Ai was clearly taken aback when Kousuke suddenly picked her up.
Holding Ai in his arms, Kousuke said with a straight face:
"If I can't help you walk, then I'll carry you, okay?"
Only after hearing this did Ai realize what was happening.
She slightly raised her head to look at Guangyou.
At that moment, Kōyū was walking towards the gate and didn't have time to make eye contact with Ai.
After staring at Kousuke's cheek for a few seconds, Ai punched him.
Perhaps it was because of his illness, or perhaps Ai hadn't intended to exert herself, but Kousuke didn't feel any pain at all.
He glanced down at Ai in his arms, then looked up again and strode towards the door.
That seemingly insignificant tug just now felt like Ai expressing her dissatisfaction.
She was unhappy that he suddenly picked her up.
After the fight, the dissatisfaction dissipated.
She used a little force, wrapping her arms around Guangyou's neck.
Then she rested her head against Guangyou's chest and slowly closed her eyes.
It feels good to have someone to rely on.
This feeling seems to be amplified, especially after getting sick.
That's what Ai was thinking at that moment.
...
Rain continued to fall from the sky.
It made a crisp "crackling" sound when it hit the car window.
Fortunately, today is a day off, so there is no rush hour.
The road conditions are very smooth.
Except when waiting at red lights, Guangyou and his group's car hardly stopped.
In Japan, clinics do not require referral letters like many hospitals.
However, it's not like you can just go there and wait for a doctor's diagnosis.
You still need to make an appointment in advance.
It was only when driving towards Beikacho that Kōsuke found the clinic's phone number.
After the call connected and he confirmed it was from the clinic, Guangyou asked directly:
"Excuse me, does the clinic have any doctors available right now?"
There was a lovely young lady with a sweet voice on the other side.
She said apologetically:
"I'm very sorry, it's Sunday today, and there are many patients coming to see the doctor, so the doctors are quite busy."
"It may be impossible to see a doctor in a short period of time."
"So it really won't work?"
Guangyou had anticipated this situation before making the call.
After all, today is Sunday.
Many people may have minor health problems in their daily lives.
But because I was at work and it wasn't serious, I put it off until the weekend.
Most importantly, this clinic was open while the other clinics were closed.
It's natural to have more people.
At this time, Guangyou could not find any other clinics.
He had no choice but to continue asking:
"So, how long will it take approximately?"
The young woman paused, probably looking through the reservation records.
Then she spoke:
"If you make an appointment now, you'll probably have to wait another two hours."
As soon as he finished speaking, Guangyou said:
"Okay, I'll make an appointment now."
Upon hearing this, the young lady said:
"Okay, I'll make a note of it for you."
After giving a rough estimate of the time, Guangyou hung up the phone.
He felt that two hours was still a bit long.
But there's nothing we can do.
He couldn't find a clinic that was open on its day off at that time.
There are no outpatient clinics at the nearby hospitals.
If a letter of introduction is not required, then paying a registration fee is fine.
What Guangyou finds most frustrating is that there are no hospitals like this nearby.
Unless Ai Haibara is right now...
No, no, I can't think like that.
Two hours it is.
wait!
After making the appointment at the clinic, Kōyū looked down at Ai lying on his lap.
There was an unyielding worry between his brows.
Ai, who was still unable to sleep, was also looking at Kousuke.
Seeing his expression, Ai pursed her lips and placed her hand on Kyou's hand.
Then she patted it gently.
He indicated to Guangyou that he didn't need to worry.
Mitsuyu gave Ai a forced smile.
His worries did not lessen because of Ai's actions.
Unless Ai suddenly gets better, Mitsuyu will still be worried.
Knowing this, Ai didn't move her hand away and kept it on Kyou's hand.
The beetle slowly came to a stop.
While waiting at a red light, Dr. Agasa checked the time.
He suddenly remembered where he was going, and then thought of the news he had seen in the past few days, and said:
"By the way, it's time to eat now."
"There's a small restaurant in the food court of that department store that's famous for its egg porridge."
"After eating the egg porridge, I think Ai might have more energy and be more energetic."
Drinking some hot porridge is indeed a good thing when you're sick.
Let's leave aside the issue of nutritional supplements for now.
Drinking some lightly flavored hot porridge can also make your stomach feel more comfortable.
Upon hearing this suggestion, Kōyū looked down at Ai and asked softly:
"Why don't you rest in the car for a while, and I'll go buy you some porridge?"
"Let me go up with you," Ai said.
She naturally had her reasons for saying that:
"Let me move around a bit more."
"Appropriate exercise is beneficial to the condition."
After thinking for a moment, Guangyou nodded in agreement:
"Oh well."
"But you'd better stay within my sight..."
No, you have to stay by my side.
Hearing this, Ai deliberately put on a disgusted look and said:
"knew."
"You're getting more and more long-winded."
This is not the first time Guangyou has been told he's long-winded.
I've said that before.
