Chapter 17
The hottest time of summer is approaching, and Didan High School naturally ushered in the summer vacation, but the day before the vacation was the day when Shinichi and Xiaolan made an appointment to meet.
If there was anything special that happened that day, it would probably be that GIN's expressionless face looked even colder now.Xin always felt that the jealous jar was overturned again. After knowing that he was going to meet Xiaolan alone, he kept a cold face all day long, and he almost wrote the words "I'm jealous" on his face.
Shinichi thinks this kind of GIN is really funny and cute, obviously he should be angry, angry that he ignores him, and even throws a tantrum to protest, but Shinichi just can't get angry.After all, it was because he really cared about himself.
The meeting with Xiaolan seemed to be expected. Xinyi thought that one day he would have to face such a situation, but he didn't expect it to come so fast. Before he had fully organized his thoughts to express, he just Hastily came.
"Lan, what do you want to talk to me about?"
Although he likes GIN now, Xiaolan and him are childhood sweethearts after all, even if there is no affection between lovers, he still treats her as a good friend and sister.
To Xiaolan, he really couldn't say anything particularly hurtful.
But Shinichi didn't know that sometimes, he would do hurtful things instead of saying hurtful things.Although maybe he doesn't want to, but he can't help himself, because emotion is not something that can be explained by reason and science.
Although many things, not on purpose.
[I don't kill Boren, but Boren died because of me], that's the truth.
"Xinyi, can you tell me what happened during the time you disappeared?"
"Uh... why did you ask this all of a sudden?"
Hearing Xiaolan's words, Shinichi was a little flustered, after all, that period of time was a memory that must be kept in the bottom of his heart, and he couldn't easily take it out and share it with others.
"Because... I saw you and Mr. Kurosawa..."
"Lan." Hearing this, Xinyi couldn't help interrupting Xiaolan, as if he knew what she would say next, "There are some things that I don't want to hide from you, nor do I want to deceive you."
Xinyi worked hard to clear his mind and organize his words: "You came out to me, and I can probably guess why. I thought about it before, and you will definitely come to ask me one day, but I didn't think about it. It will come so soon. But since you asked, I can't lie to you. That is, as you think, I am dating Kurosawa."
Even though he didn't want to hide anything, even though he tried hard to have the courage to speak out, he still couldn't bear to look at the eyes of the girl sitting across from him who might shed tears at any time.
Hurting a girl was never what he wanted, but he had to do it.
The longer the emotional matter is dragged on, the more damage it will do to Xiaolan. He really doesn't want to wait until the matter has reached the point where it can't be dealt with before telling the whole story. It may be too late by then.
"It turns out...it's true."
In fact, Xiaolan was not surprised. She was already prepared to get the answer when she heard it from GIN that day, but when the answer came from Shinichi, Xiaolan still felt inexplicable. I want to cry in pain.
However, she couldn't shed a single tear.
"You really noticed it."
"Girls always have a strong sixth sense, not to mention..." You guys are doing it so obviously, it's hard not to notice it, "It's just that I never thought that one day... Shinichi, you will abandon me. "
"Lan, you are a very good girl, no one will doubt this. Even if it is not me who will be by your side from now on, there will definitely be someone better who will come to your side and love and protect you you."
For Xiaolan, Shinichi is always guilty, and that indescribable sense of guilt always surrounds him deeply, even though he knows that he didn't mean it.
"You must not know how happily I used to imagine being your bride one day, but now, all of this seems to be just the most beautiful dream I have ever had." Xiaolan pulled a wry smile from the corner of her mouth, thinking I tried to smile happily, but I couldn't do it, "And your disappearance made me feel more concerned about gain and loss, as if I would never be able to catch you, but the truth is, I really didn't catch you, and you finally belonged to A man who feels strange to me."
"I'm sorry, Ran."
"Why do you have to apologize? It's not your fault." Xiaolan smiled wryly and shook her head, "Emotions are two-way, but feelings are independent. Just because I like you doesn't mean you must like me. However I like you, but you don't like me, it is bound to be doomed to make this mistake. This is an unavoidable thing."
However, even though she understood all this, she still felt very sad.
"However, I want to know more about how you and Kurosawa-sensei got together? I asked Kurosawa-sensei, but Kurosawa-sensei refused to tell."
"Since he didn't tell you, it means he doesn't want you to know too much. I can probably understand why he didn't tell you, and I think I will agree with him."
"Why?" Why are you all refusing to say?
She just wanted to know what she had missed and where she had left behind.
"I'm sorry, Lan. There are some things that I don't want to tell you, but I can't tell you. If you know too much, you will be in more danger. Please don't ask why. You have to know that I will never hurt you."
How could Shinichi not know what GIN was thinking, but that man thought so much because of him, it was really a little touching.However, he was still a little helpless, why did this man suddenly become so naive, and actually went to talk to Lan in advance, really... a child is jealous.
"It seems that during the time you disappeared, a lot of things happened. I think it was very dangerous."
When Xiaolan heard Xinyi say this, she knew that something dangerous must have happened, but Xinyi didn't want her to know these things because she wanted to protect her safety.
She understands all these reasons, but even so, as a girl, she still has the curiosity to reveal the secret.These are also understandable, but she can't ask, if she asks, it will definitely bring trouble to Xinyi, her feeling told her so.
"Well, so, Lan, I'm sorry. I really can't say, just act as if nothing happened, and stop asking the whole story, okay?"
"……it is good."
Can she answer other answers? Of course the answer is no. What choice does she have besides agreeing to him.
Shinichi, in fact, you are really soft-hearted, but if you are too soft-hearted, it is actually a kind of harm to girls, you must not know it.
She would rather you be indifferent and ruthless to her, and she doesn't want you to still take such gentle care of her, which makes her feel that she is still very important in your heart.This illusion is really unacceptable.
The two planned to leave after drinking coffee in the revolving coffee shop, but everything went against their wishes, and the seventh floor of the Mihua Building was bombed.The sparks and explosive power that burst out in an instant completely burned the entire floor, while Shinichi and Xiaolan, who were on the 36th floor, were directly trapped at the highest point of the building.
The safe passage was burned layer by layer by the spreading fire, and the sightseeing elevator was suspended on the 17th floor and malfunctioned.
For a moment, the entire building was plunged into endless crisis.
"Cough cough..."
Shinichi, who was choked by the thick smoke that was gradually spreading up, couldn't help coughing, but he still cared about the girl around him. This was his instinct as a boy, and he couldn't let the girl be in danger.
"Lan, let's go up the security stairs and see if we can open the door on the top floor of the building."
"it is good."
Xiaolan also understood the seriousness and urgency of the situation, and didn't care about the sadness just now, she dragged Xinyi who was still coughing and ran up the safety stairs quickly.
Shinichi's head was dizzy for a while, and he tried to wake himself up, and then he remembered that he had a cold wind in the middle of the night before and hadn't recovered yet.Now with the scorching heat of the fire and the stimulation of thick smoke, it is even more uncomfortable.
"Lan, if you can open the door to the roof, remember to call Kurosawa."
Handing over the mobile phone in the hands of Xiaolan, the new leader looked back at the still spreading fire and the guests trapped in the lobby, frowned and resolutely ran back.
"New One!"
Knowing Xinyi for so long, how can Xiaolan not know what he wants to do, but she can't stop him from saving people, she can't do anything.
"Xinyi! You come back!"
But Shinichi didn't answer her until he disappeared around the corner.
Xiaolan clenched the phone tightly, as if she had made up her mind, turned around and ran quickly to the top floor. The door to the roof was locked by a huge iron chain, and it couldn't be opened without a key.
But Xiaolan has no other choice, she must open the door of the rooftop, she must save Shinichi and everyone.
While kicking the door vigorously, she turned on Xinyi's cell phone, and found the name [Zhen] in the address book. She was stunned for a moment before hesitatingly pressing the call button.
"Beep... beep... hello?"
On the other side of the phone came a man's voice that was both familiar and unfamiliar. The deep and charming voice was naturally intoxicating, but Xiaolan had no time to take care of it: "Mr. Kurosawa, I'm Mao Lilan. Shinichi and I are now in the Mihua building. The building here suddenly exploded and caught fire. Shinichi and I were trapped in the building. Now I am trying to find a way to open the door to the roof. Shinichi ran back to save other people. Although I don’t I know exactly what you do, Mr. Kurosawa, but Shinichi asked me to call you, so I believed you. Please be sure to save Shinichi.”
"...How sure are you that you can open the door?"
The voice on the other end of the phone sounded extremely calm, but only those who knew him well knew how f-ckingly anxious he was right now.
"The gate is locked with chains, so I'm not sure."
It's true, no matter how good she is in karate, she can't compete with metal.
"You do your best and I'll be there in 15 minutes. How much longer is there?"
"At most... half an hour."
"Okay, wait for me. Also, Maori-san, please tie Shinichi back even if he is knocked unconscious!"
After that, he hung up the phone directly.
God knows how angry and anxious he is now.
"What are you looking at, tell the FBI to go to the Mihua Building to save people!"
When Xiaolan finished the first sentence, GIN turned on the loudspeaker, and naturally everyone in the room heard the whole story.
"Yes, yes, it makes you anxious."
Amuro raised his hands in surrender.
But when he said this, he was also nervous and worried in his heart, so his movements were particularly nimble.
Notifying the Japanese police is also a matter of the next second, but let the FBI know it. This is the territory of other countries, and it is not good for a group of foreigners to get involved.
But he decided not to say that. After all, someone has forgotten these regulations in such a hurry, and only thinks about his wife.
Amuro rolled his eyes helplessly.
The sky is big and the earth is big, but in the end the daughter-in-law is the biggest.
