Tokyo, dark night.
Jiang Xia was wandering around on a motorcycle, trying to meet some cases by chance, or run into some colleagues who also haunted in the middle of the night.
In the middle of the walk, he suddenly felt the phone vibrate next to him.
Judging from the duration of the shock, the sender should be one of the big names in the case.
Jiang Xia was stunned, stopped the car immediately, took out his mobile phone to check: “…” Could it be that some acquaintance who stayed up late at night encountered a case and wanted to send him over to help?
However, when the screen is turned on, there is only a dull and ordinary message in the email, from the shrunken Kudo-san:
[I heard that you went to school today, did anything unusual happen in school? For example, Xiaolan met some interesting male classmates or teachers. ]
Jiang Xia: “…”
He blandly deleted the news that the content of the case was 0, put the phone back in his pocket, pretended to be asleep and couldn’t reply, and continued to focus on driving his car.
…
On the second day, Conan came to meet them with a pair of big dark circles under his eyes.
When we arrived at Izu Beach, Conan hadn’t fully woken up yet.
The sea breeze blew past, Conan yawned, raised his head and glanced at Jiang Xia quietly, and found that Jiang Xia did not have dark circles under his eyes, but instead looked refreshed.
So Conan had no choice but to guess that the traveling detective fell asleep early and didn’t see his email.
Jiang Xia looked surprised when he saw Conan’s appearance clearly, and teased in a low voice: “You are not a real elementary school student, but you are so excited that you can’t sleep all night because you are going to travel?”
Conan: “…”
He sighed and didn’t want to say more.
Jiang Xia then went to see other people.
Different from Sonoko Suzuki’s plan, Kogoro Mori actually came along too—probably caught by his daughter with a bait like “there are many beauties in bikinis by the sea”.
Seeing that Jiang Xia and Suzuki Sonoko were both looking at her father, Mao Lilan knew that high school students sometimes don’t like being accompanied by their parents when they travel, so she quickly explained: “My father just came to see the beach, and we are the only ones to go to Mitian Island.”
Jiang Xia nodded, but didn’t mind about it: “Actually, if uncle wants to go to the island, I think I can take him to play with him.”
Jiang Xia has no objection, so Suzuki Sonoko has no objection either, anyway Kogoro Moori doesn’t have the majesty of any parent, in her eyes he’s just a bluffing uncle: “Then let’s go together?”
Moori Kogoro waved his hand with a lack of interest: “Forget it, you only have a bunch of little kids over there, I still prefer the scenery of the beach – look!”
Suddenly his eyes lit up, and he raised his hand and pointed under the parasol next to him: “You don’t understand the entertainment of adults, for example, there are no such beautiful beauties on your island!”
Jiang Xia turned her head to look over, and saw that there was indeed a beautiful woman in a swimsuit standing next door. The woman with her back to this side, wearing a backless swimsuit, was wiping her dripping hair while she lowered her head to pick up the sunscreen on the table.
Suddenly hearing Kogoro Mori’s shout, the woman frowned and turned her head, revealing a familiar face under the towel.
——Fei Yingli.
That is Mao Lilan’s mother, Mao Li Kogoro’s currently separated wife.
When Fei Yingli looked back and saw Mori Kogoro, she was obviously taken aback, as if she had seen a ghost: “Why are you here?”
Mori Kogoro: “…”
Suzuki Sonoko: “…” The uncle’s gaze is really consistent.
Conan: “…” It turned out that Xiaolan was dating Aunt Yingli last night… I didn’t sleep well all night because of this.
Mao Lilan has already rushed to the middle of the two, with a surprised expression on his face: “Wow~ there is such a coincidence! You two are so destined to meet so many people on the beach!”
Jiang Xia took a look at her hard work, raised her hands and applauded meaningfully: “Indeed.”
Moori Kogoro looked at his daughter: “Oh, you secretly arranged it again!”
Fei Yingli also looked at her: “I should have thought of…”
Mao Lilan had no choice but to blink and pretend to be stupid: “Huh?”
…
Even if it is not a husband and wife relationship for the time being, they are acquaintances after all. Now that we have met, of course we have to sit down and have a cup of tea and something to eat.
A few people arrived at the seaside cafe.
Sitting at the square table, Mao Lilan looked at Mori Kogoro on the left, and Fei Yingli on the right, and finally couldn’t help asking Jiang Xia in a low voice: “Have I really been exposed?”
Jiang Xia glanced at her and said tactfully, “Maybe, maybe not yet.”
“…” Mao Lilan fiddled with the napkin, and decided to relax the atmosphere first, she smiled and looked at her parents, “It’s rare to meet, why don’t we worry about other things and enjoy the beach together! “
Mori Kogoro sneered: “I was really concentrating on enjoying the beach until just now, but unfortunately I was interrupted by an aunt who was still wearing a beautiful swimsuit at a certain age.”
Fei Yingli also smiled: “I don’t know who was talking to that aunt in a beautiful swimsuit just now, it’s so embarrassing that people can’t see it.”
“…Hmph!” Mori Kogoro couldn’t find any rebuttal, got up and left angrily.
Mao Lilan grabbed Jiang Xia with one hand and Sonoko Suzuki with the other, and shouted silently: What to do! !
Jiang Xia’s arm hurts from being pinched by her, so she had to seriously help and find a way.
Thinking for a moment, he whispered to Mao Lilan in a volume that Fei Yingli couldn’t hear: “Didn’t the ‘new doctor’ say that he will come later? It’s better to leave it to the adults to find a way. “
——As expected, when Sonoko Suzuki took Mao Lilan to invite her to the island, Belmode, who was wearing a “new doctor” disguise, heard the news, although his expression became very complicated in an instant, But in the end she still agreed~IndoMTL.com~ just agreed, she seemed to want to avoid too much contact with some people, and also wanted to try her best to cover up her abnormal attitude towards Mao Lilan and Conan, so she didn’t go with the students The plan to play happily at the beach, only said that they will come to meet them before they go to the island.
When Mao Lilan heard Jiang Xia’s proposal, she was stunned at first, and then thought it was wonderful: Yes, Dad and Mom should still have feelings for each other, but each is more face-saving than the other, and their mouths are still very stubborn , refused to take the lead in repairing the relationship. At this time, it is time to introduce a third-party force—the new doctor is so handsome, maybe Dad will feel a sense of crisis immediately when he sees him, and then he can take the lead in expressing his attitude or something.
Thinking of the wonderful scene of the two shaking hands and making peace, Mao Lilan’s eyes lit up, and she quietly gave Jiang Xia a thumbs up under the table.
But then, she suddenly noticed something.
Mao Lilan’s eyes fell on Fei Yingli’s hand, and she was suddenly shocked: “Mom, why don’t you wear a wedding ring? Don’t you always wear it?”
