Chapter 6: Do you want ...?

Ran and Shinichi ran to the Haido City Hotel, took the elevator and went to the top floor to the restaurant. Shinichi went to the reception and asked the staff: "Good evening, I ordered in the name of Kudo." "Ah, Mr. Kudo. I'm sorry, your place is already taken, but ..." "What, that can't I'll give him my opinion !! Come on, Ran. "He took her hand and ran to his actually reserved seat. Without listening to Ran, who kept shouting to Shinichi that he should finally come back, he went to the guy who was stealing space: "What are you thinking of, guy !!" "Shinichi, take it easy. It's Heiji and Kazuha. We were a little early and had already sat down. ", Heiji explained. “Oh, I'm sorry,” he said and scratched his head, “I just thought that some fool would take my place!” Then Ran said: “Fortunately, no guy stole our place! But where we are now we can sit down and start eating right away!"Everyone agreed, sat down and took the tickets." Uh, Shinichi ?! ", Heiji said unsettled and pulled Shinichi away from the table," How do we actually want to pay for that? I don't have that much money with me! "Shinichi replied," Don't worry !! The employees will definitely accept my father's credit card. "" And your father doesn't hold that against you either? "" No, he won't even notice! Have you dressed up? "
Heiji now with a normal expression: "Well, logo, it's a special day today!"
"Really ?! We're just going to eat. Or did you have the same thoughts as me again?" After this sentence Shinichi rummaged around in his jacket pocket and pulled out a small box. He opened the said box and it showed a silver ring with gold engraving: "Shinichi to Ran". “Man, why do we always think the same thing?” Heiji also pulled out a small box and it showed a gold ring with a silver decoration.Shinichi opened his mouth and said, "Uh, that's just an idea now, but don't we want to tell the girls together? After dinner, I mean!"
"Yes, that's how we do it. Done! It won't be easy.", Said Heiji and ran with Shinichi back to her table where her future wives were sitting. "Where have you been all this time? Come on, we're going to order something. We've been waiting for you especially.", Said Kazuha.
She looked pretty good. She had a purple dress with high legs and spaghetti straps. Now Shinichi turned back to the menu and everyone ordered.
Ran ate a small salad and a rice dish with pork. Kazuha ordered the same. Shinichi also ate a salad, but with it the beef à la chef. Heiji ordered a vegetable soup with a main course consisting of a turkey with fried potatoes.
The waiting time of 20 minutes didn't seem that long to Ran as she and Kazuha got excited about her argument with her father."That's terrible. He just kicked you out?", Kazuha asked, horrified. "Yes, but I also kind of went on my own. Luckily I moved in with Shinichi!" "What, you live together now? That's cool. I wish that Heiji and I could move in together!" Then they became of Shinichi interrupted: "Just a quick question !? Do you know a certain Saguru Hakuba?" "Do you mean our Hakuba?", Ran interjected. "Yes, I know him, but why do you ask?" Said Heiji. "He's in our class now. I just wanted to know if you know him." "Of course, I know him. He's known like a sore thumb in Osaka!"
Now Heiji was interrupted by the waiter who was holding the numerous plates in his hands. He served the food. While eating, everyone continued to talk about Saguru Hakuba, which gradually became secondary, as the food was just delicious. Everyone raved about their food, claiming their dish was the best.But when the meal came to an end, the master detective of the east and the master detective of the west, Heiji, became more and more nervous. Suddenly their eyes met and strangely said the same thing: HELP !!!! Then Ran said: “Sorry, but I'll go to the toilet for a moment.” “Wait, Ran, I'll come with you too!” Kazuha called Ran and ran after her. "Why do girls always have to go to the toilet together? You can almost call that pack peeing!" Remarked Shinichi. Heiji reacted late, then nodded briefly and looked out the window again. "Do you have anything, Heiji? Are you scared?" Shinichi asked carefully. "Well, logically I'm scared, aren't you? I can't do it. When Kazuha heard my feelings for her, it was just a coincidence." she found out or not. If you want, we can say it together. If I nudge your leg, you'll start.Everything OK?! "Heiji couldn't answer because the girls came back from the toilets. They sat down and continued to talk animatedly. Shinichi found this moment very good and tried to touch Heiji 's knee when Kazuha cried out in horror:" Ouch, who was that because? "It didn't seem to bother her because she talked to Ran straight away.
To get it right on the second try, Shinichi slowly and carefully felt his way to Heiji 's knee and nudged it. Shinichi's expression now said: Come on, man! Now or never!!!!
So Heiji started: "So Shinichi and I, we wanted to say something to you, so to speak." "Exactly, yes we wanted to tell you something!", Shinichi repeated. "Yes, we wanted to ask you if ... yes, uh ..."
"Guys, stop, stop, stop! If you want to tell us something, don't stammer like that! Out with the language.", Said Kazuha.
"So the reason we invited you to this fancy restaurant here is because we want to ask you something sudden and important!""Uh, what is hard on our hearts and well, how should I put it ..."
Almost simultaneously they rummaged for the little boxes and asked
: "DO YOU WANT TO MARRY US ?????"
