Thinking of this, her aqua blue eyes couldn't help but look at Beihara Hao beside her.

I came later than you.

Noticing her gaze, Kitahara shrugged and said.

How can I find so many rooms...

Mao Lilan couldn't help but complained softly, and then she reached out and pushed towards the first door on the right.

Hey, who are you—

However, before she could raise her head to look inside, the door was closed by Kitahara Hajime, and the panicked voice from 0.5 inside was immediately isolated inside.

Knock before opening the door, otherwise you will see something bad.

Looking at the girl who was startled by the sound, Kitahara Hao reminded thoughtfully.

If I remember correctly, Xiao Lan was chased by him because he saw the murderer's true size.

Thinking this, Kitahara Hao half-closed his eyes.

See something bad...

Mao Lilan blinked her beautiful eyes and subconsciously looked at Beihara Hao's hanging wrist, her face instantly turned red.

He, what he said couldn't be——

You know, her memory of that rainy night was very clear...

What's wrong with you? Your face is so red all of a sudden?

Do you have a fever?.

090: Sorry, this lady already has an appointment!

Do you have a fever?

Looking at Mao Lilan whose face suddenly turned red, Kitahara Hao asked with some confusion.

No...no.

Mao Lilan clenched the hem of her black clothes with her fingers, looked to the side with a guilty look, and replied in a panic.

She couldn't say that she remembered what she saw under the moonlight that day!

No matter how much you think about it, it’s impossible to say that!

As long as it's okay, let me find the room next.

Kitahara Hao looked at her appearance and didn't ask too many questions.

After all, even asking is in vain.

Based on the current relationship between the two, it is already good that Mao Lilan can respond to him.

After a brief knock on the door and asking, Kitahara found their room in the corner on the left.

His and Mao Lilan's rooms happened to be right next to each other.

See you later, Lan.

After speaking to Mao Lilan who opened the door next to him, Kitahara Hao opened the door and walked in.

“…”

Mao Lilan did not reply, but directly took his luggage, opened his door and walked in.

Throwing the beige backpack aside, she lay on the soft bed 12 as if she had no strength.

His sky-blue eyes gradually stared at the ceiling in confusion, and finally pulled the pillow beside him to cover his face.

Why...are you meeting him here?

When she sees that familiar face, she can't help but think of what happened that night.

Although she said at the time that she would forget what happened that night, for a girl of her age, she would never forget it no matter what, right?

After all, the most precious thing in life was handed over like this... It was impossible to treat it as nothing happened.

Bang bang——

As the knock on the door rang, Suzuki Sonoko's familiar voice came from outside.

Xiaolan, the party is about to start, please remember to come to the living room later!

……I see.

Mao Lilan removed the pillow from his face, took a deep breath, and replied.

She originally thought she could have a good rest in the room, but it seemed like a luxury for her.

After calming down her complicated mood, Mao Lilan also sat up from the bed and subconsciously looked at the sky outside the floor-to-ceiling window, looking slightly stunned.

I don't know when, the originally bright sky has turned gloomy, and you can even see tiny raindrops slowly falling on the balcony, making small splashes.

Is it raining again...

What a nasty weather.

Mao Lilan murmured softly, then stood up and pushed the door open to the living room on the first floor.

…………

In the living room on the first floor.

At this time, the table was already full of people, and there was only one empty seat next to Kitahara Hagi.

Mao Lilan hesitated for a moment and sat on the chair next to him.

Okay, now everyone is ready!

After seeing Mao Lilan come down, Suzuki Sonoko nodded with satisfaction, and then began to introduce everyone.

The first is Suzuki Sonoko's sister - Suzuki Ayako.

It was a man with a brown high ponytail, his narrowed eyes were like crescent moons, and he always had a gentle smile on his face.

She looks completely different from Suzuki Sonoko's personality.

The other four guests were friends Suzuki Ayako met from the film club when she was in college.

Katsu Ohta with long hair, Hiroki Kakutani with a camera and Ryoichi Takahashi who looks very fat.

The remaining one is a woman with short hair, whose identity is the well-known movie script producer-Chikako Ikeda.

Kitahara Hajime's eyes stayed on Takahashi Ryoichi for a while, and the corners of his mouth gradually raised.

This guy must be the murderer.

He used his disguised fat figure to hide the murder weapon and hid the dismembered body of the deceased in his stomach.

That plot was still very deep in his mind.

As for the deceased, it must be the short-haired Ikeda Jimiko next to her.

What did she do to be killed by Takahashi Ryoichi?

Kitahara Haji picked up the lemonade on the table and took a sip, thinking thoughtfully.

Forget it, he was too lazy to think about it.

This is Kitahara Hajime. He is currently working as a police officer in the Investigation Section 1 of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department. He is a very powerful detective!

At this moment, Suzuki Sonoko turned to the group of people and introduced his identity.

Ah, I saw you on TV recently - Chikako Ikeda, who was sitting across from Kitahara, was surprised, I wasn't sure at first, but I didn't expect it was really Officer Kitahara!

You're talking about the live broadcast on Nippon TV that night!

Ohta Masaru smiled and said, I've read it too. Mr. Kitahara's reasoning is really amazing.

Police...police?

Sitting in the corner, Ryoichi Takahashi opened his eyes wide and could not help but have a layer of cold sweat on his forehead.

He really didn't expect that the police would be present at today's party.

but--

Takahashi Ryoichi glanced vaguely at Chikako Ikeda next to him, and quietly clenched his fists under the table.

Even if the police arrive today, they can't save you!

Nice to meet you, Officer Kitahara.

Thinking of this, Takahashi Ryoichi forced a smile on his lips and nodded towards Kitahara Hajime.

Me too, Mr. Takahashi.

Beitahara raised his eyebrows and responded with a chuckle.

…………

The party didn't last long.

When Suzuki Ayako and the others were halfway through their conversation, 977 got into an argument over a woman named Atsuko, and they had to end it early.

Kitahara Hao took a bite of the cookie in his hand, and looked at Mao Lilan who was standing by the window looking at the rainy scene with his brown eyes.

Brother Kitahara, do you two want to go for a walk in the rain?

Suzuki Sonoko sat down on the chair, leaning on the back of the chair, and asked him with a smile.

No interest. I don't like wandering around outside on rainy days.

Kitahara Hao shook his head and said.

Hey, that's it...

Suzuki Sonoko lowered her head in disappointment.

However, at this moment, Kitahara Hao subconsciously half-closed his eyes.

Ota Sheng, who was smoking a cigarette at the side, suddenly walked towards Mao Lilan, and it seemed that he wanted to strike up a conversation.

Seeing this, Kitahara Haoya stood up and walked towards Mao Lilan.

Then Brother Kitahara, should we go - where is the person?

Suzuki Sonoko raised her head and was stunned for a moment after seeing the empty seats.

Where's my older brother Kitahara?

She quickly turned her head to look, and soon saw Kitahara Hao walking past by the window.

At this time, Ota Katsuya came to Mao Lilan and asked with a slight smile.

Miss Maori, let's go outside for a walk together -

Sorry, this lady already has an appointment..

091: Kitahara, are you okay? ?

Sorry, this lady already has an appointment!

Just when Ota Katsu was about to approach Mao Lilan, Kitahara Hajime, who walked by, interrupted what he was about to say.

Have an appointment?

Hearing these words, Ota Sheng stopped and looked at Mao Lilan, who looked dazed, and subconsciously half-squinted his eyes.

Judging from her reaction, it obviously didn't look like she had a date.

Mr. Kitahara, no matter what, I have to do this first...

Ota Sheng frowned and wanted to say a few more words, but then his words suddenly stopped.

I saw that Beihara Hao had already walked to Mao Lilan's side, held her hand directly despite her somewhat panicked expression, and said with a chuckle: Come on, come with me for a walk outside.

Take a walk outside -

Mao Lilan felt the warmth coming from her hands, her petite body trembled slightly, and she looked out the window blankly.
