Chapter 256

~4 min read 731 words

"I didn't call you here for anything else."

"In the suite of the skyscraper, the body of Councilman Oki was found!"

Officer Megure invited everyone to the police station.

And informed them that yesterday in the suite of the Twin Tower Skyscraper.

An incredible murder case occurred.

The deceased was Councilman Oki.

Because everyone present was at the scene yesterday afternoon.

They were eyewitnesses when Councilman Oki made the request for early accommodation.

So they needed to come over to help with the investigation.

After a round of investigation and analysis by the police and Kogoro Mouri and others.

They were still confused about this case.

So as of now.

They still couldn't directly investigate the true identity of the murderer.

So everyone could only go home.

Hoshino Mu walked on the road home with Ai Haibara.

Holding hands.

A heartwarming scene.

"I want to see this movie!"

Ai Haibara stood in front of a shopping mall.

Her arm exerted a little force.

Causing Hoshino Mu to stop his pace of moving forward.

Hoshino Mu turned his head to look at the movie promotion on the poster.

Looking at the cover content, it should just be an ordinary suspense film.

He nodded and agreed to Ai Haibara's request.

So!

The two walked into the cinema.

"You know the fate of a traitor!"

A contemptuous male voice came from the cinema's sound system.

That was the movie plot being played.

"Although people in the organization are named after alcohol, they won't leave such obvious evidence."

"It seems this case is not the organization's doing."

"But we clearly saw their car that day."

Ai Haibara looked terrified.

Just seeing Gin's car was enough to make her hair stand on end.

Hoshino Mu looked at her sideways slightly.

Then placed his palm on her small hand resting on the armrest.

It felt ice cold.

And even a little trembling came through.

Ai Haibara at this time was like a body that had already lost its soul.

Still staring at the big screen in front with dull eyes.

Like a robot whose intelligent system had been burned out.

She talked to herself:

"I sometimes ask myself who I am."

"Where do I come from? Where am I going..."

"I am now alone and surrounded by the organization!"

"If I am discovered by the organization, then I..."

"My sister... I'll leave her to you to take care of!"

Ai Haibara's cherry mouth opened and closed.

Talking to herself about some words that ordinary people find hard to understand.

"You are not alone!"

"What?"

Ai Haibara's soul seemed to be called back a little.

"The place you live now is home..."

Hoshino Mu held Ai Haibara's small hand tightly.

Putting her small hand into his large hand and wrapping it tightly.

Ai Haibara looked up at Hoshino Mu beside her.

He was still watching the movie screen calmly as usual.

His calm and steady nature did not feel a trace of panic because of Gin's sudden appearance.

Hoshino Mu, as an outsider, seemed not to be afraid of Gin.

Ai Haibara looked at Hoshino Mu.

Her eyes gradually regained clarity.

"Who... who exactly are you?"

She finally asked the question she had been puzzled about for a long time.

"Who do you want me to be?"

Hoshino Mu turned his head slightly.

His eyes were flashed by the movie screen.

Leaving those pitch-black eyes to meet Ai Haibara's.

"......"

"Don't know..."

Ai Haibara was stared at by Hoshino Mu and felt a bit embarrassed.

She could only shift her gaze slightly.

When her gaze accidentally turned to her own small hand.

"Hiss!"

Just for an instant!

She pulled her hand out of Hoshino Mu's hand.

At this time, her eyes were slightly open, and her cheeks were slightly red.

She held her hands tightly in her arms.

"Dong dong dong...."

That heartbeat sounded like rolling thunder.

A few days later.

Chairman Mio Tokiwa invited everyone to attend the opening ceremony of the Twin Tower Skyscraper.

Kogoro Mouri sat in the driver's seat of the car and urged impatiently:

"Hey! What's going on? That rich young lady hasn't come yet?"

"Wait a little longer! She'll be here soon! She's already left!"

Ran Mouri stood outside the car.

Looking anxiously at the front of the car.

"Looking forward to today's banquet!"

"I'm so looking forward to today's Tiandeyan Society!"
