Ke Xue: Ai-chan and I have an agreement

Chapter 742 Delivery

Back in Tokyo, Gato felt a sense of having been away for a long time.

Upon receiving news that Shiina Yuichi had been framed and nearly died, Gart thought of rushing back to show his 'loyalty'!

Unfortunately, before he could take any action, his former boss sent him a message.

Unfortunately, the bottom line of loyalty can be flexible.

The two brothers had him completely under their thumb.

Garth sighed softly.

Now that things have come to this, Gart has no choice but to complete his own mission first.

They escorted Angelina to Sakai Kuroo's hands.

Gart glanced at Angelina, who had a crepe in her left hand and a takoyaki in her right, and silently dialed Sakai Kuroo's number.

The call connected, and Gart spoke first.

"I'm already in Tokyo? Where are you?"

"What location?" Sakai Kuroo asked instead of answering.

Gart glanced at the surrounding buildings.

"Across from Mihua Park, at the entrance of the shopping mall, there's a very popular fried chicken shop on the ground floor. We're about 50 meters to its right, next to a bench. I'm wearing a black wool coat, and she's wearing a short red down jacket, a white scarf, black leather boots, and there's a hint of jasmine fragrance."

After hearing what Gart said, Angelina turned her head in disbelief.

Gart's face was already close to her scratching the ground.

After a long silence, Sakai Kuroo finally retorted, "Are you expecting me to make a judgment based on smell? Besides... to smell a girl's hair while we're talking is a bit perverted. You're really becoming more and more like Crow!"

Yuichi Shiina: Hey kid, wait a minute! Don't talk nonsense, or you'll get a lawyer's letter from Khlav.

Besides, was I a teenage girl?

"So, how long will it take you to get there?" Gart asked, ignoring what Sakai Kuroo had said.

"ten minutes."

After saying that, Sakai Kuroo hung up the phone.

The two sitting side by side fell into silence.

Angelina ate her crepe in small bites, her eyes constantly glancing towards Gat out of the corner of her eye.

"What are you looking at?" Gart asked without turning his head.

“We’re going to be separated, aren’t we?” Angelina seized the opportunity to ask this question.

"If nothing unexpected happens... yes." Gart gave an affirmative answer.

Once she's taken away by Sakai Kuroo, the two will most likely never have the chance to meet again.

In fact, Sakai Kuroo would even voluntarily cut off all contact with him.

Even Shiina Yuichi couldn't find him, which shows that Sakai Kuroo has done an extremely good job of keeping his current hiding place a secret.

"Oh."

Angelina responded and continued to savor the local food in her hand.

However, the sweet and fragrant crepe didn't taste as delicious as before.

Ten minutes passed in the blink of an eye.

Gart sensed something and looked to his right. There was a man wearing a coat, collar turned up, and a black hat on.

Without needing to say more, Gart immediately recognized the person as Sakai Kuroo.

Kuro Sakai strode over and stood beside Gart.

"You're disappointed that I'm not missing any limbs?" Gart raised an eyebrow and smiled.

"A little bit, indeed."

Kuro Sakai picked up where she left off, her gaze passing over Gat and landing on the exquisitely dressed girl behind her.

Angelina noticed Sakai Kuroo's gaze, and her fair face suddenly changed, her vigilance evident.

It's pitiful that she, a young girl in the throes of new love, developed an unprecedented level of wariness towards strangers after experiencing a series of events.

Perhaps, I'll never be able to change it in this lifetime.

Seeing this, Sakai Kuroo tried his best to appear very friendly.

He also didn't want to give Tess's sister a terrible first impression.

“Angelina, right? Nice to meet you. You can call me Sakai Kuroo.”

“I know, it’s my sister’s boyfriend,” Angelina said softly, her gaze sweeping over Sakai Kuroo’s face.

He had sharp features and a fierce look in his eyes, but he didn't seem to be targeting her.

how to say?

It's a bit dangerous, yet it also gives you a great sense of security.

Gart reached out and patted Angelina on the shoulder, showing a rare moment of tenderness.

"Don't worry, you'll be safe with him, at least until he dies..."

Sakai Kuroo's face darkened. What kind of unlucky thing was this guy saying?

I just teased him a little, didn't I?

So petty!

But Kuro Sakai still managed a forced smile.

It seems that he agreed with Gart's point of view.

"Really?" Angelina frowned, hesitated for a moment, then said firmly, "Yes, I believe you!"

Upon hearing this, Gart smiled, then stood up, glanced at Sakai Kuroo, then put his hands in his pockets and briefly recounted Shiina Yuichi's experience in Vladivostok.

When Sakai Kuroo heard that Shiina Yuichi had almost been killed, his eyebrows and eyes were clearly moved, but his lips moved but he didn't say anything.

Gart wasn't surprised by Sakai Kuroo's reaction. He simply put his right hand on Gart's shoulder, squeezed it, and then moved away.

Angelina stood up, watching Gart's retreating figure, and murmured, "We won't see each other again, will we?"

She dared not let Gart hear her, nor did she want to know the answer.

She probably already knew the answer, but she just didn't want to verify it.

When Sakai Kuroo heard this murmur, he didn't even have time to pause for a moment.

Yes, it's time to say goodbye today.

He will have no further contact with Garth or even Shiina Yuichi.

Kuro Sakai had already made up her mind to leave her previous life and retire from her criminal activities.

It's just a bit of a sad feeling. It was Shiina Yuichi who suggested leaving the organization in the first place, but now that guy is getting more and more involved.

With the help of Yuichi Shiina, he began to live a normal life.

Thinking about it carefully, he really is despicable.

Sakai Kuroo and Angelina watched together as that familiar figure walked further and further away until it disappeared around the corner.

"Let's go." Sakai Kuroo withdrew his gaze, his tone gentle.

"Ah."

Angelina's reply was somewhat lukewarm.

The two left the mall one after the other.

As Garth strolled through the streets, snowflakes fell untimely, bringing a chilly wind. He turned up the sides of his collar, his gaze distant and unfocused.

"Cheer up, Gart, it's time to go it alone!" Gart muttered to himself, his steps becoming increasingly steady and determined.

Outside the Kudo residence, a graceful figure stood in front of the door, holding up a black umbrella to shield the snowflakes falling from the sky.

After pausing for a moment, the woman turned and left, just as she brushed past Conan and Ran who were walking around the corner.

After walking a few meters, the woman turned back and glanced at the two of them.

Conan, naturally sensitive, immediately turned around, only to see an empty alley, as if the piercing gaze he had just felt was just an illusion.

"What's wrong, Shinichi?"

Ran Mouri looked at Conan curiously. In private, she now calls Conan by his real name.

Conan looked away, smiled, and said, "It's nothing, let's go."

"Yes, Aunt Yukiko really wants to see you, so she called specifically to say so."

"...Is that so?" Conan's tone was somewhat uncertain.

He knows his mother's temperament quite well.

It's best if you really miss him.
