Chapter 1019: A Troubled Day with Haibara Ai (Part )
It is not known whether Fujino has made a , under Haibara Ai's insistence, Fujino finally gave up the idea of going to McDonald's Golden Arches for Crazy Thursday and turned to a cafe on the street nearby.
It was a small cafe that looked cozy and sophisticated.
The only problem is the location is that it is located next to a downhill corner of the highway, and their parking lot is a little further up the road. There is also a floor-to-ceiling window facing the parking lot, forming a concave buffer zone with the corner.
As soon as the car loses control, it will rush into the parking lot, and then...
Fujino seriously suspected that a speeding dump truck might have skidded into the coffee shop.
The young lady in the cafe was wearing a maid-like outfit, which blended into the surrounding scene. Following the young lady, Fujino and Huihara Ai came to another window seat facing the driveway.
Looking out the window, you can see the departing traffic.
The scenery is pretty good.
The maid held the menu and handed it to the two of them, saying with a smile, "Excuse me, what would you two like to order?"
"Father and daughter...?"
Haibara Ai, who was about to pick up the menu, paused when she heard this, raised her head, and looked at her with dead eyes.
So, do they look like father and daughter?
By the way, Fujino is only eighteen years old, okay?
Even if Nihong could have married earlier, it wouldn't have been like this...
All in all, don't go too far!
Feeling a wave of unfriendly gazes, the maid realized that she had said something wrong and continued, "Then... could they be brother and sister?"
Fujino responded helplessly: "Almost the same, cousins."
The maid smiled awkwardly: "I'm so sorry, after all, you two feel very similar, more like father and daughter than brother and sister."
Haibara Ai was also a little helpless about this. She turned her head and looked at Fujino, a little confused: Are they really alike?
Turning her head, she looked at her reflection in the window beside her, then looked at Fujino. After thinking for a moment, the little loli showed a pensive look - they really looked alike.
Just as Huiyuan Ai was deep in thought, Fujino's voice suddenly came: "Xiao Ai, it's time to order."
"Oh..." Huiyuan Ai recovered and picked up the menu and glanced at it, "I want waffles and coffee."
"I'll have a waffle, too, and a cup of black tea."
"Ok!"
The maid left with the receipt.
Fujino looked at the thoughtful Huihara Ai and asked, "Are you thinking about what that lady just said?"
"Um……"
Huiyuan Ai nodded: "Is it really similar?"
“I don’t think they are quite alike, but similar.”
Fujino thought for a moment and explained, "In interpersonal communication, the first impression a person makes determines everything. Two people with the same temperament will subconsciously make people feel that they are very similar."
"It's like being an office worker. You can tell at a glance that the other person is an office worker."
"Sometimes, even if siblings look similar, their temperaments can cause a certain deviation in their feelings."
"Of course, it is not ruled out that the waitress was just being polite."
After hearing this, Haibara Ai thought about it for a moment and nodded in agreement.
If you think about it, it's like she is just like her sister. Compared to her, who looks plain and is described as a porcelain doll, her sister's cheerful type doesn't look like a sister to her at all.
Of course, the Nana sisters are an exception.
They are truly exactly the same.
There are some subtle differences, but the differences are almost negligible.
…………
Soon, the maid brought coffee and waffles. She also gave us a pancake pie and said with a smile, "I'm so sorry for what happened just now. Consider this as compensation for you!"
"Thank you!"
"You're welcome. It seems like a guest has arrived. I won't say anything more for now. Just remember to come back next time!"
Fujino was very satisfied with the service attitude of the gift.
The maid turned around and went to greet the other two men in suits.
The two men, one had long hair and looked a little sloppy, as if he was engaged in art or something like that; the other was elegant and easy-going, but there was a hint of shrewdness between his brows, a bit like a person in power.
Judging from the conversation between the two people, it is almost the same.
Probably, one of them is the president of a company, and the other is an artist, and the two had some dispute over money or business, such as job hopping.
The dispute, plus the fact that the two of them were sitting near the floor-to-ceiling windows of the parking lot, gave people the feeling that a dump truck would rush in and kill them at any second.
Thinking of this, Fujino couldn't help but pat his forehead.
Why are you thinking about such depressing things when you are out having fun?
It should be, right?
Huiyuan Ai tilted her head in confusion: "Is there something strange about those two people?"
Fujino retracted his gaze and replied in a low voice: "No, I just felt that a car would rush in through the window and hit them."
Upon hearing this, Huiyuan Ai looked over, touched her chin, and lowered her eyes in thought: "If it's from this angle, it's really possible..."
"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore, let's eat first."
"it is good."
Fujino didn't think too much about it, and picked up a waffle with a fork. "But speaking of it, it's really nice to eat out occasionally and experience a different taste from home."
"This is what is called freshness." Huiyuan Ai held the coffee and nodded slightly, "After all, no matter how delicious it is, you will get tired of it if you eat too much. You always need something fresh to improve the taste."
These are all mentioned in the guide.
Of course, there are other reasons besides this.
Well, it’s mainly because of that young lady from Kyoto.
Although this woman looks a bit big-breasted and brainless, she is actually very smart.
She was worried that if she ran into her when she and Fujino went out, she would definitely pester Fujino to follow her, and then their shopping trip would be completely ruined.
"But their pancake pie seems to be leftover from yesterday."
"I tasted it, and it doesn't taste very good... But that's it. After all, it was given to me for free. As long as there are no quality issues, there's nothing much to complain about."
"Well, it's free after all...it's pretty delicious. The waffles are pretty good too."
"I can see that the jam on the waffles has all got to your lips."
"Ok?"
"Somewhere beside..."
"Forget it, I'll wipe it for you."
Haibara Ai stuck out her little tongue and licked the edge of her mouth.
But her tongue was not long enough for her to lick the jam that touched her lips.
Fujino had no choice but to take out his handkerchief and wipe it.
Haibara Ai was slightly stunned, and her pupils couldn't help but widen.
The scene before her reminded her of her childhood.
My elder sister also used a handkerchief to wipe her mouth...
Although my sister is no longer here, there is still someone to help wipe my mouth.
Thinking of this, Haibara Ai's cheeks relaxed slightly. She didn't show any expression, but a faint smile appeared in her heart.
