Ke Xue: This police officer is too martial

Chapter 194 The Tenacious Little White Mouse
2-chome, Beika-cho, in front of Makino's house.

Huihara Yuki and Makino waved goodbye to Huihara Ai who was carrying her schoolbag.

Unlike the "joy" on the faces of Haibara Yuki and Makino, Haibara Ai's face only had a helpless expression of compromise with fate.

After Haibara Ai walked away, Haibara Yuki, who had been smiling, slowly put down her arms and a mist appeared in her eyes.

After wiping his eyes with his hand, Huihara Yuki looked at Makino embarrassedly and chuckled, "Sorry, I actually dreamed of a similar scene before. My sister is different from me. The organization saw her talent, so she left us when she was young and went to study abroad alone."

"I dreamed of sending my sister to school in person, just like an ordinary person, so that she could experience and understand what the life of an 'ordinary person' is like."

At this point, Huiyuan Xing glanced at Xiao Ai's receding figure, shook her head and smiled: "Although Xiao Ai doesn't say it, I can feel that she actually wants to live an ordinary life and enjoy the stage of life that most people will experience..."

Hearing this, Makino nodded silently.

For Haibara Ai, who has been in the darkness for a long time, "ordinary life under the sun" may be the light she longs for.

This can be seen from the fact that Haibara Ai was initially very resistant to going to elementary school, but she resolutely carried a small schoolbag.

After all, Haibara Ai is already an adult at heart, and an adult with extremely high IQ and rich knowledge.

If she really didn't want to go to school, her sister Huihara Yuki couldn't force her.

To put it bluntly, Haibara Ai was actually a little moved, and she also wanted to experience what it was like to go to school like a normal person.

This is what is called "saying one thing but doing another".

……

Teitan Elementary School, Grade 1, Class B.

As soon as Conan sat down, he heard the excited conversation between Mitsuhiko and others.

"Did you hear that?!"

"I heard it! I didn't expect that besides Conan, there would be another transfer student to our class midway!"

“I don’t know what kind of person he is~”

"..."

Although he heard the conversation between several people, Conan was not interested at all.

Rather than gossiping about "what kind of person is the new transfer student", he was more concerned about Yukiko's strange smile after she accepted his request two days ago.

That unreliable mother, is she going to play some "sudden attack prank" again?

Before Conan could think about it, Ayumi suddenly walked up to him and asked with great interest: "Conan, what do you think of the new transfer student?"

"It doesn't matter what kind of person he is, right? I guess he's just an ordinary boy." Conan said casually.

Before Ayumi could speak, Genta beside her also spoke up: "Ayumi, didn't you go to the teacher's office just now? Didn't you see the transfer student?"

Ayumi shook her head regretfully and said, "No, I just heard that the transfer student's last name seemed to be 'Graybara'."

After hearing the surname "Haibara", Conan suddenly frowned. He always felt like he had heard this surname somewhere.

After recalling it for a while, Conan laughed and shook his head.

I was too nervous. It was just a surname. Maybe I had seen it by accident somewhere.

Besides, he is just an elementary school student and you don’t need to care about it.

——“Wow”

At this moment, the classroom door was suddenly opened, and the head teacher, Ms. Kobayashi, walked to the podium with a girl with short brown hair.

After seeing the little girl's appearance, the class suddenly became excited.

Both boys and girls subconsciously expressed their admiration for this girl who looked very cute.

Seeing this, Teacher Kobayashi smiled and clapped his hands, saying, "Okay, students, go back to your seats~"

--"good!"

Not long after, seeing that all the students in the class sat down in their seats obediently, Teacher Kobayashi picked up a piece of chalk, turned around and wrote the big words "Haihara Ai" on the blackboard.

The next moment, she turned around and glanced at Huihara Ai beside her, then formally introduced her to the classmates: "Classmates, this is Huihara Ai who will be studying with you from today on. Everyone, please get along well~"

Upon hearing this, the whole class immediately said in unison: "Okay~"

Seeing that all the students in the class were so active, Teacher Kobayashi nodded with a smile. It seemed that she didn't have to worry that the new student would be isolated by other students in the class.

"Haihara-san, please choose one of those empty seats as your own~" Teacher Kobayashi said with a chuckle.

"Okay." Haibara Ai glanced at the few empty seats in the audience and finally walked to the third row from the back.

Seeing that the new classmate did not choose the seat next to him, Yuantai pursed his lips in disappointment.

After Huihara Ai sat down in her seat, Teacher Kobayashi nodded gently and clapped his hands, "Okay, students, get ready to start the class."

……

After class, Conan turned his head and glanced at Haibara Ai at the back of the classroom, a look of doubt flashed in his eyes.

For some reason, when he was in class just now, he always felt a chill on his back, as if some terrifying existence was staring at him.

After taking a look at Haibara Ai's calm expression, Conan scratched his head and sighed softly.

What was wrong with me? Why did I doubt a new student?

Although this transfer student named Huiyuan Ai seems a little cold, she is just a child...

Thinking of this, Conan closed his eyes helplessly.

Could it be the aftereffects of losing to Officer Makino for no apparent reason a few days ago, causing him to be overly nervous?

The next second, Conan erased these messy thoughts from his mind and slowly opened his eyes.

As soon as he opened his eyes, Conan saw Ayumi's face which was very close to him.

Seeing this, Conan, who had just relaxed, was startled and subconsciously shouted: "Ah!!"

The originally noisy class was instantly quieted by Conan's scream. Everyone in the class looked at Conan in confusion with strange expressions.

Seeing that Conan was actually scared by her face, Ayumi's eyes turned red instantly.

She originally wanted to ask Conan why he turned his head to look at the new student as soon as the get out of class was over.

I didn't expect Conan to be so scared by her face.

The next moment, Ayumi suppressed her emotions and said, "Conan... do I look so scary?"

Conan: "?"

After seeing Ayumi's expression as if she was about to cry, Conan immediately understood something.

He was about to open his mouth to explain when Mitsuhiko and Genta pushed him into a corner and started to speak:
"Conan! This is too much! Why are you bullying Ayumi?!"

"How dare you say Ayumi looks scary!"

Conan: "..."

Except for Mitsuhiko and Genta, other students in the class also looked at Conan with angry and strange eyes.

After hearing what Mitsuhiko and Genta said, and seeing the strange looks from most of his classmates, Conan suddenly felt a deep sense of powerlessness.

It was clearly not his fault, but facing these unreasonable "kids", he knew that no matter how he explained, he would never be able to make it clear.

After a moment's silence, Conan quickly bowed his head and apologized to Ayumi.

It was not until Ayumi asked to forgive Conan that Mitsuhiko and Genta let Conan go with disdainful expressions, and the other classmates in the class gradually turned their eyes away from Conan. This scene was completely seen by Haibara Ai behind him.

She looked at Conan who kept apologizing to Ayumi, and a smile flashed across her lips.

In addition to wanting to experience what it's like for an ordinary child to go to school, observing mice up close was also one of the important reasons why she agreed to go to school with her sister.

But...is this the high school detective Kudo Shinichi?

Why don't you look very smart?

Could it be that my medicine has the side effect of lowering the IQ of the experimental subjects?

Well, let's wait and see for a while...

……

After school.

Because Haibara Ai was very indifferent, most of the students in the class no longer took the initiative to step forward after being "blocked".

However, Ayumi and the other two were clearly not among the majority of their classmates.

Especially Ayumi, even though she had felt Haibara Ai's coldness, she still did not give up her plan of "making friends" and kept saying something around Haibara Ai.

"Haorihara-san, we are all members of the Junior Detective Team~"

"We are usually responsible for maintaining Mika's safety, and we also help the police with cases from time to time! If Huiyuan wants to join, I can make an exception and let you join!"

"That's not right, Yuantai? Since when have we been responsible for maintaining Mihua's safety?"

"What did you say?! I'm the leader!"

"..."

Haibara Ai was also chatting with a few people in a casual manner.

Conan on the side held his hands behind his head with a bored expression.

Although Ayumi and the others thought that the child was just so cold because he had just transferred to the new school and was a little nervous and uncomfortable.

But Conan didn't think so. This child named Haibara Ai looked like the type that was difficult to get along with.

Through observation, he thought that this child's personality was probably born like this, and this child's psychology was obviously much more mature than Ayumi and the others.

Soon after, as the conversation progressed, everyone arrived at the school gate.

At this time, Ayumi looked at the school gate in front of her, seemed to have thought of something, and said: "Habara-san, you should have just moved here recently, right?"

"Yeah, that's right." Huibara Ai nodded.

Seeing Huihara Ai nod, Ayumi continued: "Today is your first day of school, how about we take you home together!"

Mitsuhiko on the side immediately chimed in, "Right! Since we are already friends, there is no need to be polite! Huihara-san, where is your home?"

Haibara Ai shook her head slightly, ready to refuse.

At this moment, she suddenly found a familiar person standing at the school gate and chuckled, "Thank you, but no thanks. My family is here to pick me up~"

"Your family?"

Upon hearing this, Ayumi and the others immediately looked in the direction that Haibara Ai was looking at out of curiosity.

Although Haibara-san is very polite, she has always been "cold" and has not smiled like this in front of them all day.

Now, they couldn't help but feel a little surprised when they suddenly saw Huibara laughing sadly.

At this moment, Makino was outside the school gate, smiling and waving at them.

After seeing Makino, Ayumi and the others showed surprised expressions on their faces: "Officer Makino? Is the family you are talking about Officer Makino?!"

Conan also looked at Makino outside the school gate in astonishment, then turned to look at Haibara Ai in front of him and blinked in confusion.

Ai Haibara smiled and nodded to Makino who was outside the door.

A few seconds later, everyone quickly walked out of the school gate, surrounded Makino, and started chattering.

"Officer Makino, what is your relationship with Haibara-san?"

"Haiyahara-san, I didn't expect the family you were talking about was actually Officer Makino!"

"That's not right, isn't your last name 'Graybara'..."

"..."

In addition to Ayumi and the other two, Conan also looked up at Makino, his eyes full of question marks, as if to say - "Why didn't I know you had such a relative?"

Makino looked down at everyone and chuckled, "I didn't expect you guys to become friends so quickly. I never had the chance to introduce you to her, but Huibara Ai is my distant cousin who lives near my home."

After hearing what Makino said, Ayumi and the others also understood the relationship between Haibara Ai and Makino.

But then, several people started asking a lot of questions again.

After answering the questions of Ayumi and the others, and asking them to take good care of the newly arrived Haibara Ai, Makino led Haibara Ai away.

Ayumi and the others looked at the backs of Makino and Haibara Ai, and while discussing something about Haibara Ai, they turned and walked in another direction.

"I didn't expect Haibara-san would actually laugh."

"Yeah, she looks very happy!"

"Ayumi, this proves that what you said before was correct! She was just a little nervous in a new environment, so she was so cold to her classmates!"

"..."

Conan's eyes suddenly widened as if he had thought of something, and he thought to himself: "No wonder I feel that the surname 'Huihara' is a bit familiar. Xiaolan seems to have mentioned before that Officer Makino has two distant relatives with the surname Huihara who also came to Tokyo..."

Thinking of this, Conan suddenly saw Makino's smiling face in his mind and twitched his lips.

No wonder I always felt like there was some scary guy staring at me during class. It turned out to be the Makino on that kid’s body…

hateful!

Am I really that afraid of Officer Makino?
Even the little girl from his distant relative's family could scare him? !

……

At the same time, Makino led Haibara Ai into the car.

Huiyuan Ai turned to look at Makino and asked in confusion: "Why did you come to pick me up today?"

Makino smiled and shook his head: "Your sister said that today is your first day of school. To celebrate, let's go out for dinner together tonight~"

"Really? What is there to celebrate?" Haibara Ai sighed helplessly.

Although Haibara Ai said this, the smile on her lips betrayed her mood at the moment.

After glancing at the smile on Huihara Ai's face, Makino chuckled and said, "The elementary school ends too early, and your sister hasn't decided what to eat yet. Let's go back first. Compared to this, how does it feel to see the little white mouse with your own eyes?"

Huihara Ai thought: "Since he didn't die after taking it, it means that there is no problem with the special version of ATPX-4869 that I studied. In addition to the superficial data, his body does not seem to have any obvious reaction or discomfort. It seems that the dosage can be increased next time..."

Hearing this, Makino narrowed his eyes and said, "Huh? You said before that he might die if he took that medicine... were you kidding?"

"Huh? What a joke?" Haibara Ai looked at Makino in confusion.

Makino: "..."
