Chapter 770: Feng Ping was murdered and followed him everywhere
Seemingly choked by this strange sarcasm, Karasawa, who had been protesting, fell into a brief silence while Kyogoku Jin was brainstorming.
After a few victorious laughs, Adachi Touyu was not satisfied and took advantage of the victory and said: "Although your friend caused me to lose my job, a strange combination of circumstances allowed me to return to Tokyo. The opportunity is really great, Karasawa-kun, but I am actually hesitant about whether I should return to Tokyo. It would be good to stay peacefully in the countryside of Kyoto, what do you think?”
This sentence seems to sting all of a sudden. When we arrived at Tangze, it was almost visible to the naked eye that the boy walking in front arched his back slightly and curled up a bit.
“I, I didn’t mean that...”
After a few seconds of silence, Karasawa struggled to reply with something, but because his voice was not loud, Kyogoku, who was a few steps away, couldn't hear him clearly.
He took two steps forward and was about to continue listening to the conversation between the two when he saw the man in a black suit turning around and forcefully pulling Tang Ze around the stalls on the street and toward the pedestrians. Another rare branch.
After breaking away from the bustling crowd, he wanted to follow two people again. The difficulty suddenly increased, and it was very likely that he would be noticed by the two people in front. This made Kyogoku stop and hesitate.
The moment he paused, Toru Adachi, who had been holding Karasawa's shoulder, suddenly turned around.
He pulled down his sunglasses, revealing his crow-green eyes, which were accurately locked on Kyogoku Makoto, scanning him up and down with eyes full of consideration, and then rushed towards him. Kyogoku smiled kindly at the stunned Kyogoku.
Staring at Kyogoku Makoto, he was still speaking to Karasawa with a gentle tone, as if he was really using his life experience to instruct the young man.
"Don't be like this. Didn't we get along very well before? As for what I'm going to do back in Tokyo... After going through so many things, don't you understand, Karasawa-kun? You want to live peacefully in the world? , it’s better for people to be less nosy.”
Clearly feeling the implication of his words, Kyogoku frowned, but in the end he stopped following him.
Although I feel that the atmosphere between the two of them is very subtle, I always feel that it may not be safe for the boy named Tangze to be taken away by the other party, but now that he has been discovered, as a stranger, he has no further choice. Tracking position.
Facing Adachi Toru's seemingly gentle gaze, Kyogoku stood there, watching the two disappear around the corner of the street in an almost threatening manner, and couldn't help but clenched his fists.
Damn it, this feeling of knowing that something bad might happen, but being unable to do anything...
Taking a deep breath, he turned around, quickened his pace, and headed towards the hotel.
His pace became faster and faster, faster and faster, and soon he was almost running.
He has no position to get involved in a stranger's grudge, but the other people who came with that boy must have!
————
As soon as he walked around the corner, Matsuda Jinpei's full-throttle hermaphrodite state was instantly released.
His posture suddenly changed from holding Tang Ze walking forward to half leaning on Tang Ze. He adjusted the sunglasses on the bridge of his nose and sighed complainingly: "Oh, I'm exhausted. The lines you designed are really embarrassing.”
Jinpei Matsuda, who has a good understanding of the character but has not yet found the feeling of acting, used the speaking ideas compiled by Kagemitsu Morofushi in the previous dialogue.
To put it simply, Toru Adachi is a nihilist, speaking and doing things with a sense of indifference and no expectations for the future.
But in order to survive in the world, in order to reluctantly integrate into this identity and environment that he does not like, he will maintain basic social rhetoric and deal with the current life with a non-positive attitude.
This is not a typical bad guy, but a typical bad guy, with a different kind of arrogance and madness in his heart. Let alone acting, it took a lot of effort for Matsuda Jinpei to accept this logic.
"The acting looks quite like that." Karasawa commented, "Actually, the sharpness can be reduced a little. If it is Toru Adachi, he usually doesn't speak with sharpness, but is more sharp. Like a useless social beast who has been beaten down by life. However, there is nothing wrong with today's lines. Facing me, the 'victim' who was easily defeated by him, it is not surprising that he would show a bit of arrogance."
< br>Matsuda Jinpei thought about it for a while and answered honestly: "I seem to understand a little bit, but I don't seem to understand."
"Like your father." Karasawa said bluntly.
Jinpei Matsuda felt that Karasawa was a little rude, but he was unwilling to find that he had found an idea instantly: "..."
"Okay, what happened?" Looking at Matsuda Jinpei's choked look, Tang Ze suppressed the smile at the corner of his mouth and asked seriously, "Didn't you say we would meet again in the afternoon? How come it has just passed? He came to me in a hurry at noon."
And it was Matsuda Jinpei who was just trying to catch him, driving an unskilled vest to find an excuse to take him away.
If it was just a minor problem, they would definitely choose to ask Noah to come over and let them know.
“Oh, it’s the one driving the car, uh, his name is Asai-kun.” Matsuda Jinpei shook his head, shook the image of Asai Narumi who was completely dressed as an urban beauty out of his mind, and said seriously , "He said that he noticed that the 'atmosphere' nearby was not quite right."
"Atmosphere? Where is the atmosphere?" Karasawa frowned.
Will come to him specially to come to the rescue, then this description must be inseparable from the cognitive world.
"The atmosphere 'over there'." Matsuda Jinpei nodded his sunglasses, "I also felt a little bit. It's indeed a bit weird. Do you want to take a look for yourself?"
< br>Tang Zeyi opened his "third eye", and alternative vision appeared in his field of vision.
There was no bright reminder color in front of him, but a thin and dense red mist suddenly surged up, causing Tang Ze to dodge backwards involuntarily.
“We don’t feel quite right, maybe it’s related to the serial murder case you mentioned before setting off.” Matsuda Jinpei grabbed Karasawa who was shrinking back, “Miss Shimabukuro Kimie said, this may be Is it a kind of... murderous intention? Anyway, the world over there must have changed a little."
Tangze, who had never seen this scene but had experienced two outrageous island owners, nodded thoughtfully.
"What she said must be right. The lives in that guy's hands must be more than just two."
————
"Karasawa ! It’s okay!”
After helping Matsuda Jinpei to adjust his disguise, and discussing Adachi Tohru’s situation and the profile of the murderer, it was more than an hour later that Karasawa returned to the Wawu Hotel. Something happened.
As soon as he walked in, Suzuki Sonoko and Mao Lilan, who were pacing anxiously in the hall, immediately pounced on him, grabbed his arm one by one, and turned him around, as if to confirm that he was indeed intact.
"If it weren't for the kindness of the hotel guy, I wouldn't have known that you and he didn't seem to have a very happy time after you left." Suzuki Sonoko put her hands on her hips and said dissatisfiedly, "If you don't want to be with him, You should have found an excuse to refuse when you were alone. We must be on your side!" "What can I do..." Karasawa asked pretending to be confused, while casting his inquiring gaze in Kyogoku's direction. .
A dark-skinned boy wearing thick glasses that obscured the upper half of his face was wiping the table at the front desk. He felt Karasawa's gaze and seemed to be calm. Pushed up his glasses.
This is a bit beyond Tangze's expectations.
According to his understanding, Kyogoku is indeed a resolute and upright person, but looking at the few scenes he appears in, he can be regarded as a love brain.
He does fight against evil, and he does have a righteous heart, but most of the purpose of his actions is for Suzuki Sonoko.
It’s not that he is not righteous and enthusiastic, but his world is indeed quite pure and narrow, and cannot tolerate anything other than his goals.
As a man who appeared around Suzuki Sonoko, Karasawa was not surprised that Kyogoku Makoto would be stared at and followed, but Kyogoku Makoto actually stepped over the shyness just because he witnessed the scene where he was suspected of being threatened. I approached Suzuki Sonoko directly with the idea, and he was quite surprised.
Sure enough, people cannot be generalized with simple labels.
"But, you and that policeman don't seem to be getting along very happily." Mao Lilan was still worried, and as he spoke, he couldn't help but glance at Conan, who was approaching quickly.
In her eyes, who still didn’t know that Conan’s shrinkage was due to her own attempt to kill him, it was the shady case involving Karasawa that caused Kudo Shinichi to become like this.
Now that a strange policeman who seemed to know Tangze suddenly ran out, it was difficult for her not to think too much in that direction.
Conan obviously thinks so too.
"That policeman uncle seems to know you very well, Brother Tangze." Conan made some mental preparations, and then started to ask in an innocent tone under Mao Lilan's gaze, "It's you A friend from before? ”
"...It's a policeman I met when I was in Kyoto." Karasawa sorted out his words and said ambiguously, "Because of the case, well, that case, he had some contact with me."
< br>Suzuki Sonoko and Mao Lilan had no special reaction, but Conan suddenly became alert.
Tang Ze's case was a complete frame-up, but because the person who took action did not hesitate to spend a lot of money, a lot of manpower and material resources were spent on this case, and even tampered with the memory of Tang Ze, the victim himself. As a result, the whole case is like a ball of yarn with no thread to find.
Even with the help of Hattori Heiji, even with the help of many forces, unless Karasawa completely gives up his identity and starts over in a different place, the stigma that affects his entire life will have to be firmly attached to In him, it stays with him throughout his life.
The other party used illegal means to create a false injustice. They wanted to overturn it, but they could only use legal means to confront it head-on. It was very unfair, but this is the status quo.
Hattori Heiji tried his best but could not dig out a few people involved in the case, but this guy suddenly appeared on his own, and as soon as he appeared, he targeted Karasawa.
If Adachi Toru is related to that case, his identity will be very suspicious.
"Don't be like this, I'm fine." Karasawa showed an open-minded smile, "As for Mr. Adachi... It's normal for him to have opinions about me. I can't blame him, probably. "
"Huh?" Suzuki Sonoko snorted in confusion, "Is he a police officer related to your case? But you are the one who was wronged. Why does he have any objection to you?"
"Because Kudo-kun and Hattori-kun are working hard to overturn my case. He was implicated in some cases, so he was punished, completely lost his official position, and was dismissed from the police force." Karasawa blinked and threw it away in an orderly manner. After coming up with the prepared script settings, "There's nothing I can do about it. Who told me to be arrested by him?"
"Huh?!"
————
"Is it because that person is related to the organization that you didn't let him notice me at noon?"
Conan, who was holding the fairy wand forced by Mao Lilan and shaking the star light in his hand, suddenly asked when he saw Tang Ze sitting aside and looking very relaxed.
At this moment, the fireworks display has begun. After the emotion passed, Suzuki Sonoko, who did not forget his original intention and wanted to catch handsome guys, couldn't help but drag Mao Lilan to visit the stalls.
So Conan, who might have been a nuisance, was given to Karasawa, who was also a nuisance, and was placed on the viewing lawn as a left-behind child.
Because of this, he finally had the opportunity to carefully question this new person who suddenly appeared.
Logically there does not seem to be much of a problem with the appearance of this former policeman. The detective who lost his job went to Izu to relax, which is his own freedom, but deep down in his heart, he always felt that this person had met someone else. Karasawa is definitely not a coincidence.
If his and Hattori's reasoning is correct, this is another police figure suspected of being related to the organization...
They have all been infiltrated by the organization to this point. These policemen are really Can you still want it?
"...I have no evidence, but I do suspect it." Karasawa, who was well prepared, nodded, "He was the policeman who arrested me. My memory tells me so. But you have also heard about Okita. According to the statement, I was probably directly controlled by the organization that day."
Conan nodded, feeling that Tangze's statement was consistent with his own thinking.
Okita Souji, who has a good relationship with Karasawa and is probably one of the few close friends in the past eighteen years, has no need to lie on this issue, so the greatest possibility , there was something wrong with Karasawa's memory, and what Souji Okita saw was the truth of that day.
But if this is the case, Adachi Toru, the arrester in Karasawa's memory, appeared in front of him so naturally according to the image and identity in Karasawa's memory, as if he was really the one arresting him. Like Tang Ze, the problem is huge.
“More than that,” before Matsuda Jinpei had a chance to make his official appearance, Karasawa added with embarrassment, “In my memory, he was the one who mainly inflicted violence on me.”
< br>
Not entirely a lie.
The policeman who was dug out by Hattori Heiji and taken down by Amuro Toru was indeed this image in Karasawa's memory.
Is it okay to hand over the responsibility to Toru Adachi who will replace him?
"Sneeze——" Not far away, Jinpei Matsuda, who was spreading a picnic cloth outside the RV with the members of the Phantom Thieves, sneezed hard.
