Chapter 214?
The police are chasing the dummy in a hurry.
From the perspective of the rooftop, you can see the tail of the helicopter directly following the Phantom Thief Kidd dummy as it leaves, and the flashing police cars on the ground spreading in the direction of the dummy's departure.
On the rooftop, the uniform of the police officer was swaying in the wind.
Baishui calmly said, "I will not slander you."
It will be defined directly.
He said patiently: "No need, you don't need to strengthen my sense of participation."
Baishui doesn't really want this sense of participation.
"Everyone has different pursuits. I can help you find out the truth about your parents and deal with the enemies of the black organization, but..."
However, his own desire to investigate the truth and deal with enemies is not very strong. He does have a desire to pursue "non-existent memories", but not much.
Kuroba Kaito: "Even if it's the truth that my parents 'died' under a flock of woodpeckers?"
Not ‘Mom and Dad’.
Baishui didn't bother to correct him again. He paused and replied, "Even if it's about my parents."
The damned people have already died completely, and it is very boring to rummage through the ruins and try to piece together every little detail.
If there is someone who is deeply hidden behind the scenes and he fails to find and take revenge, then he deserves to die.
...and indeed died.
Bai Shui: "I'm not a detective."
He doesn't mind his own business and has no sense of responsibility to find out the real culprit of every murder case and the tragedy behind the murder. He is a gray character who knows that the victim will die long before the victim dies, and still looks on indifferently, or even actively watches death.
.
In a sense, it is even more unacceptable than the murderer.
"But," Kuroba Kaito said, "you are a 'detective'."
"When I was little."
"I haven't recovered my memory. I only know a few short fragments of dreams, but I can also see your character through the fragments."
He has a contradictory personality. He looks cold, but he is actually very talkative. He is wary of others and helps others time and time again. He also clearly knows what he is doing and will hide some situations to avoid worries from his companions.
They also ‘solved crimes together’, ‘helped find lost children’, ‘helped find cats’, and ‘let tourists leave dangerous areas’.
"That was a long time ago," Bai Shui replied carefully, "because I used to be nosy, I am not interested in being nosy now."
Moreover, he paused again, "No one will thank you for 'meddling', they will only blame you for not speaking more clearly."
Under the premise of knowing that the murderer is a murderer, knowing that the tourist is about to die, and wanting to help the victim, there will be two branches:
①, tell the tourist the truth and let him take the initiative to escape from the bottom of his heart.
②, without telling the tourist the truth and guiding him to leave before being killed.
"In the first case," Bai Shui said, "their reaction will be excessive. Even if they escape, it will only be a temporary escape, and the murderer will catch up."
Then GG.
He will also betray the whistleblower without hesitation.
"In the second case," Baishui continued, "after the murderer's face is exposed, their first reaction will not be gratitude, but fear, complaint, and resentment."
I resented him for not telling me more clearly, which made me almost die.
'let'.
"It's just a case of success."
The victim's failure to escape was even more embarrassing.
"This is very normal human behavior. I understand it very well," Bai Shui said in a gentle tone. "It is also human nature. When the police find a child who has witnessed his parents die in a bloody manner but still remains calm, they will instinctively
alienated, rejected, disliked."
He repeated again, "This is normal."
After a pause, he explained, "So when I first communicated with you, I didn't fully tell you about my past."
"If I told the whole story about my past at the beginning, wouldn't you think I was a pervert?"
This question is a bit sharp.
Kuroba Kaito: "..."
Kuroba Kaito recounted Shirasui's experience, and then tried to imagine how Shiraizu would react completely when he greeted him through written communication for the first time: he would jump up and down, and be alert.
At the highest level, I will treat white water with the most cautious and tight attitude.
He again: "..."
"This is normal," Bai Shui reassured. "Human beings have an instinctive desire to protect themselves."
"But children don't understand."
No matter how smart he is, a child is just a child. He doesn't understand why the person he saved looks at him fiercely, and he doesn't understand why he tries so hard to help but sees the subtle glances from the corners of the police officers' eyes and eyebrows.
After countless days of not understanding, when I finally understood, it was already too late.
"Our growth experiences are different, and our outlook on life is slightly different," Baishui said sincerely. "You don't have to try to help me with your own thinking."
He complained slightly, "I am not a new transfer student who has just transferred to another school and needs help. Nor am I a depressed person who has no desire to live and may commit suicide at any time. I urgently need psychological counseling and arouse the desire to live."
So there is no need to keep trying to increase his involvement.
Especially the high blood pressure part.
"It's not because of sympathy or pity," Kuroba Kaito sniffed the clues and immediately clarified, "I am not qualified to sympathize or pity you."
He said: "You don't care much about your own affairs. I've known for a long time that I care."
"After you and Kudo Yusaku finished talking, I have been paying attention to his wording, 'You seem to be making a very difficult decision.'"
"I don't know what the choice is, but amnesia is probably the price of the choice, or a prerequisite for choosing a certain choice?"
"And amnesia,"
Kuroba Kaito said word by word, "It's 'you'."
So far, all the amnesia fragments they can detect are related to Baishui, as if an eraser has wiped away Baishui accurately, erasing all traces of his existence.
This is not normal.
"You said from the beginning, 'Just treat you as if you don't exist,' but that seems like something you are capable of," Kuroba Kaito complained, adding, "I'm a little worried that this is the 'choice'
matters."
"Koizumi Anko once said that the integration of two worlds requires something in common, which is 'Kuroba Kaito'. The integration of the world is gradual."
"The previous witch interrupted the integration of the world, but you are still here."
Bai Shui's brows moved and wrinkled.
Kuroba Kaito: "Will the 'choice' be for you to leave this world?"
He added, "The possibility is neither high nor low, but I am worried."
"One more thing, when the Heihe Forest fire broke out, it must have been the stage when my parents died in the snow forest, right? At that time, we were less than ten years old."
"Afterwards, I fell into a coma, and my father took us to the forest. The witch took away the unattended mirror."
"You have always been with me. In this world, you have your parents, Kudo Yusaku, and Belmod as witnesses."
"However, your memory did not end abruptly in that snow forest, but continued to spread until 'death'."
Kuroba Kaito said: "You exist in two worlds, how is this possible?"
After voicing this question that he had been thinking about silently for a long time, he became even more sure, "The choice you face may be whether to go back or stay."
Baishui is still here, so of course he chose to stay.
But the fact that 'the lost memory is the memory related to Shiraizu', no matter how you look at it, means that 'Shiraizu chose to leave, the two worlds were completely separated, and the memories disappeared together with them', Kuroba Kaito was still extra vigilant.
He confidently said, "Just in case, you have to leave more of your mark on this world."
"If you choose to leave, my mother will definitely be very sad."
…Thank you, but ‘Mom’ is really just your ‘Mom’.
Bai Shui continued to frown. Just as he was about to speak, he heard a burst of wild laughter, "Hahahaha!"
He subconsciously pulled Kuroba Kaito, "?"
I suddenly realized that laughter was not coming from my head, but coming from my ears.
The rooftop was shrouded in pitch-black night, and at some point, the ground lit up with crystal reflections.
