When he arrived at the cafe near Mihua Station, it was still some time before noon, so Gao Yuan first chose a seat by the window and sat down.
You can see the entrance and exit of Mihua Station here. According to the agreement with Miyano Akemi, she should have put the message to be delivered to her in the rental safe at the station.
However, Hanada Emi actually asked me to meet here today, so for the sake of safety, naturally I can't take out the contents of the safe now. I have no choice but to see what Hanada Emi wants to do first. As for
There is still a chance to get the items in the safe later.
With this in mind, Gao Yuan ordered a glass of iced Americano and quietly waited for Hanada Emi's arrival.
After waiting for about half an hour, Gao Yuan saw Hanada Emi, a long-haired girl with blond hair, running into the coffee shop in a hurry, trotting towards where Gao Yuan was, and sat down opposite Gao Yuan.
"Sorry, Mr. Akechi."
Feeling a little embarrassed, Hanada Emi lowered her head and said, "I didn't expect you to come so early."
"No, I just arrived."
Gao Yuan smiled and said, "I wonder why Miss Huatian suddenly came to me for something urgent?"
"It's...not an urgent matter."
Hanada Emi said, "It's just that when I saw Mr. Akechi yesterday, I really wanted to ask you about something."
"What's up?"
Gao Yuan asked.
Hearing this, Hanada Emi hesitated to speak. After hesitating for a moment, Hanada Emi slowly said:
"At the beginning, it was Mr. Akechi who found me for Mr. Nishikawa...that is, my biological father, right?"
Gao Yuan nodded.
"Then, you should also know who my mother is."
Hanada Emi said, her tone seemed a little sad.
"Since I can remember, I have no memory of my mother... I don't know who she is and why she was so cruel and left me alone in the world... If Uncle Sae hadn't found me, I might have lived in a state of confusion.
Finish this life..."
As he spoke, tears welled up in the corners of Hanada Emi's eyes, and the true and sincere narration couldn't help but touch Takato's heart - but is this really your sincerity?
"Now, I know who my biological father is. But I still know very little about my mother. So, Mr. Mingzhi, can you tell me what happened to my mother back then? Why did you choose to abandon me! I
really want to know!"
Having said this, Hanada Emi raised her head and looked at Gao Yuan with a very serious expression.
"But...I really don't know this!"
Slightly embarrassed, Gao Yuan waved his hand and said - I didn't expect you to ask me this question. What is your purpose?
Looking at the girl in front of him, Gao Yuan was completely unsure whether what she said to him was true or false, or whether it was true or false.
She is a member of the organization with the codename "Louis". Miyano Akemi has already told herself this, and Miyano Shiho has also specifically told him to be careful about her. Based on these two points alone, Gao Yuan cannot trust the self-proclaimed Hanada in front of him.
Emi's young lady.
However, based on what happened in the first promotion challenge mission, and listening to Shimada Kaoru's narration last night, Gao Yuan thought of a possibility - it felt that this person might really be Mr. Nishikawa's illegitimate daughter, and the organization
In that inheritance incident, a real illegitimate daughter was used to defraud the inheritance!
If this is the case, then the matter is a bit complicated, which is why Gao Yuan is willing to come to see her today.
"Mr. Wise..."
Hanada Emi said excitedly, "You must have a way!"
Saying that, Hanada Emi grabbed Gao Yuan's hand and said as if praying:
"If you can find me, you will definitely be able to find out what happened to my mother back then! Please, Mr. Mingzhi! I don't know who else to ask except you!"
Hanada Emi showed a pitiful expression, staring into the distance, waiting for an answer.
"this……"
As if shy, Gao Yuan looked away, but he had already begun to care in his heart - in this case, let's test it first!
"Actually, I do have a clue about your mother."
Gao Yuan pretended to be helpless and said, "But it's so long ago that I don't know how to investigate."
"It would be great if there are clues!"
Hanada Emi said happily, "As long as there are clues, we can definitely find it! Mr. Akechi, can you tell me what the clue is?"
"I have visited friends who have worked with your mother, and I learned from them that before your mother went abroad, she seemed to have gone to see someone."
Gao Yuan said, "That man's name is Asami Taro, and he was a graduate student at Toto Medical University."
Asami Taro! How could it be Asami Taro!
Hearing this name, Hanada Emi didn't show any clues and continued to maintain the expression on his face, but a lot of doubts arose in his heart - Camus said that Taro Asami joined the organization more than ten years ago and developed for the organization.
A scientific researcher of drugs, but through the laboratory fire that year, Jin Chan escaped from his shell and betrayed the organization. How could he be related to Hanada Kochi, who disappeared more than 20 years ago?
Moreover, Asami Taro had already been found and killed by Kamu and I. Now that he told me that he might know the whereabouts of Hanada Kochi, wouldn’t it be impossible to trace it?
However, it’s no wonder that you know Taro Asami’s name. Is it because of this? It seems that you are just doing it casually and are not specifically investigating our organization.
such a pity.
"Asami Taro?"
Looking confused, Hanada Emi asked, "What is his relationship with my mother?"
"Not sure."
Gao Yuan shook his head and said, "But under the circumstances, your mother would go find him. I think it should be someone she is familiar with. Maybe it is a friend she has known since childhood."
In response, Hanada Emi nodded - unfortunately, you guessed wrong. The places where they were born and lived have nothing to do with each other.
"Then, Mr. Akechi, would you like to visit the place where my mother was born?"
Hanada Emi suggested, "If they are friends who have known each other since childhood, they might be able to find clues by going to the place where my mother lived to investigate."
"That's a good idea."
Gao Yuan agreed.
"Then... Mr. Akechi, would you like to accompany me there?"
Hanada Emi said, "I also want to see the place where my mother lived since she was a child. How about we go there and see it together!"
Saying that, Hanada Emi took out two Shinkansen tickets from her shoulder bag...
On the Shinkansen train——
On the speeding train, Mouri Kogoro was sitting on his seat, shaving with a mirror and an electric shaver. In this regard, Maori Lan, who was sitting opposite him, couldn't help complaining:
"How can I shave on the Shinkansen when I go to a friend's wedding?"
In this regard, Maori Kogoro bluntly said that he couldn't get up today because he discussed with his client too late last night, but Maori Lan ruthlessly exposed his lies - it was obviously because of alcoholism that he fell down and slept in the entrance hall.
It’s on.
Next to Mourilan, Edogawa Conan, the shrunken Kudo Shinichi, was eating a bento at this time, while Mouri Kogoro seemed to be a little impatient after being said by Mourilan, and vented his anger towards Conan:
"Really, why did you bring this kid here? His parents haven't called yet?"
"I, go to the toilet!"
In this regard, Conan said helplessly, stood up and left his seat - really, I don't like to be dependent on others! After all, if those two guys hadn't poured some strange medicine into me, my body became...
Such a small thing...
With this thought in mind, Conan walked to the passageway of the train car and was about to open the door to go to the toilet in the passageway. The door had already been opened. In Conan's eyes, two tall men were facing Conan, walking towards the carriage.
——
Black... man in black!
Looking up, Conan was shocked when he saw the two people in front of him - he was very sure that the two people in black clothes and black hats in front of him were the ones who fed him drugs at Dorobika Amusement Park that day.
people!
One is a tall, silver-haired man, and the other is a burly man wearing sunglasses.
"There's absolutely no mistake, it's them! The look in the eyes of these two men, it's definitely them!"
Conan thought so.
"Get out of the way! You brat!"
The burly man lowered his head and spotted Conan in front of him. He immediately waved his hand and pushed him aside, and then the two of them walked straight to the back of the car.
With a nervous and excited mood, Conan looked back at the backs of the two men, and couldn't help but feel that his wait these days was worth it——
"Wait a minute..."
Just as he was about to shout and chase after him, a big hand suddenly covered Conan's mouth. Then Conan felt himself being grabbed by the collar on the back and lifted up. He could no longer move and could only watch the two men.
A man in black disappeared at the end of the carriage...
