Chapter 777: Detective Mao Lilan appears
"Oh, this can't happen!"
Xiaolan quickly ran over and took the blue cat out, along with a photo.
"Photos?"
Hanyu Kusunoki also walked over and took a look.
The photo showed Eri Kisaki and a middle-aged man.
“Who is this man in the photo with my mother?”
Xiaolan frowned, feeling uneasy.
"It could be the man who called just now." Hanyu Kusunoki pointed to the phone in the office. "The number on the back of the photo is the same as the number in the call log."
"Huh? Huh!" The girl was horrified, especially when thinking about the series of events that just happened. A thought suddenly flashed through her mind, "Could it be that my mother knew that the photo was hidden inside, so she didn't let me use this vase just now?"
Detective Mao Lilan is online.
Hanyu Kusunoki glanced at the blue cat who was pushing a paper ball to his feet and trying to get him to play with it, and smiled without saying anything.
Xiaolan has already started pouring out the contents of the vase.
She lifted the half-meter-high vase with one hand.
While pouring, she was still reasoning, "Look, this is full of garbage. She must have thought it through. If anyone asks, she will say that it is just used as a trash can..."
Before he could finish his words, a ring fell out and rolled on the ground for a few times before stopping.
"Wedding ring"
The girl exclaimed again.
The strange phone call, the mother who left in a hurry, the hidden photos, the lost wedding ring, all the clues were connected together, and Xiaolan suddenly had a bad premonition.
"Could it be that... Mom has someone she likes?"
Hanyu Kusunoki: “…”
The reasoning is completely wrong, but the result is correct.
He shook his head: "Maybe you're just overthinking it?"
"Absolutely not!" Since it concerns her dearest mother, Xiaolan's expression is extremely doubtful.
Although she hadn't seen her mother wear a ring for a long time, and she had long since agreed to let her mother pursue her own happiness, when it really happened before her eyes, Xiaolan found it a little difficult to accept.
Countless thoughts flashed through her mind in an instant. With a new family, would she never see her mother again?
The more the girl thought about it, the more panicked she became. In a short period of time, a long series of plots played out in her mind.
"Nan, let's chase them! We still have time!"
"Ok?"
"I want to see who the other person is! Can he be worthy of my mother?"
……
The door of the office was closed again and then opened again a few minutes later.
"Teacher, I'm back."
Kuriyama Midori pushed the door open and walked in.
She habitually glanced around the office, but what came into her eyes was an empty scene, which made Kisaki Eri's chief disciple fall into deep thought.
"The overturned vase, the scattered garbage, and the mysterious bouquet on the table..." Kuriyama Midori pinched her chin with a serious expression, "I'm afraid...something happened!"
"Meow~"
The blue cat Xiaonan pushed a paper ball past her feet.
"Haha!" Kuriyama Midori came back to her senses and smiled a little embarrassedly, "What on earth am I talking about? The teacher hasn't told me the password for my bank card yet, how could something go wrong?"
……
A pet cafe.
Xiaolan followed Lawyer Fei all the way here.
"Yes, that's the person!"
After locking onto her target, the girl decisively pulled Hanyu Kusunoki to find a seat in the store, then pricked up her ears, trying to catch the conversation not far away.
At this time, a girl holding a pet cat passed by. The middle-aged man sitting opposite to Kisaki Eri suddenly looked up, his face instantly filled with smiles, and he said in a slightly exaggerated tone: "Ah, Xiao Huihui, long time no see, you are still so pretty!"
"Piao, Piao Piao?" Xiaolan's expression froze.
The image of her father being attentive to beautiful women immediately emerged in her mind, and a bad premonition arose.
Then, several women holding their pets came up to the other party and started chatting with him enthusiastically.
Xiaolan watched this scene and her little fists gradually hardened.
"So...he's another playboy like dad!"
Hanyu Kusunoki almost choked on his coffee: "...Where did you hear that?"
"Isn't it obvious?" Xiaolan lowered her voice, "Look at that man's hands, they are all wounds, and he is so slick. My father is like this, maybe my mother's taste is just that bad!"
Hanyu Kusunoki: “…”
With such an imaginative ability, she is worthy of being the daughter of a famous detective.
But are you sure you won’t be beaten up by Lawyer Fei if you say that?
"No, I want to ask my mother in person!" Xiaolan finally couldn't sit still anymore. She felt that she could not let things go on like this. She had to find out what the relationship between her mother and this man was.
However, as soon as she tiptoed behind Kisaki Eri, she saw her mother's body trembling slightly and a crystal tear sliding down the corner of her eye.
"Mom...she's shaking? Why is she crying?"
Xiaolan couldn't help but murmur softly, her eyes full of heartache and confusion.
In her impression, her mother was a strong person who seldom shed tears, but... why? Why did she cry in front of this man? Why did she shed tears for him!
The more Xiaolan thought about it, the angrier she became, and her anger began to accumulate rapidly.
Hanyu Kusunoki silently prepared himself to take action at any time.
It's not about helping, it's about worrying that something might happen to the other person.
"I...what should I do?"
Kisaki Eri said this with a sad face.
The middle-aged man opposite comforted him: "Don't worry, I think it must be a dream."
"Huh?!" When Xiaolan heard this, her pupils widened instantly, and the confusion and anger in her heart became even greater.
All kinds of ridiculous plots immediately emerged in her mind. "What's going on? Did he seduce my mother first, make her fall in love with him, and then use the excuse of a dream to get rid of her?"
The more Xiaolan thought about it, the more she felt that her guess was correct, and she could no longer suppress the anger in her heart.
"I can't forgive this man! I absolutely!"
The rage bar is full
The girl's eyes became extremely determined, and she made a karate starting gesture without hesitation, ready to teach this "scumbag" a lesson.
The movement behind caused both Kisaragi and the veterinarian to turn their heads at the same time.
But, it's too late.
"Xiao-Lan?!"
"Unforgivable!"
A flying kick has passed.
When the sword was about to hit the middle-aged man, Hanyu Kusunoki stepped forward to block it. The force was so great that he almost took a step back.
This is a violent girl who can blow up a telephone pole with one kick.
The middle-aged man was still looking at this sudden scene in confusion, completely unaware that he had just walked through the gates of hell and saved his life.
"Nan?" Xiaolan looked at Hanyu Nan who was blocking her in confusion.
Hanyu Kusunoki shrugged and looked at Kisaki Eri.
At this time, Fei Yingli also came back to her senses and frowned, "Xiaolan, why are you here?"
"Mom!" Xiaolan asked back, "Who is this man?"
The middle-aged man looked confused: "I am..."
"I won't allow it!" Xiaolan interrupted him, her eyes red, "Mom, how could you...how could you find a man like this...a man who is not even one ten-thousandth as good as Nan!"
Hibiki Eri: “???”
Middle-aged man: "???"
Hanyu Nan silently held his forehead.
The middle-aged man was already terrified: "I, I'm just a veterinarian..."
Finally, Hibiki came to her senses and grabbed her daughter in shame and anger: "Lan! This is the veterinarian who treated Nan!"
"Ah?" Xiaolan was stunned. "To treat Xiaonan?"
Only then did she notice the pet medicine bag and stethoscope on the table.
Most afraid of the air suddenly quiet.
