Conan's self-cultivation of fake wine

Chapter 359 It's Only At That Time

At two o'clock in the afternoon, Lu Ren drove the car to the gate of Didan Primary School and took Shiina Hua to the school's grove.

It is now the time for students to go on vacation, and there is basically no one in the school except for the faculty and staff who are on duty. Otherwise, as usual, Lu Ren's approach of parking directly near the school gate would definitely attract the traffic police and ask him to park his car elsewhere so that it would not affect the children's going to and from school.

Of course, it is also possible to attract someone who behaves like a gentleman but does not do his job properly.

On the way to the grove, Lu Ren suddenly thought of Officer Shiratiao. I don’t know how far his relationship with Xiaolin Chengzi has progressed. When they last met, Shiratori said that he had already struck up a conversation with Xiaolin. It's been so long now. If nothing else, they should have had dinner together, right?

The corner of Lu Ren's lips curled up subconsciously, and he said to Shiina Hana: "When I came here, I thought of a policeman. When I go back, I will tell you the love story of that policeman. It's quite interesting."

Shiina Hana: "Okay. Do you need me to keep this a secret?"

Lu Ren: "No need. To me, he is just a conversation piece. Didn't the Eastern Daily News publish a police love story some time ago? I wrote that too."

"Oh, oh." Shiina's mood suddenly became a little higher, and she said excitedly, "I know that, and my friend even called me specifically to tell me. She said it felt very romantic. It turned out to be you, Brother Ren, who wrote it."

"Romantic? Maybe. If you are also interested in that story, I will tell it to you when I have time. The newspaper has limited space, and their story is far from finished."

"Yeah!" Shiina Hana nodded sharply, and then asked, "Does this need to be kept secret?"

"No. It's just a conversation. As long as I don't mention it to you specifically, there's no need to keep it secret."

"understand!"

"Okay, let's talk about it when we get back. Now let's dress up a little bit." Lu Ren took out the marginal glasses from his pocket and put them on Shiina Hana. I put on a marginal mask.

A single piece of marginal person can weaken one's sense of existence by 50%. As long as they don't get close to Kinoshita, it's definitely enough to observe secretly from a distance.

Shiina Hana adjusted the frame of the mirror herself. She has a small face and big frames, which makes her wear a bit disproportionate. She didn't ask what the use of wearing it was, and followed Lu Ren, touching it together silently.

Although it is late autumn, the ginkgo trees in Didan Primary School are still lush. Every few meters on both sides of the road, there is a ginkgo tree with straight branches. It can be seen to the end at a glance. The sun shines through the leaves, and the eyes are full of golden color. The branches and leaves sway and rustle with the autumn wind. Ginkgo leaves are laid out in layers on the ground. The top layer is barely tender, while the leaves below are already fluffy and crispy, crunching when stepped on. It's like there is an air cushion holding the soles of your feet, giving you an unreal and illusive feeling.

Even more fortunately, there were no fallen ginkgo fruits on the ground. As Lu Ren said, the fruit has already fallen away.

This made Shiina Hana feel relieved. The beautiful scenery around her made her memories, or fantasies, become gentle and beautiful again. She lowered her head and felt that every leaf she looked at could be used to make a bookmark.

"It's a pity that I don't like reading." She muttered in a low voice.

They walked quietly for three to five minutes when they saw a white car parked under a tree, with a tall woman standing beside the car.

Gray folding hat + ear-length blond hair.

The moment he saw her, Shiina Hana instantly realized that they had come to the right place, and this was the person they were looking for. Too excited to speak or show it, Shiina Hua reached out and pinched Lu Ren's arm.

Lu Ren didn't act too aggressively. With the script in hand, he just glanced at Kinoshita, then slowly walked past her with Shiina Hana and walked deeper into the woods. Like an inconspicuous wisp of wind, neither the driver in the car nor she outside the car noticed the two of them.

Starting from Kinoshita's location, the two of them hid behind the third ginkgo tree, about ten meters away from Kinoshita.

"Brother Ren, you have a good figure and your arms are so strong, they are so hard that you can't even squeeze them."

"What idiot are you talking about?"

Shiina Hana laughed twice, not ashamed at all. She carefully poked half of her head out from behind the tree, glanced at Kinoshita, then quickly retracted her head and exclaimed in a low voice: "She looks so young, she really is..."

"Fifty, forty-nine to be exact. She does look very young." Lu Ren paused for a moment and added, "Maybe it's because she has never been married."

"Huh? How do you know?"

"I checked it online. She is the founder of the Fusha Hui brand." Lu Ren said casually. "As for the man sitting in the car, he is an employee of her company."

"Huh? There's someone else in the car?"

Lu Ren couldn't help but raise his forehead, "You have observed something."

The two were silent for a while, and Lu Ren continued: "Aren't you curious why not getting married makes people younger?"

"Oh why?"

"... To be precise, not having children may make women look younger. I don't know if there is any scientific basis for this. Personally, I feel that because you don't have to worry about taking care of children and your mind is not tired, aging will be slowed down. And If you don’t have children, your figure won’t be out of shape and you will look younger.”

Lu Ren gave an example, "My junior high school female chemistry teacher, her husband and her wife are from the DINK family. She looks very young, and she doesn't look like someone in their forties or fifties at all."

"Like this." Shiina Hana said thoughtfully, "Then I won't have children in the future."

"You can wait until you talk about this kind of thing later." Lu Ren sighed, "I still have something to add. My chemistry teacher has a very bad temper and often scolds people for the smallest things. She once finished scolding us and closed the door. , said very calmly, 'I am actually very jealous of you. I get angry when I see you. Because I don't have children myself. Sometimes I think that if I had children, they would be as old as you now.'

I was sitting in the front row and could clearly see her eyes were red when she finished saying this. Maybe she already regretted it. It’s just that time cannot be turned back. "

"Then I'd better have a baby."

"No, what I say to you is, 'I hope you will be more careful when making decisions.' Life is decided by yourself. Whether you get married and have children in the future, bring new life into this world. On. Or be a person who is infertile or even unmarriageable. The former is great, and the latter is blameless. Because that is your own life, a decision you made after careful and long-term thinking. The continuation of life is a The instinct of the group. If you go against your own instinct, then you must have something more important to do. I believe you."

"It's such a heavy topic." The leaves of Shiina Flower were wilted, and she drooped her head. "Let's talk about it in ten years. Let me worry about it then."

"Ah."

Three to five minutes later, Shiina Hana was resurrected with full health. "By the way, Brother Ren, you didn't say you wanted me to help you as a consultant. What is a consultant?"

"That's right." When it came to business, Lu Ren slowed down, "I'm wondering whether to get involved in this matter. Let them really be together."

Lu Ren, who is familiar with the script, knows that the two people in the original work finally chose to say goodbye, and the goodbye may be in the next ten years.

That scene was very romantic and heartwarming, but Lu Ren always felt a little pity.

Kinoshita has been waiting for the doctor for forty years, and there are still several more decades in a person's life to waste.

Shiina Hana then asked: "If you intervene, what are you going to do?"

"What I originally thought was to explain the situation to her now and convince her to follow the doctor together. The doctor is my elder, so that she can see that the doctor is trying to find her. After reading it, I will tell her that the doctor has not broken the contract. Every I have been waiting for her for ten years. Maybe it will happen directly."

Speaking of this, Lu Ren sighed, "But when I calmed down and thought about it carefully, it felt wrong again. Since the letter said it was a place of memories, the doctor never found it. Doesn't that mean that the doctor didn't take her to heart at all? ? Or the doctor thinks this matter is irrelevant. If so, wouldn't it be counterproductive?"

If you don't interfere, at least you have a guarantee.

If you intervene, you may lose everything.

"Relationships are ultimately a matter of two people. Outsiders should all stay aside." Lu Ren laughed at himself, "Good intentions may not necessarily bring about good results. Do you think so?"

"I, I don't know either." Shiina Hana stuttered a little at this time, "I can't bear this responsibility."

"It's okay, it's not your fault."

"But if it were me. Rather than looking forward and backward, worrying about this or that, I would prefer him to come directly to the appointment, no matter what the reason is for him to be late for forty years. Since I am willing to wait for him for forty years, it means that I have already I have already reached the corresponding realization. As long as I can see him, I think it is worth it. Even if it is just for one facet." Before she finished speaking, Shiina Hana added quickly, "Only for myself."

"What you said makes sense. It's just that we don't understand Kinoshita after all. Without solid basis, the hypothesis cannot be established. Forget it, let's be safe. I'll call the doctor and ask him to come over now."

"Ah."

Lu Ren still had some reasons in his heart that he couldn't explain to Shiina Flower.

Everyone around Conan has been involved in the vortex called the winery. If something unexpected happens, Lu Ren is confident to protect himself and Huiyuan, but for others, he is really powerless now.

If Kinoshita and the doctor really get married. The two even lived together. Then she will automatically be sucked into the winery vortex, whether she knows it or not.

But now, Lu Ren has changed his mind. Maybe it's because of the scenery here, maybe it's because of Shiina Hana's words, or maybe it's because he convinced himself.

Things like feelings are not something outsiders should worry about.

Lu Ren dialed Huiyuan's number, "Xiao Ai, I found the person you are looking for. She is under the ginkgo tree at Didan Primary School. Don't hang up yet. I have two things that I need you to convey. They are very important. . First, Kinoshita is unmarried, and the men of the same age around her are her subordinates. Second, let the doctor come alone. Don’t go with the five of you."

In the original work, Kinoshita misunderstood Conan and the others as the doctor's grandchildren, thinking that he had already married. In order not to make the doctor feel guilty, a stupid woman waited for him for forty years. Kinoshita lied, saying that the driver in the car was her lover, and was ready to bid farewell to the doctor and her youth in a dignified manner.

But the doctor may have finally seen through Kinoshita's lie and shouted to the car as it drove away, "I still like Ginkgo the best now!"

But they misunderstood after all. Lu Ren decided to kill this misunderstanding immediately. This was the only thing he could do.

After a while, the doctor answered the phone and only replied Lu Ren with one word.

"it is good."

ps1: I discovered a detail when I was reviewing it. The colors of the hats Kinoshita wore twice were different. Ten years ago hats were pink. Ten years later it’s gray. Perhaps this is a hint that she has accepted the fact that she is no longer young? Of course, these are all guesswork and nonsense. Don't take it seriously.

ps2: 02 ends and enters 03.
