Ke Xue World: The Confrontation between Black and Red

"This bouquet of cherry blossoms must have a very special meaning."

Conan looked at the beautifully wrapped cherry blossoms in the picture and kept thinking in his mind.

In Neon, most of the bouquets used to commemorate the deceased are made of black and white lilies or white chrysanthemums, and a few use manjushuahua or other flowers.

The cherry blossoms, which symbolize life and hope, have never appeared on occasions of farewell and remembrance of the death of life.

Sakura is the iconic symbol of the Neon Police, and Heitaro Sanada also happens to be a police officer.

Has the black organization changed its gender and begun to imitate the swanky style of Kidd, the thief who sent out warning letters before stealing gems, and thoughtfully sent memorial gifts to the target before killing them?

Conan shook his head violently, getting rid of this unreliable idea from his mind.

Haiyuan Ai carefully looked at the last photo, which was taken this morning. The color-printed photo produced by professional equipment made the bouquet of cherry blossoms with unknown meanings extremely brilliant.

Even after so many days, the cherry blossoms inside still show no sign of withering. Even the fallen cherry blossoms falling on the pillow are as beautiful as paintings, and they are obviously well taken care of.

However, according to the FBI agent's report, Sanada Heitaro never entered the bedroom again after the night he found the bouquet of cherry blossoms on the pillow of his bed, and he specifically told his servants not to enter.

Judging from their tracking results, no third person entered the room during this period.

The half-open window has never been closed to this day.

Then, it is natural that this bouquet of cherry blossoms can maintain its most beautiful blooming posture until now, and it can only be the handiwork of the flower sender.

"Generally inferior culture media on the market cannot achieve this effect."

Hui Yuan Ai made a decisive conclusion.

The flowers appeared strangely, and Heitaro Sanada's condition was even worse. Unfortunately, in order to avoid disturbing the situation, they could not easily touch the flowers for the time being.

Akai Shuichi began to wonder whether the person who sent this bouquet of flowers was Belmod or...

Shohei Co., Ltd. office building,

In the president's office on the top floor, the assistant reported to Heitaro Sanada on the matters that needed to be handled today as usual.

When his eyes inadvertently glanced at Heitaro Sanada's face, he couldn't help but feel confused.

Didn't the president work overtime yesterday and get off work on time? Why do you feel like you haven't slept all night? Is it possible that you stayed up late working at home?

After the report was completed, the corresponding information was placed on the desk, and the assistant left as usual.

Heitaro Sanada looked at the information files on the table that were waiting for him to process, without even the desire to open them.

At the same time, Karasuma Sonobu closed the last piece of information for the day and dialed Amuro Tohru's phone number.

"My lord, what are your instructions?"

Toru Amuro saw the caller number and answered the call quickly.

"How are you recovering from your injuries?"

Karasuma Sonobu asked.

"Without affecting the operation, what can I do for you?"

Toru Amuro understood instantly and asked.

Karasuma Sonobu knew that Toru Amuro was a smart man, so he stopped beating around the bush and casually stated his purpose:

"Let's set off immediately and go to Kanagawa for me to do something."

Kanagawa!

Toru Amuro quickly recalled the news that the FBI had made a few days ago. Heitaro Sanada, Masahiko Sanada, Shuichi Akai and others were all in Kanagawa now.

By asking him to go to Kanagawa at this time, is it because he wants him to save Heitaro Sanada from Belmod?

"Yes."

Toru Amuro didn't ask any further questions and immediately agreed.

After ending the call, Karasuma Sonobu put down his phone and glanced at the withered cherry blossom forest outside the window, which was only full of green leaves. His eyes were distant and calm.

"Li Yuan, have your luggage been packed?"

"The luggage has been packed and the private jet is on standby at the airport. Has the young master decided on the destination?"

Aieko Kurimoto, who had just come in from outside the house, asked after answering Karasuma Sonobu's question.

"Go to Nagano Prefecture."

Karasuma Sonobu seemed to be thinking for a moment, and then reported the name of Nagano.

Twenty minutes later, when Karasuma Sonobu got on the private plane flying to Nagano, Toru Amuro also got on the Shinkansen bound for Kanagawa.

...

Kanagawa Mizama Izakaya,

Moori Kogoro, who was wearing a blue suit, looked at the flyer for the Rice Krispies Mall he took out of his pocket. He felt embarrassed and wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl in. He didn't have the heroic aura of the previous wave of his hand.

He smelled of alcohol and it looked like he had drank a lot.

The waitress at the front desk of the izakaya was smiling, as if she didn't mind, but when Kogoro Mori was digging around in his pockets, desperately trying to find the coupon, he winked at the waiter on the side.

The waiter nodded slightly, silently took out his cell phone and dialed the police number.

After rummaging through all the pockets on his body, not only did he not find any coupons, but he didn't even dig out his wallet and cell phone. Mouri Kogoro had a slight sweat on his forehead, and then he fell to the ground with a drunken sound. .

Immediately afterwards, the police who came after hearing the news were taken directly to the Kanagawa Police Headquarters.

By the time we walked out of the Kanagawa Police Headquarters office building, it was already evening.

Mouri Kogoro, who woke up from his deep drunkenness, looked at Edogawa Kannan, who was looking up and down, but did not dare to look at him. Then he apologized to his senior sister with an embarrassed look on his face:

"Ah..., I originally said that I would visit Senior Sister at home in the past two days, but I didn't expect that it would be such a coincidence."

Minako Sanada smiled and did not continue chatting on this topic. Instead, she looked at the beautiful and generous Maori Ran and praised her a few words:

"This is the baby girl you have been showing off to us. She is indeed outstanding."

"That's right, Xiaolan is the champion of the Kanto Girls' High School Karate Competition."

When it came to his daughter, Mouri Kogoro immediately lost his previous embarrassment and his face was filled with pride.

After a brief chat and an appointment with Mouri Kogoro for a visit the next day, Minako Sanada turned around and went back to work.

After saying goodbye to his senior sister who he had contacted frequently but had not seen in many years, Mouri Kogoro did not hide the anger on his face at all and stared at Conan until his scalp went numb.

Oops, Uncle Maori must have known that it was his prank that caused him to be treated as a meal eater by the store, and then he was taken to the police station by the police.

After all, he had watched him take the flyer from Mihua Shopping Mall before.

However, who would have thought that Uncle Maori would pull off his wallet and his cell phone would be stolen by a thief.

However, if Uncle Maori hadn't been too drunk, how could he have been arrested by the Kanagawa police and taken to the police station.

Conan curled his lips secretly, and then hit his head with a fist full of rage.

By the time the three of them took a taxi back to the hotel, the sky was already dark and the street lights on both sides of the road had already been lit.

Seeing Conan with a big bump on his head, Haiyuan Ai did not hide the smile in his eyes, and then took Mao Lilan to the hotel's restaurant for 12 people to have dinner, leaving Conan with a desperate look on his face and Li Lu who was gearing up. Mouri Kogoro sneered.

Mao Lilan was a little worried, but was calmed down by Hui Yuan Ai's few words.

So, while Mao Lilan and Haibara Ai happily enjoyed a belated dinner, Edogawa-san received a loving education from his father-in-law.

Judging from Edogawa-san's behavior afterwards, this love was very deep.

In a luxurious suite several floors away from Kogoro Mouri's room, Shuichi Akai paid attention to the president's office on the top floor opposite, which was still lit, and said:

"It seems that Heitaro Sanada still plans to stay at the company today."

After reassembling the maintained sniper rifle and putting it in his guitar bag, Yahea was a little confused after running around all afternoon:

"I have observed three suitable sniper spots near Heitaro Sanada's company, and there are no traces of stepping on any of them.

Could it be that Belmode planned to send someone to assassinate him at close range? "

Faced with a situation like Heitaro Sanada's, the most appropriate and convenient way to kill him is to send a sniper, which can be easily done with just one shot.

Yahya had carefully checked and personally confirmed the three sniper points, one of which was no more than four hundred yards away from the office building of Shohei Co., Ltd. in a straight line.

Not only is the location excellent, but it is also convenient for escape. It is the most suitable one among the three sniper spots.

With the strength of the black organization, just sending a sniper can do it.

However, until now, except for a bunch of cherry blossoms with unknown meanings, there has been no movement from the black organization, which made Yahya, who knew the crow's style, feel confused.

Akai Shuichi put away the night vision binoculars in his hand, completely closed the curtains that left a gap for observation, and then walked to the sofa and sat down:

"It's unlikely. It's not the first day that Heitaro Sanada stayed in the company. He could have done it long ago.

Besides, compared to the company, it’s more convenient to do things at Heitaro Sanada’s home. "

Heitaro Sanada has been separated from his wife for more than ten years. The house where he usually lives has only one servant. Compared with a company with many people and cluttered eyes, it is undoubtedly easier to succeed there.

Akai Shuichi was actually very concerned about the appearance of the bouquet of cherry blossoms. He knew the methods of the black organization very well as he had been undercover there for several years.

Every mission operation is carefully planned, and every action has its inevitable significance.

Therefore, in his opinion, the appearance of that bouquet of cherry blossoms must have a meaning that he cannot yet understand. Even the black-clothed organization's standstill these days is crucially related to the bouquet of cherry blossoms.

Cherry blossoms, pay tribute, is this bouquet of cherry blossoms really the work of Belmode?

If not, then whose handiwork could it be?

The code name Whiskey came to Akai Shuichi's mind subconsciously.

But for what purpose would Whiskey give his father a bouquet of cherry blossoms to commemorate the dead soul?

Is it a preview? Or a warning?

"Wait, who does this wallet belong to?"

I was thinking about the special meaning of the bouquet of cherry blossoms that made Heitaro Sanada afraid to go home for several days.

Akai Shuichi suddenly noticed that an old-style, bulging black wallet with some damage on the edges appeared on the coffee table.

He was sure it was not his or Yahea's, but there was always an inexplicable sense of familiarity, as if he had seen it somewhere.

"Picked it up on the Shinkansen."

Yahya raised his head from the pile of pistol parts, glanced at the wallet he had placed casually on the corner of the table, and answered very naturally.

Are you the kind of person who picks up things randomly?

Akai Shuichi expressed disbelief, then reached for the wallet and opened it. After seeing the photo of a family of three inside, he closed it again.

Watching Yahea continue to tinker with the accessories in his hand and meticulously maintain the pistol, Akai Shuichi was silent for a moment, and then said:

"Since I picked them up, I will ask my subordinates to send them to the local police station tomorrow to return them to their original owners."

"Ah."

Afterwards, Akai Shuichi, who had returned to the room and was about to wash up and go to bed, felt that he heard a faint scream.

The next day, it turned from cloudy to light rain.

Open the curtains, the gloomy sky seems like it will rain at any time.

Akai Shuichi looked at the wet ground. It had obviously rained last night.

Conan, who had been severely punished, secretly tiptoed early in the morning, left the double room he shared with Mouri Kogoro, and knocked on the door opposite.

Haiyuan Ai, who was wearing slippers and her hair was a little messy as she slept, took a look at Conan, who was as bloated as two people after not seeing him all night, and suddenly wiped away the remaining sleepiness in his mind.

Noticing the way Haibara looked at him, Conan felt a little embarrassed, and then asked:

"Why are you alone, where is Xiaolan?"

"Sister Xiaolan went to get breakfast."

Before he finished speaking, Mao Lilan walked in with a plate full of breakfast.

The special coupons drawn before did not include daily food delivery service. Therefore, Mao Lilan, who got up early, went to the restaurant on the twelfth floor to get breakfast alone.

Seeing Conan, Mao Lilan immediately invited him to sit down for breakfast, then picked up a comb and tied two cute little pigtails for Hai Yuan Ai, whose hair was already half long.

The apple-pattern hairpin takes the cuteness of this look to another level.

Mao Lilan did not express any opinions on Conan's new look, but the occasional smile from her eyes was enough to explain her mood at the moment.

"With this rain, all the cherry blossoms in Kanagawa will probably fall away."

After breakfast, Mao Lilan looked at the rain falling continuously outside the window, feeling a little regretful.

Conan was stunned for a moment, then walked to her side and comforted:

"It doesn't matter. We can't see the cherry blossoms in Kanagawa. We can go see the cherry blossoms in Hokkaido. The cherry blossoms there will bloom until May. We can take advantage of the Golden Week holiday in May.

Not only does it have beautiful scenery, but it also has delicious food. I heard that the crab pot there is particularly delicious. "

Mao Lilan, who was so elated, looked down at Conan's loving eyes and nodded seriously:

"Okay, it's settled then."

of course.

Conan replied silently in his heart.

He showed a confident smile, then pulled at the wound on his face and grinned.

Sitting on the sofa, Haiyuan Ai silently gnawed on the sandwich in his hand, turning a deaf ear to the touching play being performed next to him.

Then, a phone call broke the love bubble surrounding Conan and Mao Lilan.

"Something happened. Heitaro Sanada just jumped from the top floor of the company."

The three people in the room were shocked, and Conan asked hurriedly:

"How are you doing?"

Shuichi Akai held his phone and was also shocked by the news he just received:

“Fortunately, something blocked him from below, and the person fell into the flower bed and did not die on the spot.

He has now been taken away by an ambulance and sent to the hospital. "

"Have you caught the person who did it?"

"Heitaro Sanada jumped down on his own."

Akai Shuichi's answer caused everyone to fall into deathly silence.

At the same time, Karasuma Sonobu, who wore professional skydiving equipment and jumped from a helicopter that flew a thousand meters high, landed safely on the ground, received two emails.
