Chapter 319 Guardian Knight
Returning the Buddha statue to Sanno Temple brought an end to this incident. After coming out of the temple, Chika Suzu said goodbye to everyone.
Watching the woman in pink kimono go away, Toyama Kazuha secretly glanced at Hattori Heiji, but saw that he did not look at the girl, but looked sideways at the cherry blossom tree in the temple, not knowing what he was thinking.
"She's leaving, why don't you ask her to stay? Or leave her a phone number or something." Yuanshan and Yekou said indifferently.
Hattori Heiji blinked: "Why should I keep her?"
Yuanshan Heye snorted softly and said sourly: "She should be your first love, right?"
Hattori Heiji did not deny: "Well, it seems so."
"Then she's leaving, why are you indifferent? Don't you recognize her?" Toyama and Ye were a little confused about Hattori Heiji's reaction.
"Hey! A child's love is like a summer thunderstorm. It's over in the past! That was eight years ago. You don't think I still like her, do you?" Hattori Heiji said speechlessly.
: "And she didn't even see me at that time, and she didn't know who I was, so why would she recognize me?"
But in fact, until today, he thought that the person he liked was the little girl from back then. But when he realized that Chika Suzu might be that person, Hattori Heiji found that he didn’t have the heart-pounding feeling at all.
.
Is the little girl playing ball and singing under the cherry blossom tree a dream or reality? He can't tell clearly. Maybe his brain has beautified the past memory, but Hattori Heiji is sure that the person who affects his thoughts now makes him
The person who worries about gains and losses is not Chika Suzu.
In this case, even if Chika Suzu is that little girl, there is no need to mention the past.
But Hattori Heiji was embarrassed to explain these changes in his mood to Toyama Kazuha, so he just pretended to be impatient and dealt with it.
Although his attitude was not considered gentle and considerate, Yuanshan and Ye were still in a cheerful mood instantly, but she still couldn't help but ask: "Since you don't like him anymore, why have you been looking for him for so many years?"
"Because I'm a detective!"
"What does it have to do with detectives?"
"A detective can't leave mysteries unsolved! By the way, I remember there is a Shichimi family nearby that serves delicious udon and barbecue. Shall we go eat together?"
"Okay, okay!" Toyama and Ye looked back happily to greet Mao Lilan and others: "Hurry up, too! Let's go eat udon noodles together!"
Suzuki Sonoko murmured: "I thought they had forgotten us!"
"Isn't this great?" Mao Lilan said with a smile: "Kazuha and Hattori-kun have untied their knots and are the same as before!"
Kithara Sosuke said: "Do you think... Hattori-kun really knows what Kazuha is angry about?"
Mao Lilan was speechless.
Also, Hattori Heiji may not know the reason for Toyama and Ha's emotional changes from beginning to end.
Suzuki Sonoko said deeply: "That guy probably... doesn't even know Kazuha is angry, right?"
Conan nodded silently.
"But Miss Qianhe Ling is really beautiful! The clothes are also very nice." Mao Lilan added: "And the children's song she sang, well..." She recalled it, and continued intermittently based on her vague memory.
He hummed softly: "Maruzhu Yi Erobashi Oike... what's behind it?"
Toyama Kazuha in front heard it, and laughed from behind: "My relatives in Kyoto also taught me to sing this song when I was a child - Maruzhu Yi Niobashi Oike, Bride Hexagonal Necklace, Four Silk Buddha..."
Hattori Heiji felt something was wrong and corrected him: "Idiot, it's not a 'bride', it's a 'sister'!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he was suddenly stunned.
When he was a child, what he heard the girl singing was not the sisters [a with the bride !
But he knew that [a ne san] was the right one!! Because this sentence in the lyrics corresponds to the sisters Koji and Sanjo in Kyoto, so the correct lyrics are 'sisters', and this is how all the children in Kyoto sing.
And the only one who can sing 'Bride' is...
His eyes slowly fell on Yuan Shan and Ye, and his eyes seemed to contain a thousand words.
The girl was still arguing: "This is what I learned when I was a child! I remember that my relatives also helped me put on very beautiful makeup at that time! It's a pity that you didn't see it..."
The girl kept chattering. Hattori Heiji looked at her and seemed to see the girl who was as delicate as a doll under the cherry blossom tree.
It turns out to be you...
Sure enough it's you!
When facing Chika Suzu, her calm heart suddenly started beating violently.
…………………………
"Ding dong——"
On the way, Kitahara Sosuke's cell phone suddenly beeped. He opened it, took a look, and smiled at the others: "I won't go to eat. Kamino has something to do with me."
Conan asked: "What happened?"
"It's just a matter of work."
Kitahara Sosuke rubbed Conan's head twice, said goodbye to the others, hailed a taxi, and left.
The taxi driver was a Kyoto native. He started talking as soon as he got in the car: "The accent sounds like you are from Tokyo, right? How does it feel to come to Kyoto? Is it a good place? It is completely different from Tokyo with high-rise buildings! Kyoto
There are thousands of temples, big and small! Especially now that it is the cherry blossom season, the best places to enjoy cherry blossoms are Arashiyama and Kiyomizudera Temple, but Daigoji Temple is also..."
Even if the chatty driver didn't get a response from the passenger, he was still talking happily. Kitahara Sosuke opened his phone and looked at the email he had received before again——
A photo: A silver-haired woman covered in blood fell to the ground, her eyes closed, not knowing whether she was alive or dead.
[Young Master, I got a bottle of wine, and there will be new wine later. Are you looking forward to it? 】
With this tone, one could tell at a glance that it was from Yoshinaga Junpei.
Curacao was captured alive, which is good news, but [new wine]... what does it mean? Are there anyone else in the organization in Kyoto?
The taxi sped through the streets at night, and soon stopped outside a building. Kitahara Sosuke first looked around and saw no one suspected of being a black organization, then he paid and got out of the car, and walked in
house.
Junpei Yoshinaga was sitting cross-legged on the carpet playing games. When he heard the door open, he immediately raised his head and smiled: "Young master, you are here!"
For a moment, Kitahara Sosuke felt like he had seen Visa, and almost couldn't help but reach out and touch his head.
"Yeah." Kithara Sosuke responded, closed the door and asked, "Where is that person?"
"Upstairs!"
Yoshinaga Junpei said, stood up and led the way.
Walking along the narrow stairs to the second floor, Matsuzaki Ginji was guarding the door of a bedroom. After seeing Kitahara Sosuke, he nodded and stepped aside to get out of the way.
Curaçao was lying on the bed, her hands and feet were shackled, her wounds had been bandaged, and she had changed into a green hospital gown. She was slender, pale, and looked very weak.
But Kamino Higashi was not seen in the room.
"Where is Kamino?" Kitahara Sosuke asked.
"Kamino-san went to inquire about the news. Because..." Yoshinaga Junpei began to explain.
……………………
Curacao had dialed the phone before he lost consciousness, and the call was connected immediately.
"Curaçao? Your contact time was three minutes late."
A hoarse voice came from inside, and everyone was stunned for a moment.
Then Yoshinaga Junpei reacted, he picked up the phone, blinked at the others, held his throat and said in a weirder voice: "Hi... long time no see, my... old friend!"
There was silence on the phone for a while, and it took a while before someone spoke: "Who are you?"
"Hehehehe..." Yoshinaga Junpei laughed sinisterly, and then said in a mysterious way: "I am your companion on the road to eternal life."
He just said this because he didn't want to draw the suspicion of the black organization to Beihara or the 'Shadow Cat', so he said such a specious statement. Unexpectedly, as soon as he finished speaking, the other party seemed to have guessed something, and sneered: "
What? You can’t deal with the thief in white, so he’s coming to take advantage of us?"
——The thief in white?
Yoshinaga Junpei quickly thought of the magician under the moon.
Although he didn't know why, it was obviously more beneficial to him if the other party recognized the wrong person, so Yoshinaga Junpei did not admit or deny it, but continued to say in that weird voice: "Don't worry about this beautiful kitten of yours, I
I just need to ask her a little question, and after I finish asking, she will naturally come back to you."
Junpei Yoshinaga was worried about what kind of tracking program would be used there, so he hung up the phone without waiting for the other party to respond.
Then several people took Curacao to quickly move the location, and found a local black doctor from Kyoto who often cooperated with the Yakuza organization in the past and had a strict reputation. After giving Curacao a simple treatment, he moved again to the current place.
Kamino Higashi believes that the black organization cannot let this woman be caught. They will either silence her or rescue her. In short, they will definitely send someone over in a short time. If they can find the other party in advance, they may be able to ambush her again.
But this idea seems somewhat fanciful to Yoshinaga Junpei - they don't know how many people the black organization will send, and they don't know who they will send. They don't know their appearance, gender, name, identity, etc. In this situation
How is it possible to find out the whereabouts of the other party in advance?
But Sosuke Kitahara instantly guessed what Kamino Higashi was thinking - there might be only one Yuuki in the world who can do this.
Kamino Higashi went to contact Kitahara Yuki!
Because Yuuki's true identity is an absolute secret, he avoided Yoshinaga Junpei and others.
"By the way, this woman's name seems to be Curacao." Yoshinaga Junpei continued: "All the weapons on her body have been removed, and it is impossible to commit suicide. In addition, this guy lost his contact lenses during the fight. It turns out that
Her eyes are different colors, isn't it strange?"
"Um."
Kitahara Sosuke responded casually and dialed the number.
"Young Master?" came Shenyedong's voice.
