Chapter 808 Wait Until Next Spring
Chapter 808 Wait Until Next Spring
To be honest, as Yukawa Jiemi's husband, Yukawa Masaki was very angry when he learned that she built a basement and raised a child, but he could not feel the slightest bit of anger towards Akiyama Rei, after all, he knew that the child was a victim.
He pursed his lips and glanced at Yukawa Jiemei's body.
No wonder she suddenly proposed to live here more than a decade ago. She must have known that there was a basement suitable for Tibetans here...
He took a deep breath, looked at Akiyama Reiichi, and asked in a slower voice, "Where is your father?"
"my father?"
Akiyama Lian repeated this sentence in a daze, and after a long silence, he spoke: "Dad...he fell from a very high place..."
"..."
The room, which seemed a little small after being crowded with people, fell into silence.
After a long while, Yukawa Masaki finally spoke with some difficulty: "First, take him to wash up. His clothes are covered in blood. It must be very uncomfortable to wear them."
The police had no objection. The blood on his body obviously belonged to the deceased, but that did not mean he was the murderer.
After all...how could a skinny boy deal with the wealthy Yukawa Jiemi? What's more, he had been abused by the deceased for so many years, and his heart was filled with nothing but fear. How could he have the mentality to resist?
Some people even think that Yukawa Katsume died a good death.
Qianzhu helped Akiyama Reiichi leave here.
He seemed very curious about his surroundings, and his eyes would occasionally fall on objects he had not seen before.
There were many paintings hanging in the corridor, and his eyes finally fell on a pink painting.
"What is that?" He pointed at the thing in the painting and asked Qianzhu in a low voice.
Qianzhu glanced sideways and replied with a smile, "Those are cherry blossoms, which will bloom in the spring."
"Cherry blossoms? Spring?" Akiyama Rei's eyes flashed with doubt, "Is it spring now?"
"It's summer now." Qianzhu responded.
"...Does that mean we can't see the cherry blossoms?"
All of Akiyama Reiichi's emotions were expressed on his face, and the disappointment on his face was clearly visible at this moment.
"You'll be able to see it next spring." Qian Zhu smiled gently, as if to comfort him.
"Next spring?" Akiyama Rei murmured softly. He glanced at Qianzhu, his amber eyes were as clear as Qianzhu's. "When will spring come?"
Following behind them, Mouri Ran, Kuno Nayazuki and Conan listened quietly and did not choose to disturb them.
The boy who had been trapped in a small space for a long time was like a simple child. He didn't understand anything and was curious about everything.
Qian Zhu replied softly, "There are still five or six months."
“Five or six months…? That will take a very long time to wait…” Akiyama Rei murmured softly.
Qianzhu took him to their room, took the new towel and clothes from the maid, handed them to him, and smiled at him, "Go take a shower first, I'll wait for you outside."
"Okay." Rei Akiyama nodded slightly, took the clothes and accepted it obediently.
It wasn't long before he cautiously poked his head out of the bathroom, with a timid light in his eyes, "Um... I don't know how to use those things..."
Qian Zhu was stunned for a moment, then stood up and walked towards him, smiling helplessly, "Let me help you."
"it is good."
Akiyama Lian nodded and opened the door to let him in.
The two of them fiddled around in there for a while, and then Chitake came out. Conan and the others could still hear his instructions, as well as Reiichi Akiyama's obedient response.
"Call me if you have any questions."
"it is good."
They waited outside for a while, and when they heard the sound of the bathroom door opening, they turned their heads or turned their heads to look over there.
Just one glance and they were stunned.
Because in addition to his hair color and eye color, Akiyama Reiichi also has some similarities with Chitake in his eyebrows and eyes, but compared to Chitake's gentleness, he is more like a timid little deer.
Seeing that they were all staring at him, Akiyama Reiichi was at a loss and whispered, "What, what happened...?"
"Ah, no, it's okay." Mao Lilan waved her hands and explained, "I just think you are very beautiful."
Her words sounded like she was coaxing a child, so Conan didn't seem to be possessed by the jealous spirit.
“Thank you…”
Akiyama Reiichi looked even more nervous.
Qianzhu stood up and walked to his side, smiling and gently patting his shoulder, "It's late now, do you want to sleep for a while?"
Akiyama Lianyi shook his head upon hearing this, "I'm not sleepy."
After saying that, he looked at Qian Zhu carefully, and seemed to muster up the courage to speak: "I want to go out and take a look, is that okay?"
"Of course, let's go."
Qianzhu smiled, took his wrist and led him outside the house.
Kuno Nayazuki and the others followed behind.
As for Conan, he was thrown out of the basement by Kogoro Mouri.
Conan touched his head which still hurt a little and curled his lips.
However, the one who came this time was Officer Nakai, so the murder case was not unsolved. At worst, he could just sneak over to investigate later.
Thinking of this, Conan took out his cell phone and sent a text message to Kawasei Shinryu to test whether he was asleep or not.
[What's wrong? — Kawasho Shinryu]
[I would like to trouble you to look up the name Akiyama Reiichi. — Conan Edogawa]
[good. ]
They stood in the yard, looking up at the bright moon.
Akiyama Reiichi raised his head slightly, and the light of the moon and stars made his eyes even brighter.
“What a beautiful sky.”
"Do you like the starry sky very much?" Kuno Nayozuki asked softly.
Akiyama Rei paused, lowered his head and shook it slightly. His eyes dimmed for a moment. "I don't know. I just... I really want to see it."
Kuno Naya's eyes flickered, and she suddenly moved a little closer to him, "By the way, didn't you just say you wanted to see the cherry blossoms? How about we take you to see the cherry blossoms after the case is over?"
"Can, can I?" Akiyama Rei blinked, her clear eyes lit up for a moment, but were quickly covered with disappointment, "But, don't you say we have to wait until next spring?"
"But in some places, you can see cherry blossoms in the summer. Do you want to go?"
Kuno Nayazuki raised her hand and snapped her fingers, and the sound was enough to startle Akiyama Rei and make her shrink back.
But his eyes were very bright, as if filled with stars, like a cosmic nebula compressed in his eyes.
"really?"
"Of course it's true." Kuno Nayazuki nodded and looked at Qianzhu, "Right?"
Qianzhu smiled and nodded.
So they made an agreement that after the case was over, they would take Kogoro Mouri with them and set off.
