"My life is like a mayfly. Although I have suffered from this weak body since birth, I have also enjoyed the good life brought to me by the Hatoyama family.
By this calculation, I am already much luckier than those other people living in poverty. What else can I be unwilling about?
I would like to advise the head of the Karasuma family that birth, aging, illness and death are the normal course of life. Instead of wasting your energy on your crazy delusions, you should spend the rest of your time on the important people around you."
With these words, Keiko Hatoyama's attitude could not be more clear.
She had already accepted her fate calmly. No matter how much Karasuma Renya tried to persuade her, she would never stand on his side. And as long as she was alive, she would never let the Hatoyama family and the Karasuma family get together.
"Ignorant child..."
Having said this, Karasuma Renya said no more.
He originally wanted to take advantage of this failed treatment to try to persuade Keiko Hatoyama again.
But now it seems that Keiko Hatoyama's will is much stronger than he had previously imagined.
I actually willingly gave up my only chance of survival. I don't know whether to say I was fearless or stupid...
"Stop! You can't go in now."
At this moment, a shout suddenly came from outside the ward door.
Chapter 643: What’s with that desperate expression on your face?
The case concerning this cult group was successfully concluded.
Although Mr. Muraki, the highest-ranking member of the cult, was shot dead on the spot by the boy, fortunately Mrs. Muraki was still alive. As Mr. Muraki's wife, she knew a lot of information about the internal affairs of this cult group.
What's even more gratifying is that Mrs. Muraki seemed to have suffered the double blow of the successive deaths of her daughter and husband. Her spirit had long been overwhelmed and her psychological defenses were extremely fragile. The police dug out all the information she knew without much effort.
As for the gravekeeper, due to his serious injuries, he did not wait until the police arrived and closed his eyes.
Before he died, he told the boy the burial place of Mr. Hanada, who had been killed by him just like Kyoko.
All the other believers were taken back to the police station for interrogation, including the boy.
After asking for leave for Kokarasuma and sending her home, the boy went to the Metropolitan Police Department, first reviewed his reckless behavior, and then immediately started the relevant interrogation with other detectives.
By the time everyone had asked all the necessary questions and sorted out all the files related to the case and the cult group, it was already the next day.
The next morning, the boy, who had worked overtime and only slept for a few hours, just walked out of the Metropolitan Police Department and saw Ko Karasuma standing in front of the main entrance of the Metropolitan Police Department not far away, looking hesitant, as if he wanted to come in but didn't dare to.
"Mr. Baihe, we'll be leaving first."
The two detectives behind him also knew the little girl who often acted with the boy and Keiko Hatoyama. They yawned and left.
Knowing that Karasuma was looking for him, the boy walked over to her, looked at her, and asked:
"Aren't you supposed to go to school today? Why are you here?"
"I've taken a day off today too..." Xiao Wuhuan looked up at him, then quickly lowered his head and replied in a low voice.
"So? Are you here to talk to me about something?" the boy continued to ask.
"I, I wanted to come and thank you for what happened yesterday..."
As if the boy's tone sounded a little cold, Karasuma's voice became even quieter.
Although he had already guessed it, the boy still sighed softly when he heard her words. He lowered his voice a little and said:
"You have nothing to thank me for. It was my fault that you were put in danger... Alright, go back to class."
After saying that, the boy said nothing more and turned to leave.
"Ah, wait! Where are you going, wooden man?" Xiao Wuwan asked quickly.
"Keiko is discharged from the hospital today, I'm going to pick her up..."
The boy replied subconsciously, but he regretted it as soon as he finished speaking.
"I'll go too!"
As expected, Xiao Wuwan spoke immediately after hearing this.
"Go back to class." But the boy obviously didn't want to give her this opportunity.
Of course, he had no dissatisfaction with Xiao Wuwan, the boy just thought that studying was a very important thing.
"There's no reason for me to go back now that I've taken leave. Let's go! I want to go too!" Xiao Wuhuan quickly ran up to the boy and walked side by side with him, and said immediately.
She has gradually mastered how to get along with boys.
Although this wooden man looks really wooden on the surface, he is actually not like that at all. It would be better to say that this wooden man has always been very "soft-hearted" towards the people close to him.
When faced with a tough attitude from people around them, boys generally choose to give in to them without violating their principles.
Just like now.
Although the boy had just told her in a cold tone that she should go back to class, when she insisted that she wanted to go with him, the boy just glanced at her and said nothing more, tacitly approving her behavior.
But after they had walked for a while, Xiao Wuwan discovered something was wrong.
"Wooden man, are you planning to go to the hospital to see Sister Huizi like this?"
The boy now had nothing in his hands, his hair was a little messy, and his face showed fatigue after staying up late to work overtime. Even the windbreaker he was wearing was the same one that was scratched by branches and vines on the path in the back mountain yesterday.
"Do you need to go somewhere else first?" the boy asked back, as if he didn't understand her question.
"Uh..." After being choked for a moment, Xiao Wuwan asked tentatively: "Let me ask first, how do you plan to pick up Sister Keiko after you go to the hospital?"
"Is there a different way to deal with this?" The boy looked at him with an even stranger look, and replied, "Isn't it just a matter of going to the hospital and calling Huizi to go?"
"Uh!"
She was choked and stared at the boy with wide eyes, looking at him with a puzzled look on his face. She took a deep breath, calmed her breathing, and wanted to say something but stopped herself. In the end, she just lowered her head and sighed softly.
"What's with that desperate look on your face?"
"Nothing... just follow me..."
"Where to go?"
"Alright! Just follow me! It won't take up much of your time!"
So, at the strong request of Karasuma, the boy was taken to the Karasuma family's mansion, where a servant first trimmed his messy hair and changed his hairstyle, then trimmed his beard, did some makeup, and finally took a simple shower and changed his clothes.
After all this was done, little Karasuma took the boy away from the Karasuma family.
But at this time, the two of them were still not heading towards the hospital, but the street market not far away.
"Actually, I can understand what you just did..."
Walking down the street with Kokarasuma, the boy, who seemed to have undergone a "complete transformation", suddenly spoke.
Kougamaru probably felt that his previous appearance was really terrible, and he was afraid that Keiko would dislike him if he went to the hospital like this.
Although this situation is impossible to happen, the boy thought about it carefully and realized that he had basically not had any rest since yesterday, and he should really take care of himself before going there.
Of course, the boy also has to defend himself, saying that he is not a sloppy person, he just doesn't spend all his energy on maintaining his appearance all the time.
Although Keiko always told the boy that he was very good-looking, and even had the strange idea of trying to trick the boy into wearing her kimonos, for the boy, it was enough for him to look acceptable.
Having said that, sometimes I forget about this after working overtime on a case, like today...
"Well, I'm glad you understand. This child is teachable." Upon hearing this, little Wuhuan nodded with satisfaction. This girl is not even proficient in Japanese now, and it is unknown where she learned this sentence.
"But what are we doing here now?" the boy asked humbly.
"Oh, of course you're going to buy something for Sister Huizi. Are you planning to go there empty-handed?"
"Isn't it possible?"

Chapter 644 Children can be taught
"Oh, of course you're going to buy something for Sister Huizi. Are you planning to go there empty-handed?"
"Isn't it possible?" the boy asked.
Upon hearing this, Xiao Wuhuan took a deep breath and his face once again showed the expression of wanting to say something but not being able to, with a bit of shock and despair.
"I don't think Huizi would like this kind of politeness..." The boy realized that he had said something weird and added.
"Police Officer Baihe..."
Letting out a heavy sigh, Xiao Wuwan used such a formal address, which was rare. A strong aura suddenly emanated from her body. She slowly raised her hand and placed it on the boy's shoulder. She looked at him with a look that was almost caring, and said:
"It's only politeness to those you don't have a close relationship with, but to the one you love, it's a token of your heart, do you understand?"
"Yes, I understand." The boy felt an inexplicable sense of terrifying pressure from Kougamaru's aura, and his intuition told him that it would be better to be obedient at this time.
"Even girls who seem to care nothing about these things will be happy when they receive such a token of love from their loved ones. They won't think it's just a courtesy. Do you understand?"
"I see. Thank you for your guidance."
The boy bowed deeply to Kokarasuma.
"Well, children can be taught."
Finally, the terrifying pressure from Xiao Wuwan disappeared, and she smiled and nodded with satisfaction.
But then, she slowly shook her head and sighed, and couldn't help but complain:
"Really? How on earth did a blockhead like you manage to woo the smart, gentle and lovely Sister Keiko?"
Her words made the boy fall into deep thought.
He suddenly realized that he had never thought about this kind of question before, as if by the time he realized it, he and Huizi were already in the current relationship...
So, how did he catch up with Huizi?
The boy had no memory of the incident at all.
No, wait, wait a minute...
Is it really Huizi that he is pursuing?
Suddenly, this question popped up in the boy's mind.
He frowned slightly and lowered his head in thought.
That's not right. Thinking about it carefully, in the past, it was always Huizi who took the initiative to come to him and blocked him at the door. On the contrary, he almost never took the initiative to come...
