Chapter 720 The Boy I Like
Chu Ming, who finally calmed down, grabbed Conan from the fallen robber's arms and stroked his head: "Tsk tsk, poor Princess Conan, you have been kidnapped quite a few times recently, almost as many as Ayumi."
Conan was speechless but could not refute, so he could only turn his head silently and act coquettishly towards Xiaolan: "Sister Xiaolan~"
Xiaolan took Conan from Chu Ming distressedly, frowned and began to scold him: "Do you know that this is very dangerous? I am almost worried to death."
Conan smiled foolishly and admitted his mistake: "I'm sorry, I know I was wrong..."
At this time, Akai Shuichi and Sera, who were a step late, arrived at the same time. Sera threw away his helmet and ran over quickly: "Is Conan okay?"
Chu Ming looked at Sera who was looking left and right around Conan, then looked at Akai Shuichi who was sitting in the car over there and hadn't gotten out, and walked over and knocked on his window.
"Mr. Okiya." Looking at the narrowed eyes that appeared after the car window was slowly rolled down, Chu Ming smiled skillfully, "I am really sorry to bother you for following me so late at night."
Dr. Agasa in the passenger seat also nodded: "Yes, thanks to Mr. Okiya for his help, otherwise I really don't know what to do at this late hour."
Okiya Subaru still looked harmless: "No, it's only natural to help when encountering such a situation."
Chu Ming smiled, leaned over to look at Huiyuan Ai in the back seat, and frowned slightly: "What's wrong with Ai? Are you feeling unwell? Why do you look so bad? If you're feeling unwell, don't follow the doctor out. Wouldn't it be better to wait for news at home?"
Haibara Ai had been frightened by Akai Shuichi before, and had calmed down a lot. But for some reason, she suddenly felt a strong dark atmosphere. When she saw that the other car was driven by Bourbon, she felt as if she had been surrounded by the organization.
Chu Ming took two steps back, opened the car door and sat next to Huiyuan Ai. He reached out and touched her forehead, which was cold and seemed to be covered with cold sweat. "Are you feeling unwell?"
Huiyuan Ai's face was extremely ugly. Seeing Chu Ming approaching her, she subconsciously grabbed the corner of Chu Ming's clothes and moved closer to him. Then she seemed to feel a little relieved and spoke: "Brother Chu Ming..."
Chu Ming patted her head gently and said soothingly: "It's okay, are you scared? It's okay, it has nothing to do with you, don't worry."
Chu Ming was very clear about Haibara Ai's look. She had obviously felt the aura of the organization, which was why she was so scared. So he vaguely told her that the people from the organization had come but it had nothing to do with her, and then he calmed her down.
In Haibara Ai's eyes, Chu Ming is still in the organization, so since he said it has nothing to do with her, it must be true, so she soon calmed down a little.
In addition, when she was listening to Okiya Subaru's speech just now, she felt that she had guessed his identity. When Okiya Subaru said to her, "Don't show that expression," she subconsciously thought of her sister's ex-boyfriend - the one who betrayed the organization, Moroboshi Dai...
Seeing that she was no longer as panicked as before, Chu Ming continued, "Conan is fine now. Since you are not feeling well, don't be so stubborn. Go back with the doctor and have a good rest. The police will probably come to take your statement later. Since you didn't stop the car, just pretend that you didn't participate in the rescue. I will go and tell the uncle and the others."
This actually suited Akai Shuichi's intention. After all, his current identity could not withstand investigation. Although it was just a simple record, who knew if someone who liked to take revenge would arrest him again after he entered the police station...
He looked at Chu Ming deeply through the rearview mirror. It seemed that he underestimated the person who appeared next to Shirley. This kind of person who could easily calm her emotions would inevitably make him care more.
After settling Haibara Ai, Chu Ming got out of Akai Shuichi's car and met Amuro Toru's eyes.
Chu Ming didn't indulge him. While everyone's attention was not here, he glared at him and said, "You are too impulsive today."
Amuro Toru's face was cold, and it was obvious that he was still upset that he failed to kill Akai Shuichi: "Did he?"
"Don't forget that your current mission is to get close to Maori Kogoro. If he hadn't retreated just now, by the time you hit Akai Shuichi's car, Conan would have been taken away by the kidnappers. What are you still chasing?" Chu Ming looked at Amuro Toru, and the air around them seemed to stagnate a little. "If you still insist on doing it this way next time, I will find someone else to take over your job, and you don't have to participate in the encirclement and suppression of Rye."
After being hit in the sore spot by Chu Ming, Amuro Toru's face changed slightly: "I know. Even if I can't stop the person, don't we still have Vermouth? Didn't you call her over as well?"
Chu Ming turned his head to look at the overpass and curled his lips: "I didn't call her over. I guess she saw that the little boy she liked was in danger and came to help voluntarily."
"The little boy you like?" Amuro Toru's voice unconsciously got a little louder. He then looked around warily. Seeing that no one was looking at him, he moved closer to Chu Ming and lowered his voice, asking in shock, "Are you talking about Conan?"
Chu Ming looked innocent: "You guessed it, I didn't say anything."
Amuro Toru looked like he had gotten some important information. His eyes suddenly changed when he looked at Conan, and he said with some emotion, "I didn't expect that Vermouth would like this..."
Chu Ming looked up at the sky silently. What he said was all true. He didn't tell any lies. It was not his fault that Amuro Toru understood it this way.
When the police arrived, they were so shocked to see the mess at the scene that their eyes almost popped out of their heads.
"You guys..." Officer Megure looked at the almost scrapped Mazda, "The car accident should be reported to the Traffic Department. Brother Mori, even if we have a good relationship, you can't call me..."
Maori Kogoro hurriedly stepped forward to explain the whole story. After listening, Inspector Megure looked at Amuro Toru with a look of fear in his eyes: "I know you are eager to save people, but you are too radical. There are four people sitting in your car! If something happens and the robbers' car hits a few more times, you will all be in danger!"
Amuro Toru looked innocent: "I had no choice. The situation was urgent and I finally caught up with the kidnapper's car. In order to save Conan, I didn't think too much. Next time I will think carefully before taking action."
After all, Toru Amuro saved someone, so Inspector Megure did not blame him too much. He just had the robber and Miss Kei taken away, and instructed Kogoro Mouri to bring everyone present to the Metropolitan Police Department to take a statement tomorrow.
Kogoro Mouri and Conan took a taxi back. Conan originally wanted to ask Chu Ming to go with them, but Chu Ming said that Toru Amuro said he would treat him to dinner, so he just went for a stroll with Toru Amuro.
Although Conan was a little surprised why Chu Ming suddenly had such a good relationship with Amuro Toru, he thought that he must ask Chu Ming about it later, and also warned him not to get too close to Amuro Toru in order to get information, as it would be very dangerous if he was noticed by him.
Watching the few people get into a taxi and leave, only Toru Amuro and Chu Ming were left at the scene.
Chu Ming pointed to the overpass and said, "Let's go and meet Vermouth who didn't say a word after returning home, but instead came to see her beloved little boy first."
