Chapter 30

Phew -

Angelica was wearing pajamas, standing alone on the terrace outside her bedroom, her upper body leaning on the retro wooden railing.

The night wind was blowing, and the long golden hair was flying like messy silk, making it difficult for people to see Angelica's expression clearly.

The temperature during the day and the temperature at night are completely different.

Angelica felt that her hands and feet were slowly becoming cold. The tip of my nose was also a little sore from the wind.

Can't sleep.

There are many reasons.

Perhaps it was because she had experienced several thrilling scenes during the day;

perhaps it was because she saw an unfortunate corpse;

perhaps it was because... because of fear, because of fear, because of the unknown that was about to come, but she could not control it.

Before taking a shower, Angelica lifted her hair, turned around, and looked at her back carefully in the mirror.

Originally, it was very beautiful: clear lines, smooth skin, and neatness without any fat.

Even Angelica herself, when she strokes her back sometimes, can't help but admire the feel and shape.

The blue hourglass did not affect the beauty of Angelica's back, but instead added a different style to it.

A kind of style that has never appeared in Angelica.

She was always reserved, quiet, and waiting gently.

However, the shining hourglass on her back now makes her look a little mysterious - and also a little unspeakably charming.

When she twisted her neck and looked behind her, the face and appearance reflected in the mirror were undoubtedly charming.

One or two strands of broken hair that couldn't be combed fell behind her back. Every time Angelica made a move, they would flutter gently on her skin, causing a slight itch.

The left side of the hourglass no longer looks like ripples, but has truly become a fuzzy mass, turning into "sand" made up of blue light, completely filling the space on the left side. .

Because of this, the entire hourglass is shaking and could tip over at any time.

How could Angelica sleep under such circumstances?

Phew -

Angelica's lips were slightly opened, and a strand of hair suddenly hit her, making her frown.

Under the clear night sky, she stood quietly alone, looking at the distant stars, as if looking at a dream that could never be reached.

well.

For a moment, Angelica had a bad idea in her mind: for example, get into Xu Lun's room, hold a sleeping little girl in her arms and rub her head vigorously.

Fortunately, the next second the bad idea came up, she immediately shook her head and severely criticized herself: It's too outrageous! You guy! What do you think of the child? Is it just a toy to adjust your life?

well.

Without a cute baby to comfort her, Angelica endured a sleepless night alone. She felt that the sky was getting brighter and brighter, and her thoughts were becoming more and more distracted. With an uneasy heart, she finally lay down on the deck chair on the terrace. on the bed, and fell asleep in a daze.

"Mommy - let's open this!"

Reality and dreams are intertwined, making people's cognition gradually confused. I don't know where the voice of Kujo Xu Lun came from. Maybe it was in a dream, or maybe it was a remnant that I didn't pay attention to during the day. In short, Angelica nodded instinctively and responded:

"Okay."

At dawn , the faint morning light and the light of the hourglass behind Angelica appeared at the same time, covering her whole body.

"What? It's blank?!"

Kongtiao Xu Lun unfolded the scroll that was longer than her whole body, and held the handle of the scroll with difficulty with both hands.

"What does this mean?"

"Dad... can he also play pranks now?" Xu Lun Kujo really couldn't imagine that the man who was basically just an [impression] in his mind would do such a childish thing seriously. matter.

It's really a blank slate.

Before Angelica woke up, Hui Yuan Ai brought a cup of coffee early. Of course, there are three glasses of hot milk in the kitchen - it's just a matter of convenience after all.

Just think of it as repayment for living with them temporarily.

Haibara Ai, who considers herself an adult and mature, tries to accomplish everything she can.

"No." Angelica held her head and walked downstairs. To be honest, she didn't like using the elevator very much. "Children, you can't drink coffee."

The steaming coffee was not in her hand yet. After holding it steady for five seconds, Angelica, who was already "looking for something to eat", took it away with one hand without refusing: "Drink some hot milk, you can grow taller."

Really?

I don't think so.

Hui Yuan Ai looked up indifferently, but did not express his thoughts: I had already turned eighteen years old before, and the prospects for my height development did not seem optimistic.

...but...

can't children drink coffee?

As a biomedical scientist, Haihara Ai fell into a brief period of self-doubt: Actually... my previous height was not good enough... maybe it was really related to unhealthy living and eating habits?

In the organization, ever since the research talent was discovered, Haibara Ai, or in other words, Miyano Shiho, had never been treated as a child by anyone other than her sister.

She always wears a clean and sterile white coat and walks around various laboratories: sometimes studying, and more often, guiding different experiments.

The right to speak brought by research talent has made many people forget that she is actually just a child who desperately lacked a normal childhood.

but.

Even as the main researcher of APTX4869, Haihara Ai is currently unable to explain the special effects of this "poison|drug", let alone predict what effects the drugs in the body will have in the future.

At present, APTX4869 is fatal to most humans. After taking the medicine, she and Kudo Shinichi were the only "positive" "success" cases.

so.

At least for now, Haihara Ai can confirm as a researcher: the appearance of this elementary school student will basically not change with the passage of time.

In other words.

If no antidote can be found, then she and Kudo Shinichi will only be children for the rest of their lives - children who will never grow up - and it will be useless no matter how much hot milk they drink.

"Come on."

"But I have to thank you." Angelica sniffed lightly, and all the smells in the air flew to her nose: the slightly sour smell of instant coffee, the smell of hot milk. The unique milky smell and the moist smell of last night's lingering dew blowing along with the flowing wind.

"The kitchen is a very dangerous place for you now."

"Next time, wait for me."

Although Angelica confiscated Haihara Ai's coffee, she only put it away once. At the same time, she brought out several cups of hot milk and placed them in front of the children one by one.

"JOJO?"

"Where did this scroll come from?"

It's densely packed... Why are there so many words written on it? If one scroll is not enough to convey the content you want to convey, you can use a few more. Why write in such a crowded way that it makes people a little scared to read it.

"It's the one sent by dad."

As soon as Angelica appeared, Xu Lun immediately dropped the meaningless empty scroll: "Mommy - help me comb my hair, please?"

"By the way, yesterday There are too many things..." Kutiao Xu Lun was slurping milk. Apparently, Haihara Ai also controlled the temperature very accurately. "I forgot to tell you!"

"The school will hold a parent-teacher meeting next Wednesday! ! ”

Kujo Xu Lun threw himself into Angelica’s arms with a smile, then hugged her neck and kissed her hard while Angelica wasn’t paying attention.

whee.

Mommy is still as beautiful today! It smells the same!

...But...I always feel like something is different...?

After Kujo Xu Lun finished the kiss, he tilted his head and looked at it. Her intuition told her something was wrong, but her eyes couldn't find any clues.

"This." Angelica stretched out her hand and began to comb her hair skillfully, "Teacher Xiaolin has already informed me."

"Mommy will definitely attend on time."

Angelica smiled and brought the three children together. I read it: "As the parents of the three of you."

That's it.

Haihara Ai lowered his head disinterestedly and tried to bury his face in the big mug.

Zhongyuan Zhongya nodded with a smile on his face, his face full of happiness - so happy that he felt a little light and airy - literally light and airy - his whole body slowly floated, just like Like the legendary master who practiced Qigong.

"Mommy——!"

Kujo Xu Lun didn't wait for Angelica to tie up her hair. He twisted around and got out of her arms. He stood beside Nakahara Chuuya excitedly and nervously, and stretched out his hand. , firmly grabbed the corner of his clothes - to prevent him from floating higher.

Take a look.

That's it.

Although Haiyuan Ai also looked surprised, she soon understood in her heart: I had told her a long time ago that this child was a special "experiment" with unspeakable weirdness.

In the end, she just smiled and looked nonchalant.

So, what do you do now?

After drinking the milk in one breath and placing the cup gently, Haihara Ai observed the situation nervously.

"So, besides..., do you have other abilities?" Angelica murmured something in a low voice. At the same time, she reached forward and gently grabbed Nakahara Chuuya's arm with her left hand, "Hold on tighter. Zhongya. "

Zhongyuan Zhongya still doesn't understand what's happening. He feels that his vision is getting higher and higher inexplicably, while others are getting further and further away from him.

Instinctively, he knew that this was an ability inside his body that was stirring.

However, he has no way to control this ability.

The hand Angelica stretched out was soft, warm, yet so firm, giving him endless confidence.

[Pfft——]

From the perspective of Xu Lun Kujo and Ai Haibara, Angelica just gently pulled Chuuya Nakahara and effortlessly pulled the rising boy back to the ground.

"...Is it that simple...?"

But! ! !

Kujo Xu Lun blinked in surprise: When I grabbed Chuuya's clothes just now, I used a lot of strength but I still couldn't control it, right?

Oh my god - Mommy is indeed the best!

It turns out... the reason why she is so calm and calm is because she also has special abilities.

Thinking of this, Haiyuan Ai suddenly felt an unreasonable chill: it was like the feeling of being watched mercilessly by those code-named members in the black organization.

"It seems that Chuuya's potential should not be underestimated." Angelica took Nakahara Chuuya's little hand and took out a mobile phone with her other hand to send a message to the two young magicians to inform them of this special situation, " Don't worry."

"I will find a suitable teacher for you to teach you to adapt and master your own abilities."

[Stare——]

[Start——]

Just when Angelica was comforting Nakahara Chuuya, she felt two emotions. A faint gaze came from behind.

Turning his head, Kongtiao Xu Lun blinked his eyes, bulging his mouth, and looked at her with some dissatisfaction.

"Mommy - are you hiding something from JOJO?"
