Chapter 1353 The Asano Family’s Meal Today
The tainted witness plan is currently the biggest benefit that Rei Fukutani can obtain for Kudo Yusaku.
The situation is special, almost equivalent to wartime, and the final court ruling will definitely be lenient. After becoming a tainted witness for the police, when all is said and done, Kudo Yusaku can still publish a book and live his ordinary life as a novelist.
As for him and Kagemitsu... Rei Furitani told Conan and Kudo Yusaku the truth.
It's just that Jingguang's information has been destroyed, and Asano Nobushige is on the wanted list again. It can be foreseen that there must be an extremely rough road waiting for them.
But neither Jiang Guling nor Zhu Fu Jingguang himself mentioned this matter in a tacit agreement.
A look of ridicule appeared on Kudo Yusaku's face: "Atoning for my sins and seeking forgiveness? Who do I need to atone for, and whose forgiveness do I need to win?"
Nobushige seemed not to understand the rejection in his words, and continued: "Mr. Yusaku, the reason why you chose that time seventeen years ago to escape from the organization is probably related to the birth of Kudo Shinichi, right?"
Conan immediately looked at his father after hearing this.
Kudo Yusaku did not respond.
"I heard that the research base of the organization was established in South Africa seventeen years ago. Rum killed many newborn babies. He seemed to be looking for something. And we all know that the eternal stone was brought out by you and Dr. A Li. ." Nobushige stood up, walked to Kudo Yusaku, and whispered, "Was the Immortal Stone on Kudo Shinichi's body at that time?"
Kudo Yusaku stared at Nobushige with his sharp eyes like an eagle.
Nobushige smiled: "You know better than me what kind of person Rum is. He probably already knows Conan's true identity. I don't think he will spare Kudo Shinichi's life when Noah's Ark sets off.
"Kudo Shinichi has lived in the safe environment created by you and Mrs. Yukiko for seventeen years, but he cannot always live under your wings.
"Only by accepting our help without reservation can you give your family hope of survival. You should understand this."
Nobutushige is not a negotiator, but he has been saddled with a lot of negotiating responsibilities recently.
I have to say that negotiation is really useful. It can save them many detours and avoid more casualties.
"Okay." Kudo Yusaku compromised. Seventeen years ago he could compromise once for his newborn son, and now he can compromise a second time for his soon-to-be-adult son.
"Dad..."
Although Conan didn't quite understand, he was deeply shocked.
"Shinichi." Kudo Yusaku looked at his son who had shrunk to childhood and said seriously, "Perhaps your mother and I protected you too well in the past and made you see the world too simply."
Nonsense, starting to make nonsense again!
Conan couldn't help his half-moon eyes: "Don't you guys stay away from home all year round and leave me alone in Japan?"
Kudo Yu coughed to cover up his embarrassment: "In short, it's time for you to go out into society. Your mother and I will no longer interfere with your thoughts. You must think independently and use this place to distinguish right from wrong."
When he said the last half of the sentence, Kudo Yusaku patted his chest with a gentle and serious expression.
Conan was silent for a few seconds. No one in the piano room spoke. Everyone was waiting for his answer.
"Dad." After a moment, Conan said, "Thank you for letting me see the reality of this world."
He bowed deeply to his father.
Before Kudo Yusaku could say anything, he heard his son say: "I was caught by you during lunch break. It will be class time soon. If you have anything to do, wait until I come back to discuss it."
After that, Conan picked up his schoolbag and left the music classroom.
He walked so decisively that for the next five minutes, Kudo Yusaku looked like he was distracted - of course, he didn't show it obviously, he just drank a few more glasses of water.
"What do you mean by Shinichi?"
Finally, Kudo Yusaku couldn't bear it anymore and began to ask for help from the only two people left in the room.
Nobushige and Rei Fukiya looked at each other and said, "Conan is probably agreeing with what you said before. If you and Mrs. Yukiko no longer protect him, he will be able to see the real world."
"Is that so?" Kudo Yusaku had been wise for the past half of his life, and he really didn't expect that he would have such a headache because of his son's words.
At this time, Conan, who was walking towards Didan Elementary School, did not have the heavy atmosphere in the music classroom.
He faced the afternoon sun and even had a smile on his lips.
Kudo Shinichi is not a person who is afraid of challenges. On the contrary, he is passionate about a wonderful life.
In the past, he regarded Kudo Yusaku as his idol and someone who would surely surpass him. In his heart, Kudo Yusaku was almost as omnipotent as a god.
And now Conan realizes that there are never absolutely good people or completely bad guys in this world. His father, whom he regarded as the ceiling of his morality and ability, was actually just a mortal.
He will have the greenness of youth, the confusion of entering society for the first time, and the sense of responsibility of starting a family. Like many people, he is not perfect, but he cares deeply about his family.
Reality is very real, but the real world is more practical.
…
Along with Kudo Yusaku, Yamada Rokuha became a tainted witness, but in the public security system, she registered the name Tanaka Kikue.
No matter how tainted the witness is, there are past criminal facts. She probably doesn't want "Rokuha Yamada" to have any bad labels.
This type of pardon, which is based on meritorious service, is the most cruel to the families of the victims.
However, because the crime under investigation is extremely serious and poses a major threat to national public security, and ordinary investigative methods cannot be effective, in common law systems and some civil law countries headed by the United Kingdom and the United States, the tainted witness system and the subsequent emergence of the tainted witness system were born. Witness Protection Program.
It seems incredible that the prosecution makes a deal with criminals, but it is an effective means to make up for the weak functions of public authorities.
After accepting the cooperation offered by the public security, Kudo Yusaku obtained the police officer responsible for monitoring him as a tainted witness - Officer Furitani himself.
In order to personally "protect" Kudo Yusaku, Rei Fukutani simply moved into Kudo's house.
In other words, he is now Nobushige's neighbor.
"Brother, are you going home for dinner today?"
After school, Haihara Ai came to the music classroom first and stopped Asano Nobushige who was about to leave.
Since becoming the president of TENSE Group, Nobushige moved to his previous apartment alone and has never returned to the house he built for Xiao Ai.
But the "home" Xiaoai refers to definitely does not refer to an apartment.
Seeing that Nobushige didn't agree immediately, Haibara Ai said: "The school assigned homework today, requiring us to help parents with housework, and we have to sign. You are my guardian, Dr. Agasa cannot sign for you."
Hui Yuan Ai conveniently made an excuse. Nobu Fan knew it was an excuse, but he still fell for it happily.
"Okay, what do you want to eat? Let's buy some ingredients on the way back."
"Yeah!" Haiyuan Ai nodded vigorously, "Why don't you eat Lin's Rice Bowl? The sour and sweet sauce is very suitable for summer."
In the long-lost leisure time, Nobushige and his sister bought ingredients and seasonings together, and walked back to their home in Yoneka Town 2-chome together at sunset.
However, Nobuhiro encountered an uninvited guest at his doorstep.
The man smiled at him and said, "I brought draft beer. How about we get together in the evening?"
Nobuhiro: "..."
Before Nobuhiro asked, Haihara Ai raised his hands and said, "I didn't ask him to come over! I just want to have dinner with my brother."
"Did you hear that?" Nobushige also raised a smile, but compared to Fangtani Rei's sincere smile, his smile was superficial, with just the words "unwelcome" written on his face.
"Oh, we are neighbors now. Isn't it normal to invite neighbors to dinner?" Rei Fukutani said as he consciously stood at the door and signaled Nobushige to open the door.
Helpless, Nobuhiro had no choice but to open the door and let someone in.
But he was still a little strange: "Are you so idle recently?"
Logically speaking, as the person in charge of the public security, Jiang Guling should be very busy during this period. Besides, I heard that the meeting in the UK also achieved considerable results. These things need to be coordinated by Jiang Guling. How can he still have time to come to his place to have a meal?
"You still have a whole night to spare." Rei Fangtani smiled and put the beer on the dining table. "What do you need me to do?"
"Since you offered it, help Xiao Ai prepare the ingredients. I'll make the sauce."
"good."
Jiang Guling rolled up his sleeves, soaked the fresh beef in water, and began to wash the vegetables.
The day of decisive battle with the organization will not be too far away, and if things fail to develop as they expect, they may never have the chance to sit down and have a meal together again. ——This is the real reason why Jianggu Ling did not say anything.
Soak the beef in water to remove the fishy smell, then slice it, add mirin, soy sauce, pepper, and starch, mix well, and marinate for 20 minutes. During this period, Haihara Ai had already cut tomatoes, carrots, potatoes and onions.
Heat oil in a pan, add onions and garlic and stir-fry, then add carrots and potatoes, stir-fry until the ingredients are soft and serve. Then add additional butter to fry the beef, and add the flour that has been fried in advance...
The three people in the kitchen each perform their duties. Although there are many people, it does not seem chaotic. Instead, it is coordinated and orderly, doubling the efficiency.
Cooking is a chemical process. Once you master the principles, each cuisine is actually similar.
For example, mirin plays a role in removing fishy smell, improving flavor, and adding color to Japanese food. In Chinese cuisine, cooking wine and sugar play this role, and in Western food, it turns into wine.
Lin's rice bowl is originally a simple home-cooked dish like curry. In less than half an hour, the meal is ready.
Spoon a generous spoonful of the side dishes mixed with vegetables, beef and sauce on top of the rice, and a Lin's rice bowl is ready.
Today’s meal at Asanoya is Lin’s rice bowl + draft beer.
Nobushige remembers that Ryoya Rei's drinking capacity is very good. While police code stipulates that alcohol cannot be consumed while on duty, the organization has no similar requirement at all. Members of the organization often meet in bars, so it would be strange not to drink.
But today Jianggu Ling was obviously drunk.
He took Xin Fan and chatted about the past, and while chatting, he started to talk: "You don't know how bad you were when you were a child! You secretly ran out to watch the fireworks display at night, and when the adults found out, they framed me. !”
Nobushige pushed someone away to avoid being passed out by alcohol.
"You're drunk." Xinfan judged rationally.
"I'm not drunk." Rei Fukitani waved him away, "And that time in Nagano Prefecture, you suddenly cut off contact without saying a word. I spent a long time reflecting on whether I had done something wrong. .”
Xinfan glanced at Haiyuan Ai quickly.
Hui Yuan Ai pretended that he was deaf and couldn't hear anything. He only held a 500ml wine glass and drank beer without saying a word.
etc!
Is Xiaoai still a minor?
Xinfan quickly took away Xiao Ai's wine glass and scolded him with a straight face: "Children can't drink."
"But……"
"Uh-huh!"
Feng Guling's movements were too fast to be caught by the naked eye. He quickly snatched the wine glass and returned it to Haibara Ai, who was still confused.
Then he glared at Xinfan angrily and complained: "You are so stupid that you dare to forget about me casually. Now you are actually robbing other children's things. It's simply abominable!"
Nobuhiro: "..."
He was sick trying to reason with a drunk!
Come on, come on, Jiang Guling, wake up, let's talk about it.
What does it mean to have a bad brain and forget you casually? Isn’t this the character of Matsuda Jinpei? Also, when was the last time we suddenly lost contact in Nagano?
Could it be possible that Zero went to Nagano with Matsuda without telling him before to find Morofushi Gaoming?
By the way, does his current face look similar to Matsuda?
"And that Shuichi Akai!" The drunken Rei Fukutani looked like he was the best in the world. He stepped on the chair with one foot and raised his wine glass. "Obviously he was the one who reminded me that the organization wanted to execute Scotland, but it turned out that Dare to shoot in front of me, in front of me..."
Jianggu Ling's voice became lower and lower, and Nobumangi was really worried, fearing that he would accidentally cry "Wow".
However, Akai Shuichi actually reminded Bourbon before he was ordered to execute him. Did he realize that there was a problem with their identities at that time?
Nobuhiro had never seen a drunk Fangtani Rei before, and he didn't expect that it would bring him so many unexpected gains.
While talking to a drunk guy is fun, taking care of a guy who isn't thinking right is troublesome.
When Rei Fukiya decided to open the next bottle of beer, Nobushige stopped him in time: "It's already very late. I'll take you back to Kudo's house."
Unexpectedly, Rei Fukutani waved away his hand again, and said sternly: "The Kudo family? Why should I go back to the Kudo family?"
"Because you live there now, you bastard!"
"I'm not going, I want to go home!"
"Okay, go home." Nobuhiro said patiently, "Then you put on your coat and I will take you home."
Fangtani Zero was wary: "Who are you? What do you want to do? Doctor Elena said you can't just accept help from strangers."
Nobuhiro: "..."
What's going on now, the young body has dropped to zero?
Nobushige was about to tie up Rei Fangtani and throw him into the yard of Kudo's house, but when he turned around, he found Haibara Ai frozen on the spot.
Ah, really, whatever Zero says is not okay, he has to talk about Elena Miyano! Now he has two people to take care of! !
"Dong——"
Fang Guling fell to the floor!
