Chapter 258: Wind Goddess Restaurant
Chapter 258: Wind Goddess Restaurant
"Seriously, your final exams for the second year of high school are almost coming up, right? Aren't you going to review?" Karasuma Akimitsu was quite surprised when he was dragged out.
But Suzuki Sonoko didn't even look at Karasuma Akimitsu, but stared at Haneba Haku behind him, and then said with a look of joy: "Ah, Haneba-san? Long time no see! What were you busy with before?"
Hanaba Haku smiled and said, "Well, I was busy with some things before, and I've finished them now."
Suzuki Sonoko was stunned for a moment, and looked at Hanako Hanako, who was wearing a dark blue casual suit and had his long hair tied into a low ponytail, from head to toe in surprise, before saying, "Hanako-san...he gives people a completely different feeling."
"Is it different? What did Bai look like before?" asked Karasuma Akimitsu curiously.
"...I feel like I have just come out of a psychological counseling room for three months. My whole mentality is healthier." Suzuki Sonoko's description is very accurate.
"...Ah? Are you saying that everything is normal now?" Karasuma Akimitsu pondered the meaning of these words.
Suzuki Sonoko laughed and raised her hand, patting Hanaba Shira's shoulder without any hesitation: "Anyway, it seems that you are mentally and physically healthy now. That's great."
Hanaba Haku looked embarrassed: "Really? Thank you."
"Okay, let's not talk about him. What happened today?" Karasuma Akimitsu tapped Suzuki Sonoko's head with a fan.
"Do you know the Wind Goddess Restaurant?" Suzuki Sonoko said with her hands on her hips and a smile.
Karasuma Akimitsu shook his head, but felt that it sounded familiar.
"Is it the one in Kanagawa Prefecture?" Haneba Shira was a little surprised.
"Yes, this restaurant is in Miss Yoko's TV series. It is said that the reservation is booked up to two years later! I got a lunch reservation, let's go." Suzuki Sonoko looked at her watch happily. It was only nine o'clock. It would take more than two hours to drive there, so there was more than enough time.
Shiraha Haba opened the door of the white Mazda, and Suzuki Sonoko and Karasuma Akimitsu both sat in the back seat.
"Why isn't it a Bentley?" Suzuki Sonoko asked curiously.
"Shiro prefers to drive the Mazda, I don't care what I ride." Karasuma Akimitsu explained, "By the way, are we the only ones having lunch?"
"No, there's also Uncle Mori and Professor Agasa, who will bring Conan and the rest of the Young Detectives. You know, Uncle Mori is a fan of Miss Yoko."
Habashiro tightened his grip on the steering wheel.
"Oh...but the goddess of wind off Kanagawa...wait, I think I heard this name once again today." Karasuma Akimitsu held the fan bone against his chin, trying to recall.
"This morning." Hanaba Haku reminded, "During breakfast, Uozuka seemed to have said that he had also made a reservation at this restaurant."
"Uozuka?" Karasuma Akimitsu suddenly remembered and tapped his hands with his folding fan. "Oh, right, he said today is a pilgrimage to the holy land."
"Anyway, there are a lot of people here this time. By the way, do you still remember the Junior Detective Team? Those kids really like you."
"I'm sorry, I have no memory of what I said to you." Karasuma Akimitsu shook his head, "Child?"
Suzuki Sonoko counted with his fingers: "Yes, six."
"Is there room in Dr. Agasa's car? Why don't we go and pick him up?" Karasuma Akimitsu suggested.
"No need, Uncle Maori said he would rent a car, ok let's go to the Goddess of the Wind Restaurant first."
Karasuma Mingguang nodded, and then couldn't help asking: "Who is the uncle Maori you are talking about?"
"..."
"The sleeping great detective - Kogoro Mori." Haku Haneba reminded calmly from the front.
Karasuma Mingguang rested his fan on his chin and thought for a while: "I think I have seen him on TV with my family. I didn't expect that you, Sonoko, know such a person."
"...Xiao Guang." Suzuki Sonoko looked at Karasuma Akimitsu with tears in her eyes for a while, then rushed over and hugged Karasuma Akimitsu, "It's okay, Xiao Guang, even if you get Alzheimer's disease early, you are still my Xiao Guang."
Karasuma Akimitsu used his hands to block Suzuki Sonoko's face as she leaned forward: "What do you mean by Alzheimer's? I'm only 20."
"Oh, oh, oh, Xiaoguang, you're only one year older than us. You'll only be 19 in April, so there's still more than a month left."
"..." Karasuma Akimitsu's face was full of helplessness.
Suzuki Sonoko didn't care and continued to howl: "Xiaoguang, I believe you will remember it sooner or later."
When they arrived at the destination, it was still early. Suzuki Sonoko looked at her watch and said, "They haven't arrived yet. They obviously left earlier than us."
"Let's contact him by cell phone?" Karasuma Akimitsu suggested, "Maybe he's lost?"
"Nowadays, we all use mobile navigation. They are still lost..." Suzuki Sonoko took out her mobile phone and found that she had received an email. "Ah... they are really lost. Dr. Agasa was just issued a ticket for speeding."
"Who sent the email?" Karasuma Akimitsu asked casually.
"Conan." Suzuki Sonoko's tone was a little depressed and disgusted.
Karasuma Akimitsu tilted his head slightly, as if he was somewhat confused about Suzuki Sonoko's attitude towards this child.
"Let's go in first. Come with Mr. Haneba, don't wait in the parking lot."
The three of them entered the restaurant. Suzuki Sonoko had ordered a long table that could seat twelve people. Karasuma Akimitsu inferred from the table and the restaurant decoration that this should be a French meal with separate meals.
But as soon as he sat down, Karasuma Akimitsu noticed that Haba Haku stiffened for a moment.
"Uozuka?" Karasuma Akimitsu followed his gaze and saw the small table by the window.
The voice attracted Vodka's attention. He stood up in a hurry and said, "Master? Why are you ordering food here today?"
"Who is this?"
Vodka was in a very good mood and patted the shoulder of the person next to him: "This is the Tobita Otoroku I mentioned last time. He is my new colleague."
Karasuma Akimitsu smiled softly: "Date?"
"This is a holy land parade for us to share." Vodka was full of joy, not caring about Karasuma Akimitsu's teasing. "Tobita is a newcomer who just joined the fan club, but we surprisingly get along very well. Our favorite songs and live performances are exactly the same. By the way, Tobita, this is my boss Karasuma Akimitsu. Don't be shy, he has a very good temper."
The man called Tobita Otoroku, who was actually Kazami Yuya, stood next to Vodka. Although he still maintained a poker face, Haba Shiro could easily see that his pupils were shaking.
"Mr. Karasuma... Mr. Karasuma? Hello!" Kazami Yuya tried not to look at the Haku Haba next to him. He had been surprised by Karasuma's appearance when Akimitsu Karasuma was chasing the thieves before, but the Haku Haba next to him. That face... he had also personally verified that he was dead not long ago.
"Hello, I hope you and Uozuka have fun." Karasuma Akimitsu nodded politely before looking at Vodka, "Have fun."
"Okay, Master."
Suzuki Sonoko, who was standing behind them, held up her chin as she watched Karasuma Akimitsu and Haba Haku come back: "That's your bodyguard too, right? The one called Uozuka..."
"Yes, he has taken care of me for a long time. He is more like my brother. That's why he speaks casually." Karasuma Akimitsu explained patiently, "But after I inherited the Karasuma family, it was not convenient for him to take care of me like before."
Suzuki Sonoko tried to imagine it, but couldn't come up with an idea: "How to take care of it?"
"Combing hair, putting on clothes and so on." Karasuma Akimitsu recalled. Later, Vodka even learned manicure. It can be said that he is becoming more and more versatile.
"wear clothes?"
"Kimono or something, you know it's troublesome to put on."
"...She's a really qualified babysitter." Suzuki Sonoko held her chin up, "I thought all these things were done by Mr. Hamura."
"All." Karasuma Akimitsu saw the waiter leading a group of people in from the entrance and exit of the parking lot, and the children's voices were loud and bright.
"Ah! It's Brother Karasuma!" Ayumi's voice was clear.
Mitsuhiko and Genta looked at Karasuma Akimitsu with their mouths wide open: "She really looks like Sister Xiaoguang."
"Yeah, Karasuma-san might be a relative of Xiaoguang-san or something. Just like Miyuki and Xiaolan-san, they look very similar." Ayumi said happily.
When Huiyuan Ai entered the restaurant, she felt something was wrong. After looking around, she saw Vodka sitting by the window. Her pupils shrank and she hid behind Himimi Yuki tremblingly.
This was the first time that Kogoro Mouri and Professor Agasa met Karasuma Akimitsu. Seeing his face that looked more like him than in the photo, both of them froze for a moment.
"Have you met Brother Karasuma?" Conan was surprised.
"The day before Valentine's Day, Karasuma-san gave us chocolates." Himimiyuki felt Haibara Ai clutching the hem of her clothes from behind and thought she was shy again.
Suzuki Sonoko introduced the few people to each other.
Only then did Conan notice Haku Hanaba behind him.
His face turned pale, and he looked at Hakuba as if he saw a dead ghost resurrected. Conan took a few steps back and bumped into the stomach of Professor Agasa behind him.
Dr. Agasa looked at Haneba and greeted him, "Mr. Haneba, you are here too."
Conan turned to look at Dr. Agasa in surprise.
Haba Haku nodded gently: "I am the bodyguard of the Karasuma family, specializing in protecting the head of the family."
"Really? That's right, you used to protect Xiaoguang." Dr. Agasa suddenly realized, then lowered his head and whispered to Conan, "A few days ago, Mr. Yuba came to me to customize a voice changer. Maybe he heard about it from Xiaoguang before."
"Voice changer?" Conan turned pale and swallowed.
Karasuma Akimitsu continued to exchange a few words with the children, promised to give Genta and Mitsuhiko some chocolate next time, and then looked at Haibara Ai behind Himimiyuki.
"Is this... the shy little Huibara?" Amid the surprised eyes of the other children, Karasuma Akimitsu stretched out his hands and passed them under Huibara Ai's armpits, picked up the frightened Huibara Ai, and patted her on the back gently, "Don't be afraid, the food at the Wind Goddess Restaurant should be delicious, and you'll feel better if you eat something delicious."
Ai Huihara gently grasped the cloth on Karasuma Akira's chest. The familiar smell made her dazed. It was the same shampoo scent as Xiao Guang's. Ai Huihara put her face close to Karasuma Akira's neck and smelled the scent of her sister: "...Sister?"
"Brother, it's my brother." Karasuma Akimitsu smiled and touched Huihara Ai's head, "Don't be afraid."
Suzuki Sonoko crossed her arms and looked at him for a while, then raised her eyebrows: "Isn't this child usually very little like an adult? Now he wants to be hugged?"
"Sister Sonoko, Ai is actually very shy. If I hadn't wanted to come out today, she would have stayed at Professor Agasa's house to look after the house." Himimiyuki pulled on Suzuki Sonoko's skirt and explained.
Suzuki Sonoko looked down at Hime Miyuki, and spoke in a gentle tone unconsciously: "Oh Miyuki, you are so cute. Come here, sister will hug you too."
