"Next, don't rush to bring the groom out, we have a special segment."
While everyone's attention was focused on the emcee, Akemi whispered to Ai beside her:
"Shiho, do you think something happened to Mitsuyu?"
"It wasn't like this during the rehearsal."
"I don't know what Guangyou is thinking."
“He definitely has a plan,” Ai said without any worry. “I believe him.”
“That’s true.” Akemi felt a little more at ease thinking about what Kōyū had done in the past. “Then let’s trust him.”
At this point, the emcee had finished speaking and was preparing for the so-called "special segment".
The large screen flashed, and a call interface appeared in everyone's view.
Immediately afterwards, a languid voice, clearly indicating that the person was still half asleep, rang out.
Everyone present immediately recognized that it was Guangyou's voice.
What's the meaning?
Did he just wake up?
Not only the guests, but Akemi was also thinking about this at this moment.
With the wedding approaching, Guangyou has been busy with these things all night. Could it be that he overslept because of this, resulting in the bride having to enter early?
Once a thought arises, it takes root in the mind and grows wildly.
The more she thought about it, the more she felt that it wasn't impossible.
While she was thinking, the emcee had already exchanged a few words with Guangyou, and Guangyou agreed to start a video call.
As soon as the video was switched, everyone heard Guangyou yawn, followed by an explanation:
"I haven't been sleeping well these past few days. I was trying to take a nap, but I ended up sleeping until now."
"Excuse me, everyone."
"Ai, I'm sorry."
“That guy, Kōyū…” Akemi glanced at Ai beside her, but found that Ai was still so calm.
"That brat." Uncle Mori frowned, somewhat annoyed. "He overslept on such an important occasion as his wedding? When this brat gets here, I'm going to teach him a lesson."
Compared to Uncle Mori, Eri Kisaki was much more composed. She said:
"Don't be angry yet. That boy is very devoted to Ai. I don't think he would make such a mistake on such an important event as the wedding."
"There must be some plan."
"That makes sense." Uncle Mori thought about it and felt a little less angry when he heard his wife say that.
However, he was still a little angry and said:
"If you had a plan, you should have let us know in advance."
"They didn't even say hello."
"We do need to talk about him."
On this issue, Eri Kisaki and Uncle Mori reached an agreement.
There are people who share the same ideas as Uncle Mori, such as Shinichi Kudo.
He's almost thirty this year, but he hasn't changed his nature and isn't as steady as his father.
Seeing Kwangwoo, who had just woken up and still looked a little lazy in the shot, he couldn't help but shake his head, deliberately adopting the demeanor of an elder, and said:
"Guangyou is such an unreliable guy that he can even mess up something as important as his wedding."
Beside him, Xiaolan glanced at him and said only one sentence:
"You still dare to say Guangyou is unreliable?"
“He overslept because he was too tired during this period. I saw it with my own eyes. He was involved in and responsible for everything, big and small, of the wedding.”
"I don't know which person who called himself the 'Heisei Sherlock Holmes' left while preparing for the wedding, using the excuse that 'the case can't be solved without me.'"
"Ahem..." Shinichi Kudo felt a little embarrassed and fell silent.
"I'll be right there."
As he spoke, Guangyou on the screen touched his forehead with his hand and shook it gently, as if trying to shake off any lingering sleepiness.
Perhaps because he was in a hurry to get to the venue and had just woken up and was still not fully recovered, everyone saw that Guangyou hadn't even turned off the video, and he just put his phone on the bedside table before getting up to pack.
However, no one noticed that the emcee did not turn off the call, but let it play on.
The guests were all acquaintances who knew that Guangyou had put a lot of effort into preparing for the wedding and had done everything himself, so they all expressed their understanding.
Eri, who was sitting in the front, got up to get a stool and prepared to move it onto the stage so that her "daughter-in-law" could sit down and rest.
It was definitely not going to be possible to go back on the field, but luckily it wasn't hot today and the temperature was just right, so I sat down and rested for a bit.
Seeing her gesture, Ai gently shook her head to indicate that she didn't need it.
She believed that Kwang-woo would definitely make his appearance in a special way.
That guy has always been like that, he was over a decade ago, and he is now.
Thinking of this, Ai's lips curled up slightly again.
Just as she was thinking this, a male voice suddenly rang out.
"Over the years, I have been asked many questions."
The voice was very familiar; Ai Haibara would never mistake it—it was Kousuke's.
She turned her head and looked at the screen next to her.
The others present were the same as her.
Then, the image on the bedside table in the video call suddenly changed to the image of Guangyou washing up.
Guangyou's mouth didn't move on the screen, but his voice still came through the speakers.
"Of all the questions, one of the ones that I remember most vividly is 'Why do you like her?'"
“I always answer, ‘There’s no reason to like someone. Feelings are just that kind of inexplicable thing.’”
At this point, the guests present realized what was happening.
This is not a video call, but a video disguised as a video call!
"I knew it." Eri Kisaki had expected this and wasn't surprised. "I wonder what surprise he's prepared for Ai."
Since he didn't tell any of them, he must be preparing a surprise for Ai. It's a very simple logic.
