After entering the villa, he first called Dai Junhui and asked her to go to the police station to inquire about information under her original identity.

Since Numabuchi Kiichiro was someone who frequently appeared around him, and his original identity couldn't be used, he didn't ask his underlings to do it.

Less than three minutes later, Dai Junhui called back.

She said the police needed to retrieve the information and would reply within one to two hours.

Yusuke Suzuki thought for a moment and made arrangements directly, "Get things done as soon as possible. Just say that you and Akemi Miyano were pen pals when you were young, and that you only just learned of her death and hope to get her ashes to bury her."

The billion-yen bank robbery was an old incident; there was no property loss, and the case was closed with Miyano Akemi's death ruled a suicide.

The police will not pay much attention to such incidents that are no longer important.

If you absolutely need any proof, then just get a fake one and send it over after a while.

After receiving the ashes, whether to keep them at home or bury them directly depends on Ai Haibara's wishes.

If we had realized it sooner, we might have been able to preserve Akemi Miyano's body.

Judging from the plant Benadryl's condition, a single injection of a silver bullet might be able to save it in the future.

What a pity...

Yusuke Suzuki recalled his sister's unfamiliar face and went into his father's study.

The gift the old man mentioned was placed on the table.

It's a little gadget.

A crystal princess crown.

Chapter 862 Connecting with Shuichi Akai

Yusuke Suzuki picked up the crystal crown and played with it for a moment.

This thing would be quite nice for a normal little girl.

But if it were given to Ai Haibara...

The little girl will probably be so ashamed and angry that she'll tear her toenails off.

But to be fair, they should look pretty good on.

No matter what, he definitely has to take this thing out.

This is, after all, a token of the old man's goodwill.

And... he really wanted to see his wife's reaction after receiving the crystal crown.

Just as he was about to leave, Yusuke Suzuki heard footsteps.

It's still a bit far.

It must be the old man leading Ai Haibara over.

Yusuke Suzuki simply leaned against the door frame and waited.

A moment later, the little girl walked over happily, and then her gaze lingered on his hand.

Her expression froze immediately afterward.

"Ah, that's perfect."

Jirokichi Suzuki snatched the crystal crown from Yusuke Suzuki's hand and returned to Ai Haibara with a beaming smile. "Ai, this is for you. How about it? Do you like it?"

Ai Haibara: "......"

Can I say I don't like it?

Okay, it probably can't.

The old man's expectant expression and gaze were waiting for her response.

And this thing is really not ugly at all.

The only problem is... she's really past the age of dreaming of being a little princess!

Ai Haibara cast a pleading look at Yusuke Suzuki, only to catch a glimpse of his amused expression.

Hard!

The fist is hard!

huh~~~

Ai Haibara lowered her head and let out a long breath, then looked up with a bright smile. "Thank you, Grandpa. I really like it!"

"That's good!"

Jirokichi Suzuki's expectations were met. "Come on, let me put it on our lovely little princess."

Why add such extremely embarrassing language?!

Ai Haibara's toes unleashed terrifying power, frantically torturing her little sandals.

A moment later, the crystal crown was placed on.

Ai Haibara's inner struggle also subsided at this moment.

Anyway, no one else saw it?

Ai Haibara, who was comforting herself, was suddenly startled by a flash of white light.

look up.

Yusuke Suzuki suddenly found himself holding a camera.

So where did this thing come from?

In the study.

The old man's.

It can only be said that Suzuki Jirokichi had planned this all along, but Ai Haibara just happened to walk right into it today.

"Yusuke!"

Ai Haibara paused for half a second before exclaiming in surprise, then quickly recovered and forced a smile, "Brother... I don't want to be photographed."

"okay."

Yusuke Suzuki quickly deleted the background image and then tossed the camera aside.

Our main focus is on following our heart.

"So Ai doesn't like taking pictures."

At this moment, Jirokichi Suzuki also came to his senses. After a moment of regret, he waved his hand dismissively and said, "Never mind then. But Ai, you have to promise me that you'll come to Grandpa's house to play more often when you have free time."

He then glanced at Suzuki Yusuke and said, "Don't be like your stupid, bastard brother."

Yusuke Suzuki: "???"

He felt he had to say something in response.

But Suzuki Jirokichi had already led Ai Haibara away again, intending to go somewhere else to play.

There are still many unexplored areas in the villa.

However, Yusuke Suzuki thinks that the old man will most likely take Ai Haibara to his collection room in the end, and then brag about it.

Let's go and take a look.

Yusuke Suzuki put his hands in his pockets and then touched his vibrating phone.

Seeing the old man and the little girl turn around, he gestured for them to go first, then went back to his study to answer the phone.

"Boss, the police said the body had already been claimed by someone."

They took it?

organization?

Yusuke Suzuki frowned and asked, "Who took it?"

The person on the other end of the phone quickly replied, "He said it's someone named...Moroboshi Dai, do you know him, boss?"

This is more than just knowing each other.

Yusuke Suzuki's expression was serious. "Alright, I understand. You don't need to worry about it anymore. Numabuchi is back to manage the Black Cat Society now. If you don't have much to do, you can go back to Mermaid Island for a vacation."

"Well, thank you, boss."

The phone hangs up.

Yusuke Suzuki sat down in his father's luxurious chair.

Is Shuichi Akai back so early?

No wonder that during the period after he returned to Japan, Gin almost exclusively drank rye whiskey.

So they got the news about Shuichi Akai from the funeral home.

What gives Shuichi Akai the audacity to use Dai Moroboshi's name to claim the body?

To pass on a message to Gin, saying, "I've got this in mind. Just wait and see if I don't get my hands on you."

How did Shuichi Akai know that Akemi Miyano was going to get into trouble?

Did you rush back to Japan after receiving a text message that was almost like a will?

Yusuke Suzuki had a general idea in mind.

The next step is to ask Shuichi Akai for his ashes.

This shouldn't be difficult.

For both reason and emotion, Shuichi Akai couldn't utter a single word of dissent.

If this guy refuses to give it to him no matter what, then Suzuki Yusuke will really have no choice but to kill him and take it himself.

Shuichi Akai is a smart man; he probably won't argue with him about this.

Putting his phone back in his pocket, Yusuke Suzuki opened a drawer, took out one of the old man's cigarettes, and lit it.

A slightly bluish-black haze dissipated in the setting sun.
