relationship with a guy like "Satan". After analyzing it, Conan breathed a sigh of relief: it is unlikely that "Satan" disguised as "Messiah" would confess such words, and the probability of "Satan" has dropped again.

He was just about to cheer himself up and strike while the iron was hot to make sure, when he heard a sudden chorus of cheers from children not far away.

It was transmitted from the car of Professor Agasa and his team.

Ichijo Future looked over when he heard the voice, still smiling, and changed the subject, "We're at the amusement park."

You don't need to look forward, you can get this information just by listening to the cheers of the children. Dr. Agasa's car is now almost in chaos. Whether it is the children in the passenger seat or the children in the back seat, they are all stretching their arms and cheering, like a bunch of swaying little mushrooms.

There was a cluster that was particularly short, almost half the height of the other 'mushrooms', and it was quietly huddled in the corner without moving. It stood out among Professor Agasa, who was frantically turning around to remind the children not to move, and the children who were cheering and wishing they could fly into the amusement park immediately.

Looking over, I could only see the top of the child's brown hair occasionally showing through his figure.

Suddenly, the brown hair began to move.

Instead of joining the cheering children, it shrank further and began to tremble, like a little chicken being stared at by an eagle, shivering and squatting on the spot waiting to die. Its entire body almost shrank off the seat. A child who was cheering noticed it in time. She looked down, patted her arm below with concern, and said something with a worried expression.

Ichijo Future looked at it twice more, but didn't react at first. He just looked around and collected information out of habit. He reacted halfway through collecting information: Wait, Shirley?

that……

Oh she's a breathalyser.

He immediately looked away as if nothing had happened, as if he was just happy that Conan had made friends and looked at him a few more times without any other intention, and said to Conan calmly: "It seems that your friends are very happy."

"Have you planned what to play in advance? Have some fun today. After all, you are still children, but..."

Yitiao Wei showed a slight hesitation, did not continue speaking, just smiled.

*
The hook is straight and the bait is salty.

But the brave detective is always good at taking the bait. He didn't even have to wait to play the rides. While queuing to enter, Conan took advantage of Ran Maori looking for something and very naturally grabbed the hem of the future's clothes.

He asked quietly: "Future brother, you look a little strange today."

When Yichiwei looked down, he also looked up, no longer using the tone of a child, but the tone of equal communication between adults, "Your attitude towards Yuanzi today is very..."

It is clear.

Not only did he keep looking at her when they first met, he also told her about some of his relatives and even went out of his way to explain it to her in detail.

This is almost a clear signal that "I want to pursue you", so I explained my personal situation.

But Ichijo Mirai's attitude before was clearly ambiguous. Conan speculated that he was not good at pursuing people, had the idea of ​​falling in love for the first time, and was concerned about the existence of the organization.

Now there has been a turning point, what does it mean?
"Is it obvious?"

A future question, and then explained indirectly in the voice of a whisper: "I got a new clue about Rum."
