Lu Yuan turned his head and saw Mao Li, who had just opened the curtain, and was startled, and then showed a happy expression.

"Mr. Maori, I know ......"

"You know a." Mao Li interrupted Lu Yuan's words angrily, and then walked in and looked at the furnishings in the stall.

He didn't seem to want to sit with Lu Yuan, but because this kind of stall was not a big place, he had no choice but to sit down next to Lu Yuan.

"I was kicked out, don't think too much about it." Maori said.

"Uh......" Lu Yuan groaned for a moment, and he didn't know what to say.

Soon, the ramen was served, and Mori drank a bowl of noodle soup with a slightly alcoholic face.

"You say, why is it so difficult to raise a daughter..... Xiaolan completely followed her mother, and my advantages were not inherited at all. ”

Lu Yuan's eyes were empty. I thought, do you really have merit in your old age?

"Excuse me, why were you kicked out?" Lu Yuan hesitated and asked.

"Because I didn't help you, Xiaolan kicked me out, I have already said it, there is likely to be a problem to help you, what if Daddy and I die outside, and then he put out the heroic deeds I had when I chased the criminals before, saying that I didn't care so much when I chased the gangsters with my bare hands, hey, this can be the same."

"Emmm, from my point of view, it really doesn't make that difference."

"Cut." Maori snorted: "You should know, everyone has their own most cherished things, although it is a virtue to help others, but if you can't protect even the most important things, then how many virtues can be." ”

Lu Yuan looked at the mist rising in front of him, of course he understood what Maori meant, after awakening to become a [human], he became more and more aware that human beings will always involuntarily have the deepest desire to protect something, even at the beginning, he has always acted with rational thinking, there is no way to avoid it.

It is as if in front of a speeding vehicle, a mother will recklessly rescue her child, and even when she reaches the child, she finds that it is completely impossible to avoid the vehicle, then she will hold him tightly in her arms, trying to use her body to slow down the impact under the steel.

This kind of behavior is intellectually ridiculous, and the mothers must have known about it, but they still went back to do it.

In the past, Lu Yuan would not have understood this kind of thing, but now, if he was asked to choose between Ah Li and many fellow villagers, then he would not hesitate to choose the former.

is not rational enough, selfish, and can even be said to be stupid, but Lu Yuan will still choose this way, so ...... He found that in the more than a year since he woke up, he was no longer his previous self at all.

"You say, if I really don't help you, will my stupid girl really not let me go home." Maori's words suddenly interrupted Lu Yuan's thinking.

"I definitely hope so." Lu Yuan said with a smile.

"But everybody knows she's going to end up opening the door for me while she's counting me down." Maori said earnestly, "But she seems to be disappointed in me again...... I remember when she was a child, every time I came home from work, she would stare at the shining eyes and throw herself into my arms and ask me, Dad~ Did you catch the bad guy today? ”

Maori seems to have fallen into some kind of wonderful memory: "I must have been a great image in his mind then, but she hadn't shown that kind of look to me for a long time. ”

Lu Yuan didn't have a daughter, he didn't know what this feeling would be, but if one day, Ah Li no longer trusted him, or hated himself, that feeling must be terrible.

Maori must have drunk so much before he was kicked out that his face was still red after a bowl of noodle soup was served, and he leaned back in his chair lazily.

"You know, since I ...... Forehead...... In your words, after awakening, I was always worried, worried that I would be the only one in this world who had awakened, so in the first few years, I had been looking for people everywhere to test me, in case they also awakened, but kept pretending. However, I found ...... It really seems like it's just me. ”

"Isn't it good to wake up?" Lu Yuan asked.

"Of course it's not good, how can this feeling of being watched by untouchable forces every day be good, but what I'm most afraid of is responsibility."

"Responsibility?"

"Yes, responsibility, once Miss Yoko participated in an issue of "Kamen Superman", where the protagonist is that after having the power of the mask, life has changed dramatically, and he didn't want to get involved in fighting monsters, but the ability to bring it must be responsibility, even if you escape, you can't escape. So, I'm afraid that one day, your kind will suddenly appear and disrupt my life, but I have nowhere to hide, because my awakening must be useful. ”

Maori said, looking at the rain curtain overhead, and his eyes seemed to fly through the curtain to the sky: "If there is such a force that controls the direction of everything, then you will appear one day...... That's my plot. ”

At this moment, Lu Yuan seemed to feel that the drunken uncle in front of him had changed again.

"How long is your plan?" 、

"I don't know, but in this world, it should be about a week." "I'm leaving this world?"

"Yes"

"Didn't you say that if so-called players like you leave this world, then there is no way to control the flow of time?"

"I'll let one player stay here so this quest doesn't end."

Maori frowned, he didn't understand, but he didn't seem to have the heart to ask any further, he sighed:

"Hey, okay, the profession of detective is to help people solve problems, and you can't always let Xiaolan look down on you, right?"

Lu Yuan's heart had actually been ecstatic for a long time, and he smiled: "So, you still promised me, right." ”

"Don't leak that expression, I'm just trying to save face in front of my girl, besides, my commission fee is not cheap." Maori muttered lazily.

"Detective Mori Kogoro's commission, it's certainly not cheap, but...... How much is that? ”

"You tie the knot in front of you first." Maori rubbed his stomach, then turned around, and walked out of the ramen stall, vaguely, Lu Yuan seemed to hear him complaining, didn't Xiaolan really let himself into the house tonight.

The owner of the ramen shop looked at Maori who left a little blankly, and then looked at Lu Yuan with a surprised look.

"Is this gentleman the detective, Mori Kogoro?"

Lu Yuan smiled: "Yes." ”

"Oh." The owner of the ramen shop nodded with some admiration: "It turns out that the detective looks like this, it looks ...... Isn't it the same as you imagined? ”

Lu Yuan turned his head, and from the gap in the curtain, he could just look at Mao Li, who was swaying and scratching his buttocks, and said to himself:

"It's not the same as I imagined."
