Chapter 53

Elegant as a prince.

He slightly raised the cup,

and the liquid in the cup slowly flowed into his mouth.

Fragrant and dense,

with an endless aftertaste.

“I don’t believe you!”

Miyano Shiho thrust the knife forward fiercely,

her eyes very cold.

Look! I said no one would believe it.

Every time it reached a critical moment like this,

the character who was supposed to be the witness never appeared.

Either they went out for something,

or they were just in the bathroom.

Was this a necessary trope for every anime?

Where did that woman Miyano Akemi go?

“La la la la~”

At this moment, Miyano Akemi was in a great mood.

She was washing Miyano Shiho’s white lab coat.

Watching the white lab coat spinning in circles in the washing machine,

she was overjoyed,

as if she saw the happy future life for herself and her sister.

They had finally gotten their wish

and escaped the organization.

Just last night,

she had already discovered the truth that the little girl was her sister.

Although she didn’t know why her sister had suddenly shrunk,

blood is thicker than water.

No matter how strange things were in this world,

no matter what her sister had turned into,

as long as her sister came to her side,

she would definitely be able to recognize her.

“Move aside!”

Hoshino Ki’s eyes gradually sank.

The air in the room was instantly covered in coldness.

He stared tightly at Miyano Shiho,

as if he wanted to eat all her flesh and blood into his belly.

“You!”

This look!

That’s right!

She had seen this look before.

It was a look called killing intent.

This look

was a terrifying look that required years of constant killing to be stained with.

And this look,

she had only seen it in Gin’s eyes in the organization.

Miyano Shiho was suddenly a bit scared.

She didn’t know Hoshino Ki,

just vaguely feeling that the other party’s face was somewhat familiar,

like she had seen it somewhere before.

“Ah! Shiho, you’re finally awake, that’s great!”

Suddenly!

Miyano Akemi’s excited voice came from behind Hoshino Ki.

“?”

Miyano Shiho was suddenly in a trance.

She thought it was her own illusion.

Her pupils gradually shrank.

Slowly,

she tilted her head and looked behind Hoshino Ki.

Instantly!

Miyano Shiho stood frozen in place.

The knife in her hand dropped to the ground instantly,

making a “clatter” sound.

Was she already dead?

She had actually seen her sister here.

Sure enough, she was dead.

“Sis...ter...”

Only to see

Miyano Shiho’s ice-blue eyes

flash with a glimmer of light.

Those beautiful eyes

were suddenly uncontrollably invaded by tears.

Tears gushed out of her eye sockets like a broken dam,

two thin streams flowing down her cheeks

and dripping onto the floor.

“Shiho, what’s wrong? Did Zhao Si-kun bully you!”

Miyano Akemi ran over in a hurry, squatted down, and hugged Miyano Shiho’s small body,

then pulled them apart.

She frantically checked Miyano Shiho’s body.

Miyano Shiho’s spirit was nearing a state of collapse,

her ice-blue eyes gradually turning gray-white.

“Shiho! Shiho! Don’t scare your sister!”

Miyano Akemi shook her violently!

“...”

Hoshino Ki had no interest in staying to watch this scene of sisters reuniting.

He placed the coffee in the sink,

cleaned it carefully,

put the coffee cup back in its place,

and then walked to the sofa.

He picked up the school bag nearby and walked out the door.

The two sisters were finally reunited.

Next was to arrange for the two of them to leave here forever.

In the evening,

Hoshino Ki returned home from school.

“Zhao Si-kun, you’re back!”

Miyano Akemi’s voice came from the kitchen.

“Go wash your hands and eat quickly!”

“?”

As soon as Hoshino Ki walked into the house,

he smelled the fragrance of food.

The smell was clearly different from the food he made when he lived alone.

Hoshino Ki didn’t know how to cook.

He only knew how to make some simple food when he cooked.

Sometimes, for convenience,

he would go directly to a convenience store to buy bread to satisfy his hunger.

He walked all the way to the dining room

and found a little girl sitting at the dining table.

The girl was sitting upright.

She was wearing Hoshino Ki’s pajamas.

From the patterns on the pajamas that were clearly misaligned,

it could be seen that the clothes had been tailored and sewn.

The baggy adult-sized clothes

were actually so fitting on the little girl.

In front of her was Hoshino Ki’s coffee cup,

and in her hand, she was holding the newspaper and magazine Hoshino Ki had ordered that morning.

The other party was leisurely picking up the coffee cup in front of her,

reading the newspaper and magazine with relish,

and occasionally tasting the coffee in the cup.

That look of enjoyment and ease—

such a mature expression

actually appeared on a little girl’s face.

Truly terrifying!

“...”

These two women...

Were they being a bit overbearing?

Hoshino Ki didn’t say much.

He just froze for a moment,

put his school bag and jacket on the stool,

and walked over!

“Oh my, seriously, don’t throw your school bag and jacket around!”

Miyano Akemi suddenly appeared from behind...

“Also, Zhao Si-kun, did you wash your hands or not?”

Hoshino Ki was speechless.

He was already used to Miyano Akemi’s nagging.

So he stopped,

picked up the clothes and school bag nearby,

and put them away one by one.

Then he walked to the sink to wash his hands.

“Wash them carefully!”

“...”

“Pfft!”

Miyano Shiho seemed very happy.

She was still sitting at the dining table, leisurely drinking coffee.

“Seriously! Shiho! Don’t drink so much coffee, you’re still young, you’ll get a stomachache.”

Miyano Akemi nagged while confiscating the coffee,

and then threw a glass of milk to the other party.

“But... Sis!”

Miyano Shiho rarely showed an anxious look.

At this moment, she could only helplessly flap her small arms.

Due to limited strength and a height difference,

she couldn’t snatch back her favorite coffee.

She could only watch helplessly as her coffee was snatched away.

This was something not seen in the anime.

Serves you right!

Hoshino Ki finished washing his hands and came to the dining table.

He pulled out a chair and sat on it,

glancing out the window.

In the anime,

Miyano Shiho was also someone who loved coffee very much.

Whenever there was a scene where she appeared,

there would definitely be a cup of coffee in the shot.

According to common sense,

children really shouldn’t drink too much coffee.

Caffeine would affect the development of a child’s nervous system,

leading to memory loss and affecting sleep.

It would stimulate gastric motility and gastric acid secretion,

disturb calcium ion metabolism, and affect bone growth.

Severe cases could also cause symptoms like increased heart rate, anxiety, and lack of concentration.

It seriously affected a child’s health.

She was already not growing up,

and she was still drinking coffee every day.

By then, she wouldn’t reach her original height,

and she would be despised to death by everyone in the Detective Boys.

Especially Mitsuhiko, who had a secret crush on her.

Although she loved coffee like her life in the anime,

there was no one behind her to manage her.

It was indeed like that.

After her body shrank...
