Chapter 468 [Extra] Valentine’s Day (6)
"Mr. Maori. Um, Uncle Maori."
Lin Xinyi was like a child who was forced to pay New Year's greetings to strange relatives, and he had an uncle in his mind.
He was dragged home by this uncle with great enthusiasm.
He felt that the atmosphere was a bit strange.
But he still said hello politely:
"Aunt Fei, you are here too."
"Yeah" Fei Yingli's eyes were a little complicated:
Lin Xinyi didn't go to accompany his girlfriend on Valentine's Day, but went to Xiaolan's home alone.
This is enough to explain his attitude.
If he can clearly draw a clear line with his current girlfriend, then entrusting his daughter to this man may be a good option.
After all, no matter how problematic Lin Xinyi is, he is still better than an "underage Kudo Shinichi"!
Such a compromise and reconciliation in my heart
Fei Yingli's attitude also gradually changed:
"Come on, Shinichi, please sit down."
She smiled warmly and brightly at Lin Xinyi.
She is not at all like the strong and aloof undefeated queen she usually is.
Lin Xinyi is like the handsome male protagonist in a marriage-promoting sketch who comes to propose marriage. As soon as he shows up, the "parents-in-law" completely put a red cross on their daughter's former childhood sweetheart. When they see him, they are filled with joy:
"Shinichi, you came just in time."
"We just wanted to have a good chat with you about Xiaolan's situation!"
"Miss Maori?" Lin Xinyi was slightly startled.
What's wrong with Mao Lilan? Do you have to talk to him?
"well"
"We don't speak the same language as our family, so I won't hide some things from you."
"Yesterday Xiaolan said that she and Conan were actually because..."
Mouri Kogoro was about to lower his voice and honestly tell his chosen future son-in-law about his daughter's mental state.
His precious daughter's "mania" broke out again:
"dad!!"
"Stop going around saying weird things!"
Miss Lan clenched her fists loudly again.
His cheeks were pink with shame and anger, and his skin was as hot as fire.
"Mr. Lin, come with me."
"I have something to tell you."
Mao Lilan couldn't help but rush up and grab Lin Xinyi's arm, wanting to take him away from her big-mouthed father.
"Hey, Xiaolan, wait."
"I haven't finished what I said yet."
Mouri Kogoro subconsciously wanted to get up and keep Lin Xinyi.
But Fei Yingli patted his shoulder gently and sent him a suggestive look.
"this"
Mouri Kogoro quietly realized something:
The daughter was resistant to the parents' concern in every possible way, but she was willing to talk to Lin Xinyi about her troubles in private.
Doesn't this mean that their relationship is unusually close?
Okay. It seems that Lin Xinyi really has something to offer!
Mouri Kogoro increasingly felt that there was hope for his daughter's recovery.
So, in the old father's strange eyes full of joy and expectation.
Mao Lilan bravely pulled Lin Xinyi aside, allowing him to temporarily get rid of the two overly enthusiastic parents.
"How does it feel?"
"Uncle Maori is a little weird today?"
Lin Xinyi finally had the opportunity to express his inner feelings:
"The way he felt when he talked to me"
It felt like I was entertaining my own son-in-law.
But this is impossible.
It’s not like Uncle Maoli didn’t know he had a girlfriend.
And until the trip to Karuizawa a few days ago, Kogoro Mouri had been guarding him like a thief, warning him to keep a distance from Miss Mouri.
How could this uncle regard him as his son-in-law?
It must be an illusion.
So why is Kogoro Mouri suddenly so enthusiastic about him?
Lin Xinbai was puzzled.
But Mao Lilan whispered to him with an embarrassed look:
"Mr. Lin, I think"
"My dad just talked to you like that, maybe because he wanted to ask you for help."
"Oh? How can I help you?"
"Please help me see a doctor."
Miss Mori hesitated as she spoke.
She bit her lip gently as she spoke, and the pink color on her dimples was very attractive.
But only she knows that this is actually a high fever caused by social death:
"Ever since I accidentally revealed Conan's identity yesterday, he has treated me as a delusional lunatic."
"Before you came here today, he had already sent my mother to see me."
"Now when you come here, he drags you to discuss 'my situation'."
"I think he must think my condition is serious and wants you to help me see a doctor, right?"
"Are you here to see me for medical treatment?"
Lin Xinyi's expression became very strange:
"But I'm a medical examiner, not a psychiatrist."
"Why did he find me?"
Although as a forensic medicine student, psychiatry is a required professional course.
But just like all college students, they will learn one or two courses that they will never use in their work.
Lin Xinyi is a forensic scientist of the Criminal Police Team, and he does not work in the Forensic Identification Center.
This mental evaluation is not his job at all.
As time went by, he naturally forgot all of this knowledge.
"Why would Mr. Mori ask me, a forensic doctor, to treat you?"
"Isn't this appropriate?"
"Because he doesn't understand anything!"
Mao Lilan sighed depressingly:
"My dad read the book "Forensic Psychiatry" you gave me, Mr. Lin, and he probably thought that forensic doctors are also experts in the field of psychiatry."
"He felt like he knew everything after reading the book, and he kept making random diagnoses on me."
"If this continues, the consequences will be disastrous."
Mao Lilan is not stupid.
She knew that if she did nothing, she would just let her father's worries ferment.
When Mouri Kogoro is deeply worried about his daughter's condition, he might really take some more extreme treatment measures for his daughter.
For example. Send her to a mental hospital.
"So, Mr. Lin."
"I want to ask you a favor-"
"Just pretend that you agree to help me see a doctor."
"Then I can say something nice in front of my parents to make them put their minds at ease for the time being."
Mao Lilan’s proposal is actually good:
The biggest problem she faces now is that she cannot explain the "special relationship" between herself and Conan.
The excuse of "insanity" can reasonably fill this loophole.
Just be crazy.
It's better to be a lunatic than a pervert.
As long as she's not too "crazy" and her family doesn't worry too much, just send her to a mental hospital.
And this requires Lin Xinyi to help:
Anyway, Maori Kogoro didn't understand anything. He could pretend to be inscrutable and take over the work of diagnosing and treating Maorilan.
Now that Lin Shinichi, a professional "psychiatrist", is taking care of his daughter, Mouri Kogoro will definitely not think about sending her to a mental hospital.
Then, it won't be long.
Mao Lilan can gradually return to "normal" under Dr. Lin's treatment.
And the dark history of falling in love with a primary school student is no longer a dark history - it is just a mistake made unintentionally by a poor patient when he was sick, and there is nothing to blame.
"This is indeed a good idea."
Lin Xinyi nodded deeply in agreement:
Doing so can not only continue to cover up Conan's secrets, but also help Mao Lilan escape the crisis of social death.
What a good strategy that kills two birds with one stone.
"Miss Maori, don't worry——"
"I helped you with this!"
"How about it."
"Xiaolan, what did she talk to you about?"
Lin Xinyi had just finished whispering to Mao Lilan.
Mouri Kogoro couldn't wait to greet him again.
Fei Yingli was more reserved, but her eyes were equally nervous and curious.
"Nothing." Lin Xinyi dealt with it perfunctorily.
Then, without waiting for the other party to ask further questions, he quietly put on a deep and serious expert aura and grabbed the topic with a solemn expression:
"Uncle Maori, Aunt Fei."
"I have to have a good chat with you about Miss Mori and Conan."
"What, what's wrong?"
Mouri Kogoro was nervous for a while:
When the relationship between his daughter and Conan was exposed yesterday, Lin Xinyi was also present.
Wouldn't this "future son-in-law" become disillusioned and stop pursuing his daughter just because he found out that his daughter was a pervert who liked elementary school students?
"Shinichi, I have to make this clear to you."
"Xiaolan is actually a good child. It's just that she was hurt too deeply by that bastard from the Kudo family, and she has been in some mental condition recently."
Mouri Kogoro made a heartbreaking complaint.
As he spoke, he sighed deeply and cast an expectant look at Lin Xinyi:
"Now that Xiaolan is sick, you are the only one who can help her get rid of her psychological shadow."
"If you don't leave her alone, I really don't know who to ask for help."
"What are you talking about?"
"Miss Maori is sick, why should I just sit back and watch?"
Lin Xinyi expressed his attitude righteously:
"Uncle, auntie, please relax."
"I am also a professional doctor. With me taking care of her, Miss Maori will definitely return to normal soon."
"That's good." Mouri Kogoro and Fei Yingli looked at each other:
Even though Xiaolan is crazy, she still refuses to leave her.
This child is indeed different from the irresponsible Kudo who disappeared.
This Shinichi is reliable!
Both parents saw the same word in each other's eyes - satisfaction.
Lin Xinyi was unaware of this and just started performing according to the script he had discussed with Mao Lilan:
"Actually, you don't need to tell me, uncle and aunt, I already know these things."
"Miss Mori told me that herself."
According to Mao Lilan's request, he began to downplay the seriousness of his "illness" as a psychiatrist:
"Uncle, aunt, you are actually a little too worried."
"Miss Maori's illness is not as serious as imagined."
"She even knew what kind of delusions she had, and she could clearly describe her symptoms to me and ask for my help."
"Speak professionally."
“Speak in professional terms”
The half-hearted Dr. Lin fell into deep thought.
"Does the patient still have 'insight'?"
Mouri Kogoro asked tentatively.
"Yeah!"
Lin Xinyi breathed a long sigh of relief:
"This is called having 'self-awareness'!"
"."
"Ahem." Dr. Lin blushed: "Anyway."
"Since Miss Maori still has 'insight', it means that her condition is actually not that serious."
"She doesn't have any long-term mental problems. She may have just gotten emotional at the school festival that day and accidentally went insane due to some kind of stimulation."
"This is the case."
"Well, that's what it's called"
"It's called acuteness."
"Acute stress psychosis?"
Mouri Kogoro tentatively answered again.
"Hey, that's right, that's it!"
The pair of sleeping dragons and phoenixes discussed each other.
But he really discussed Miss Maori’s condition:
"This kind of acute stress psychosis is a 'transient' mental disorder caused by intense stressful life events."
"As long as it is treated promptly and the prognosis is good, it can completely return to normal."
"Be careful not to get any more stimulation. It won't have any impact on your future life."
"Anyway"
After discovering that the other party really didn't understand anything, Lin Xinyi gradually became more confident and fluent in speaking.
He is like a salesman selling computers in a physical store, trying his best to deceive newbies:
"In short, this disease is just like a fever. The fever will basically heal on its own after two days."
"Uncle, aunt, don't worry."
"Don't even think about sending Miss Mori to a mental illness."
"That will only increase her psychological pressure and make her feel that she is abnormal and that she is mentally ill - which is not good for her condition!"
Lin Xinyi gave a professional and detailed explanation.
After talking to Mouri Kogoro and Fei Yingli, their brows relaxed, their worries melted away, and they felt a lot more relaxed.
"That's good."
"That puts us at ease."
Mouri Kogoro breathed a long sigh of relief.
But he did not completely relax his vigilance:
The fact that my daughter was stimulated and fell ill this time shows that she still has the root of the disease in her heart.
The root cause of this problem is obviously Kudo Shinichi.
If the root cause of the disease is not eliminated, even if my daughter gradually returns to normal over time, there is no guarantee that she will fall ill again in the future.
"Xiaolan's illness still needs someone to take care of her."
"Only by ensuring that she completely gets rid of the psychological shadow left by that bastard Kudo and that she will not get sick in the future can your concubine and I feel at ease."
"And this mission."
"Shinichi!"
Mouri Kogoro patted Lin Shinichi's shoulder affectionately:
"But I have to leave it to you."
"You are Xiaolan's 'friend' and a doctor who understands psychiatry, so you must take good care of her!"
"Don't worry!" Lin Xinyi nodded along with the flow:
"With me by my side taking care of her at all times, she will definitely not get sick again in the future."
"Yes." Mouri Kogoro nodded with satisfaction.
But as a father, seeing that the daughter he had raised was about to be entrusted to the hands of another man, he couldn't help but worry about the gain and loss.
So he said angrily:
"Boy, now you have promised to take good care of Xiaolan!"
"If anything happens to her again in the future, I'm going to cause trouble for you!"
Lin Xinyi: "."
Good guy.
The attitude towards seeking medical treatment is so bad.
After so many years as a forensic doctor, this was the first time that someone wanted to make trouble with him.
"Don't worry, Uncle Maori."
Lin Xinyi took the trouble to give his guarantee again:
"I promise to take care of Miss Maori's health!"
"." Fei Yingli and Mouri Kogoro both fell silent.
After a short and tacit silence, they seemed to have finally made up their mind. They raised their heads in unison and smiled at Lin Xinyi with relief and satisfaction:
"Okay, our daughter"
"I'll ask you to take care of me from now on."
Today’s update. I’ve been holding back this update since morning until now and I really can’t write anymore.
