"So that's it," Mao Lilan breathed a sigh of relief and smiled happily, "Mom really thinks that asking dad to come over would be too much trouble for him."
"No..." Fei Yingli finally finished typing, stopped and looked at the stunned Mao Lilan, and said firmly, "It's because I hate him. Is this reason enough?"
Mao Lilan came back to her senses and said helplessly, "What! This kind of statement..."
"Oh, when you defend others, you are always tight, but when it comes to your own affairs, you are full of loopholes." A woman with short hair jokingly walked to the door, raised her hand, knocked on the door, and said with a smile, "I think you are almost perfect."
Forgive me sir, Fei Yingli?"
Fei Yingli turned around and said with a look of dissatisfaction, "Based on his current appearance, there is no hope. If you want to forgive him, the guy must show sincerity."
The short-haired woman walked in with a smile, "Then why not just get a divorce!"
Fei Yingli sweated, "Ah, this..."
The short-haired woman walked to the desk and looked at Mao Lilan, "But with such a lovely daughter, it's no wonder you are reluctant to let her go."
Fei Yingli walked down the steps, stood up and said, "Okay, let's not talk about that anymore. Let me introduce to you. This is the Detective Koshimizu Nanatsuki I am talking about."
Yuko Arisawa used to appear on TV a lot and she was easy to recognize.
"Hello, Ms. Yuko," Koshimizu Nanatsuki said with a slight bow, "Please give me your advice."
"Please give me your advice," Yuko Arisawa bowed in return with the same politeness, "I will trouble you and my lawyer next."
"This is my husband's disciple. Fei Chi is friends with Nanatsuki, so he came here too." Fei Yingli smiled and looked at Conan, "This is the child of a friend who is temporarily staying with my husband.
Just call him Conan."
Today's meeting is to introduce a celebrity to Koshizu Nanatsuki, so Fei Yingli's introduction to Chi Feichi and Conan was also mentioned.
"Hello." Chi Feichi greeted.
Conan also smiled and raised his head and said, "Hello, Aunt Yuko!"
"Hello." Yuko Arisawa smiled.
Fei Yingli stood up, took the bag placed on the chair, and said to Arisawa Yuko, "Okay, let's go to your house first."
"That's right. My husband should have returned home from get off work." Yuko Arisawa took out her mobile phone from her handbag, "I'll call him and ask him."
As soon as Fei Yingli saw it, she waited for Yuko Arisawa to call first.
The phone seemed to have not been connected for a long time. Yuko Arisawa frowned and murmured, "Strange... why don't you answer the phone..."
"Could he have gone to take a shower?" Mao Lilan guessed in a low voice.
"Ah..." Arizawa Yuko heard the call was connected and said hurriedly, "Husband, where are you now?...What? Wake up?..."
Arisawa Yuko pressed the phone hands-free, and a male voice and the sound of chanting sutras came out from the other side of the phone at the same time.
"Yes, a friend passed away suddenly. I'm here to offer incense for him... Did you hear the chanting, right? So, I will go back later tonight. You don't have to wait for me. You can go to sleep first."
Yuko Arisawa's face turned ugly for a moment, and she soon became helpless, "Why do you ask me to go to bed first? Isn't it tonight that we invite lawyer Eri and the detective to the house to investigate?"
"Ah..." the male voice over there hesitated, "is it tonight..."
"I'm already at Fei's lawyer's office now. I'll let her listen." After Yuko Arisawa finished speaking, she handed the phone to Fei Yingli.
Fei Yingli was a little surprised, but she still answered the phone, turned off the speakerphone, and talked to Arisawa Yuko's husband over there, "Yes, I'm Fei Yingli... It doesn't matter. If it's really inconvenient, we can change the time."
No problem...is that right? I understand...then let's do it at that time."
Yuko Arisawa waited for Concubine Eri to hang up the phone before asking, "What did he say about my husband?"
Fei Yingli handed the phone back to Yuko Arisawa, "He said he would be home at 9:25 pm and asked us to be there at that time."
"9:25?" Conan asked in confusion, "That's really detailed. Wouldn't most people say half past nine or a little after nine?"
"My husband is a strict timekeeper and is basically never late for no reason," Yuko Arisawa spread her hands and said with a smile, "but he seems to have forgotten his appointment with the concubine's lawyer tonight."
"It doesn't matter," Fei Yingli raised her hand to look at her watch, "there are still two hours until half past nine..."
"Then why don't we go to the restaurant of a nearby hotel to have dinner together?" Yuko Arisawa asked, "Actually, before I came to your place, I was sitting in the cafe of that hotel to kill time. The car is still parked there. Can I
Save money on parking fees!”
…
It is a daily routine to take advantage of the client.
Since Arisawa Yuko said that the hotel was very close to here, Chi Feichi did not drive there anymore and walked there with the others.
The key is that there are so many people that his car can't fit...
After dinner, Mao Lilan, Koshimizu Nanatsuki, Fei Eri and Arisawa Yuko talked about various competitions.
"Won the championship in the Tokyo Karate Competition?" Yuko Arisawa sighed with a smile, "Xiaolan, you are really good!"
"No, actually Brother Chi is much better than me, but he doesn't specialize in karate, so he didn't participate in any competitions," Mao Lilan smiled sheepishly and added, "And you are the same, aren't you?
?Have participated in many competitions and won many championships.”
Conan concentrated on the snacks on the table and reached for the tissues.
Chi Feichi reached out to help get the tissue and handed it to Conan.
Two people who do not participate in karate competitions, judo competitions, or kendo competitions are fishing on the sidelines.
"No, I'm a late bloomer. I didn't win any awards before I went to college, and I was injured. My peak was only two or three years," Yuko Arisawa's smile disappeared, and she said in a regretful tone, "Then I'll retire and get married.
…I originally wanted to win the Olympic gold medal in front of my admired seniors, but in the end I didn’t have the chance to achieve it.”
"The senior you admire?" Mao Lilan was curious.
"That's Mr. Hajime Omoto, who is now the All-Japan coach. He was once an unbeatable gold medalist in the 81kg class!" Yuko Arisawa smiled, "I started practicing judo after watching his competition on TV.
"
"Then it's the same for me," Mao Lilan said with a smile, "I practice karate because I admire Mr. Maeda, the all-Japan karate champion."
"Huh?" Yuko Arizawa said with a surprised smile, "I thought it was Mr. Feichi."
"It was only after I met Brother Fei Chi," Mao Lilan said with a smile, "Now he is the target I am chasing..."
"So that's it," Yuko Arisawa looked down at the table, her expression became lonely, and she murmured in a low voice, "Worship can only be worship. It's better to watch beautiful flowers from a distance. If you get too close, it will look like that
Like Icarus who fell after his wings were scorched by the sun, he brought disaster to himself..."
Koshimi Nanatsuki put down his teacup and raised his eyes to look at Arisawa Yuko.
"Ah, I'm sorry," Yuko Arizawa looked up and smiled, "I said so many strange things."
Mao Lilan came back to her senses, smiled and shook her head, "It's nothing."
"However, I think... Icarus is just too greedy," Koshimizu Nanatsuki explained when he saw the others looking at her, "Isn't his original purpose to fly out of the cage with his wings and gain freedom? In the middle of the journey
He saw the sun, was attracted by the warmth of the sun, and forgot his original intention, which led to the tragedy that he did not fly to the sun and died instead."
Yuuko Arisawa stared blankly at Nanatsuki Koshikoshi.
Too greedy...?
"Perhaps it's not greed, but recklessness and stupidity," Chi Feichi, an ambitious scholar, said that he does not recognize the concept of greed as the original sin. Greed is sometimes the driving force that supports people's progress, but people should not be controlled by greed, but should be controlled by greed.
To control greed, "If he understands his situation clearly enough and can learn to delay gratification, he can judge his fate when flying upward, stop temporarily, and later build a pair of steel wings, or use the power of gods
, tragedy may not happen.”
In the story of Icarus, compared to the tragic colors interpreted by people in different situations, he felt more...
This young man doesn't look very smart.
I had no idea how long the wings made of wax could be baked. I only saw the sun in my eyes and completely ignored my situation. My wings were almost melting and I didn't pay attention. As long as I regained my sense, I wouldn't fall to death.
Seeing that everyone else was thinking in a daze, Conan laughed dryly in his heart.
Hey, hey, what's going on with this atmosphere of suddenly entering into a philosophical discussion of human nature?
But looking at it this way, his little friend is quite arrogant, and even the people in the story started to look down upon him.
He always felt that Chi Feichi had already accused Icarus of being a fool in his heart.
Koshimizu Nanatsuki nodded thoughtfully, "Are you ready to get close to the sun again? That's right."
Chi Feichi began to worry that Yuesui Nanatsuki was overthinking, and said, "What you said is correct, Icarus is a man whose mind was confused by greed."
"I said..." Conan looked at his watch and interrupted the exchange of compliments between the two people. "It's almost time. Should we go there?"
"It's already 9 o'clock," Fei Yingli also looked at her watch and turned to ask Arisawa Yuko, "You said it only takes a few minutes to drive from here to your home, right?"
"That's right," Yuko Arisawa nodded with a smile, stood up and said, "Then, I'll go to the bathroom first..."
Chi Feichi also stood up and said, "Then I'll drive back to the office."
Yuko Arisawa walked out, turned around and smiled at Chi Feichi, "Then I'll wait for you outside the hotel parking lot after I drive."
Chi Feichi nodded, turned around, took the elevator downstairs, drove outside Fei Yingli Law Firm, and returned to the hotel to park.
Logically speaking, Arisawa Yuko and others who came from the hotel to the parking lot should have driven out long ago, but Chi Feichi got there first, parked on the side of the road and waited for a while before a white car drove out of the parking lot.
After honking the horn, he slowed down and drove next to the red Lexus SC.
Yuko Arisawa poked her head out of the car and smiled apologetically towards Chi Feichi through Fei Yingli in the passenger seat, "I'm sorry, there are too many cars in the parking lot, and I was so careless that I forgot about it for a while.
The car was parked somewhere, so it was delayed a little longer and kept you waiting."
"It's okay." Chi Feichi replied calmly.
"I'm going to take Brother Chi's car!"
Conan said in a grandma's voice, opened Yuko Arisawa's car door, jumped out of the car, and closed the door with a bang.
"Hey? Conan...! Even if you have to take Brother Fei Chi's car, you have to pay attention to safety," Mao Lilan couldn't stop him in time. Seeing that Conan had already run to Chi Fei Chi's car and got in, she complained helplessly and said to someone
Yuko Sawa apologized, "Sorry, Conan is very clingy to Brother Fei Chi sometimes."
"It doesn't matter, it's a bit crowded if you all sit in my car," Yuko Arisawa smiled and said to Chi Feichi, "Then Mr. Chi, just follow me in the car."
