Chapter 139: Elementary School Students Hiding in the Grass
At night, Heimuren slept deeply. His sleeping posture was very regular, lying flat on the bed, with his hands folded together on his abdomen, and the quilt covering his chest upwards.
On the contrary, Conan's sleeping position is lying on his back. If he hadn't been smaller, he might have been able to climb mountains and occupy the entire bed.
Their room has a double bed.
The same thing happened next door, but after almost being killed at night, Yuanzi tossed and turned and couldn't sleep no matter what.
Xiaolan comforted her and soon she fell asleep. Yuanzi didn't want to wake up her best friend, so she had to reduce the frequency of turning over and keep her eyes wide open until dawn.
Early the next morning, when everyone woke up in high spirits, only Yuanzi was yawning with big dark circles under his eyes.
Xiaolan blamed herself for not accompanying Yuanzi well, but Yuanzi waved her hand and said it was nothing, and she could just catch up on her sleep in the car.
Yes, they still have to go out with Michiowaki Masahiko today.
Michiowaki Masahiko drove up, and Kuroki Jin directly occupied the passenger seat. The three people in the back seat were relatively thin and could sit widely apart. Although Michiowaki Masahiko was a little annoyed by Kuroki Jin's ignorance, he still didn't say anything.
The restaurant is built on a cliff, and Kuroki Jin looks out the window at the sea. It seems that the restaurant's scenery is very good.
Sonoko said she wanted to catch up on her sleep in the car and let them eat. Kuroki Ren was the last to get out of the car, checked around and found nothing unusual before leaving.
The restaurant specializes in seafood, and the portions are so full that the man Kuroki Jin is very full, not to mention Xiaolan and Conan.
After the meal, Kuroki Ren excused himself to go to the bathroom. The moment he walked in, he bumped into the dark-skinned guy who was just about to come out.
Kuroki Jin did not give way, but locked the bathroom door with his backhand, locking him and the dark-skinned boy inside.
"Yesterday when we were eating, you heard that we were coming here today." Kuroki Jin said, with a wary look in his eyes, as if he would take action if the other person answered poorly.
"Yes." The dark-skinned boy admitted without hesitation, but did not say why.
Kuroki Ren glanced at the open window opposite. Outside the window was the parking lot of the restaurant.
"Do you mind if we go out and take a look together?"
Although it is an inquiry, Kuroki Jin’s position leaves no room for rejection.
Fortunately, the dark-skinned guy didn't mind, and the two climbed over the window to the front of the car with great skill.
Suzuki Sonoko was sleeping peacefully in the car. Kuroki Ren was relieved when he saw this, thinking that the guy who broke into and killed yesterday had not yet done anything to Sonoko...
As soon as this thought arose, he saw the handbrake being lowered.
"Hey -" Kuro Muren broke into a cold sweat and pushed the dark-skinned guy next to him to let him see the handbrake.
"Can't open it." The dark-skinned guy shook the car door.
"Miss Sonoko——!" Kuroki Hitoshi slapped the car window, trying to wake up Sonoko who was sleeping inside.
"Look under the wheels." The dark-skinned boy prompted. In front of the rear wheels under Kuro Muren's feet, there was a piece of ice that was about to melt.
"What a perfect alibi." Kuroki Ren sneered, and was about to violently dismantle this dangerous car.
One step ahead of him was the dark-skinned guy, and one step ahead of him was Masahiko Michowaki’s cry:
"Are you there - hello!"
The dark-skinned boy was so lucky that he smashed the rear window with one punch.
When Kuroki came to the front of the car, he was afraid that the ice would be unable to stop the car at any time, so he tried hard to stop the car from moving forward.
Suzuki Sonoko was awakened by the sound. What she saw when she woke up was the dark fist and the dark face of the fist owner, with an anxious look on his face.
The car started to move slowly.
"I told you to stop showing off, brother!" Kuroki Ren, who was at the front of the car, was already trying his best to suck the milk, and his pretty face turned red from holding back.
The dark-skinned boy, who was so calmed by Sonoko's sleeping face, opened the back seat door in a panic, pulled out the still-unconscious person, climbed into the front seat and pulled up the handbrake.
"Huh--" Kuroki Ren slumped at the front of the car, and the next moment he suddenly looked towards the door of the hotel.
Put ice cubes under the wheels and put down the handbrake. Thinking about the small refrigerator placed in the car, it goes without saying whose handiwork this is.
Michowaki Masahiko's expression changed drastically. Just when Kuroki Jin was about to speak as a reminder, he saw him pull out a dagger from his waist and put it against Xiaolan's neck who was closest to him.
"Lan!" Yuanzi's eyes widened, and she couldn't believe what she saw.
"Don't come here!" Masahiko Michowaki, with a fierce look on his face, clamped Mao Lilan's shoulders tightly with one hand, and put the dagger in her throat, fearing that if his hand slipped, he would cut her throat on the spot.
At this time, he completely ignored it. There was a child standing next to him. But even if he didn't ignore it, he would not take this child seriously.
The child stood in the corner, raised the watch, opened the lid, and injected the anesthesia needle.
Mao Lilan felt that the man holding her hostage suddenly relaxed his arm and hit Michowaki in the stomach with an elbow, threw the dagger away with one hand, and then threw Masahiko Michowaki to the ground with a back throw.
Michowaki Masahiko fainted.
The Chiba Prefecture police officer who had been following him emerged from nowhere and temporarily arrested Michowaki, waiting for the arrival of the local police.
After listening to it in a daze, Suzuki Sonoko realized that the person who wanted to kill her yesterday was also Masahiko Michowaki, and just now he had also made a trick to push the car and people off the cliff.
Suzuki Sonoko was so wronged that her eyes were red. After finishing treating the wound on the dark-skinned brother's hand that was scratched by the glass, Kuroki Jin wanted to comfort her, but was overtaken by someone else.
"That kind of man is not worth your tears." The dark-skinned guy looked serious, "A simple and cute girl like you will be liked by many people."
"Really, really?" Suzuki Sonoko looked at him with red eyes, like a little rabbit that couldn't eat carrots.
Laughing at the metaphor in his heart, he pushed up the frames of his glasses and nodded seriously.
"Like me."
Kuroki witnessed the blushing look of the dark-skinned man with his own eyes. He said to Sonoko: "When your good friend was playing a game before, I liked the way you cheered her on in the stands."
"Ah, no wonder I always thought you looked familiar." Mao Lilan then remembered, "You are the captain of Acupo High School, known as the "Kicking Boy"——"
"Kyogoku Shin."
The dark-skinned man said his name.
His hand joints were still covered with tape, and his clothes were ordinary, but in Yuanzi's eyes, his image suddenly became taller.
Kyogoku really seems to be a shy person. After revealing his feelings, he didn't dare to see the person's reaction. Instead, he turned around and thanked Kuroki Jin for bandaging him.
"Nothing." Kuroki Jin smiled.
Kyogoku Makoto and Kuroki Jin passed by each other, and Kuroki Jin clearly heard him say:
"If you can't compete with others, you are welcome to come to me."
