Chapter 13 It’s Broken, Conan Wants Me to Be a Dog

The big brother who can't bear to see her leave...

Who?

Are you talking about me?

Dong Ye Ning continued to look out the window, "You think too much, I'm just trying to maximize the benefits. ₆₉ₛₕᵤₓ.cₒₘ"

Huiyuan Ai continued to smirk and glared.

Dong Ye Ning slowly moved out of the door.

"Okay, okay," seeing that Dong Ye Ning refused to admit it, Huiyuan Ai put her hands on her waist and said proudly: "I'll assume that you think so~"

Dong Ye Ning continued to have a cold face, "No need to assume, that's it."

Huiyuan Ai didn't want to continue communicating with this guy.

In fact, when she found out that Edogawa knew Dong Ye Ning, she realized one thing.

If Edogawa's identity was exposed, the police who were close to him would definitely not be let go by the organization.

They already knew each other, and now that she is here, it is an inevitable trend for Dong Ye Ning to become more and more familiar with Edogawa in the future.

So... instead of thinking about staying away from Dong Ye Ning, it is better to protect your identity well.

Isn't that what Kudo Shinichi did?

There's nothing wrong with her replicating it.

What a pity.

If she had known earlier that Conan would be deeply involved with the police even if he became smaller, or if she could have figured this out earlier, she would not have left yesterday.

It's good to stay at Tono Ning's house.

While trying to find ways to fight the organization, she can also tease this idiot and have a quarrel to spice up her life.

Maybe girls naturally have a basic liking for people who have helped them, or maybe Tono Ning just fits her aesthetic taste and her personality is also very suitable for her appetite for teasing people.

In short, although they only spent less than half a day together, Huiyuan Ai just likes Tono Ning very much.

Just when the two of them couldn't come up with a topic again, Ayumi suddenly pulled out a pile of specially framed paintings from under the bed.

And Conan also came back to his senses from his reasoning and thinking at this moment, realizing that there were two outsiders in the room.

It's okay for Huiyuan Ai, it's normal for her not to want to get involved after returning to a cool girl.

But what about you?

Officer Higashino!

You are a policeman!

You just stand there and watch us kids randomly search other people's rooms?

If it was Megure... No, even if Officer Takagi was here, they would have been cleared out!

We agreed to investigate together, but you just watched from the side, right?

Conan complained a lot in an instant.

Higashino Ning also understood Conan's eyes at the first time and slowly said, "Well... I think your investigation is quite formal."

"Since you can't help, it's also a kind of kindness not to cause trouble, isn't it?"

Conan: "..."

What you said makes sense, I can't even refute it!

But how can you, an adult, admit that you can't even help a child and accept it calmly!

Conan has never needed to complain to release his emotions as urgently as now.

"I have to get to know this previously insignificant Officer Higashino again."

Conan looked at Higashino Ning seriously and made up his mind secretly.

After all, he himself also urgently needs an "insider" in the police so that he can follow up the case through the back door when he encounters a case.

Officer Takagi is still a little silly, and sometimes he will speak up to stop him. He thinks this Officer Higashino is very suitable!

Why does a person's eyes change from full of complaints to full of appreciation?

Higashino Ning probably has the answer in his heart.

Well... it seems that someone wants him to be a dog.

Of course, it is only a dog in a certain sense, but Higashino Ning still does not want to be called "Higashino Police Dog" one day in the future.

Hiss~~ It's true that "Higashino Police Dog" seems to be more domineering than "Takagi Police Dog" and "Megure Police Dog".

But... still da me!

Dong Ye Ning put away his thoughts and walked forward to Ayumi's side. "Picasso's "Weeping Woman", Van Gogh's "Sunflowers", Monet's "Water Lilies"... These are all masterpieces. Although they are not fakes, they are also quite good."

The reason why he recognized them was not because he had any in-depth understanding of art paintings, but simply because they were in the art textbooks when he was in school.

As an intermittent illiterate who could read, whenever he was illiterate, Dong Ye Ning could only read books with pictures.

Therefore, brand new art books and geographical atlases became his two favorite collections.

I have never seen the originals, but I have seen photos.

I have never been to the site, but I have seen photos.

Dong Ye Ning's casual and natural attitude made the three little ones feel admiration, because this feeling of wantonly swaying unfamiliar knowledge is really cool.

And those who are still willing to think for themselves, whether adults or children, also love this feeling of knowledge raping the brain without leaving any traces.

I don't understand it, but I love to read it.

Ayumi's smile was very healing. She pointed at the last painting and asked, "Officer Higashino, what about this one?"

"Natsume Soseki." Higashino Ning and Conan said in unison.

This is a sketch of Natsume Soseki.

Shunya on the side was a little proud, "These are all drawn by my brother. He is famous for imitating famous paintings in school!"

Mitsuhiko quickly followed up and said, "Then your brother was not kidnapped to draw?"

Conan shook his head, "It's unlikely. Officer Higashino just said that although Shunya's brother draws very well, it is far from the level of imitating forgeries."

But Dong Ye Ning raised his eyebrows and pointed at the sketch, "What if the criminal only asked him to draw this one? I think this one has been reproduced perfectly."

"Only this one?" Conan was stunned, and suddenly felt that the painting in front of him had a sense of déjà vu, and it was very strong.

At this time, Huiyuan Ai walked closer with her arms folded, and said lightly: "The portrait on the 1,000 yen yen."

"That's right!" Conan suddenly realized, "This is indeed the portrait on the banknote, but... Could it be that the criminal tied him up to make him draw counterfeit money... No matter how you think about it, it doesn't seem so casual."

"Drawing counterfeit money requires high precision drawing, and it is usually done by very experienced people."

Huiyuan Ai stood on tiptoe and stretched her arms, "I just mentioned it casually. After all, there is indeed a counterfeit money gang active in Tokyo recently."

As she said, she glanced at Conan provocatively, "Why, Edogawa-san doesn't usually watch the news?"

Detective kid who loves to pretend, why are you making a fuss!

Conan only felt provocation and couldn't help but want to roll his eyes.

He really didn't read the newspaper during this period, because his uncle's family didn't subscribe to a fixed daily newspaper, and he wanted to read it before going down to buy a copy.

It just so happened that Maori Kogoro didn't want to know about current affairs during this period, but only wanted to know which izakaya's proprietress was pretty.

Seeing that the topic had been brought up to this point, Dong Ye Ning simply nodded, "Well, I have indeed been following up on a counterfeit money case these days, and a suspect was caught last night."

"Caught the suspect?!"

Conan was surprised, "Did you ask anything?"

Habara Ai was surprised, "You should not be injured, right?"

Dong Ye Ning: "..."

His decision to insist on adopting Haibara Ai was indeed correct!
