I, Kudo Shinichi, the rice flower death god

So at the birthday party, she didn't care when Shinichi was the only one who didn't bring out a gift.

"what is this?"

When you open the bag, you will find a pile of tapes inside, which is rare in this era when smart phones have become common.

"You will know after you listen and see."

Shinichi dug out the old-fashioned Walkman he had specially prepared from the cabinet, which could be used to play this kind of tape.

He picked out a tape with the number 1 written on it from the bag and put it into the Walkman. He gently inserted the headphones on the Walkman into the little Loli's ears.

Xiao Ai was half sitting on the bed, holding the Walkman handed over by Shinichi in his hand.

"To my beloved Shiho..."

As the sound from the earphones sounded, there was a line of tears on her face.

2 Another day of peace

　　The next morning, little Loli woke up in Shinichi's arms.

Last night she fell asleep listening to the tape her mother left for her before she died. Even in her dream, there was a line of tears on her face.

But when tears rolled down the corners of his mouth, a bright smile appeared.

I don’t know what I saw in my dream.

Miyano Akemi made breakfast and looked at the two people walking downstairs, unable to hide the smile in her eyes.

"Sister, come here!"

The little Loli didn't look shy at all and waved to her sister.

The two sisters sat on the sofa together, each using an earphone and pressing the play button on their Walkman.

After many years, Miyano Akemi heard her mother's voice again.

"I really miss it..."

Miss Ghost gently hugged her sister, her hair fell "zero-forty", and her eyes were full of softness.

She knew about the existence of these tapes. When the Miyano couple went to the old house to hide the tapes, they took her with them.

She still remembered that her parents at that time no longer had the same smiles as before, and they were very sad all day long, as if they were worried about something.

She didn't understand until the two died in an "accident" shortly afterwards.

Naturally, the only ones that can make parents worry are their two precious daughters.

As an older sister, Miyano Akemi spent several years of wonderful childhood and enjoyed the happiness brought by her parents' affection.

But her sister was different.

Shortly after Xiao Ai was born, Miyano and his wife passed away, leaving no impression at all.

These tapes can be considered as filling some of these gaps.

The two sisters were immersed in the soft voice of their mother, and Shinichi did not disturb them.

After breakfast, he walked out holding an umbrella.

The dark clouds blocked the scorching sun, and the pattering rain brought a bit of coolness, making the temperature less sultry than the previous few days.

Go to the next door and hand over the disk containing the APTX4869 information that was brought back yesterday to Dr. Ali, and ask him to store it in the computer first.

In the next period of time, I'm afraid the little Lolita will be immersed in experiments until she finds the antidote.

After leaving the doctor's house, Shinichi thought for a while, changed direction, and walked towards another street.

Yesterday's birthday party consumed a lot of ingredients, so he planned to go to the supermarket to buy some while he was free now.

There were still many pedestrians and vehicles on the streets soaked by the rain. Occasionally, you could see a few naughty children holding cartoon-shaped umbrellas and jumping deliberately through puddles.

"Are all children today so idle?"

Shinichi looked at the three familiar naughty kids in front of him, whom he had just met yesterday, and couldn't help but complain.

Oh, it's summer vacation now, so that's okay.

Obviously, parents in Sakura Country are relatively lax in disciplining their children, especially during holidays when school is not required.

Basically these children can play outside every day, rain or shine.

Fortunately, this is Mihua, and cases always avoid children.

If it were in other places, it would be like kidnapping.

"Ah! It's Shinichi-nii!"

Ayumi has always been the sharpest-eyed one, and she saw Shinichi coming towards her at a glance.

The three little ones gathered around me happily, raising their little heads as if they were waiting for something.

"I know what you want to ask. Xiao Ai likes the gift you sent me very much. You can rest assured."

Looking at the three little faces full of expectation, Shinichi said with a smile.

"ヽ(??▽?)ノOkay!"

Upon hearing this, the three little ones immediately held their umbrellas high in celebration, not even paying attention to the rain hitting them.

"I know Xiao Ai must like Masked Superman the most!"

"That's weird! She must like the space shuttle model the most!"

"No! What Ai-chan likes most is the brooch given by me!"

After celebrating, the three began to argue about which gift Xiao Ai liked best.

Sure enough, he was still a child!

Shinichi looked at these three naughty children, and the smile on his face became even brighter.

"How about I treat you to something to eat in return?"

Pointing to a dessert shop nearby, he extended an invitation.

"ヽ(??▽?)ノOkay!"

Of course, the three little ones would not refuse such a good thing. Under the leadership of Shinichi, they walked happily to the other side of the road. 0

Although they were a bit naughty, these three naughty kids still knew to obey the traffic rules and waited until the light turned green before they stepped onto the sidewalk.

……

In the dessert shop, Shinichi ordered a sundae for each of the three little guys, and also ordered a cup of coffee for himself.

"It's so delicious! Mitsuhiko, how about we try each other's?"

The sundaes in this shop are all very large. Yuantai chose a chocolate-flavored one, but he was not satisfied with this because he was greedy, so he set his sights on Mitsuhiko who was standing aside.

"No! You just had the spoon in your mouth!"

Mitsuhiko protected the yogurt-flavored sundae in front of him and said in disgust.

"Just try it and it'll be good!"

Yuantai, however, refused to give in. Taking advantage of his size, he tried to force the exchange.

Upon seeing this, Mitsuhiko ran out of his seat holding the cup, and the two began to chase and fight in the store.

Fortunately, because of the rain, there were not many customers in the store, and the few people watching the two naughty children playing with kind eyes.

"Brother Shinichi, try it!"

Ayumi was still the most considerate one, scooping out a large spoonful of her own strawberry sundae, and then stretched it out in front of Shinichi.

Naturally, Shinichi would not refuse such kindness.

Lower your head 3.1, open your mouth, the pink ice cream melts in your mouth, along with the sweet and sour taste of strawberry jam, making people feel happy from the bottom of their hearts.

No wonder people always say that sweets bring happiness to people.

"It's delicious, thank you~"

Shinichi touched Ayumi's little head, and then looked at the other two naughty children who were having fun.

"If you two keep messing around, you won't be able to pack it back later!"

"Yes!"

Mitsuhiko and Genta immediately sat back on their chairs obediently.

"That's right."

Holding his head, Shinichi looked out the window through the smooth glass and fine rain curtains.

It was another peaceful day for Mihua.

Looking at the murder that had just occurred at the phone booth across the street, Shinichi sighed.

Chapter 2 The confused Sato Miwako

　　"Did-doo-did-doo-"

The siren of the police car came from far away and soon arrived on this street.

Shinichi sat in the dessert shop, looking at the crowd gradually gathering outside the window, and sighed helplessly.

This is an ordinary day for Mihua people. You can even see someone shooting a criminal policeman in the street.

You know, even Gin has to think twice before attacking the police, but now an ordinary man in a trench coat can commit murder and then walk away.

"Where do you two want to go?"

Putting down the coffee cup, Shinichi stretched his hands back and grabbed the two naughty children by the collars with great precision.

"Hey hey——"

Genta and Mitsuhiko touched the backs of their heads and laughed twice, looking guilty.

Needless to say, Shinichi knew what these two naughty kids were thinking, and they just wanted to watch the excitement at the phone booth across the street.

"Can't you just stay calm like Ayumi!"
