With the failure of the football qualifiers, Qian Jun felt that Xinyi would not be so tight on time, although he still insisted on practicing with him. In the following days, Xin Yi began to show his reasoning skills and solved some cases. In Qian Jun's opinion, it was not enough for the two of them to spend their time. They were all helping little girls find cards, lost pens, missing toys, and so on.
Shinichi also hoped to be entrusted with normal cases. However, the reality was cruel. Why would anyone really look for a first-year primary school student to solve a case? Qian Jun worked hard to cultivate the power of the earth element and increase the Qilin Genuine Qi. At the same time, he learned the sword way from Xin Zhuang and Wu Ping. He began to grasp the preliminary sense of Qi. This made Xin Zhuang very surprised. He was right about Qian Jun's talent. It also proved that his years of exploration were correct. This method of using Qi to control the sword had to be practiced from childhood.
On this day, Xiao Lan told Qianjun and Shinichi that her mother, Fei Yingli, had invited everyone to her house to thank Qianjun and the others for helping Kogoro last time. Qianjun realized that Shinichi seemed to be very afraid of Xiaolan's mother. It was a fear that came from the bottom of his bones. He found an excuse to refuse, but Qianjun pulled Shinichi along. Just like that, Chijun, Shinichi, Wenliang, Sonoko, Naoko, and Jing Yang arrived at the Maori family's house in Michahana Town. Chijun met Mrs. Maori, a bespectacled and proud beauty. Compared to Kudo's mother, Akiko, she was indeed like a queen. Her figure was also super good, Chijun thought.
When Xin Yi came to the Mao Li family, he was extremely honest, causing Qian Jun to suspect that there was something wrong with him. Fei Yingli first expressed her gratitude to Qianjun for giving Kogoro clothes, but when it came to wine, her tone completely changed. Qianjun and Wen Liang felt that the air in the room was about to freeze. Thus, Qian Jun hurriedly pointed out that the wine was from the garden, and that he and Wen Liang were only responsible for transporting it. Poor Yuan Zi was fuming with anger, but she couldn't say anything to explain that the wine was indeed her family's.
Qian Jun also realized that Yingli treated the three girls differently from the three boys. It was a classic example of feminism. He understood Shinichi's feelings a little. Shinichi, you're on your own in the future. After Yingli pulled Sonoko, Naoko, Jing Yang, and Ran to take a photo together, Shinichi hurriedly asked to leave. Unexpectedly, Yingli tried to persuade him to stay, and her tone was firm.
At this time, Maori Kogoro finally returned home from work. He was very happy with Qianjun's visit and insisted on drinking. He did not care that the guests were all primary school students. Seeing his wife on the verge of losing her temper, Kogoro was forced to give in and everyone only drank fruit juice. Qian Jun admired Uncle Mao Li for marrying such a tough queen. Perhaps only a woman like Ying Li could control a lazy man like Kogoro, just like Liu Bang and Lu Zhi back then. Without Lu Zhi, Liu Bang might have been a hooligan for the rest of his life.
When Yingli was excitedly preparing dinner, Maori Kogoro said that he wanted to go out with an ugly expression, but Yingli mercilessly suppressed him. Shinichi sneaked toward the door, but Yingli caught him on the spot and threw him back. Everyone was baffled, and only Xiaolan sighed helplessly. When everyone was chatting, Qian Jun found out that Aunt Yingli was a famous female lawyer, and she was a perfect match for the police.
However, Qian Jun couldn't hold it in any longer during dinner." Auntie, can I go back first? I promised my sister that I would watch cartoons with her," Wen Liang said." Auntie, I'm not feeling well. I still have something to do at home today, so Mom wants me to go back early." Shinichi said," Auntie, I'm not hungry today. Can I go first?"”Jing Yang hurriedly said," I still have to go back to the dojo to learn Kendo…" Naoko immediately responded," I haven't finished my cultivation today either…"”Yingli's face was unfriendly." What? Could it be that the food I cook is very unpalatable? Why are you brats so rude?……”
For the first time, Qianjun felt like he was the only one who could eat. In order not to embarrass Xiaolan, everyone had to grit their teeth and eat. They finally understood why Shinichi, who often came, and Uncle Maori, who wanted to go out during mealtime, were in such pain. Qian Jun groaned and swore that he would never come to Mao Li's house to eat again. It was worse than poison. At this moment, he really missed the food that his mother made for him. He really had no right to speak without comparison. Qianjun was only curious about Xiaolan's reaction. How could she eat such a disgusting meal with such relish? Even Maori Kogoro was desperately biting into the food in his mouth, and his expression changed rapidly. How did they survive all these years?
Qian Jun was glad that he was still alive after he returned home. He asked his mother to carry him once. Qian Jun, who was lying in his mother's arms, refused to come out. Dai Zi was surprised that his son seemed to be hurt today. He had never seen his son so frustrated, whether it was the hard training in martial arts or the loss in a football match. Xiaoyue, who was a little jealous, also wanted her mother to carry her. Dai Zi put down Qianjun and asked carefully. When Qian Jun talked about the meal at Mrs. Mori's house, Yoshiko could not help but laugh. She wondered if Mrs. Mori's cooking was that exaggerated.
The food that Yoko cooked herself was only delicious, and it was usually cooked by the two maids at home. She only had time to cook it herself occasionally. Seeing her son so hurt made Dai Zi feel like a good mother. She decided to cook some soup for her son. Qianjun couldn't eat anything else now. When Qianjun and Xiaoyue were drinking the soup made by their mother, Qianjun felt so happy that he had to cherish it in the future. Xiaoyue teased her brother and asked her mother to make soup. When Kazuo returned home reeking of alcohol, he was also attracted by the aroma of the soup. He was curious why Daiko wanted to cook today.
When Qian Jun talked about the painful experience today, Hiroshi Kazuo was also very surprised. He had heard of Fei Yingli's reputation and near-perfect evaluation in the legal world, but he did not expect her to have such a side. As the family sat together to enjoy a warm supper, Yoshino Kazuo also mentioned that when he and Yoshiko were secretly together, the food that Yoshiko cooked was also difficult to swallow. After all, Yoshiko used to be the daughter of a rich family, but she became better and better.
Yoshiko was also curious about the fact that the food she made back then was indeed not good, but it should not be as bad as Mrs. Maori's. Moreover, since they had been married for so many years and their daughter was already so old, how could Mrs. Maori's cooking skills not have improved at all? This was hard for a woman in Japan to imagine. Hiroshi Kazuo felt that no matter how close the Maori couple was, they probably wouldn't be able to withstand such long-term torture. Sooner or later, they would break down if the couple didn't make any changes.
One day, Jing Yang came to tell Qian Jun that Xiaolan hadn't been to the dojo to practice karate for a long time. Moreover, she didn't go to the tennis club after school recently. She went straight home. Even Yuan Zi asked Xiaolan a few times, but Xiaolan shook her head sadly. Qianjun finally realized that something was wrong with Xiaolan recently, so he asked Shinichi. "What is it? Something's wrong with Xiaolan. Seriously, what's wrong? I think she's pretty good. She's no different from before.”Qian Jun was completely speechless when he faced Shinichi, whose IQ was over 250 and EQ was negative.
In the end, the two of them decided to conduct a detective investigation, which greatly increased Shinichi's interest, so he followed Xiaolan after school. The results of the investigation came out very quickly. Xiaolan's parents were living separately. Xiaolan was now living with her father, Maori Kogoro. For some reason, Maori Kogoro resigned from the police station and became a private detective. It seemed that business was not doing well. However, he liked to drink and eat. Xiaolan's life was naturally tight. Fortunately, she still had the living expenses given by her mother.
"Are you kidding me? Even if we get a divorce, Xiaolan should still follow Mommy.”"Please, it's a separation, not a divorce. Different from who?" "Stupid Shinichi, you don't understand. Haven't you heard that a child would rather follow a beggar's mother than an official's father?”"If it was someone else, maybe. Think about the food that Auntie Yingli cooked. So if it were me, I would rather follow the uncle.”" Damn it, Shinichi, don't mention Aunt Eili's damn food…" Both of them felt a chill run down their spines when they thought of Eili's cooking.
Xin Xin propped his chin on his hand and thought of a solution." It'll be more convenient to look for Xiaolan in the future. This is the only good thing.”Qian Jun punched him." Why are you still thinking about this? Think about how to help Xiaolan get through this."”Shinichi immediately said," Why don't we help Uncle solve the case and make him a famous detective?"”Qian Jun smiled bitterly." Shinichi, do you think you can solve any case with your current level of reasoning and experience? I'm afraid you won't be able to help." Moreover, he was so busy with his homework and had to practice basketball. How could he have the time?”
Shinichi was at a loss." Then what do you think we should do? We can't just take money from your family, right? Oh right, your family seems to be richer, and I have pocket money too. Let's pool together to at least let Xiaolan live a better life.”Qian Jun frowned." But how do we give her the money?" If we give it directly, the one-track-minded Xiaolan will definitely reject it. I got it. How about this, you and Xiaolan get engaged. This way, it won't be a problem for you to sponsor her. You can even get your parents to pay for it directly.”Hearing this, New One blushed and immediately objected vehemently. Seeing his strong reaction, Qian Jun had no choice but to give up.
Qian Jun felt that he could still be flexible. He could ask Yuan Zi to help Xiao Lan buy some things, ask Jing Yang to find a way to exempt Xiao Lan from going to the dojo, ask Xin Yi to buy some lottery tickets, and then give the money to Xiao Lan. Qian Jun felt that he was a competent Watson. He even helped Holmes solve his family problems, which was rare in history.
Jing Yang settled the matter very quickly. With just a few words, Xiao Lan's aptitude was recognized by the dojo's Grandmaster, Xin Zhuang Wu Ping, so she was exempted from her tuition fees. Jing Yang immediately informed Xiaolan that she could continue to go. Xiaolan was a little hesitant, but Naoko quickly tried to persuade her, saying that it was the intention of the big shot, Takehei Shinsho, to not let her bury her talent. Xiao Lan remembered the old man who taught her karate that day and was extremely touched. She agreed with tears and asked Jing Yang to express her respect and gratitude to Master Xin Zhuang when he returned.
However, things were not looking good for Yuanzi. The first time, Xiaolan accepted Yuanzi's gift, but she was not stupid. She soon realized that Yuanzi kept dragging her out to shop, so she told Yuanzi that she wanted to be her best friend for life. Therefore, she would never use her good friend Yuanzi's money again, as it would taint their friendship. After hearing the emotional and tearful Yuan Zi's words, Shinichi complained that Xiaolan was like this, and Qianjun laughed at her for being stubborn and inflexible. Yuan Zi was naturally very angry with the two of them. Qian Jun dragged Shinichi over to persuade Lan. Shinichi said that there was nothing wrong with accepting a friend's help during a difficult time. Xiao Lan still shook her head and refused. She even returned the money Shinichi had won from the lottery ticket. She had already realized that the lottery ticket did not win.
Qian Jun told her the story of the friendship between Guan Zhong and Bao Yu in Japanese. Guan Zhong said,"When I was in trouble, I used to do business with Uncle Bao. I divided the money and gave it to him. Uncle Bao didn't think I was greedy and knew that I was poor. I once planned for Uncle Bao and became even more poor. Uncle Bao didn't think I was stupid. He knew the advantages and disadvantages of the times. I have been expelled by you three times as an official. Uncle Bao doesn't think I'm unworthy. He knows that I'm not lucky. I have fought three battles and fled three times. Uncle Bao doesn't think I'm timid. He knows I have an old mother. After the son was defeated, he suddenly died in prison and was humiliated. Uncle Bao did not think that I was shameless, but knew that I was not ashamed of trifles, but ashamed that my fame was not prominent in the world. It was my parents who gave birth to me, and it was Bao Zi who knew me.”
After Uncle Bao recommended Guan Zhong to the court, he gave Guan Zhong a body. His descendants were granted official positions in Qi for generations, and there were more than ten generations of fiefdoms. He was often called a doctor. There are not many wise people like Guan Zhong in the world, but many people like Bao Shu who can understand people. Qian Jun shook his head and told Xiaolan about the ancient Chinese characters he had memorized yesterday. Then, he said that the situation in the garden was exactly the same as Xiaolan's. However, everyone looked at Qian Jun strangely. "What is this guy talking about?”Naoko said,"I don't know. It seems so profound."”"He's a weirdo," Jing Yang said.”"What's Guan Bao?" Lan asked timidly.”Wen Liang came over to join in the fun." It seems to be a type of abalone. But why does it look like Yuan Zi and Xiao Lan?"”Yuan Zi was so angry that she was about to fly into a rage. Shinichi knew that it was definitely not an abalone. It should be an allusion from the Chinese Dynasty." Hey, Qianjun, please explain. Don't be so dramatic. We don't understand what you're saying. Explain it in detail."”
Qian Jun rubbed his forehead. He was really playing the lute to a cow. He could only explain in detail the friendship between Guan Zhong and Bao Shuya, pointing out that this was already an idiom in the Celestial Dynasty. Now, they finally understood. Everyone felt that their friendship was really touching. Qian Jun, who had thought that he had achieved his goal, was pleased with himself. However, Xiao Lan refused, saying," But I'm not Guan Zhong, and Yuan Zi is not Bao Shuya. Our friendship is different from theirs. I will stick to my own principles."”Qian Jun felt like he had hit a wall. He had already explained it so clearly, so he could only look at Shinichi helplessly." Think of a way yourself. There's really no other way this time." Shinichi smiled bitterly. I knew this would happen.
There was only one way left. Qian Jun risked being abused to find Yingli and ask her to give him more living expenses. This was what Shinichi should have done. However, Shinichi refused to go. He found an excuse to stay and comfort Xiaolan because Qianjun always said that he would do anything for his friends. Shinichi said that he should do it once. Qianjun looked up at the sky and sighed. Yingli was also curious about this kid who suddenly came to visit. After asking for the reason, he asked," Why didn't Shinichi come to me?”Qian Jun smiled bitterly." Shinichi is with Xiaolan, so I came over. I'm their best friend."”
A cold glint flashed across Yingli's glasses." Really? I wonder if that kid really cares about Xiaolan? You, on the other hand, are a little too enthusiastic. Are you also thinking about my Xiaolan?”Qian Jun was also shocked." Auntie, don't say that. Xiaolan and I have a pure friendship. Besides, I have a girlfriend."”"Oh, is it that garden? Indeed, your two families are well-matched.”"No, Auntie, don't talk nonsense, okay? You'll die.”Qian Jun felt goosebumps all over his body when he thought of Yuan Zi's arrogant appearance." It's Naoko. Yes, it's Naoko."”Qian Jun used Naoko as a shield in a moment of desperation.
"Is that so? That Jing Yang seems to like you too? Little brat, are you cheating on me?" Qian Jun was so scared that he fell off his chair." Auntie, I'm only seven years old. Isn't it too early to talk about girlfriends?"”Yingli snorted coldly." Seriously, these kids nowadays. You only know that you're seven years old, yet you still think that you're seventeen. Alright, I know about this. Don't get involved.”
It wasn't that Yingli wanted to give the money, she was just worried that Kogoro would take the extra money and go to the bar to drink and flirt with girls. Qian Jun hurriedly stood up and said goodbye. Fortunately, he didn't ask him to stay for dinner. When he reached the door, he shouted," Stop…" Qian Jun was so scared that his legs went weak. "You're not allowed to make alcohol for Xiaolan's father in the future, do you hear me?”Qian Jun heaved a sigh of relief." Hey, I understand. Goodbye, Auntie."”Then, Qian Jun fled for his life. Qian Jun thought to himself," As a friend, I've done everything I can. I have a clear conscience. Shinichi, you're on your own. This future mother-in-law is not easy to deal with."
