Under the setting sun, Dr. Ari took Conan, Mitsuhiko, Genta, and Ayumi, four elementary school students, walking in the ginkgo forest.
"But it's okay to be absent," Dr. Ali felt regretful, but still smiled, "After all, it was an agreement made more than forty years ago."
Conan glanced at Dr. Ali speechlessly. The kind of letter with the secret code for an appointment can be lost under the cabinet. He still doesn't remember the location on the secret code, and it's true for the doctor.
But the doctor was right. It had been more than forty years, and the other party might have been disappointed and given up long ago. He just tried his best to help and let the doctor have an answer. Even Chi Feichi had no trouble...
After all, Chi Fei rarely gets together with his mother. He should be taking Hui Yuan around for the past few days, so that he can enjoy his life and avoid being an autistic ghost at home all day long.
"Doctor!" Mitsuhiko was walking when he suddenly saw a black car parked under the ginkgo tree. He stopped and pointed, "Look..."
Dr. A Li looked over with some anxiety.
"Did you find it?" Yuantai and Ayumi looked expectantly.
Conan also turned his head curiously, and then saw a familiar car.
The car that Mrs. Ganai was in a few days ago.
Moreover, Haiyuan and Mrs. Kana were beside the car, looking at them with a woman. Chi Feichi was sitting in the car, looking sideways at them from behind the window.
Appeared, the ghost of autism...
"Found it..." Mitsuhiko said blankly, "Brother Chi, Mrs. Kana and Haiyuan."
"What are they doing here?" Yuantai stepped forward in confusion.
Bumi was a little worried, "Is the condition of the rabbit in the school getting worse? Xiao Ai asked Brother Chi to help him check it out?"
Conan was just about to think about it when he suddenly realized that Dr. A Li had been looking at the strange woman beside the car, and the woman had been looking at this side, "Doctor, could that be..."
The three children looked at Dr. Ali, who was distracted and then hurriedly looked away, and understood instantly.
"Is that the doctor's first love more than forty years ago?"
"She is a great beauty!"
"It's such a shame to be with the Doctor..."
"Hey, hey, don't talk nonsense," Dr. Ali waved his hands nervously, "I'm not sure either."
In fact, he was roughly sure when he saw it, but behind him was a foreign man who looked quite old. He was taller, stronger, energetic, and...
"Really," Genta was speechless and pushed Dr. A Li forward, "How old are you, why are you so embarrassed?"
"Wait, wait a minute!" Dr. Ali resisted emotionally, but his body still cooperated honestly, holding on to the last glimmer of hope and wanting to confirm.
Next to the car, Ikegana looked at Dr. Agasa who was being pushed over, and then at Kinoshita Fusae who had been watching Dr. Agasa.
It was really Dr. Ali, which surprised her.
If only she had known it earlier... But before, she wanted Fushahui to forget about him immediately, so she never asked, and Fushahui didn't take the initiative to mention it, so there was no way she could have known it earlier. '
Hui Yuan Ai remained silent, his expression gradually speechless.
He is really the Doctor, so what she said with her venomous tongue before... Well, it's nothing, she definitely never cursed the Doctor.
But the doctor doesn't know what's going on, but he keeps refusing to make appointments. This is a great beauty.
Dr. Agasa came closer and was pushed again by Genta. He stood in front of Kinoshita Fusae, scratched his head in a hurry and smiled.
What should he say? If he has a family, then he shows up now...
"What cute grandchildren." Kinoshita Fusae looked at the four little devils, and for a moment she heard the sound of her heart breaking, but she still pretended to be calm.
(╥﹏╥)
The four children are about the same age. Even if one or two are playmates, Ali still has at least two children. Looking at it this way, he and his wife are definitely very affectionate...
"Ah? Well..." Dr. Ali responded absently, sorting out his thoughts, "I'm sorry, um..."
"I passed by here in the morning and was attracted by this ginkgo forest. It's really bright in color, so I came here to take a look again." Kinoshita Fusae admitted it when she saw Dr. Agasa. She didn't want to break it anymore and looked up at the sunset. The falling ginkgo leaves pretended to be strangers and asked with a smile, "Do you hate ginkgo?"
"Ah, no." Dr. Ali said dryly.
He should really explain why he didn't come before, but there was someone of the opposite sex beside Fushae who seemed to have a good relationship...
Conan looked at Kinoshita Fusae and remembered.
Ten years ago today was a rainy day. When he was after school, he saw Xiaolan talking to this woman, and the other party gave Xiaolan her umbrella.
If the other person was waiting here ten years ago, he should be Dr. A Li's first love.
"Sorry, it's getting late," Kinoshita Fusae felt disappointed and looked at Billy with a smile, "It's time for my husband and I to go back."
Maybe she recognized her, but unfortunately it was too late. Then don't let people know that she has been waiting for so many years and feels guilty...
Dr. A Li's heart skipped a beat and his face was calm, "Uh, I'm really bothering you."
(╥﹏╥)
Sure enough, she is already married...
Hui Yuan Ai leaned against the car door, raised her hand and yawned. She came to school early in the morning to take care of the rabbit. She was already sleepy, and said with half-moon eyes, "Obviously, she is a single person who has been single for more than fifty years and only comes into contact with experimental equipment every day. . Why do you say you have grandchildren when you are such a bad old man playing with other people's children?"
"Damn old man...?" Dr. Agasa noticed Kinoshita Fusae looking at him in surprise, blushing and lowering her head.
Ikegana had a smile on her face, and her voice was as soft and gentle as usual, "She is obviously an old aunt who doesn't think about getting married at the age of fifty, who runs here every ten years and waits for someone all day long. Why do you say this about yourself? Is my mother’s remarried husband my husband?”
Kinoshita Fusae lowered her head in embarrassment and blushed.
Chi Feichi continued to be silent and watch the show.
These two people had finished speaking, and he had nothing more to say.
Let him look through his memory. The last time he saw Ikegana being rude was twelve years ago, and further back...
Anyway, Ikegana has never lost. For a person who usually looks gentle and gentle, his ability to use a vicious tongue should not be underestimated.
However, this was the first time that he was able to joke with a ridiculing attitude instead of being angry, which meant that it was quite effective for him to have two patients, Ikekana and Haibara Ai, get together for treatment.
...a gaze and inner assessment from Dr. Chi.
Conan laughed inwardly and had nothing to say for a moment.
It turns out that both of them were pretending to be calm, but Mrs. Kana was led astray by Haibara!
"Well..." Kinoshita Fusae touched her chin with her right hand, lowered her head, and looked at the ginkgo leaves on the ground. "I have already made an appointment with a fashion magazine in France. I must go there tomorrow, and it is not convenient to change other itineraries. , it will probably take about a year to be able to arrange the matters at hand..."
Dr. Ari glanced at Conan secretly. He also had that dangerous organization here. He was worried if he left. He was even more worried if Fushae came back to get involved. "I, I also have some things to deal with... "
"Then..." Kinoshita Fusae hesitated.
Dr. A Li was silent for a moment, then suddenly became free and easy. He raised his head and said with a smile, "See you here next year. I also like ginkgo the most now!"
"Then, I'll go back to the hotel to rest first..." Kinoshita Fusae blushed, lowered her head and hurriedly walked in the direction where their car was parked, "See you next year!"
Billy smiled friendly at Dr. A Li, and then said to the four of them, "Mrs. Kana, Master Feichi, Miss Xiaoai, and Mr. Vincent, let's go back to the hotel first. If we don't go to bed early, tomorrow I’ll miss my flight in the morning.”
Ikegana smiled softly, as calmly as if she was not the person with the venomous tongue just now, "See you another day."
…
The day after Kinoshita Fusae left, Ikekana also left.
After sending Ikeana to the airport, Haibara Ai followed Ike Fei Chi back to the apartment. She simply packed her things and prepared to go back to take care of Dr. Ali, who had big problems with cooking.
In the bedroom, Hui Yuan Ai sat by the bed, simply packed her clothes, sat by the bed, folded the clothes and put them in her bag.
She has the key to 1103. Dresses that she can't usually wear can be placed here, but she still wants to take her red coat away.
Also, the little bear doll that her godmother bought her, the panda doll...
After Chi Feichi helped Hui Yuan Ai pack up his holiday homework, he stood outside the bedroom door waiting for Hui Yuan Ai.
Haiyuan Ai put away her usual clothes, turned to look at the closet, and then looked up at the half-open door.
The setting sun shone in through the living room window, and you could see Chi Feichi standing by the corridor wall with his back to the bedroom. His shadow was stretched across the door and towards the bathroom.
She didn't know whether it was the cold air in late autumn or the sudden quiet atmosphere at home. Although the sunshine today was also warm orange, she still felt that the color was very desolate and desolate, making people sentimental.
When she returned to the apartment, she said, "I'm back." After receiving no response, she suddenly thought of her godmother who poked her head out of the kitchen and said, "Xiao Ai is back." She thought of putting down the magazine in the living room, raised her eyes, and said with a smile, "Xiao Ai is back." The Godmother is back.
When she walked to the living room, she would remember her godmother sitting next to her, watching her draw on paper, and Brother Fei Chi sitting aside, looking over and commenting after being called.
When she walked to the sofa, she would think of watching TV with her godmother that night. She was leaning in her godmother's arms, commenting on the exaggerated acting skills in the show with Brother Fei Chi.
As soon as she folded the quilt and stretched out her hands to smooth out the wrinkles, she would think of those nights when she was lying on the bed and Ikegana was leaning on the head of the bed, looking sideways at her and speaking softly in a gentle voice.
'Little Bear said, as long as you give me a hug, I will give you the hazelnut. Mr. Rabbit stepped forward and hugged him...'
She discovered that childish stories can also be very hypnotic.
Of course, it may be that the dim light of the desk lamp is too suitable for falling asleep, or it may be that the godmother's eyes look at her so peacefully and gently that she always falls asleep without any expectations. She has a dreamless night and is able to sleep peacefully until the next morning. She could see her godmother smiling and saying hello to her from the kitchen.
When she was putting away her clothes just now, she would remember that day when she was kneeling in front of the closet. Her godmother, wearing home clothes, was sitting opposite her, taking her to fold the clothes and put them in the closet.
That figure seemed to still be in every corner of the house, smiling and talking softly.
It's just that the figure is not solid at all. She can see through the figure and see the empty furniture behind her. The voices ringing in her ears are gradually becoming illusory, and the air is getting colder.
'Xiao Ai, wash your hands and get ready to eat...'
'Xiao Ai, fold this place over... No, it's just my habit. Folding clothes this way will make them look better...'
'Xiao Ai...'
'Xiao Ai...'
'Xiao Ai...'
