Jiang Xia was thinking about which window she should sneak into the doctor's house through at night. Before she could think about it, the doorbell suddenly rang.
He opened the door and found that the person who came was actually Hui Yuan Ai. The little girl stood at the door of his house with a sad and sorrowful expression. She almost had the four characters "I come to die" written on her forehead.
Hui Yuan Ai raised his head, glanced at Jiang Xia, and whispered, "Don't tell them I'm here."
Jiang Xia was startled, and quickly figured out the subtext and background of Haiyuan's sad words - she seemed to be like Conan in the KTV, and firmly believed that Jiang Xia recognized her identity.
Jiang Xia: "..."
...Why do one or two of them like to take off their vests and show them to him?
Doesn't he look like the kind of person who likes to pick off horses?
Jiang Xia looked at the decisive Hui Yuan Ai and sighed with a slight disappointment - the fun he had just picked up was gone.
But forget it, Haiyuan Ai will expose it sooner or later anyway, and now it's just a few hours ahead of schedule.
Jiang Xia tapped Haiyuan Ai's head listlessly again and replied to what she just said: "Yes. But in exchange, you have to pretend that you don't know me - today is our first meeting."
With a few words, Jiang Xia finalized this py deal without any twists and turns, and turned back to the house, intending to continue rolling in ghost mints.
Hui Yuan Ai looked at his back and was shocked: "..."
Wait a minute...something's wrong!
——Jiang Xia obviously hates her so much, and he has always attached great importance to the mission of the organization. "Shirley's defection" is by no means an insignificant matter to the organization. Jiang Xia cannot let her go, both publicly and privately.
.
So originally, Haibara Ai's planned line was "You can kill me for revenge, but I hope this matter can end here. Please don't take my body back to the organization and don't kill the grandpa next door." But why?
…
On the way here, Haiyuan Ai was mentally prepared to die on the streets. So now, she was much more courageous than usual.
She opened the door and chased Jiang Xia's house, hugged his arm, and wanted to ask clearly: "You..."
"I have never received the task of taking you back." The moment Jiang Xia opened her mouth, she nipped Haiyuan Ai's series of questions in the bud. When she entered the door just now, Jiang Xia vaguely saw the doctor carrying something.
, walked over to him. If Haihara Ai's lines were too long, he would risk falling off the old man's horse.
He then said concisely: "Work is work, and life is life. Before I got a job, I just wanted to spend every day peacefully like an ordinary high school student. So, if possible, I hope you won't always be in front of me.
Bring up the organization."
Hui Yuan Ai looked at him and was stunned.
That terrifying, cold-blooded organization that seemed to be everywhere, in Jiang Xia's eyes... turned out to be just a job??
Before... Before Jiang Xia disliked her so much, was it not because he was resenting his parents, but because in Jiang Xia's eyes, he was just a collateral leader who might cause him to work overtime at any time?
If you think about it this way, it is true that there were several times when she lost things and Jiang Xia helped to find them...
Thinking of this, Haiyuan Ai suddenly felt a little guilty and a little distressed - Jiang Xia definitely didn't think so openly from the beginning. He could easily divide the organization into "work", which is actually more like "good mentality" than "work".
It is the sudden calm after experiencing strong winds and waves.
Come to think of it, a year ago, Jiang Xia was still on the verge of death...
Hui Yuan Ai's hand holding Jiang Xia's arm unconsciously loosened and moved down to touch his left wrist.
Through the thin wristband, you can feel the raised scars on it. Haiyuan Ai's eyes were complicated, and his fingers paused on it for a while, feeling that he should ask sadly at this time, "Does it hurt?"
However, when she looked up, she saw Jiang Xia silently staring at her with a condemning look, "I treat you as a partner and you actually molested me."
Haibara Ai:"……"
She quickly retracted her hand: "That's not what I meant!"
Jiang Xia nodded perfunctorily: "Yeah, I understand, you were just slippery and accidentally touched me." He had exactly the same tone as an honest person when dealing with the gangsters on the bus who refused to admit their guilt.
A vein popped out of Huiyuan Ai's forehead: "I...!"
"Xiao Ai! You didn't bring your lunch box." Dr. A Li's voice came from the door.
Hui Yuan Ai froze. She remembered the agreement she had just made to help Jiang Xia cover her waistcoat. She took a deep breath and swallowed back all the words she wanted to refute, almost holding back internal injuries.
In her impression, Jiang Xia was clearly a work machine with strict rules, devoted to the organization, no desire to survive, no emotions, and an occasional self-destructive tendency.
Why now...
Hui Yuan Ai's mood was extremely complicated.
But after thinking about it, I feel that this actually has its advantages - if Jiang Xia really is the character she imagined, she must have been lying on the tissue dissection table by now...
When Dr. A Li walked into the room, he always felt that the atmosphere was a bit strange.
He touched the back of his head without knowing what was going on. He first put the heavy lunch box next to Jiang Xia, and then looked at Haiyuan Ai in confusion: "What happened to you just now? You rushed out of the door suddenly..."
"It's nothing." Hui Yuan Ai turned away and instantly returned to his usual cold and calm expression.
She straightened her hair that had been messed up just now, and said forcefully: "I just didn't expect that there are people who can accept the idea of 'adults becoming smaller' without any hindrance... I used to think that few people could accept my research theory.
I accepted it, so I was a little excited for a while.”
"That's it." Dr. Ali miraculously connected to the brain circuit - he understands! It's probably the feeling of meeting a soulmate. As a strange inventor, he does understand very well, but...
Dr. A Li pointed at himself and said softly, "Well, don't I accept your theory too..."
"You are different. You are older, and you are more accepting of this kind of strange power and chaos than others." Haiyuan Ai's eyes passed by the doctor and landed on Jiang Xia. She found that Jiang Xia had been attracted by the fragrance of rice.
, opened the lunch box.
Her eyes slowed down a little, then she turned and walked towards the door, taking the doctor away with her while instilling false ideas: "Young people are the representatives of the trend of the new era. If he can accept this, it shows that my research direction is very promising... By the way, you
You haven’t told Kudo Shinichi about me yet.”
The doctor was completely led by Hui Yuan Ai. When he heard the little girl say this, he immediately forgot about the topic and replied: "Not yet."
Dr. Ali originally wanted to tell Conan, but Haibara woke up faster than he thought. The doctor was addicted to taking care of this newly found little girl, and experienced the joy of being an old father for a while.
Forgot about it.
"That's just right." Haiyuan Ai walked on the street, turned around and showed an unknown smile to the doctor, "Don't tell him yet, I want to contact him myself, is that okay?"
