Chapter 432: The beginning of the circle of things, the love returns to the beginning
Hanyu Kusunoki was also very satisfied with her reaction. He smiled and opened the wooden box. "I heard from Kazuha about what Hattori-san did, so I specially asked someone to find it back. Now it has been returned to its original owner."
He held the wooden box and took a step forward.
Ikebo Jinghua stared blankly at the gold and silver jewelry placed in the wooden box, and her expression suddenly became dazed.
She thought that the dowry that had been passed down in her family for many generations would be cut off with her, and the reason was because of her son.
At that time, after discovering that something was missing, the first person that came to her mind was Hattori Heiji, because the password of the safe was her son's birthday.
She didn’t change the password the last time she lost money because she believed her son would change and realize his mistake, but the outcome completely disappointed her.
The subsequent developments made Ikebami Jinghua even more disappointed.
After learning from Hattori Heiji that the items had been pawned, she immediately asked Hattori Heizo to help get them back. However, Hattori Heizo thought that since his son had already sold it, he could just buy a new one and there was no need to go through all the trouble to get it back.
The two had a big argument over this issue, and neither of them was willing to give in.
The ending was that Hattori Heizo never returned home from that day on, leaving Ikenami Shizuka to face it all alone.
She had already given up hope, but unexpectedly, fate took an unexpected turn.
Ikebo Jinghua felt that the scene in front of her eyes began to become blurry. She lowered her head in panic, trying to hide her slightly trembling voice: "Xiao Nan, thank you, thank you so much."
This was the first time she lost her composure in front of her apprentice.
Her usual elegance and reserve completely disappeared at this moment.
"Master, don't say that. This is what I should do."
Hanyu Nan shook his head gently, slowly bent down, gently took Ikenami Shizuka's delicate hand, put the wooden box in her hand, and said with concern in his eyes, "I think these things should be very important to you."
"Very important! The things inside are very important to me!"
Ikenami Shizuka held the wooden box tightly with both hands, her fingers turning slightly white from the force. She tried desperately to control her emotions and tried not to let the tears flow out.
The feeling of losing and regaining is like suddenly welcoming the warm sunshine in the cold winter, which is something that ordinary people cannot truly feel.
Seeing this, Hanyu Kusunoki couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief, with a relieved smile on his face: "Phew, that's good! As long as I can help Master, everything is worth it."
After a pause, he added, "It was a close call. The pawnshop owner who didn't know the value of the gold and silver almost melted it down."
(A pawnshop owner who knows what’s good:?)
When Ikebo Jinghua heard this, she couldn't help but look up with lingering fear, her eyes full of gratitude: "Luckily I have you, Xiaonan."
"Hey, no, no, this is all my job as a disciple."
Hanyu Nan raised his mouth slightly, raised his hand, glanced at the watch on his wrist, and then said softly: "Master, it's getting late, it's almost time for me to leave."
After saying that, he suddenly stretched out his hand without warning, and quickly took out an extremely exquisitely crafted crystal gold-gilt silver hairpin from the box in Ikebo Jinghua's hand.
Then, in front of Ikenami Shizuka's confused and puzzled gaze, he neatly split it into two.
He took half of it in his own hand and handed the other half to Ikebo Jinghua, saying in a light tone with some reluctance: "Master, this half is for you, and I will take the other half as my parting gift."
Hanyu Nan smiled particularly brightly, not giving Ikenami Shizuka any chance to refuse. He stuffed the half hairpin into her fair and tender palm without saying anything, then turned around and ran into the station.
"Master, see you next time!"
Ikenami Shizuka quietly looked at Hanyu Kusunoki's gradually receding figure until the figure became smaller and smaller in her sight.
She tightly grasped the half crystal gold-gilt silver hairpin in her hand, feeling the slight coolness and residual warmth coming from it. She slightly opened her red lips as if she wanted to say something, but ultimately stopped herself.
My heart is still in chaos after all.
The originally calm lake of heart was rippling because of the stupid disciple.
The friendship between master and apprentice sublimated quietly without anyone noticing.
……
On the train.
"When things come full circle, the feelings return to where they were before."
Hanyu Nan sat in a quiet private room, leisurely swaying the half-crystal gold-gilt silver hairpin in her hand, with a faint smile unconsciously on the corner of her mouth.
The hairpin evolved from the hairpin. It is an exquisite jewelry made by cleverly combining two hairpins.
But it is not just a simple piece of jewelry. Sometimes, a hairpin is also a token of deep affection.
In ancient times, there was a custom between lovers:
A woman would split the hairpin on her head into two, giving one half to her beloved and keeping the other half for herself, waiting to put the two together when they are reunited one day, to show that: things have come full circle and love has returned to the way it was before.
Hanyu Nan stared at the half crystal gold-gilded silver hairpin in his hand and whispered softly: "Master, Master, what will you choose next?"
After saying this, he put away the half crystal gold-gilt silver hairpin, then stretched his body comfortably, yawned loudly, and leaned lazily against the back of the chair.
To be honest, if he wanted to successfully conquer this beautiful woman with a happy and harmonious family, it would be a rather difficult thing if he didn't use any tricks and just let nature take its course.
But there is someone who is actively giving assists!
Hattori Heiji, this silly boy, is receiving assists one after another. Judging from his attitude, he will never give up until he gets his mother out.
This is so embarrassing, but it actually saved him a lot of trouble.
In return, Hanyu Kusunoki decided to transfer Hattori Heiji to the same team as Conan, and would ignore him unless he was provoked.
After all, he will soon be another cheap son.
These two big steamed eggs are really good friends. They even make things together when they are sons.
……
A Li's house.
Hattori Heiji, who had no idea that he was about to have a new father, was testing the new props made by Dr. Agasa with Conan.
These days, he has been helpless in Mika and has been living in Dr. Agasa's house. Anyway, after paying back the 20 billion yen to Hanyu Kusunoki last time, he still has a considerable amount of money left.
As a young man with little experience in the world, encountering such a huge amount of money for the first time, as expected, Hattori Heiji soon became so engrossed in the fun that he forgot everything else and didn't want to leave.
I have bought several signed versions of my favorite baseball caps.
The main thing is that Hattori Heizo called him and told him that his student status would be transferred to Toudou in a while, and then he would be able to go to school here directly.
This time, Hattori Heiji was overjoyed. Not only could he avoid his furious mother, but he could also solve the case with his good friend. Where could he find such a good thing?
Now, whenever Conan encounters a case, he will call Hattori Heiji as soon as possible, and then the two great detectives will work together, and their efficiency in solving the case is simply too high.
However, for some reason, there seems to be a trend of solving more and more cases.
"Doctor, does your bento fax machine seem completely useless?"
Hattori Heiji crossed his legs and looked casually at the lunch box that Conan was struggling to fiddle with in front of him, and couldn't help but complain.
"Haha, really? I think it's pretty good!"
Dr. Agasa scratched his bald forehead awkwardly, still with a smile on his face.
Conan lowered his head and pressed the sour plum on the rice. A fax machine popped out from the lunch box. He stared at it for a long time but couldn't figure out what it was used for.
"I think it's really good for eating." Hattori Heiji said as he reached out and took a fried shrimp from it and put it in his mouth.
As soon as he took a bite, he suddenly felt his body get cold and he shivered involuntarily.
"Well, what's wrong? Do you have a cold?"
Conan looked up and asked with concern.
Hattori Heiji frowned and shook his head: "I don't know, I just felt a chill all of a sudden, weird."
Just then, the cell phone rang suddenly.
Seeing the familiar caller ID above, Hattori Heiji immediately hung up the call without thinking.
Dr. Agasa, who happened to notice this scene, asked in a nice way, "Heiji, don't hang up on your mother all the time. Why don't you have a good talk and talk it out honestly?"
"Oh, Dr. Agasa, you don't understand!"
Hattori Heiji waved his hands impatiently and blacklisted his mother's phone number.
"My mom is just this stubborn. It's impossible to communicate with her now. She will come to her senses after a while."
