Conan: Science Cartoonist Kudo Yuji

Chapter 248 Kaori's Family

"The cherry blossoms here are really beautiful."

Picking up a thick egg with chopsticks and just about to put it in his mouth, Yuji was stopped by Kaori and looked at the girl pitifully.

"No, no. I can only give you liquid food for a week."

He took out a small bowl of white porridge from the food box and handed it to Yuuji. The girl stared at him and ate the rice while thinking about it, and then took out a handkerchief from her pocket to wipe his face.

"Really, it feels like you've been hospitalized for the past few days, Yuji, and your life skills have deteriorated a lot. How can you drink porridge all over your face?"

Sitting blankly on the picnic mat, looking at the flirting boys and girls opposite, Ooka Momiji looked at Sakura enviously with chopsticks in her mouth.

The sun is not strong today, and the comfortable breeze stirs the branches, knocking down the pink and white cherry blossoms.On the green ground, the cherry blossoms ran away again, clearing the way for passers-by.

"But if you're going to see Grandpa Nan, you'd better be careful." Momiji Ooka suddenly said, causing Yuji to look back from the cherry blossoms.

"Indeed, Master Nan is indeed a fierce old man." Iori nodded, making Yuji even more uneasy.

Generally speaking, would one use ferocious to describe an old man...

"How did Ooka-senpai know Nan...Master?" Yuji sat upright, staring at Ooka Momiji seriously.

"My grandfather and Grandpa Nan used to be childhood sweethearts, so Xiaoxiang and I have known each other very early."

Another evil childhood sweetheart, the childhood sweetheart of the two old men?I remember Ooka Momiji's grandfather was the former prime minister...

Seeing Iori, Ooka Momiji and Kaori's expressions became ugly, Yuji suddenly broke out in cold sweat, pointed behind his back, and signaled with his eyes.

【behind me? 】

After the three of them nodded at the same time, the young man turned his head slowly and met Master Nan who was standing behind him.

The old man looked at Yuji gloomily, then glanced at Kaori sitting next to him, and grinned, scaring the boy half to death.

"came back?"

"Hi."

Holding on to his crutches, Nan Masamune greeted Ooka Hongye: "How is that old man from your family?"

Standing up, Ooka Momiji and Iori bent down at the same time, and said respectfully: "Thanks to you, grandfather is in good health."

After waving his hand, Nan Zhengzong snorted, "It's all thanks to me, you don't have to say such things in front of me. By the way, I drew something new, and I will ask someone to bring it back to him later."

After all, the old man glanced at Yuji, turned around and walked towards the car in the distance under the protection of bodyguards.

"Let's go, let's go home." After a pause, Nan Zhengzong added: "That kid, you come too."

Yuji, who didn't dare to breathe and didn't want to admit that he was scared by this old man, held on to the grass and tried to stand up, but found that his legs were weak.

It's strange, the muzzle of the gun is aimed at him without changing his face, why is his leg weak after being stared at by the old man.

Rejecting Kaori's help, Yuji stood up against the tree trunk and followed with gritted teeth.

"It looks like your house won't be peaceful tonight."

Looking at Yuji's back full of pity, Koyo Ooka shook his head, watching Iori pick up the leftovers on the ground.

"too slow."

Sitting in the back seat of the car, seeing Yuji slowly approaching, Nan Masamune rolled down the car window and stared at the boy coldly: "Are you injured?"

"It's nothing, it's not something worth talking about." In order to save his breath, Yuji puffed up his chest. Just as he was about to say that he was fine, he heard Minami Masamune say.

"Since this is the case, young people should exercise. I will ask the driver to drive slowly. You can run behind us."

"Grandpa!" Pushing Yuji away, Kaori stood in front of the car window with her hips crossed, her eyes narrowed, her hair seemed to be floating up.

"Yuji was injured, how could you do that!"

After giving his granddaughter a blank look, Nan Zhengzong pointed to the front and asked the two to get in the car quickly.

"No need, I'll run behind." Frowning, Yuji handed the backpack to Kaori, and made a gesture of invitation to Nan Masamune.

Are you kidding me? If I get in the car, will I be able to raise my head in front of the Nan family in the future?

Seeing the car starting slowly, the boy started running slowly. Although his stomach hurt a little, it was bearable. However, he had been drinking porridge these days and couldn't keep up with his nutrition. Yuji felt very hungry.

After running around a few corners, he vaguely saw Conan walking on the road with his chin in his hands. Yuji put on the hat on the back of his clothes, held his stomach and continued running.

"Yuji has a gunshot wound on his stomach. Grandpa, please let him come up."

Looking at her grandfather with his eyes closed, Xiangori shook Nan Masamune's shoulder, but was slapped off by the old man.

"When Ooka was attacked by a killer before, I also helped him block bullets, and even ran for a while with him behind his back."

Nan Masamune took out a piece of information from the side interlayer, glanced at it and threw it between Kaori and himself.

"It's just that he was hit in the appendix. How can he be so delicate? And he has been raised for three days. If he really got into the car just now, I don't agree with what he said about you."

What, this stubborn old man?

Seeing his granddaughter turning her head in distress from time to time, Nan Zhengzong still relaxed a little: "You don't need to feel sorry for him too much, I will let him come up after the next intersection."

"Sir, he has fainted."

"What? Stop!"

Opening the car door and getting out of the car on crutches, Nan Masamune watched his granddaughter fall on top of the fainted boy, crouched beside him, and pinched Yuji's wrist with her hand.

"Yuji...did he faint from the pain of the wound?" Kaori held the boy's head and stared angrily at her grandfather's face: "If something goes wrong with him, I won't go home!"

Slowly putting down Yuji's hand, Nan Masamune instructed the bodyguards to carry the boy into the car, looked helplessly at the crying granddaughter, and knocked the ground with his cane.

"He fainted from starvation."

"Hungry... dizzy from hunger?!" Rubbing her eyes stopped, Xiangori looked at her grandfather in surprise, and suddenly understood: "Isn't three small bowls of porridge a day enough?"

Didn’t you say you shouldn’t eat too much after appendix surgery?

"You really, no wonder his footsteps are so fluttering. I thought there was something wrong with his style."

Shaking his head, Nan Zhengzong walked towards the car instead of looking at his granddaughter.

.........

Another unseen ceiling.

Opening his eyes, looking at the structure of the classic Japanese room, Yuji raised his head to his forehead and saw the IV needle inserted into the back of his hand.

Behind the head, there is a drip drip hanging high, and the words glucose can be clearly seen.

"Ah, you're awake!"

The door of the Japanese room was opened, and a girl in a kimono walked in from the outside. She looked about 12 years old, and she looked like Kaori, with typical black and straight.

She knelt down next to Yuji's head with a tray, her eyes widened as she watched the boy sit up on the tatami and handed over the porridge in the tray.

"Although it's just white porridge, it contains a lot of high-end ingredients. It's fished out later, but it tastes good."

Taking the spoon from her, Yuji dug into the porridge bit by bit, and asked curiously, "It's delicious. Are you Kaori's younger sister, haven't you heard her mention it?"

"This, it's about the same." The girl twirled her hair with her fingers: "I'm Xiaoxiang's mother."

Continuing to eat porridge, Yuji ordered, and suddenly froze.

"Eh!!!"
