Chapter 26 Watching the Game

The New Year's Day activities have been scheduled, and Huiyuan Ai is secretly happy but also a little worried.

The Emperor's Cup final will be broadcasted on TV.

If she is caught by the camera, she might be recognized by the organization.

After all... she grew up in the organization.

"But the organization's people shouldn't be so idle as to watch football games, right?"

Huiyuan Ai found a reason for herself, but in the end she couldn't convince herself with "luck", and sighed in her heart, "I have to hide well when the time comes."

...

Since the three little ones came to the door, Dong Ye Ning naturally had to entertain them.

However, there were no drinks such as juice in the refrigerator, but there were still two bottles of wine, and the rest of the snacks were almost all shown off when they came back last night.

He simply stood up and said, "Everyone, come with me to go shopping together!"

This was said in a very youthful way, so the three little ones were very excited.

Huiyuan Ai was very unhappy when she saw this.

Why have you never spoken to me in this tone? !

But she also knew the reason.

It's because she has repeatedly emphasized that she is not an ordinary child, and her daily behavior is completely different from that of these elementary school students.

In this case, Dong Ye Ning will naturally no longer treat her the way he treats ordinary children.

She is respected, but at the same time she feels a little regretful.

People are probably contradictory~

Huiyuan Ai no longer thinks about it, and follows the pace of the three children and goes out with Dong Ye Ning.

The purchase is just at an ordinary convenience store.

Dong Ye Ning, who just received the bonus, is very generous, and the three children are almost crazy with joy.

However, they still uphold politeness and spend money very restrainedly, and they don't do it too outrageously.

Now Huiyuan Ai can be regarded as completely understanding that Dong Ye Ning was not stingy the day before yesterday, he just really has no money.

"Don't you need to buy what you want to eat?"

At this time, Dong Ye Ning walked up to the little girl and asked with his eyes down, and the answer he got was "I don't have a strong desire to shop."

Seeing the expression on Dong Ye Ning's face, Huiyuan Ai couldn't help but curiously said: "You seem very happy to see Ayumi and the others buying things."

"Yes, very happy." Dong Ye Ning looked at the three little ones again, "It's not just generous to them, but also to treat my childhood self."

Hearing this, Huiyuan Ai was confused, and then quickly reacted.

Dong Ye Ning should be saying that when he was a child, he also hoped to buy what he wanted in the convenience store, but he didn't have this opportunity until his entire childhood.

Maybe it's because the family has no money, or it may be because the family is strict.

If there was a role like an older brother at that time who said "You buy whatever you want, I'll pay", maybe little Dong Ye Ning would be as happy as the three little ones now.

I have to say that this interpretation is a bit depressing.

But Dong Ye Ning continued, "I'm not dissatisfied with my family's stinginess in the past. They bear the daily necessities of three meals a day, have fixed living expenses, and have random interpersonal relationships."

"When they don't have much money, they choose the latter between buying consumables and necessities. This is not a fault."

"I'm just soothing the regret in my heart at that time."

Haiyahara Ai didn't know how to respond, so she simply asked, "By the way, have you lived in Tokyo since you were a child? Where are your family?"

Dong Ye Ning shook his head, "I lived in a peaceful town in Kyushu when I was a child. My father died at sea, and my mother died of illness when I was sixteen."

He smiled at Huiyuan Ai, "The sea breeze over there is very free and relaxed. I'll take you to experience it if I have the chance."

Since Dong Ye Ning had already smiled first, Huiyuan Ai had to swallow the words like "Sorry, I shouldn't mention this" and responded with a beautiful smile, nodding, "Okay."

The three little ones' purchases were quickly completed and didn't cost much money.

It was nothing more than some snacks, drinks, etc.

After playing for a while at home, the three kids said goodbye, "Officer Higashino must come tomorrow~"

Higashino Ning smiled and nodded, and then watched Huiyuan Ai and the three kids leave together.

Lunch was eaten outside, and then the suit he rented yesterday was returned.

By the way, the three kids reimbursed him for the tickets, which was great!

Lying down in the afternoon.

No news disturbed him, and no one came to visit, which was very suitable for taking a nap.

He slept until night fell, and then he went out for a stroll and went to the nearest izakaya to get drunk.

There was nothing sad, but he suddenly wanted to drink.

Higashino Ning did not drink too much, but there was nothing wrong with using alcohol to spice up his life.

After solving a small incident of a drunk harassing a passing woman on the spot, Higashino Ning returned home drunk.

It was quite unexpected that he was given 1 reward point for helping others.

Take a shower and go to bed~

...

The next day.

Higashino Ning's alarm clock woke him up.

His mouth was dry and bitter, and his nose and throat were filled with residual alcohol.

After taking great pains to take care of his personal hygiene, he put on a light blue workwear denim jacket and went out, taking a taxi directly to the National Stadium.

The New Year's Day atmosphere on the street was very festive, and lion dances could be seen.

As a cultural vassal of China, celebrating the New Year in Japan did give me a sense of not having completely left the country.

Have you gone abroad?

Yes.

The National Stadium was surrounded by a sea of ​​people with colorful flags fluttering, gongs and drums roaring, and firecrackers blasting.

What's that saying?

When there are more than 10,000 people, there is no end.

The National Arena can accommodate more than 50,000 spectators. Now that they are entering, more than a dozen passageways are blocked like a zombie siege.

Not long after waiting at the agreed location, the Death Boys arrived side by side.

Because Sanxiao had only said so, Conan was not surprised by Higashino Ning's appearance. He just wanted to complain about why this guy's sense of existence was rising.

In fact, this is nothing. The main reason is that Higashino Ning's presence surged at the same time as Haibara Ai's entrance.

This is very awkward.

Secretly glancing at Haibara Ai, Conan smiled bitterly and said to himself, "It would be more acceptable if these two guys are really accomplices."

The three little ones greeted each other warmly, and Higashino Ning also responded enthusiastically.

The remaining Conan and Haibara Ai are much more bland.

Higashino Ning looked at Conan, "Didn't the doctor come with you?"

Conan shook his head, "Dr. Ali has a meeting to attend today."

As he said that, he curiously asked, "Officer Higashino's vacation is coming to an end soon, right?"

Higashino Ning couldn't quite get the point of Conan asking this, "So?"

Conan put his hands on the back of his head and smiled: "Because there have been a lot of news reports about Officer Higashino in the past two days, I see that many people want to see you in person, so if you find it troublesome, you might as well wear some masks and hats after the holiday. Something like that.”

You're quite a nice person.

Dongye Ning looked around and ran to a small vendor on the roadside to buy a white snapback hat.

The so-called snapback cap is actually one of the variations of baseball cap.

I haven’t seen anyone selling masks, I’ll talk about that later.

And if he really wears a mask, he always feels a bit pretentious. He is not a big star, so he can't do that at all.

Looking at Higashino Ning's back, Conan was speechless, "He is really a man of action..."

Hearing this, Haiyuan Ai glanced at Conan, "I think your tone is not very appropriate, what do you think?"

Conan: "..."
