Saturday, April 25th, noon, a small restaurant next to the Queen Hotel Izu Beach.

As soon as Mori left, Takakako Toda, Harumi Matsuzaki, Masahiko Matsuzaki, Kunio Kawazu, and Ito Yoshi returned.

Masahiko Matsuzaki asked, "Hey, what about the Maori detective and the concubine?"

"They went back first. Yamazaki said, "We're going to leave too, thank you for your hospitality." ”

"Wait," Takako Toda said to Yamazaki, "Thank you for your kindness, I'm sorry just now." Then he looked at Matsuzaki Masahiko and smiled, "It was just a test for Masahiko, and I never felt that he was nervous, so I wanted to try him, and I was really happy to see this landlubber rushing into the sea with a nervous face." ”

"It's a test again. Lan muttered through gritted teeth.

"What's wrong with her?" asked Harumi Matsuzaki.

"Nothing. Yamazaki smiled, "Okay, goodbye, guys." ”……

Soon after, in a booth in the lobby of the Empress Hotel.

Lan asked Yuanzi and Mei Daizi, "You say, is Dad deliberately sabotage, he said that Mom accidentally dropped the ring, and at the same time said that Mom was deliberately testing him." ”

"This, I think Auntie just accidentally dropped her wedding ring, and then simply took the opportunity to test Uncle, who called Uncle there for evil deeds were seen by Auntie, but definitely not intentionally tested. "And when the uncle found out that the aunt's wedding ring was not on his hand, didn't he immediately look for it?" ”

"I agree," said Midaiko, "but I don't know if Uncle did it on purpose." Then he asked, "Brother?"

"Don't ask me, I don't know about this kind of thing. Yamazaki smiled bitterly.

"Alright," Ran said, and then said to Sonoko and Midako, "then, let's discuss the next plan." ”

"Well, you talk, I'll go around. Yamazaki said.

"I'll go too. Conan said.

Yamazaki and Conan then fight to decide who would go back to the RV to do their homework for an hour, typing the records of the events of the previous Maori detective agency on their laptops, and Conan lost. ……

Just after one o'clock in the afternoon, the beach outside the Empress Hotel.

Yamazaki found a remote and uninhabited place, put up a parasol, laid down on a blanket, and took a nap.

I don't know how long later, Yamazaki was woken up by the sound of footsteps, sat up and looked, and found that it was Harumi Matsuzaki who he had just met, and then picked up the mobile phone next to him and looked at it, just right, and slept for about half an hour.

Seeing that Harumi Matsuzaki lowered her head and didn't know what she was thinking, Yamazaki reminded loudly, "Hi, Miss Harumi." He said

"Ahh As he spoke, he looked around a little nervously, and at the same time unconsciously pressed his left hand on the bag around his waist.

"Uncle is not here. Yamazaki said, then looked at Harumi Matsuzaki with a relieved look and asked, "Can I ask ...... you have in your bag?"

"No, nothing. Harumi Matsuzaki hurriedly said, "I don't have anything in my bag." ”

"Okay, I see. Yamazaki smiled, "You can use this place." ”

"You know, you know?" asked Harumi Matsuzaki.

"Miss Harumi, you must know that Miss Kiwako wants to test your brother, so you want to take the opportunity to sabotage their marriage, right? You originally wanted to avoid the Maori detectives, and wanted Miss Kiwako to test your brother again tomorrow, but she didn't agree, but then you didn't dare to do it, so what you prepared is useless, you came to this remote and uninhabited place to destroy this thing. Yamazaki asked, "Did I guess right?"

Harumi Matsuzaki was silent for a moment and said, "Actually, I didn't bring it with me at the time, otherwise it would ......"

"If your behavior is also a test, doesn't that mean that your brother and Miss Kiwako have passed your test?" Yamazaki laughed, "You should be happy for them." ”

"Masahiko is not my own brother," Harumi Matsuzaki recalled as she looked at the sea, "When I was a sophomore in high school, I remember that it was just when the domestic economy began to slump, maybe I couldn't bear the poverty after unemployment, and my mother was introduced to marry Mr. Matsuzaki, whose wife died of illness, and I lived with my remarried mother in Matsuzaki's house, and then I met Masahiko, and I always remember the first time I met Masahiko, his smile that warmed people's hearts." You may not know that an ordinary girl from a single-parent family like me is the object of neglect in school and in life, because she doesn't even have enough pocket money to make friends. ”

"Uh, that ......" Yamazaki noticed that Takawako Toda was coming over and wanted to remind Harumi Matsuzaki out loud.

"Listen to me," said Harumi Matsuzaki, "and I may never say these things to anyone again for the rest of my life." Then he said, "When I was helpless, Masahiko appeared like this, so I fell in love with him like this. But Masahiko will always have a Kiwako by his side, so I keep this emotion in my heart. What I didn't expect was that they suddenly got engaged, and then they were going to get married again, and the most ridiculous thing was that Kiwako actually told me that she couldn't feel Masahiko's love for her, and wanted to use drowning to test my landlubber brother, since I don't trust Masahiko's brother, then what else is there to marry, this test is over, there will definitely be a next time, this kind of thing has always been endless, so, in my opinion, Guihezi she is not worthy of Masahiko brother at all. And Kiwako probably didn't know, but every time she told me how Masahiko was doing, I felt so angry, as if she was sarcastically saying to me, 'You don't know anything about Masahiko's affairs,' so I prepared a sea snake for her. Although I will make Masayhiko sad by doing this, I will try to soothe his heart and comfort him with my love. Then he sighed, "But it's useless to say anything now." Then he saluted Yamazaki and said, "Thank you, sir, for listening to me say so many things that I don't know." ”

"You're welcome. Yamazaki said, then put away his phone and began to pack up the blanket.

"Thank you also for letting me know how stupid I am, thank you, Harumi. Takazuko Toda said out loud.

Hearing Takazuko Toda's voice, Harumi Matsuzaki was immediately taken aback, and her face turned pale all of a sudden, "Kiwako, Kiwako!" she said and turned her head to look.

"I'm sorry, Harumi, I really didn't know what you were thinking before, and I hurt you inadvertently, I'm sorry. Takazuko Toda said, "For the test of Masahiko, I think about it now, it is indeed a stupid thing, thank you for reminding me, in order to prevent me from doing such stupid things in the future, Harumi, you are welcome to supervise me." ”

"Huh?" Harumi Matsuzaki was taken aback.

"I mean, you're welcome to stay with us, if you don't mind. Takazuko Toda said with a smile.

"But why is that?" asked Harumi Matsuzaki.

"Do you want us to fight for the rest of our lives and make Masahiko uneasy?" asked Takazuko Toda rhetorically.

"Expensive, noble and son. Harumi Matsuzaki blushed a little and shouted in surprise.

"But first, I'll find a way to find your partner and get you to move out voluntarily. Takako Toda smiled, "To be honest, there are many people who are better than Masahiko, and I only married him because I was used to being with his childhood sweetheart." ”

"Oh, really?" Harumi Matsuzaki asked with a smile, "Then it's okay if I tell him this?"

"Ah, it doesn't work. Takazuko Toda hurriedly said, and then asked, "You won't say that, will you?"

"It depends on the mood. Harumi Matsuzaki smiled.

"Ah, Matsumi, how can you do this?" said Takawako Toda with a smile, "Okay, how about I invite you to visit the store?" With that, he pulled Harumi Matsuzaki and left.

However, after a while, the two returned, and Harumi Matsuzaki untied her belt bag and took out a sea snake.

"Is it really okay to release them like this?" asked Takazuko Toda.

"No problem, this sea snake generally doesn't attack people. Harumi Matsuzaki said, then put the sea snake into the sea, and then went away with Takawako Toda.

After that, Yamazaki rolled up the clean blankets, then put away the parasols, took them and left. ……

Lobby of the Empress Hotel.

After returning the blanket and parasol, Yamazaki went around and looked around, and found that Ran, Sonoko, and Midaiko were no longer there, and asked the waiters, and learned that they had gone to the store, so he went back to the car.

Conan asks Yamazaki where Ran is, and when he finishes his work, he goes to look for her.

It's more than three o'clock in the afternoon, on the RV.

Ran, Sonoko, Mei Daiko, and Conan came back with some shell ornaments, and then Ran went to pull up Maori, who didn't want to leave yet, and everyone set out on their way home.

On the way, Ran, Sonoko, and Mei Daizi go to the bedroom of the RV to continue to make a "battle plan", and finally Lan decides on a new dating excuse.

"Then find a restaurant that makes sense and let them eat a meal from the past. Yuan Zi smiled, "This will definitely make them regain their old feelings." ”

"Well, I think it's a good idea. Mei Daiko said.

"Okay, that's it. Lan said. ……

Evening, Maori home.

Lan didn't go to Mei Dai Restaurant to help, but stayed at home to flip through the photo album, spent more than two hours, and finally found a suitable place, and then happily called Fei Yingli, and asked tentatively: "Mom, your date with Dad?"

"Don't mention him to me. "Fei Yingli is obviously not angry yet.

"But Daddy helped you find the ring, and you said you were going to go on a date with him. Lan said, "You can't talk nonsense, you're a lawyer, Mom." ”

"Okay, okay. Fei Yingli said helplessly, "Wait until I arrange the time......"

"No, I'm here this time, it's tomorrow, it's just a dinner in Rice Flower Town, it won't take much time. Lan said, "Rice Flower Western Restaurant." ”

"Oh, is that the French restaurant?" said Fei Yingli, "all right. ”

"Great," said Lan happily, "then it's settled, we'll see you there at six o'clock tomorrow evening." ”

"Okay, so be it. After Fei Yingli finished speaking, she hung up the phone.

Lan hung up the phone, then called the restaurant to reserve a table, order dishes, and make an appointment with the waiter back then. ……

The next day, Sunday, April 26, before 5:40 a.m., Maori House, Ran's bedroom.

Lan was sweating profusely and woke up from his sleep, "It turned out to be a dream, it's really good." ”

However, Lan was still a little afraid, so she went to the living room to call Fei Yingli.

On the other side, a good mood, Fei Yingli's house, bedroom.

Fei Yingli was woken up by the phone, picked it up and saw that it was the Maori family, and answered the phone helplessly, "Please, Lan, when is this?" ”

Lan said: "People just had a dream and want to hear their mother's voice." ”

"Oh, you're having a nightmare?" asked Fei Yingli.

"Well," Ran said, "I dreamed that my mother was shot. ”

"Gun?" Fei Yingli was taken aback.

"That's why I'm worried, if you're a lawyer, you'll have enemies. Lan said, then smiled, "It's great that you're okay." ”

"You're thinking too much, Lan," Fei Yingli smiled, "It must be that you and that guy have experienced too many events, and you will have that kind of dream every day, how about it, come and live with me." ”

"I don't want it, so you should come to me. Lan smiled, and then said, "By the way, my mother in the dream is younger than now." ”

"Ah, what are these words," Fei Yingli pretended to be angry and laughed, "I'm also very young now." ”

"Yes, yes, I was wrong," Lan smiled, "I'm really sorry, please bear with me." ”

"It's good that you know. Fei Yingli said with a smile.

"I'll see you at seven o'clock that evening," said Ran, "and Daddy and Conan are looking forward to it." ”

"I see. Fei Yingli said, then hung up the phone, then sat up, was distracted for a moment, then lifted the nightgown, looked at the scar on the left thigh, touched it, and muttered, "It seems that the kid still remembers." ”……

On the other side, the Maori home, the Maori bedroom.

Conan was woken up by the sound of Lan cleaning up his chores, and yawned, "Really, even if you have dinner at night, you don't have to get up so early." But when I got up, I didn't want to sleep, so I went to wash.

Conan had eaten a Western-style breakfast, and thought of his homework of entering the events of the Maori detective agency into his computer, so he went to Dr. Asasa's house. ……

Before evening, Maori home.

When Conan returned, he found Uncle Maori getting dressed, so he asked, "Isn't Uncle Ready?"

Lan said angrily: "He ran out to play mahjong at noon, and he just got home." ”

Maori said, "Really, why do you have to eat with Yingli." ”

"I've ordered a meal and I'm not preparing dinner. Lan said, "If you want, stay and go hungry." Then he said to Conan, who was snickering, "Conan, what are you doing, why don't you hurry up and change your clothes." ”

"Yes, yes, I'll go. Conan said. ……

At six o'clock in the evening, Rice Flower Western Restaurant in Rice Flower Town Commercial Street.

After entering the door, Lan looked at Fei Ying, who was already waiting there, and said, "Mom, I'm sorry, we're a little late." ”

Fei Yingli said angrily: "No way, anyway, it must be because someone went to play mahjong until late." ”

"What a couple. Conan muttered.

"Good evening, Conan. Fei Yingli said.

"Ahh ”

At this time, a middle-aged man in his thirties came in with two women in his arms, "Yo, isn't this a Maori detective? I haven't seen you for a long time, I don't know if the technology has improved, and I really can't reach the level of a camera lens with a ball." ”

"It's Mr. Tsuji. Maori laughed, "You're not kidding." Then he asked, "I heard that you will be going to the United States in a few days to participate in the competition, what?"

"I've been practicing for this competition this year, so it's important to relax. Mr. Tsuji smiled, "By the way, I'll be flying a helicopter in two days, so let's come along." ”

"Don't, don't be kidding, okay. Maori smiled helplessly.

"That's a shame. Mr. Tsuji laughed, then laughed again, "Well, I wish you a nice dinner." As he spoke, he led the two women to the private room.

Seeing the two women ask Mr. Tsuji, is Maori a detective Maori Kogoro, why does he seem to be afraid of making helicopters, and Mr. Tsuji said that Maori actually has a fear of heights, which caused the two women to laugh, Fei Yingli frowned and asked Maori, "Who do you know?"

"His name is Hiroki Tsuji, and he is a professional golfer who met at a golf club held in the town last time, and they have had drinks together a few times since then. "It's just a joke." ”

"Alright, let's go eat. Lan pulled Maori and Fei Yingli away one by one.

Soon after, a table by the window.

"Here," Fei Yingli said with a smile, "Lan, you did it on purpose. He stood in front of his chair.

"Dad. Lan said.

The Maori gentleman's helper, Youngli, pulled out a chair and sat her down.

The four of them had just sat down, and a waiter in his thirties, wearing a bunch of grape ornaments on his chest and a wine tasting device around his neck, was pushing the food cart to serve the food.

"You are, Mr. Sawaki. Fei Yingli smiled, "I can't imagine it." Then he said, "Looks like you're already a full-fledged taster." ”

"Sister Lan, is he?" Conan asked Lan.

"Mr. Sawaki, the waiter who served his parents back then, is now a famous sommelier," Lan whispered, "Mr. Sawaki knew that this was a dinner specially prepared for his parents, so I was invited, and some of these dishes were recommended by him." ”

Mori took the sake that Sawaki poured and tasted it, "This bottle seems to be pretty good." ”

"Lan, this is also what you chose?" Fei Yingli asked.

"Of course, this is the wine I chose on purpose, and it happens to be the wine that was stored that day. Lan laughed.

"It's really heartfelt. Fei Yingli smiled, then looked at Maori and said, "But what should I say, seeing this bottle of wine means that we are really old." ”

"That's right. Maori laughed.

"It looks like the atmosphere is good. Lan smiled and muttered to himself.

In a pleasant atmosphere, the four began their dinner.

After eating almost, Fei Yingli wiped her mouth, "The taste of the dishes here has not changed as before." ”

"But the wine is more mellow. Maori raised his glass and laughed.

Fei Yingli smiled and raised her glass to touch Maori, took a sip, and then smiled: "Hey, do you remember, when the two of us first came here, you gave me a gift." ”

"I remember it was Quicobar. Maori recalled.

Fei Yingli smiled: "Then when we went home, we sat on the bench in Rice Flower Park and ate it. ”

"yes. Maori smiled, and then inadvertently noticed that outside the window, a woman in her thirties and a man got out of a car, and exclaimed in surprise, "Miss Towako, that man is ......."

Conan took a look and said, "Peter Ford, a TV presenter. ”

Maori leaned over the window and looked out the window, "Damn, even if it's an interview, you don't have to go to dinner together." ”

Fei Yingli asked, "Who is that Miss Towako?"

Lan said: "Dad said that he was the owner of a restaurant. ”

"Yes, I'm often cared for by her. The Maori head didn't say either.

Fei Yingli said: "I'm sorry, I went first. He stood up.

"Huh?" Lan hurriedly said, "Isn't it still early, let's go have a cup of coffee at home." ”

"I'm sorry, but I have work to do tomorrow. Fei Yingli said, "Thank you for arranging dinner." With that, he grabbed his bag and left.

"Mommy, Mommy. Lan hurriedly shouted, and then saw that Fei Ying didn't answer her, and went to call Maori again, but Maori ignored her.

"Really, how could this be. Lan exclaimed angrily. ……
