Chapter 218 Final Reunion

Chapter 219: Final Reunion

(The following is restored to Mao Lixun's first-person perspective.)
When Sister Shizuka sent me to school, before I even entered the campus, I heard the bell for the last class of the day, which meant that Shiho should have arrived a long time ago. I greeted the guard at the school gate and then walked towards the classroom. When I arrived at the classroom door, I opened it.

Whoops!

In an instant, all eyes were directed towards me, and I immediately glanced towards the classroom, only to see a girl with brown hair wearing a high-necked sleeveless T-shirt with her back to me. When she turned around and looked at me, my tense heart relaxed in an instant. It was her, she was here. And it did not change any historical trajectory. She returned to my side as an elementary school student. When our eyes met, I could read the excitement in her eyes. Shiho, it's been more than a month since we last met. I'm really sorry for you.

"Mingya, why are you coming to class just now?" Teacher Kobayashi interrupted my gaze on Shiho.

"Mingya?" Shiho, who was standing next to Conan and had not yet sat down, murmured softly.

"Oh, I was sick a few days ago, so I kept asking for leave." I said to the teacher calmly. "I wanted to take a day off today, but I missed my classmates so much that I rushed here. It shouldn't be too late, right?"

"Really... But luckily, you caught up with the new student." After hearing my situation, Teacher Kobayashi pointed to the blackboard with a bit of helplessness. "This is the name of the new student. Go and say hello to her."

"Hi~~~" I looked up at the blackboard. As expected, the three words "Grayfield Ai" fell into my eyes.

"Hey, is that so?" A smile appeared on my lips. As expected, the three words "Grayfield Ai" looked very familiar.

"Is that so?" Shiho, who was in the classroom, also raised her lips. "He likes this name."

I turned back to look at Shiho again, and saw that she was smiling at me with tenderness in her eyes. I walked up to her and said with a heart full of nostalgia. "Hello, my name is Ming Yaxun, thank you for your guidance."

"Guihara Ai, please give me your guidance." The heavenly voice echoed in my ears. It was exactly the same as it was ten years ago. Sure enough, it was her, Shiho.

"Okay, Mingya, go back to your seat." Teacher Kobayashi clapped his hands. "And Huiyuan, have you chosen your seat?"

I looked at where Shiho was now. It was the seat next to Kudo. Maybe she saw that I wasn't here, so she followed the original plot and chose to sit next to Kudo. But it didn't matter, because I knew that when I came here, everything changed.

I walked to my seat first and sat down. After Shiho confirmed my seat, she stepped forward again. She passed Conan's seat and walked to my side, sitting down on my right side. I was on the left and she was on the right. Just like in the organization, the seats of the same table were still so familiar. And so tacit.

"Hey... she sat next to Xun." Genta said to Mitsuhiko. "Why didn't she sit next to me? Really, how could this happen?"

"Well... maybe it's because you look too enthusiastic, Genta, so she is shy." Mitsuhiko thought of a reason.

"But, don't you think that Haibara-san is a completely different person when he sits next to Xiaoxun?" Ayumi seemed to have discovered some new world.

"Hmm? I don't think there's any change. That woman." Yuan Tai said casually. "She's still cold and indifferent."

"No, no. I'm not talking about Haibara-san, I'm talking about Xiaoxun."

"Xun? What's wrong with him?" Mitsuhiko looked in Xun's direction. Just a glance, and suddenly, he suddenly realized that when Xun sat with the new classmate, he seemed to be a completely different person. No, it shouldn't be said that he was different, but the sense of fit. The sense of fit with his new deskmate.

From a distance, the two people who had just met seemed to have been sitting at the same table for a long time, without any sense of disobedience. Moreover, there were no classmates around where Kaoru had been sitting, as if she was isolated, but now, it was as if the two gears were perfectly put together, and it seemed that because of the arrival of Haibara, Kaoru no longer looked lonely.

"Now that you mention it... it seems to be true." Mitsuhiko also nodded.

"Really?" Ayumi said excitedly. "Well, it's decided! We need to bring Haibara-san into our Junior Detective Team!"

"Hey? Ayumi, don't make decisions on your own." Yuanta said dissatisfiedly.

"But it's rare to see Kaoru like that, and don't you think it's a good thing to have new classmates joining us?" Ayumi said happily.

"Well... I agree with what Ayumi said." Seeing Ayumi's expression, Mitsuhiko thought for a moment and said, "Inviting new students to join our detective team is also a good choice."

"Tsk... You think that because Haibara-san is so cute."

"Hey, Yuanta, don't talk nonsense." Mitsuhiko's face suddenly turned red.

"I say... you three! We're still in class! Stop talking!" Teacher Kobayashi, who was standing on the podium, finally lost her temper and started yelling at the three children. On the other side, Conan held his chin, squinted his eyes and watched the children being scolded by the teacher, looking in our direction.

"...Where on earth did Xun go? Why did he come back just now?" After thinking for a moment, Conan rolled his eyes at me and turned to look at the podium. "Forget it, let's ask him in the evening. It's not convenient now that the kids are here."

On the other side, Shiho and I, who were sitting at the back, didn't say a word, but just sorted out our textbooks for class. Shiho took out books one by one from her schoolbag, and I took out books one by one from my necklace.

"Over the years, how many people have you fooled with this magic of taking things out of clothes?" Suddenly, Shiho's gentle voice came into my ears.

"Calm down, Shiho. Your voice is starting to tremble." I didn't look over, but just spoke calmly while packing my things.

"I know, I know." Shiho lowered her head slightly. Her body was trembling slightly. "But, but I..."

despair..

Before I finished speaking, I had already reached out and held her trembling little hand. "The teacher is angry now, and everyone's attention is focused on him. Kudo has also lost interest in us. You can cry now... for about forty seconds."

"Asshole... Asshole!" Shiho pinched my arm hard with her other hand. But she tried to keep her voice down, and tears fell on my hand as she opened and closed her eyes.

"Shiho, I'm sorry." I said distressedly. "I'm sorry for making you feel wronged." I didn't dare to move my hands from beginning to end. I let her vent. "Ten seconds left, dry your tears."

"Hey... Hu..." Shiho forced herself to calm down the grievance in her heart. She quickly wiped away her tears, then half lowered her head. She used her bangs to cover her eyes. After completing this series of actions, I clearly saw that Teacher Kobayashi turned around to continue teaching, and a few children in the class also looked back at Shiho during the moment of relaxation. However, Shiho had already disguised herself, so naturally they would not notice.

"If it weren't for the current situation, I really want to slap you hard." Shiho lowered her head and whispered to me.

"Well, I know. After tonight's matter is resolved, I will let you slap me as much as you want." As I spoke, I kneaded her smooth little hand to comfort her.

"Puchi... Bastard." A light laugh indicated that Shiho had controlled her emotions. "Bastard, why did you leave like that?"

"Because I'm too stupid to think of any other solution." I replied with a wry smile. "Death is the quickest and most effective way to get rid of it."

"So you came up with this crappy plan? And died in front of Vermouth?"

"Ah."

"Why, you've already climbed to the gold medal position. You're already the highest authority in the organization, why would you do this?"

"... Let's talk about this tonight. We still have a lot of things to do next." Having said this, I looked around again and confirmed that the children were not looking at Shiho. Then I turned my head to look at her. "The kids in this class are very curious about the new students, and next, a small group of young detectives will invite you to join. You will be busy."

"The Junior Detective Team?" Shiho subconsciously looked at Kudo in front of her. "Are you and Kudo Shinichi both in this team?"

"Yeah." I nodded. "I will answer all your questions one by one. But first, build a good relationship with those little ghosts. After all, this is where we will live for a long time."

"...I understand." After a brief silence, Shiho nodded. "I've already waited for two months, I don't mind waiting one more day. It just so happens that I also want to use this opportunity to get to know Kudo Shinichi."

"Oh? Do you need my help?" I raised the corners of my mouth.

"Well... I thought you weren't here, but now you appear. So please help me." "Okay, how can I help you?" I smiled.

"First of all, I don't know you."

"Oh, hello, new classmate, can we make friends? The kind between men and women."

"roll.."

————The scent of orchids, the scent of lavender, the scent of home & the wings of angels, the wings of demons, the wings of guardians————

The bell rang soon. During this time, Shiho also explained to me what I needed from her. And I agreed. After school, Shiho left first, because we were strangers at this time. And I was entangled by Conan as soon as the get out of class was over.

"Xun, where have you been? You haven't come back for a week." Conan's words were filled with anger.

"I went to do some work for my boss." I said calmly. "Don't worry, I just helped him pick up a batch of goods. I didn't kill anyone."

"Do you think I will believe you?" Conan looked at me coldly.

"Or do you have any other choice?" I shrugged. "How about I just stab someone to death and make your idea of ​​me killing people come true?"

"You!" Conan was speechless. "Why are you in such a bad mood after coming back? I went to find you and provoke you."

"It's not because of you."

"Me?" Conan was stunned.

"Because I promised you not to kill anyone, I got hurt a lot." I pulled up my sleeves to reveal the bandages underneath. "Because I didn't kill anyone, I was beaten badly. Fortunately, I'm good at martial arts, otherwise I would have died outside."

"What on earth did you do?" Conan frowned as he looked at my injuries.

"I went to get a batch of information about some local forces. Then on the way back, I was blocked and there was a firefight. I just wanted to escape, but who knew they used bombs. So I got injured and fought back. As long as their doctors are conscientious, none of them should die. This is the best I can do. As I said, I took out a stack of papers from my arms. "These are some of the information, and they can all be handled by the police. Leave it to you." My expression did not change at all. I handed the information to Conan. Of course, this information was given to me by Skinny Wolf a long time ago. It was about some remnants of our hostile forces. Because I was born with little strength, I had never paid attention to it. Isn't it just right to use it on Conan? Let him solve these small troubles, and I can also make an excuse for myself.

"Give it to me? Why?"

"I don't want to be in the spotlight. Aren't you familiar with the police? Go ahead and take credit for it."

"But... why are you giving me these?"

"Didn't I tell you this before? My boss is working for the government now. This is also part of my job." I glanced at Conan. "It's just that this is revenge for your constant misconceptions of me. So I'm throwing this trouble to you. Don't worry, they are all forces that the police can mobilize. Their crimes are not punishable by death, and they will probably take a few to ten years of labor reform. Anyway, there is a shortage of labor there, so I'll keep them alive. All the information and evidence are here. The rest have been screened out and are waiting for the government to deal with them directly."

"Uh..." Conan was speechless as he looked at the information in front of him. "Sorry..." Once again, Conan fell into the trap. But it was not an insignificant matter. Anyway, it was true that he did not kill anyone.

"It's okay. There will be many such cases in the future. I just need to spend some time to report to you. Besides, I am also very happy to have you help me solve such troubles time and time again." I shrugged helplessly. I sold you and asked you to help me count the money. This can happen several times.

"Hey hey..." Conan's half-moon eyes.

"Hey, Haibara-san!" Ayumi, Genta and others who caught up with us asked Shiho who was walking in front of us. Uh no, it should be Haibara now. They asked Haibara who was in front of us. "Let's go back together." However, Shiho's answer to her was to just look at her silently, then turn around and continue walking forward.

"What? Why is she putting on airs? Let's just ignore her." Yuan Tai was very dissatisfied.

"But..." Ayumi hesitated and followed slowly.

"Excuse me, where do you live? You just moved here, right?" Mitsuhiko and Shiho walked side by side.

"You're welcome, we can take you home." Ayumi also walked over and said.

"…Rice Flower City, No. 22, 2nd Street." Shiho whispered. "That's where I live now.

"Huh?" Conan was slightly surprised.

"What's wrong?" I asked.

"Ah, no... nothing." Conan shook his head, and then looked thoughtful. This kid doesn't even know the house number next door...

"By the way, Haibara-san, do you want to join our Junior Detective Team?" Mitsuhiko quickly began to recommend this team.

"Young Detective Team?"

"Yes. In order to solve the various cases that everyone asks us to do as detectives, we have to be active day and night." In order to arouse Shiho's interest, Mitsuhiko tried hard to introduce.

"Haibara-san, you should join us too."

"Is Edogawa-san also participating?" Shiho asked.

"Yes, but this guy is just my subordinate at best. Oh, and Xun, Xun, please don't be silent."

"Hmm? Oh." I jumped back from the aftertaste of the original plot. "Well, come on, Haibara-san. Let's do something together."

"..."

"..."

"..."

"Ah, well, this guy Xun speaks a little strangely, so let's just ignore him." Yuantai laughed.

"That's right." Ayumi agreed and changed the subject. "Generally speaking, everyone's letter of entrustment will be thrown into Yuanta's shoe cabinet." This is our entrustment location.

"Yeah, yeah, there are a lot of letters every day." Yuan Tai said as he opened his shoe cabinet, and was instantly slapped in the face at the speed of light. Because there was nothing in it except his shoes. "Well, well, it's usually full, but today seems to be an exception. Ahaha, ahahahaha."

"See if it's lost in the shoe." I said indifferently. Because it involves Shiho's return, I still remember the plot here. But... I don't seem to have much impression of the case. It seems that someone's brother got lost. Then he was found in the printing factory next to the police station. Oh, yes, Conan also mistook the people inside for members of the organization. This is so serious. Poor kids who followed him for a long time.

"Eh? Oh! There really is one! It's a power of attorney!" Yuan Tai said excitedly.

"Eh? Really? The kids are all excited."

"Hmm... Let me see." Yuan Tai opened the letter of authorization. "Oh, this person said he would wait for us in Class A after school."

"What are we waiting for? Let's go over there!" The children ran over quickly. Including Conan, when they heard about the case, the boy's eyes turned digital.

"Haibara-san, come too!" Ayumi called out and then ran out.

"...So you've been playing detective games with these kids for the past month?" After everyone left, Shiho asked me with a slight sigh.

"Well... I can't help it either." I spread my hands. "After all, my every move is being watched by that great detective, so many things are inconvenient." As I said that, I stretched out my hand and kneaded Shiho's buttocks. "Let's go, before you learn all the truth from me, let's enjoy the things that children do... the feelings between children." Without hesitation, I pulled Shiho and ran towards Class A of the first year. The game has just begun.
