I, Kudo Shinichi, the rice flower death god

Especially after he showed his talent as a talented writer and handed over the copyright of his novel to the Suzuki Foundation as an agent, Shiro Suzuki and Tomoko Suzuki treated him as their own son.

I don't know if it was an illusion, but Shinichi always felt that these two people seemed to want to marry him.

But every time, a little angel bravely stands up.

"Aunt Suzuki, Shinichi and I are still in a hurry to see the garden, so I won't disturb you."

Xiaolan suddenly burst out with courage and pulled Shinichi out of Lady Suzuki's arms. She shielded him behind her like a baby, and then hurried upstairs with him.

"Oh, this girl is still so protective of her food!"

I don’t know if my little daughter, who is useless, can succeed?

Suzuki Tomoko crossed her chest with one hand and stroked her face with the other, thinking distressedly.

Whether it is the ability shown now or his future potential, Tomoko Suzuki is very excited.

The Suzuki Consortium, which has no male heir, can feel at ease if it can get such a son-in-law.

Unfortunately, my daughter doesn't seem to be very capable.

……

“Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuancyn[-]”You two go on a date and leave me sick at home alone, how pitiful I am!”

In Suzuki Sonoko's room, the second young lady with the anti-pyretic patch on her face was crying loudly. The desolate look of pear blossoms with rain was simply heartbreaking for those who heard it and shed tears for those who saw it.

"What a couple! Sonoko, stop talking nonsense!"

Xiaolan, who was sitting by the bed, blushed with embarrassment and waved her hands in panic.

If it weren't for the fact that Yuanzi was sick now, Xiaolan would have slapped her with a knife to shut her up.

"Okay, aren't you tired of shouting so loudly?"

Shinichi didn't have any objection to this title, it just exposed the girl's disguise.

She faked crying in front of the detective and cried in such an unprofessional way. She looked down upon him too much!

"Humph, you are all mean to me! I'm angry!"

The plan to gain sympathy failed. Yuanzi immediately stopped crying, angrily pulled up the quilt and hid his head in it.

I cried, I was pretending, what can you do to me·jpg

"It's not good to stay suffocated in the quilt when you have a cold."

Shinichi said helplessly after knocking Sonoko on the head through the quilt.

He's already so old and doesn't want to worry about it, really.

"Then you apologize!"

Sonoko, who was wrapped like a cat, poked out his little face from under the quilt and said threateningly.

"Otherwise I'll suffocate myself to death!"

Only this crazy girl can do it by threatening others with her own life.

"Okay, I apologize. I shouldn't have exposed Miss Sonoko. Please forgive me."

Shinichi cooperated with Sonoko and said lazily.

"And Xiaolan!"

The second young lady nodded with satisfaction, and then set her sights on Xiaolan again.

"Me? Do I want to apologize too?"

The little angel who had just recovered from his shyness asked confusedly.

"No, you have to accept the title I proposed before!"

Sonoko showed a plan-oriented expression.

"What's your name?"

Shinichi's curiosity was also aroused. Could it be that the two of them did something interesting before he came back?

"Of course, ahem, Mrs. Kudo!"

Sonoko announced the answer loudly, but unfortunately her coughing made her tone weaker.

"You said it!"

Xiaolan, who was so ashamed that she completely forgot that her friend in front of her was still sick, pounced on him viciously.

The two girls were playing and playing in only the clothes, and the little bits of holy light that appeared from time to time made Shinichi on the side watch it with excitement and couldn't bear to interrupt.

Xiaolan was just fine after taking off her coat. Yuanzi, who was lying on the bed because of a cold and fever, was only wearing thin pajamas and was a little messy.

I didn’t expect this crazy girl to grow up well.

A few minutes later, Xiaolan panted slightly and sat back on the chair next to the bed.

And poor Yuanzi, because of the fight just now, his condition seems to have worsened.

At this moment, the second young lady was frowning, enduring the torture of the disease, and even the hot breath she exhaled was visible to the naked eye.

"Well, it feels so uncomfortable! My brain, my brain is going to explode!!"

She pinched the edge of the quilt with both hands, and Shinichi could tell just from her voice that the second young lady was suffering indescribable pain at the moment.

Chapter 5 People with ghosts in their hearts

　　"Yuanzi, are you alright?"

Although they were still fighting just now, they were good sisters who grew up together after all. Xiaolan looked at the painful Yuanzi worriedly.

"Don't worry, it's just a minor cold. You'll be fine."

Shinichi stood next to Xiaolan, comforting the anxious little angel.

A common cold is not dangerous. You can just take medicine and rest for a few days, but you have to deal with it yourself, and even the second daughter of the Suzuki family is no exception.

Complications such as dizziness, dry mouth, and body aches are enough to make a person incapacitated and uncomfortable.

"I'm going to get a basin of water, and I'll leave the garden to you for the time being!"

Even so, Xiaolan still wanted to do something.

At the very least, she could still wipe the body of a patient with fever and sweating.

"poor guy."

Shinichi's eyes softened a little.

He looked at Sonoko who was drowsy on the bed and unresponsive to the outside world, then looked at the room where there was no one else but the two of them, and silently stretched out his hand and pressed it on Sonoko's forehead.

It was indeed very hot, it must have exceeded 39°C.

In his memory, the girl who had always been full of energy and rarely shed tears would rarely be so weak.

"Bound Dao No. 25 - Heal!"

In Shinichi's sight, light yellow spiritual power gathered in his palm, spreading to Sonoko's whole body with a special rhythm.

The painful Yuanzi gradually calmed down in this faint light, and his frowning brows relaxed, obviously feeling much better.

"I've used it after a long time, and it seems to be working well."

Withdrawing his hand, Shinichi nodded with satisfaction.

It is indeed one of the first skills I redeemed. Whether it is practicality or effect, it is first-class!

When he was a child, when he took Xiaolan and waited for the naughty children, he would inevitably get bumped into each other or catch a cold or something. It was only because of this skill that he was not drowned out by the children's cries.

However, there is still a disadvantage, that is, the special effects light is too eye-catching.

When Xiaolan and the others were young, it was easy to say that they could just prevaricate and get a wave of admiring looks from the little brats.

But as age and intelligence increase, it becomes increasingly difficult for them to fool them.

Up to now, Shinichi has not used this skill on others for several years.

"I am back!"

A few minutes later, Xiaolan returned to the room with a basin of hot water, picked up a towel, and prepared to help her best friend wipe away her sweat.

however……

"Shinichi, please go out first."

Seeing someone who was unaware of the presence of the old god, Xiaolan had no choice but to start chasing people away.

"Oh, we obviously took bath together when we were little...I'm going downstairs first!"

Shinichi, who had just begun to reminisce about the happy times of his childhood, looked at Xiaolan's eyes that were so shameful and angry that he wanted to kill someone. He obediently shut his mouth and walked out of the room, closing the door behind him.

Really, we used to clamor to take a shower together, why are we so shy now?

"Really! Huh? Why does Yuanzi seem not to feel so uncomfortable?"

Stomping her feet angrily, Xiaolan returned her attention to her good sister, only to realize that something was different about her.

His face became much calmer, his frown relaxed, and there was even a smile on his lips.

It seems that this has happened before!

Gently helping Yuanzi up and changing out of her sweat-stained pajamas, Xiaolan wiped her body while recalling it in her mind.

When exactly is it?

……

"Shinichi, how is the garden?"

Shinichi, who had nothing to do, was admiring the paintings on the wall in the corridor, when a fat middle-aged man came up to him.

"The garden is fine, Uncle Shirou."

Shinichi also greeted him familiarly.

Although the man in front of you looks approachable and affable, in fact, he is the talker of the Suzuki family and the chairman of the Suzuki Foundation, Suzuki Shiro.

"That's good. By the way, this is Mr. Seba, a friend of mine."
