Chapter 196 196. Egg porridge

At eight o'clock in the morning, Sakurai Mei came to visit with hot porridge. When she saw the chubby old man who opened the door, she first bowed deeply.

"Hello, doctor, I'm Detective Yono's assistant. It's our first time to disturb you. It's a bit presumptuous of me to bother you. I wanted to ask if Xiao Ai is feeling better from her cold. I cooked some porridge to see her, because I heard that you are too. I have been living alone, and after thinking about it yesterday, I was still concerned about it, so I wanted to see if there was anyone I could help with. I have taken care of my sister since I was a child, and I have some experience in this area. "

No matter how you modify the words, it is really clear that you are not confident about Dr. Ali's ability to take care of children.

If it were a host with a worse temper, it would not be considered rude to just close the door and see the guests off at this time.

However, the old man in front of him had a good temper and was able to play happily with the energetic primary school students every day. Therefore, the first emotion he felt was embarrassment and confusion.

Although I don't know what Shinichi and the others are checking, Xiao Ai is not really sick.

"Thank you, you don't have to worry about that. I really don't have much experience in taking care of children. You are really enthusiastic about taking the initiative to help, but the child hasn't gotten up yet."

After hearing this, Sakurai Ming smiled and said that she could understand, "You are sick, so you should sleep more. Just bring the porridge, and it's time for me to go to work. I'll come over to see Xiao Ai at noon."

"Okay, let me thank you for your concern on behalf of Xiao Ai. You are busy with work, so don't come at noon."

After sending the porridge out with empty hands, Sakurai Mei waved her hands lively in response, "It's okay. The boss actually hired me to stay in the office. There is no important work for me, and there is a kitchen in the office. I You can prepare lunch and deliver it!”

Dr. A Li did not expect that rejection would not be effective at all, but it was really difficult for a good old man who had never rejected anyone in his life to come up with an effective way to refuse, "No... no need, that would be too troublesome, it's not like we don't know how to cook. ”

"It's okay, it's okay. I'm just free when I'm free. Don't worry. Cooking for three people is actually not much more troublesome than cooking for one. It's hard to control the portion when eating for one person."

After saying that, the girl full of youthful vitality turned and left, not giving Dr. A Li a chance to continue to push and refuse.

Seeing that there was no hope of rejection, Dr. Ali quickly went into the room and called Haibara Ai for help.

It's true that Huihara Ai hasn't gotten up yet. She slept too late yesterday.

The new clues brought by Conan last night kept her awake. She always thought that she would be able to recognize her sister whenever she saw her. However, those videos, the familiar yet unfamiliar feeling made her extremely panicked, and she couldn't help but dial the number at night. Calling my sister on the phone, listening to the phone messages over and over again, recalling every moment of the past.

When she came out of the shower, the doctor who had just said in a panic that he had something to discuss was nowhere to be found. Only the hot porridge on the dining table was smelling of aroma.

Haiyuan Ai walked a little faster, opened the lid, and stared blankly at the chopped green onion and egg porridge inside.

That soup base was carefully cooked with kombu and dried small fish. It is a distant image that has not faded deep in the memory.

"Doctor, who was here just now?"

Before the doctor could respond, Haihara Ai had already ran out and looked for where the doctor might be. "Doctor! Where are you?"

She couldn't wait there, she desperately needed the answer.

With the development of media technology, people seem to have an illusion that images and sounds can express what the world looks like.

But in fact, other senses that are more difficult to describe are also working together, and multiple complex senses constitute the world we perceive.

Those hard-to-reproduce senses of smell and taste can easily tell you the truth about the world that you can’t tell is true or false.

Dr. Ali, who was blocked at the door of the toilet, was still in some condition. He comforted the little girl cheerfully, "Xiao Ai, don't be nervous. At worst, Miss Sakurai will say you are resting when she comes back in the afternoon."

Haibara Ai tightly grasped Dr. Ali's clothes, "It's Sakurai Mei, right?"

"Well, that's what she said, but I haven't seen Detective Yono's new assistant. Have you ever hung out together? She cares about you very much. She knew you were sick, so she came to visit you. On the table She brought the porridge!" The doctor continued, "But she said she would also bring food at noon, and said she could cook in the office. I felt really embarrassed, but she didn't become famous. Refuse. So what if she comes here at noon and wants to check on you? Are you checking for something else? Will this affect your actions again?

"It's okay, doctor, she is my sister. Edogawa and I have been looking for her these past two days."

"Oh, no wonder, it's normal for a sister to care about you." The doctor said before he realized something was wrong. Looking at the still bright eyes of the little girl who didn't often show emotions, he stammered, "Yes. ...is your biological sister."

"Yes!" Haihara Ai had already taken the spoon and jumped on the chair in front of the porridge. "Let me taste it again to see if it's familiar, but I think it's right."

At that time, she had not gone to study in the United States, and her sister was only about ten years old. Seeing that she had a cold and could not eat, she cooked a pot of green onion and egg porridge. The taste will never be forgotten.

After enduring the heat and taking a sip of the fragrant egg porridge, Haihara Ai continued to explain to the doctor, "Because the doctor is busy with that cooperation project, we haven't told you clearly what happened in the past few days. I seemed to have seen my sister before. , coupled with the information Conan got from the police, we guess that my sister is with me now, so we want to try to find her. "

"Edogawa came here last night because he suspected Sakurai Mei was my sister, but we couldn't confirm it after watching the video. Unexpectedly, she came here today."

Dr. A Li was sincerely happy for Xiao Ai and her sister to be reunited, but he inevitably had other questions, "Does Miss Sakurai know that you are her sister? She told me that she was very happy when she was delivering the porridge. I have experience taking care of my sister!”

Hui Yuan Ai shook his head, "I don't know either. It just so happens that although she has met the children of the detective team several times, I have never met her once. Even if the children mentioned me, she would I shouldn’t be suspicious to this extent. After all, my sister shouldn’t know the content of my research.”

Thinking of this, Hui Yuan Ai smiled again, "But maybe I underestimated my sister too much. Although I didn't say anything, from my parents to me, I have been conducting the same research, so she might have known about it for a long time. "

The porridge was still hot and difficult to eat, but Hui Yuan Ai looked relaxed and stretched.

My sister is still alive, that is the best news in the world.

If you want to comment, please, anything is fine. After the Miyano sisters finished writing, they felt that their passion for updating was fading, and they had a headache designing the plot. Although most of the plots in this book are quite improvised because the outline is very rough, there are too many piscos, ski buses, and full moons, and it feels boring no matter how it develops.
