Pretending to Be a Good Person in the World of Conan

It's a pity that Hidesuke Ochiai realized at this time that he had run out of money and couldn't afford a suitable venue at all.

An old friend learned of his situation, and after a long talk with him, Hidesuke Ochiai donated those paintings to his friend's exhibition hall.

He worked as the curator in it, and became an artist who didn't love art so much. He sat in the exhibition hall every day and stared at the paintings left by his daughter for a long time.

Ayaya Manaka followed the old path that Hidesuke Ochiai had walked. He abandoned literature and art to earn money.Although he didn't inherit the production capacity of hundreds of millions of households, he was very lucky in business and was very willing to let go, and gradually became the big boss of the wealthy party.

Shinaka also always wanted to get the painting that Aoi Ochiai valued so much. He felt that the old man who was unwilling to treat his daughter did not deserve to have it.

But when he went to discuss with the owner of the exhibition hall, he learned that "Punishment of God" was the only work that Ochiai Hidesuke had not donated.And no matter how much money was paid, the elderly curator refused to sell it.

After donating the collection, the curator Ochiai has nothing but a painting, and the rich boss, but the only one who can't get the painting is the owner of the painting. In this way, a contradictory and regretful alternation of fate is staged.

Chapter 61

In the virtual world, Ochiai Hidesuke hired a very professional medical team.

Thanks to the efforts of the doctors and the fabrication of the creator, Aoi Ochiai got better day by day.

After recovering, Ochiai Aoi was taken home.

Having experienced the despair of dying relatives twice, Ochiai Hidesuke is not so rigid anymore. He no longer interferes with Ochiai Aoi's affairs too much, and only occasionally reminds her to eat and take medicine on time.

After her physical condition stabilized, Aoi Ochiai held a small party and invited a few acquaintances.

The venue has become more luxurious, but the atmosphere and people are still the same as before.

In the center of the hall was an oil painting covered with a black cloth. After the dinner party, Ochiai Aoi raised her hand and tore off the cloth covering "Punishment", revealing the powerful knights and demons in the painting.

"This should be my last oil painting."

As soon as Ochiai Aoi spoke, her classmates were startled, thinking that the serious illness had caused some sequelae.

Ochiai Aoi originally had a stern face, full of pain.

After a few seconds, she finally couldn't help laughing:

"Just kidding~ When I want to paint, I will paint again. But compared to oil painting, I still prefer colored lead and gouache, and costume design, um...medieval literature is also good."

Talking a little far, Ochiai Aoi stopped talking and looked at the oil painting again:

"This "Punishment of Heaven" is drawn with the style and painting method that my father is good at, adding some 'deep understanding' fabricated by myself, the award is just to prove my father's talent.

"Compared to it, I still prefer-"

She raised her hand and pressed the mechanism hidden on the side of the picture frame.

The oil painting that was frequently praised by the audience began to crack, and the hidden painting appeared in front of everyone.

Different from the "Punishment" on the outside, the brushstrokes on the inside are soft. On the light blue sky and the boundless grass, Zhen Zhongxuan is also very cramped and straight, sitting on a wooden chair.

In the painting, Ochiai Aoi is holding a bouquet of flowers, kneeling on the ground, and looking at him with a smile—this turned out to be a marriage proposal scene.

"I still prefer this style." Offscreen, Aoi Ochiai took two steps back, admiring her own work amidst good-natured laughter.

Xuan also stared blankly at the painting, her lips moved, and she didn't speak for a while.

Ochiai Aoi turned her head to look at him for a while, then suddenly approached and grabbed his hand:

"I've been waiting for you for three years since I entered school. I can't wait any longer."

"So, those words of confession are up to..."

"No need!" Shinaka also had a huge reaction, he wanted to run away in embarrassment, but before he could take a step, Ochiai Aoi threw her down and pushed her onto the sofa.

The two instantly took the same pose as in the painting.

"...Xiao Kui, I don't deserve it." If he really wanted to push it away, Makasaka would of course be able to push away the girl who had just recovered from a serious illness, but of course he couldn't do that.

Shinaka can only tremble and bury her face in her palms, her thoughts are confused, and she says upside down:

"I almost killed you. If I hadn't misunderstood your dad's meaning that day, no... I didn't make it clear that he said something misleading. If he didn't go to the hospital..."

"So you are struggling with this." Ochiai Aoi laughed and patted his hand, "I was shocked, I thought you were going to say 'I only see you as a younger sister'."

Shinobu shook her head silently.

"Okay, raise your head and show your face." Ochiai Aoi squeezed his chin a few times, she said with a smile:

"That day happened to be Friday, if you hadn't found out that I didn't go to school and came to find me, I would have died alone in the rental house.

"At the end of the day, our current relationship is still just ordinary classmates who like each other.

"You are anxious for a person who has no blood relationship and is not in contact with you, because I went bankrupt to pay for medical bills, and put down my face to help me borrow money. I am very grateful for these.

"You just didn't achieve the best results, just like those people who went into the water to save people, and then returned to the shore with choking in the middle of the swim. You are not capable, but you tried your best. .”

"..."

Ochiai Hidesuke was still angry at the man who suddenly confessed his daughter's confession, but after hearing this passage, his face turned pale again.

"Don't think too much about it." After coaxing her, Luoai Aoi walked over to see her father's expression, suddenly turned his head, and kissed that wrinkled face.

Ochiai's father froze, trying hard to hold his expression, but the corners of his lips under the beard still curled up.

"You should smile more like this. If you keep frowning all the time, your gray hair will become more and more."
