Science solves cases? No, I am an immortal cultivator!

"Okay, stop thinking about it. Now is our time."

As he spoke, Kitagawa Taki put his arms around Sonoko's slender waist.

Yuanzi hummed softly.

"There should be a fireworks show ahead, right?" Kitagawa Taki pointed to the large number of tourists gathered on the river bank not far away.

"Yes." Yuanzi looked up.

"Shall we go over and take a look?"

The two found a place to sit down by the river.

Yuanzi snuggled in Kitagawa Taki's arms, but sighed slightly in her heart.

Originally, she was planning to ask Kitagawa Taki about Xiaolan, but now how could she bear to destroy the beauty in front of her.

She was afraid that if she told it, she would lose Kitagawa Taki and Ran.

Yuanzi has known Lan since kindergarten and knows her too well, so she naturally saw clearly Lan's abnormal behavior some time ago.

Come to think of it, Lan had become a little strange since the explosion at the municipal building, especially in front of her.

Maybe it was from that time that Lan began to like this bad guy?

Thinking of this, Sonoko looked up at Kitagawa Taki.

Under the light, the angular face stood out particularly, as if it had been carefully carved.

Noticing Sonoko's gaze, Kitagawa Taki lowered his head and asked, "What's wrong?"

Yuanzi snuggled into Kitagawa Taki's arms and murmured, "It's okay, Taki, hold me tight."

Kitagawa Taki took the opportunity to hold Sonoko in his arms. He could feel that Sonoko must have something on her mind, but since Sonoko didn't want to talk about it, he wouldn't ask her any more questions.

Sonoko took a deep breath, feeling Kitagawa Taki's breath, and closed her eyes.

“That’s all…”

After a while, Sonoko was called by Kitagawa Taki.

The fireworks show has begun.

Fireworks rose into the sky, bloomed in the darkness, and were reflected on the calm water.

"It's so beautiful!" Yuanzi exclaimed.

……

After watching the fireworks show, it was almost eight o'clock.

The two planned to take a less crowded route back to the hotel, but they saw an acquaintance on the road.

"Isn't that Miss Akane, and Mr. Takahashi?" Sonoko pulled Kitagawa Taki's hand.

Kitagawa Taki turned his head and saw Katori Akane and Takahashi Junichi talking about something downstairs in an empty building. They were a bit far away and Kitagawa Taki couldn't hear them.

Yuanzi asked curiously, "Why are the two of them here?"

In just a short while, Junichi Takahashi and the other person had separated.

Jun'ichi Takahashi walked into the darkness, and Akane Katori seemed to see Taki Kitagawa and Sonoko, and ran away in panic.

Sonoko asked, "Taki, could they be?"

Kitagawa Taki knew what Sonoko wanted to say, which was whether Katori Akane had cheated on her. He shook his head, "Not necessarily."

Yuanzi hesitated and said, "They definitely know each other, but neither of them said it before..."

"You're not going to tell Ohga Shinya, are you?" Kitagawa Taki said, "I think we should talk to Katori Akane about the situation first and let her confess to Ohga Shinya herself. After all, they're getting married tomorrow."

This incident reminded Kitagawa Taki of the famous Sherlock Holmes story "The Dancing Little Man", a story that led to tragedy due to concealment.

Sonoko smiled and said, "Yeah, Taki is really thoughtful."

Ten minutes later, the two returned to the hotel.

The rooms were naturally arranged by the Ohga family. The best rooms were prepared for Kitagawa Taki and Sonoko, and they were right next to each other.

In the garden room.

Kitagawa Taki lay directly on the bed, "You go talk to Katori Akane, I won't go."

"it is good."

Sonoko looked at Kitagawa Taki shyly. Judging from Kitagawa Taki's attitude, he would definitely not go back to his room at night.

"Miss Qian, it's me."

Sonoko went straight to the door of Akane Katori's room and knocked.

There was no movement inside for a long time, and just when Yuanzi was about to give up, the door finally opened.

Akane Katori said, "Ms. Suzuki, please come in."

Sonoko followed Katori Akane into the room.

Akane Katori bit her lip and said, "Ms. Suzuki, did you and Mr. Kitagawa see it?"

Sonoko nodded.

"Actually, Mr. Takahashi and I have known each other for a long time. He was an apprentice at my father's glass factory, and we were even engaged. However, we haven't seen each other for over ten years!"

After saying this, Akane Katori felt relieved.

Yuanzi had not expected that the two had such a relationship, and asked again: "So, Miss Qian, who are you tonight?"

"I went to ask him what he was doing there," Katori Akane said, "and he told me he was here to watch the ceremony."

Yuanzi said: "So that's how it is. How can that be true?"

Katori Akane said with certainty: "I will explain it clearly to Shinya."

Sonoko nodded. She felt that as long as Katori Akane told the truth, Ohga Shinya would definitely not mind.

……

"Did you make it clear?"

Kitagawa Taki supported his head with his hands and looked at Sonoko and asked.

While Sonoko went to find Akane Katori, Kitagawa Taki had already taken a bath.

Now he was wearing a bathrobe.

"Yeah." Sonoko told Kitagawa Taki what happened between Akane Katori and her.

"I'll take a shower first."

After saying that, Yuanzi rushed into the bathroom as if escaping.

Looking at Sonoko's flustered look, Kitagawa Taki couldn't help laughing.

After waiting for about half an hour, Yuanzi came out of the bathroom.

Kitagawa Taki hugged Sonoko from behind and put his head on her round shoulders. He breathed in the faint fragrance greedily.

Sonoko's body trembled slightly, "Taki...why don't you turn off the lights first?"

Beichuan Taki bit Sonoko's ear and said, "Why turn off the lights? I want to watch you carefully."

In fact, whether the lights are turned off or not has no effect on Kitagawa Taki, but it is different for Sonoko.

"Hmm." Sonoko wanted to say something but was interrupted by Kitagawa Taki.

Kitagawa Taki untied the belt of Sonoko's bathrobe, and the bathrobe slowly slid to the ground.

After a while, the two of them were able to speak frankly to each other.

Sonoko's cheeks were flushed red, she pursed her lips tightly, looked up at Kitagawa Taki, and when her eyes met Kitagawa Taki's, she immediately closed her eyes.

Kitagawa Taki could clearly see Sonoko's trembling eyelashes.

Seeing that Yuanzi looked ready to be picked, Beichuan Taki smiled slightly and slowly kissed Yuanzi's forehead...

Under Kitagawa Taki's attack, Sonoko felt as if her bones had gone soft and her body was light.

It was not until she felt something strange on her feet that Sonoko suddenly opened her eyes.

"Taki, don't, there..."

Fortunately, Kitagawa Taki just gently pinched her arch and kissed the instep.

Sonoko breathed a sigh of relief. She thought Kitagawa Taki had some strange hobby.

After a long time, the two broke the previous distance.
