Chapter 298 Who would use a princess hug?
Asami Endo had a beautiful line that she wanted to utter, but she almost vomited it out because of Jiang Xia's shoulder.
She was forced to remain upside down, blood rushing to her head. The romantic pink bubbles in her mind were gradually replaced by question marks. Something was not right... This destined heroic rescue of the damsel in distress was not right no matter how you looked at it!
She didn't know whether she was too tired, too angry, or smoked by the smoke. She looked at the upside-down fire scene and slowly lost consciousness.
Jiang Xia carried the person and stood up again.
At that moment just now, he actually subtly understood Asami Endo's desire to be carried like a princess.
But he still felt that it was more convenient to carry her. After all, a princess hug would take up two hands, and now he had to free up one hand for...
Jiang Xia turned around and looked forward.
Sawai appeared in the corridor without anyone noticing. He was holding a fire extinguisher, and the fire around him had shrunk a little.
Sawai glanced at Jiang Xia and Endo Asami on his shoulder and frowned secretly.
He walked over and handed the fire extinguisher to Jiang Xia, trying to pretend that the two of them were exchanging the things in their hands naturally, mainly to get Endo Asami over and ensure that she would see him when she opened her eyes.
However, Jiang Xia did not take his fire extinguisher, and of course did not hand the person to him.
The high school student detective walked towards the door on the charred floor. When he passed by Sawai, he suddenly turned his head and whispered to him: "Are you comfortable with the fire?"
Sawai was startled and his fake smile froze on his face: "You...!"
Jiang Xia didn't wait for him to finish the rest of his words, and walked towards the exit without stopping, leaving behind only a righteous back that was neither hurried nor slow.
Sawai's eyes fell on his back, he clenched his teeth, murderous intent suddenly surged in his heart, and he clenched the fire extinguisher.
The metal can was heavy and hard. Sawai felt the heavy touch and couldn't help thinking - this must be a suitable weapon.
Taking advantage of the fact that other people's vision was blocked by the fire, a ruthless look flashed in Zejing's eyes. He took a step forward and swung the blunt weapon in his hand.
…
Bang.
"ah--!!!!"
…
…
When Asami Endo woke up again, she was in the hospital. The doctor had just left, and next to her were her two college best friends.
From the nearby ward, a familiar scream like a pig being slaughtered was faintly heard.
Asami Endo was startled when she heard this. Before she could ask more questions, her girlfriends beside her had already whispered the whole thing out -
After Jiang Xia entered the villa yesterday, Ze Jing also entered the fire scene, but the latter unfortunately had his leg broken by the fallen beam.
The classmates originally thought that this was a hero who attempted to save someone but failed. However, not long after Sawai was sent to the hospital, the police arrived. The owner of the villa that rented them and the insurance company also arrived soon, intending to talk to Sawai about criminal law and compensation. It was not until then that the classmates heard that the fire last night was not an accident, but was deliberately set by Sawai, with the purpose of winning Asami Endo's heart by being a hero and saving the beauty.
"Luckily Jiang Xia saw through the truth, otherwise not only would Mami be in danger, but we would also have to bear the compensation together afterwards, even though we didn't do anything... Sawai is too insidious!" The two classmates accidentally exposed a little bit of the plasticity of their friendship.
Fortunately, Asami Endo didn't care. She lay on the bed, staring blankly at the ceiling.
When I heard the name Jiang Xia, my ribs suddenly hurt a little.
but……
…
Mao Lilan and Suzuki Sonoko went with Jiang Xia to take a statement.
Jiang Xia seemed to have something else to do, so he finished taking the statement and left first.
Mao Lilan and Suzuki Sonoko had nothing to do today, so they discussed and decided to go visit their senior Asami who was burned. Conan, who was Mao Lilan's current personal assistant, also followed them to the hospital.
The three of them simply brought some gifts for visiting the patient, knocked on the door gently, and entered the ward.
They originally thought that Endo Asami was still sleeping, but when they pushed the door open, they saw that the senior was not only awake, but also looked at them with a very complicated look, as if she had been awake for a long time and had been thinking about life for a while.
Mao Lilan and Suzuki Sonoko then greeted each other softly and walked in carefully.
They originally wanted to put down their things, say hello and leave so as not to disturb others' rest.
Unexpectedly, as they approached, Endo Asami suddenly stretched her hand weakly out from under the quilt, patted the small round stool next to her, as if she had something to say to them.
The two high school girls looked at each other in confusion and sat down.
Conan had no place to sit, so he stood in the corner and observed secretly.
At this time, Asami Endo's two best friends had finished chatting about gossip and had left, leaving only the four of them in the room.
Asami Endo looked at Ran Maoli with a sad expression and whispered, "Thank you. I heard that you were the first one who wanted to rush in to save me... Jiang Xia must have run into the fire so decisively because he didn't want you to get into danger."
Mao Lilan: “…” I always feel that only a small part of this statement is correct, and the rest sounds weird, but I don’t know where to start to refute it.
She was just about to explain with a smile that even if she was not there, Jiang Xia would definitely go to rescue people.
However, at this time, Suzuki Sonoko secretly glanced at the documents on the bedside and found that Endo Asami was fine, just a little weak. She didn't have to worry about her emotional fluctuations making people angry. She immediately sneered in her heart.
Then, while Mao Lilan was choosing her words, she answered: "Of course, Jiang Xia has always been very good to Xiaolan!"
At the same time, she silently crossed out "Xiao Lan" in her heart and replaced it with "the two of us".
After what happened before, Suzuki Sonoko always felt that Endo Asami had some other feelings for Jiang Xia.
This made her alert, and she unconsciously developed some critical thoughts towards the almighty senior Mami, hoping to make her give up quickly.
In order to achieve this goal, Suzuki Sonoko thought that if there was an unshakable rival in love at this time, Senior Mami might retreat. But now, Senior Mami seemed to have misunderstood something, so why not guide her along this path?
So she could only say "Jiang Xia is good to Xiao Lan" but not "Jiang Xia is good to both of us". Otherwise, when there are too many people, love will become friendship, and it will be easy for a senior sister who suddenly appears to take advantage of the situation...
Suzuki Sonoko became serious, and her little calculations in her mind were no slower than those of senior Mami - whether her calculations were correct or not was another matter, but at least she was making them first and could not lose momentum.
When Mao Lilan heard what Suzuki Sonoko said, she subconsciously nodded in agreement. Jiang Xia was indeed very nice to everyone around him.
I suddenly stopped halfway through, feeling that something was even more wrong...
Asami Endo leaned against the hospital bed and felt that the two naive junior high school girls were not as easily led as she had imagined.
She took a deep breath and exhaled secretly, then followed Suzuki Sonoko's words and said softly, "Indeed, I have long noticed that he becomes very happy when he sees you."
Mao Lilan looked at her sad and downcast look, and finally figured it out. She realized that Endo Asami seemed to have a misunderstanding about her friendship with Jiang Xia, and hurriedly explained: "Actually..."
