The sixth man of Conan's police academy

Chapter 259 Mr. Black Cat
New York at night shows off its night city style, with neon lights woven together to form a bustling scene.

However, the arrival of rain made the night feel colder and quieter. Especially in the deep alleys, the sound of wild cats turning over trash cans and the occasional meowing sounds also seemed permeable.

The leather Martin boots splashed water on the bricks. Sasashima Ritsu put his hands in his pockets. His destination was an alley that had nothing to do with prosperity - both sides were lined with abandoned residential buildings and noisy streets. Diametrically opposed.

However, just as he was about to enter the alley, a yellow taxi entered the alley ahead of him.

Taking shortcuts often leads to trouble. This is not a place where ordinary citizens should come.

It's just that he didn't expect that the taxi stopped just like that, even at the entrance of the building where Belmode was.

After seeing the people getting out of the car clearly, Sasashima Ritsu entered the abandoned building nearby and carefully observed the movements of the two people.

Holding a black umbrella, Mao Lilan looked around but couldn't find the light pink handkerchief. She frowned and said puzzledly: "It's strange. It obviously fell nearby. Could it have been blown by the wind?" Are you leaving?"

Kudo Shinichi narrowed his eyes, and the straight man said: "Forget it, it's just a handkerchief anyway."

"This is not an ordinary handkerchief! That handkerchief was given to me by Sharon!" Mao Lilan said dissatisfied, but she quickly recalled what Sharon said to her.

——"Let me just say, there is no god in this world."

Ritsu Sasashima, who was hiding in the dark, pursed his thin lips into a straight line after hearing these words. At some point, Belmode, who was good at pretending to be cautious in times of trouble, would also reveal a fatal flaw.

"Hey, is that the one?"

After learning that the handkerchief had a special meaning for Xiaolan, Kudo Shinichi also temporarily brought back the emotional intelligence of running away from home. He slightly raised his chin and motioned for Xiaolan to look up.

"Look, there's a handkerchief hooked on the handrail of that staircase."

"that is true!"

Kudo Shinichi walked towards the abandoned residential building. After looking inside a few times, he put away his umbrella and said, "It seems that no one lives in this building. I'll take it down for you. Go back to the car and wait for me."

——"If there is a God, you will not be hurt now."

——"Thank you, sweet angel. You help me do it."

Mao Lilan's mind was no longer on the handkerchief at this time, thinking of what Sharon and Rose said to her.

Could it be that Sharon knew from the beginning that the murderer of this murder was Rose?Is that why I said that when I saved her life?

what to do?If he hadn't saved him in the first place...would Mr. Sith not have died?
So, was it all my fault?
Step, step... step.

Tears filled her eyes, and she bit her lower lip stubbornly, trying to hold back the soreness, but she did not hear the dull sound of leather shoes on the waterlogged road from far to near.

When Mao Lilan came back to her senses, a Japanese man wearing a long stand-collar windbreaker and short black hair stood not far in front of her.A Japanese man who would appear in a deserted alley at such a time...could he be? !

Looking down, Mao Lilan keenly captured the sense of crisis as the man approached her step by step.The left hand hidden in the pocket of the windbreaker was pulled out, revealing the outline of a cold firearm - it was a pistol.

"Hey! Herry up! He must be the murderer!"

When the driver saw that Mao Lilan didn't respond, he had no choice but to step on the accelerator, start the car and drive away. Obviously he didn't want to get involved in the case, and he might even lose his life.

The man in a black trench coat looked at the girl with tears in his eyes expressionlessly. He looked like someone who was vaguely in his memory. He looked like her... and she loved to cry.

"You are japanese?"

Hearing the familiar Japanese language, the look of fear on Mao Lilan's face could not fade away. Her trembling hands tried hard to hold the umbrella handle. She was thinking about her chances of winning when facing the pistol.

"I asked you if you are Japanese."

"Huh? I-I am!"

Mao Lilan replied nervously, as if he was caught by the class teacher for deserting in class.

The man bent down slightly with his hands in his pockets, trying to soften his tone as much as possible, and asked, "Did you see a suspicious man? It's a Japanese with long hair dyed silver and a beard. "

"No, I didn't see this person."

A black Chevrolet sped into the alley and stopped behind the man.Under the illumination of the headlights, his whole body was bathed in a warm glow.

Even so, Mao Lilan still felt that the man in front of her gave people a chilling feeling, so that she kept taking half a step back with her right foot, and she did not want to get close to him.

"Have you found him? (Have you found him?)"

"No. I have only found a tourist, He probably hasn't come to this street. (No, I have only found a tourist, He probably hasn't come to this street.)"

The man's deep voice combined with the patter of rain made the scene inexplicably harmonious.

Black suits him very well, and black seems to be tailor-made for him.

His gaze briefly stayed on Mao Lilan's face for a second, then looked at the brown-haired young man behind him again, and said solemnly: "The beast I was fighting with could not let go of prey like her. (The beast I fought with could not let go of prey like her.) It’s impossible to let go of prey like her.)”

Finally, the man was willing to pull out his right hand from his pocket, grabbed Mao Lilan's left elbow, and said, "All in all, this place is dangerous. Turn right at the corner ahead and you'll get to the main road. You can call a taxi there."

"But I want to wait here for a friend of mine!" Mao Lilan gently struggled to open the hand, and she explained aloud: "He is my classmate in the first year of high school."

"Then I want to give you and your friends a warning." The man was not annoyed when his hand was thrown away. He turned his head and scolded coldly: "Get out of here! Leave this place immediately!"

The young man with brown hair couldn't help but ask: "We leave her here? (Are we going to leave her here?)"

“No problem, the exit of this alley has been blocked by us. (No problem, the exit of this alley has been blocked by us.)”

The scarlet eyes were particularly obvious in the dark environment. Ritsu Sasashima, who was hiding behind the wall, slightly raised his thin lips. He felt inexplicably happy. Maybe he saw the long-lost... Mr. Black Cat.

But what's really surprising is that the long hair like Gin was actually cut off.

Sasashima Ritsu silently watched the figure disappearing into the alley, and his eyes shifted, falling on Mao Lilan who walked into the abandoned residential building...Are all high school students so courageous now?He dared to step in even though he knew there was a dangerous person nearby.

He climbed over the window with great skill and landed smoothly on the ground. His black uniform blended into the rainy night, and he quietly approached the brave men who had mistakenly entered the witch's territory.

Mr. Black Cat, who got into the car, rolled down the window and leaned back as if he noticed something.

The rain was still wet on his handsome face, and his dark green pupils were staring at the passing entrance of the alley.

"Akai, what are you looking at? (Akai, what are you looking at?)"

"It''s nothing. (Nothing.)"

It's an illusion.

Maybe it was because he saw a girl who looked similar to her that she fantasized about him appearing next to her.

Akai Shuichi rolled up the car window and leaned on the back seat of the car slightly tiredly. What happened a year ago came to his mind. It was the day he regretted most.

It wasn't that he regretted Kamel's plan to arrest Gin, but that he regretted the three shots he fired.

What was I thinking at that time?Probably because he wanted to wear down the organization a little more before the mission failed.

But who would have thought that what he did was not to devastate the organization... but to nearly bring him to his knees.

Akai Shuichi regretted very few things, but just before leaving the organization, he regretted twice.

He regretted using her to enter the organization, and also regretted killing him to leave the organization.

Why the long hair was cut short, only he knew.

He wanted to draw a line.Draw a clear line between Morohoshidai, Rai and Akai Shuichi.

The ones left with regret and remorse are Morohoshi and Rai, not Shuichi Akai.

Only in this way can the feeling of guilt be reduced.

It was just self-deception, he knew it.
