In the playground behind Didan Primary School, a fashionably dressed lady got out of a white car.
Looking at the empty playground and the ginkgo leaves knocked to the ground by the rain, there was a trace of sadness on his face.
She came here while she was excited and left disappointed. She didn’t know if she would be able to wait for the person she wanted to wait for in the next ten years.
The woman slowly opened the umbrella in her hand and walked towards the familiar corner. As promised, she would wait until the sun went down.
"Where, exactly where?"
Mao Lilan rushed out of Dr. Ali's car happily, completely ignoring the rain dripping on her body.
"Hey, Xiaolan, wait a minute, you'll catch a cold like this."
Kudo Shinichi followed closely, grabbing the umbrella in the car and rushing out.
"Doctor, let's go down too!"
Mochizuki was a little helpless. Children are relatively naive. The meeting after thirty years was full of uncertainty. Now it started to rain again. If it were her, she would definitely not stay any longer.
It seems that the person waiting will change this time. Poor doctor, even God will not help him.
The entire playground was quiet, with no trace of anyone coming. Mochizuki was about to persuade a few people to go back when she heard Mao Lilan's exclamation.
The two hurried over and saw a white car parked near the corner. Kudo Shinichi was leaning forward and peering into the car.
"Doctor, this must be Miss Kinoshita's car. Come here quickly."
Mao Lilan's clear voice sounded, breaking the silence of the playground, and also alarmed Fusae Kinoshita who was waiting quietly under the ginkgo tree.
The woman walked out from under the tree and looked at the four people standing next to the car with some surprise.
"Doctor, come over quickly, she has been waiting for you for thirty years!"
Mochizuki pushed Dr. Ali next to her. It was a pity that such a beautiful woman should be matched with such a bad old man as the doctor.
"Well, may I ask who you are..."
Dr. Ali mustered up the courage to ask the woman standing under the ginkgo tree. Unfortunately, before he could finish his words, another tall man walked out of the corner covered by the tree trunk.
"Fusae, are you okay?"
Fusae Kinoshita exchanged a few words with the man in a low voice. The man nodded clearly, turned around and walked towards where the car was parked.
Kudo Shinichi and Mao Lilan looked at the man who suddenly appeared, their faces elongated at the same time, and they both looked at Dr. Ali with some worry.
"The kids look so cute!"
Fusae Kinoshita nodded towards where Mochizuki and the others were standing, and said with a smile.
"Ah, okay."
Dr. A Li didn't know what to say for a moment, so he had to agree casually.
Mochizuki resignedly took out his cell phone and contacted Rensaburo Shiratori, who was working overtime at the police station. That man should be familiar with Miss Kinoshita, but they would not be a couple.
No woman would recall her first love with her current partner, unless she does not intend to maintain her current family.
Mochizuki has not forgotten what happened at the last dinner party with Miho Sato and the others. Yumi let go of her boyfriend, and it is said that it took a lot of effort to coax him.
"The ginkgo trees here are beautiful. Do you like the color of the ginkgo trees?"
Fusae Kinoshita put the umbrella in her hand on the ground. The heavy rain had just stopped, and the raindrops on the leaves continued to drip down with the breeze, just like her mood, which continued to fall with time.
"Hey, the scenery here is always the most beautiful at this time of year."
Dr. A Li stretched out his hand to grab the ginkgo leaves fluttering in the wind, with some emotion and regret in his tone.
The conversation between the two older single young men made the three Mochizuki people who were standing aside and eavesdropping roll their eyes. No matter how you look at it, now is not the time to talk about such a topic.
"Are you Miss Kinoshita?"
Mochizuki put her phone back into her pocket, interrupting the conversation between the two of them.
She has gotten what she wants. Miss Fusae Kinoshita is still single. Judging from the current situation, the two of them still have a chance to renew their relationship.
"I am."
Fusae Kinoshita hesitated for a moment and nodded slightly.
"I am Mochizuki Qingtan. I am entrusted by Dr. A Li to come here to help him find a friend whom he lost contact with thirty years ago. Please forgive me if I am offended."
Mochizuki took out the business card from her arms and gently handed it to the woman standing opposite.
"Commission?"
Fusae Kinoshita looked at Dr. Agasa with some confusion.
Mochizuki pushed Mao Lilan aside, who resented the lack of steel. The other party immediately understood, took a deep breath, closed his eyes and shouted.
"Dr. Ali, is this lady your first love?"
The two people opposite who didn't know what to say suddenly froze on the spot.
"Miss Kinoshita must be the old classmate that the doctor has been looking for for thirty years!"
Kudo Shinichi was forced to come on stage. Fortunately, he was prepared and took out the postcard that Miss Kinoshita sent to Dr. Agasa.
"So you still have it."
Fusae Kinoshita took the postcard and looked at Dr. Agasa with some surprise.
"Didn't you notice that it was soaked by the rain when you sent the letter?"
"Dr. Ali comes to look for you every ten years at the place where you have been together before."
Kudo Shinichi took advantage of the victory and directly revealed the reason why the two had not seen each other for thirty years.
"Hey, I didn't notice it at the time."
Fusae Kinoshita was stunned for a moment, then picked up the postcard in her hand and examined it carefully.
Mochizuki stood aside and coughed lightly. The misunderstanding was almost resolved, and it was time for outsiders like them to leave. The rest of the time should be left to these two friends who reunited after a long separation.
"Dr. Agasa, I will take these two brats back first, and Miss Kinoshita will leave it to you."
Mochizuki took the car key and waved it towards Dr. A Li. There was really no need for them to stay here and eat dog food.
"Ah, I'm going back for that one too."
Fusae Kinoshita put the postcard into Dr. Agasa's hand, picked up the umbrella on the ground, and walked quickly towards the car.
"Doctor, the man just now is not Ms. Kinoshita's husband at all. Hurry up and chase him!"
Mochizuki reminded in a low voice that he was already in his 40s, so he wouldn't want to make another ten-year appointment!
"To this day, I still like ginkgo the most."
Dr. Agasa waved his arms vigorously and shouted towards Kinoshita who was sitting in the car.
"Ms. Kinoshita, Dr. Agasa lives at 2-22, Yoneka Town. Please remember to write down the address next time you send a letter."
Mochizuki shook her head, okay, middle-aged people really shouldn't rush into love, but they can't drag it out like this either.
However, when she said this, Miss Kinoshita would not be embarrassed to contact Dr. Agasa, or give Miss Kinoshita's contact information to the doctor.
Mochizuki looked at Dr. A Li with a troubled expression. After all, he was not that easy to be a matchmaker.
