Chapter 29 Meeting at Night

Chapter 29 Meeting at Night

Night, Kudo's house

A black car slowly stopped in the alley.

Then, two men and one woman got out of the car, all three of them wearing black suits.

The last person to come down was a young girl who looked less than 20 years old. She wore a white coat on the outside and a red long-sleeved pullover on the inside. The length was just enough to cover her thighs, revealing a pair of slender, white calves.

The two men walked out of the alley first, looked around, and after confirming that there was no one around, they waved behind them and then walked forward.

The girl in the white coat and another woman in a black suit walked out of the alley and followed the two men into Kudo's house.

When they arrived at the gate, one of the men squatted down and fumbled with the door lock for a while. Soon, with a click, the door lock was easily opened, and the four men entered one after another.

···

Opposite the Kudo residence is the Kamiya residence.

There was no light on in the whole house, as if the people inside had fallen asleep.

At a window on the second floor, the curtains were opened a very small corner. Yuya stood behind the curtains, quietly watching the four people enter the Kudo family's three-story villa.

"Is it... Miyano Shiho?" Yuya's eyes moved slightly, and he couldn't suppress his excitement in his heart.

He has waited too long.

I haven't seen Miyano Shiho since the last time I bumped into her by chance. I'm afraid she has forgotten me?

He did not contact Miyano Akemi for fear of attracting the organization's attention.

However, according to information from the group, a woman named Hirota Masami is already working at a bank, so the 1 billion yen incident will probably not be long.

Yuya tapped his fingers lightly on the windowsill.

He already had a plan to rescue Miyano Akemi, but how to get Miyano Shiho out of the organization was not such an easy task.

In the animation where Haibara Ai first appeared, it was revealed that Miyano Shiho's research institute at the time was in Beika Town, hidden in a pharmaceutical company.

Although Beika Town is not big, there are many pharmaceutical companies there.

As an important research institute of the organization, the confidentiality measures are very strict. In addition, Miyano Shiho stays in there for a long time and does not go out, so it is very difficult for Youya to investigate.

However, just as there are always loopholes in the densest net, after spending a lot of time and manpower, Yuya finally determined the location of the research institute when Miyano Shiho went out to meet her sister.

Now that we have the position, it is not impossible to spend some time to slowly infiltrate it.

···

Inside the Kudo family's villa.

Miyano Shiho went to the second floor alone, searched around, and finally came to Kudo Shinichi's room.

There was a note on the desk in the room, which read: Contact me as soon as you get back! Mao Lilan.

There was a photo underneath the note.

Miyano Shiho lifted up the note and looked at the photo underneath, and found that it was a photo of a boy and a girl. Judging from the background, it seemed to be an amusement park.

The boy in the photo is standing on the right with his arms naturally spread out; the girl is leaning forward slightly and looks very close. Both of them have bright smiles on their faces and make scissors hands at the camera.

"The relationship seemed good, but what a pity..." Miyano Shiho sneered.

The notes and photos were covered with dust, and it looked like they hadn't been touched for a long time; when I touched the table, my gloves were immediately covered with dust as well.

Miyano Shiho rubbed her fingers and squinted her eyes, not knowing what she was thinking.

She turned and looked around the room, her eyes landing on the wardrobe.

I walked over and opened them, and found cardboard boxes neatly arranged one after another. Judging from the labels on them, they should contain clothes that Kudo Shinichi wore from infancy to junior high school period.

I was wearing the clothes from high school not long ago, so I haven’t put them away yet.

Thinking this, Miyano Shiho squatted down and checked the boxes one by one.

There was nothing wrong with the boxes in the front, just the same as what I saw last time. It was not until she touched the innermost ones that Miyano Shiho suddenly found a box that was completely weightless.

Miyano Shiho frowned slightly, opened the box, and found that the things inside were gone. The boxes here were clearly full when she came last time.

I glanced at the label and saw that it said "Shinichi's clothes from elementary school."

Miyano Shiho fell silent, feeling that something had happened that she had not expected.

She put the box away, stood up and stared at the suddenly empty box.

Suddenly, a picture flashed through her mind - during the experiment, several mice that ate APTX4869 did not die, but became smaller.

"Could it be..." Miyano Shiho's eyes slowly widened, "Could this phenomenon also occur in humans?"

APTX4869 has been used on humans, but all the patients died without exception.

The only case is Kudo Shinichi, whose results have not yet been confirmed.

Miyano Shiho originally thought that Kudo Shinichi was also dead, but she didn't expect to make an unexpected discovery in his house today.

"Interesting," Miyano Shiho showed a dangerous smile, with a hint of interest in her cold smile, "This matter will not be reported for the time being. It would be bad if the organization destroyed the rare research material."

Back downstairs, the other three people's investigation results were similar to the last time - this house has not been lived in for a long time.

"Let's go back." Miyano Shiho said casually.

A few people walked out of the gate and headed towards the car, but they didn't expect that a young man would suddenly come towards them, looking at them with a puzzled look.

The three men in black immediately became alert.

Miyano Shiho warned in a low voice: "Don't do anything unnecessary."

Just as the two sides were about to pass each other, Miyano Shiho heard a puzzled "Huh".

"Miss, have I seen you somewhere before?" The young man suddenly stopped and looked at Miyano Shiho with an inquiring look.

Miyano Shiho's heart tightened. Are you blind? Can't you see that we are not normal? Why do you have to come up and talk to us?

Seeing the hand of the person in front of him reaching for his bosom, Miyano Shiho didn't want a stranger to be killed like this, so she turned to look at the boy and said, "You got the wrong person."

The voice was cold, with a hint of indifference that could not be rejected.

"Is that so?" The boy touched his head, looking like he was reminiscing. "But I shouldn't forget a beautiful girl like you."

Miyano Shiho was already cursing in her heart, "Are you a hooligans who can't walk when seeing a pretty girl? Hurry up and leave!"

"Ah! I remember now!" The boy suddenly realized, "The beautiful lady I bumped into on Rice Flower Street last time, was you?"

"It's you?"

Miyano Shiho was stunned. She vaguely remembered that there seemed to be such a person, and that person hugged her for a while as if in a daze.

The reason why she had such an impression was that no one of the opposite sex had ever hugged her except her father! ——Although her father's hug was just an imaginary thing that Shiho Miyano had imagined through her sister's description.

In addition, when she was investigating Kudo Shinichi's information, she also saw reports about this person through related links, which included his photo.

He is also a high school detective, but not as famous as Kudo Shinichi, and there are not many reports about him in the news.

And it was just a coincidence after all. Miyano Shiho forgot about this person soon after, but she didn't expect to meet him again today?

Is Beika Town so small?

The three people in front were about to pull out their guns, but when they heard this, they stopped, as if it was just an ordinary encounter?

It seems like there is something to eat? That’s what the woman in black thought.

"It's me!" Youye laughed happily. It turned out that she still remembered me. "What a coincidence, what are you doing..."

Miyano Shiho was shocked. Could it be that he saw us coming out of Kudo's house?

The three people in front reached their hands into their arms again.

"You still have to work overtime in the field so late at night? Your boss is too exploitative, isn't he? Did you take a taxi or drive? Do you get your taxi fares reimbursed? There are four of you, so you should be driving, right? Do you get your gas fares reimbursed if you drive?"

"It's so late, shall we get you some supper when we get home? No, will you give me overtime pay?"

"Seeing that you work so hard, you must have paid five insurances and one housing fund, right? What standard do you use to pay? It shouldn't be low, right?"

Yuya's series of questions instantly made Miyano Shiho's eyes go blank. She stood there stupidly, and the three men in black in front of her were also a little confused.

What kind of weird question is this? The three men in black were speechless, but they couldn't help but answer Yuya's words in their hearts one by one.

The more they answered, the more uncomfortable they felt. The three of them looked at each other and saw that the other was about to cry.

"That's enough!" Miyano Shiho interrupted Yuya and rubbed her aching temple. "Sorry, it's getting late. I have to go back and report to my boss."

"Oh, oh, oh, I won't keep you here. If you go back late, your salary will be deducted." Youya apologized repeatedly, "Bye then."

Yuya said as he passed by Miyano Shiho.

Miyano Shiho was stunned for a moment, then immediately returned to normal and whispered to the three people in front of him, "Let's go."

The three of them looked at each other and didn't say much.

After returning to the research institute, Miyano Shiho entered her room and went straight into the bathroom.

She took a deep breath, slowly took out her clenched right hand from her pocket, and slowly opened it.

On the palm of his hand, a small ball of paper lay prominently.

···

After a while, the sound of flushing came from the bathroom.

Miyano Shiho shook the water off her hands, picked up a tissue, and walked to the computer while wiping her hands.

He crumpled up the tissue and threw it into the trash can, then clicked the mouse and the computer screen lit up.

He logged into the organization's system and opened the report on the use of APTX4869. After sliding the mouse a few times, Kudo Shinichi's name appeared in the center of the screen.

"Kudo Shinichi..." Miyano Shiho whispered the name several times, minimized the page, opened the webpage, typed in Kudo Shinichi's name, but stopped pressing the Enter key.

After hesitating for a moment, he deleted Kudo Shinichi's name. After thinking for a while, he couldn't remember the man's name, so he tried to enter high school student and detective as keywords.

It was originally thought that the famous detective Kudo Shinichi would appear on the homepage, but to Miyano Shiho's surprise, the popular person on the webpage was another person - Kamiya Yuya.

This face is quite familiar; it is the young man I just met at the door of Kudo's house.

"Detective... When did he become so famous?" Miyano Shiho showed an interested look and clicked on a piece of news to read.

The content of the news is that a high school detective named Yuya Kamiya once again helped the police solve a murder case and caught the murderer on the spot.

The reporter who wrote the news briefly introduced Yuya Kamiya at the end of the article.

As a high school student detective who has recently gained fame, he is humble and peaceful, knowledgeable, and has never failed to solve a case. His grades in school have always been ranked first in the school...

It is said that he has the strength of a third-degree black belt in karate and is very skilled. He once subdued a criminal who intended to fight back during a case, and he is quite trusted by the police...

My father is a professor at the University of Tokyo, and my mother is a highly educated full-time housewife. I have received a good education since I was a child...

According to reliable sources, Kamiya Yuya and Kudo Shinichi were childhood friends...

After reading the news, Shiho Miyano searched for some other information, but the more she read, the wider her mouth opened.

"That's quite impressive..." Miyano Shiho couldn't help but admire.

All the news reports are positive, and there is not a single one about Kurokamiya Yuya. It can be said that it is very impressive for a high school student to achieve such results.

Miyano Shiho's heart skipped a beat when she remembered the note he had slipped to her.

[I will find a chance to see you next time I go out. ]

What made Miyano Shiho's heart beat was not the content of the note, but a special symbol drawn on the lower right corner of the note.

That was the symbol that her sister Miyano Akemi would always draw at the end of the letters she wrote to her.

This detective... knows my sister? Miyano Shiho was a little confused, could it be his new boyfriend?

Or does this person want to obtain intelligence about the organization by contacting me?

But Miyano Shiho's intuition told her that this was not the case. She suddenly remembered that her sister had once mentioned that she wanted to leave the organization.

She originally thought that her sister was just talking casually, but could it be... true?

And already have a plan?
