Stay away from Conan.

"It can't be helped. The reservations accepted by Dad's restaurant have been scheduled until next year. No wonder Dad is so busy. I shouldn't be willful to Dad...

"Huh? You said you were sorry for not being able to participate in my father's visit day and sports meeting before? Haha, why bring this up now. My favorite father when I was cooking was my favorite since I was a child.

"Well, yes, so it doesn't matter... What! The box of wine I received before was sent by my father to celebrate our engagement! I'm so happy... Well, Dad should also pay attention to his health..."

One after another, Gao Yuan, who seemed to be intermittent, probably heard that Hanon Shimabara, who was on the phone inside, seemed to have hung up the phone, so Gao Yuan was about to send the food in at this time.

However, at this moment, before Gao Yuan pushed open the door of the lounge, through the crack of the door, Gao Yuan saw Kanon Shimabara inside the room and burst into tears——

This……

Noticing the situation inside the house, Gao Yuan, who originally thought he would go in, couldn't help hesitating——

It's not good to go in when people are crying...

However, it's really pitiful. Not only can my father not come to his engagement party, he may not even have time to come to the wedding...

As a wedding that may only happen once in a lifetime...

Thinking in this way, Gao Yuan suddenly recalled what he had seen and heard before, and seemed to feel that this might not be the case. Maybe Miss Shimabara Kanon may not have just this wedding in her life, so...

Isn't that more pitiful?

Thinking of this, Gao Yuan showed helplessness, not knowing what to do.

But at this moment, as if she had noticed the movement in the house, Kanon Shimabara quickly wiped the tears on her face, then walked towards the door in a panic, and opened the door at once, seeing the person standing at this moment. Gao Yuan outside the door.

In this regard, being caught off guard by Shimabara Kanon in this way, Gao Yuan looked embarrassed, and could only point to the dinner plate in his hand, and said:
"It was the new doctor who asked me to deliver the food..."

"okay……"

Seeing this, he found that the person standing at the door was someone he didn't know, but because Takato mentioned Shinde Tomoaki, Shimahara Kanon just smiled awkwardly, nodded, and was about to take it. The plate in Gao Yuan's hands——

"Hey? Are you... Mr. Zhiyuan Gaoyuan?"

"Uh……"

Some surprises, I didn't expect the other party to call out my name, but I didn't know the specific situation, so Gao Yuan hesitated for a moment, then nodded and replied:

"Yes, I am wise and lofty."

"Wow! I know you, and I've read about your deeds on the news! I didn't expect two famous detectives to come to my engagement party..."

In this way, seeing Gao Yuan admitting, Shimabara Kanon seemed to be very excited and said:
"It's a pity that Kudo Shinichi didn't come, otherwise it would be perfect..."

Mumbling, Shimabara Kanon muttered something in a low voice, and then said to Gao Yuan:
"You are so welcome to my engagement party!"

"Uh... It's an honor to be here at such a great party..."

In this regard, facing the other party's enthusiastic attitude, Gao Yuan was at a loss for a while, so he could only reply like this.

Then, looking at the dinner plate in his hand, Gao Yuan couldn't help passing it over immediately, and Hanon Shimahara, who looked very happy, also happily took the plate, opened the lid on it, and See inside is a plate of curry——

"Ah! It's the 'after-dinner curry' made by Kensuke. This is my favorite!"

Looking at the curry on the plate, Hanon Shimahara said happily, and then planned to bring the plate into the lounge——

"Ah, by the way, Mr. Wise, can I ask you to do me a favor?"

Suddenly, Shimabara Kanon seemed to have thought of something, and asked Gao Yuan...

……

"Uh...it's really heavy..."

Coming out of the warehouse in the basement, Gao Yuan, who was carrying a case of imported wine, climbed up the stairs. It seemed a little strenuous, so he temporarily put the case of wine at the corner of the stairs, and took a short rest——

"This is treating me as a coolie..."

Just now, Gao Yuan agreed to Shimoshimabara Kanon's request, hoping that Gao Yuan would go to the warehouse in the basement and move the box of foreign wine to the party scene.

However, this case of wine is still a bit heavy to move.

"No, the party is about to start, hurry up..."

Thinking of this, Gao Yuan took a little rest, and continued to lift the box, and was about to walk up——

"Isn't that okay? Then I will have to give birth."

However, just as Gao Yuan passed by the corner of the first floor, across a corridor, from the back door of the restaurant, Yasuda Nana's voice came.

"Ok?"

Unexpectedly, it was just a guess at first, but Gao Yuan couldn't help feeling depressed when he heard Yasuda Nana say such words directly.

But looking back, I saw Nana Yasuda and Kensuke Motogi at the back door, chatting quietly about something at the moment——

"I won't trouble you..."

Feeling a bit sad, Yasuda Nana said so——

"This topic is too heavy... Before being discovered, it's better to sneak away quickly..."

Since the parties involved are not his friends, this kind of emotional entanglement related to privacy, as an outsider's standpoint, Gao Yuan thought in his heart, lifted the box vigorously, tried not to make a sound, and left here quickly...

……

Soon, after moving the box of wine to the back kitchen, not long after, Yasuda Nana also came to the back kitchen. There was not much time left before the party started, so seeing Gao Yuan here, Yasuda Nana asked Gao Yuan to do it. Some final deployment work.

As for Gao Yuan, he put aside what he had seen and heard just now, as if nothing happened, nodded in agreement, and began to move the meals, wine glasses, tableware and other things that had been prepared in the back kitchen to the outside hall, Arrange these items according to the specifications of the buffet.

At the same time, the tables in the hall had been arranged by Xinde Zhiming, forming a circle with a large space in the middle for people to stand.

And it started from the stairs on the second floor, covered with a red carpet, directly passed through the circle surrounded by the tables, and did not end until it reached the wall of the hall.And on the wall at the end of the red carpet, the slogan of the engagement party was posted.

All the tables are now filled with flower baskets and balloons.

The whole hall looks like a very lively atmosphere, and everyone who came to this party seems extremely happy at the moment, waiting for the arrival of the two engaged newcomers——

"Ah, where did you go? Why do you look so tired?"

At this moment, after finally finishing her work and returning to the crowd attending the party, Xiao Ai saw the figure of Gao Yuan who had disappeared for a long time, so she couldn't help walking to his side, and asked a little coldly.

"Just a little help..."

There is nothing physically tired, but what he saw and heard just now really made Gao Yuan feel very tired in his heart, so he replied with some helplessness.

At this time, Shinde Tomoaki, who is the party emcee, was on standby at the side bar. The service team leader Yasuda Nana observed the situation of the venue, and saw that everyone attending the party was enthusiastically standing on both sides of the red carpet of the venue. At the same time, the two protagonists were ready, Yasuda Nana gave the signal to Shinde Tomoaki to start.

So Shinide Chiaki pressed the button of the CD player behind the bar, and the melodious melody of Mozart's opera "The Marriage of Figaro" sounded in the venue——

"Ladies and gentlemen, today's two protagonists are about to appear, let us welcome them with warm applause!"

Shinide Chiaki walked out from behind the bar with the microphone in hand, pointing to the stairs leading to the second floor in the hall——

At this moment, with the applause of the crowd participating in the party, everyone's eyes focused on the stairs...

This engagement party has begun... (End of this chapter)
