Conan: The Magician of the End of the Century

Chapter 266 Postcards

Seeing the boss's daughters helping him clean the living room, Dr. Ali smiled awkwardly and explained: "I'm so sorry, the house is so messy and there's no convenient place for you to sit, and I have to trouble Xiao Ai and Xiao Saki. Come and help me clean, I'll clean up the sofa right away. Just wait for me."

"It's okay, Dr. Agasa, you usually take such good care of them. They should help you clean the room." Ishino responded with a nonchalant smile, "Since the children are still looking for things and cleaning, you Why don't you take us to visit the laboratory? Naiya has been clamoring to come and have a look. Despite his young age, he is very interested in scientific experiments."

Hearing that the little boy in front of him was interested in scientific experiments, Dr. Ali immediately became energetic, smiled and nodded: "I didn't expect Naiya to love science so much at such a young age, and his future will be limitless. It happens to be my laboratory." There are some experimental props that were made for children before, so I will take you over to have a look."

With that said, Dr. A Li led the two of them along the stairs to his personal laboratory located underground in the mansion, intending to demonstrate his interesting invention in front of the children.

"Hey, Kosaki, is the little boy who is following Uncle Ishino Noa?" Looking at the back of Dr. Agasa and the two of them leaving, Ayumi moved to Kosaki and asked curiously.

"That's right, he is our little brother Naia. Isn't he cute?" When his friends asked about their new group favorite Naia, the eldest sister Xiaosaki immediately introduced him with a smile.

"It's indeed very cute. Those big eyes look very smart with their twinkling eyes." Ayumi nodded in agreement and said with some envy, "That's great. I also want to have such a cute little brother."

"That's right, that's right. I really envy those of you who have brothers and sisters in your family. If I could have a younger brother or younger sister, I would definitely take him to eat eel rice all over the world!" Yuantai, who was on the side, also came over. echoed.

"Although I still have an older sister at home, I have always wanted a younger brother or sister, so that my older sister will not always be the boss of me." Finally, Mitsuhiko also expressed his thoughts.

"I say you guys, if you want younger brothers and sisters so much, why not wait until you get home and discuss it with your parents, maybe they will agree." Conan on the side couldn't help feeling speechless after hearing the words of the three little ones, and couldn't help but say He said, "But now you'd better find the doctor's invitation as soon as possible, otherwise Uncle Ishino and Naia won't have anywhere to sit when they return to the living room."

Hearing Conan's complaint, Yuanta complained unconvincedly: "Conan, you still have the nerve to accuse us. We were the ones who were looking for you from just now. Aren't you just watching from the side?"

"My job is to be a woodcutter who sharpens his knife and chops firewood. He first observes the situation in the living room and finds the most likely place before starting to search." Hearing this, Conan smiled confidently and explained, "If I go there like a headless fly like you guys, Look for it, I’m afraid you may not be able to find it even if it’s dark.”

After hearing Conan's defense, Ayumi didn't care much about Conan's teasing, but asked with some expectation: "So Conan, do you already know where Dr. Agasa will put the invitation?"

"If my guess is correct, Dr. Ali most likely threw something the size of an envelope in that place, and that's why he searched through the cabinets and drawers but couldn't find it." After speaking, Conan stretched out a finger. , pointing in a certain direction of the living room.

Following the direction Conan pointed, the three little ones quickly dug out a bunch of things that he had thrown there casually from behind the TV at the doctor's house, including New Year's cards, greeting letters, and driver's license replacement notices, all kinds of things. Documents vary.Considering that these things may contain Dr. A Li's personal privacy, he needs to see it in person before deciding how to deal with it, so the children decided to help clean up the living room together and wait until Dr. A Li comes back to check it in front of him. Specific content.

After the children had completely cleaned the living room, Dr. Ali happened to take Ishino and Naia back to the living room from the underground laboratory.

Looking at the brand-new living room in front of him, Dr. Ali thanked the children for their hard work and invited Ishino and his son to sit on the sofa. Then he sat down with the children and began to look through the pile of documents that he had forgotten for a long time. Find the invitation that urgently needs a reply today.

"Found it!" Looking at the invitation sifted from a pile of documents in her hand, Ayumi shouted excitedly in the direction of Dr. Ari, only to find that the other person was holding a postcard in a daze with a smile on his face. He couldn't help but asked curiously, "Doctor?"

"What, did you find something good?" Genta, who was sitting next to Dr. A Li, asked strangely when he saw the other person's fascinated look.

"Could it be a love letter, doctor?" Mitsuhiko on the side also cast curious eyes at the other party.

At this moment, Ishino, who was sitting opposite Dr. Agasa, after seeing the postcard in the other person's hand, finally remembered which episode the story was from, so he also sat up straight and looked at the other person, expecting to hear it from the doctor's mouth. My own romantic anecdotes.

Seeing that everyone was looking towards him, Dr. Ali blushed but could no longer hide it, so he simply slowly recounted the past events he recalled: "This is what I received from a friend a long time ago. The postcards must be 40 years old."

"40 years? So it should be when you were still in elementary school, right?" After hearing Dr. A Li's explanation, Xiao Ai immediately reacted.

"Yes, I remember it was the first day of school after the summer vacation. I was about to be late and took a shortcut, but by chance I met a lovely junior school girl who was complaining about a big dog in the yard of a house on the road. He screamed but didn’t dare to pass by there.”

"So I asked her to hide behind me and slowly pass through the door of the house. Afterwards, I asked the reason and found out that she had been bitten by her own dog when she was a child, and that's when she became afraid of animals."

"Eh...it's so pitiful that I can't get in touch with small animals because of this kind of thing..." After hearing this, Ayumi couldn't help but feel sorry for the little girl the doctor was talking about.

"Actually, I thought so too, so I took her to a friend's house who kept hamsters. Although she was still a little resistant and scared at first, she gradually got used to it after a while, and she completely got over it after two months. I have overcome my psychological shadow and become a person who loves small animals. Even the big dog from before can deal with it with a smile."
