Chapter 18: Valentine's Day (2)
Knowing that Xiaolan promised the gorilla to go to the Valentine's Day party, Conan, who was anxious, hurriedly handed out the flyers assigned to him under the surveillance of the other three members of the detective group, and hurried back home. As soon as he entered the house, Conan immediately smelled it. In the living room, Mori was sleeping, and he muttered, "I'm Detective Mori Kogoro......" glanced at him, Conan searched for the taste and entered the kitchen, and sure enough, Ran was making that thing in the kitchen.
Conan asked casually, "Sister Lan, what are you doing?" ”
Holding a cooking book in one hand and a small pot in the other, Lan asked rhetorically, "What do you say?" ”
"The scent is," Conan said after sniffing, "chocolate." ”
Lan smiled: "Tomorrow is the annual Valentine's Day." ”
"Sister Nalan," Conan asked tentatively, "do you have someone you can give chocolate to?" ”
"How can you ask that," Lan smiled, "how could you possibly make chocolate yourself if you didn't have someone to give it to." ”
"That's right," Conan asked tentatively again, a little embarrassed, "could it be for the new brother who is about to return?" ”
"Shinichi?" Lan said, "When you said that, I thought there was that guy. This blow directly knocked Conan down.
Lan asked with concern, "What's going on?" ”
"No, nothing." Conan got up and laughed dryly. ……
………………
The next day, I don't know if the school encourages everyone to fall in love, anyway, today's Valentine's Day is a holiday, and in the morning the garden actively called Yamamoto Taku to ask Yamamoto Taku to pick her up first to Xiaolan's house, not that she doesn't have a full-time driver, but she is still relatively shrewd, and she doesn't want to expose her identity as a daughter, and try to eliminate those who have bad intentions.
When he arrived at Maori's house, he entered the door and found that Xiaolan was arranging the dishes and chopsticks, so Sonoko and Takushi Yamamoto waited at the office for a while, until the gorilla Wakamatsu called to say that he had arrived downstairs, Takuko Yamamoto and Sonoko went downstairs first, and Xiaolan went upstairs to change clothes.
Xiaolan changed her clothes and went downstairs to open the door of the Maori Detective Agency, and said to Maori, who was sitting behind the desk, who was too lazy to clean up her face and had a scruffy beard because she had no business: "Dad, I'm leaving." ”
Putting down the newspaper that he was bored to read, Maori solemnly instructed: "Xiaolan, you must bring a rich man back." ”
Ignoring Maori's words, she looked around, and Xiaolan said to herself, "It's strange, why is Conan missing?" ”
At this time, Yuan Zi saw Lan go downstairs, but pushed open the door of the office, and still stood still at the door, and immediately shouted: "Xiaolan, what are you doing, we are leaving." ”
And Conan, who Xiaolan was looking for, had just rushed back from Dr. Asasa's house at this time, although he knew that Takuya Yamamoto would go back, Xiaolan would not suffer, but Conan still felt that this kind of thing had to come in person, but after comprehensive consideration, he felt that he had little chance of winning if he fought hand-to-hand with that strong man, so it was better to get the equipment, so he rushed to get the anesthesia watch and other equipment. At this time, seeing that Takushi Yamamoto's attention was on Ran's side, he immediately ran to the back of Wakamatsu's car parked on the side of the road, thinking about the chocolates from yesterday afternoon, Conan shouted in his heart, I must find out where the box of chocolates went. I made an excuse for myself, then took out the tools I had prepared and picked the lock on the trunk of the car. After a few clicks, the lock opened, and Conan touched the watch he had just taken, turned over and got into the trunk that had been pried open, and took it with him.
And when Conan didn't know what he thought was secret, he had long been known by Taku Yamamoto, and when he closed the trunk, Taku Yamamoto smiled, not bad, at least he would be in a hurry, knowing the importance of Xiaolan.
"I'm sorry to keep you waiting." Lan said and went downstairs.
"Whew!" Relieved, he had been waiting for a long time, and Ruosong, who had been holding back, said, "Miss Xiaolan, it's okay, then let's go now." With that, he went to open the back door, and wanted to lure Yuanzi and Lan into the car.
Looking at Wakamatsu's small broken car, Taku Yamamoto said, "You can lead the way in front, and the two of them will still sit in the car!" ”
Wakamatsu's hands stiffened when he heard this, and then he looked at the SUV customized by Taku Yamamoto next to him, and then looked at his own car. I was really embarrassed to argue about anything, nodded, silently closed the car door and sat in the cab.
Xiaolan and Yuanzi looked at Wakamatsu's sudden silence, and they couldn't bear it, but after seeing the scene, both of them decisively sat in Takushi Yamamoto's car. Sympathy is sympathy, but you can't treat yourself badly.
The car soon drove to the Minagawa house, only to see that the Minagawa family was a detached house, and there were two men and two women who came out to greet them, a man with a standard figure should be the owner of the house, Minagawa Katsuhiko, and a man with a gloomy face and a little fat. The other two women, one in a blue denim suit with short hair that doesn't reach the ears, and the other one wears an off-white casual dress, a short skirt underneath, and short hair over the ears, both of them look quite beautiful.
Taku Yamamoto and the three of them were led to the living room, where beer drinks and side dishes were already placed on the table, and everyone sat like this, Wakamatsu and the woman in denim were sitting on the sofa next to the table, the fat man was sitting on the short side of the table, facing the woman in denim, Taku Yamamoto, Xiaolan and Sonoko were sitting on the long side, and Katsuhiko Kawa and a woman in casual clothes were all sitting on the other short side. After sitting down, without saying a word, Wakamatsu proposed to have a drink first, so everyone poured their drinks, and in the shouts of "Cheers" from Sonoko, Wakamatsu and the woman in the denim suit, everyone raised their glasses and touched them in two places, one on the table and one on the sofa. Putting down the glass, Wakamatsu said loudly, "Everyone, this is Miss Maoliran, Miss Sonoko Suzuki, and ......"
Taku Yamamoto introduced: "I'm Taku Yamamoto, Xiaolan's cousin. ”
"Uh," although he was blocked by this incomprehensible introduction, Wakamatsu immediately said, "Let's let the members of the Rice Flower Medical University Tennis Club introduce themselves, Minaga, you will start the introduction first." ”
"Okay," Katsuhiko Minagawa said, who was sitting in the garden and a woman in casual clothes, introducing himself, "I'm the president, Katsuhiko Minagawa, and it's a pleasure to get to know you." ”
"Really?" Sonoko asked excitedly, then took Katsuhiko Minagawa's left arm and said, "I'm happy too." ”
Wakamatsu immediately stopped: "Okay, okay, moderation, moderation." ”
At this time, the woman in the denim suit stood up and introduced herself: "Everyone, my name is Kantani. Then he preached to the garden, "Miss garden, although you are still young, don't be too noisy. ”
Yuanzi immediately whispered to Lan beside her: "She is prejudiced against me, she is just beautiful, how can she be full of jealousy as a woman." Lan really couldn't answer her this question, so she could only laugh dryly twice and send a smile to comfort her.
At this time, Wakamatsu saw that the fat man next to him didn't speak, so he urged: "Naodao, it's your next turn." Then he saw that Naodao just drank beer and didn't speak, so he touched the back of his head and complained, "Really, you're always so gloomy." This finally elicited a reaction from Naomichi, though only a slanted eye with a grim look.
Seeing a little cold, the woman in casual clothes introduced herself: "Everyone, my name is Watanabe Haomi, please advise." ”
After Watanabe finished speaking, Wakamatsu immediately said, "Okay, then, it's my turn in the end." As he spoke, he put on a toned pose and introduced himself, "I'm gentle and strong," and then continued in a tearful and longing pose, "It's also an amorous seed that loves to shed tears," and finally said proudly, "Wakamatsu Toshihide is under me." ”
This performance immediately caused Ran and Sonoko to laugh, and Takushi Yamamoto pouted, and Ran would have a ghost when he saw him. Suddenly I thought of something, and I turned my eyes to look out the window, and sure enough, I found Conan hiding in the bushes and looking inside, still muttering something in his mouth. But seeing the clothes he was wearing now, Taku Yamamoto shook his head, he was still so reckless, and he was not ready to come out to keep an eye on him, so he probably caught a cold.
Conan, who was watching in the courtyard outside the window, couldn't hear the sound inside, and everyone was laughing when he saw what the gorilla said inside, so he complained: "What, Xiaolan, this guy still looks very happy." ”
