Science: The Little Shota of the Maori Family

Watanabe Toru walked over and said with a smile, "That's great, Xiaolan."

"Yeah." Xiaolan nodded and put the bracelet back on her wrist: "Let's go back, Xiaoche."

"it is good."

"But having said that, the moonlight on the sea is so beautiful." Xiaolan tucked her hair that was messed up by the sea breeze behind her ears, looked up at the starry sky, and was involuntarily attracted to walk to the railing of the boat, saying in amazement.

"Yes, the moon on the sea seems to look bigger." Watanabe Toru agreed.

"Okay, let's go, Che. Be careful not to catch a cold."

"Okay." Watanabe Toru nodded and saw a lifebuoy thrown casually on the deck not far away. He went over to pick it up and prepared to hang it on the wall of the ship.

! !

Suddenly, a feeling of being stared at surged over Watanabe Toru's body. He shuddered and looked in the direction of that feeling.

In the dark corner, Kujirai Sadao silently stretched out his gun and aimed it in his direction.

not good.

Toru Watanabe glanced in the direction of Xiaolan and found that she seemed to have discovered something and was sticking her head out.

Damn, has it been so long since Xiaolan discovered that Kanie was tied outside the boat?

Without hesitation, before the bullet flew out, Watanabe Toru quickly rushed towards Xiaolan and shouted, "Sister Xiaolan, be careful."

Bullets flew out.

Because Watanabe Toru's force was too strong, Xiaolan was caught off guard and both of them flipped over the railing and fell into the sea.

As the cruise ship moved forward, the propeller at the bottom of the ship stirred the sea water, forming a vortex with extremely strong suction.

Three minutes later...

Xiaolan gasped, looking at the boat moving away, then turned to look at Watanabe Toru beside her and asked anxiously, "Xiao Toru, are you okay?"

"I'm fine, Sister Xiaolan."

Toru Watanabe swam on the sea, holding on to the lifebuoy with both hands that had not been hung on the side of the boat in time.

"It was my sister who harmed you."

At this point, Xiaolan also understood what had happened, with a bitter and self-blaming look on her face: "If 860 hadn't insisted on going to the deck to look for the necklace, if I hadn't walked to the railing, this wouldn't have happened. Xiao Che, I'm sorry..."

The vast ocean, the cruise ship has already sailed away. The two are like abandoned children abandoned by the world, with no hope of survival.

Watanabe Toru comforted her, "How can I watch Sister Xiaolan get hurt? It's okay, Sister Xiaolan. Uncle will come to rescue us when he finds out we are missing."

Xiaolan pursed her lips, looked at Watanabe Toru's determined eyes, and was reluctant to tell him the cruel truth. She forced a smile and said, "Yeah, Dad will come to save us."

"By the way, Sister Xiaolan." Watanabe Toru took out a waterproof flashlight from his pocket: "I brought a flashlight, maybe it will come in handy."

He remembered that there should be a fishing boat passing by nearby. If they used a flashlight to signal for help, there was a high probability that the two of them could be saved.

But he didn't expect that he and Xiaolan would encounter this disaster instead of Hattori Heiji. If Hattori Heiji solved the case, his trip would be in vain.

Damn Kujirai Sadao...

Seeing Toru Watanabe take out a waterproof flashlight, Xiaolan's eyes lit up with hope. Although the possibility of being rescued was slim, at least there was hope.

267. Sister Xiaolan, can I kiss you?

The sea water was very cold at night. Watanabe Toru and Xiaolan were wearing coats. After falling into the water, their clothes became very heavy in an instant, so they had to take off their coats in the water.

Xiaolan took the finger-sized flashlight and let the beam of light shine on the sea, sending out a distress signal from time to time. Unfortunately, no ship discovered them.

Looking at the dark sea, she gradually began to despair. Given their current situation, it was only a matter of time before they were swallowed by the sea.

"Xiao Che." She spoke softly.

Watanabe Toru hummed: "What's wrong, Xiaolan?"

Xiaolan pursed her lips: "Do you hate my sister? Because of my sister, we have ended up like this, and even... maybe..."

In the end, he still didn't say the word "die".

Watanabe Toru tilted his head: "I don't hate her. Sister Xiaolan is so good to me, how could I hate her?"

"But...what if my sister causes you to lose your life?" Xiaolan bit her lip, not daring to look into Watanabe Toru's eyes.

Watanabe Toru was silent for a moment: "Maybe there will be some regrets."

"Pity?"

"Yes, because I want to marry Sister Xiaolan when I grow up." Watanabe Toru said seriously.

"Huh? Xiaolan was stunned for a moment."

Although she knew that Xiao Che liked her, she was still a little surprised to hear him say in person that he wanted to marry her.

Watanabe Toru continued: "Although I know that Xiaolan has someone she likes in her heart, when I grow up, I will definitely do better and make Xiaolan like me even more."

When Xiaolan heard Toru Watanabe mention Shinichi, she was distracted for a moment.

This was the first time in his despair that he hadn't thought of that guy. He no longer expected him to suddenly appear and pull him out of trouble. It seemed that he wasn't that dependent on him anymore.

"Sister Xiaolan? Sister Xiaolan..."

Watanabe Toru's cry interrupted Xiaolan's thoughts. She looked at Watanabe Toru and asked, "What's wrong?"

"Sister Xiaolan, what are you thinking about?" asked Toru Watanabe.

"Nothing." Xiaolan took a deep breath and smiled, "Of course my sister likes Xiaoche more."

"really?"

"real."

"Then..." Watanabe Toru hesitated for a moment and asked tentatively: "Sister Xiaolan, can I kiss you? Maybe... there is no chance for me to marry Sister Xiaolan."

As he said this, he let out a long sigh.

Xiaolan felt more and more uncomfortable, and she couldn't help but move her face closer to Watanabe Toru, then gently kissed Watanabe Toru on the lips.

Her lips were dry and not as soft as when she touched Sonoko and others, but for Toru Watanabe, it was already a great surprise.

Sure enough, only in such times of crisis can one's wishes be easily realized.

Watanabe Toru said with a smile: "My mother said that if I kiss a girl, I must marry her when I grow up."

Xiaolan pursed her lips and smiled: "Then sister will wait for Xiaoche to grow up."

"it is good."

Half an hour later.

Still no ship detected the distress signal sent by Toru Watanabe and Xiaolan.

The icy seawater soaked their bodies, freezing their lips purple. The lifebuoys drifted with the waves...

Under the current circumstances, even if the two people were not frozen to death, they would lose the feeling in their hands and feet due to the cold and eventually drown in the sea.

"Sister Xiaolan, look there..."

Just when Xiaolan was feeling helpless and desperate, Toru Watanabe suddenly pointed behind her.

She forced herself to cheer up and turned back. In the distance, a fishing boat with lights on was slowly approaching them.

...

Fishing boat cabin.

Toru Watanabe and Xiaolan took off all their clothes, wrapped themselves in thick blankets, and drank hot water, which finally relieved the coldness in their hands and feet.

"I didn't expect that there would be fishing boats coming so far to fish at this time of night." Xiaolan looked relieved: "Otherwise, we would really be doomed this time."

"Yes, we are really lucky." Watanabe Toru nodded.

"We have to thank them properly."

"Uh-huh."

After they regained some spirit, the two men left the cabin and expressed their gratitude to the fisherman who rescued them.

The fisherman smiled naively and said, "I never thought someone would fall into the sea. I was really shocked."

"If it weren't for you, my brother and I would have died here." Thinking of that desperate scene, Xiaolan still felt a lingering fear: "By the way, uncle, do you have a phone here? I want to contact my dad."

"No problem." The fisherman nodded and took out his cell phone and handed it to Xiaolan.

Half an hour later.

The fishing boat caught up with the cruise ship. After Watanabe Toru and Ran boarded the deck, Maori Kogoro's tense expression finally relaxed. He stepped forward and asked anxiously, "Ran, Toru, are you all right?"

"We're fine, Dad." Xiaolan comforted her father: "Luckily, we met this uncle and were saved. By the way, Dad, the reason why Xiaoche and I fell into the sea was because..."

"The case has been thoroughly investigated," said Maori Kogoro. "The murderer is Kujirai."

Sure enough, the case was solved.

Watanabe Toru felt a little regretful, but he still did not forget to flatter Maori Kogoro: "As expected of you, uncle."

Kogoro Mori seemed to be hesitant to speak.

In fact, he had nothing to do with solving the case. It was Hattori Heiji who found the evidence and pointed out that Kujirai Sadao was the murderer behind the scenes.

However, Hattori Heiji wasn't around at the moment, so Maori Kogoro tacitly agreed with Watanabe Toru's words, nodding slightly and saying, "Even the most cunning murderer will be exposed in my eyes. It's only a matter of time before I reveal their true colors. (King Qian) Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. I'll explain it to you in detail when we get back. Go back to your room and change your clothes."

He saw Hattori Heiji and others walking towards him. If he continued talking, he would be exposed.

"Okay, by the way, uncle, can you lend me your cell phone?" Watanabe Toru said.

"Here you go." Although he didn't know what Watanabe Toru wanted the phone for, Maori Kogoro didn't ask any questions and took out his own phone and handed it to Watanabe Toru.

"Thank you uncle."

Toru Watanabe and Xiaolan returned to their rooms in the cabin. While Xiaolan was changing clothes, he sent a text message to Pu Siqinglan.

Tomorrow morning, a cruise ship will dock at Tokyo Harbor. The assassination target is Kujirai Sadao.

Watanabe Toru described Kujirai Sadao's general appearance to Pu Siqinglan, and after Pu Siqinglan sent a "Received" reply, he deleted all the messages between them.

268. Ran's attitude towards Kudo Shinichi changes

As the sea and sky meet, a ray of morning light emerges from the sea, and the deep blue darkness of the night is slowly replaced by orange and red, which is magnificent and gorgeous.

After the cruise ship returned to the port of Tokyo, the police took Sadao Kujirai away.

Watanabe Toru didn't know when Pu Siqinglan would take action, but he was still very confident in her strength.

Sure enough, in the afternoon, a news report came on TV that Sadao Kujirai, one of the criminals who committed a 400 million yen robbery and murder case 20 years ago, was assassinated with a sniper rifle while being escorted by the police.

……

Monday, November 20th.

After soaking in the icy sea for an hour, Toru Watanabe and Xiaolan developed fevers of varying degrees after returning, and were forced to take leave to rest at home on school days.

"Tsk tsk, the brother and sister both had a fever at the same time, what did you do?"

After school, I came to visit my best friend's garden, only to find that my lover was also sick. I was surprised and asked curiously.

Xiaolan briefly told Sonoko about the two people falling into the sea.

Yuanzi opened his mouth and put away the mockery on his face. The fear in his eyes gradually faded away after Xiaolan told the whole story of 877.

I thought it was just an ordinary illness, but who would have thought it would be such a dangerous process. I almost died from my best friend and lover.

"That murderer is so despicable." She said angrily, "If he falls into my hands, I will make him pay!"

Xiaolan smiled and said, "Luckily, we met an old man who came to fish at night. Otherwise, Xiaoche and I might not be able to come back..."

"But given your current condition, you probably won't be able to participate in this week's school festival, right?" Sonoko said worriedly.

"Hmm... I think it should be fine in a couple of days. It won't affect the school festival."

"Huh? Sister Xiaolan, you guys have a school festival?" Toru Watanabe interrupted.

Xiaolan hummed softly: "This weekend."

"We're going to sell fried noodles," Sonoko said, "Xiao Che, do you want to come with us?"

The high school festival is open to the public, and participants are not limited to teachers and students of the school, but people outside the school can also participate.
