Conan: The Magician of the End of the Century

Chapter 75 Difficulties
"Look, Shi Jun, isn't Xiaosaki cute?"

Hearing Natsumi's voice, Ishino, who was sitting on the sofa in the living room reading the morning newspaper, looked up, and saw Natsumi walking down the stairs in a shy and shy Sera Saki in a red dress with white flowers.

"Well, it's really cute." Ishino put down the newspaper, walked up to the two of them, and looked at Sera Saki carefully.

It has to be said that Miyano Akemi, who is of mixed race, was originally very outstanding, but now that she has become a child, after removing that mature temperament, her more delicate and lovely appearance is really pleasing.

Although she and Haibara are sisters, Sera Saki's hair should have inherited her father's darker hair color and her mother's smooth straight hair. Relatively speaking, Haibara's natural curls should be the genetic characteristics of her mother's family.

In fact, I saw in the mirror just now the cute girl with short shoulder-length black hair and dressed like a little butterfly. Seragasaki didn't recognize that it was her for a while, even when she was a child, she didn't seem to wear this kind of dress. cute outfits.

But at this moment, seeing Ishino, who had clearly seen her as an adult, with clear eyes, and said such words in a tone without any ridicule, she simply let go of her figure, completely treating herself as a little girl and said : "I also think this outfit is very cute, thank you mom."

Hearing Sera Saki's address to Natsumi, Ishino was also taken aback for a moment, looked at Natsumi with a questioning look, and then got a smile from the other party in response.

Originally, he thought that Natsumi would probably treat Sera Saki as his younger sister, but considering the actual age of the other party, most of them are more able to accept this kind of relationship.

Unexpectedly, this girl who seemed strong in front of others actually had such a side, and this result made Ishino feel more sympathy for her past.

Miyano Akemi had burdened too much and suppressed it for too long, and what Gin Jiu said to her at the end was probably the important reason why she had been persecuting herself all this time. Since she couldn't remember it, perhaps forgetting it would be the best result.

"Since Xiaosaki is called Natsumi's mother, shouldn't she also call me father?" Ishino said these words to Sera Saki without blushing, not intentionally taking advantage of her.

After all, I can be regarded as her reborn parents. Since the other party chooses to restart their life in this way and establish a good family relationship early, it can be regarded as a promise to each other.

Besides, from Ishino's point of view, he has always regarded Xiao Ai in the story as a daughter, so there is no psychological barrier to accepting Xiao Ai's sister as a daughter now.

But after hearing what he said, Serasaki looked at Natsumi suspiciously, wondering what her attitude was towards this. After all, although the two are living together, judging from their surnames, they should not be married yet.

Xia Mei didn't mind these things, but turned her head to ask Sera Saki for her own thoughts: "Xiao Saki, what do you think? It doesn't matter if you don't want to call him uncle."

Hearing Natsumi's words, Sera Saki actually understood that the other party had acquiesced in the relationship between the two, but she nodded and looked at Ishino in a sensible way and said, "You saved me and brought me home, so Xiaosaki hopes that Ishino Sir can be my father."

Hearing this, Ishino took advantage of the situation and hugged Sera Saki with one hand, then hooked the other's little finger with the little finger of the other hand, met the other's sincere eyes, and said seriously: "It's okay, Xiao Saki also promised me, Don't think about the sad things in the past, and be a happy daughter to Dad, okay?"

Knowing what kind of past the other party was referring to, Sera Saki nodded, raised the little finger hooked by Ishino, and pulled the hook with the other party: "I see."

With the confirmation of the relationship of the family of three, an imminent new problem was placed in front of several people, that is, Sera Saki's identity.

Since her life experience was completely fabricated, the so-called orphanage did not exist at all, and naturally there was no shelter record in the orphanage to prove her identity.

Under such circumstances, it is very difficult to go through the adoption procedures, and it is even more impossible to talk about the arrangements for enrolment after that.

Considering that this kind of thing is not something the two of them are familiar with, but with Grandma Yoko's rich experience, they should be able to find some solutions, so the two decided to take Sera Saki back to the castle to meet Grandma Yoko. If you want to adopt Xiaosaki, you should also let the other party nod.

……

"Little Saki, come here and sit here, let Grandma take a good look at it."

Hearing Grandma Yoko's words, Ishino understood that the other party had recognized Sera Saki's identity, and agreed with the two of them to adopt her as an adopted daughter.

Before the three of them set off for Yokosuka, Ishino took advantage of the time when Natsumi and Kosaki were changing clothes and secretly called Grandma Yoko, explaining the general situation of Serasaki.

Now that Yoko has carefully observed her appearance through Pandora, the kind of care and pity in her eyes has further proved Ishino's judgment, and at the same time, the last bit of vigilance against Sera Saki in her heart has finally been released.

Seeing the little girl sitting next to her obediently, Yoko stroked her soft short hair, turned to look at the two people on the opposite side of the tea table and said, "I already know Xiaosaki's situation, and I will help her with her household registration." You can settle it, but before going through the adoption procedures, there is one thing you have to do first."

Seeing the confused looks from the two of them, Yoko said angrily, "Have you two really thought about what kind of identity you will use to adopt Xiaosaki?"

Hearing grandma's questioning, Xia Mei didn't know what the other party was referring to, her face blushed suddenly, but she was a little excited and happy in her heart.

Yoko didn't care about her granddaughter's reaction, but looked at Shi Ye who was a little dazed and said seriously: "The relationship between the two of you is not bad, but with that piece of paper, at least it's right." I have an explanation to Xia Mei's parents under Nine Springs."

"Boy Shi, I probably know what you're thinking, but as a man, it's the right way to start a family before starting a career, isn't it?"

"Don't think about solving everything by yourself before mentioning this matter. My granddaughter is not the kind of person who can't help you, understand?"

"I understand, grandma." Shi Ye recovered from the stupefaction just now, and nodded solemnly.

The meaning expressed by Grandma Yangzi just now is already obvious. Although they have already made a plan to protect Xia Mei, this is not something that can be completely resolved overnight. It is impossible for Xia Mei to wait until the hidden danger is completely resolved.

On the other hand, Xia Mei is not the kind of flower that needs to be protected in the greenhouse all the time, she is always growing, and she also has a shrewd and capable side to the outside world.

As the heir of the Kasaka family, the difficulties that Natsumi has to face are not only from those who covet Pandora. She needs to deal with all the open and dark arrows in the society. Excessive protection will kill her ability to deal with crises.

What should really be done is to rely on each other, put the difficulties encountered in front of both parties, bear and overcome together.

Therefore, the registration of marriage is the most important milestone in the life journey of him and Natsumi supporting each other to grow up.

And taking the opportunity of adopting Xiaosaki, it's probably time to tell Natsumi something...
