MTL - Officer Matsuda Wants To Save Himself-Chapter 160
Everyone is already in the car, and it is impossible to go back as soon as possible. It doesn't necessarily have to happen - right?
With this kind of good expectation to comfort himself, Hagihara Kenji greeted several people naturally: "Yeah, Mr. Mori, what a coincidence."
Mouri Kogoro looked in the direction of the voice, "Ah, it's the two of you."
The other three greeted politely: "Good afternoon, Officer Hagihara and Officer Matsuda."
Mao Lilan asked curiously, "The two police officers are...?"
At this time, it was all the social work that Hagihara Kenji took the initiative to take on: "I just took a vacation with Xiaojinpei and plan to go to the hot spring~"
Mao Lilan opened his eyes slightly and said in surprise, "What a coincidence! So do we!"
Jiang Gu Ling explained why he came with him: "Because Miss Lan got four free experience coupons, and there is still one place left, she invited me to come with me. I am very grateful for that."
Mao Lilan waved his hand embarrassedly: "No, we are usually taken care of by you, Mr. Anshi!"
Although Jiang Gu Ling didn’t approach him as a disciple this time, he was the waiter downstairs, and he always helped a little either intentionally or unintentionally. Mao Lilan has always kept these help in mind, and finally had a chance to thank him. It happened that Sonoko had no time to date with her boyfriend, so she immediately tried to invite the other party on the grounds of the extra quota, and then got the agreement.
It was not long before the Metropolitan Police Department got off work in the afternoon. After all, they had calculated that they only planned to play for two days. If the evening passed, they could just catch up, and they still had time to play and rest for the next two days.
Waiting for the hot spring at night can also relieve the fatigue of work and travel, which can be said to be very cost-effective.
Waiting on the train was rather boring, and Hagihara Kenji was the most disgusted of such time being wasted. It's just that he originally thought that he would only be with Matsuda Jinping, so he didn't bring any multiplayer game props, so he asked the other group: "It's still a while before getting off the bus, do you bring poker or something? "
Maurilan was always prepared at times like this. Realizing what Kenji Hagihara meant, he smiled and took out some games to pass the time on the road, as well as prepared snacks: "Let's play together, Officer Hagiwara and Officer Matsuda."
And the game time always passes the fastest, and before you know it, the train has arrived at the station.
Before getting up and getting off the bus, Matsuda Jinhei picked up Edogawa Conan's luggage, while Hagihara Kenji naturally helped Mourilan carry the bulky suitcase, and said with a smile: "The person who got off the bus. More, Miss Lan should take Conan's hand and go out, so it's not easy to get lost."
Mao Lilan, who was still thinking of taking back the luggage and carrying it by himself, was indeed attracted by this sentence, and took Edogawa Conan's hand: "Conan, let's go together."
Edogawa Conan responded sweetly: "Okay, Sister Xiaolan!"
The movements of the two people were too smooth, so that Ling Gu, who had already stretched out his hand, retracted his hand and smiled with his lips hooked.
This hot spring hotel tends to be traditional, the surrounding environment is very good, and there are many vegetation. It is the degree to which mosquitoes will definitely bite when going out in summer.
When he arrived at the hot spring shop, Hagihara Kenji put down his luggage and handed it over to Maurilan. During the process of Maurilan thanking him, the owner of the hot spring shop in a yukata came to greet him with a smile.
So the luggage hadn't stayed with Mao Lilan for half a minute, and was carried to the room by the waiter of the hot spring shop.
Rarely don't have to worry about other things, and don't have to look at the road to ask for directions. The annoying speech that Dad sometimes makes will be solved by Hagihara Kenji's high emotional intelligence. Ma Lilan, who can stay without a brain just by following two police officers in almost the whole process , covered his heart, and muttered, "...It seems, suddenly, I can understand Sonoko's usual feelings."
Even if she likes Shinichi, under such care, it's hard not to be moved for a few seconds.
Jiang Gu Ling seemed to have noticed Mao Lilan's small movements and asked with a smile, "What are you thinking, Miss Xiaolan."
"I'm thinking about that big idiot Xinyi... No! No! Wait!" Mao Lilan suddenly blushed, not knowing where to put his hands.
Edogawa Conan, who had been following Maorilan, was also stunned.
Jiang Gu Ling rolled her eyes and helped Ma Lilan to change the topic that made her shy: "Let's go to register, Mr. Maori and the others have passed."
"Okay, okay! Mr. Anshi!" Mao Lilan responded immediately.
Matsuda Jinpei and Hagihara Kenji booked a two-person suite, and the layout of the room was a little quiet and Zen.
Hagihara Kenji looked at Matsuda Jinping who was yawning and said helplessly: "Don't fall asleep now, change clothes and go soak for a while?"
Matsuda Jinhei responded lazily and took the yukata Hagihara Kenji handed him.
When the two of them changed their clothes, they just happened to meet Jiang Gu Ling, who had also packed up his luggage and walked out.
The three exchanged glances, and after confirming that there was no one around, Jiang Gu Lingcai said: "Condense your expressions, this time I was really just invited, so I came here."
Hagihara Kenji said: "No, it's because I know, so I pity your subordinates even more."
Matsuda Jinping gave a low laugh: "Poor Mr. Kazama, his boss is on vacation and soaking in the hot spring, and he is conscientiously staring at the prisoner and dare not leave at will."
Jiang Gu retorted subconsciously: "It's the wind!"
Matsuda Zhen waved his hand flatly: "It's all the same, no matter who it is, it's just pitiful."
Hagihara Kenji: "...I think it's even more pitiful to remember the name wrong."
Jiang Gu Ling agreed: "You have known him for almost four years, right?"
Hagihara Kenji: "Although it's only one-sided."
Matsuda Jinping raised his eyes and glanced at the two of them, but unfortunately he didn't say anything. Mouri Kogoro, who was quiet, walked out: "Huh? What are you three doing here?"
Rei Furutani smiled with a face-changing speed that Matsuda Jinping had to admire: "We are waiting for you to soak in the hot spring together."
Mouri Kogoro believed it, and suddenly asked, touching his chin, "Speaking of which, is there a mixed bath here?"
"I'm really sorry! There are separate hot spring pools for men and women here!" Maurilan, who put on a yukata, took Edogawa Conan and said angrily to Kogoro Mori: "I just left for a while, Dad, you are like this again. !"
Mouri Kogoro: "What do children know! Hot springs are obviously only mixed baths—"
"Cough cough!" Hagihara Kenji put his fist to his mouth: "Everyone, don't crowd here, it will get in the way."
Before Mouri Kogoro was dissatisfied, Hagihara Kenji smiled again: "Speaking of Mr. Mouri, I have never had the opportunity to talk to you like this before. When we were at the police academy, we often heard the instructor mention you."
Maori Xiaogoro was immediately attracted and took his attention: "Haha, I didn't even ask, who was your kid's instructor back then? Maybe I know him!"
"It's Instructor Onizuka." Hagihara Kenji replied with a smile.
Taking advantage of this topic, Hagihara Kenji and Mouri Kogoro walked in the forefront, and Furuya Rei naturally followed.
Matsuda Jinping watched this scene and said to Mao Lilan: "Hagi is here, don't worry."
Mao Lilan said a little embarrassedly: "I've caused you trouble."
"No." Matsuda Jinping's eyes moved down and fell on the little Edogawa Conan. "I remember that the positions of the male and female pools are not the same. For the next road, leave this kid to me."
Edogawa Conan's Mao Lilan was taken aback by what he habitually did. After all, Edogawa Conan's appearance is still a primary school student, and Mao Lilan has no defense between men and women at all.
But since Matsuda Jinping said so, Mao Lilan did not refuse: "Excuse me!"
So the person who was holding Edogawa Conan changed from Maurilan to Matsuda Jinping. At the fork in the road, Maurilan bowed to Matsuda Jinping again before leaving relaxed.
"You didn't want to go to the female soup just now, did you?" Matsuda's cool voice sounded from above.
Edogawa Conan froze: "How could it be!"
"Heh." Matsuda Jinping didn't have any malice, but his tone was still slightly mocking and smiled: "Don't learn from your uncle in this regard."
"I know!" Edogawa Conan vowed: "I won't become an adult like my uncle!"
However, Conan Edogawa asked curiously, "Is the instructor Onizuka that was just mentioned by the police officer Hagihara also the instructor of Brother Matsuda?"
Ah... it's my brother again. Matsuda Jinhei noticed this little detail.
He found that as long as he was relaxed and he was alone, Edogawa Conan would always change his tune unconsciously.
"You mean ghost?" Matsuda Jinping recalled.
...Ghost? This title...is it worthy of being Matsuda-san? Edogawa Conan complained in his heart, blinked his eyes and said obediently, "Yeah!"
Matsuda Jinhei replied lazily, "Well, Hagi and I are in the same class."
"The classes in the police academy are divided by the names of the instructors. We were in the Onizuka class back then."
"I remember that Hagi told you a part of it before, right?" Matsuda Jinping lowered his head: "Why are you curious again?"
Edogawa Conan replied obediently: "I just found out... Brother Matsuda and Officer Hagihara have always been classmates?"
"No." Matsuda Jinping felt that there was nothing he couldn't answer, so he said, "Junior high school or high school, how many times have you been out of the same class?"
"However, because the family is close, even if they are not in the same class, they will be used to waiting for another one after school, either going to the game hall or going to the car for racing."
"...You seem to have said something terrible just now, Matsuda-san."
Matsuda Jinping: "You heard wrong."
Edogawa Conan: "No! Absolutely not!"
Matsuda Jinping snorted and laughed: "You don't have any evidence anyway."
"Ah! Cheating!" Edogawa Conan complained.
They were about to reach the door of the male soup, but before entering, a strong man with a bald head came out and just bumped into Matsuda Jinhei's shoulder.
Matsuda Jinping frowned and moved to the side, the bald man glanced at Matsuda Jinping irritably. Because Edogawa Conan suddenly grabbed his hand and realized that Matsuda Jinhei, who still had children, did not conflict with this person after all.
Seeing Matsuda Jinping staring at the bald man's back, Edogawa Conan worried: "Brother Matsuda?"
Only then did Matsuda Jinping come back to his senses: "It's nothing."
"I just don't know why, but the person just now... looks a little familiar." Matsuda Jinping explained.
