77 Walking with Kogoro
In the afternoon, Gao Yuan came to a coffee shop near Didan High School. At this time, it was time for Didan High School to finish school.
Soon, a girl wearing the uniform of Tedan High School also walked into the coffee shop and sat down in front of Takato - it was Ayako Ninagawa.
Because of the second meeting yesterday at Miwa General Hospital, Ninagawa Ayako asked for Takato's contact information. As a result, today, Gaoyuan received a call from Ninagawa Ayako, asking him to meet at a coffee shop near Teitan High School.
Because Ninagawa Ayako is one grade higher than Kudo Shinichi, she still has classes as usual today.
After Ninagawa Ayako sat down, Takato began to ask questions.
"Is there something wrong with you suddenly looking for me?"
There was no direct answer. Ninagawa Ayako seemed a little shy, and she hesitated before speaking slowly.
"That...actually isn't that important."
"Then... let's talk about it?"
Gao Yuan was a little helpless at the situation, so he asked tentatively.
Hearing what Gao Yuan said, Ninagawa Ayako seemed a little relieved, so she began to narrate quietly.
"Actually, this is just a personal doubt of mine, and I don't know if it counts as a case commission. But because I saw you, Mr. Mingzhi, yesterday, I thought of asking your opinion."
After a pause, Ninagawa Ayako seemed to feel a little rude, and said, "I'm sorry, because of my personal selfishness, I called Mr. Akechi out. Isn't it too rude?"
"It doesn't matter, just keep talking."
Gao Yuan said with relief that he had nothing to do at the moment anyway.
After hearing this, Ninagawa Ayako felt completely at ease, stopped rambling, and went straight to the topic:
"Mr. Mingzhi, you also know that my father is the director of Mihua General Hospital, so I often go in and out of the hospital and am very familiar with some of the doctors in the hospital. Because of this, sometimes I also hear some rumors in the hospital.
.And recently, I heard a strange thing."
After hearing this, Gao Yuan probably understood that the matter she consulted him for should be related to the matter she was going to talk about next, so he listened patiently.
"Not long ago, the hospital admitted a patient named Takeshi Sakurai. Originally he was injured and comatose due to a fall, but when he woke up, he lost his memory."
Speaking of this, Ayako Ninagawa explained: "Originally, it was nothing, but later I heard that a sister I knew seemed to be planning to date Mr. Sakurai, who had lost his memory, so I felt a little uneasy."
After a pause, he continued to explain: "That sister's name is Mizushima Kanae, and she is the daughter of Mr. Mizushima Tokuharu who often lives in our hospital ward. Because Mizushima Kanae sister often comes to our hospital to visit Mr. Mizushima Tokuharu, so
I know her as a very serious sister. So when I hear rumors that she seems to be dating Mr. Sakurai, who has lost his memory, I always feel uneasy."
After hearing what she said, Gao Yuan couldn't help but frown slightly - because he heard such rumors in the hospital, he came to him specifically for consultation, but he always felt that it was a bit hasty.
"Is that all?"
Gao Yuan couldn't help but ask, "Is this the only reason why you care about this matter?"
Speaking of this, Ninagawa Ayako's face turned slightly red and she looked away shyly. After thinking for a moment, she said, "Because of my fiancé."
After a pause, Ninagawa Ayako turned back and continued.
"I am engaged to Dr. Kohei Urata of the hospital, and he happens to be Mr. Mizushima Tokuharu's attending physician. I heard these things from him. Because Mr. Mizushima Tokuharu is terminally ill, he seems to want to be here
I saw my daughter get married before she passed away. But if it was because of this, I always feel a bit hasty about dating a person who has lost his memory. After all, sister Mizushima Kanae is a very good person, and I heard other doctors say that Mr. Sakurai is a very good person.
People who live a very miserable life.”
The reason is not very sufficient.
Gao Yuan thought as he looked at the shy female high school student in front of him.
However, has she already made an engagement when she was only in high school? And the partner is a doctor who is much older than her. Thinking of her status as the daughter of the hospital director, I feel like I can imagine a lot of plots!
Just looking at Ninagawa Ayako, Gao Yuan didn't speak for a long time, and Ninagawa Ayako was also silent, seeming to be struggling with something, and then seemed to have made some decision before he said:
"Perhaps I feel the same way. After all, I originally planned to marry Dr. Urata after graduating from high school, but I always feel a little uneasy about this. After all, this is related to my lifelong happiness. After seeing sister Kanae Mizushima and Mr. Sakurai
, dating on the premise of marriage, it seems that I can always feel something different in them. Therefore, I want to understand why two people with such huge differences can come together!"
At this point, Gao Yuan finally figured out what was going on. It seemed like incident counseling, but in essence it was emotional counseling - a girl who was about to graduate from high school was going to marry a doctor who was much older than herself. For such a
In the future, I felt confused. As a result, after seeing two very different lovers, the girl developed empathy and wanted to find her own answer from their relationship.
Really, how can I understand the troubles of high school girls?
Gao Yuan thought helplessly, after all, he was single until he traveled through time.
"Just investigate why they choose to date."
Gao Yuan concluded, after all, he couldn’t answer other questions.
"Well, roughly speaking, it's like this."
Ninagawa Ayako responded.
"If I have time, I will help you investigate."
Gao Yuan said, finally agreeing.
Soon, it was getting late. After the two said goodbye, they left separately. Then, on the way home, Gao Yuan received a call from Mao Lilan:
"Hey! Mr. Mingzhi, are you convenient now?"
On the phone, Mao Lilan asked anxiously.
"Well, what's the matter? You called me specifically. Speaking of which, isn't Mori-san going on a school trip to Hakone Town today?"
Gao Yuan asked slightly confused.
"On the way to the school trip, Sonoko was kidnapped! I'm very worried! So, Mr. Akechi, can you help me! Shinichi and he also became very strange after Sonoko was kidnapped!"
Mao Lilan said anxiously.
"Shinichi? He also went on a school trip?"
Hearing this, Gao Yuan was a little surprised, because last night Kudo Shinichi swore that he was not interested in school trips.
"Yes, Shinichi is here too."
Mao Lilan said.
"Then where are you now?"
“The ‘prince hotel’ on the edge of Lake Ashinoko in Hakone Town.”
The same conversation also happened in the Maori Detective Agency. Maori Kogoro, who was lying on the sofa smoking, immediately stood up after receiving a call from Maori Lan and said excitedly:
"What? The eldest daughter of a rich family has been kidnapped? That is your most important friend. I will definitely find Yuanzi! I will come right away, wait for me!"
With that said, he hung up the phone, put out the cigarette in his hand, picked up the suit jacket on the side, put it on, and went out.
Hakone Town is located in Kanagawa Prefecture, just on the edge of Tokyo. If you take the rail transit, you can get there very quickly. But to get to Lake Ashi, you have to change trains, which is a bit troublesome, so Gao Yuan thought about it.
, chose to rent a car and go there.
When he came to the car rental agency, Gao Yuan was going to rent a car. Compared with taking a taxi, the cost was not too high, and it was more convenient to drive by himself.
As a result, Gao Yuan proposed to rent an ordinary current car, but the clerk told him that the only cheaper current car left had been rented just now.
"Look, that person hasn't left yet."
The clerk pointed to a 12th-generation Crown sedan in the garage and said.
Looking in the direction pointed by the clerk, Gao Yuan saw a middle-aged man wearing a suit and a mustache, who was about to get into the car - Mouri Kogoro!
Seeing that the person who rented the car mentioned by the clerk was Mouri Kogoro, Gao Yuan immediately ran up and asked Moori Kogoro who was already sitting in the car:
"Detective Mori, where are you going so late?"
Although he asked this question, Gao Yuan had a vague guess.
"It is you!"
Seeing Gao Yuan, Mouri Kogoro suddenly remembered who the person in front of him was, and said impatiently: "Xiaolan, please ask me for something. I'm going to Kanagawa Prefecture."
"That's just right, let's come together!"
With that said, Gao Yuan sat directly in the passenger seat - and sure enough, Mao Lilan not only asked him to take care of him. However, he didn't expect that Mao Lilan's choice coincided with his own.
Chapter completed!
