"Well, I'll be leaving first. I have to go back to Chiba tomorrow." Shizuka Hiratsuka stood up from the sofa and was about to leave immediately, but she paused for a moment, then turned around, walked up to Conan in his surprised eyes, and touched his head.
"Don't worry so much. Even if the sky falls, I'll be there to support you."
Without giving Conan an answer, Shizuka Hiratsuka nodded to Dr. Agasa and quickly left the room.
"Xiao Jing." Dr. Agasa shook his head slightly, holding the coffee and looking at Conan with emotion.
"Shinichi, it's really an honor for you to have Xiaojing as an elder."
"I know, Dr. Agasa."
"I've always thought so."
Chapter 281: Our Family is Pretty Ordinary
"Really? You guys will be here around noon."
Sitting on the sofa, wearing a simple skirt and a beige thin sweater, Sachiko Hiratsuka was holding the phone in the living room with a faint smile on her face.
"Well, lunch is ready, and I plan to take them out for a quick bite, then stroll around Chiba. We'll probably be back home around dusk."
"Okay, then I'll prepare the dinner in the evening. Just call me when you are about to go home." She nodded gently. It must be said that when it comes to not involving Shizuka Hiratsuka's troubles, Sachiko Hiratsuka has always been a very gentle image.
"Don't worry, we can drive back by ourselves. It will be convenient to go anywhere."
"Really?" Blinking her eyes slightly, Sachiko Hiratsuka hesitated for a moment before speaking to Shizuka Hiratsuka.
"Well, Xiaojing, I remember you mentioned once before that your foreign friend named Koko seems to have a very unusual identity."
"Oh, yes." Shizuka Hiratsuka on the other end of the phone was also stunned for a moment, then laughed awkwardly.
After all, because she was worried about scaring her parents, Shizuka Hiratsuka did not tell them Koko's real identity, but just made up a similar identity.
Well, she is the eldest daughter of a 'family' from abroad.
Well, you see, if she were an arms dealer, it would be a bit worrying, but if she were the eldest daughter of a foreign family, things would be easier. After all, Hiratsuka Shizuka's family is itself a large local society, and the composition is similar.
"Really? Then I get it. Just go home directly when the time comes. My family will make good preparations for the reception." Without asking too many questions, Sachiko Hiratsuka just responded with a smile, and then she put down the receiver only after Shizuka Hiratsuka hung up the phone on her own initiative.
"What did Xiaojing say?" As soon as I put down the receiver, a steady voice sounded from the door of the living room.
She raised her head with some amusement and looked at Hiratsuka Shengli, who was standing at the door in casual clothes but looked very majestic. Hiratsuka Sachiko glanced at him unhappily.
"If you want to talk to your daughter, just come here yourself. There's no point in hiding at the door and listening. You don't really think you can maintain your so-called fatherly authority, do you? If Xiaojing wants to know something, just go to Uncle Fushan and act like a spoiled child. What else can you hide?"
"Ahem, damn Fukuyama, sooner or later I will let him retire and go home to enjoy his retirement." Hiratsuka Shengli, with a somewhat embarrassed look on his face, walked over to sit next to Hiratsuka Sachiko, after a moment of uneven breathing.
"Okay." Looking at Hiratsuka Seungri who was silently looking at her, Sachiko Hiratsuka shook her head helplessly.
Why is her husband such a daughter slave? From childhood to adulthood, she has always been the one to teach Hiratsuka Shizuka a lesson. If it were left to Hiratsuka Sei, his stern face would last less than two minutes before a silly smile would appear. If Hiratsuka Shizuka called out "Dad" in a wronged manner, Hiratsuka Sei would probably be so heartbroken that he would pick Hiratsuka Shizuka up and coax her while glaring at him, shouting something like "Xiao Jing is not wrong!"
Even though his daughter is already so old, he is still worried about her. He is too embarrassed to take the initiative to call Xiaojing to ask about the situation. He just sits aside pretending nothing happened while he is on the phone. His ears are almost perked up.
"Xiao Jing said they would be back around dusk and would play in downtown Chiba for a while."
"Is that so?" He nodded slightly. After getting the information he wanted, Hiratsuka Victory regained his composure.
"I remember Xiaojing said that the friend who is coming this time is also from a club, right?" With a slight flicker in his eyes, as if he thought of something, Hiratsuka Shengli turned his head and asked Hiratsuka Sachiko.
"Yes, what's wrong?" Her eyebrows raised slightly, and Sachiko Hiratsuka didn't know what weird thing her husband was going to do next.
"It's nothing. It's just that since they are colleagues visiting my home, as Xiaojing's father, I can't let Xiaojing fall behind." Hiratsuka Katsuri, who was sitting steadily on the sofa with his hands on his knees, had a serious expression on his face. The aura of the head of the largest gang in Chiba area burst out at this moment.
"...As long as you are happy." With a subtle blink of her eyes, Sachiko Hiratsuka stood up from the sofa and prepared to arrange the dinner.
"Remember to go home early in the evening, don't let the guests get home first."
"I know." Nodding slowly, Hiratsuka Victory watched Hiratsuka Sachiko leave the living room, sat on the sofa and thought for a moment, then resolutely took out his mobile phone.
"Hey, it's me."
"Tell Shirai to bring the fighting personnel to my house this evening and remember to have them dressed in uniform and neatly."
"It wasn't a plan. Xiaojing brought her friend over to play at my house. That friend's family is also involved in a club, and I thought I couldn't let them down."
"Yes, I know you can understand me, Akatang. I will leave it to you without any worries! Okay!"
He hung up the phone contentedly. After turning off the phone, Hiratsuka Katsuri looked at his face reflected on the screen and thought for a while.
"Should I get a haircut?"
. . .
"This is the first time I've visited a friend's house like this~"
Looking at Shizuka Hiratsuka with a smile, Koko, who was sitting in the car, was wearing different clothes than when she went out during the day.
Shizuka Hiratsuka hadn't noticed it before, but after she brought them to a shopping center in Chiba that she often visited, Shizuka Hiratsuka and Rem and the others just stared at each other blankly. They didn't know when they reached a consensus, and after visiting a few stores recommended by each of them, they each bought a dress that was a bit like a dress.
"Don't take it so seriously. My family is not a noble family, so there is no need to be so particular." Shizuka Hiratsuka shook her head in amusement. She didn't expect Koko to choose to dress like this.
"And Fujiko, you didn't wear this kind of clothes when you came to my house before, so you seem a little strange this time."
"We can't let Miss Koko wear this alone. My dear Jing, you don't like wearing this kind of skirt, so I have to do it~" Fujiko smiled and looked at Shizuka Hiratsuka and blinked.
"Hmm?" Shizuka Hiratsuka's eyes moved slightly and glanced at Fujiko.
"Oh, it's Xiaojing~" Fujiko smiled and tapped her lips, showing an apologetic smile.
"It's up to you." With a light snort, Shizuka Hiratsuka, who was leading the way, skillfully drove the car to the front gate of her house and then stopped.
"I've already said that ours is a very ordinary family. There's no need to be so..."
Before she finished her words, Shizuka Hiratsuka saw the iron gate slowly open inward, and then two teams of people wearing black suits and sunglasses ran in neatly from both sides of the courtyard, and soon stood in a neat line on both sides of the road leading from the gate to the residence.
"greeting!"
"Welcome home, Miss!"
"Welcome everyone!"
Chapter 282:276 What do you think of Yang Nai?
"..."
Shizuka Hiratsuka stared blankly at the two rows of men in suits who seemed to be welcoming guests, and her mind was confused for a moment.
Shizuka Hiratsuka was not unfamiliar with these people. They were all members of her own club, the 'Shoujing Group'. Apart from anything else, the person who just shouted 'Greetings' in front of everyone else was the one that Shizuka Hiratsuka would call uncle. It was none other than Shirai Qi, the combat leader of the Shoujing Group.
Then, Shizuka Hiratsuka turned her eyes slightly and looked at the man in a suit who was leading the group on the other side.
Well, the Shoujing Group’s military advisor, chief steward, Chitang Feng is here too.
"Xiao Jing? Is this what you call an ordinary family?" Looking at Shizuka Hiratsuka's dull expression with amusement, Fujiko reached out and touched Shizuka Hiratsuka's face, but there was also some surprise in her eyes.
Although I had carefully investigated Shizuka Hiratsuka's information before and knew that her family was part of a club, I had never seen such a scene when I visited her home last time. Hiratsuka Victory and Hiratsuka Sachiko also behaved kindly and benevolently. What happened this time?
"Jing... Is this Neon's ceremony to welcome guests?" Koko blinked curiously. So many people suddenly appeared, but she was not afraid. Instead, she felt inexplicably excited.
"No, I don't know either." Scratching her hair in confusion, Shizuka Hiratsuka couldn't help but open the car door and walked out, rushing to Akatang Mine's side in two steps.
"No, Uncle Feng, what are you doing?"
"We are here to welcome the guests under the orders of the team leader, Miss." He smiled and winked at Hiratsuka Shizuka, then Akadanmine glanced at the people in the car behind Hiratsuka Shizuka, and the wooden pipe stayed on Rem and the others for a moment.
"Come in quickly, the team leader and his wife are waiting."
"That's right, Xiaojing, please go in."
"Uncle Qi, I didn't expect you to join in the fun." He turned his head speechlessly and looked at Shirai Qi on the other side. The image of this adult man who had always been a somewhat cold and reliable person in Hiratsuka Shizuka's heart since childhood was a little shaken at this moment.
"Forget it, I'd better go in and ask my dad directly." Knowing that it was no use asking them anymore, Shizuka Hiratsuka returned to the car, started up very quickly, and drove into the yard.
"Hey, Qi, did you see the people in the car behind?" After seeing that Shizuka Hiratsuka had parked the car in front of the mansion and then led everyone into the house, Akatang Mine's straight body relaxed.
He waved his hand to let the members of the combat team disperse first, and then left two people to drive the car to the parking lot. Akadanfeng took out a cigarette from his arms, lit one himself, and then threw the whole pack to Shirai Qi.
"I saw it. It's very unusual. They are all people who have really seen blood. They are all good fighters." Nodding slowly, Shirai Qi also lit a cigarette.
"It seems that Xiaojing's friend is really extraordinary."
"Hey, one of Xiaojing's friends is in trouble. The team leader just had a brainwave and insisted on asking us to come over so late at night to show off. I guess when we get home, Xiaojing will glare at her and then lose her temper." Chitangfeng laughed, stretched himself, and looked at Baijingqi with a smile.
"Let's go. We haven't had a drink together in a few days. It's my treat."
"Let's go then."
. . .
"Mom, what's wrong with my dad? Why is he suddenly acting abnormal?"
After entering the house and introducing each other, Shizuka Hiratsuka found an excuse to change clothes because she felt uncomfortable and pulled Sachiko Hiratsuka out of the living room and back to her room.
"Xiao Jing, you should know what kind of person your father is. I'm not surprised." Looking at Shizuka Hiratsuka who was standing in front of the wardrobe, taking off her clothes and preparing to change into anything, Sachiko Hiratsuka shook her head helplessly, got up from the bed and walked over.
"Yeah, if you think about it carefully, I'm not surprised. It's just hard on Uncle Qi and Uncle Feng. They have to stand outside so late at night." Shaking her head with amusement, Shizuka Hiratsuka's outstretched hand was slapped away by Sachiko Hiratsuka.
"what happened?"
"I'm telling you, even though you don't usually pay attention, you can't be so casual." After closing the cabinet in front of her, Sachiko Hiratsuka opened a cabinet next to it, and then with a simple adjustment, she took out a matching dress for Shizuka Hiratsuka.
"Oh, no need. I'm just eating at home. I don't need to wear a skirt." Shizuka Hiratsuka blinked and looked at her mother innocently, looking at the clothes handed to her by Sachiko Hiratsuka with some confusion.
After being a woman for so many years, Shizuka Hiratsuka no longer has any aversion to clothes like skirts. However, for the active Shizuka Hiratsuka, skirts are often inconvenient, so she prefers to wear tight pants more often.
"Put it on obediently. Your two friends are wearing skirts, but you, the host, are wearing something casual. This is not good." Without trying to argue with Shizuka Hiratsuka, Sachiko Hiratsuka pressed the clothes into Shizuka Hiratsuka's hands, then bent down to pick up the clothes that Shizuka Hiratsuka had left on the ground, folded them, and put them on the table.
"Okay, you decide~" Shrugging slightly, Shizuka Hiratsuka obediently began to change into the clothes selected by Sachiko Hiratsuka.
"By the way, Xiaojing."
"Hmm?" Looking at Shizuka Hiratsuka who was changing clothes skillfully, Sachiko Hiratsuka was silent for a moment, then asked.
"What do you think of what I told you before?"
"What we talked about before?" Shizuka Hiratsuka, who was putting on her skirt, froze for a moment. She turned sideways to face Sachiko Hiratsuka, and her hair hung down naturally, covering her face.
"I can see what that little girl named Fengzi is thinking, and I believe you can see it too."
"..." She opened her mouth. Although her hair concealed her expression, Shizuka Hiratsuka knew that she couldn't hide too many things in front of Sachiko Hiratsuka.
This is my own mother. It can be said that no one in this world knows me better than Sachiko Hiratsuka.
"I understand. It seems that Xiaojing has grown up." Although there was no response from Shizuka Hiratsuka, Sachiko Hiratsuka seemed to have let go of a worry and breathed a sigh of relief.
"Hurry up and change your clothes and come down. Don't keep the guests waiting for too long."
"Yeah." Shizuka Hiratsuka responded softly, looked up at Sachiko Hiratsuka who walked towards the door and slowly opened it.
"Oh, by the way, Xiaojing." She paused slightly, and with a sly smile on her lips, Sachiko Hiratsuka met the gaze of Shizuka Hiratsuka who looked up.
"Besides Fengzi's words, what do you think of the girl named Koko?"
"...Mom, please stop teasing me, okay?" After being stunned, she felt helpless. Shizuka Hiratsuka looked at her mother who had suddenly become out of control with disgust.
"Really? That's a shame. So what do you think of Yang No?"
"Hey! (#`O′) Mom!"
Chapter 283: Fujiko Ershichi said he could hold on
"Really? What on earth does Mom mean?"
After being pushed out of the room in a bad mood by herself, Sachiko Hiratsuka did not get angry. She just smiled and helped Shizuka Hiratsuka close the bedroom door, leaving Shizuka Hiratsuka alone in the bedroom to change clothes.
Mumbling restlessly, Shizuka Hiratsuka felt that she really couldn't understand her mother's thoughts.
Although Sachiko Hiratsuka had called her and told her about this, Shizuka Hiratsuka still didn't take it too seriously.
After all, in Shizuka Hiratsuka's opinion, most mothers should hope that their daughters can have a normal marriage and a happy family, and finally give birth to a loving child.
At least... there weren't any girls around Shizuka Hiratsuka, not to mention the older and more conservative Sachiko Hiratsuka.
However, judging from her current performance, Shizuka Hiratsuka was somewhat surprised to find that Sachiko Hiratsuka's condition was very similar to what Yukiko said, as if she really wanted to match her up with the people around her, even if they were girls.
"I don't understand." Shizuka Hiratsuka sighed in distress, feeling that her troubles were coming one after another.
