Chapter 1768 The Secret that Cannot Be Told
"I'm sorry, Uncle Shigemitsu." Seeing Yamamoto Shigemitsu acting like a drowned rat, Li Xuehao quickly used a tissue to help him wipe it up.
Yamamoto Shigemitsu also sorted himself out a little, and looked at him with a slightly strange look: "Because I said it right, are you very excited?"
"Uncle Chongguang, in your eyes, am I that kind of person?" Li Xuehao smiled bitterly.
Yamamoto Shigemitsu didn't speak, just looked at him steadily.
Li Xuehao looked at him face to face with a clear conscience.
After a while, Yamamoto Shigemitsu withdrew his gaze, nodded and said, "Now I kind of believe it."
Li Xuehao breathed a sigh of relief, just believe it.
Yamamoto Shigemitsu continued: "With this kind of ability, it is best to be a detective. Any difficult cases can be easily solved. How about it? Are you really interested in being my assistant?"
"...Ahem, Uncle Chongguang, I still have to go to school." Li Xuehao didn't expect that he would make such an invitation. He was stunned for a moment and quickly said tactfully.
"Haha, I was just joking. After all, you are still a high school student. We will wait until you graduate from college." Yamamoto Shigemitsu smiled and patted his shoulder, but there was still some regret in his eyes.
Li Xuehao was still worried at this time, fearing that he would make any embarrassing requests again. He should have rejected his offer to treat him to dinner if he had known before.
Fortunately, Yamamoto Shigemitsu didn't speak any more. He unscrewed the beer cap, poured himself a full glass, and drank half of the glass in one gulp: "The frozen beer tastes so good!" Gululu, and poured the remaining half of the glass. Drink it all in one gulp.
Li Xuehao felt like he was seeing an alcoholic uncle. This is very common in Japan. You can usually see some office workers drinking like this in an izakaya, and they keep cheering.
Yamamoto Shigemitsu is no exception as a detective, just like thousands of alcoholics.
Li Xuehao also started eating and drinking, thinking of finishing his meal quickly and going back.
At this time, Yukio Kurakane, the owner of the izakaya, finished cooking the food and came out of the kitchen at the back. Since there were very few guests in the izakaya, he spotted the regular customers at a glance and walked over quickly.
"Yamamoto, when did you come and why didn't you notify me?" Yukio Kurakae faced the direction of Yamamoto Shigemitsu, so he ignored the person sitting with his back to him.
"I just came here not long ago." Yamamoto Shigemitsu stood up and fist-checked with Kura Kane Yukio. It could be seen that he and the owner of the izakaya should be very familiar, at least they are not ordinary friends. No wonder they chose this place to treat guests.
"Hello, Mr. Kurakane." Naturally, Li Xuehao couldn't wait for Kurakane Yukio to find him before greeting him. That would be too rude, so he took the initiative to greet him.
"You are..." Kurakane Yukio turned his head in surprise, and after a moment of hesitation, he finally came to his senses, "Mr. Manaka?"
"It's me." Li Xuehao nodded, because when he first came to the izakaya, he and Anna Chi Li were dressed very maturely, and now they were back to their teenage clothes, so no wonder he was hesitant.
"Kurakane, do you know Koji?" Yamamoto Shigemitsu on the side was also curious. Someone actually knew the owner of the izakaya. He was obviously a high school student. How did the two of them know each other?
"Yes, Mr. Manaka helped me a lot." Yukio Kurakae said with a smile, and suddenly came back to his senses, "You know him too?"
"Well, Koji is my junior." Of course, Yamamoto Shigemitsu couldn't introduce him as his daughter's lover, so he said it very vaguely.
"I see." Kurakane Yukio didn't think too much and looked at the young man with a smile, "Mr. Manaka, isn't Ms. Hikari with you?"
"Miss Fei Li?" Yamamoto Shigemitsu's eyes narrowed slightly as he sat back in his seat.
Li Xuehao's heart tightened, and he quickly explained: "Ikekari-senpai, she has her own affairs. In fact, she and I don't have... that kind of relationship." It's normal for Yukio Kurakae to remember Ikekari Anna, because the two of them were originally He once had a drinking contest, but the end result was that he was drunk and knocked down by Anna, a female high school student.
"Haha, young people don't have to be too shy. It can be seen that Miss Fei Li likes you very much." Kurakane Yukio laughed, thinking that he was shy, and left after saying a few words.
Li Xuehao didn't know whether to laugh or cry. This was really harmful, but he also knew that Yukio Kurakae didn't mean it because he didn't know that his future father-in-law was at the scene.
After sitting down, Yamamoto Shigemitsu glanced over sharply: "Can you tell me about Miss Fei Li?" Although his tone was calm, there was a suppressed anger.
"Uncle Shigemitsu, it was actually the boss of Kurakane who misunderstood." In order to prevent Yamamoto Shigemitsu from misunderstanding, Li Xuehao could only tell him the reason why he came to the izakaya in the first place. Anyway, Yamamoto Shigemitsu had already seen the ghost, and some secrets were very important to him. It's no longer a secret.
"You mean, your school has a spiritual club that specializes in studying supernatural events such as ghosts?" Yamamoto Shigemitsu was surprised after hearing this and temporarily put "Miss Scarlet Carp" aside.
"Yes." Li Xuehao knew why he was surprised. After all, the weird "Spirit Level Society" sounded very unreliable.
"It's unbelievable. Is there such a club now?" If he hadn't seen the ghost with his own eyes, Yamamoto Shigemitsu would never believe what this kind of club could do, and would only regard it as a middle school club.
"So what is the result of your investigation? Is there really a flying demon here?" He suddenly asked in a lowered voice.
Li Xuehao looked to the side. In fact, the ghost girl Kurakane Noriko was always beside him, but Yamamoto Shigemitsu couldn't see it. He also lowered his voice and said: "Actually, Feiyuanmo is the daughter of Kurakane's boss."
"Huh?" Yamamoto Shigemitsu was startled. He remembered that Kurakane's daughter died ten years ago.
Li Xuehao knew that instead of saying it with his mouth, it would be better to let him see it with his own eyes and open his eyes directly to him.
Yamamoto Shigemitsu was about to ask when he suddenly saw a fifteen or sixteen year old girl standing next to him. She looked very familiar.
"Who are you?" He hesitated, not daring to recognize her for a moment.
The girl was a little surprised by his sudden stare, but she quickly guessed the reason and said with a smile: "Uncle Chongguang, have you forgotten me?"
"Ah—" Yamamoto Shigemitsu couldn't help but exclaimed when he heard the other party calling him "Uncle Shigemitsu," but after half a cry, he immediately covered his mouth, "Are you, are you... Noriko? Kura. My daughter?"
"Yes, Uncle Shigemitsu." Noriko Kurakane nodded and bowed again.
Yamamoto Shigemitsu opened a second bottle of wine, this time blowing directly into the mouth of the bottle. He drank half of the bottle before he calmed down: "Noriko, does your father know about this?"
"Dad doesn't know I'm here, so Uncle Shigemitsu, please keep it a secret for me." Noriko Kurakane said slightly naughtily.
Li Xuehao has never been able to figure out the reason why Noriko Kurakane did this. In fact, if she told her, her father would be very happy. Why should she hide it from him?
