"When we first met, when I asked you if Mr. Akechi was Shinichi's neighbor... I felt at that time that Mr. Akechi seemed to have understood everything..."
Slowly and somewhat helplessly, Uchida Asami guessed.
Gao Yuan did not refute this. After all, there seemed to be no problem in that way, because after the school beauty pageant, when Asami Uchida approached him and wanted to contact Kudo Shinichi through herself, he did already know about her.
The idea is not because of my extraordinary observation skills, but purely because I have read the script.
Therefore, facing Asami Uchida's inquiry, Gao Yuan did not give any explanation. He just nodded and expressed. Then, thoughtfully, Gao Yuan seemed to understand something and turned to ask:
"So, Miss Uchida, you were alone in the villa just now... was it because Kudo Shinichi didn't come?"
It was impossible to describe the look of Asami Uchida who looked down and lost when he saw her alone in the villa just now. Gao Yuan had no choice but to omit the words, but generally speaking, Gao Yuan felt that he could make this girl, who seemed perfect in all aspects to outsiders, celebrate her birthday.
The person showing such an expression may just be the helpless person who is already proud but cannot get what he wants——
After all, if you take the initiative to put down your body and express your feelings to the other person, only to have the other person reject you outright, it is indeed hard to let go for a person who does everything smoothly, has never encountered such setbacks, and is a perfect person in the eyes of others.
Just like what Sawai Manabu said to himself just now, "I have never encountered such a thing before, so I am somewhat unwilling to do so."
Therefore, at the end of the original plot, after Asami Uchida heard the words of Manabu Sawai who was about to be taken away, "No matter what kind of man he is, he will surrender as long as you give the order." Asami Uchida would say "This
It's because you don't understand me as a person", because in fact, Manabu Sawai and Asami Uchida are two similar people.
In the original work, Asami Uchida was unwilling to admit her love to Kudou Shinichi and was rejected, so the rumor spread that she rejected the confession of a first-year boy; and Manabu Sawai also created that incident in the original work because he was unwilling to give in.
The original intention of starting a fire was to let Asami Uchida notice him...
"Um."
When hearing Gao Yuan's inquiry, Uchida Asami did not deny it, but just nodded, then looked out the car window, and said with some emotion:
"It's really strange... I feel like I can tell you something frankly to Mr. Akechi..."
Saying this, Asami Uchida smiled self-deprecatingly, looking a little decadent:
"I actually sent him the invitation letter for this birthday party a long time ago, but I waited for a long time and didn't receive a response, so I really wanted to know... But in the end, he didn't show up after all..."
Simply stating the results, Asami Uchida said sadly.
"It's not that easy to forcefully open someone's closed heart, especially when there's already someone in the other person's heart..."
Listening to Uchida Asami's words, Takato thought for a moment, and finally remembered similar lines in the original work, added his own thoughts, and responded like this.
"yes……"
After speaking lightly, Asami Uchida said no more.
In this way, the two of them seemed to be talking to each other incomprehensible words. During the short five-minute drive, from the villa on the top of the mountain to the karaoke shop in front of the station, until the moment they got off the bus, their expressions were still slightly decadent.
Asami Uchida's expression suddenly became natural, and she followed Gao Yuan into the private room...
…
"Ah? Sonoko, what did you think of? What's wrong?"
At this moment, in the private room, Xiaolan asked in confusion because she heard Yuanzi's thoughtful analysis.
"Well, how should I put it..."
After thinking about it, I felt like I was about to grasp the key points of the matter, but at the most critical moment, Yuanzi still didn't understand the most critical key, and thought solemnly——
"Ah, sorry for keeping everyone waiting!"
But at this moment, the door to the private room was opened, and Asami Uchida walked in with a smile, saying hello to everyone who was talking.
Seeing this, everyone couldn't help but look a little surprised when they saw Uchida Asami appearing here.
At the same time, after seeing Gao Yuan coming with him, Sawai Manabu, who was a little surprised because Gao Yuan had been away for a long time and had not come back, couldn't help but suddenly realized. He immediately said hello to Uchida Asami, and then said to Gao Yuan:
"I asked Mr. Akechi why he hasn't come back after being away for so long. It turns out he went back to call Asami!"
"After all, today's protagonist is Miss Uchida."
To this, Gao Yuan simply responded.
Later, due to the participation of Asami Uchida, the already lively atmosphere in the private room of the karaoke shop became even more cheerful. Everyone's interest was aroused and they had a great time together.
In this way, after playing in the private room until they were tired, everyone went back to the villa to cut the cake and celebrate Asami Uchida's birthday. Everything went as usual, and the birthday party ended like this.
In the afternoon, everyone who took a nap in the villa left one after another after sorting out the garbage in the villa.
In this regard, seeing that there was still no incident at this time, Gao Yuan sighed in his heart. It seemed that the deviation of this incident had rarely developed in a positive direction, so he could not help but feel relieved.
That is, although Uchida Asami did not encounter the danger in the original work this time, on the way back, in the "MINI" car driven by Takato, carrying Xiaolan, Sonoko, Conan and Uchida Asami on the way back to Yoneka Town,
Asami Uchida seemed to have figured it out and told Xiaolan and the others the truth——
"Huh? It was the senior who confessed her love to Shinichi?"
After hearing the confession of Asami Uchida, who was sitting in the passenger seat, Sonoko, who was in the back seat, stuck her head forward and said with some surprise.
"Yes, it was actually me who confessed my love to him at the beginning... You seem to have guessed this, right?"
Facing Sonoko's reaction, Asami Uchida held the side of her face with one hand, turned her head and looked back and said:
"It's just that I was severely rejected by him."
"But don't everyone say..."
When he was in the karaoke shop, Yuanzi had a similar feeling, but because of the rumors, he couldn't confirm it, so now, Yuanzi couldn't help but ask.
"That was a rumor I deliberately spread. I hope he can ignore me. After all, it was my first love..."
In a calm tone, Asami Uchida replied, then showed a helpless smile and sighed:
"But he didn't seem to care about the rumor... and it was only at that time that I realized that in Shinichi's heart, he had already liked someone!"
So, Asami Uchida said meaningfully.
"well?"
Hearing this, Yuanzi's thoughts suddenly aroused, and he couldn't help but curiously asked:
"The person Shinichi likes! Who is that?"
As he said this, Yuanzi couldn't help but look teasingly at Xiaolan, who was also sitting in the back seat next to him.
But at this moment, Conan, who was between Yuanzi and Xiaolan, had a red face——
"However, this is what he said at the time. But now, I feel that Shinichi's favorite may be others!"
