[Conan] Scenery and Light and Wine

Chapter 7 Give an invitation

Although the beginning of the holiday was unsatisfactory in one way or another.Fortunately, Ke Ya is rich and powerful, so she booked the room for a month in one go.They have enough time to make up for the unpleasantness at the beginning.

After the rash on Ke Ya's body subsided, the two of them enjoyed a hot spring bath together.

While taking a bath, he saw some old knife wounds and gunshot wounds on Ke Ya's body, and he was a little surprised.

Although his rationality told him not to inquire about such private things, there was an inexplicable certainty in his subconscious mind, and Keya wouldn't mind.

Sure enough, after he asked, Keya looked down at the scar on her body, poured a handful of water on it, and replied indifferently: "It happened ten years ago. At that time, I was working for the local boss in Moscow. Not treated well."

Scotland can't help but feel... care about the experience behind the codename Kaya...

"How old are you?" Scotland asked absently, flicking a handful of water.

"Five months away from turning 29."

"Four years older than me." Scotland turned over in the water and lay down on the stone steps of the hot spring, "Is the name you said that day your real name?"

"Yeah, doesn't that sound like it?"

Due to the influence of the steam in the hot spring, Keya took off her glasses and left them in the room.

He raised his hand and stroked his wet forehead hair, revealing the handsome face with obvious traces of mixed blood to Scotland's eyes.

"Krasnodar... seems like a place name?"

"Hmm..." Ke Ya responded, a little surprised, "One of the nine border regions of the Russian Federation, have you checked it?"

Scotland nodded generously: "I'm a little curious, so I searched it online."

Ke Ya did not comment on Scotland's behavior, but explained to him the origin of the name: "I am an orphan and grew up in an orphanage. This surname is the naming habit of the dean Larsa's mother. Four autonomous districts and three border districts."

Ke Ya's tone of saying that she is an orphan is no different from his tone of saying that the water is a bit hot, making this somewhat heavy topic smoothly enter the atmosphere of small talk.

Scotland didn't want to look like he cared much about this matter, so he gave a relaxed evaluation following Ke Ya's attitude.

"It's too random."

"Yeah, we discussed what to do if we have too many children in the future." Ke Ya half-closed her eyes and recalled: "Larsa's mother said, "Then start again from the beginning." "

"Hahaha puff..."

Scotland smiled and lowered his head without paying attention, spitting a few bubbles in the water indiscriminately.

Keya helplessly stretched out her hand to pinch his chin to lift him up, and then patted his back to let him breathe.

Scotland turned over and coughed twice, and the whole person fell back, trying to pretend that nothing happened just now.

"The last name is the region, what about the first name?"

"Mother Larsa met an international student friend when she was in school, and she was Chinese." Ke Ya glanced at Scotland and cooperatively did not expose him. This name was given to me, saying that this is the fate destined by God."

"So your name should be pronounced... Langshu Krasnodar?" Scotland thought for a while and said slowly.

"Sounds a bit strange." Ke Ya blinked and commented.

Scotland laughed again, and the conversation about names was over.He didn't ask how Kaya, who grew up in the orphanage, knew from her biological father that her mother was Japanese.

He also didn't ask how Kaya, who was still in Moscow ten years ago, joined the organization and came to Japan.

Although it seemed that he was always chasing after Kaya and asking some too personal topics.But he has a clear measure of what can be asked and what cannot be asked.

"Tomorrow's weather seems to be good for skiing."

After finishing speaking, Scotland shrank back into the hot spring, only showing the part above the nose, and spit out a string of bubbles childishly.

Ke Ya seemed to be infected by Scotland, and childishly stretched out her finger to poke the bubbles spit out by the other party, then retracted her hand and said nonchalantly: "Then go skiing tomorrow."

The next day turned out to be fine weather.Scotland followed Koya on the longest slope of the ski resort.

Scotland said that he can ski, but he just knows how to ski, and he can't cope with too complicated terrain.And when Kaya said that she could ski, it sounded more like a self-effacing statement.

The bloated and heavy ski suit can't conceal the lightness and dexterity in this person's movements.

Kaya stepped on the snowboard, jumping over obstacles like a ballet dancer tapping her dancing shoes on the snow.

Scotland was left far behind by him, and it was rare for Keya to be so "inconsiderate".

Scotland was very happy on the contrary. He could tell that Keya really liked skiing, so much that she could devote herself to it and didn't care about other things.

When Scotland reached the finish line, Ke Ya had already been waiting there.He handed the thermos to Scotland, took off the goggles and scarf himself, and let out a slow breath.

There was a layer of sweat on the tip of Keya's nose, and the gray eyes with contact lenses had a little reflection, and looked a little excited.

"Very happy?"

Scotland smiled and drank his water and asked him.

"Very happy..."

Ke Ya nodded, and squinted her eyes towards the direction of the sunlight: "It feels like flying, reaching out and touching the sky."

It's a pity that even if you really fly, you can't touch the sky, just like a vacation is just a short break in the endless work.

The one-month vacation slipped away quickly in happiness and comfort, and the New Year is coming.

Ke Ya dragged Scotland's lifeless body and consciousness back to Tokyo, drove him to the apartment downstairs, hesitated for a moment when saying goodbye, and stretched out his hand to grab Scotland who was about to turn around.

"What's wrong? Is there something wrong?"

Scotland has been very sloppy these days. The stubble on his chin doesn't shave when it grows out, adding two points of vicissitudes to his delicate face for no reason.

But looking at his pair of blue and gentle eyes, you can tell that this is definitely not a frustrated person tempered by life.

"New Year... do you have any plans?"

"Well... After the new year, there are a few seniors who need to visit."

Guessing what Keya was going to say, Scotland maliciously made circles with him.

"What about New Year's Eve?"

Ke Ya asked more specifically.

"I don't know yet, maybe someone wants to treat me to soba noodles and shochu on New Year's Eve."

Scotland leaned on his suitcase and looked at Keya with a smile, his brows and eyes narrowed.

"Understood, I will invite you out to eat soba noodles on New Year's Eve, and it's okay to treat you to drink shochu." Keya looked at Scotland and laughed, "I can also invite you to do other things, such as visiting shrines on New Year's Eve How about it?"

"Then I'll wait."

"Well, see you on New Year's Eve."

Ke Ya watched Scotland walk upstairs slowly with his luggage, and watched him walk out of the sunset in the dark kimono he had chosen all afternoon on New Year's Eve two weeks later, and slowly approached him.

Scotland wore this ultramarine-colored Fuji-patterned kimono representing the work of Keya in the afternoon, put his hands in his sleeves, and suddenly asked, "Kaya, do you know that giving kimonos to others in Japan has a special meaning?"

"Ok?"

In fact, Kaya, who is not very Japanese, does as the Romans do, and also wears a snow-colored dragonfly-patterned kimono.Hearing this, he turned his head and looked at Scotland, expressing that he was not clear.

In Japan, kimonos are ceremonial attire worn on formal occasions.Expensive, and basically not bought to wear for yourself.

The boss gives kimonos to his subordinates to show his care, and the elders give kimonos to their children to show their love.

And if one of two people of the same generation gives the other a kimono, it usually means love or a marriage proposal.

Because in ancient times, kimonos were given to their betrothed as an engagement ceremony.

But Kaya, who grew up in Russia, doesn't know much about Japan's customary customs.

It's just that after learning that kimonos are usually worn during New Year's visits, I found a shop with a good reputation and placed two urgent orders.

"I don't know."

Scotland did not intend to explain to Kaya, the two stood silently side by side among the joyful crowd, quietly waiting for the ringing of the bell representing the New Year.

Asking for a sign is also one of the processes of New Year's visits.Neither Kaya nor Scotland would believe such a thing.But he still followed the crowd waiting in line and asked for a lottery one by one.

Scotland: Fengze Zhongfu, like walking on thin ice - make a lottery.

Ke Ya: The Fenghuo family, look at the flowers in the mirror-make a lottery.

The two unlucky ones who had won the Xun hexagram looked at each other and laughed helplessly.

In the new year, Scotland is no longer Ke Ya's regular partner. As an excellent sniper, he wanders around in various missions that require his support, and he also partnered with two other members of the same Whiskey code to complete several missions.

Scotland, who returned from a mission, offered to invite Keya to dinner.Kaya sat in front of the grill carefully observing the doneness of the beef tongue, while distractedly listening to Scotch describe to him the sinister atmosphere of the choppy waves between bourbon and rye whiskey.

"So, I never knew why Bourbon hated Ley so much. Even though the two of them work together very efficiently, Bourbon has always been reluctant."

Keya didn't drink, so Scotch would drink by himself with the bottle, eating two mouthfuls of the meat that Keya had grilled and put on his plate from time to time, chanting, regardless of whether Kaya was listening carefully.

Ke Ya is indeed listening carefully, and will give a few feedbacks from time to time, so as not to let Scotland continue to speak unilaterally.

The female general of the restaurant brought up the special seasonal desserts, which were two cherry-colored wagashi.

Scotland changed his pair of chopsticks to pick up the cute wagashi and looked around, belatedly realizing that it was already April.

"Speaking of which, is it your birthday?"

Scotland remembered that Keya had told him her age when she went skiing years ago, so it was almost April birthday.

"Ok?"

Ke Ya's hand, which was turning over the barbecue, stopped. I don't know why Scotland suddenly asked this.

"Birthday, don't you say you don't remember your birthday?" Scotland bit off a corner of the wagashi and chewed it slowly in his mouth.

"April [-]th, what's wrong?"

Kaya announced the date of her birthday, and refilled the bottom of Scotland's teacup.

"Do you want me to accompany you on your birthday?"

Scotland held the teacup in his hand, looked at Keya tenderly, and showed a soft smile.

do you need?

Ke Ya froze for a moment, then subconsciously frowned and began to think.Scotland did not urge, as if he was just asking casually, holding a warm teacup and turning his head to look outside at the sycamore tree that had sprouted a large number of new leaves.

"I don't think I need to. I haven't celebrated my birthday for many years." But IELTS answered after a while. He thought Scotland would be disappointed, but it didn't.Scotland still held the cup of tea, but turned his head to look at Keya.

"But if you are willing to come and accompany me, I will be very happy." Ke Ya said the second half of the answer under Scotland's gaze.

Scotland didn't look surprised, and nodded calmly and as it should: "Then let's say that, I will come to celebrate your birthday with you in two weeks."

"Okay. I'm looking forward to it."

Five days later, Keya was debugging the detonation unit for the next mission in her safe house, when there was a familiar knock on the door impatiently.

There are only a few senior members of the organization who know about Ke Ya's safe house, and one of them is the owner of this very personal knock on the door.

Keya put down the things in her hand and opened the door with a cold face, but a silver pistol was pressed against her forehead the moment she opened the door.

"To be honest, I don't like this."

Ke Ya looked at the man with her indifferent gray eyes like glass beads, and the man looked at him with gloomy dark green eyes, snorted coldly and put down the gun.

Ke Ya took a step back and let the gin in, crossing her arms in front of her chest, with a clearly unwelcome gesture.

"what's up?"

Gin put away his, and sneered: "The file you left as a bait for the Japanese police has been tampered with."

"Which side are they from? Kberg or Heisha?"

The news brought by Gin made Ke Ya's face even colder.

"You would never have guessed it." Gin said in a disgusted tone with gloating misfortune: "It's Scotland."

"Scotland?"

Ke Ya subconsciously repeated.

"He is a mouse inserted by the Japanese police."

The author has something to say:

In the original book, Jing Guang committed suicide on December 25th when he was 12 years old. The other four members of the police academy also died on the 7th day. This is an unlucky number.

I moved ahead of time.
