Ms. Moriarty wants to save Beika Town today too.

"I don't think so."

"why?"

"He looks like a good guy." Winnett saw Xiao Ai frowning, "Just a joke. In fact, it's because of his job... Using cards to refer to targets is almost like exposing Murakami's identity. A person who has just been released from prison and has not yet established himself outside, but uses the method of informing the police of his identity to carry out blatant attacks, this is too bold. This is only one aspect. On the other hand, the criminal's numbering and announcement-style actions are usually linked to a certain sense of ritual. From Murakami's perspective, the only reason he did this was to provoke the police, and provoking the police is of no benefit to him. Those who like to do this are generally highly intelligent criminals. They are usually mysterious and conceited. Murakami ten years ago was obviously no longer in this category. Although the ten years in prison may have changed him, the possibility is too low."

Winnett analyzed the key points of this. She thought that the doctor was just pulled in to make up the number because his name happened to match eleven. So far, thirteen to eleven were just non-lethal tests. She told her thoughts to Ai, who was relieved. If it was true as Winnett said that the people around Kogoro were just used to make up the number, it meant that they would not be in danger of life, and the doctor in the hospital could rest assured to recover from his injuries.

"So, there's no need for you to stay." Xiao Ai glanced at Ming Mei who started to peel the fruit, "Where did they come from?"

Mingmei unwrapped the smooth apple and blinked her eyes. "This was given to me by the old man in the next ward. He said he was fructose intolerant, so he gave it to me."

Could he be a lecherous old man?

"You should go back with Winnet too. The nurse will take care of you."

"We'll go with you, Ai. I heard from the doctor that Dr. Agasa's condition isn't very serious. Once the observation period is over, he can go home and rest! You can stay with us tonight and come back to see the doctor tomorrow morning. We should be able to pick him up in the evening."

"It hurts!"

Dr. Agasa wuwu.

"I do have a special painkiller, Doctor, do you need it? But it has a slight side effect."

"It's better not to use it."

When the doctor heard Xiao Ai talking about the side effects, he immediately calmed down. Mingmei fed him fruit while he lay on the bed. Winette asked Xiao Ai to wait here while she went to a nearby restaurant to buy some food. They had not eaten dinner yet, and Dr. Agasa's stomach was already rumbling.

Five minutes after Winnett left the ward, Mingmei was ready to ask the doctor for some precautions. Although Xiao Ai is also proficient in medicine, the precise treatment still needs to be done by a professional doctor. Mingmei came to the corridor of the ward. Since this area is an area with relatively serious diseases, the atmosphere seemed a bit solemn. No one had a smile on their face, and they were rushing in the corridor like a march. In the duty room, Mingmei took note of Dr. Agasa's "recovery book" in detail. She was about to return to the ward, but was stunned for a moment. At night, even the light became a little dim. In the lobby on this floor, there were several rows of strips of seats. Mingmei glanced in that direction in the dim light, and happened to see a man in a hospital gown. He was wearing a knitted hat that didn't match his clothes. He was holding a can of black coffee in his hand, staring at the wall calmly.

The man quickly noticed her gaze. He raised his head slightly and turned his face towards Mingmei. The atmosphere was tense for a moment, but it was just an appearance. Mingmei's heart had long left her chest and her mind was wandering. The reason for her change was the man sitting in the rest seat - she would never forget that face.

Dai Moroboshi, should I say it's Shuichi Akai.

Although Mingmei had countless things to say and ask, she was not an impulsive person. Even when she was dating Shuichi Akai, she never asked about his affairs, even if she had already noticed something - there was no benefit in making things clear. She thought to herself, was this wrong? This man made her unwilling to maintain the status quo, but at the last moment when she was close to life and death, he did not appear.

She doesn't blame him.

She had long since forgiven the organization that took advantage of her to join.

Although she has left the organization, she is still under the protection of Winnett, and Shuichi Akai is Winnett's enemy. If she begs, Winnett may not target Shuichi Akai, but it will destroy the harmonious relationship built so far. If she uses Akai's relationship to exchange for official protection, it will not work. She can see that Ai will not agree. If such a disagreement causes the sisters who have finally reunited to separate, it is better not to recognize each other. As Winnett said, Akemi Miyano is already a dead person, both to the organization and to him.

After a struggle between her mind and her own, Akemi quickly withdrew her gaze. She was going to go back to Dr. Agasa's ward - that was how it was. At this moment, she saw a foreign woman wearing glasses, smiling and walking towards Akai: they didn't hug or do anything else, but they seemed extremely intimate.

She didn't look, didn't dare to look, and didn't want to look.

I turned my back and followed the ward's door number, trying my best to look like someone who was looking for a ward.

She thought to herself, it was already late at night, and how could the woman who still stayed here to take care of him be just an ordinary friend?

Yes, Miyano Akemi is already dead.

Mingmei repeated it in her mind again, and then walked towards the ward. But when she got there and pushed the door, she hesitated again. She thought that her expression must be very ugly now. He found the happiness that suited him, and she should bless him. She was just a woman who approached him for the task. Maybe there was true love, but it was probably limited. If that lady could replace her, it would not be a good result.

She adjusted her breathing, looked at the transparent floor of the hospital, and checked her expression. It was not because she wanted to ignore the sadness, but because she didn't want her sister and Miss Winnet to worry, especially Miss Winnet. If she knew about Shuichi Akai's existence, things would become complicated. Not only could she not tell her, but she also tried not to let her walk around the hospital too much to avoid the two of them meeting. Mingmei could predict Xiao Ai's attitude, and she also did not support her getting involved with him again.

Taking a deep breath, she returned to the ward.

Winnet had also returned. Judging from her reaction, she probably hadn't met him. On the table were vegetable sandwiches and meat porridge, which Winnet bought from a nearby cafe. It was still steaming. Ai dragged Mingmei to join the dinner, and Winnet fed the porridge to the doctor instead of Ai.

Dr. Agasa was crawling on his stomach, and the situation was a bit difficult because once he straightened his waist, his buttocks would feel severe pain if he exerted force.

Winette understood him very well. There were many children in the hospital who screamed because of injections in their buttocks. It was the same in every country.

Putting down the bowl, Winette turned her eyes to Mingmei. She stared at her for a moment, and took Mingmei with her on the pretext of going to the payment counter. As soon as they went out, she whispered, "What happened? I felt your shoulders shaking. I guess it's not that Dr. Agasa's condition is too serious, but someone related to your past? Don't worry, if you need anything, I will help you, calm down, okay?"

She had tried her best to restrain herself.

Mingmei thought that Miss Winnet's insight was really terrifying.

She nodded. "Wait until we get back. I will probably tell you. Meanwhile, I have one more favor to ask of you."

……

335 You came at the right time

Mingmei walked through the familiar streets in twists and turns. She was absent-minded several times and almost collided with a car once. When Xiaoai reminded her, she smiled and lied that she didn't sleep well yesterday because she was thinking about redecorating the garden.

She was ashamed of her lack of form. Winette was more concerned about what happened to Mingmei, and how she could have affected the open-minded and positive Mingmei like this. Was she still dating Akai Shuichi? She denied it the moment she had this thought. If Mingmei did that, it would be like betraying her, and Mingmei herself would be trapped in injustice and unable to give Ai a reasonable explanation.

Xiao Ai in the back seat also felt something was wrong. Although her sister did have a strong personality, she no longer had to worry about the organization and identity issues, and she didn't need to overwork.

What happened? This made Xiao Ai hesitate whether to discuss it with Winnet. Perhaps Winnet knew the reason and was involved.

Only when they got to the residence could Xiao Ai carefully look at Mingmei's expression. Mingmei at this time was very similar to when she had concealed her decision from her, the difference was that one was determined and the other was hesitant.

Winnet could sense that Mingmei was still hesitating, so she didn't rush her. Instead, she acted as usual, even more relaxed. She put on some hot water in advance and found some gifts that Sofia had sent some time ago. It was said that these were all foreign goods that she asked someone to bring back. There were Dutch brand chocolates and various Norwegian candies. The variety was so complicated that it gave Winnet a headache. She followed the tradition and made a fruit plate, sprinkling some in each compartment, and perhaps some nuts. Winnet went upstairs, found her equipment, and then told Mingmei and the others that she wanted to maintain them, and then she came to the courtyard with tools such as sandpaper and lubricating oil.

Now, Mingmei and Ai were the only ones left in the room.

Xiao Ai took a piece of chocolate and yawned. After peeling off the candy wrapper, she suddenly stuffed it into Mingmei's mouth, then stared at Mingmei's surprised expression and poked a finger at Mingmei's cheek.

"Look at how you look now, like a worried old woman! Look at your sister, this time, you can't hide it from her anymore, you are keeping it to yourself again. Remember, if it weren't for Winnett, we would never meet again. This is all because we don't know each other well enough and don't know each other's expectations, don't you think? But I do have some problems with my character, but we are sisters, so how about treating me as a silent listener?"

Jiuwu Ling Yi Ba Ling Jiu Another

"Are you listening?"

Mingmei murmured and smiled bitterly: "Sure."

"Are you trying to get away with telling some old jokes?"

Xiao Ai recalled that when she chatted with Mingmei, her sister always came up with some topics to make her laugh. Mingmei shook her head, her eyes slightly lowered, she picked up a piece of gel candy in her hand, rubbed the package and said: "Actually, I met an unexpected person in the hospital."

"Unexpected person?" Xiao Ai expressed her doubts, because what she learned unilaterally from Mingmei was not enough to support her understanding of Mingmei's personal relationships. "Is it a good friend in the past life? Now is indeed not a good time to contact them." Then, she changed her tone, not wanting to refute Mingmei's expectations, and continued in a slightly cunning way, "But Winnet can find a way. She can continue to get along with them by changing her identity. Although, starting over will take a lot of energy..."

Ai tried to smile, raised her face, and comforted Mingmei. However, Mingmei's eyes began to sore, "No, Shiho, I don't want to cause trouble for him. They are all very good people. I always remember that I am a member of the organization, so..."

"Yes, I know."

"But there's nothing I'm not satisfied with... I'm sorry, Shiho."

"It's not your fault, sister. Who did you see?"

"..."

Mingmei was silent for a moment.

"Who is it?"

"Great Lord... No, that was a pseudonym he used to infiltrate the organization. His real name is Akai Shuichi."

Xiao Ai frowned, her emotions were a little heavy, "You met him and talked to him? He was the man who abandoned you, the man who deceived you in order to investigate the organization! Do you think he is sincere to you?"

“I believed it at the time.”

"Yeah, I fully expected you would by now."

"Shiho really understands me... I thought I could do it, too."

"Originally? What did you talk to him about? To be honest, I don't want you to tell him about Winnet. She has always..." Xiao Ai thought for a while and still didn't use a euphemism, "She wants to kill Akai Shuichi, and he probably has the same idea. He and the organization are mortal enemies. Besides, he is a bastard who deceived your feelings and took no responsibility in the end - at least Winnet thinks so! From what I know about her, she will definitely think so! I know the deep and terrifying side hidden in her heart."

"I did not recognize him—"

"why?"

"——He has another woman with him."

The two spoke at the same time, and Xiao Ai was stunned for a while. When she realized what was going on, she pinched her temples and leaned back on the sofa, saying in a suppressed angry tone: "Woman! God! How long has it been? Two months?" She was so angry that she began to talk to herself, and the last thought of making excuses for him was gone, "I guess it's still a foreign woman, with big blonde waves and a perky butt, an American girl! Yes! He is an American, a member of the FBI, and his private life may be a mess..." At this point, she began to consider Mingmei's feelings again, "I mean, maybe it's like this."

Mingmei squeezed the jelly candy in her hand and deformed it into a pea-like shape. "It's short hair." Mingmei did not refute Xiao Ai's inference, but said calmly.

Xiao Ai suddenly lost her confidence, "This can't be true?"

"it is true."

She found a new lover in such a short time? And she believed her sister was dead?

"Maybe - I mean, maybe she's not his new lover, even though he's a disgusting fellow to me."

"I could understand the emotion in her eyes when she looked at him. It was obvious that this was not something that could be cultivated overnight. Even I didn't expect that the emotion that I spent two or three years cultivating would not stand the test. Everything happened too quickly. I suddenly felt like I hadn't caught up with anything. If it weren't for Miss Winnett, I would have lost you, Shiho."

Seeing Mingmei's sad look, Xiaoai hated Akai in her heart. She excused him and was also concerned about Mingmei's feelings, but now it seemed unnecessary. If she wanted to break up, she needed to do it thoroughly. Her sister still had her and Winette, and they would accompany her.

"It doesn't matter - sister, you still have us, so forget about that bad man! It's good enough that you are no longer involved with him. We can continue to live like this. When the storm is over, you can find the right person and find your own love again. This is not just nice talk. Winnet and I will find a way."

"Thank you, Shiho." Mingmei's expression eased a lot. "Yes, I should really forget about him completely. I'm so stupid. I clearly guessed that he was an undercover agent, but I still had unrealistic thoughts... Didn't I fail once in my plan to leave the organization... Well, I won't do stupid things again."

"It's not stupidity, it's just that the person you want to believe is wrong."

Xiao Ai said calmly.

She was much luckier than her sister and chose to believe Winnet.

"maybe."

"After speaking out, do you feel better?"

"Much better."

"That's not enough, we have to find a way to cheer you up. Is there anything you want to do?"

As she spoke, Xiao Ai thought of the list Winnett had mentioned, and a somewhat awkward expression appeared on her face. But if it was for her sister, she was willing to go through fire and water. The things on the list were nothing at all, and at most would affect the research progress. Xiao Ai made up her mind and said, "Okay, put away your depressed face. Let's not think about that man, let him be like this candy."

Ai snatched the candy and threw the deformed can into the trash can.

Mingmei stared at the trash can for two seconds, then turned her gaze to Xiaoai and nodded slowly, "Yes, I should think about what I want to do. The first thing is to improve the layout of the courtyard. Before I came, a lot of flowers were planted here. They died when I first came. Now I want to get some gardening things again... Miss Winnet is obviously very good at this, but she didn't think about preserving them well, which is a pity. To be honest, I really feel a lot more relaxed because I know that everyone is fine." Seeing Xiaoai's unhappy expression, she quickly smiled again, "Who knows, these are gifts from others to Miss Winnet, but she only wants to cherish you."

"Don't bring her in suddenly. We are talking about you, my sister, right?"

"I can't help but think so," Mingmei replied playfully, "I thought my sister was the unfortunate one. Not only is she strictly controlled by the organization, but she also can't enjoy the life of an ordinary person. But the facts have proved that not only ordinary people are happy. There have been many cases in recent days, which have made me realize that my sister has found her happiness - she is so happy that I, as her elder sister, feel envious. I also want a lover like Miss Winnet who is caring, gentle, cute, simple, and powerful! How about Shiho, give me some of her?"

"Of course," Ai agreed readily. She knew her sister was only joking. "But I can't split it in half. But it's totally fine to lend her to you temporarily - you live together now, don't you? If there's anything you need, it's best to discuss it with Winnet. It's just that she sometimes overdoes it - like making a bento to the point of serving it at a banquet. She's smart a lot of the time, but she can also be stupid. With your help, I feel a lot more at ease. Maybe she'll be keen to introduce you to a suitable partner."

Mingmei stared at her and felt that Shiho's attitude was too relaxed. She intertwined her fingers and whispered to Xiao Ai, "Aren't you worried that I will take Miss Winnet away?"

"Ah, is this also a joke?"

"What if it's true?"

"Well... to be honest, if she and I are a good match, I think it's fine. But to be honest, I don't want to give her to anyone else, but if it's because of me that she changes her mind, then I will withdraw. However, she is actually a very insecure person, and she must be with me in this life. If you want to take her away, I'm afraid you will have to work harder."

"Hehe, why do I feel like you are showing off to me!" Mingmei scolded Xiaoai.

Ai didn't care about it. "So, get rid of your boring sadness as soon as possible. Sister, you will meet the right person sooner or later, just like the scientists and cadres of the evil organization?"

Mingmei had to admit that Winnet was indeed the best candidate for her sister-in-law. She had her doubts at first, but after spending time with her recently, she also fell in love with her. However, it cannot be said that it was the same kind of love. Mingmei felt that staying here was a comfortable atmosphere, and there was no sense of urgency to hide her identity. She was glad that her sister had Winnet's protection. She thought that she should make it clear to Winnet about Akai, not only to indicate the end of this relationship, but she also hoped that Winnet would listen to her plea - not to hunt down Akai Shuichi.

If the two of them were really facing a life-and-death battle, she would indeed still hope that Miss Winnet would win safely.

Mingmei's expression changed after hearing Xiao Ai's analogy, revealing a look of reproach, "Don't use that analogy. I would rather see a gentle pastor and a genius scientist."

"Oh, that's good, maybe it will be like that in the future," Xiao Ai said, "The world changes very quickly, and we can't be the same as before. In the past, I thought there was no future, but in fact the future is changing all the time. I won't die because of my negative thoughts. Now she is by my side, and I can move like an ordinary person. I am already very satisfied. No one can predict the future - but we can't let time slip away now, not at all."

Ai felt a little excited about what she said. Although the facts and changes were indeed like this, this process was accompanied by mixed feelings. Perhaps it was because of Winnet's existence that she was more easily emotional and did not have time to restrain herself in front of her sister. However, Mingmei nodded in agreement, peeled a new, undeformed candy, put it in her mouth, and said, "It's so sweet."

Xiao Ai also took a piece and said, "It's really sweet."

At this time, Winnet also came back from outside. She had deliberately slowed down the speed of maintenance, but she didn't know how the two people were talking, so her movements seemed a little cautious. As soon as she came in, she saw the two people eating these candies and couldn't help but remind them: "If you eat like this, you will gain weight."

Then she saw the two of them smiling at each other.

Someone threw a candy to her.

Miss Winnett looked confused, "Uh, am I here at the wrong time?"

……

336 Want some?

The two just answered Winnet's doubts with a smile. The latter went upstairs carefully, thinking that the two of them might have discussed how to play a trick on her again.

She put Mingmei's personal affairs behind her and said, "Well, it looks like it's been resolved. As expected, talking between sisters is more effective."

After returning the items in her hand to their original places, Winnet turned on the computer and confirmed the information of the commission. The client who wanted to find the killer Silver Fox was very impatient. Perhaps because he did not receive feedback from her quickly, he first issued an assassination commission for himself - to seduce Silver Fox. This is a gamble with his life against the killer Silver Fox, and he will definitely look for support. However, people like killers rarely accept commissions with names, unless it is an invitation based on fame, the killer Silver Fox may not necessarily undertake his task. Winnet temporarily lowered the priority of this matter: the identity of the killer Silver Fox is an unknown. The problem now is that the poker card criminal, if he is killed, Xiao Ai will feel more at ease.

She thought to herself, damn, why is she like a police officer? She actually wants to bring the criminal to justice! She stayed for a while, went back downstairs, and ran into Xiao Ai in her pajamas, drying her hair. She was wrapping her wavy hair with a towel, her feet dangling in the air.

"How's the situation?" Winnett looked in the direction of the bathroom and asked, "I saw you were still laughing just now. Maybe your psychological problems have been solved?"

"My sister will tell you herself. She told me so."

Winette lowered her voice and said, "Just give me a little hint, so I can be mentally prepared."

Xiao Ai wanted to say something, but the matter involved a person that Winnet disliked, which was like showing a bug to someone who hated bugs. Although Winnet would not seem too excited if she said it, this was her sister's own request, not hers.
