Ke Xuezhuo's son-in-law

Chapter 562 Tongten Pavilion

After Fujiwara put Mary down, Mary, who had already turned around and was dizzy, couldn't steady her body. She staggered for two steps and fell directly to the ground.

Mary slowly got up from the ground, obviously still a little dizzy. Fujiwara walked over quickly and stretched out his hand to help her. His arms subconsciously wrapped around her shoulders, supporting her steadily. His concern was palpable, and his concern was not just polite, but genuine.

"Sorry, I really didn't expect it to make you faint." Fujiwara's voice contained a hint of apology, and his eyes flashed with tenderness and a little smile.

Mary gently pushed Fujiwara's arm away, making an angry expression, but soon, a smile appeared in her eyes, and it was obvious that she was not really angry. "Next time, at least make preparations for me." Although her voice was soft, there was a hint of determination.

Fujiwara nodded, patted his chest and promised, "I promise."

He gently put his arm around Mary's shoulders and carefully guided her back to sit on the sofa. He squatted at her feet and looked up at her, "You need some time to relax, or... let's go for a walk? The fresh air may make you feel better. I'll arrange a car to take you back after you're done. .”

Mary looked at him with a soft light in her eyes.

A trace of excitement flashed in Fujiwara's eyes, and the corners of his mouth raised unconsciously. Then he stood up, went back to the house and started to pack his luggage. While packing, he chatted:
  "Then it's settled, how about going to Osaka Castle? By the way, you can taste the local food. I heard that the teppanyaki is very delicious. Have you tried it, Mary?"

At this time, Mary also picked up the trophy on the ground and bumped it in her hand.

It's a bit heavy, so I guess it's all steel, with some gold foil or something like that coated on the outside.

She put the trophy back to its place and replied, "I don't know, I probably haven't eaten it, but are you sure this won't delay the business?"

If she remembered correctly, Fujiwara had some things to do, and she actually wanted to go back to rest early, preferably before dark.

"Of course not, don't worry." After speaking, Fujiwara opened his travel bag and began to sort out his clothes.

Lay the washed shirts out flat on the bed, carefully folding each piece in half to make sure they take up minimal space in your bag.
  "Okay, actually I don't have any other opinions."

Seeing what Fujiwara said, Mary seemed to have nothing to refuse, so just let him go. Although she didn't really like shopping in her heart, since Fujiwara wanted to go shopping, she should just go with him.

"The aroma of the teppanyaki and the wonderfulness of cooking are incredible. I think Mary will like it..." Fujiwara continued the conversation with Mary while cleaning up.

While chatting, Mary also returned to her room and started packing. She didn't bring many things this time and quickly packed everything. After checking that there were no forgotten items in the room, he closed the door and walked to Fujiwara's room.

After Fujiwara packed his luggage, he zipped it up and stood up. When he was about to take a rest, Mary knocked on the door.

"I'm ready to go."

"Okay, let's go then."

In this way, the two of them took a taxi from the entrance of the hotel to an avenue near Tsutenkaku Tower.

When Fujiwara got out of the car and looked at Tsutenkaku rising from the ground, the scene in which the fin de siècle magician Ricky Kidd made a high-pitched declaration under the moonlight came to mind.

"Speaking of which, the starting point this time is also Tsutenkaku. I wonder if Conan and the others can guess this in time."

The two of them walked into the ground floor of Tsutenkaku Tower. The first thing they saw was a dazzling array of souvenir shops and food stalls.

Fujiwara took Mari to try some authentic Osaka street food, such as takoyaki and grilled eel skewers.

Mary tried to pick up a steaming octopus ball with chopsticks and carefully put it into her mouth. The enthusiastic taste made her eyes light up. Maybe because she was too anxious, Mary was so burned that she didn't bite the ball and fell to the ground. Mary looked at the empty sign, then looked at the meatballs on the ground and fell into self-doubt. Just when Fujiwara was about to buy another bunch, the store saw that Mary hadn't eaten it, so he gave her another bunch.

This time Mary was smart and didn't eat in a hurry. Instead, she poked a huge hole with a stick and waited for the heat to dissipate before slowly eating in small bites.

Afterwards, the two bought tickets and entered the Tsutenkaku Tower. After arriving at the observation deck, they had a panoramic view of the entire Osaka city.

Fujiwara showed Mary the bustling area in the city center and Osaka Bay in the distance. Mary leaned against the railing, her eyes reflecting the outline of the city.

"That's Osaka Castle over there, we can go there later."

Fujiwara's finger pointed gently into the distance, through the high-rise buildings in the city center, to the ancient castle, Osaka Castle, which stood out among the modern buildings.

Mary followed Fujiwara's gesture and saw Osaka Castle standing majestically in the center of the green park. The castle's white exterior walls and green roof looked historic and vibrant under the sunlight.

"sounds good."

The two stopped for a while on the observation deck, and then they took the elevator down to the street and took the urban rail transit to Osaka Castle.

While driving, Fujiwara received several blessing text messages. Fujiwara read them in reverse, and they were all his acquaintances, including lawyer Xiaolan Yuanzi and others...

And the contents were pretty much the same, they were all saying congratulations and the like, especially the short text messages Xiao Ai sent.

Somewhat unexpectedly, Fujiwara opened the editor and sent Haihara Ai a ヽ(°▽°)ノ before closing the phone cover.

Arrive at Osaka Castle Park. Fujiwara and Mary walked through the park and walked on the path paved with bluestones. There are cherry blossoms and maple trees planted around. Although it is not the cherry blossom season, the green maple trees also give people a peaceful beauty.

Fujiwara vaguely remembered that it was late autumn and almost winter when he came to compete, but after the competition ended, it suddenly jumped to summer, and the weather was extremely hot.

Fujiwara saw smoothies being sold on the road and immediately bought two bowls to relieve the heat. The two of them did not rush to the city, but chose to find a chair in the park outside the city wall and sat down to finish the two bowls of smoothies.

Then Fujiwara felt the waistband of his pants vibrate and immediately took it out to look at it and found that Xiao Ai had written back.

Xiao Ai: (*''*)

It’s also a Japanese emoji, but Fujiwara doesn’t quite understand what it means.

Just as Fujiwara was wondering what this kaomoji meant, he suddenly saw an unexpected email.

[I think you already know that I am coming, so go to the appointment on time] - Vermont
  "Uh?"

Fujiwara suddenly broke out in a cold sweat when he saw the somewhat inexplicable email in front of him. Then he immediately clicked on the email address and saw that it was an email registered overseas. There was no phone number.

Since the beginning, he has been wary of getting involved with people from the black organization, so at first he didn't want to interfere too much with Kudo Shinichi's affairs, but then as his abilities improved, he gradually felt that the black organization was actually nothing. I'm so scared, it's just that it would be a bit troublesome if they stick to me.

He never liked causing trouble, but if necessary, he thought he would kill Xiao Ai and the others for their safety.

So don't ever end up in that situation...
