Chapter 174 People have two faces, but you are you and I am me.
The topic of the key can only come to an end for the time being, and the matter of Professor Grave will be handled by Shuichi Akai and others from the FBI, so Shirakawa Akira will have nothing to do with it.
Shirakawa Akane was in no mood to stay any longer. After confirming that Kudo Shinichi was safe, he comforted him with a few words, walked back to the platform, and left through the window.
Kudo Shinichi looked at his phone and said to himself, "Mr. Akai, you must protect Professor Grave..."
graduate School.
A group of big men in black suits rushed into the laboratory and surrounded the woman inside.
Grave raised her head and took off her goggles, her face expression indifferent: "Who are you?"
The leading man had a blank expression on his face as he gave Greve his final ultimatum: "Professor Greve, I think you know who we are. Our previous fights were just minor ones. This time, you must come with us."
He shook the gun in his hand, and the man in black behind him moved closer, giving him a strong sense of oppression.
Grave's face was a little pale, but she was still calm. She looked at the person in front of her coldly and said in a cold voice: "It seems that I can't escape."
She put down what she was holding: "Let's go."
As soon as she finished speaking, the person behind her hit her on the neck, then took out a black cloth bag, put it on her head, and carried the unconscious person on his shoulders. Then the group walked out of the institute in a swagger.
On the other side, Judy and Shuichi Akai were sitting in the car, watching with cold eyes as the pedestrians got in the car and left the institute's gate.
Akai Shuichi started the car, and Judy took out her communicator and issued a notice to the various undercover agents on the road: "The person has boarded the vehicle. The vehicle is a black Ford F-150 with a license plate number of XXXXX. Please be vigilant and keep informed of the vehicle's location."
"receive--"
The voices of different agents came from the communicator. Judy put away the communicator and stared at the black Ford.
This time, they will definitely not make mistakes again!
The next day.
Kudo Shinichi yawned and walked out of the bedroom.
"Young Master, this way please."
The old butler appeared in front of Kudo Shinichi's door like a ghost.
Seeing the old butler, Kudo Shinichi's originally relaxed nerves tensed up again: "Okay."
Following the old butler's steps, Kudo Shinichi sat down at the dining table again from last night.
Everyone's seats were the same as yesterday, but Morgana didn't come today. The only ones having breakfast were Green Chat, Lex, Shirakawa Akane, and Kudo Shinichi.
Because Kudo Shinichi glanced at Morgana's empty seat, Green Chat explained in a good mood: "She always likes to sleep in, so we won't wake her up for dinner."
Kudo Shin nodded, picked up the fork obediently, and started eating the bacon and bread on the plate.
This breakfast was particularly quiet. Everyone sat at their seats and there was not much communication.
After the meal, Lex looked at Green Chat, but Green Chat waved his hand, motioning him to leave first, and then looked at Kudo Shinichi with a smile.
"Ian, come here."
He waved his hand and asked Kudo Shinichi to come closer.
Kudo Shinichi was confused, but his face was still full of admiration as he walked over to Green Chat and sat down.
"Ian, did you sleep well last night?"
The old man ruffled the boy's blond hair, his expression gentle, a gentleness that did not belong to the organization Green Chat.
Kudo Shinichi felt inexplicably complicated, but he still smiled and said, "Everything is fine. It's much more interesting than life on the island."
Green Chat chuckled and continued, "So, do you like it here?"
"like."
"That's good." Green Chat sighed, his eyes filled with the vastness that encompassed everything, and the soft light of his father's role. "I'll be very busy recently. From now on, you must listen carefully to your brother-in-law, understand?"
Kudo Shinichi raised his eyes doubtfully, his deep blue eyes fell into such a gentle and melancholy sea, vaguely feeling the sadness: "I know."
"Although your sister has a bad temper, she's not a bad person by nature. It's just that we've spoiled her over the years. If she continues to cause trouble for you, go find your brother-in-law. He will definitely stand up for you. Do you understand?"
Kudo Shin nodded: "I understand."
Green Chat seemed like a different person today. He talked a lot and kept chattering to Kudo Shinichi, as if an old father who was about to leave was telling him his last words. His words were full of reluctance and worry for his child.
Kudo Shinichi heard what Green Chat was trying to say. Even though they were enemies, he couldn't help but feel a bit sad in such a scene. When Green Chat held his hand, he slowly shook his hand back.
"Father, I will be fine."
He said sincerely.
Although Green Chat, as the head of the United States, has countless lives and tragedies on his hands, he is also a father who cares about his children wholeheartedly.
Of course, all this cannot erase the crimes he committed, nor the harm he caused to Makino Xiaoyou and his son.
Maybe he really is trying to be a good father, but his love is full of self-satisfaction and condescension.
Kudo Shinichi sighed in his heart, and after Green Chat left, he still sat in his seat, with a lot of thoughts in his mind.
"Why? Are you moved?"
The man reached out and patted his shoulder, pulling him out of his thoughts.
Kudo Shinichi raised his head and met Shirakawa Akira's smiling eyes.
"Of course not." Kudo Shinichi said decisively, "The crimes he committed do not deserve my sympathy."
Shirakawa Qiu sat next to Kudo Shinichi and said jokingly, "I thought you felt pity for Green Chat."
After all, Kudo Shinichi only came into contact with the good side of Green Chat.
Kudo Shinichi was exceptionally rational: "But those were just his own flattery. If he were truly a good father, he wouldn't have trapped Makino and his mother on the island, causing Makino-chan to become what he is now. Having lost his parents since childhood, he's filled with resentment and hatred towards everyone."
Makino Koyou's tragedy originated from Green Chart from the very beginning.
"I'm just sighing that no matter what kind of person they are, they all have two faces." Kudo Shinichi muttered to himself.
Bai Chuanqiu heard this and his expression darkened. "Everyone has multiple sides when socializing. Someone might greet you with a smile one moment, and then stand in a slaughterhouse, slashing with a knife and sending blood splattering everywhere the next."
Kudo Shinichi turned his gaze to the man beside him: "Mr. Shirakawa's words always seem to carry another layer of meaning."
The other party always has something else to say.
For a moment, Kudo Shinichi didn't know which of Mr. Shirakawa's words were sincere and which ones contained his own hidden hints.
It's so weird.
Bai Chuanqiu just smiled without explaining. He stood up and said, "Let's go. Didn't the Clausen family say they are hosting a small banquet tonight? You, the young master, should also prepare well."
Kudo Shinichi stared at "Oba Onju" for a long while before standing up and saying softly, "I understand."
Watching the young man leave, Baichuan Qiu pushed his glasses on his face. The lenses shone with a deep light, completely concealing the true emotions in his eyes.
System: "Host, you have been a little too patient with the protagonist recently."
Bai Chuanqiu raised an eyebrow: "How can you say that?"
System: "Anyway, there's a sense of...incompatibility with being human."
Shirakawa Qiu: "...Can you please update this damn vocabulary?"
Is this how "human-like" is used?
System: "Then host, can you tell me something? Why is your attitude towards the protagonist so strange?"
Baichuan Qiu touched his chin with no expression on his face.
"Host~~~"
"Perhaps it's because he is the detective destined to catch the murderer, and I am the murderer destined to be caught."
system:"?"
What a tongue twister.
