Chapter 47: Encounter on the Train
The next day happened to be Sunday.
So there was no need to ask for leave, and Shimizu Koji slept until he woke up naturally.
When he looked at the time, it was already five o'clock in the afternoon. They got home at three o'clock in the morning last night, which means that he slept for a full 14 hours.
Looking at the plain ceiling, Shimizu Koji blinked, and he was very energetic without any sequelae.
However, when he recalled the weakness in the depths of his soul yesterday, it seemed to remind him not to drive the power of the soul for no reason, and not to easily desecrate the body of the dead.
After getting up, changing clothes, washing up, and taking a shower, Shimizu Koji went downstairs to the restaurant.
He quickly made himself two sandwiches with a glass of milk, and had breakfast for dinner.
While eating the sandwiches, he opened today's newspaper.
During this period of time, he has developed the habit of reading newspapers every day, one to kill the boring time during meals, and the other to get the latest news.
After flipping through two pages, most of them were about company bankruptcy or trivial financial news like stock market updates. However, on the front page of entertainment news, Shimizu Koji actually saw Shirakura Yo's name.
Yes, it was the person he killed last night.
Shimizu Koji's mood was calm. Killing and being killed were the same to some extent, and he never cared about these things.
After a quick look at the content of the report, it said that the police deduced Shirakura Yo's motive for killing based on the letters between Shirakura Yo and Professor Hirota, plus the disk in Shirakura Yo's pocket, which was to get back his photos of himself in women's clothing before plastic surgery.
This motive for killing was simply crazy enough, and Shimizu Koji also thought he was a bit extreme at the time.
And I don't even know how these reporters got it. Next to Shirakura Yo's celebrity photos, there were also photos of him in women's clothing before plastic surgery.
It should be important evidence involved in the case, but it was leaked like this, becoming a tool for the public to compare.
This guy who was willing to kill for an "ugly photo" was finally exposed in such a dramatic way, although he was involved in it.
I hope he knows it in his afterlife.
Shimizu Koji folded up the newspaper and put it aside. He also had a bad habit, that is, he didn't have the habit of storing things.
It was okay in the small house before, but when he moved to the big villa of the Kudo family, Shimizu Koji would only clean up when he felt it was time to clean up.
So the newspapers at home were often everywhere, so much so that when Conan came a few days ago, he couldn't help but complain a few words, his house was almost flooded with newspapers.
But Shimizu Koji felt that he could read some interesting books wherever he sat at home. Isn't it a good feeling?
"Ring-Ring-"
Shimizu Koji was about to clean up the dining table when the phone rang suddenly. The caller ID was Diana.
"Moshimoshi."
"Kouji-kun, it's almost time, remember to come~."
"Okay, I'll be there in a minute."
"Yeah, you must come~."
After hanging up the phone, Shimizu Koji showed some hesitation. He was not short of money for the time being, but the salary there was indeed very high, and
After thinking a lot, Shimizu Koji still felt that he should finish well from beginning to end. When the time was right in the future, he would find an opportunity to resign.
No matter what Diana's purpose was in recruiting him at the beginning, at least she always treated him with great courtesy. The high salary could be paid on a daily basis, and she also guaranteed that he would not encounter any bad things.
She was really nice to him.
After cleaning up the table, going upstairs to change into casual clothes, Shimizu Koji went out.
"Kouji, you are still going out so late."
When Shimizu Koji heard the voice, he looked over and saw that under the faint sunset, two people, one big and one small, were watering the lawn in the yard of Dr. Agasa's house.
Ai Huihara, wearing a primary school gardener outfit, was inexplicably funny, and Shimizu Koji subconsciously took a few more glances.
I didn't expect that she already had so many categories of clothes. The doctor must be rich.
But he was actually wrong about this. Ai Huihara was not a person who just asked for money and spent money. It was Dr. Agasa who made two practical inventions under her advice and guidance, so the current situation came about.
When Ai Huihara saw the doctor and Shimizu Koji saying hello, she also looked over, but just glanced at it, and then turned her head back to continue watering.
Cold and indifferent, not cute at all.
Before Shimizu Koji saw through her identity as a child, he was still very considerate and pretended to be a cute primary school student.
"Well, doctor, one of my part-time jobs."
"Oh, I see, then Koji, be careful on the road."
Shimizu Koji nodded and waved goodbye to Dr. Agasa.
He didn't ride a bicycle this time. He was familiar with the route back and forth, and of course it was more convenient to take the tram.
——
"Mika, Mika Station is here. This train is a regular train to Honan-cho."
Kouji Shimizu was almost squeezed onto the train by the crowd. He was a little careless and forgot that it was almost time to get off work.
Fortunately, it was not yet the peak period, so the train did not need a conductor to push the door to close it, but it was not far away.
After Koji Shimizu got on the train, he moved from one car to another without moving a finger, which was the achievement of "brother fully automatic".
Finally, Shimizu Koji felt a space behind him. He grabbed the handrail on the top of the train and stabilized his body.
Beside him, there were still people crowded and congested, but his side seemed to be suddenly empty.
Shimizu Koji subconsciously turned his head and looked at the space behind him.
Behind him was the angle between the tram door and the seat. A short-haired girl wearing a black dress and a white shirt with collar and sleeves, with a cold face, was holding a bamboo sword and leaning against the door with her eyes closed in meditation.
Why is she here?
Shimizu Koji was stunned for a moment, and the next moment, as if she had noticed his gaze, Tie Zhuyu suddenly opened her eyes, and her sharp eyes seemed to be about to kill someone the next moment.
Now, Shimizu Koji knew why there was a pure land in front of her.
After seeing that it was Shimizu Koji in front of her, Tie Zhuyu's eyes changed again in an instant, and her strong momentum was freely released, and a touch of surprise gradually spread from her black pupils.
"It's you."
"Yeah, what a coincidence."
Tetsu Moroha's eyes changed, and he looked at Shimizu Koji twice, then nodded, "It's a coincidence."
She didn't expect to meet Shimizu Koji again here, at this time, and under this situation.
She was preparing to go to the kendo hall outside to practice. In order to avoid her mother's discovery, she even chose Sunday, which was in the evening, and ran to a far place.
She didn't take the family's special car either. Although the bodyguards at home knew her situation, it was hard to say that the few times she was discovered were not because someone reported her, so she made the excuse that she went out shopping with friends.
Otherwise, under normal circumstances, she might not take the train twice in her life.
After saying hello, both of them fell into silence.
