Ke Xue: This police officer is too martial

Chapter 197 The Weight of Forty Years
In the ginkgo grove.

Countless ginkgo leaves were blown off the branches by the gentle breeze, dyeing almost the entire space golden.

Dr. Agasa held the gifts and flowers in one hand and carefully adjusted the collar of his white suit with the other.

The next second, Dr. Agasa looked at Makino uneasily, frowned and said, "Makino, am I dressed too exaggeratedly? And this gift and flowers, aren't they a bit too abrupt?"

Before Dr. Agasa could finish, Makino interrupted and said, "Don't be so nervous, Dr. Agasa. You have asked these questions countless times on the way here, right~"

"That's right, but..." Dr. Agasa seemed to be hesitant to speak.

Makino smiled and shook his head.

He could naturally understand Dr. Agasa's mood at this moment.

It has been forty years since Dr. Agasa separated from this "friend".

Forty years.

Words like "separation" and "parting" have long lost any meaning in the face of such a time span.

In fact, let alone forty years.

Even a short period of three or four years is enough to make people forget the friendship and promises they once made.

Rather than saying that Dr. Agasa was nervous because he was about to meet his "first love", it would be more accurate to say that he was nervous because he was afraid of not being able to meet his "first love".

After such a long time, he had no idea whether the other party still remembered the agreement.

Moreover, from the very beginning, the person who didn't show up for the appointment was Dr. Agasa himself...

Sonoko obviously realized this.

Along the way, both Dr. Agasa and Sonoko deliberately avoided topics related to "what if the other party doesn't come."

Both Dr. Agasa and Sonoko seemed to sincerely hope...or expect that the other party would keep the appointment.

This can be seen from Yuanzi's expression.

At this moment, Sonoko's face was full of nervousness and anticipation, and her expression was obviously nothing like the "teasing and mocking" she showed when she just learned about Dr. Agasa's first love experience.

The next second, Makino pointed in a direction and winked at Dr. Agasa: "Doctor, do you see the white car over there? Maybe that car is 'her' car~"

"White car? Where is it?!" Dr. Agasa hurriedly looked in the direction Makino pointed.

Yuanzi also narrowed his eyes and looked carefully into the distance.

Not long after, Dr. Agasa and Sonoko saw the white car that Makino mentioned.

Although it was not certain that the owner of the car was "Ms. Kinoshita", there was obvious surprise in the eyes of Dr. Agasa and Sonoko.

The next second, Dr. Agasa looked up at the ginkgo leaves flying in the sky, plucked up the courage to step into the woods and walked towards the white car.

Seeing that Dr. Agasa was getting farther and farther away, Sonoko immediately turned to look at Makino: "Brother Ryuichi, when are we going to catch up? I also want to see Ms. Kinoshita!"

Makino glanced at the anxious Yuanzi and chuckled, "Don't worry, as long as she is here, we will see her sooner or later~"

At this point, Makino glanced behind him and continued, "Rather than that, how about we do Dr. Agasa one last favor?"

"What help?" Yuanzi followed Makino's gaze and turned to look behind him.

At this moment, a blond foreign man wearing sunglasses was walking towards this side carrying two convenience store bags.

……

Not long after, Dr. Agasa, dressed in white, walked nervously to the white car.

Seeing that there was no one in the car, a look of disappointment flashed across Dr. Agasa's eyes.

However, when he noticed the unfinished coffee in the car, he suddenly thought of something and turned around to look around.

In just a moment, Dr. Agasa discovered that there seemed to be a woman wearing a hat standing under a ginkgo tree not far away.

The woman leaned against the ginkgo tree trunk, staring quietly ahead.

Although Dr. Agasa did not see the woman's face clearly due to the angle, for some reason, his legs were moving forward slowly and uncontrollably.

After a few seconds, he finally moved to the tree trunk where the woman was standing.

At this moment, the woman leaning against the tree trunk also heard the movement behind her. She turned her head and said, "Billy, you can eat first..."

Before she could finish her words, the woman suddenly realized that the person standing behind her was not her friend, but a strange yet familiar face.

The next moment, the woman's face was suddenly filled with joy: "A-Agasa?!"

Hearing the woman blurt out his name, Dr. Agasa realized something and opened his mouth slowly in disbelief: "Fusae..."

After calling each other's names, the two stopped talking and just looked at each other quietly with smiles on their faces.

After a long time, Dr. Agasa touched the back of his head embarrassedly and said, "Fusae, you, you are still so beautiful..."

As if she noticed Dr. Agasa's nervousness, Fusahei couldn't help but cover her mouth and laugh: "Even after so many years, you haven't changed at all, Agasa~"

After laughing, Fushahui shook her head gently, with a hint of mist in her eyes: "Agasa, I didn't expect you still remembered our agreement..."

After a moment of silence, Dr. Agasa lowered his head and said, "I'm sorry, I've always remembered it. It's just..."

Under Fusae's puzzled gaze, Dr. Agasa told her the whole story.

After saying this, Dr. Agasa lowered his head again and bowed sincerely to Fusae to apologize.

If he hadn't been unable to find this "place of memories", this promise would have been fulfilled long ago, and the other party wouldn't have had to wait for him for so many years in vain.

Although he knew that telling the truth would probably result in the other party's disgusted rebuke, he still didn't want to deceive the other party.

To Dr. Agasa's surprise, after a long time, not only did he not hear any "reprimand", but he also heard Fusae's gentle laughter.

"Okay, Agasa, please raise your head. I'm already very happy that you remember the agreement we made and come to keep it." Fusae chuckled and walked forward to support Dr. Agasa's upper body.

"But, but..." Dr. Agasa seemed to want to say something, but when he saw Fusae's smile, he didn't know how to start for a moment.

The next moment, seeing that Dr. Agasa was still a little nervous, Fusai smiled and pointed at the flowers in Dr. Agasa's hand, and chuckled, "Is this for me?"

After a moment of hesitation, Dr. Agasa nodded quickly, then handed the flowers and the small gift box in his hand to Fusae: "Yes, that's right! And this gift is also..."

Fusae sniffed the flowers lightly, then looked at Dr. Agasa tenderly: "Thank you, I like it very much~"

At this time, Dr. Agasa smiled foolishly and touched the back of his head. Seeing that Dr. Agasa had finally returned to normal, Fusae also started talking about her past experiences.

At the same time, a deep look of memories appeared in the eyes of both of them.

More than ten minutes later, Fusae suddenly remembered something and said, "By the way, Agasa, where is the friend who helped you solve the puzzle? Didn't you come here together?"

"They should still be waiting for me over there, right...?" Dr. Agasa turned his head and looked in the direction he had just come from.

After seeing Dr. Agasa's expression, Fusae immediately remembered something and looked down at the time: "My friend Billy went to a nearby convenience store to buy a bento not long ago, and he should be back soon..."

Before Fusae finished her words, Dr. Agasa saw Makino and his companions walking towards them and asked, "Is that blond man wearing sunglasses the friend you mentioned?"

Hearing this, Fusae looked in the direction Professor Agasa was looking.

At this moment, his friend was walking towards them "accompanied" by two strange men and women.

Not long after, Makino and the other two walked up to Professor Agasa and his companions.

Dr. Agasa looked at Makino in confusion and frowned, "Makino, why are you with this man?"

Before Dr. Agasa could finish his question, Sonoko smiled and said, "Of course, it's to avoid disturbing your 'good thing'! Don't worry, Dr., we have already asked for you. This foreigner is not that aunt's..."

As soon as Sonoko said this, she saw the blonde woman behind Dr. Agasa and was stunned.

Sonoko: “!!!”

Wait a moment? !

This incredibly beautiful auntie in front of me is Dr. Agasa's first love? !

After seeing Sonoko's expression, a smile appeared on Makino's lips.

It’s no wonder that Sonoko was so surprised. Compared with Professor Agasa, the woman in front of her was so young and beautiful that it was “scary”. She didn’t look like someone who was almost 50 years old at all.

Makino looked at Dr. Agasa with a smile: "Doctor, can you introduce him to us?"

Without waiting for Dr. Agasa to introduce herself, Fusae, who had learned the details from her friend, took the initiative to introduce herself: "My name is 'Fusae Campbell Kinoshita'. You two should be the friends that Agasa mentioned! You can call me Fusae or Kinoshita~"

Hearing this, Makino smiled and nodded: "Hello, my name is Makino Ryuichi, I'm Dr. Agasa's neighbor. The one next to you is my sister, Suzuki Sonoko."

Sonoko on the side nodded blankly and greeted Fusae.

After greeting Makino and the other two, Fusae immediately turned to Dr. Agasa and introduced the blond man next to her: "This is Billy, the husband of a friend of mine. My friend was worried about me coming here alone to keep the appointment, so he specially asked him to help."

Although he was still a little confused, Dr. Agasa still heard the "hidden meaning" in Fusae's words.

It turns out that this is what Sonoko didn’t finish saying before, which means... this person is not Fusae’s husband!

After realizing this, Dr. Agasa felt inexplicably relieved.

At this moment, Sonoko seemed to come back to her senses from Fusae's "young appearance", but her frown never relaxed.

The next moment, Yuanzi quietly leaned close to Makino's ear and whispered, "Brother Long Yi, I don't know why, but I always feel that this aunt's name sounds particularly familiar!"

Makino recalled for a moment and nodded, "Of course you are familiar with it. Didn't you talk about this 'brand' with Ayako and Xiaolan the last time you went to the amusement park?"

Yuanzi scratched her forehead with one finger and fell into deep thought: "Brand? I talked about it with my sisters..."

A few seconds later, Sonoko suddenly widened her eyes and looked at Fusae in front of her in astonishment: "I remember now! Are you the president of 'Fusae Brand'?!"

Hearing this, Fusae chuckled and nodded, subconsciously glancing at Dr. Agasa beside her.

Dr. Agasa looked at Sonoko in confusion and frowned, "Sonoko, what did you say? The president of what brand?"

After seeing Dr. Agasa's reaction, Fusae chuckled and shook her head.

No wonder he hasn't contacted me yet...

After seeing the reactions of Professor Agasa and Fusae, Sonoko looked at the flying ginkgo leaves in front of her, as if she understood something, and looked at Fusae in shock: "Could it be that... the reason why the brand's trademark is a ginkgo leaf is because of the agreement between the two of you?!"

Hearing this, Fushahui was stunned for a moment, and her face suddenly turned a little red.

Dr. Agasa on the side still didn't react, and looked at Makino and Sonoko with a puzzled expression again.

It was not until after listening to Sonoko's excited explanation that Dr. Agasa finally understood something and looked at Fusae beside him in disbelief.

Just as Professor Agasa looked at Fusae, Fusae also looked at him.

After their eyes met in the air, they both lowered their heads at the same time, with shy expressions.

Seeing the looks of the two, Makino and Sonoko also showed a strange smile at the corners of their mouths.

At the same time, Makino chuckled and said, "It can't be helped. The Doctor has never been interested in fashion brands. Otherwise, maybe the two of you could have met earlier. The Doctor wouldn't have to look for you for so many years~"

Upon hearing this, the redness on Professor Agasa and Fusae's faces became noticeably deeper.

……

Half an hour later, Makino personally drove Professor Agasa and Fusae to the Beika Hotel.

After learning that Makino was a police officer from the Metropolitan Police Department, Fusae's friend Billy, who served as a bodyguard and driver, also let down his guard.

After listening to Makino's "suggestion", Billy drove away temporarily.

Soon after, after seeing the Beika Hotel outside the car window, Dr. Agasa looked stiffly at Makino in front of him: "Makino, aren't you going to send us back?"

Makino chuckled and shook his head: "Send it back? You two finally meet each other, I believe you have a lot to say. Don't worry, I have already booked the room in advance. Besides, Aunt Fushahui didn't even have a good lunch because she was waiting for you~"

Hearing this, Dr. Agasa nodded blankly and smiled embarrassedly.

Fusae on the side smiled and glanced at Professor Agasa beside her, then smiled and thanked Makino and Sonoko.

It was not until Professor Agasa and Fusae entered the hotel that Sonoko turned to look at Makino: "Brother Ryuichi, do you think Professor Agasa and the others can..."

"We have done our best. What comes next is not something we can worry about. However... since they can abide by this long 'promise', I think they will definitely be very happy~"

"Really? Since you said so, Brother Long Yi, then it must be correct!"

"Okay, your sister is almost done with get out of class, let's go pick her up first~"

"Ah! I almost forgot about my sister!"

"..."
