got windy.
A few bamboo leaves flew down in front of Conan. He couldn't help but put out his hand to block them. Then he asked Makino Xiaoyou in front of him: "Why did you do all this?"
Makino Xiaoyou's eyes were complicated: "This is not something you should know. Let's go, leave here, leave this man-eating island."
Conan lowered his arms and stared at Makino Xiaoyou: "Are you still planning something? Let me tell you, this island should be domesticated by the new civilization. No matter what you want to do, you should not continue to trample on the laws of the country."
If we want to protect the civilization on the island, we should do so appropriately, rather than detaching ourselves from the law and treating human life as worthless.
Makino Xiaoyou didn't really want to continue to entangle with Conan, so he turned around and was about to leave.
Conan grabbed his wrist, wanting to use the anesthesia watch, but it was empty. He suddenly remembered that all his equipment was stored when he arrived on the island.
Now he was wearing a kimono without even a pocket, let alone any props.
"Damn it." Conan was secretly annoyed at his own carelessness.
At this moment, another voice sounded: "He is doing this for his father."
Conan and Makino Xiaoyou were both startled and turned to look.
The white-haired young man had been standing there since some point, looking down at them condescendingly.
"Mr. Shirakawa!"
Conan exclaimed excitedly.
Mr. Shirakawa is here, it's settled!
Makino Xiaoyou raised his head and looked at Shirakawa Qiu with wariness and hostility in his eyes.
Because of his concentration on detective work, Shirakawa Akane didn't hang out with young people these days, but chose to go to an izakaya to drink with Kogoro Mouri.
Therefore, he and Makino Xiaoyou met only a few times, and the two were strangers who had never spoken to each other.
"Who are you——" How do you know about me...
Makino Xiaoyou looked at Shirakawa Qiu, and waves of emotion surged in his heart.
Could it be him?
No, that's not right. The age and time don't match...
"Don't worry, I'm not the one you're looking for."
Baichuan Qiu chuckled.
Conan was a little confused.
Mr. Shirakawa, what does this mean?
Makino Xiaoyou decisively denied it: "I don't know what you are talking about."
"Green Chat is your father, right?" Baichuan Qiu suddenly said.
The boy opened his eyes wide.
Conan's eyelids also twitched, and he looked at Shirakawa Qiu in disbelief.
Green Chart?
Green Chartreuse?
Chartreuse verte, which can be called green chartreuse or chartreuse green, has a long history. It was invented by French monks and its specific formula has been strictly kept secret to this day.
But these are not the point. The point is - this name is obviously someone's code name.
——A codename member of an organization.
"I don't know. I don't know him."
Makino Xiao turned his head again, fear that could not be hidden in his eyes.
"Let me guess—back then, it wasn't your mother who wanted to take you away. Instead, you and your son were imprisoned here by Green Chat under the pretext of protection."
Baichuan Qiu stated the bloody truth in a calm tone.
I don't know if it's ironic, but between his son and his daughter, Green Chat values his son more, so he hides the mother and son on a little-known island, while his daughter stays by his side, known to outsiders and taking greater risks.
He thought he was protecting his son in this way, but he didn't know that the storm was caused by him.
More than ten years ago, Green Chat greeted the old island owner and gave him a lot of money, asking him to help take care of the island.
But perhaps something unexpected happened during the transition from the old to the new island owner. In the end, the woman died, her son suffered discrimination, and his life became extremely unhappy.
And it seems that Green Chat is unaware of all this.
"Do you want to take revenge on them?" Baichuan Qiu asked.
Makino Xiaoyou remained silent and didn't say anything.
Conan looked left and right, full of confusion.
"Oh, so now it seems that you don't know anything." Baichuanqiu understood.
Then he suddenly raised his voice: "Aren't you going to come out and explain?"
The bamboo forest suddenly fell into deathly silence.
"Then let me guess again." The light golden eyes looked in a certain direction, with a sharp edge that saw through everything.
"Green Chat is not a fool. He would not allow his son to suffer injustice on the island and do nothing for so many years, unless there is a problem somewhere in the process."
"for example--"
"The middleman who ran errands for Green Chat had some thoughts that he shouldn't have had."
A man walked out from the shadows, his face tired and dejected.
Conan's eyes widened again.
It’s actually... him?
"I didn't expect that just a casual conversation at night would lead you to think so much." Sakuda's voice was hoarse and melancholy. "If I had known, I wouldn't have talked to you so much."
Bai Chuanqiu smiled brightly. "Even if you don't tell me the reason, you're being weird! What normal person would insist on going to the island every three years? For the scenery and freedom? Are you kidding me? If you have that much time, you might as well go somewhere else instead of clinging to this feudal and backward island."
An island that still preserves Edo civilization sounds novel and interesting, but this island is backward and troublesome. There are no mobile phones, no electrical appliances, no modern thinking, and even taking a hot bath is a very troublesome thing.
If you are in it, experiencing it once is fresh, experiencing it twice is nostalgic, and experiencing it three times is stupid.
And this fool Sakuta actually experienced it no less than five times.
How can this not arouse suspicion?
Or is it for a kendo competition? It's hilarious. There are so many competitions both domestically and internationally, but he has to come to this one?
If it wasn't for some special purpose, Shirakawa Akane didn't believe that Sakuta would be so persistent.
Sakuta sighed, "There's no way. In fact, I didn't want to come a long time ago, but I have my own tasks to do."
Baichuan Qiu guessed correctly.
Sakuta is a member of Green Chat, and is responsible for running errands. He helps Green Chat deliver things to the mother and child on the island, and also takes care of the island owner and the people on the island.
However, during this period, he fell in love with the woman who was alone with her child.
Although the other person is as beautiful and delicate as a flower, she has a tough and gentle soul.
Even though she was trapped on the island, she did not give up on life. Instead, she quickly integrated into the island and started her new life.
Unfortunately, the islanders were not friendly to her. Although she had enough food and clothing, the rumors and cold violence never stopped.
The charm of language lies in its ability to shape and destroy the human soul.
An island of ignorance will ultimately make it difficult for civilized people to take root.
The woman finally couldn't bear it anymore, she begged the man, hoping that he would take her away.
It happened that it was the time when the old island owner was replaced by the new one. The old island owner was defeated and was preparing to quietly escape from the island and make a comeback.
After the man knew about this, he planned to take advantage of this opportunity to quietly take the woman away.
However, the woman hesitated at the last moment.
Because what Green Chat cares about most is his son. If his son is missing, Green Chat will definitely track him down to the end, and the man will definitely be implicated.
——So they are destined not to take their young children away.
But, this is still a child.
A child who has a hard time growing up alone.
A child without a father will also be without a mother.
It was raining heavily that night, but it was no louder than the child's cry.
Even the woman who was about to board the boat seemed to hear the crying of a child at that moment.
So in the end, she decided to be a mother.
