Chapter 12: The Creature of Uncle
I once remembered a sentence in a primary school textbook: Time flies, the sun and the moon fly by. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Uncle didn't understand it before, but now uncle ......
Still a little bit incomprehensible.
I don't feel like time flies, but I feel like I'm spending my days.
is mainly confused about the future, confused about the future, so that he doesn't know how to deal with himself.
He is not like Conan, a primary school student, who has a father of a well-known novelist and a mother of a well-known actress, who does not worry about food or clothing.
Every time he looked at the numbers on the passbook, the uncle sighed, it would be good if he crossed over to that kid and became a rich second generation.
But there is no way around it.
People cannot choose their origins, but they can choose their own path.
So for such words, the uncle can only roll his eyes.
The road is taken first by the rich and powerful, and how many people can squeeze it on? Even if you squeeze in, how much will be left?
You must know that in these years, even the road to hell is already overcrowded.
That's what you say, but as long as you don't die, you still have to live.
So in order to relieve the boredom in his heart, the uncle instructed the elementary school students to do this and that.
Like running errands, tidying up the house, or whatever.
I was even thinking about whether I should let elementary school students change into women's clothes, and then contact some uncles with special fetishes and ask him to go to work for some pocket money or something.
And maybe I'll bend him so that I won't be haunted by Xiaolan.
This idea is simply killing two birds with one stone, both to get the money and to protect Xiaolan.
It seems that the daughter has really inherited this point.
However, the uncle is not conscious of this, he is just thinking about the feasibility of this idea, and his eyes are always with some inexplicable meaning when he looks at the elementary school students.
This makes elementary school students always feel that there is an inexplicable chill from time to time.
But he didn't know what the uncle was thinking, he just thought about whether it was because the weather was getting colder, so he needed to add a few more clothes.
Well, anyway, the uncle is just thinking about it, and he won't really do anything to him.
I sat in the office for another day and didn't come to work.
Under such circumstances, I don't know how long it will take to become a detective.
The current uncle is gearing up to wait for the case to come to the door, and then show his skills.
successfully resolved the two cases, although the second one was not his own reasoning, but it was basically consistent with his reasoning, so it can be regarded as his solution.
Being able to solve these two cases made the uncle's self-confidence begin to swell.
Well, many times this is the case, when you don't do it, you feel that you can't do it, and when you start to do it and have certain results, you will feel that maybe you can become the best of it.
That's the situation of Uncle now.
Maybe he does have the talent to be a detective, but whether he can do it well or not is not necessarily.
People, many times, have to be self-aware.
However, this may be the reasoning ability inherited from the original Mori Kogoro, just as he didn't smoke or drink much alcohol before he crossed over.
Now, I sit there and smoke and drink when I have nothing to do.
The most drunk time should be at night.
Although I had already eaten dinner, when I was watching TV, I still sat there with beer and snacks, eating and drinking and watching TV, and from time to time I shouted a few words for Yoko Okino who appeared on TV.
At first glance, it seems that there is no difference between him and Mori Kogoro.
Although the uncle is Maori Kogoro.
"Dad, don't drink so much, you can only drink two cans tonight."
Xiaolan frowned and pouted, indicating that she was unhappy.
Uncle drinks at home all day and doesn't clean up, either waiting for her to clean up or asking Conan to clean up.
This is indeed something to be angry about.
But even if you pout and get angry, it's so cute.
The uncle looked at Xiaolan, and liked this titular daughter a little more for no reason.
So Uncle is a very magical creature, just like Lori.
Uncles can be very mature or very naïve.
The same goes for Lori, which can be understood as very naïve, but what she says is often the most true.
However, forget about the pseudo-uncle and pseudo-Lori.
"Two cans is too little, at least five."
The uncle raised his hand and held out a slap.
In fact, even if it is five cans, it is nothing.
I don't know why, after the crossing, drinking alcohol doesn't seem to be much different from drinking water.
At least the uncle hasn't been drunk so far.
"Five cans won't work, three cans at most."
"Four cans."
"No, three and a half cans at most."
“……”
The uncle blinked and looked at Xiaolan.
Can you still drink half a can? What about the remaining half can? Poured? Thrown? Or is it for someone else to drink?
Anyway, the uncle thinks he can't understand.
Xiaolan also reacted, and the expression on her face stiffened slightly.
After being silent for a while, he stood up again and went to do housework.
It's a give-up.
The uncle scratched his head, indicating that he didn't understand.
But since Xiaolan doesn't care, he is also happy that he can drink two more cans tonight.
However, Xiaolan quickly reminded at the beginning.
"Dad, drink less, go to bed early tonight, you're going to the wedding tomorrow, right?"
"Got it, got it."
The uncle waved his hand without looking back.
I went to the wedding, and it was because I received an invitation from an old friend, an old friend of Kogoro Maori.
Since the other party has been invited, and I have just solved two cases recently, I still have a lot of money, so I decided to go over and participate.
It just so happens that you can also go to meet old friends, although for the uncle, it should be the first time to meet.
But that was later, and now, it's still important to drink and watch TV.
For the uncle's indifferent attitude, Xiaolan can only be helpless.
Anyway, there's nothing she can do, she can't clench her fist and smash it over, right?
Although this can solve the problem, such a solution really can't be used casually.
So in the end, I just muttered and complained and went to wash up and get ready to rest.
Uncle will stay up late, she won't.
And the uncle continues to drink and watch TV, life is so comfortable.
With such a comfortable life, I couldn't help but hum a little tune.
"Betraying my love and forcing me to leave ......"
……
So the next day.
The uncle who stayed up late got up late without any suspense.
I hurriedly packed my things, and I didn't even have time to eat breakfast, so I ran to the station.
I waited until I got on the Shinkansen train and breathed a sigh of relief.
Xiaolan naturally complained all the way about this, obviously she had said it last night.
It seems that for a creature like an uncle, I really can't expect it.
Touching my chin, I feel a little scumbag.
The uncle took out a small mirror and looked at it, his beard was scumbag, and he looked a little sleep-deprived.
Such an image is indeed not suitable for a wedding.
Take out the electric shaver and slowly start repairing it.
Anyway, there is still some time on the way, so it will be good to catch up on sleep here later.
That being said, Xiaolan's complaint is not fake.
"No one would shave themselves on the Shinkansen on the day of a friend's wedding."
"Isn't that because of work? I was thinking about work last night, and if I wasn't careful, it was too late! ”
Uncle explained.
However, this is lying with an open eye.
Xiaolan naturally knows it, but she doesn't bother to talk about him now.
However, the uncle quickly changed the topic.
"After all, I just decided to go alone, so why did you come along?"
"It's held in Kyoto, so I'd like to see it."
It's a rare trip, and Xiaolan also wants to go with her.
In the past, there really weren't many opportunities to go out and play.
I don't know if I should say that the former Maori Kogoro is not angry or what.
But Xiaolan can understand it.
"Why does this kid have to follow?"
The uncle looked at the Conan elementary school student who was sitting next to Xiaolan eating a bento.
Conan, who found that he seemed to be the center of the discussion, stopped eating and looked at his uncle with his mouth slightly open.
It's hard to say how Conan is in a mood, but the uncle is a little upset anyway.
It's okay to eat and drink at home, but now I go with him to eat and drink, what is this? It's so ......
What's that.
