Curious:

On Saturday morning, when the first ray of sunlight reflected through the dusty windows and translucent curtains in a room that looked like an abandoned small warehouse, the seven-year-old Idarui opened his eyes.

She lay on the stiff wooden bed, then rubbed her eyes. After nearly a minute passed and she woke up, Idarui stood up holding the white and well-behaved rabbit doll and changed it into the old kindergarten one that no longer fit well. clothes.

"Whew--"

Idarui sucked her nose with a tissue. She could feel that her whole body was uncomfortable, and her head had been groggy since this morning.

She kept hugging the rabbit and refused to let go.

It was the only thing that Idarui's parents gave her before her death that the young Ryuui could reach out and touch.

The red rope safety lock hanging around Idarui's neck was given to her by her aunt Jasmine Ueno five months ago out of kindness, and she was told to wear it at all times.

Although Ida Rui didn't know why, in order to avoid being insulted by Ueno Jasmine, she still chose to wear the necklace carefully.

Luyi has been living in a warehouse belonging to a stranger's relatives since her parents passed away last year. Her backpack and clothes were all given to her by her parents and her father's friends when they were in kindergarten.

At that time, Liu Yi could only try to identify her parents' close friends. In the end, she remembered the characteristics of those people when she really couldn't recognize what they looked like.

In the year since his parents passed away or even earlier, Idarui gradually stopped seeing those people. Do young children think that they are abandoning themselves just like their parents?

Idarui lowered her head and tried to stand on tiptoes to open the door of her cabin towards the living room.

She doesn't have many things, only the clothes that her mother prepared before her death last year, a backpack from kindergarten, and a rabbit doll. Inside Liuyi's backpack are old picture albums, music books, pens, and a photo that can be taken away at any time.

The photo showed a smiling Idarui and her deceased parents.

She never dared to ask her aunt for more items that Liuyi usually used, so she saved the only things that her parents left for Liuyi as a souvenir.

During this year, Ida Rui's nutrition could not keep up. Little Rui would cry like other children at first, but Ueno Jasmine never did this to Ida Rui. It was normal in Ida Rui. Finally, she felt that it was enough if she had something to eat.

Idarui's aunt divorced many years ago, and her children were also awarded to her ex-husband. After the divorce, Ueno Jasmine did not change her husband's surname back, hoping that one day she could remarry again.

Later, my aunt who couldn't quit gambling learned about the accident in Ida's family. As the only aunt with a blood relationship, she adopted Ida Rui because of the pension after her parents' death. The child who drags oil bottles.

Liui once heard her aunt Ueno Jasmine say that if she hadn't taken the initiative a year ago, Idarui would have lived in an orphanage now, and Idarui would have to thank her for the adoption.

"My little ancestor is finally willing to come out? Today you are one minute and three seconds late. If you are any later, you won't be able to eat." Ueno Jasmine kept staring at the clock and looked at her with a strange look as she tried to climb up to the dining table. Liu Yi said from the chair.

Idarui's breakfast was the leftover buns from yesterday. She listened in silence to her aunt opposite, who kept saying the same words. Then she heard Ueno Jasmine "tsk" and urged her to hurry up. Meal.

"I don't have time to take care of you today. Follow me later to meet three friends, and don't cause trouble by talking too much." After Ueno Jasmine finished speaking, she urged Liui to finish the food in front of her. Ida Liui listened. The aunt nodded after her words.

Idarui inherited her father's dark gray pupils and her mother's blond hair. Ueno Jasmine didn't like this child for some reason, but she had endured it for nearly a year for the meager pension. Ueno Jasmine was almost fed up. .

But soon, she was able to free herself.

Ueno Jasmine smiled like an amiable woman, holding the free hand of Idarui who was carrying a small schoolbag and holding a rabbit stuffed animal in one hand as she walked down the streets of Yoneka Town.

"Welcome."

The interior of Poirot Cafe was opened, and Azusa Enomoto saw a middle-aged woman wearing glasses and a little girl with blond hair and a backpack wearing kindergarten clothes entering the store.

Because it was a Saturday, there were not too few people in the store.

Edogawa Conan, who lived in Kogoro Mouri's house in the Moori Detective Agency on the second floor, sat near the glass window in the Poirot Cafe with three children he knew.

After Ueno Jasmine and Date Rui entered the store, their conversation turned to the doll-like Rui.

"Liu Yi, you sit here obediently and wait for your aunt, do you understand?" Ueno Jasmine touched Liu Yi's head, with a false smile on her face and told the girl in front of her, and finally sat down The table of acquaintances.

Idarui nodded obediently in response, and then she clearly saw the faces of the three women of similar age sitting next to Ueno Jasmine and opposite her.

Liu Yi glanced at it lightly and then chose a quiet place where she could see Ueno Jasmine and sit down.

Liu Yi took out her collection of picture albums from her backpack, picked out the paintbrushes with nice colors, and then immersed herself in her own world. Ida Liui's rabbit 'doll' was placed in her arms, and she kept staring at it every few minutes. My own doll.

Picture albums, dolls, Idarui repeated his actions endlessly.

Azusa Enomoto always couldn't take her eyes away from cute things. After asking Ueno Jasmine if she wanted to order a drink for herself and the blonde girl, she placed lemonade in front of Idarui.

Idarui tilted her head and looked at Azusa Enomoto. It seemed that she hadn't ordered anything just now. Besides, as a child, she didn't have pocket money to pay for it. After Idarui looked at Ueno Jasmine, who was talking to her friends and didn't notice her, she didn't dare to drink the lemonade in front of her.

so cute...!

After seeing the little girl's behavior, Azusa Enomoto couldn't help but look at it a few more times and expressed surprise. The girl's hair color reminded her of Toru Amuro, who was resting today, but the girl's appearance was the same as an exquisite doll, but the little girl's clothes It can be seen that it is a bit old.

After realizing her impolite behavior and that the girl was about to look at her because of her eyes, Azusa Enomoto immediately withdrew her gaze and tried not to be distracted and to do her job well.

【shock! 73 is actually updated? ! What about the break you agreed to publish? ! 】

...?

Idarui, who was sitting on a chair, dangling her feet and drawing quietly by herself, paused when she saw a string of words that floated out for no reason. She was stunned.

What's this?

Idarui didn't understand, but was greatly shocked.

She was young and had little experience, so she had no idea what the words suddenly appeared.

Idarui quietly looked at the guests around him and the attentive Ueno Jasmine. It seemed that no one noticed his movements or was attracted by the sudden text. It must be that he was not feeling well today and was hallucinating.

She shook her head and continued writing in the album.

[Let me see what 73 is doing again]

[How come the old thief is so high-end this time, with comics and animations broadcast simultaneously? ! And the inexplicable name is "Breaking Through Different Dimension Live Broadcast"? Can't you see that the old thief is so low-key, and can he come up with such a high-end thing? ! ]

[Let me see who is dead this time! good! It’s just you! One of the four will die! Choose one of the three classics and don’t run away! 】

【73, featuring a free-spirited cartoonist. 】

【...】

Dead? Choose one of three? A cartoonist?

The words floating by one by one revealed a huge amount of information and bombarded Idarui's little head.

She could ignore these words, but Idarui had never seen such a special situation before. She was very interested in these words, but in the eyes of outsiders, Idarui at this time was just a stranger in the eyes of others. He was blushing for some unknown reason, and his eyes had the sincerity and curiosity of a child.

It's really endearing.

[Poor Poirot, the God of Death is here today, as long as the screenwriter is not outrageous, anyway, there must be a few unlucky people in the daily routine in Ke Xue's world]

[But Uncle Maori is not here today, so if you choose one of the three, there will be no one in line. Going out innocently? ]

[Did you forget that there are children from the detective team? Besides, finding the murderer is not easy? Just pick the most outrageous reason, right? (Smirk)]

Ida Liuyi looked at the things floating in her mind like other people's words with relish. Liuyi thought about it for a while, and finally concluded that on the video website that her parents had mentioned before, The text called [barrage] paid no attention to the situation around her in the cafe.

She stopped drawing. To outsiders, Idarui was in a daze.

"That girl looks like a doll, and the color of her hair is similar to that of Brother Amuro." The girl sitting next to Edogawa Conan quietly looked at Daterui, who was not far away from a few people, and said.

But not long after the girl finished speaking, a woman's scream attracted everyone's attention.

【coming! It's the new victim! ! Let me see which unlucky guy it is! ]

[Don't worry upstairs, let me rush first! Urgent! Urgent! 】

【It’s finally about to start, right? ! Let me see what outrageous case it is! 】

【But don’t you feel curious and strange? Although the comics and animations are broadcast simultaneously, and there are strange live broadcasts that are quite novel, but this live broadcast perspective... I have a guess, it will not be a new character in the main line perspective? ]

[Hiss...According to the old thief's speed and thoughts, it seems not impossible...]

At this time, Ida Liuyi could no longer care about the words floating in her mind. She looked at her hands holding her tightly. Ueno Jasmine's eyes widened at the neck. The next second, Ueno Jasmine's chair fell to the ground because of her retreat, and then Ueno Jasmine fell lifeless along with the chair.

The first person to react was Edogawa Conan, who was sitting not far from Idarui. He quickly passed the people in front of the dining table, tested the sniff of Ueno Jasmine who had fallen to the ground, and looked towards her with a serious expression. Azusa Enomoto appeared from the kitchen because of the noise and said, "Miss Azusa, please call the police immediately." Is

Ueno Jasmine dead? Aunt is dead...?
