Nagai Hikaru's Ke Xuexing

Chapter 111 Goodbye Okiya Subaru

Three days later, Nagai Mitsuru came to take over his house in Beika Town. When he was almost at the door, a group of children were blocking the introduction of the real estate company: "Ah, this house will be given to you in two days, okay? Just two days."

Ayumi clasped her hands together and pleaded.

"But the new owner is coming to see the house."

Yuanta and Mitsuhiko also said in the back: "The painter before, it was very difficult to finish the garden, he wanted to show the grandmother what the garden would look like when it blooms. At the latest, it will bloom tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, so let the grandmother take a look."

Nagai Hikaru walked to the door and greeted the kids: "Oh, Junior Detective Team, what are you doing?"

"Sister Xiaoguang." Ayumi turned her face with tears in her eyes. "The garden that the painter uncle worked so hard to transform is going to be gone before it even blooms. Wow wow wow!" She burst into tears as she spoke.

Nagai Mitsuru looked at the real estate agent with a confused look on his face.

The real estate agent wiped his sweat and explained, "Ah, Ms. Nagai, they have been blocking us from entering the house to accept the property. I am very sorry."

"But I said to keep the garden." Nagai Mitsuru asked curiously.

"Yeah... I never said I wanted to demolish the house. I just said I wanted to take over the house. These kids..."

Ayumi's crying stopped abruptly.

Guangyan opened his mouth wide: "Ah... this... this house was bought by Sister Xiaoguang?"

Nagai Hikaru nodded: "I think this garden is well maintained. Originally, their real estate company wanted to demolish it and rebuild it before selling it, but I bought it directly and didn't say they wanted to demolish it."

Yuanta sighed, and Ayumi wiped away her tears with her sleeve, then smiled: "That's great, that grandma can see the painting that the painter uncle wants to show her."

Conan inside popped his head out from behind the door, looking a little surprised: "Xiao Guang?"

"Ah." Nagai Hikaru, who didn't quite understand the situation, raised his hand and greeted, "Have you finished your class?"

By the way, he signaled to Shuichi Hamura to continue negotiating the specific details of the house delivery with the real estate agent.

"Yes, school is over." Several children gathered around and explained the whole story.

This house was previously rented to a painter uncle. The painter suddenly passed away due to illness last night. It is said that this house contains his last paintings.

It turned out that the painter's aunt had lost her memory, but she took good care of the painter when she was young. So the painter arranged the gifts exactly the same as the garden of her aunt's home when she was young in his memory, hoping that the aunt would take another look at it.

This is the painting he gave to his aunt.

Nagai Hikaru clapped his hands to show that he understood: "It's okay, I bought this house to store my things, and it's also convenient for me to come here occasionally to play and change clothes. So the garden will not be demolished, and the old lady can come and see it whenever she wants."

"Long live Sister Xiaoguang!" Several children jumped for joy.

Conan stood by with his hands in his pockets: "That's great. Originally, even if the old lady saw that the garden was in bloom, it might be torn down later. What a pity."

"Yes, don't worry, with Shuichi taking care of it, the flowers will only bloom better and better." Nagai Mitsuru was very confident.

Huihara Ai was looking forward to it: "Will Sister Xiaoguang come here to live often? 1-chome is very close to the doctor's house."

"I don't come here very often. I only stay here sometimes when it's too late to go back home."

"Why don't you go back to Kudo's house? You are obviously more familiar with that place." Conan was a little depressed, and inexplicably felt like they were separated.

"Tell me, who gave my room to a stranger?" Nagai Hikaru snorted, not wanting to pay attention to Conan. He picked up Haibara Ai and said to her, "What are you going to have for dinner tonight? Do you have any plans?"

Huiyuan Ai sat on his arm, her face slightly red: "No arrangements yet."

"Then I'll take you guys to eat something delicious?"

"Can we bring Dr. Agasa with us?" Huihara Ai said in a small voice, "But don't eat anything too oily, he's still trying to lose weight."

Yuan Tai said regretfully: "Ah, my mother asked me to go home for dinner today. She made stew at home."

Mitsuhiko and Ayumi nodded together: "Because we have agreed to go bamboo shoot digging with Professor Agasa tomorrow, so I have to go home early today to do my homework. The meal is ready at home. Sister Xiaoguang, can you treat us to a meal next time?"

"Of course." Nagai Hikaru touched the heads of the three children one by one, "Did you come here to guard the garden right after school?"

Ayumi shook her head: "No, we spent a long time looking for the painter uncle's paintings."

After the three children returned home by themselves, Nagai Mitsuru asked Haibara Ai to call Professor Agasa and ask them to come out for dinner together.

Then Dr. Agasa said in confusion, "Ah, that, Mr. Okiya said he cooked too much curry, and he has sent a big pot over. Xiaoguang, do you want to eat with us? It would be a shame if we don't eat the curry."

"Mr. Okiya? The one who moved into the Kudo family?" Haibara Ai looked unhappy holding the phone.

"That curry smells delicious..." Dr. Agasa felt like he couldn't save his face.

Haibara Ai looked at Nagai Hikaru.

Nagai Hikaru nodded: "Then I'll go to Dr. Agasa's house and have some curry."

Dr. Agasa on the phone probably heard Nagai Hikaru's answer: "Ah, I haven't seen Hikaru for a long time either. Mr. Okiya made a big pot, enough for us. Ah, he hasn't left yet. He asked if he could eat here together? It would be a bit lonely for him to go back and eat alone."

Nagai Hikaru felt a little strange inside and nodded: "Sure, I should thank him for a good sleep."

After seeing Haibara Ai hung up the phone, Nagai Mitsuru put her down and notified Hamura Shuichi, who had already entered the house to look at the house, and asked him to pick him up from Professor Agasa around 8 o'clock after dinner.

Conan waited for Nagai Hikaru to finish his call before grabbing his skirt and saying, "Anyway, I'll go to Dr. Agasa's house with you guys to eat curry."

Nagai Hikaru lowered his head and glanced at him: "I didn't rule you out at the beginning. By the way, who is this Okiya Subaru? Why did you let him live in the house?"

Conan coughed and said, "I think that people who like Sherlock Holmes are not bad people."

"I like Gin, too."

The expressions between Haibara Ai and Conan at that moment are very interesting.

"Gin... Gin..." Conan turned away stiffly, "He likes Sherlock Holmes?"

"Anyway, he is incredibly familiar with Sherlock Holmes's detective stories. Oh, and he also likes to read detective novels. I know quite a few detective novelists now."

"...I failed to force you to read a few books back then." Conan felt something was wrong. "What is your relationship with Gin? Are you familiar with each other?"

"I'm the boss of the Tokyo Intelligence Group. He's the head of the operations team. Do you think we would be strangers?"

"Are you really just work colleagues?" Conan asked seriously.

"Of course there are other relationships, but I won't tell you." Nagai Hikaru grabbed Conan's head and rubbed it hard, "Don't ask about things you shouldn't ask about!"

"What do you mean by something you shouldn't ask? I'm worried about you!" Conan slapped Nagai Hikaru's hand away angrily, wanting to grab him and ask him directly about his relationship with Gin, but when he saw Haibara Ai looking at them with a worried look on her face, he turned his face away and said, "Forget it, I'll talk to you alone some other day."

When we arrived at Dr. Agasa's house, Dr. Agasa came over happily as soon as he entered the door: "Ah, Xiaoguang, it's been a long time. The last time we saw each other was on the airship."

"Yes." After greeting Dr. Agasa, Nagai Hikaru looked at Subaru Okiya behind him, "Hello, Mr. Okiya."

"Hello, Nagai-san, nice to see you again."

"Yes, by the way, the quilt and pillow you use are good, and they are quite comfortable to sleep on. What brand are they?"

Conan's face changed, and he grabbed Nagai Hikaru's skirt: "What's wrong with you? Why did you sleep on his quilt and pillow?"

Nagai Hikaru's platinum skirt was pulled by Conan many times today. She was very worried that the golden petal lace on the skirt would be torn: "Because that's my bed! I can sleep on it whenever I want!"

Subaru Okiya quickly explained, "On the day of cleaning, Nagai-san said he was a little tired, so he slept on the bed I had made. In fact, I moved to the guest room on the first floor that night. I'm sorry, Nagai-san."

"So what's the brand of the quilt and pillow?" Nagai Mitsuru was a little helpless about the fact that people always ignored his questions.

"Oh, it's not a famous brand, it's just an ordinary brand with English letters in the counter of the Mihua Department Store. Can Nagai leave your contact information? I'll go back and look at the details and send it to you."

"Okay." Nagai Mitsuru took out the lemon phone.

Conan watched them exchange phone numbers naturally, with a subtle expression on his face.

Dr. Agasa laughed and said, "Mr. Okiya is really nice. He helps me check props from time to time. It would be nice for Xiaoguang to make more friends."

"Did Nagai-san used to live in Kudo's house? Where did he move to now?" Okiya Subaru asked casually.

"Uncle Yusaku and his family took care of me for a while, but I moved out later. My current house is in Beika-cho 1-chome, very close to Beika Park and Teitan Elementary School." Nagai Hikaru saved the number and put the phone back into his bag with a smile, "But I just moved here."

"That's very close." Okiya Subaru thought for a moment, "I wonder if it would be offensive to visit in person?"

"Yes." Nagai Hikaru replied with a smile.

The originally harmonious conversation suddenly came to a halt.

Subaru Okiya smiled and said, "Ah, I thought I was the type that Nagai-san would be more fond of."

"I'm sorry, but I'm not the type to open my heart to anyone I've slept with, not to mention that the bed was technically mine." Nagai Hikaru packed his bag and turned to look at Dr. Agasa on the side. "So when are we going to eat? Although I'm not hungry yet, I can already smell the aroma of curry and I'm a little greedy."

Even though Dr. Agasa was slow, he could tell that the atmosphere was tense and he quickly changed the subject: "Okay, I just cooked a big pot of rice in the rice cooker, it should be ready soon."
