[Conan] Overtime Archives

The second day in Kanagawa was definitely a busy day for Rei Fuburani.

However, he was never free. He used to have no problem working four jobs, but now he just showed his future parents-in-law a little bit of his overall quality, which is far from being tiring.

Woke up very early, after running around the residential area in the morning, I can still help to take care of the garden before breakfast, but I was rejected when I asked to wash the dishes after the meal (Ms. Gu Gu: Jasmine can do it too) I still assist Jasmine to clean the table, temporary stay The room is very clean, there are no clothes and garbage scattered around, and even the bathroom attached to the room has been cleaned (Mrs. Furuya: I should let my son come and learn it), the coffee making skills are superb, and he is obviously good at various things Chinese cooking and baking, with quick response and strong strength, it is not a problem to carry the wooden flower stand in the attic and go downstairs with one hand...

In just one morning, Fuguya Rei defeated Kato Ichiro, the well-behaved boy in Mrs. Furutani's heart, and was successfully promoted to the most admired young man by Mrs. Furutani.

Not to mention Mr. Furutani who is full of praise for him.

In the evening, Jiang Guling, who accompanied Mr. Furuya out for sea fishing, returned with a full load. He witnessed the incomparably harmonious relationship between them talking and laughing, as well as the weight of more than ten kilograms each brought out of the trunk. Big fish, although the old neighbors have their own ideas, it does not prevent them from producing a lemon-like sour.

——What's the matter with being a little envious?It must be that the fish is too fat!

Mrs. Gu Gu handled these big fish deftly.Because the refrigerator couldn't fit in it, she deliberately made friends with her neighbors and sent a lot of warmth to several nearby neighbors who had a good relationship.As a result, the neighbors who had just finished Lemon heard that the future husband of the youngest daughter of the Gugu family is a handsome mixed-race guy who can earn money and is capable.

Its speed, strength, and scope made Brother Furuya, who found time to call his sister to ask how the "battle situation" was at home, couldn't help being amazed. He finally understood how Kato Ichiro lost to Tianxiang—— To the all-around player, he is not wronged.

Dinner was the big fish the two men had caught.

The more Mr. Gu Gu looked at Jiang Gu Ling, the more pleasing to his eyes, there was a faint sign of surpassing his own son: the person who can hold his temper and accompany him to fish is definitely a hundred times better than that brat!

Seeing that her parents really recognized her boyfriend, Jasmine also felt a little proud: Sure enough, no difficulty was too difficult, and even his father who wanted to give him a hard time at first was easily handled by him.

In fact, it would be a lie to say that you are not moved.He is obviously a proud and stubborn guy, but he is willing to give up his image, and he looks like a good gentleman to help her mother carry heavy objects and discuss cooking; she has solved countless serious cases in the past, and regards time as money, and even used her power to obtain mediation Take the opportunity to attend her brother's wedding with her, and spend time fishing with the retired old gentleman...

Is this person trying to trap her and trick her into repaying him with the rest of her life?

It seems... not unacceptable?

For Jasmine, her career as a police officer was like digging soil in a desert.With the scorching sun above your head and the scorching earth under your feet, you shoulder the bounden duty of guarding the country and fighting criminals who will never stop.

But unexpectedly, she dug and dug and unearthed a treasure.

- that's great.

Jasmine was also filled with emotions, and at this moment she suddenly felt that there was no problem that she could not overcome.

Looking at her boyfriend who was still flattering Mr. Gu Gu with a sincere smile, Jasmine also had a bit of slyness in her smile: next time Zero Zai hints that she should get naturalized soon, do you want to follow her heart and go to the district office with him to get a job? What about the mission?

***

The next day.

Furutani Rei and Kato Ichiro met again at Brother Furutani's wedding. Although they were both smiling, they were already flirting with each other.

Afterwards, Kato Ichiro generously joined the groom's group of relatives and friends, chatting and laughing happily with everyone, completely unable to see the frustration of being killed by Jiang Gu Ling the night before yesterday.On the other hand, Rei Furutani showed his identity as "Jasmine's boyfriend" even more generously amidst the curiosity of the man's relatives and friends, and was officially certified by the Furutani couple, which made Kato Ichiro gritted his teeth secretly.

Seeing the little girl smiling and looking forward to go to the lounge to chat with the bride who is doing her final make-up, Brother Gu Gu was very emotional: "It's been a long time since I saw her so carefree." A shadow before leaving home to go to school in Tokyo.

Since entering university, Jasmine seems to have given up her ignorance as a teenager, and the training at the police academy has made her no longer connected with innocence. The two years of undercover work have made her thinner and thinner, and her face has long since lost the sincere look. Smile easily.She forgot the feeling of laughing, put away all fatal carelessness, and turned into a qualified public security policeman who was safe, cautious, tough and calm, and walked alone with both physical and psychological pain.

Sad growth.

Perhaps affected by the upcoming wedding ceremony, Brother Gu Gu had a rare emotional moment. He wanted to put the cigarette in his hand to his mouth several times but put it down again. Will you participate in long-term missions again?"

Jiang Gu Ling smiled: "Yes."

He had already reported the results of Jasmine's psychological evaluation, and the report analyzed in detail why she was no longer suitable for long-term undercover missions.Of course, the most important thing is the agreement between him and Director Li.

Brother Gu Gu sighed, not knowing whether he should relax or not.

On the other side, as soon as Jasmine walked outside the door of the lounge, Kato Ichiro called out, "Jasmine too."

"Kato-kun?" Jasmine also turned her head.

Kato Ichiro stared at her closely: "I... have something to say to you. Can I go outside?"

Jasmine also frowned, and took the shortest time to weigh the difference in force between the two sides. She decided that even if he wanted to launch an attack, she would not be at a disadvantage, so she breathed a sigh of relief: "Okay."

Because it is a Western-style wedding, there is a pleasant grove outside the auditorium.

The two left through the side door one after the other, Kato Ichiro remained silent, and Jasmine patiently waited for his "something to say".

After a long time, Kato Ichiro spoke when Jasmine was about to run out of patience: "Jasmine, do you... like Mr. Furuya very much?"

Jasmine also looked at Kato Ichiro solemnly, and her intuition told her that it was best not to let him continue, so she did not answer, but said in a deep voice: "Kato-kun, I wanted to tell you before, I shouldn't, I shouldn't There are many things to ask—of course, your question just now is one of them.”

Kato Ichiro's retreat was cut off, and there was no way to retreat.He couldn't bear it, and pointed out sharply: "Just because I am one year younger than you, do you always treat me as a younger brother and junior? Do you never care about my feelings for you?"

Jasmine also finally faced up to this young boy who was still somewhat childish.

"I liked you a long, long time ago. Do you know how much a young boy longs to be recognized by his crush? Do you know how much I like you? I'm afraid of you finding out, afraid of you leaving, afraid... You hate me..." Kato Ichiro was overwhelmed, and poured out all his secrets, "I chose to become a policeman because I heard that you went to the police academy after graduating from university, but, but you haven't even returned home these few years, Why? Do you hate me? Do you not want to see me?"

Jasmine also opened her mouth, but was interrupted by Ichiro Kato stretching out his hand in embarrassment: "No, don't say no yet! I'm sorry! Don't let me be sentenced to death so soon!"

So Jasmine also closed her mouth, her eyes revealing that she couldn't bear it.

"I know...I know..." Kato Ichiro held his head and slowly squatted down, "You are all elites among the elites, and there are no more than 500 people in Japan." He buried his head on his knees, "And I'm a good-for-nothing, not even in the quasi-professional group... How frustrating! I'm not as good as Jiang Guling, so I'm not worthy of Jasmine..."

"Kato-kun!"

Kato Ichiro slowly raised his head.The sun shines through the branches, casting a faint halo on Jasmine's body. This seems to be the scene he has seen in dreams countless times. Jasmine also stands in front of him like an angel, wearing a beautiful dress, shining brightly. Smiled and said to him——

"Kato-kun, you can't do this!"

It's a pity that dreams are dreams after all, his angel will not smile at him like that in reality, but will only show disapproving eyes to him, then scold him, turn and leave.

She is clearly within reach, but she still can't keep up with her progress.

So is it so painful to fall in love with an excellent person?

"...Don't go..." Kato Ichiro intermittently begged, looking at Jasmine pleadingly, "At least... listen to me... okay?"

Jasmine also said calmly: "Kato-kun, I already understand what you want to say. —— I'm sorry."

Kato Ichiro stood up all of a sudden, and asked excitedly: "Why? Am I really not good? Give me a chance! Yes, it's because I said it too late, right? If I told you earlier than him, if I can come again Once... Jasmine can also understand me and accept me?"

"I'm sorry, I can't understand it, let alone accept it." Jasmine also shattered his fantasy again, "Although I'm very sorry Kato-kun—if I do it again, I will make the same choice."

Kato Ichiro felt that he was about to suffocate: Why did she refuse so simply and completely, regardless of the feelings?

Grief and despair intertwined, his tears suddenly burst, and then flooded.

"Is it...? There's no difference..." His eyes were bent, and although he was forced to smile, tears kept sliding down his cheeks. Kato Ichiro cried like a child who couldn't get candy, "I... so sad, Jasmine too..."

The childhood sweetheart was still defeated by the Heavenly Soldier.

In Jasmine's memory, this may be the first time he has shown weakness so bluntly. A boy in his 20s, with his nose tipped and his eyes red from crying, looks pitiful and miserable.

You shouldn't be soft-hearted at this time, but after all, you are a neighbor who grew up together, and Jasmine can't let him cry here alone, so she took out a tissue from the small handbag she carried with her, and handed it to Kato Ichiro: "Wipe your face. "

"You..." Kato Ichiro covered his eyes, "Leave me here alone..."

Jasmine also said: "No, I am responsible for entertaining every guest today. Although I cannot accept your confession, I must at least see that your mood is stable before I can leave with peace of mind. I must ensure that you will not behave excessively. "

Kato Ichiro broke down: "Don't be so cruel to me! Anyway, we are also young tamers, right?!"

Jasmine also glanced at him unbearably, then looked away, and gently patted his shoulder like she used to do when she was at school with her neighbor brother who insisted on going home with her outside the school gate.

Time stands still, freezes, and rewinds rapidly.

This is one of the few intimate moments between the two that Kato Ichiro remembers, and it is also a sweet memory that he has cherished for many years.

After a while, Kato Ichiro calmed down a little, and his tears stopped.He suddenly said something: "Jasmine, have you never liked me?"

Jasmine also patiently guided him to walk back: "Katou-kun, I like you very much, but that is based on our being neighbors and has nothing to do with love. To me, you are not an insignificant stranger, otherwise I I don't care how you cry."

For some reason, Kato Ichiro wanted to cry again.

Back in the auditorium, Jasmine also watched Kato Ichiro reintegrate into the crowd, and said with a smile that she was accidentally blinded by the wind outside.

Jiang Gu Ling approached Jasmine lightly, stood beside her, and looked at Kato Ichiro along her line of sight.

"He told you all?"

Jasmine also nodded, with a heavy heart: "He... feels like a younger brother to me. In fact, Kato-kun is a very gentle and kind person in essence. I really can't do anything about this kind of person. I'm always afraid that what I said just now It was too heavy and hurt him."

——So when she was in the bar, she couldn't refuse Jing Guang's entrustment.

Jiang Gu Ling, who had understood this for a long time, asked lazily: "Then you don't care about my mood?"

—Are you angry again?

Jasmine also sighed, feeling that today one or two people are bothering her: "What kind of childish speech is this? Zero, you have become so strange."

"Because I'm jealous too." Taking advantage of no one's attention, Jiang Guling quickly pecked her on the face, and then complained half-truthfully, "You grew up together, he knows too much It's about your student days, and those are the pasts that I didn't participate in."

Jasmine also smiled: "But, my future is all about you."

——What kind of foul speech is this? !

Jiang Gu Ling was almost sunk by her. If Jasmine's words had power, Jiang Gu Ling would have been knocked unconscious at this moment.

"...Anyway," Fugu Rei tried to keep calm, and continued to cut off the opponent's retreat, "Katou-kun is very good at speaking, and it's a bit humiliating to be a small friend. Such a person should be recruited into our police team." Oops. , Mouth is sour.

Jasmine also held back her laughter, pretending to be regretful: "Unfortunately, Kato-kun doesn't seem to accept Mr. Furuya's solicitation."

Jiang Guling gave up his confusing behavior, pinched her nose, and said bitterly: "Are you confident?" Relying on his preference for her.

Jasmine also gave up as soon as she was ready, took the initiative to show weakness, tiptoed and touched his lips lightly, and then took his arm: "Let's go, the wedding is about to begin."

***

The wedding was very successful, the bride and groom were lawyers, their rigor was naturally reflected in the wedding preparations, and there were no surprises from the beginning to the end.

Therefore, at the end of the bouquet-throwing session that attracted the most attention, the bouquet representing the imminent birth of the next bride also naturally fell into the arms of the groom's younger sister, Jasmine, according to the bride's wishes.

Amid the well-intentioned booing from everyone, Jasmine also blinked her eyes, subconsciously looking at Jiang Gu Ling.

Furutani Rei was also looking at her.

The two smiled tacitly.

If there is no accident, they will move forward hand in hand in the following days and face the future together.

In the future, regardless of work or life, regardless of good times or bad times, regardless of health or disease, regardless of youth or old age, they will be in the same boat through thick and thin.They are the most suitable companions for each other--

"Hey, when shall we go to the ward office?"

"Anytime."

The author has something to say:

end!

But there is still a long, long episode...I always feel that the episode is the main body.
