Chapter 304 Mami-senpai's Attack
The day after the Kudo couple returned to Los Angeles from Japan, Ran Mouri and Sonoko Suzuki started a major cleaning of the Kudo residence, and Hiko Akutagawa, who had nothing else to do, was also dragged into it by Sonoko Suzuki.
Since Akutagawa himself often borrowed books from the Kudo residence's study and basement library, which were comparable to a library, helping to tidy up wasn't a difficult task, so he naturally had no objections.
Ran Mouri looked somewhat worried, and her best friend Sonoko Suzuki noticed it immediately. She didn't even bother to chat with Hiko Akutagawa before rushing over to ask what was wrong.
"Ah, Shinichi's mother left so suddenly, I didn't even have a chance to say hello to her or ask about Shinichi's recent situation. It's a bit of a pity."
Upon hearing that it was about Shinichi Kudo, Sonoko Suzuki immediately put on a gossipy expression.
It is said that those involved are often blinded by their own interests, but she, as an outsider, sees things most clearly. Since Shinichi Kudo's parents and those closest to him are not worried about Shinichi Kudo, there must be no problem.
Moreover, Shinichi, that reasoning fanatic, still calls back from time to time, which clearly shows Ran's importance in his heart, comparable to reasoning, or even higher.
"Speaking of which, Ran, you and Shinichi were each other's first love, right?"
Ran obviously didn't think so. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Although she kept pointing out his flaws, in Ran's eyes, Shinichi Kudo was perfect in every way.
In addition, although the two were childhood sweethearts, they weren't together all the time. In her opinion, it was normal for Shinichi Kudo to have one or two relationships.
In a sense, this could be considered a sign of a lack of self-confidence.
In contrast, Sonoko Suzuki had much more confidence in Shinichi Kudo and Ran Mouri.
"No way. Although that big-shot deduction maniac is very good at crime scenes, he is actually very slow-witted and has no patience. His only advantage is that his mother is a big star, and he probably inherited her good looks."
Sonoko Suzuki wanted to continue teasing, but Ran, whose face turned bright red, stopped her: "Sonoko, if you keep joking, I'm really going to get angry!"
It's not very intimidating at all.
"Speaking of which, who was Ah Yan's first love? Did we know each other?"
The topic suddenly shifted to himself, which Akutagawa Hiko hadn't expected, but there was nothing wrong with talking about it: "Ah, no, not at all."
"?!" ×3
Akutagawa Hiko looked puzzled: "Why do you all look so surprised? Is it really that surprising that you've never been in a relationship?"
As for romance, aside from Amuro Tooru's mother, who used to like Ai Haibara and her sister, and now treats the land beneath his feet as his girlfriend, it seems like no one in his agency has ever been in a relationship.
Subaru Okiya's reason was personal; he dared not step into the whirlpool of emotions. Toshiya Tadokoro's reason was family; he didn't have the time, energy, or financial resources.
Conan pushed up his glasses, his lips twitching slightly.
It turns out that when he was handling the case, his analysis of the emotions of those men and women was all based on theory. To some extent, he was indeed a genius.
Sonoko Suzuki was overjoyed and speechless for a moment, so Ran asked on her behalf, "Because you, Hiko, are so outstanding in appearance, everyone feels comfortable around you and always feels that you are the kind of person with rich emotional experiences."
Akutagawa Hiko scratched his head, not quite understanding what this comfortable feeling of getting along meant.
If I had to say, he would show a clear preference for these familiar characters, and since he is perfectly capable of "not eating beef," he can act rather freely.
After regaining her composure, Sonoko Suzuki asked with some anticipation, "Has Hiko ever thought about starting a relationship and experiencing the joys of love?"
After some deliberation, Akutagawa Hiko decided to be frank with Suzuki Sonoko about his views on love. If she couldn't accept them, he should give up as soon as possible. They could still be good friends even if he didn't say it out loud.
"For me, dating is just a stage before marriage, a lifelong commitment. I won't take the first step if I don't see a future where we can walk hand in hand into the end."
In other words, in Akutagawa Hiko's view, from falling in love to getting married and growing old together, it should all be with the one destined for you. If he sees a possible detour, he will stay where he is and wait for the next possibility.
In the words of his former friends, his naive viewpoint was a recipe for disaster, destined for him to be alone forever.
Akutagawa Hiko, on the other hand, felt that being single wasn't so bad. He hadn't changed his mind in the past, and now that he had such strength as a foundation, he naturally had no intention of changing his mind.
In some ways, he is a very stubborn person.
Sonoko Suzuki was not disappointed at all. In her opinion, this view of love and marriage, which was somewhat strange in modern times, was tailor-made for her.
The idea of "one love for life, one partner, one mistake" is such a romantic notion. For a man who has remained single because of this belief, and whose first love is his last love, the possibility of him falling for someone else or cheating is incredibly low.
Her parents and even her older sister say she's love-struck and easily gets taken advantage of in relationships, with a high chance of being cheated out of money and affection. Now, she's just happened to meet someone who, once they start dating, is almost impossible to betray.
What else could this be but a match made in heaven?!
Of course, faced with this "cowardly" view of love, she herself must also be prepared to prove that she is a trustworthy person.
Looking at that determined face, Akutagawa Hiko had a feeling that trouble was about to follow, but he also felt a little bit of anticipation.
They chatted while working, and both the time spent and the progress of cleaning were quite fast. However, the sudden doorbell rang, which caught their attention.
"Is that Professor Agasa?"
"It shouldn't be. Professor Agasa knows we're here, and we didn't lock the door. If there's anything, we can just come in."
There was no point in guessing, so Ran Mouri simply opened the door, only to find a beautiful woman she didn't recognize at all.
Sonoko Suzuki used to be quite fond of collecting information on handsome men, and as everyone knows, handsome men and beautiful women always appear in groups, so she naturally also collected a lot of information on influential women.
Among them is none other than Uchida Asami, who is known as the dream girl of all the boys at Teitan Middle School.
"Could it be that you're Mami-senpai?"
Asami Uchida smiled gently: "So, there are junior students who recognize me?"
Sonoko Suzuki quickly told Ran about Uchida Asami's identity: "She's such a fangirl, how come she doesn't even recognize our Teitan Middle School's big star?"
