20. Eiko Toya
Today is Wednesday, it's school time again, it's class time again, Conan sits on his seat and lies on his stomach weakly, this life... It's so uncomfortable.
But for Xiaobai, it's a time for leisure.
After class, I took out the folded sketchpad from the drawer, unfolded it, and began to sketch.
The content of the sketch is a woman in the maple leaf forest, holding her hat with her right hand, as if she is afraid of being blown away by the wind, the white long skirt, fluttering by the wind, looking into the distance with a smile on her face.
\"Xiaobai, is this what you painted?\It's so beautiful.\" After class, Ayumi and the others stood at Xiaobai's table, looking at his unfinished work.
\"yes, I didn't expect you to be able to draw, and you can do it so well.\" Mitsuhiko also stood aside and looked at the painting, sighing.
"Really, I can't see it.\" Motota looked at the painting, and couldn't really see what was wrong.
\"Hmm.\" Conan also ran over to watch when he heard the conversation between Ayumi and the others, but after watching it, he seemed to be stunned.
He seemed to see Xiaolan in a maple forest, the breeze blowing her long dress, and her eyes looked into the distance, as if waiting for something.
\"Conan, what's wrong with you?\" Genta on the side looked at Conan who was staring at the painting and asked.
\"Hehe, it's fine.it's just a little fascinated by watching.\" Conan touched the back of his head and smiled.
"Really?\" Motota looked at the painting again, but it seemed to be the same.
At this time, Xiaobai put aside the twist he was drawing, and looked at the finished painting below.
The girl stood barefoot on the beach, the setting sun shone on her, her figure was drawn long, long, and her long flowing hair fluttered in the wind.
Then I flipped it over again and took out another one.
Still a girl, sitting on the roof stretched out her right hand to count the stars in the sky, the starry sky is as beautiful as the Milky Way, and the girl's smile is so beautiful.
"Wow, the drawings are great.\" Ayumi looked at the painting with her hands crossed.
\"Hehe, it's nothing.\" Maoribai smiled and began to put the painting in order.
\"No wonder he's been running to the roof for the past two days.\But how did he draw this, and he's only 7 years old, and looking at his paintings, it will take at least a few years to have such skills.\" Conan looked at the smiling Maori Bai.
\"Xiaobai, who did you learn to draw from?\" Mitsuhiko asked as he watched Xiaobai's movements.
\"Hehe, these have been in my mind for a long time, it seems that I have learned them before.\" Xiaobai smiled and replied.
\"I see.\" Mitsuhiko and the others got an answer and nodded.
"But what a genius.\" Conan looked at the painting that hadn't been put in yet.
\"Haha, I seem to hear this sentence a lot.\" Xiaobai touched the back of his head with his right hand and said, looking a little embarrassed.
"Can't you be humble?\" Conan was speechless as he held the painting.
\"Xiaobai, can you help me draw one?\" Ayumi asked as she crossed her hands and looked at the grinning Xiaobai.
\"There's time.\I've got something to do these days.\" Xiaobai looked at Ayumi with an expectant expression and refused.
"That's it, twist up\" Ayumi heard Xiaobai's answer, and her mood was a little low.
\"Ayumi, I promise you.I'll draw it for you when I'm done.\" Xiaobai looked at the depressed Ayumi and said.
\"Hmm.\" Ayumi smiled and nodded.
\"Xiaobai.\" Motota and Mitsuhiko looked at Xiaobai.
\"Haha, haha twist\" Xiaobai looked at Yuan Tai and Mitsuhiko.It seems,What did you provoke invisibly?
\"Okay, class, let's go back to our seats.\" At this time, the bell for class rang, and Conan said to Yuanta and the others.
After school in the afternoon.
\"Uncle, we're back.\" After saying goodbye to Motota and the others on the side of the road, Conan and Xiaobai returned to the detective agency.
"Well, I'm back.\" Maori glanced at Conan and the others, and continued to watch TV.
\"Uncle, I'm out.\" Xiaobai put down his schoolbag, took out the folded drawing board and paper from it and ran out.
\"Come back early.\" Maori exclaimed as he watched TV.
\"No wonder I haven't seen him in the past two days.\" Conan looked at Xiaobai who trotted out and thought to himself.
\"Uncle, then I'm going out too.\" Conan finished speaking to Maori, holding his skateboard and trotting out.
\"Go, go, come back early.haha, Miss Yoko.\" Maori waved his hand, and then saw him holding the TV and rubbing his face against the TV.
\"Heh, heh, how old is this uncle.\" When he brought the door, Conan was speechless as he watched Maori's movements.
"It's time to go to the Doctor.\" Conan ran downstairs with his skateboard, stepping on the skateboard, and saw that the skateboard began to slowly increase speed, and under Conan's control, it drove in the direction of the Doctor.
At this time, Xiaobai was holding a sketchpad on the tram, and his destination was about to arrive, and he had already gone to that place twice, and this time it was the third time.
And his target is the fashion designer, that is, the 40-year-old Eiko Toya, who is known as Japan's premier top designer.
Ever since I saw the newspaper a few days ago that Eiko Toya's fashion show had been suspended, and I got the news that it was because a competitor had held a winter fashion similar to theirs earlier, and for him, the reborn man, he knew what she was going to do, so he had to stop her.
When I came to the vicinity of Toya's Hideko company, it was past the end of work and the flow of people was slowly decreasing, so I didn't feel crowded.
…
Soon after, I saw Eiko Toya, who was wearing high heels, carrying a bag, a gray coat on her top, and light gray leggings on her bottom, came out of the company with a heavy heart.
\"Ah...\" At this time, Xiaobai ran towards Eiko Toya, and then collided with her, and the folded sketchpad in his hand had already been unfolded.
\"Kid, are you okay?\" Eiko Toya squatted down and smiled at the child sitting on the ground in white casual clothes.
\"I'm fine.\" Maori Bai stood up and patted the dust off his body.
\"Well, it's okay.\" Eiko Toya smiled, then picked up the sketchpad that had fallen in front of her.
\"Well, this...\" as if he saw something incredible, and then flipped through page after page of drawing paper.
\"Kid, can you tell Auntie who drew this?\" Eiko Toya asked, looking at Xiaobai in front of her.
\"I'm not a child, I have a name.\" Xiaobai pouted, as if he was very dissatisfied with the name of the aunt in front of him.
\"Hehe, I was rude.\" Eiko Toya seemed to hear something incredible and smiled, this little ghost... It's so cute.
\"My name is Mori Haku, I'm 7 years old, and I painted these paintings.\" Mori Haku smiled, then pointed to the painting in Toya's hand.
"Oh?\" Eiko Toya looked at Mori Shira, as if she wanted to see through something, but she looked at the pupils in front of her who couldn't see because she was wearing glasses, and she couldn't seem to see through anything.
\"Auntie is called Eiko Toya, you can call me Aunt Eiko.\" It seems that I can only see the child in front of me smiling all the time, and that sunny smile drives away the worry and anxiety in her heart.
\"Aunt Yingzi?\" Xiaobai was puzzled.
\"Well, it's okay to call me Aunt Eiko, your name is Mori Haku, right?, and your name reminds me of a girl, the girl with a sunny breath.\" Eiko Toya said, looking up as if thinking about something.
"Goo..." There was a sound.
\"Are you hungry?Why don't you take Aunt Yingzi to eat something nearby?\" Yingzi smiled and stood up with her sketchpad.
\"Hehe, I forgot to eat when I came out.\I didn't bring much money.\" Xiaobai smiled embarrassedly.
\"It's okay, you don't have to pay, this is Aunt Yingzi invited you.\" Yingzi squatted down and pinched Xiaobai's face.
"However, the teacher taught me not to eat with strangers casually.however, I believe that Aunt Yingzi is a good person.\" After Xiaobai finished speaking, he stepped forward and took Toya Yingzi's hand.
\"Hehe, it's such a cute child.\" Eiko Toya said while holding a drawing board in one hand and holding Mori Hakuro in the other.
\"Of course I'm cute.\" Xiaobai looked at Eiko Toya and said with a cute smile, the little dimples were exposed, and that smile was so innocent.
In the restaurant.
"Kid, what do you want to eat?" asked Eiko Toya, putting her sketchpad aside, to Shiro.
\"I'm not a child, I'm called Maori Bai.\" Xiaobai looked to the side with his hands in his arms and pouted, as if to express his dissatisfaction.
\"Hehe.\" Eiko Toya looked at Maori Shiro, and she didn't know why, but she seemed to be a lot happier.
\"So... Maori Bai children, what do you want to eat?\" Eiko Toya held her chin and looked at Maori Bai.
\"It's all said, my name is Mori Haku.\" Mori Haku continued to pout and not look at Eiko Toya.
\"Well, I'm surrendering, little white... It's okay to call it that, right?\" Eiko Toya smiled as she held her chin.
\"Well, no problem, I'm going to eat egg fried rice.\" Mori Hakuro turned his head to look at Eiko Toya, then raised his right hand and said loudly.
Subsequently, after some egg fried rice and sushi were served, Xiaobai picked up the soup spoon and began to eat egg fried rice.
\"Xiaobai, who painted this picture?\" Eiko Toya asked as she ate sushi as she looked at the drawing board next to her.
"Well, I drew it myself.\" Xiaobai replied vaguely while eating fried rice.
\"It's not good to be a deceitful child.\" Eiko Toya turned her head to look at Shiro, as if she didn't believe that the painting was drawn by the child in front of her.
\"I'm not lying, my teacher can say I'm a genius.\" Xiaobai stopped his activity and looked at Eiko Toya and said.
\"Oh, is it?\" Eiko Toya looked at the serious Mori Shiro, as if pondering the truth of this sentence.
However, Xiaobai continued to pick up the egg fried rice on the plate, seemingly ignoring her directly.
\"Hehe, Xiaobai, can I take these paintings back?\" Eiko Toya said, looking at the paintings on the drawing board.
\"Don't say I forgot, I'm here to get ingredients.\" Maori Bai finished eating the egg fried rice on the plate, and seemed to remember what he was here for.
\"Oh, can you let Aunt Eiko take a look at it?\" Eiko Toya said as she looked at Mori Haku in front of her.
\"Well, but don't bother me.\" Maori Bai nodded with his hands in his arms.
\"Hehe.\" Eiko Toya looked at the big Mori Bai in front of her, and couldn't help but smile.
After settling the bill, the time was close to 6 o'clock.The sun had set, and Eiko Toya accompanied Mori Shiro to a bush, Mori Bai sat cross-legged and looked at the street lamp not far away, then put the sketchpad on his knees, pouted and put the pen on the corner of his mouth, and held his chin to think about something.
And Eiko Toya on the side also sat beside him, looking at Maori Bai without saying a word.
As a few minutes passed, Maori Bai began to write.
With the sound of rustling, a street lamp not far away appeared on the paper.Then a girl appeared, the girl was wearing a long gray linen sweater, wearing a black scarf and hat, with black jeans on her lower body, and a white boot under her feet. Snow.
A painting only took about 40 minutes, and Eiko Toya on the side was already stunned. There are no words to describe it, but it feels like if he is given time, he can become the world's premier painter and fashion designer.
Looking at the clothes of the four seasons of the year, and the girl's talkative eyes, Eiko Toya seemed to fall into it.
Looking at the painting carefully, she seemed to be fascinated and fell into it, seemed to see the girl's smiling expression, saw the girl's matching clothes, all these matches, the matching of the four seasons, everything seemed to give her a lot of inspiration, so that the little hatred in her heart slowly disappeared.
Maori Bai looked at Eiko Toya, no, it should be Aunt Eiko.
Looking at her obsessed expression, she also smiled.In his previous life, when he was a killer, he did assassination, blasting, protecting targets, etc., and he was indeed a genius, he learned painting in his leisure, for him, everything that was constructed by the pictures was so real. Just as he once said to the old man Ochiai, painting has the soul of the painter in it, and only when the painting has the soul is a beautiful painting.
As he once said to himself, life is long and short, and it is also the same as a classic sentence in the sketch.
So he cherishes his time, no matter when, even if it's learning to cook, painting, music, everything, he will learn very wholeheartedly, just because it can make him relax. Let everyone know that there is such a person, because the people he contacts don't know who he is, only that he is his friend, and there is no need to ask anything between friends, do they?
\"You can trust me now.\" Xiaobai spread his hands and looked at Yingzi who was staring at the painting.
\"Xiaobai, you're such a genius.No, genius can't describe you anymore.Or... I can't find any words to describe you... It's not a compliment, it's true, it's almost no one at your age.\" Eiko looked at Maoribai and smiled and praised.
\"Hehe, it's not that exaggerated.\" Maoribai touched the back of his head, looking embarrassed.
\"Oh no, it's not early.Aunt Yingzi, I have to go home.\" Xiaobai looked at the sky that was slowly revealing the white moonlight, put the drawing board on the ground, stood up and rubbed his sour shoulders and thighs.
\"Then Auntie will send you.\" Yingzi also stood up.
\"Hehe, no need, Aunt Eiko, I'll be careful.I'll give you these paintings, I'll go first, see you next time.\" Maorihaku took down all the paintings on the drawing board and gave them to Eiko Toya, and before she could reply, he was already trotting away.
\"This kid...\" Eiko Toya looked at the slowly disappearing figure, looked at the picture in her hand, and smiled as well.
And the next day, the newspaper published the news that Toya Eiko's secretary Taniguchi Mika had been fired, and the gossip was because Taniguchi Mika sold Toya's clothing design to a competing company, although Taniguchi Mika has always denied it, but surprisingly, Toya Eiko just smiled and did not give any explanation.
Later, because of Mika Taniguchi's reputation, many companies did not recruit her, so she had no choice but to go abroad and disappeared in this city.
And Eiko Toya invited Mori Lan to come to the company as a model this weekend after firing Mika Taniguchi, and her new clothes have been designed, among them, there are four pieces painted by Mori Bai, and the rest are inspired by the painting to redesign many pieces, but now that it is completed, only the four pieces of Mori Bai, maybe for her, these four pieces are worn on the body of the girl with a sunny smile, maybe it is really beautiful.
That girl, a healthy and physically healthy girl...
