Chapter 87: Meeting and Getting to Know People
Two days later, in the evening, Lin Xinyi rented a high-end apartment.
When night fell, Lin Xinyi hurried home after work.
He had a very comfortable two days.
There are no homicides, I go to work on time every day, and I leave work on time.
Even the cold Miss Miyano somehow restrained her temperament and didn't put on a face in front of him.
It would be nice if life could go on so peacefully.
Standing in the elevator home, Lin Xinyi thought thoughtlessly.
When the elevator reaches the 25th floor, he can walk a few more steps and then go back to his home, change out of his coat and lie down on the sofa...
Finally, I took out the snacks and drinks packed back from the company canteen and salted the fish.
No need to work overtime, generous salary, free time, and calm every day, this is the new life that Lin Xinyi is looking forward to after crossing.
Unexpectedly, with the current identity of the crime boss and part-time management officer, he can still realize his dream.
"The only task Gin has given me now is to be a good cop."
"And recently, there hasn't even been a case that requires me to intervene, and the salary of the police is simply earned for nothing."
"Speaking of which, compared to the other day..."
"Since I got away from Kudo, it seems like the whole of Tokyo has been peaceful."
Lin Xinyi couldn't help but think of his old friend Kudo, the detective who brought his own commission.
At this time, the elevator reached the 25th floor where his house was located.
Lin Xinyi stepped out of the elevator and walked home with a familiar car.
Then, before he could open the door, a very familiar voice came from the corridor:
"Wow! 25th floor! β
Lin Xinyi's expression froze.
This kind of Lori anchor who can only show his face with 100,000 fans, with a milky voice and a strange tone of pretending to be childish, sounds like Conan.
"yes, the view is awesome!"
Lin Xinyi's face fell.
This kind of young female voice that is as gentle and clear as a trickle is obviously Maolilan.
Conan (Kudo), and Mao Lilan, in the memory of Lin Shinichi... The two of them are basically black and white impermanence, bull head and horse face.
When these two appeared in front of him at the same time, there were no immortals.
But... This is my home!
I just want to stay at home and watch TV quietly, how did you find here?
Lin Xinyi's mood was very delicate, but at this time, the god of death had already noticed him:
"Lin?!" Conan looked at him with some surprise.
"Huh?" Mao Lilan also noticed him: "Mr. Lin?!" β
She was very surprised on her face, but a good tutor still made her react quickly:
"Conan, how can you call Mr. Lin Shinichi in such a tone?"
Like a patient and responsible old mother, Mao Lilan always pays attention to Conan's ideological education:
"Mr. Lin Xinyi is my friend, you should call him brother."
"Uh..."Conan was slightly stunned, immediately squeezed out a smile, pinched his throat, and shouted to Lin Xinyi again: "Brother Xinyi~"
Lin Xinyi: "......"
It seems that Conan's children have perfectly integrated into his current age.
He was called out by Conan and his scalp tingled, and Maolilan asked him curiously:
"Mr. Lin Xinyi, why are you here?"
Lin Xinyi pointed to the door in front of him, and said with a strange expression: "My family lives here." β
"Huh? Mr. Lin Shinichi, did you originally live in a floor with Miss Yoko? β
Maolilan's mouth opened slightly in surprise.
"Miss Yoko... Who is it? Lin Xinyi was confused.
"It's Miss Yoko Okino, the hottest idol singer right now!"
"I don't know." Lin Xinyi shook his head indifferently.
He didn't know a few female celebrities, and he could barely remember the name... Most of them have something to do with the FBI.
What's more, this is still a female star from another world.
"Don't know?!"
Hearing Lin Xinyi say such a thing, an uncle with an exaggerated expression suddenly flashed next to him.
He was wearing a decent suit, with a delicate beard, and he looked like a mature man.
But at this time, this mature uncle, like an immature young man in the rice circle, felt extremely sad about Lin Xinyi's "loneliness":
"You don't even know about a popular idol like Miss Yoko."
"Young man, are you really living in the Heisei era?"
It was Maori Kogoro who spoke, Maori Lan's father.
"Hey, hey... The world is so big, it's normal that I don't know it. β
Lin Xinyi didn't know why this uncle was so anxious to line up with him.
But Mori Kogoro quickly let him know the answer:
"Miss Yoko, this kid is too uninformed."
He turned his head and looked at the beautiful woman beside him with long, dazzling golden curls and blue eyes.
It turns out that Yoko Okino, the popular idol he admires, is now by his side.
That's why this uncle is in a hurry to show his love as a fan in front of his idol.
"It's okay... I'm not well-known yet, and it's normal that people don't know me. β
"Still, thank you, Mr. Maori, for thinking so highly of me."
Yoko Okino does have the demeanor of a first-line idol, not only acting very kindly to passers-by who don't know her, but also comforting her loyal fans by the way.
Maori Kogoro burst out laughing.
Then, I don't know what came to mind... He suddenly deliberately put on a personable detective posture in front of his idol, and carefully analyzed Lin Xinyi:
"Boy, it's time for you to get in touch with society."
"Take a look... Although you are wearing a formal suit and leather shoes, you don't even have the essential briefcase for office workers. β
"Look at the plastic bag you're carrying, it's full of takeaway boxes and bottled drinks..."
"If I'm not mistaken, you're probably the kind of old NEET who can't find a job after graduation and stays at home, and only goes out to buy bento drinks when he eats, right?"
"Alas... It's not going to go on like this. β
"You're completely out of touch with society, that's why you don't even know Miss Yoko!"
Yes, Mori Kogoro has used the necessary skill of all detectives since the time of Sherlock Holmes - meeting people.
And after saying this impeccable reasoning, Mori Kogoro's eyes already flashed with wisdom.
He was waiting, waiting for Lin Shinichi to be impressed by his reasoning, waiting for Miss Yoko to look at him with admiration.
Lin Xinyi: "......"
Conan tugged at the corners of his mouth a little helplessly, and Maoliran's face was full of embarrassment.
And Lin Xinyi didn't defend himself, but just helplessly pointed out the flaws in the other party's reasoning:
"That, uncle... Isn't it too simple to rely on this clue to infer that I am a vagrant? β
"Can't I just get off work and come back with a packed dinner?"
"Hahaha!"
Maori Kogoro looked up to the sky and laughed:
"It seems that you really haven't had a serious job!"
"Look at your watch, what time is it?"
"Six o'clock..."Lin Xinyi looked puzzled.
"At this point, I want to go home from work, and I still have time to buy dinner on the road...."
"Young man, do you have any misunderstanding about our company?"
Maori Kogoro's expression was very firm:
Lin Xinyi is wearing a suit and tie, if he is really an office worker, he is most likely a corporate white-collar worker.
Now Heisei has just made its head, and there is still a legacy of Showa in society.
For young white-collar workers in this era...
996 is an aperitif, and 007 is a bit of energy.
Staying up all night is commonplace, and sudden death from overwork is glorious.
Suzuki Sonoko dared to build so many wonders at home to "set off fireworks", and these social animals who worked hard and dedicated themselves to the end can be credited a lot.
So, in this era of hard work, as a young person who needs to work hard, do you want to go home with dinner before 6 o'clock?
"Hahahaha... How naΓ―ve! β
"Young man, being able to live in this kind of apartment means that your family must be very rich."
"And it is precisely because the family protects you so well that you have not really experienced the beating of society! Hahahaha...."
Mori Kogoro laughed exaggeratedly.
Until his daughter, Mao Lilan looked embarrassed and removed the corner of his clothes:
"Dad... Stop laughing. β
"Didn't you even hear the name I just called... This is Mr. Lin Xinyi. β
"Huh?" Maori Kogoro was slightly stunned: "Lin Xinyi? It's a familiar name..."
He frowned, pondering.
And before he could think of any results, Miss Yoko Okino on the side suddenly reacted.
"Yikes! No wonder it looks so familiar..."
"So you're the forest manager who won the streak of Kudo Shinichi and defeated the monster thief Kidd?"
"I didn't expect you to live next to my house!"
It's as if the garden met Kidd, and Kogoro met Yoko...
In front of Maori Kogoro's extremely wonderful expression, Yoko Okino took the initiative to stretch out her hand to Lin Shinichi:
"Hello, Officer Lin!"
