Chapter 618 This Child Is Really Hard to Please
On the balcony, Amuro Toru wore a Baseball Cap, pulled up his Outerwear hood as well, raised his eyes and looked at the dark Room inside, squatted down, placed the box containing Food aside, and started prying the balcony Window Lock.
This morning, Kazami had copied Chi Feichei's Simple Sketch series and given it to him.
Tsk, didn't expect Advisor to do such childish Things, not to tease him a bit, wouldn't that be a Pity...
Just like that Day Chi Feichei suddenly ran to his Home to wait for him, as long as he confirmed Chi Feichei was Recently in Tokyo, and then he confirmed there was no Surveillance in the Vicinity Building, avoided other Human, and didn't use the Main Entrance, then there would be no Problem.
By the way, he could also bring Chi Feichei a Cake he made, and also bring some Dessert, for the two of them to have a drink together...
In the Living Room, four eyes were fixed on the balcony Door, watching the dark figure Outside prying at the window.
Hissashi used its Tail to coil a Knife, hiding behind the Table.
Non-Ink pulled a Rope in front of the Glass Door leading to the Balcony, and also frantically scattered a pile of Thumbtack in the Rear, even considering Whether or Not to Go Into Master Cabinet to get some Venom.
Pity, it didn't have the Key to open the cabinet.
"Click."
The Lock opened.
Wind blew into the Living Room, incidentally bringing Amuro Toru's Scent into the Room as well.
The Scent seemed a bit familiar?
Hissashi was stunned for a moment, its Tail loosened, and the coiled Knife fell to the Ground with a thud.
Amuro Toru just picked up the box placed aside, heard the strange Sound, Judgment it was the Sound of a Knife falling to the Ground, Vigilance flashed away from the Original Place, did not move again, switched to his left hand to hold the box, and his right hand quietly reached into his Outerwear Pocket.
Inside the Room, Non-Ink looked at Hissashi with Doubt.
"We're on the same side! We're on the same side!" Hissashi hurriedly swept the Thumbtack on the Ground to the Wall Corner with its Tail.
Non-Ink didn't understand Snake Speech, but Saw Hissashi's Movement, also guessed something, went to untie the Rope across the Glass Door.
Amuro Toru stood on the Balcony, quietly listening to the Movement Inside the Room.
Not just the sound of small pieces of Metal sliding across the Floor...
The Rope vaguely visible Behind the Glass Door, should be used to trip people, But in his Line of Sight, that taut Rope suddenly loosened again...
Seemingly a Trap to prevent someone from entering from the Balcony.
But, was there someone Inside the Room disarming the Trap?
Could it be Advisor at Home?
No, still Don't Know the Situation Inside, what if it's some other Human, Saw him running to Chi Feichei's Home, there would be Troublesome.
The worst case scenario is, people from the Organization are secretly searching for something Inside, then he definitely cannot be recognized...
Let's wait and see!
Hissashi and Non-Ink together, quickly hid the Thumbtack, Rope, Knife under the Coffee Table, only then slowly crawled towards the Glass Door leading to the Balcony, and pushed the unlocked Door with its Head.
Peeking its head out, it Looked at Amuro Toru hiding Aside.
Tilting Head, Snake Tongue, pretending to be innocent.
Amuro Toru Saw Hissashi, But still Vigilance, did not make a Sound, paying attention to the Movement Inside the Room.
Logically, if Hissashi was Home, and strangers got in, even if they weren't bitten by Hissashi, Hissashi wouldn't be able to run out so leisurely.
But there are other possibilities.
For Example, the person Inside is someone Hissashi has seen with Advisor!
Hissashi turned its head to look at Non-Ink. The Human was frightened and wouldn't come in. What should they do?
Non-Ink had already used its Claws to pull out a Thumbtack from under the Coffee Table, grabbed it and flew Outside the Glass Door, pretending to be frightened by Amuro Toru, actively fluffed up its Fur a bit, and threw the Thumbtack in its Claws onto the Floor, "Ga?"
The Sound of the Thumbtack falling to the Ground was very familiar, Amuro Toru recognized it, turned his Head and Looked at the dimly lit Living Room Inside the Window, Saw there was no Movement, Decided to Go Into Check.
He entered, observed, everything was Normal.
Could it be that it was just Hissashi and Non-Ink playing in the Living Room, making all that Movement?
Was he overthinking it? There wasn't a Knife at all? Just some other Metal Thing?
Non-Ink Heart relieved a breath, and again grabbed the Thumbtack on the Ground, after flying to the Table, used its Claws to play with it.
In the End, it still had to rely on acting to get through this.
"Non-Ink, this Thing cannot be played with, Careful of getting pricked." Amuro Toru Saw there was no Movement, Heart also relieved a breath, took away the Thumbtack in Non-Ink's Claws, pulled open the Drawer under the Coffee Table and put it in, and then squatted down and picked up Hissashi who followed, sat on the Sofa and picked up Hissashi to Looked, confirmed Hissashi had not mistakenly swallowed a Thumbtack.
Hissashi continued to obediently Snake Tongue.
The one who Intended to stab with the Knife just now was definitely not it.
"Sss..."
Opposite the Sofa, the half-closed Room Door was pushed open a Crack.
Amuro Toru immediately raised his Head, and then Saw...
A very small Child!
The Child stood barefoot beside the Door, Black Hair a bit messy, Seemingly just woke up, sleepily rubbing his Eyes.
Non-Ink immediately flew to Turn on Light, "Ga!"
"Non-Ink, you Come Over?" Sawada Hiroki asked in a childish voice, raised his Eyes and Saw Amuro Toru sitting on the Sofa, was stunned for a moment, then Calm Step Forward, picked up the Cup on the Coffee Table and drank Water.
Wearing Black Clothes, suddenly appearing in the Living Room without Turn on Light, and also wearing a Hat with the brim pressed very low, Once Seeing knew he was not a good Human.
But Hissashi was at this Human's Hand, but did not Attack, indicating this was someone Godfather knew.
He knew very well, Hissashi was a Snake that was about to become a Monster, could type and chat with him, and definitely could Judgment clearly Whether or Not it was Oneself.
Combining with Godfather usually also likes to wear Black Clothes, and people who do Bad Deeds have to avoid people's Eyes and Ears, then that should be people from Godfather's Organization, right?
Since he had already shown his Face, there was No Need to hide again, hiding was also No Use.
Amuro Toru completely petrified, Line of Sight followed Sawada Hiroki's Movement, mainly Staring at Sawada Hiroki's Purple Eyes.
Advisor Home has Child!
A Child with a very young Age and Pupil Color is Purple!
Could it be Illegitimate Child? Did he inadvertently discover a shameful Big Secret?
Secretly coming to Advisor Home once, it's really Too Thrill.
Then more Problem came, who is the Child's Mother? Why doesn't Advisor Public? This Child looks more than one year old, haven't seen Advisor bring him Before, could it be just sent here? What exactly is Behind this...?
Sawada Hiroki was Staring at and felt a bit uncomfortable, proactively said aloud, "My Godfather went out, and has not Return yet."
Amuro Toru regained Consciousness, Realized that he was Staring straight at a Child was not good, easy to frighten Children, "Godfather?"
He just didn't Feel this Child was frightened by him.
Black Hair Purple Eyes plus Calm Face... Definitely not biological? How could this not be biological?
"I Help you make a Phone Call." Sawada Hiroki Turn Around Return to Room, from under the Small Bed Pillow turned out a Mobile Phone, Looked, this should be Hissashi's Mobile Phone, Godfather left it for him.
"Godfather... Uh-huh, I woke up... you have a Friend Come Over... Okay..."
Amuro Toru sat in the Living Room, listening to the childish voice coming from the Bedroom, still could not recover from his shock.
He needed a moment to process.
Sawada Hiroki made a Phone Call, and then came out of the Room, "Godfather Say he is Already on the way back, Probably will arrive in about ten minutes... Uh?"
Amuro Toru squatted down in front of Sawada Hiroki, Staring at Sawada Hiroki to look him over, Gaze carrying full of seriousness.
Child too small, facial features have not fully developed, unable to judge whether he looks like Advisor or not.
If there were Photos of Advisor's Childhood, it should be possible to judge.
But Eyes and Hair Color are Same, and also just right at Advisor Home, the Probability of being a coincidence is too small.
Sawada Hiroki also looked Amuro Toru up and down.
Gray Purple Eyes, really are special.
Golden Hair, skin color very dark...
"Uncle, are you a Foreigner?"
Relying on being a young Child now, he should be able to pump him for information, right?
"Not oh," Amuro Toru suppressed the Surprise and Doubt in his Heart, softened his voice, expressed friendliness, But still couldn't help but pick up the little one in front of him, and continued to curiously look him up and down, "How old are you?"
Sawada Hiroki Silence, can you not ask him Age, he doesn't want to answer.
Amuro Toru thought for a moment, this Child indeed looked very small, Probably couldn't even say his own Age clearly, being able to speak so clearly, and Seemingly not knowing many terms, was already very impressive.
Holding Sawada Hiroki sat on the Sofa, placed the little one Aside.
"Belly Hungry or not? I brought some Snack Come Over, Whether or Not you want to taste?"
Sawada Hiroki: "No Need, I want to wait for Godfather to Return."
Amuro Toru: "He will still take a while to Return, then Whether or Not I Keep Company you Play Game?"
Sawada Hiroki: "Play what?"
Amuro Toru: "Uh... Playing house?"
Sawada Hiroki: "Never Mind, watch Television."
Amuro Toru: "..."
This Child is really hard to please.
...
Ten minutes Afterwards, Chi Feichei carrying Meals Return to Home, Saw Amuro Toru sitting on the Sofa with Sawada Hiroki, also not surprised, conveniently closed the Door.
"Amuro, have you eaten yet?"
Today Haibara Ai proposed to Go Into his Cinema Check, After going there, chose an American disaster Movie.
Originally also nothing, that Cinema is his, even if there are no other Audience, a special showing for two people can also be screened, But watching and watching, he then Discovery the female supporting role in the Movie was Chris Vineyard.
After watching it, Haibara Ai also asked him what he thought of Chris Vineyard, and he also honestly said - 'character actress'.
On the Road of sending Haibara Ai back, he successively received Sawada Hiroki's Phone Call, Crow's Email.
In the Email, even the Matter of Amuro Toru climbing up from the Balcony of a resident on the 10th Floor was written, so he wouldn't be startled by Amuro Toru.
"Not yet, I brought Dessert and Cake Come Over, I Help you put it in the Refrigerator, if you have time you can taste it," Amuro Toru stood up, Saw Sawada Hiroki jumping down to under the Sofa, Help him a bit, raised his Eyes and looked at Chi Feichei's Gaze with a bit more strangeness, "Advisor, this Child is..."
"My Godson, Little Tree," Chi Feichei Saw the little one Sawada Hiroki running Come Over, reminded, "Steady, don't fall."
Sawada Hiroki stopped his footsteps, raised his Head to Look at Chi Feichei, seriously Statement, "Falling down, that's so lame, it won't happen to me."
"How old is he?" Amuro Toru asked curiously.
"One and a half years old," Chi Feichei carrying Meals Go Into Kitchen, "I bought quite a lot of Things, if you haven't eaten, then eat together."
One and a half years old?
Amuro Toru looked at Sawada Hiroki running towards the Kitchen Oneself, felt unbelievable.
The vocabulary mastered by a one and a half year old Child is Probably 50-100, able to simply express Oneself's Requirement.
This Child can accurately express Requirement, he Feeling the vocabulary mastered is also more than 100, really...
Sawada Hiroki tried hard to toddle to the Kitchen, running Too Fast, accidentally, lost his balance, 'thump' he fell down.
Amuro Toru froze, attempting to achieve his goal of 'If I don't move or speak, the Child won't know anyone's here and won't cry'.
Sawada Hiroki lay on the Ground for a moment, sad to the Point of wanting to cry, didn't expect this kind of lame Thing to really happen on his body, pursed his lips, climbed up Oneself, Turn Head Look at Amuro Toru Behind him.
(╥﹏╥)
And someone saw the whole thing...
"Uh, sorry..."
Amuro Toru Saw Sawada Hiroki looking like he was about to cry, Suspicion this Child was blaming Oneself for watching coldly, felt a bit self-blame, switched to one hand to carry the Cake, Step Forward and picked up Sawada Hiroki to Go Into Kitchen.
Sawada Hiroki: "..."
Never Mind, give up Struggle.
