Chapter 440 What do growing children need?
Mrs. Yoshida is a woman with a very dignified and virtuous temperament. Judging from her appearance alone, she is like an enlarged version of Ayumi, with the same delicate face and gentle eyes.
On weekdays, she has very limited time to teach her daughter because she has to bear the responsibility of raising the child alone and work hard to make a living.
This results in Ayumi having a wilder personality.
But compared to Conan, they are already good kids.
Watching Hanyu Kusunoki and the other two preparing to leave, Mrs. Yoshida held Ayumi's hand and walked her all the way to the elevator.
Then she bowed deeply again, and her long, soft hair fell down and brushed against her shoulders.
"Mr. Hanyu, no matter what, you are the lifesaver of my mother and me. From now on, as long as you need me, I will do my best and do my best."
Her tone was extremely serious, her daughter was her whole life.
If something happened to Ayumi, she wouldn't know how to continue living.
"Ma'am, you are so kind. This is what I should do."
Hanyu Kusunoki took a step forward, supported Mrs. Yoshida with both hands, then stretched out his hand habitually and gently helped her to tuck the messy hair around her cheeks behind her head.
Only after I finished doing it did I realize that there was something wrong with this action.
His hand paused in the air for a moment, then quickly retracted and landed on little Ayumi's head. He rubbed it a few times and said with a smile, "Ayumi is so cute, how could I let her get hurt?"
Mrs. Yoshida's cheeks flushed slightly, but then returned to normal and said gratefully, "Mr. Hanyu, you are such a good person."
"Hanyu-nii is the best!"
Ayumi, who didn't understand what was going on, blinked her big watery eyes, looked at Hanyu Kusunoki with an innocent face, smiled and stood on tiptoe, trying to push her little head into Hanyu Kusunoki's palm.
Hanyu Kusunoki couldn't help but chuckle, squatted down, and gently reminded: "Ayumi, you must be obedient at home, and you must listen to your mother."
"I will, Hanyu-nii-nii."
Ayumi nodded obediently, her voice clear and pleasant.
"Well, you're so good!"
Hanyu Kusunoki stroked Ayumi's hair with satisfaction.
Just then, the elevator arrived.
He stood up, smiled at Mrs. Yoshida, then turned and walked into the elevator with Ai and Bayonetta.
Ayumi continued to wave her hands vigorously, shouting, "Hanyu-nii, Ai-chan, and niece, goodbye!"
Not until the elevator door was completely closed and the small gap disappeared did she slowly lower her arms and place her small hands at her sides.
But her eyes remained in the direction of the elevator, as if she wanted to see the person inside through the closed door.
Seeing her daughter's reluctant look, Mrs. Yoshida squatted down, looked at Ayumi at eye level, and asked softly, "Ayumi, seeing you like this, do you really like Hanyu brother?"
"I like him. Brother Hanyu is very, very gentle, and he saved me."
Ayumi nodded vigorously and said with an extremely serious face, "When I grow up, I must marry Brother Hanyu!"
"is it?"
Mrs. Yoshida was stunned at first, then she couldn't help laughing and reached out to touch Ayumi's hair, "Silly child, you are still so young now, you will understand a lot of things when you grow up."
Ayumi ignored her mother's words, pouted her lips stubbornly, crossed her arms over her chest, and said stubbornly: "I don't care, I just want to marry Hanyu-nii!"
He looks like a little warrior who is determined to defend his love.
"Okay, okay, then we'll talk about it when you grow up."
Mrs. Yoshida shook her head helplessly, her eyes full of pampering, then took Ayumi's hand and went back home together.
At this time, the police had not yet evacuated the house, and Officer Megure was leading his officers to clean up the scene in an orderly manner.
A group of policemen cleaned the living room more carefully and meticulously than they would their own homes. They were fully focused to ensure that not even the slightest trace of blood remained.
The items that were messed up by the man in the helmet were also put back in their places by the police.
For some items that were damaged and could no longer be used, Officer Megure arranged for his officers to buy new ones and put them in place. He even contacted the manufacturer of the gate to send new ones for replacement.
Mrs. Yoshida was surprised by the police's attitude and said softly, "Officer Megure, there's no need to go through so much trouble..."
"Oh, ma'am, don't say that!"
Officer Megure interrupted her immediately, adjusted his hat, and said righteously: "Serving the people is what we police officers should do. Our duty is to protect the lives and property of the people and enable them to live and work in peace."
He did not forget to add, "Besides, thanks to Master Hanyu's help in catching the criminal, more serious consequences were avoided and no disaster occurred. What we are doing now are just some insignificant little things."
After saying that, Inspector Megure ran back to the crowd and began to give orders.
Mrs. Yoshida stood quietly aside, looking at the busy policemen in the room, pursed her thin lips slightly, and raised her hand to stroke the hair between her ears.
She knew very well that the police treated her so kindly and politely not just because she was a single mother.
Just like last time, the hospital had prepared an independent ward for Ayumi who only had minor scratches, not because of her.
There was a young man in both incidents.
Looking at Ayumi who was cheering and moving among the police, Mrs. Yoshida's eyes gradually softened.
She knew very well that during the child's growth period, someone needed to take on the role of a father and give the child enough care and guidance. Only in this way could her baby daughter Ayumi grow up smoothly and healthily.
