Chapter 30: Talks at Sea
Taku Yamamoto returned to Tokyo and arranged Asai honesty as soon as he returned to Tokyo when he received a call from Xiaolan. Connected the phone and said, "Xiaolan, is there anything wrong with calling me so late?" ”
However, Xiaolan on the other end of the phone did not answer, Yamamoto Taku was a little worried, and asked with concern: "Hey, is Xiaolan here?" What's wrong? ……”
"Cousin, are you free tomorrow? There's something I'd like to talk to you about? Xiaolan finally spoke, but she could tell from her voice that she was a little lost.
"Tomorrow, yes! How about I pick you up tomorrow? Yamamoto Taku said, at this time he was almost clear in his heart, and he probably asked emotionally, this kind of thing the other party didn't want to say, and he didn't want to ask too much.
"Well, good night cousin." Xiaolan agreed.
"Good night..."Taku Yamamoto responded.
………………
There was no word all night, and the next morning, Taku Yamamoto drove to Maori's house, pushed open the door of the office, and saw Kogoro reading the newspaper on his legs, Taku Yamamoto greeted: "Morning, uncle!" ”
"Oh, it's Taku," Mori said, glancing to the door, "what's the matter with me so early?" ”
"It's nothing, just made an appointment with Xiaolan to pick up Xiaolan, right Xiaolan and Conan." Taku Yamamoto casually sat on the sofa and said.
"Conan's stinky boy went to Asa and didn't come back when he came back last night, as for Xiaolan......" Maori suddenly thought of something, raised his eyebrows, and said to Taku Yamamoto playfully, "What?" You ........."
"Cousin, you're here." Before Maori could finish speaking, Xiaolan pushed the door and entered.
"Well, it's ...... to leave now," Taku Yamamoto replied.
"Wait for me, I'll change my clothes and leave." Xiaolan said and went upstairs to change her clothes.
"Where are you two going?" After Ran leaves, Mori asks Takudo Yamamoto.
"I see that Xiaolan has not been in a very good state recently, and I am going to take her out to sea, fishing, and see the sea..."Taku Yamamoto replied.
Hearing this, Maori was silent for a moment, patted Takushi Yamamoto's shoulder, and said with concern: "Take good care of Xiaolan..."
"Don't worry, uncle..."Taku Yamamoto nodded in agreement.
After a short time, Xiaolan changed her clothes and came down, and after the two of them waved goodbye to Maori Kogoro, they got into the car, and Xiaolan asked Yamamoto, "Cousin, where are we going now?" ”
"Today I'll take you to the sea to play." Taku Yamamoto said as he turned on the car.
"Hmm." Xiaolan replied.
After that, the two of them didn't speak, and they came to the dock in silence all the way, and when Yamamoto Takushi drove the yacht to the sea, and Xiaolan sat on the bow deck and put down the fishing rod, looking at Xiaolan, who never spoke, Yamamoto Taku took the lead and asked: "Xiaolan, don't you have anything to say to me?" ”
Xiaolan was silent for a while when she heard this, and then said, "Cousin, what do you think of Shinichi?" Is he really bad? ”
"Uh......... Xiaolan, why do you ask this? Taku Yamamoto asked rhetorically.
"Dad, Mom, and Garden, they don't like Shinichi, I don't know why he's like this?" Xiaolan said.
"Then Xiaolan, what kind of person do you think Shinichi is?" Taku Yamamoto asked.
"I ......" As soon as she spoke, Xiaolan didn't know how to continue, and there were tears in her eyes.
Taku Yamamoto took out a tissue from his arms and handed it to Xiaolan, and then comforted him softly, "I don't know what happened to you and Shinichi that would make you so depressed now. The two of you are also what I grew up looking up with, and to be honest, I don't approve of the two of you being together. But this is your personal matter, and I don't want to interfere with it. It hurts me to see you like this now. I don't know what happened to you, and I can't comment on it, but I want to say that if the person you love genuinely cares about you and loves you, it won't make you sad for so long. ”
"Cousin......" Xiaolan snorted softly, "I really, really don't know what to do." I always thought that the person I loved was Shinichi, because of love, I could endure a lot of Shinichi's bad problems, but it was really tiring, so tired! ”
"Shinichi, that bastard, is full of reasoning. Every time you talk to me, it's either about Sherlock Holmes or about football...... But I don't like any of that! Xiaolan cried and said, "Every time I encounter a case, I rush forward regardless of the occasion, and every time he leaves, I am very worried, worried that he will not come back like this." But he never listened to my advice, even though he was now a child. I really can't stand it anymore. ”
"Every time I am so arrogant, I think I can solve everything, and every time I don't break up with others, I rush up alone." Xiaolan vented, "You know what? Just yesterday when we were going to his friend's wedding together, on the Shinkansen, he saw two men in black and went to install bugs, and then he heard a bomb in the car, and the first thing he thought of was not to tell me, and he searched alone. Cousin, do you know? , and almost exploded on the train...... He didn't really trust me at all, he cared about me......"
Xiaolan cried aggrievedly after speaking, Taku Yamamoto didn't know what to say for a while, so he had to take Xiaolan into his arms and pat her back to comfort her.
After crying for a while, Xiaolan's mood gradually stabilized, and she felt a little ambiguous now, so she quickly pushed Yamamoto Taku away and sat down again. Taku Yamamoto tidied up his clothes when he saw this, and said, "Are you more comfortable?" ”
"Hmm!" Xiaolan nodded.
"Do you have any plans now? Do you want to continue to endure it, or do you want to make it clear to Shinichi? Taku Yamamoto asked.
"I... I do not know! Xiaolan shook her head, and her originally calm emotions showed some signs of getting out of control, "I really don't know what I should do!" Cousin, do you know? That day, when my father asked you if you wanted to marry me, you suddenly appeared in my heart, I wanted not to think about you, but your image became clearer and clearer, I felt sorry for Shinichi, I have been very entangled in the past few days, I want to forget you..."
"It was yesterday, and Shinichi's actions were almost unbearable for me, and afterwards I couldn't help but think, what would have happened if my cousin had been here at the time? And thinking about it, I began to recall the events of my childhood, and kept comparing you and Conan ......" Xiao Lan paused and said, "I found that my cousin was better for me when I intersected with Conan, and I also relied on my cousin more." I don't know if I'm in love with you, cousin, I'm going crazy right now, I don't know what I'm going to do next. ”
Yamamoto Takuto heard Xiaolan's words, his heart was happy, to be honest, he liked the role of Xiaolan very much before the crossing, and after the crossing, he also loved this cousin very much, if he hadn't thought that his cousin in Japan couldn't get married at the beginning, he would have started to pursue Xiaolan a long time ago. Although he was happy in his heart, when he saw Xiaolan's painful look, he whispered: "Xiaolan, do you want to listen to my advice?" ”
"Hmm!" Xiaolan nodded, today she came to Taku Yamamoto, just hoping that her cousin would solve her problems as easily as before.
"Before I come up with a solution, let me ask you a question, why do you like Shinichi, or what do you really like about Shinichi?" Taku Yamamoto said.
"I ......" Xiaolan was speechless for a while, thinking about it carefully, and was stunned to find that she didn't know what she liked Shinichi.
Seeing Xiaolan's appearance, Taku Yamamoto knew that there would be no answer, so he said again: "Isn't it unexpected, then I'll change the question, what is the partner in your heart who will spend your life with you in the future?" ”
When Xiaolan heard the new question, she began to think, and she began to blush when she thought about it, and she was shocked to find that the image of her ideal partner in her heart was the same as that of Taku Yamamoto.
Seeing Xiaolan's blushing and silent, Taku Yamamoto smiled lightly: "Actually, your problem is normal, everyone is multifaceted, and liking someone is even more impulsive, as long as you understand what you want, choose according to the needs in your heart." Don't take other people's feelings too seriously, it is you who will be affected by the good or bad life in the future. ”
Xiaolan was silent for a while after hearing this, and Yamamoto Taku didn't say anything, everything that should have been said had already been said, if Xiaolan insisted on being with Shinichi, then she could only sigh that the will of heaven could not be violated. Feeling the beating of the fishing rod in his hand, Taku Yamamoto quickly lifted it, and a large sea fish jumped out of the water, Taku Yamamoto said with a smile: "Good luck today, I'll make you sashimi to eat later............"
