Chapter 811 It’s still late at night
"Shall we go down to the lobby and ask?"
Kuno Nayazuki suggested.
Mao Lilan nodded, "Okay."
Just as they were about to walk towards the elevator, Conan, who was in deep thought, ran over before them and pressed the button for the highest floor.
"Conan?"
"Quick! Let's go to the rooftop! Brother Lianyi might be there!"
They were stunned for a moment, then hurried into the elevator.
The elevator began to rise slowly. Its speed was not slow, but they felt that the time passed so slowly.
Until the elevator stopped and opened the door, Conan quickly ran out and ran to the rooftop along the remaining flight of stairs.
As soon as he pushed open the door, he saw Reiichi Akiyama sitting on the fence, looking up at the night sky.
It’s a pity that the stars are not bright tonight and the moon is hazy.
Hearing the voice coming from behind, Akiyama Rei turned around. When she saw them, she was a little stunned. Then she smiled at them gently, her voice gentle and slow.
"You guys can't sleep either? The wind is actually quite gentle today."
"Reiichi, why are you sitting there?"
Conan breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, they caught up.
Akiyama Reiichi shook his head slightly and just said to them: "Don't worry."
While he turned his head and wasn't paying attention to them, Conan quickly walked over.
But he didn't expect that the moment he approached, Akiyama Reiichi actually fell forward without hesitation!
Conan didn't even think about it, he just jumped through the gap in the railing and grabbed his wrist!
But he didn't hold the railing tightly, and at the moment he fell, Mao Lilan climbed over the railing and grabbed him.
However, there was only a small place to stand outside the railing, and Mao Lilan felt a heavy weight on her hand. If Chitake had not run over and grabbed her, the three of them would probably have fallen down together.
Kuno Nayozuki was in no mood to complain about them. Relying on the halo of the protagonist, she just jumped in like a string of candied haws hanging in the air, and quickly took out her cell phone to make a call.
There was no expected feeling of weightlessness. Akiyama Reiichi raised his head and stared blankly at the young boy who jumped out and grabbed his hand without regard for the consequences. He opened his lips, and there was an obvious tremor in his voice, "Why... why?"
His voice was so soft that Conan barely heard it.
"Reiichi, hold my hand, don't let go!" Conan grabbed Reiichi Akiyama's wrist tightly, gritted his teeth and shouted at him.
Chitake, who was bearing the weight of three people, took a deep breath. The knuckles of his hand that was holding Mao Lilan's wrist and the fingers that were supporting himself on the fence turned slightly white.
"Lianyi, don't do anything stupid. There are still many interesting things in the world waiting for you to discover!"
Conan encouraged him out loud, tightening his grip with a little difficulty.
Akiyama Lian looked at them in a daze. After a moment, her pale face revealed a sad smile, her voice still trembling.
"I seem to...see the stars tonight."
"As beautiful as an angel..."
He seemed to be in a daze, and then the smile on his face widened slightly, but the tremor in his voice was still clearly audible, "If only... I could have met you earlier..."
"Thank you for this time."
Akiyama Reiichi spoke softly and smiled at them, with a hint of relief in her eyes and a gentle tone.
"Promise me you won't blame yourself, okay?"
He said, raising his other hand and gently covering Conan's hand before pulling his fingers apart.
Conan's eyes suddenly widened, "Reiichi! No!!"
"Thanks......"
Akiyama Reiichi said silently, gently curved his eyes, and fell downwards.
“Reiichi!!”
Conan suddenly stretched out his hand downwards, but still failed to catch Reiichi Akiyama who was falling.
He opened his eyes wide, his fingers weak, and it seemed that only Akiyama Rei's falling figure was reflected in his eyes——
With tears in his eyes and a smile on his face, he fell from a great height, as if he was mercilessly swallowed by the black abyss.
The bright red blood splattered.
It was like a red spider lily breaking through the soil, finally welcoming the starry sky he had been looking forward to all his life.
Like a red ephemeral flower irrigated with blood, it briefly embraced the belated angel beside it.
In the end, I was trapped in the swamp with only relief and liberation.
The hotel staff who rushed over helped pull Mouri Ran and Conan up.
Silence spread around.
Mao Lilan fell to one side weakly, leaning lightly on Kuno Nayazuki, covering her face with her fingers, tears flowing like a spring.
She seemed to understand why she wanted to help Reiichi Akiyama fulfill his wish.
Maybe, I just don’t want him to have any regrets.
Conan stood by the railing, holding it tightly with both hands, with his head lowered. The wind blew through his hair, blocking his face.
They spent half a month taking Akiyama Reiichi out for fun and spending time with him, so how could they not have feelings for him?
They truly like Reiichi Akiyama and hope that he can live a happy life.
But every little bit of their time together seemed to have determined his final choice and outcome.
He is curious about everything and pity everything. He never blames anyone and always says "it doesn't matter".
He seemed to be attached to everything, yet not bound by anything.
He is like an ignorant child and also like a weathered old man. He is in between the two, but he just can't become a teenager.
He had clearly stayed in the darkness for a long time, but the light he was exposed to was only for a moment.
Akiyama Reiichi...
It was as if it had become a name that they would never be able to mention in their entire lives.
The staff helped to make a phone call and Reiichi Akiyama's body was quickly taken away.
......
[Lord Host——! ! ]
The moment Akiyama Lian fell down, 01 came out and saw this scene. It was so scared that it almost chased after her, but a hand behind it grabbed it in time.
01 Turning around, it was stunned when it saw Qianzhu. It was so frightened that it couldn't utter a word.
Chitake gave it a faint smile, and then her attention was still on Conan and the others.
"Did you mistake him for me?"
01 scratched his head and stammered, "I'm sorry, because he looks a lot like the host, I got nervous and made a mistake...]
Qian Zhu pulled the corners of his lips slightly and responded softly: "It's okay."
After the incident was over, they left the rooftop.
It's still late at night, but I can't fall asleep anymore.
After reluctantly saying goodnight, they returned to their respective rooms.
The moment the door was closed, Qianzhu suddenly fell to the ground.
01, who was originally feeling lucky that it was not his host who fell, was stunned for a moment, and then a heavy feeling of panic invaded his whole body.
