Chapter 237: Ai: Hoshino Ki is truly too great!

~7 min read 1,335 words

If she could choose,

she would rather be an ordinary person.

With this thought in mind,

she always hoped that the child she taught could be clean and innocent,

at least not letting her future life be stained.

"Where is the body?"

Hoshino Ki frowned slightly.

"!!!"

Miyano Akemi turned to look at Hoshino Ki beside her in shock.

She had thought Hoshino Ki would severely criticize Hoshino Ai.

"I left the body in that secret room... right next to that monster!"

"I've already cleaned the car inside and out, no evidence was left!"

Hoshino Ai said timidly with her eyes closed.

Her body began to feel cold and she started to tremble slightly.

"Well done!"

Hoshino Ki patted Hoshino Ai's head with one hand,

expressing high praise for her behavior.

"???"

Miyano Akemi looked at Hoshino Ki in confusion.

She thought she had misheard.

But after seeing Hoshino Ai's look of disbelief,

she confirmed that she hadn't misheard just now.

"Wait! Ki! Ai killed someone! How can you..."

Miyano Akemi immediately stood out to express her confusion.

"First!"

Before Miyano Akemi could finish her sentence,

Hoshino Ki immediately interrupted her.

"Those who can appear in that place... can no longer be called humans."

"Second!"

"Even if they really were humans, it's better to focus on Ai's safety."

"Third!"

"She was calm and composed under those circumstances, eliminating the evidence of her killing; this is very smart!"

"She was protecting herself, and also protecting her family!"

Hoshino Ki looked at Miyano Akemi with calm, pitch-black eyes.

For Hoshino Ki,

the safety of his own people was the most important thing.

The people living in this house now were not completely clean to begin with.

From now on, abide by the law, don't fight, don't kill.

Could that make up for the crimes committed before?

Not at all!

If one couldn't become strong enough to disguise oneself,

the only outcome was going to prison.

"I understand!"

Miyano Akemi lowered her head in disappointment.

It was the 14th time she had seen such a serious expression on Hoshino Ki's face,

and it was also the first time he had said so much at once.

This proved that he cared very much about this matter.

Although she didn't understand what Hoshino Ki meant by "cannot be called humans,"

but according to Hoshino Ai's description of "red eyes,"

she could also guess roughly.

Mentioning red eyes,

it couldn't help but make one think of the murderer they met on the beach before.

That person's eyes were also red.

Miyano Akemi instantly understood Hoshino Ki's meaning a little.

She even felt a bit guilty.

Guilty for why she wanted to teach Hoshino Ai to be a kind person

without understanding her inner world.

Do not judge others' kindness without experiencing their suffering!

Miyano Akemi felt very guilty.

She squatted down and faced Hoshino Ai with shame.

Before, because Hoshino Ai ran home covered in blood,

and was in a state of refusing to say anything,

she had been so anxious that she lost her temper at Hoshino Ai,

and even punished her by not allowing her to leave the room if she didn't tell the truth.

Now it seemed that she was the one who should be educated.

"I'm sorry, Ai! I'm sorry! Sister shouldn't have lost her temper at you!"

"Sister knows she was wrong!"

"Can you forgive sister?"

Upon hearing Miyano Akemi's sincere apology,

Hoshino Ai turned her head to look at her face.

For some reason, the small grievances she had suppressed for two days suddenly welled up in her heart.

She gently leaned toward Miyano Akemi, spread her arms, pouted, and hugged her.

"En!"

That hum like a mosquito's buzz made Miyano Akemi laugh.

The scene of the two sisters getting along so well was truly touching.

Hoshino Ki stood by and watched silently,

not disturbing this warm moment between the two.

"Hoo!"

Haibara Ai, hiding in the corner of the wall upstairs, crossed her arms.

She curved the corners of her mouth in a look of relief.

Seeing the timing was just right, Hoshino Ki

proposed to Miyano Akemi that they go out to play today.

Miyano Akemi was very happy after hearing Hoshino Ki's words.

Hoshino Ai was also in an excited state.

After all, it was a child's nature to love playing.

Miyano Akemi raised her wrist and looked at her watch,

instantly shocked:

"Ah! Time is running out, I need to go tidy up."

After she finished speaking, she immediately hugged Hoshino Ai and went upstairs to tidy up and wash.

Hoshino Ki watched Miyano Akemi's back silently.

This woman would probably take a long time to tidy up.

No choice, just had to wait...

And he hadn't decided where to go to play yet.

Hoshino Ki sat on the sofa, bored,

and glanced at the TV remote control.

Since he had to wait anyway,

he might as well watch TV for a while...

So Hoshino Ki picked up the remote control on the coffee table and turned on the TV.

As soon as the TV was turned on,

the sound of a news report came out:

"Genius teenager Hiroki Sawada, only ten years old, is already a student at the MIT research institute..."

"Tracing human ancestors through skin and blood data."

"The DNA tracking system he developed makes people feel amazed."

"I believe everyone still remembers it vividly."

"Currently, Hiroki is working on developing an artificial intelligence that grows at a speed of one year equaling five years for humans."

"Fully supporting this plan is Thomas Schindler, the chairman of the IT industry leader, Schindler Company."

"Hiroki's parents divorced two years ago, and he left with his father."

"He immigrated to the United States with his mother, who was enthusiastic about education."

"Chairman Schindler adopted Hiroki, who became alone after his mother died of illness."

"Artificial intelligence, Noah's Ark, is claimed to be the greatest invention in human history."

"Hiroki has received strict security protection."

"He cannot play in the park like ordinary children."

"Noah's Ark comes from a story in the Old Testament, where God, in order to sweep away the corruption on the earth,"

"triggered a great flood."

"God only allowed Noah, who met his ideal, to build an ark."

"Let his family and various animals sit on it."

"That's why they escaped this flood catastrophe..."

Hoshino Ki was slightly stunned as he watched the reporter on TV.

Hiroki Sawada?

This name was very familiar...

"Right here! Beika City Hall, a virtual experience game jointly developed by Japanese game manufacturers and Schindler Company."

"A grand first public presentation will be held at 7 PM tonight..."

The TV screen switched to the administrative building in Beika City.

A reporter was reporting the news.

"You seem very interested in this!"

"But it's a pity, this game only invited teenagers under high school age to participate."

Haibara Ai didn't know when she had sat down beside him.

She looked at Hoshino Ki with a teasing look:

"You're already overage!"

Hoshino Ki raised his arm and looked at his watch.

It was only 3 PM.

There was still enough time...

Virtual game, huh?

In his previous life, he had only played some games on the computer.

He had never played this kind of virtual experience game before.

Since it was developed by the genius teenager Hiroki Sawada,

the quality of the game must not be bad.

Then he might as well go and play it!

Hoshino Ki turned his head to look at Haibara Ai.

His pitch-black eyes revealed a "I know everything" look:

"I am overage, that's true, but you and Ai should have been invited, right?"

Haibara Ai was slightly stunned as she met Hoshino Ki's gaze.

Her ice-blue pupils revealed a bit of incredulity:

"How did you know?"

"Although we were invited, we were only invited to attend the party."

"We weren't selected for the quota to play the game."

Hoshino Ki glanced at her.

Hoshino Ki glanced at her.
