Chapter 153: Loli and uncle, they really match

~7 min read 1,303 words

"Daughter, you are really not yourself today. Usually, you don't want to go on blind dates, but today you took the initiative to treat a man to dinner. Is there something wrong?"

Shinobu Sato’s eyes immediately lit up.

"No, I didn't treat him to dinner; I just made him some sushi."

Miwako Sato answered stuttering.

"What? You cooked for him?"

Shinobu Sato’s eyes widened.

She knew exactly what her daughter was like.

She was too lazy to move at home.

Cooking for a man was like the sun rising from the west.

"Mom, I'm a little tired, I'm going back to my room first."

Miwako Sato couldn't stand her mother’s scrutinizing gaze and escaped into her room.

Shinobu Sato blinked her large eyes, which were the same as her daughter’s, and they emitted an unusual light.

"My daughter seems to have fallen in love. It seems I need to investigate."

Akaso Kaze thought while driving back.

The death of Miwako Sato’s father, Masayoshi Sato, was a mysterious cold case that caused a great sensation at the Metropolitan Police Department at the time.

This case was very strange; the only clue was the process of the murderer committing the crime, which was filmed by the bank for less than ten seconds, but Masayoshi Sato quickly identified the criminal.

It's just, unfortunately, he didn't have handcuffs on him at the time, so he could only escort the criminal back.

Who knew he would be hit by a truck on the way, and the criminal would take the opportunity to escape.

At the last moment, Masayoshi Sato kept shouting "Shushiro" in the direction the criminal was fleeing.

The police investigated everyone related to this name, but they had no suspects.

In the speeding sports car, Akaso Kaze’s mouth curled slightly.

This case is actually not complicated.

For Tokyo’s strongest Onmyoji, it couldn't be simpler.

He would solve it for her whenever he had time.

Miwako Sato lay on the bed.

Akaso Kaze’s face and what he had said kept appearing in her mind.

The girl opened her red lips slightly and muttered to herself.

"When I was a child, I always thought about solving this case and catching the criminal. I even prayed to heaven that if someone could help me catch the murderer, I would be willing to do anything for him!"

"If Akaso-san does it..."

Miwako Sato’s face slowly turned red, and she curled up into the quilt.

If he does it, what should I do for him?

[Ding, Miwako Sato has developed a good impression of you; the current favorability is 2.]

Akaso Kaze returned home, and it was already quite late.

Just as he walked upstairs, Ayumi jumped up from the sofa.

"Brother Akaso is back."

"Hey, you haven't left yet?"

Akaso Kaze asked curiously.

"Sister Haibara has already called my mom; I'm sleeping with her today."

Ayumi’s face was full of joy.

"Huh? When did you two become sisters?"

Akaso Kaze was a little puzzled.

Ai Haibara was a teenage genius scientist, and it was quite rare for her to become sisters with a seven or eight-year-old girl.

Ai Haibara curled her lips and didn't say anything, which was considered an acknowledgment.

Little Ayumi took Akaso Kaze’s hand and walked straight to Ai Haibara’s room.

"Brother Akaso, it's time to tell us a bedtime story."

"Ah? A bedtime story?"

Akaso Kaze had a helpless expression, which made Ai Haibara smile.

This guy really has no way to deal with acting cute.

I should learn too.

Lying on Ai Haibara’s fragrant bed.

On the left was the shrunken loli, and on the right was the real little loli.

Akaso Kaze was in the middle, feeling very awkward.

He decided to finish the story quickly and go back to sleep.

"What story should I tell?"

"About animals? Or about a little fairy?" Akaso Kaze asked.

"Hey, they are all boring. Is there a cool story?"

Ai Haibara asked.

She had never heard that Akaso Kaze had the skill of telling stories, so she was very expectant.

A cool story?

Akaso Kaze thought for a moment and began to tell: "Once upon a time, there was an uncle named Leon, who was a professional killer, and he lived next door to a police informant."

"One day, a group of bad guys came to the door and killed the neighbor’s family, leaving only a little girl..."

Well, the story Akaso Kaze told was, of course, "Leon: The Professional" (without the... quiet).

Akaso Kaze’s voice was low and timeless.

The plot was also full of ups and downs.

The two little girls listened with their eyes wide open.

As for Akaso Kaze, he had seen this movie several times.

By the time he finished, he was so sleepy that he barely finished and fell into a dream.

The room was quiet for a while, and little Ayumi’s voice came.

"This story is really good?"

"Yeah." Ai Haibara also nodded.

"Loli and uncle, they really match..."

Both little girls’ eyes were shining with unusual light.

The next day was a holiday, which was something every office worker looked forward to.

After a week or even longer of busy work, having a day or two of time that you can completely control is a very enjoyable thing.

Miwako Sato curled up at home and became a homebody.

Lying on the bed eating mandarin oranges while watching TV variety shows, life was quite pleasant.

But unfortunately, the peaceful laziness was soon broken by her mother.

"Hey! Miwako!!"

Shinobu Sato looked at Miwako Sato lying in the kotatsu and said: "A dignified criminal of the First Investigation Division is lying lazily in the kotatsu eating oranges in broad daylight; this is too unseemly!"

"Oh, what's wrong with that? It's my day off today, at least let me relax."

Miwako Sato yawned lazily and waved her hand indifferently.

Facing her daughter’s laziness, Shinobu Sato directly placed a high stack of documents in front of Miwako Sato.

"I actually brought these blind date materials over again."

Miwako Sato dragged her chin, looking speechless.

"It's hard to get a day off, let me have some peace and quiet."

"Woo woo!! How did it become like this? How did you become such a tomboy with no femininity."

Miwako Sato’s words didn't work, but instead allowed Shinobu Sato to take the opportunity to show off her crying performance.

"I'm sorry for your father who died in the line of duty and left early! I let you be too free, that's why you became like this..."

As the saying goes, "Once the crying performance comes out, who can compete?" When an elder uses this move, it is almost an unsolvable killing move for the younger generation.

Soon Miwako Sato couldn't handle her mother’s offensive.

"Alright, alright, you can arrange one at random, but I'll say it first, it's just to meet up!"

"Oh, then it's a deal!"

Shinobu Sato’s eyes sparkled, revealing a successful look.

"Hey, what is this? Inviting me to dinner, is there a commission?"

Akaso Kaze looked curiously at the message sent to his phone.

"Shinobu Sato? Isn't that Miwako’s mother?"

Although the content was not specified in the commission, Akaso Kaze decided to go and see.

Maybe it's about Miwako’s father.

The meeting place was at Suidoro in Haido Town, a Japanese restaurant.

Miwako Sato was wearing a formal kimono, looking very dignified and ladylike, but her expression was a bit unhappy.

Looking at her mother who was staring at her tightly, afraid that she would run away, Miwako Sato sighed helplessly countless times.

However...

"Mom, it's already this late, not being punctual, I don't think he's a good man either."

Miwako Sato looked at her watch, suddenly stood up, with an angry expression on her face, but she was happy inside.
