Bang!
Shiho Miyano slammed the door shut, leaned her back against it, and panted heavily.
A Porsche 356A... Gin seemed to be the only one who drove that kind of antique car.
Staring at the car parked before the door, Shiho Miyano's heart pounded violently. Had he found me so quickly?
Since Gin had found her, the man who had taken her home might have already been...
Shiho Miyano, you really were a jinx. Everyone connected to you met with misfortune.
She hurried to the kitchen and picked up a Kitchen Knife from the table.
Even if I die, I don't want to die so easily at the Organization's hands.
But I'm sorry, stranger I dragged into this. If there's a next life, I'll make it up to you then.
Guchuan parked in front of the house, the Beretta tucked at his waist, in an excellent mood.
'Beretta (Gin's sidearm)' collected successfully, Collection Points +10
It was just a pity that he still hadn't successfully collected that Porsche 356A. Guchuan couldn't help complaining about Gin inwardly. He was really stingy, unwilling to even give him a car.
Next, it was time to check out his "new collectible."
"Ahhh~~!"
The moment Guchuan opened the door, a little loli came at him with a Kitchen Knife. He barely managed to hold back the force of his kick, only knocking the little girl onto her butt and sending the knife flying far away.
"Kid, isn't your sense of vigilance a little too strong? And this is my house. Is this how you welcome the owner of the house?" Guchuan picked Shiho Miyano up.
"Why is it you?" Shiho Miyano was equally astonished.
She had clearly seen Gin's car, so why had the person who came into the house turned out to be the one who had taken her home last night?
"Ha, did you forget that I picked you up last night? Let me refresh your memory—you were the one insisting on coming home with me." Guchuan set Shiho Miyano on the sofa, picked up the Kitchen Knife, and returned it to the kitchen.
Shiho Miyano blushed. Damn it, she had nearly knifed the person who had saved her life.
"I'm sorry." Shiho Miyano offered a standard ninety-degree bow in apology.
"It's fine. I don't mind."
Guchuan washed some bowls and chopsticks in the kitchen, put the breakfast he had bought into bowls, and brought it out.
"Have some breakfast first."
"Okay."
Still filled with guilt, Shiho Miyano obediently sat in her chair and sipped her porridge in small mouthfuls.
"Is that car outside yours?" Shiho Miyano asked.
"Yeah. That's an antique from long ago. There might not be another one in all of Tokyo." Guchuan smiled.
"Is that so?" Shiho Miyano said quietly.
I know of another one. That car is in the hands of a terrifying person.
After breakfast, Shiho Miyano helped Guchuan clear away the bowls and chopsticks.
"Um, thank you for bringing me home last night, and for washing... washing me and giving me a bath." Shiho Miyano said with a blush.
"Well, actually, I found a female doctor." Guchuan said.
"Is that so? Then I'm still very grateful to you." Shiho Miyano's face reddened even more.
"Since I'm awake now, I won't disturb you any longer. I'm going home." Shiho Miyano said.
"Home? Don't you not have any parents?" Guchuan put on a puzzled expression.
"Oh, right. Actually, I came to rely on Shinichi Kudo. I'm his relative." Shiho Miyano said, rubbing the back of her head.
"Shinichi Kudo? Yusaku Kudo's son?"
"Yes."
"Wait, are you very familiar with Shinichi Kudo?" Shiho Miyano suddenly widened her eyes.
"Huh? I don't know him." Guchuan was somewhat baffled.
He had just returned from America and had yet to meet Shinichi Kudo. Why was Shiho Miyano asking whether he knew Kudo well?
"But why do you have his picture in your house?"
"???"
Guchuan watched as Shiho Miyano jogged over to the table holding the television in the living room and picked up a photo frame beside it. Inside was a picture of Shinichi Kudo.
???
"Why would my house have a picture of another man?" Guchuan was dumbfounded.
This was his first time coming to this new house. Could the previous owner have been Shinichi Kudo's fan and collected his photos?
Guchuan opened the cabinet underneath and rummaged through it, pulling out many more photographs.
There were pictures of Kudo's father, pictures of Shinichi Kudo, and even more pictures of Yukiko Kudo.
Having pictures of Yukiko Kudo was understandable, but why were there so many pictures of Shinichi Kudo and his dad?!
"Why did you collect so many photos of the Kudo family?" Shiho Miyano asked curiously.
"I don't know." Guchuan shook his head.
"I just returned to Japan, and this is my first time coming to this house too."
"Is that so?" Shiho Miyano nodded, then abruptly froze.
No wonder this house felt strangely familiar. I had been here before, and I had even searched it thoroughly.
Because this was Shinichi Kudo's house!
"Ahahaha, I'm really sorry. I accidentally went to the wrong house." Guchuan was somewhat embarrassed as well.
He had actually spent the night in Shinichi Kudo's house without realizing it. It was all that master key's fault. If it hadn't opened Shinichi Kudo's front door, how could I have gone to the wrong house?
"Come to think of it, that female doctor last night mistook the house too." Guchuan scratched his head.
"That really is strange." Shiho Miyano's face instantly turned red.
Whether that female doctor even existed was still questionable.
Guchuan led Shiho Miyano to 20, 2-chome, Beika Town, Tokyo. He checked the address plaque several times before finally going inside.
Shiho Miyano was speechless. He couldn't even recognize his own front door. This person was far too muddleheaded.
"Although I went into the wrong house, it did prove that no one from the Kudo family is home. So you should stay at my place for now."
Guchuan shut the door and locked it.
"Actually, I can go to Professor Agasa's house." Shiho Miyano suddenly felt a little afraid.
She had heard that Japan had many perverted Loli-cons. Could the person before her be one of them?
Even if he wasn't a pervert, someone who could casually open another person's front door didn't look like a good person.
Although she wasn't exactly a good person herself.
But she was only a child now. Living with someone who didn't look like a good person was a little too dangerous.
"Before moving in, I looked into the information on all the neighbors. Professor Agasa is so old that he simply can't take care of a child." Guchuan stroked Shiho Miyano's fluffy hair.
"So just stay here without worry. Once the Kudo family returns, I'll send you back. Don't worry, I'm a good person." Guchuan gave a smile that looked extremely kind, as if his face were practically engraved with the words "I'm a good person."
Shiho Miyano took a step back.
He really didn't look like a good person.
"If possible, you can take me to the police station or even an orphanage. I don't want to cause you trouble."
Taking me in would bring you a lot of trouble.
Even if you don't look like a good person.
Come to think of it, she herself had created that drug and helped the Organization murder so many people. She was also a complete and utter "bad person."
