17)- the days goes on .

It's been a year since Akemi nee chan and shiho-chan left , now i'm 9 years old.

Doing my usual routine ,  training with yama-seinsei , learning the art of disguise with Toshi-seinsei  sometimes helping him planing for his heists . playing with my sister Ran , shinshi , and sonoko and kaito when I visit the koroba house .

Also solving  cases , but that must be classified , a 9 years old kid solving cases that the police can't solve , that will bring their reputation to the ground , so instead they got credit .

Sometime developing my hacking skills and trying to find information about them .

The only thing change is that i'm trying to skip grades I thing you're bit surprised since once I said I will act low to not attract attention  to me , well after Akemi-nee chan and shiho chan I can't keep still and do nothing .

    so now i'm planing to go to America and study there while trying to join the FBI .

When I told mom that well minus the FBI part of course ,  she immediately refused , but I keep begging her so in the end we made a deal I can't go there unless I graduated from high school , for this i'm skipping grades .

I only have 1 years to finish high they all super shocked even mom    , but  she  slowly gave up her attempt to try and stop me seeing my determination and my stubborness , i'm pretty stubborn for my own good .

So now i'm in the dojo having a match with yama -seinsei.

I swing a fist at him  aiming at his ribe ,  but he Dodged the blow .

I attacked again but this time aiming at his head . His let his  guard went up, leaving his chest wide open.

In a fraction of a second, i shoot my leg to his blind spot which made him stumbled backward barely avoiding the blow , I take the chance that he is now off - balance and kicked his leg making him on his knees  I take his arm and pressed it on his back making him fall on his chest .

" yay I win " I cheered making a victory pause .

" hahaha ." he laughted while getting up .

" you know it's only been a year  and you improved this much you don't fail in amazing me   see you finally beat me ." he said ruffling my hair .

" well i'm  juat doing my best " I said with a smile .

" humble as always ,  so you're going to America next year "

" yup only one year and I will win the deal "

I already told him about the deal I made with mom .

" are you sure about that , you're only 9 years old Rin "

" i'm not like other kids , am I ?"

" well I can't argue with you in that , you have a mature mentality for a kid "' well i'm mentally 27 years old'

" don't worry I will be fine "

" I wonder that ..."

°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°

I opened the door and entered home , I took off muy shoes .

" Tadaima .."

" okairi Rin-chan , you come just  in time  we're going for shopping " said mama.

" shopping for what ??"

" for you two don't tell me you forget tomorrow you and Ran are going with the kudo to the beach "

" oh right I forgot ..haha" I laughed nervously rubbing the back of my head .

" Mou Rin  you can't just forget important thing like that ... " and lecture goes on .

" Mom are you coming tomorrow ?" I asked her in hope that she could stop her nagging

" nope , I have an important case so I can't "

As expected it worked.

" is that so "

" now now Rin hurry up and change we are going to be late  " said mom.

" hai hai "

~ after few minutes ~

We arrived to Beika supermarket the we meet up with Yukiko-san and shinshi .

We greeted them .

" Now how about we try that shop there ?" Suggested yukiko -San .

" yes , let's go  let's begin with the kids section " said mama dragging us there .

'Let the torture begin ... At least this time i'm not the only one who will suffer ' I looked at shinshi  who turned pale after he heard that nd he looked back it's seem like he understood my gaze then we sighed together.

~ house later~

Finally the torture finished , now we are sitting in  a coffee shop and now i'm listing to shinshi talking about sharlok Holmes.

" you know when he first meet Watson he just by shaking his hand he find the he was in  Afghanistan before ..."

" yup , and also ..."

" Mou you two stop talking about shaloke Holmes that and shaloke Holmes  this " said Ran puffing her check ' cute ..' I chuckled .

" she is right you two quite talking about mysteries " said yukiko -San with a dark aura surrounding her .

" yes mam"

" that Kudo. Yusaku turning my little angles to detective geeks " she mutated darkly . mom is trying hard to calm her down

I sweat drop ' little angles?'

Then suddenly we heard a scream from the back of the restaurant I hurried and ran there .

" Rin .."

When i arrived I find a women sitting on the ground looking inside the door I followed her gaze and my eyes widened a man lying there in a pool of blood in his hand a gun  I hurried to check his pluse but there is no so he already dead .

After minutes later the police arrived .

Megu-san  yup i call him that  oh also dad come it's seem he didn't notice me .now walked and examined the corps

"   Rentaro Reji , a 31   man he is the owner of this restaurant , the cause of death a shot in the head , the estimated time of  death is at 09:00 am this room is soundproof so no one heard the gun shot , without any doupt it's a suicide "

" wrong it's not a suicide "

" Rin ?? What are you doing here ?" Snouted dad

" oh I come with mom and yukiko -San "

" what ? Kisaki is here !!!"

" i'm here is there a problem with that "asked mom walking toward us tailing behind her yukiko-san with ran and an excited shinshi .

" no no it's not like that "

" Ma ma you two " said yukiko trying to ease the atmosphere between them .

" so Rin -chan you said before that it wasn't a suicide how so ?" After megu- San said that  caught all the presence attention .

" look carfully megu-san ,his finger aren't on  the gun's  Tigger , also a small question if I want to kill my self with a gun what should I do ?"

" obviously he pointed the gun on his forehead and then .... Don't tell me "

" yeah when you fired  a gun a hot wind comes along the bullet so if we asum that the victim committed  suicide so there must be a burn mark showing up , but since there is none burn mark that's mean someone shot her " I said .

" so it's murder !!"  I nodded.

" then the suspects are this four here " shouted dad pointing at them .

After questioning the suspects :

  I walked to the corps but Something caught my attention ,' what is he holding ?'

' an earning?  So this is it I know who is killer but his alibi is perfect so how ?'.

' this is it !!'

" megu- San " I called him .

" what's wrong Rin-chan , did you find the killer .."

I nodded smirking .

" first the forensics officer said that the time of death is 09:00 am but based on the temperature of the room , could change the time of death , meaning he could be killed before that " I said facing them .

" then anyone of the three can do it right ?"

I nodded .

" ne sasaki-san can I ask you a question?"

She nodded .

" I really wonder where is your other earning"

She said  " I lost it this morning "

" really ?"
