Chapter 173 Engagement Banquet
Chapter 173 Engagement Banquet
It's day and night.
Dong Ye Ning got up yawning.
When I opened my eyes, I found Huibara Ai beside the bed.
"You really like to stare at me while I sleep."
He rubbed his eyes and said, "Tell me what you plan to do while I'm asleep. You should have figured out the pattern after observing me so many times. Next time, you should implement your evil plan."
Huihara Ai was so angry that she slapped Dong Ye Ning on the stomach, "Who is going to implement any evil plan? How can you be so malicious and speculate about others!"
She snorted. "Yes, yes, yes, I do have an evil plan. Next time I will just give you anesthesia and then hollow out your internal organs and soak your body in formalin!"
Isn't it an evil plan? This plan is evil enough.
Huiyuan Ai was very proud, "How is it, are you scared?"
But Dong Ye Ning just lay on his side and supported his head, then reached out to tidy up Huiyuan Ai's hair on her forehead, "What is there to be afraid of? That way I can be with you forever."
Huiyuan Ai: “…”
Man, you seem to be more perverted than me.
Dong Ye Ning understood the look in the little girl's eyes and chuckled, "There is an old Chinese saying, 'give someone a taste of their own medicine', that's it."
Okay, you're playing tricks, eh?
Huihara Ai leaned over to whisper in Dong Ye Ning's ear, "It's good that you have this awareness. The formalin I bought will almost arrive."
"I'll use it whenever you need it."
"Don't worry, I'm quite good at making specimens. After all, I'm an evil scientist."
As a natural born actress, the little Loli got the expressions and tone of voice just right, and Dong Ye Ning couldn't help but feel a chill down his spine when he heard it.
"Um...how about returning it?"
"I can't return it. We don't accept returns unless there is a quality issue."
"I am talking about you."
"...Aning, I think you are really tough now! You can't retreat!"
If you can't withdraw, then you can't withdraw. Why are you so angry...
Dong Ye Ning said weakly: "Then can I eat?"
"Of course!" Huiyuan Ai smiled sweetly, "I've been waiting for you for a long time!"
Hiss~~~This speed of changing face is simply abstract!
Dinner had indeed been ready for some time.
Haibara Ai wanted to reheat it, but Higashino Ning said it was okay to eat it as is.
It does feel a bit strange to eat warm dishes, but Dong Ye Ning got used to it a long time ago, and even eats his lunch box cold when he is busiest.
After dinner, Haibara Ai, like Mao Li Ran, reminded Tono Ning that she had to attend the engagement party of the Shiratori family tomorrow.
I really have to thank you for the reminder, otherwise Dong Ye Ning would have gone to the Metropolitan Police Department as planned tomorrow.
"Would you like to come with me tomorrow?"
After saying that, Dong Ye Ning felt that it was a bit wrong to ask this question, so he simply changed the topic, "Come with me tomorrow."
Both are questions, but the latter expresses a stronger desire for the other party to go along.
Huihara Ai thought about it and nodded, "Okay, it's a good opportunity to go out and change my mind. Researching the antidote recently is really a headache."
Dong Ye Ning then asked about the current progress of the antidote, and the little girl replied: "Don't ask, if you ask, it means we will be successful soon."
So progress is difficult.
wait.
If Haibara Ai hasn't developed the antidote by the time you get the qualification to exchange the antidote from your beloved concubine through promotion, then you can just exchange it directly.
I just don't know how high the price will be.
From this perspective, Haibara Ai's efforts to research the antidote have indeed saved Tono Ning a lot of "money".
...
After a short rest, Dong Ye Ning wanted to go out for a walk.
It has been raining for the past few days. Now that the rain has stopped and the ground is not so wet, it would feel nice to take a walk outside.
Haibara Ai originally didn't plan to go with them, but after hesitating for a few seconds, she put on her coat and went out with them.
The wind was a bit chilly, and the moist air was filled with chill.
But... just right.
It’s not too cold, two pieces of clothing are enough to keep out the cold, the wind blowing on your face makes you feel refreshed and comfortable, and the nasal cavity also gains more breathing space under the stimulation of the cold air.
Breathing more easily will make you feel better.
Walking on the road, Dong Ye Ning felt inner peace and mental relaxation.
Haibara Ai just followed him quietly without saying a word.
On a rainy night, I carry neither an umbrella nor a knife.
Just... pure companionship.
In the end, we chose the most comfortable way of getting along.
Higashino Ning was very grateful that Haibara Ai understood him. After all, not everyone could accept this kind of life where they often had nothing to say.
Walk and stop, pick flowers and leaves.
Go home and continue sleeping.
This is what happens after pulling an all-nighter, not getting enough sleep.
...
The next day.
Rice flower sun plaza hotel.
Dong Ye Ning was wearing a formal suit, he had a tall and straight figure and looked energetic.
Next to him, Haibara Ai was wearing a pink dress, which was quite eye-catching.
But both of them rented their clothes, which felt a bit low.
Haibara Ai insisted on not buying any clothes because she felt that these clothes would hardly be used in daily life.
She was planning to buy one or two sets for Dong Ye Ning, but Dong Ye Ning himself was not willing to spend real money to buy them.
After waiting downstairs for a while, police officers including Megure Juzo arrived and surrounded Chief Odagiri like the moon surrounded by stars.
Toshio Odagiri is a little thin, with a stern expression, and he looks quite imposing.
After greeting each other, Odagiri Toshiro lowered his eyes to look at Huibara Ai, and smiled rarely, "Your sister is indeed a gifted person, and extremely intelligent."
The most important thing for a leader is to be able to judge people.
So it was not surprising for Toshiro Odagiri to say this now. "Thank you for the compliment. Please go upstairs. It might rain later."
As a subordinate, one must not only know how to judge others, but also know oneself.
So after Odagiri Toshio showed his goodwill, Tonino Ning couldn't say anything nonsense.
The engagement party is on the 15th floor.
As the highest-ranking officer arriving this time, Toshio Odagiri continued to lead the way.
After exchanging glances with Megure Jusan, Tono Ning led Haibara Ai to Sato Miwako.
Takagi Shigeru was standing next to the other person. It seemed that Takagi Shigeru was really taking the close protection thing seriously. No matter how embarrassed he was, he chose to stay around Sato Miwako.
"Sister Sato, long time no see~"
Haibara Ai took the initiative to greet them, and her smile and voice washed away a lot of the serious atmosphere of the entire police group.
Sato Miwako couldn't help but smile, "Ai, you're even cuter today."
After saying that, she looked at Dong Ye Ning but didn't say anything.
Dong Ye Ning understood that the other party was saying that she would pay attention to her own safety and she didn't need to worry.
Tsk, this damn theater version, where did my memory go?
These are things I have seen before, so why can't I remember them?
The group took the elevator upstairs, left their names in the guest book, and then took their seats.
Since this was almost an internal police gathering, and Miwako Sato was also present, everyone was very nervous and on guard against the murderer at all times.
"This is such a serious occasion. It should be a joyous atmosphere..."
Ai Haihara said that she did not quite approve of the atmosphere-creating ability of this group of police officers.

I'm starting to update twice a day today. I have too many books to support, and my data is dropping rapidly. I'm thinking about freeing up some time to write something else. Life is stressful...
