Conan: The Mechanic

Chapter 513: - Consciousness at all costs

"Why does it have to be like this?" Just after Ayumi picked up the kettle she was carrying and took a sip of the drink inside - with the help of the auxiliary unit, Chiba confirmed the existence of leaf-like objects, which should be tea leaves. What. "Go to sleep when you're tired, your health is important."

"No need," Ayumi took a sip of tea and just shook her head, revealing a faint smile. "Time is running out, I have to fully master astronomical observation skills in the shortest possible time."

"..." Qianyu frowned, because the smile he saw on Ayumi's face was obviously full of tiredness, and she was now in a state of desperate effort. "You can come again tomorrow, why..."

"It doesn't matter how tired you are," Ayumi still just shook her head. "As long as you can persist in the past few days, it's enough, and everything will be fine after that."

"You—" Conan's figure appeared in Qianyu's mind for no reason. "Who do you want to master astronomical observation skills during astronomical observation? If you plan to watch it yourself, Uncle Jiroji will play the real-time footage of the telescope on the airship non-stop in the movie screening room."

"As you guessed," Ayumi's eyes narrowed into crescent shapes. "That's why I have to take every minute to practice and become familiar with the whole process."

The content of the riddle that Chiba and Ayumi played was not difficult to guess, because Ayumi had talked to Chiba about similar things that night before, so Chiba guessed that this possibility was just a matter of divergent thinking—no doubt, She did all this just for Conan, perhaps to be able to observe with Conan in person with a small telescope that day, or maybe it was something else, in short, it was certain that she did all this to accompany Conan and more Close to Conan and serve.

"Are you going to resume your practice soon?" Chiyu asked.

"Hmm—" Ayumi thought for a while, then looked at Honda.

"Don't look at me," Honda immediately shook his head. "In fact, you have already learned the skills of manipulating the entire telescope today, and you just need some theoretical supplements and practical connections, so there is nothing to teach you today, and it may be better to chat with this little guy. value."

"Okay," nodded regretfully, and Ayumi looked at Chiba. "Qianyu, why did you come to see me?"

"Just to confirm some things," Qianyu shrugged. "But it's basically confirmed, I just want to confirm the interesting details, things about the purpose of all this you are doing."

"what do you wish to ask?"

"Are you doing all this for Conan?" Qianyu asked. "The ultimate goal is to be with Conan?"

"Yes." Ayumi nodded.

"So, your specific plan is—" Qianyu glanced at the astronomical telescope. "Although I already understand what you are doing, I am still not quite sure of your specific thoughts and how you want to achieve this goal."

"I'm not quite sure either," Ayumi said with a look of anticipation. "But—just try to make yourself better, and then don't give up any chance to be with Conan, maybe that's it. Then it's better to go to the same school as Conan in middle school, and finally get his after a long time of hard work. Accept it, and move on."

"What if Conan didn't respond to you in the end?" Chiyu asked. "I mean, what would you do if he didn't respond to you in the end?"

"Why didn't you respond?" Ayumi asked rhetorically. "Why won't Conan respond to me if I do my best at everything?"

"..." Qianyu was silent.

Perhaps, if you try to be the best, you can indeed get the best result, but the best result is only for yourself, and it never means that the best result is a perfect result. Ayumi's opponent in the process of improving herself may only be her talent and energy, but in the process of pursuing Conan... Is the opponent she faces really something she can fight against? Moreover, even if Ayumi can really seize some chance and get Conan's response, how can she solve the age difference between the two?

This is only considering Ayumi alone. If you add Maurilan... two people pursue one person at the same time, then they can hardly get a perfect ending at the same time, and there will always be one person who will end up in unforgettable pain.

"You have to understand, there are some things..." Qianyu chose her words carefully. "Some things won't get you the results you want if you don't work hard. Do you understand what I mean? Some things are planned by people and things are done by God. Hard work can't decide everything."

This time, Ayumi, who seemed to understand, but didn't seem to understand, was silent, while Chiba looked at him quietly.

After a long time, Ayumi finally answered.

"Perhaps, it might be like this," Ayumi's mood was a little low when she said this, but it quickly rose again. "But, I want to try it out!"

"?" Qian Yu raised her eyebrows.

"Anyway, I want to give it a try," Ayumi said in a firmer tone. "I don't want to wait a long time, when Conan has disappeared from my life, and I'll lie in bed and bemoan why I didn't take the chance that might exist."

"I don't regret failure because I don't, and I don't fear failure because I worry about failure," Ayumi continued. "What I'm afraid of is shrinking from cowardice and eventually losing the chance to even try."

"I want to try and work as hard as I can to make myself worthy of his wisdom, so that my heart can connect with his heart. Even...even if I don't get the results I hoped for in the end, I hope I can Do what I can - I believe that it is never shameful for a soldier to die on the road of a decisive charge." When he said this, Ayumi unconsciously grabbed the neckline and clenched it tightly. "Whether I succeed or fail in the end, I just hope I can do it without regrets."

"..." Qianyu was silent.

Perhaps the final tragic failure is indeed bitter, but if you completely give up the chance to fight to the death in Allin's way, and finally choose to retreat, then this is probably not a wise choice that can avoid failure - for some people. For human beings, disarming and surrendering may torture them physically and mentally more than being smashed to pieces.

Perhaps, there is no need to persuade Ayumi anymore. Respect her wishes and let her go is what Qianyu should do now.

For me, these so-called supporting characters are also part of the whole article, so I will try to give them a proper ending - whether it is Fujiwara, Ayumi, or Hoshino Kaede.
