Chapter 15 Death Maid
[New mission: Three days later, Moon Shadow Island]
[Side mission: Save Aso Mi, time limit: three days]
Two tasks popped up at once, and there was a name that I would never forget even if my memory hadn't been strengthened.
——Misaki Aso, the cross-dressing boss, was the only prisoner who committed suicide in front of Conan. His death left Conan with "unforgettable pain in his life" and transformed the young man from a "demon of light" who likes to push prisoners to the end of their rope.
He becomes a more gentle detective who can gradually understand the criminals.
and……
Conan does not agree with the behavior of revenge, but Kitahara Sosuke is not like that. I don’t know if it is the influence of his childhood addiction to chivalry. Even if he is no longer the child he was, what he yearns for in his heart is still the kind of happy revenge and wild life.
Refreshing and neat.
Zhao Keman Hu Ying, Wu Gou Shuang Xueming.
The silver saddle shines on the white horse, rustling like a shooting star.
Kill one person in ten steps, and leave no trace in a thousand miles.
Hello.
What's wrong?
But in the Mingko world, this kind of value is unjust. Even Aso realizes himself and wanders on the edge of light and darkness, vaguely hoping that someone can stop him.
If that's the case, then stop him.
Saving a good person is still a happy thing after all.
……………………
Behind Kaminodong were two girls with reserved expressions, walking along the road paved with white stones.
Although the two girls were already trying hard to control their gaze, they still couldn't help but be amazed by what they saw in front of them.
In Tokyo, where land is at a premium, one-family houses are very common, but Japanese-style houses that look like gardens are very rare, with small bridges and flowing water, winding paths leading to secluded areas, strange rocks and pine trees, and a view at every step. There is also a flowering tree in the yard.
The brilliant cherry blossom trees.
"so beautiful……"
One of the red-haired girls couldn't help but admire in a low voice, but she reacted in time and hurriedly covered her mouth, lowering her head and not daring to look further.
The courtyard was very large, and everyone walked for a while before arriving outside the house.
From a distance, I saw a man between a young man and a teenager. He looked very young, but his expression gave people a strange and alienated feeling. He was sitting on the edge about half a meter above the ground.
, leaning against the pillar, eyes lowered, holding a bottle of sake in his hand, as if he had been isolated from the world. His hair was blown by the wind, messily covering his eyes, the curves of his chin and neck looked perfect, and he wore a black martial arts uniform.
His figure became more and more slender.
The two girls subconsciously stopped and did not dare to get closer.
Butler Shenye Dong didn't have such concerns. He walked over directly and said with a bit of disapproval: "Young Master, you are under twenty years old and cannot drink alcohol."
"In my own home, it doesn't matter what happens, right?" Kitahara Sosuke said helplessly: "I am sensible and will not drink alcohol. Who are the two of them?"
Kamino Higashi had no choice but to swallow his words of persuasion and introduced.
"These are the newly recruited maids, Yonehara Sakurako and Asano Kyoko."
Yonehara Sakurako has a baby face, her reddish-brown hair is tied into a bun at the back of her head, and the broken hair hanging down from her forehead makes her face look very small.
Kyoko Asano's half-length brown hair just reached her shoulders, her face was red as if she was still underage, and her big orange eyes were as gentle as water.
The two girls bowed together and imitated Kaminodong and said, "Young Master."
Well, the sound is also very nice.
——It is indeed a fantasy world after it has been realized. Every passerby has such good looks.
Kitahara Sosuke nodded casually, and was just about to give a casual instruction, but his expression suddenly froze.
He looked at the reddish-brown haired girl.
"Your name is Yonehara Sakurako?"
"Yes." The girl replied nervously.
"Please ask..." Kitahara Sosuke paused, thinking about the words: "Have you had any experience as a maid before?"
"I...my mother is a maid for the president of Wakamatsu Kohei's family in Cupido Town. I have been serving the Wakamatsu family since I was a child. I should...should be considered experienced, right?" Sakurako Yonehara answered.
——Police uncle, that’s who he is!
With a weakened version of the Death Aura, every time she appears, she will definitely kill at least one of her masters - the Death Maid!
She actually came to my house to be a maid...what kind of hatred and resentment is there!
Kitahara Sosuke subconsciously wanted to find any excuse to terminate her employment - such as bad feng shui or something, but before he spoke, he saw the girl's nervous and apprehensive look, and there were some tiny scars on her twisted fingers.
And shoes that have worn edges.
"Please ask, why didn't you stay at Wakamatsu's house?"
After a moment's pause, the words that came out of his mouth were changed to this sentence.
"Well... after my mother passed away, President Wakamatsu allowed me to stay at home and subsidized my tuition. But I... I had nothing to repay, so I let the president and his children
There were also some conflicts during the period, so I hoped... I hoped to be able to be self-reliant. Then maybe one day, I would be able to repay President Wakamatsu who was so good to me."
Yonehara Sakurako said a little hesitantly, but the story behind it is not difficult to imagine. As for rewards...
——If you don’t have a chance, give up.
Kithara Aoi thought to himself.
Although I don’t know exactly how long it will take, but based on Ming Ke’s world line, the president should die soon.
He hesitated for a moment, but still didn't say not to hire her. Suddenly he saw Kyoko Asano mumbling something next to her. From that expression, it was easy to guess that she was rehearsing what to say when it was her turn.
——Although I was very nervous when I was preparing, but if I ignored it, I would be even more disappointed, right?
Alas, it’s not easy to favor one over the other.
So Kitahara Sosuke asked the same question to the girl named Kyoko again.
This girl looks very young, and is actually one year older than Kitahara Sosuke. Both of her parents died. In order to support her only younger brother, she started working around after graduating from high school. However, because of her appearance and personality, she always
You will encounter some kind of harassment, so you have to change jobs frequently. Although you have never been a maid, you have been very good at taking care of others since you were a child, and you also need this job very much.
Kithara Sosuke was silent for a while, sighed, and asked them all to stay.
——The Maid of Death is the Maid of Death! Maybe it’s just bad luck!
After all, everyone who can survive in this world has encountered that kind of thing more or less, right?
Moreover, if a bad guy walks around twice in front of Conan, he will either turn into a corpse or become a suspect. She has been tested by the God of Death many times, and her character is absolutely not in question.
Well, it's just plain bad luck.
"Little Lord."
After giving instructions to the two new maids, Kamino Higashi came to Kitahara Sosuke with tea and snacks.
"Oh, Kamino-san!" Kitahara Sosuke sat up a little and said, "Book me a ferry ticket to Tsukikage Island tomorrow morning."
"Yes." Kamino noted this in his memo, and then asked, "Are you going on a trip?"
"That's right."
The mission on Moon Shadow Island was not easy either. Kithara Sosuke felt that he had to think carefully about how to complete it. Moreover, he did not feel that he could discuss this kind of thing with Kamino Higashi. No matter how much the investigation data showed that this person cared about him,
To the current Kitahara Sosuke, Kamino Azuma is just a stranger who suddenly appeared.
However, as a housekeeper, he is indeed impeccable. In just two days, he put Beiyuan's daily affairs in order, and the house that he had not lived in since he bought it was quickly made comfortable and pleasant.
Kamino Higashi poured a cup of tea for Kitahara Sosuke and asked, "Does the young master know the girl named Sakurako?"
"Huh? No." Kithara Sosuke picked up the teacup, stared at the green tea, and said, "I just heard about it accidentally, don't worry about it."
"Oh, that's good." Shen Yedong said: "I just want to tell the young master that you don't need to feel wronged in front of anyone. If you are dissatisfied with a mere maid, just replace her."
"It's not necessary...but old man, what you said is so domineering!" Kitahara Sosuke raised his eyes and asked, "I wonder what you have been doing all these years?"
"I'm just an ordinary housekeeper." Kanno Higashi said with a smile: "I have been in charge of several households, but I often encounter cases or accidents. The most recent Mr. Okamoto also unfortunately entered the hospital due to a car accident six months ago.
I have been in jail. So I have been unemployed for half a year. Although I still have a little savings, if I hadn’t found the young master... maybe I would be living on the street soon."
"Hey, don't see that I'm soft-hearted towards those two girls, can you just pretend to be pitiful?" Kitahara Sosuke complained with eyes closed: "Only beautiful girls have this kind of privilege."
"Really?" Kaminodong smiled: "But the young master doesn't seem to be the kind of person who would be seduced by women! So it's just a simple soft-hearted thing, right?"
"I want you to take care of it!"
Kitahara Sosuke put down his cup and stood up to practice shooting.
Adding points can indeed greatly improve his skill level, but daily practice is also essential, otherwise he will still miss due to problems such as feel or experience.
After the yard was repaired, Kitahara Sosuke no longer had to go to remote places to practice shooting. The most advanced firearms training room was specially built in the basement of the house. Kitahara Sosuke spent a lot of money to build the weapons that appeared in the original plot.
All holographic simulation instruments have been installed.
"Young Master!" Shen Yedong's voice suddenly came from behind.
He turned around, and the old man looked at his hand with a rather complicated expression.
"Are you... still practicing kendo now?"
Kithara Sosuke opened his palms and asked, "Do you think I have practiced before?"
There are calluses on Kitahara Sosuke's hands from holding a pen, calluses from practicing gunplay during this period, and calluses from the original owner who secretly practiced karate, but there are no traces of practicing kendo.
And Kamino Higashi... used to be the original owner's kendo teacher. When the original owner was very young, he taught the child to practice with a small wooden sword, and when he left, he had already practiced well. But after that incident... the original owner
His father Shigeru Kitahara erased all traces left by Kamino Higashi and no longer allowed him to practice kendo. So as time went by, even the basics of kendo were forgotten.
Kaminodong's expression dropped visibly to the naked eye.
"As expected...is that so?" The old man smiled bitterly and said, "What a pity...The young master is actually very talented in the way of the sword..."
"In modern society, guns are the mainstream. Swords and other things are of little use except for competing for supremacy in the arena." Kitahara Sosuke said.
"You are right." Shenye Dong said sadly.
Kitahara Sosuke glanced at him and said, "But it's not a burden to me because of my many skills. If I have time, it doesn't hurt to learn kendo again. Has Kamino-san given up on kendo in these years?"
Kaminodong's eyes lit up, and his face suddenly became radiant.
"Practice every day and never slack off!" He said resoundingly: "I, Shenye Dong, will definitely pass on all I have learned to you!"
"It's strange to be so enthusiastic all of a sudden." Kitahara Sosuke emphasized before leaving: "Don't forget to book a boat ticket!"
