I’m the Pay Thief at the Winery

"It seems that there will be many accidents in this operation."

"How does it feel?"

"It sucks."

"... each other each other."

Kaito Kuroba and Nan Ling were in the hotel room, one was spread out on the bed in a big shape, and the other was trying to wring out his drenched cloak and clothes in the toilet.

Outside the window is the splendid night view of Singapore, but the two of them who just flew back from the sky have no intention of admiring it.

"Liu Lyon just wanted to kill me right away." Kaito Kuroba grumbled, sighed, tidied up his wet clothes, and walked out of the toilet, "It was electric shock and flooding, if it wasn't for me Fate, you will see the news of my death on the headlines tomorrow."

As he spoke, he sneezed several times.

Who knows what it's like to use a hang glider in a wet state and fly around in the sky at night.

"—Phantom Thief Kid drowned in the water. What an inelegant way of dying." Kaito Kuroba hummed.

"Come on, it's much better than being stuck on the wall by Kyogoku Shin's fist as a pendant." Nanling said feebly, "Besides, it's Kaitou Kidd who made the headlines instead of you, so it can be cut with justice... "

It's better than him falling off the horse in front of Kudo Shinichi and being picked out by someone who even faked his death.

Although he seemed to be very comfortable when facing Kudo Shinichi and was even in the mood to joke with him, while Kudo Shinichi on the opposite side looked distraught, the comparison of the two shows that the latter has a greater degree of defense . But who knows that Nan Ling is completely unwilling to face this in his heart?

Kaito Kuroba took the wet towel from the top of his head, and looked at Nan Ling who was spread out like a hopeless salted fish with some amusement, "Don't tell me that after you decided to fake your death, you didn't think that there would be such a day .”

Nanling cast her soulless eyes on him.

"Guess what." He said mechanically, "I really haven't thought about it."

Kuroba Kaito ignored him. In fact, he did not have any objections to Nanling's original choice. It's nothing more than a detective. They want Nan Ling to be a tainted witness, but Nan Ling doesn't want to be a - such a simple matter, if he wants to get away, there are several ways, there is no need to make things so extreme.

Nan Ling did not explain the reason to him. As a friend, Kuroba Kaito did not pursue it.

"Then what should we do now?" Kaito Kuroba asked, "Leave Singapore directly?"

Nan Ling came here this time only to help him get a fake identity for entry, and even came here in person for safety reasons, and the reason for staying here was just to watch Kaitou Kidd's performance.

"Are you suggesting that I run away?" Nan Ling rolled over on the bed like a pancake, and buried himself face down in the quilt, his voice muffled, "...it can be considered."

Hei Yu was startled, "Isn't it, is that why you don't want to face a famous detective?"

He didn't expect Nan Ling to actually agree to his casual proposal.

"Isn't this your suggestion?" Nanling raised his head from the quilt, but he didn't look at Kaito Kuroba, but just looked at the wall in front of him, his body was as straight as a Sakaban turtle, and said quietly, "I It feels good."

"What's so good about it! Doesn't he already know it now!"

"What's the use of knowing." Nanling continued to reply with that ghostly voice, "Anyway, he can't find me."

Kuroba Kaito became quiet instead. He sighed, and did not comment on Nan Ling's deceitful attitude.

Although he didn't know much about Nan Ling's affairs, he could somewhat guess the reason for Nan Ling's escape.

After all, he cheated his friend's feelings by using feigned death, even with Nanling's integrity, he would feel sorry. This kind of guilt is more or less the reason why Nanling is unwilling to face Kudo Shinichi. A small part may be because he is a criminal after all, and Kaito Kuroba, who is a monster thief, has a deep understanding of this.

So if we want to solve this problem, we have to go back to the question of 'why did Nan Ling choose to feign death at that time'.

If you just want to get away, isn't ordinary disappearance okay?

—Kaito Kuroba hesitated again and again, but still chose to ask this question.

"Hmm." Nanling turned himself over again, sat up against the pillow, and said in a deep voice, "Actually, I was still wondering when you would ask."

Kuroba Kaito raised his eyebrows, "I asked you before, would you know?"

"No." Nanling replied bluntly.

"What now?"

"...Sometimes I really want you to be a little silly." Nanling sighed, "Okay, then I ask you—if your identity is exposed one day, will you come back to Qingzi?"

Kuroba Kaito looked at him. The brilliant lights outside the window reflected on Nan Ling's side face, like mixed oil paints, blurring his expression to be unclear. The other half of the face that was not illuminated was also sunk in the darkness, as calm as a marble statue.

He was silent for a while, then replied in a low voice, "No."

"Why not."

"Because... because mixing with criminals like me will only bring misfortune to Aoko." Kaito Kuroba covered his face, and a long and weak sigh came out of his throat, "Obviously I'm here to question Yours..."

"Look," Nan Ling said, "You know it very clearly."

If the means are not decisive enough, they will only leave people with unnecessary hope. And hope is a worse friend than despair, it lifts you up from your steady life, up to the clouds, lets you see all the sights in the sky, and then kicks you down, looks at you Fall down. Hope, disappointment; hope, disappointment; and repeat. It's like being thrown onto a jumping machine that never stops, and it falls apart after being thrown around.

He didn't want to let others fall apart, so he might as well be more straightforward.

"...You didn't think about going back to take a look?" Kaito Kuroba wiped his face and raised his head, "Never?"

"No." Nan Ling said frankly, "So I really didn't expect to see them again. Sooner or later, people have to separate. I just moved this time a little earlier."

Besides, their lives should never have intersected. Detectives and criminals, when there is an intersection, Nanling should be unlucky.

"It doesn't look very successful." Kaito Kuroba sarcastically said.

"...You are right." Nan Ling said after a few seconds of silence. He shrank his legs, pulled the pillow from the side after forming a ball, and tried to bury himself, "Man is not as good as God."

Kaito Kuroba looked at him for a while, then stood up and walked in front of Nanling, threw the pillow in front of him to the side, and looked down at him~www.wuxiahere.com~You You know it's useless to escape, right? "

They all knew the famous detective's obsession with the truth. Nan Ling could indeed run away, and then what? How does he know if he will meet Kudo Shinichi again in the future?

Nan Ling thought a little more. For example, he originally planned to go south to the United States after traveling in Canada. Although the probability of meeting Akai Shuichi or Judy is very small, it is not impossible.

According to Murphy's theorem, he felt that there was already a 'danger' on his head.

Plus, if Shinichi Kudo already knew...

Then Zhu Fu Jingguang and Jiang Guling will know soon—maybe they already know it now. So what's the point of his suspended animation?

"Oh." Nan Ling sighed again, "Let me think about it again."

This episode is very self-indulgent. But I feel good about writing.
