Chapter 1047 An Ordinary Day
Chapter 1047 An Ordinary Day
Time passes slowly in the leisure time.
April 28, Wednesday, sunny.
An unremarkable day, at least that's what it showed on the calendar.
Early in the morning, when Hanyu Kusunoki left home, she felt that the girls were hiding something from her, and the air was filled with a subtle atmosphere of "we have a little secret".
Mingmei's eyes flickered a little. Although Xiaoai still had a blank expression on her face, she seemed to be packing her schoolbag a little faster than usual. Even Junhui had a hint of joy on her lips.
However, as an understanding boyfriend.
Hanyu Kusunoki was considerate enough not to point it out, pretending to be unaware of it, and went out to school in a happy mood.
This subtle atmosphere continues in school.
During class.
Even Xiaolan, who has always been a model student, lowered her head from time to time, and like Suzuki Sonoko next to her, she quickly sent messages on her mobile phone under the desk, with an unconcealable smile on the corner of her mouth.
Hanyu Kusunoki pinched his chin, tilted his head back, and looked over the back of his chair at Ooka Momiji in the back row.
The young lady, who was typing rapidly with her head down, seemed to sense something. She silently put away her phone, raised her head, met the inquiring gaze of the young man in front of her, and smiled dignified, elegant, and impeccable: "Husband, what's wrong?"
"nothing."
Hanyu Kusunoki withdrew his gaze, and he was basically certain in his heart that everyone was definitely having problems, and it was something related to him.
A blind guess will either result in a surprise or a shock.
In the afternoon, school is over.
As usual, Hanyu Kusunoki, Momiji, and Sonoko accompanied Xiaolan to the karate club for some training. After the training, the four of them were about to return to the villa together when Hanyu Kusunoki's cell phone rang at the right time.
The caller ID shows Miwako Sato.
"Moshimoshi? Hanyu-san? Well, the boys from the Junior Detective League have encountered another case and are currently taking statements at the Metropolitan Police Department. Haibara-san is also here. I think you might need to pick her up."
"Okay, Officer Sato, I'll be right there."
After hanging up the phone, Hanyu Kusunoki said to the three girls with a hint of apology: "Sorry, something happened to Ai. I have to go to the Metropolitan Police Department to pick her up. You guys go back first."
"It's okay, it's okay! Nan, go ahead!" Yuanzi immediately waved her hand, her tone even containing a hint of urging.
"Xiao Ai is important, it's okay with us."
Xiaolan also expressed her understanding gently.
Ooka Hongye nodded gracefully: "Husband, please do as you wish."
Seeing the three people being unusually "reasonable" and even secretly hoping that he would leave quickly, Hanyu Nan's guess became more certain.
Your acting skills need to be improved, girls.
After Hanyu Kusunoki disappeared around the corner, Xiaolan immediately took out her phone and quickly sent a message to a group chat that didn't include Hanyu Kusunoki:
[The target has been diverted as planned! I repeat, the target has been diverted! All units, please quickly take your positions and begin preparations! Over!]
Almost instantly, neat replies popped up in the group:
【receive! 】
【clear! 】
【Let’s take action! 】
……
Inside the Metropolitan Police Department, Hanyu Kusunoki is already familiar with the place.
This case was just an ordinary attempted street robbery. Fortunately, the Junior Detective Team once again "assisted" the police in solving the case.
When Hanyu Kusunoki arrived, the record-taking work was in progress.
It was mainly Conan and three real elementary school students who were talking in a flurry and describing what happened to Officer Takagi Shigeru, while Haibara Ai sat quietly by the side, playing the role of a calm and precocious mother.
As for Hanyu Kusunoki?
He was "hostage" to the rest area nearby by two lively policewomen, Yumi Miyamoto and Naeko Miike, who rushed over after hearing the news. They did so under the pretext of "not disturbing the children's statement-taking", but in fact they dragged him to chat about all sorts of things, secretly glancing at the time from time to time, as if waiting for something.
After finishing the record, it was already dark.
Genta and Mitsuhiko's families came to pick them up one after another, leaving Ayumi as the only one with no one to pick her up for the time being - Mrs. Yoshida was usually still busy at the Hanyu family's dumpling shop at this time.
Hanyu Kusunoki naturally took on the responsibility, holding the cute Ayumi in one hand and his cold-faced loli Ai in the other, and prepared to take them back to the villa first.
As they walked out of the Metropolitan Police Department gate, a familiar red Mazda stopped precisely in front of them. The window rolled down, revealing the heroic face of Sato Miwako: "Hanyu-san, Haibara-san, Ayumi, get in the car, I'll take you there."
After thanking them, Hanyu Kusunoki took the two little girls into the car. As soon as he opened the door, he found two people sitting in the back seat - they were Yumi Miyamoto and Naeko Miike, who had been chatting with him awkwardly just now.
"Huh? Sister Yumi, Officer Miaozi, you're here too?"
Miyamoto Yumi explained with a smile: "We are going to a party together soon, and since it's on our way, we can just take Miwako's car!"
Miike Miaozi also echoed in a low voice: "Yes, yes, on the way."
Hanyu Kusunoki nodded thoughtfully, and without asking any more questions, he took the two little girls into the car.
……
The car sped along, and Sato Miwako even drove with a bit of the feeling of a racing driver without exceeding the speed limit.
Finally arrived at the villa door before seven o'clock in the evening.
"Officer Sato, Sister Yumi, Officer Naeko, thank you. Would you like to come in and have dinner together?"
Hanyu Kusunoki politely invited after getting off the car.
"No, no! We still have a party!" Yumi Miyamoto waved her hands quickly.
"Yes, yes, the party is important!" Miike Naoko also nodded.
Sato Miwako also smiled and said, "Maybe next time, Hanyu-san, we still have things to do."
However, when Hanyu Kusunoki stopped insisting and took Ayumi and Ai into the yard, the police car did not drive away immediately, but stayed quietly there, as if waiting for something. The three people in the car were also looking curiously towards the villa.
As soon as you enter the yard.
Hanyu Kusunoki felt something unusual.
The villa was very quiet, unusually quiet. One could not hear the usual sounds of anime or variety shows playing on TV, nor could one hear the symphony of pots and pans coming from the kitchen as Mingmei prepared dinner.
However, his keen perception clearly told him that there were many people in the villa!
Many auras that he was very familiar with!
Thinking about all the abnormalities of the past few days - the mysterious expressions of the girls, the little movements in the classroom, the overly "coincidental" trip to the Metropolitan Police Department, and the three female policewomen's poor acting skills...
Hanyu Kusunoki suddenly understood something.
He looked down at the two little girls he was holding one hand each.
Ayumi blinked her big innocent eyes, with a pure expression that said "I don't know anything".
Xiao Ai still had a calm expression that said "keep away from mere mortals", but in the depths of her ice-blue eyes, there was a barely perceptible light flashing, called "plan working", and at the corner of her mouth there seemed to be a very faint, almost invisible smile, as if her plan had succeeded.
