Chapter 309 The Protagonist Didn’t Come?
Higashi Yening has already been to the most stressful place in the game.
Leaving the center of power, Dongye Ning did not feel relaxed. On the contrary, there was an ominous premonition brewing in his heart.
"No...could someone come to cause trouble again?"
The first thing that Higashino Ning thought of was organization. After all, that was the case in the Twin Towers skyscraper a few days ago.
He had a bad feeling, and then the organization came.
If he hadn't seen Xiao Hei and acted immediately, he wouldn't have dared to think about the casualties Colin Steffen would cause after getting the M4, let alone the other party hiding several big mines in his arms.
"Is the organization... targeting me...?"
Higashino Ning was thinking as he walked, wondering if Hakuba was going to come and mess with him again to avenge the woman and regain his position last time.
But so far he has not seen Xiao Hei appear.
He walked around the game conference site several times today. He saw almost everything from employees to bosses, from passers-by to guests.
When a premonition raises its head, there must be a reason.
Higashino Ning will not take bullshit like "it's all his illusion" lightly.
He just didn't know who or what this premonition was pointing to.
The most reasonable target of suspicion at present is Thomas Syndora, the person who committed the crime in the original plot.
"Look again, I am really tired every day."
Dongye Ning put away his thoughts and formally walked towards where Haibara Ai and others were.
Before he even got close, the three little ones were the first to greet him.
"Officer Higashino!"
"Long time no see, Officer Higashino."
"You seem to have gained weight."
Hiss~~~
Rice Ball Head, do you know how to chat?
However, Higashi Yening couldn't say anything. After all, purely from the words, Yuantai seemed to be the one who cared about him the most, and he could even see the changes in his body shape.
But in fact, Higashino Ning has not gained weight, he is just stronger than before. With the modification of a slim suit, the whole person looks like an iron tower.
At this moment, Mouri Kogoro and others also looked over.
After saying hello in turn, Higashino Ning walked to Haibara Ai, naturally held her little paw, and then thanked Suzuki Sonoko:
"Please take care of Xiao Ai, Miss Suzuki. Thank you very much for dressing Xiao Ai up so cutely."
Suzuki Sonoko never felt worthy of this kind of gratitude. She waved her hands repeatedly, "No, no, I feel very accomplished to be able to dress up such a cute girl like Xiao Ai."
Several adults continued to chat politely.
Haibara Ai is silently dissatisfied with the average waistline.
Higashino Ning, you are really going too far!
She was obviously dressed up so beautifully today, but you just glanced at her and let her go?
Moreover, there were no mood swings in the eyes he looked at, like a polite machine without emotion.
Humph, just be polite and don't ever come and compliment me on how good-looking I am!
She got angry when Haihara Ai was angry.
However, the details of the force of her claws were still sensed by Higashino Ning.
But Dongye Ning didn't know what Haiyuan Ai's purpose was in squeezing his hand, and he just thought that the other party had something to say to him.
Well... let's wait for a while, I can't leave now for a while.
Dongye Ning looked at Mao Lilan, "Why didn't Conan come today?"
Mao Lilan smiled awkwardly and scratched his head, "Conan said he was not feeling well and decided to stay at home and rest."
Seeing that the topic came here, Hui Yuan Ai felt a little excited and jumped for joy again. The little Hui Yuan Ai in her heart shouted loudly:
"Praise me quickly! Praise me quickly!"
"I took precautions and took out this time bomb in advance!"
Dongye Ning couldn't help but frown when he heard the reply.
Okay, okay, the script has changed like this, right? Now Conan isn't even here? ? ?
So whose theater version is this?
The protagonist is not even here!
It's simply abstract!
"Higashino Police Department...what's wrong with you?"
Seeing his expression, Mao Lilan couldn't help but ask.
Mao Lilan knew that Dongye Ning knew Conan's true identity, but she didn't understand why Dongye Ning showed such an expression now.
Dongye Ning shook his head, "It's nothing, I just feel a little surprised."
Then you don't have to be surprised, because Kudo Shinichi will come soon, Mao Lilan thought to herself.
Of course you will be surprised, because you can't predict my actions, Haiyuan Ai thought.
Conan has already been mentioned, so the three little ones, especially Ayumi, naturally want to have some sex.
She felt aggrieved, "I feel so sorry that Conan is not here..."
"Well... the Young Detective Team finally had the opportunity to gather together this time. Unexpectedly, Haibara-san came back, but Conan was absent." Mitsuhiko also looked downcast.
Genta looked around, then scratched his belly, "Ah, Conan's game playing skills are so bad, there seems to be no point in him coming here, right?"
Everyone: "..."
What we are talking about now is companionship, not the quality of gaming skills!
However, Yuantai's interruptive speech can be regarded as saving the atmosphere.
Mouri Kogoro drooped his tongue and said, "What does that brat have to worry about? Hahaha."
He walked forward and bumped Higashino Ning's shoulder lightly, and said slyly: "Do you want to have a drink with Higashino Police Department with me?"
"I'm telling you, the wine here is so good that you can't stop drinking it."
Mao Lilan was unhappy when she heard this, "Dad! What if you get drunk!?"
"Don't worry, you won't get drunk from drinking premium wine." Maori Kogoro drained the wine in the glass in one gulp, and took two more glasses of wine from the waiter who passed by.
"Come on, Inspector Higashino." He handed the wine to Higashino Ning.
Higashino Ning quickly waved his hand to refuse, "Mr. Maori, I'm at work and can't drink."
"Oh, that's right." Maori Kogoro drank the glass in his left hand.
He was indeed drunk, but his mouth was still sober and he was still stubborn.
Higashino Ning looked around, lowered his head and signaled Huihara Ai, and then spoke to the others, "I have something to say to Xiao Ai, so I'll leave first."
After that, he led Huihara Ai away and asked what she wanted to say.
The little loli pouted and said angrily, "You didn't praise me for my beauty today!"
Higashino Ning couldn't help rolling his eyes, "You are afraid that others don't know our relationship, right? You are so presumptuous."
Okay, it's reasonable.
So Ai Huihara talked about how she persuaded Conan to quit.
Dong Ye Ning: "..."
Then I'll see who will lead the team when we enter the game later!
However, Sawada Hiroki is still alive, and it is not certain whether there will be a so-called "game that gambles on the fate of the next generation" later.
But Dong Ye Ning thinks that it is still possible to reveal the Ripper's sinful bloodline carried by Thomas Sindor through the game. After all, Sawada Hiroki needs to send Thomas in to gain freedom.
Dong Ye Ning lowered his eyes and was about to say something, but the indicator light on the intercom suddenly lit up.
He picked up the phone and Takagi Wataru's voice came out immediately.
"Dong Ye, Chairman Thomas asked you to protect Sawada Hiroki closely."
