Conan's Winery is all my vest

Chapter 253 Don't Wish Me Happy Birthday?

"Go back?" Tachibana, still a little unresponsive, confirmed again, "Now?"

"Of course, there should be a lot of time for the flight from Tokyo to Kyoto, and the journey will not take long."

Tachibana Ryosuke, who had always seemed to have no emotional fluctuations, rarely slowed down his voice, revealing a softness that can only be shown when facing family members.

"You celebrate your birthday with me and Grandpa Murakami every year, don't you?"

As soon as the words came out, Tachibana Ryosuke suddenly remembered the difference between this year and previous years.

Unfortunately, this year Tachibana has an extra vile villain, Brandy.

Tachibana Liangsuke listened to Tachibana Liang who had not spoken for a long time on the phone, and the good mood of celebrating the dog brother's birthday was instantly ruined.

"Since it's been like this in previous years," Tachibana Ryosuke stood in front of the table in the restaurant that had been graciously arranged but no one was sitting, and he confirmed with a firm expression, "then it must be like this this year, right?"

"Uh...this..."

Tachibana glanced at Conan whose neck was swollen like a dragon fruit, he hesitated, "It's past seven o'clock, isn't it a bit late..."

Tachibana was worried about throwing Conan to Brandy, and it was impossible for him to leave Conan here alone.

Just kidding, Tachibana has personally experienced Conan's ability to find trouble countless times.

Mr. Devil didn't want to cause himself a trouble that could have been avoided because there would be countless birthdays in his endless life in the future.

"So..." Tachibana Liang was about to say the words of refusal, but Tachibana Ryosuke, who guessed what he was thinking, blocked him first.

"Are you coming back, good boy?"

Tachibana Ryosuke's voice is no longer as soft as before, his voice is faint.The sentence doesn't even sound like a question, but a statement.

"I'm sorry brother."

Tachibana glanced at Conan who was eavesdropping on his conversation with Tachibana Ryosuke with his ears pricked up, and he refused apologetically, "Grandpa Murakami must have prepared carefully for a long time, right? Brother, please say sorry to Grandpa Murakami for me."

Tachibana Ryosuke interrupted Tachibana Ryosuke before he finished apologizing, "So, you're not coming back, are you?"

Tachibana Liangsuke seemed to have returned to his usual calm and introverted manner, and Tachibana Liang could not hear any strange emotions from his voice.

But Tachibana, who knows his brother well, could not have noticed the change in Tachibana Ryosuke's mood. He hurriedly explained, "Brother, I really don't want to rush back."

"Really?"

Tachibana Ryosuke asked lightly, "Are you arrested? Maybe you hand over the phone to the police officer who arrested you, and I can temporarily help you out on parole for a night to celebrate your birthday, maybe not."

It's over, my brother must be angry.

"Hahaha," Tachibana smiled awkwardly, trying to ease his brother's emotions, "Brother, when did you learn to tell jokes, it's really flattering?"

Tachibana racked his brains to come up with a word that is not very suitable in a certain sense, but seems to fit very well.

"What? So you haven't been arrested yet?"

Tachibana Ryosuke's voice that could not hear any emotional fluctuations flowed smoothly into Tachibana's ears, "That's really great, I thought that what I've been worrying about for a long time will become a reality."

"Brother." Tachibana felt a headache when facing Tachibana Ryosuke who suddenly became childish for no reason.

However, Tachibana Liangsuke on the other end of the phone seemed to have not heard it, and continued to add, ".On my brother's birthday, he didn't even have the chance to go home and celebrate his birthday with his family."

"elder brother--"

Ju Liang explained helplessly, "Don't be angry, how about I go back next week, next week there are no plans in the company that are important enough for me to personally approve, and next week I can go home and live for a whole week. "

"Okay." Tachibana Ryosuke on the other end of the phone answered simply.

However, just when Tachibana thought that he had succeeded in appeasing the idiot brother, he heard another call from the phone, and Tachibana Ryosuke asked lightly but directly to the center.

"But Director Tachibana," Tachibana Liangsuke's tone was gentle, but the question was extremely sharp, "May I ask which company you are going to talk to tonight, and what matters do you have to decide in person?"

"Of course," Tachibana Liangjie's tone was still calm, but Tachibana Liang felt uneasy in his heart.

"If this involves your company's commercial secrets, Director Tachibana, of course you can choose to refuse to answer."

As soon as Tachibana Liang heard Tachibana Ryosuke's posture of honorifics, he knew that his brother's mood was already bad to a certain extent.

"Actually, brother, I'm not in Tokyo right now."

Seeing that Tachibana Liangjie insisted on understanding why Tachibana wanted to break their established tradition, Tachibana had no choice but to tell the truth.

"Huh?" Tachibana Ryosuke made a short nasal sound suspiciously.

"Well, I'm actually in Izu now"

"Izu?"

Tachibana Ryosuke slowly repeated the place name.

"Yes, er, the sea bathing here in summer is very attractive, isn't it?"

Ju Liang tried his best to make his tone sound lighter, "Brother, you should really try it if you have time."

"Sea bathing?"

Tachibana Ryosuke seemed to have thought of something, his voice suddenly turned cold, "Don't tell me you went to Izu with Brandy."

"Uh..." Tachibana tried to appease Tachibana Ryosuke, who had a headache when he encountered something related to brandy, "That's right, but now we."

"Dududu-"

"elder brother??"

Before Tachibana finished speaking, he was caught off guard by the notification that he was hung up from the phone.

Ju Liang was always the only one who hung up the phone first, and Ju Liang, who had not been hung up by his brother, stared at the phone screen for a long time before reacting.

"Happy birthday?"

Conan, who had been trying hard to eavesdrop on Tachibana's phone call, accidentally met Tachibana's eyes, and Conan, who was caught eavesdropping, said with a smile.

Tachibana's response was a meaningful stare.

Six hours later.

"Boom—.Boom—"

The wall clock at the intersection of the dining room and the living room rang twelve o'clock at night.

"Master?"

After Tachibana Liangsuke notified the servants that there was no need to continue preparing the dinner, he ate two mouthfuls of dinner and went upstairs to sleep.

Butler Murakami has always had a short sleep, he habitually got up at night, and when he was about to come to the living room to get some water, he accidentally found Tachibana Ryosuke sitting stiffly on the sofa.

"How are you?" Why haven't you slept yet?
Before the housekeeper Murakami finished speaking, the sound of the door attracted the attention of both of them at the same time.

Tachibana, who suddenly appeared at the door, turned on the chandelier casually.

He looked at Tachibana Ryosuke who looked at him in shock, with apologetic and gentle smiles, "I don't know if it's too late for you to wish me a happy birthday now?"

　The twelve o'clock clock, Tachibana who came late, and the birthday wishes that are still valid even though they are destined to be late.

　　Although I said it last night, and it's past twelve o'clock now, if the book friend hadn't reminded me, I would have almost forgotten Mr. Devil's birthday when I was so busy, so——Happy birthday, Liang Zai!

　　Sorry, good boy!

　　But as compensation, Tachibana Ryosuke will accompany you to make up for a missed birthday dinner!
　　The good news is that since then, Mr. Devil's birthday is no longer an empty number that no one cares about.

　　Thanks to Guanqi Huaqin, Ru, Dark Knight, and Xi Yan for their rewards!
