Chapter 62: Strange Number

Help Dr.?

I'm too lazy to expose you.

Dong Ye Ning pretended to be surprised, "Is there such a thing? I'll go to the Metropolitan Police Department tomorrow to check."

He crossed his legs, "It shouldn't be a case in the Tokyo area. I don't seem to have any impression."

Huiyuan Ai didn't want Dong Ye Ning to know that she had been away that night. It would be troublesome to explain, so she said a few words half-coquettishly and half-foolingly.

Dong Ye Ning didn't pursue it.

He was about to ask who would take a shower first, but suddenly received a call on his mobile phone.

It was an unfamiliar number.

Huiyuan Ai habitually raised her eyes and stared, and Dong Ye Ning also looked at the phone with a little confusion.

It should be said or not, this call made him think of the organization.

Answer!

"Hello, is this Officer Dong Ye?"

Hiss~~ This voice!

Dong Ye Ning moved his back to make himself more comfortable, "Well, who are you?"

"I'm Kudo Shinichi."

The bathroom late at night is Conan's domain.

He held the bow-tie voice changer, as if he had found his former self. His tone was relaxed and casual, and he also revealed the kind of confidence that existed all the time.

"Officer Higashino wanted to rent my house, didn't I? I heard Conan say that. I wonder if you have changed your mind now?"

After finishing the record in the afternoon, Higashino Ning asked him and Dr. Agasa about this matter in person, hoping to contact Kudo Shinichi.

At that time, he naturally couldn't give an immediate response, and he waited until now to finally find a suitable opportunity.

Xiaolan has fallen asleep, and Uncle Maori's snoring is even louder.

Now it's completely fine to make a phone call quietly.

After hearing the affirmative reply from the other end of the phone, Conan continued:

"I probably won't have much time to come back for a while in the future. The house is empty anyway, so it's no problem to rent it to Officer Higashino."

"But can you tell me why you chose my house?"

"After all, I didn't post a rental notice. I was quite surprised to hear this news. I wonder if Officer Higashino can satisfy my little curiosity."

This reminded Higashino Ning.

According to the timeline of science, Kudo Shinichi has not disappeared for too long.

He asked directly if he could rent a house, as if he was sure that Kudo Shinichi would not come back for a long time in the future.

As a very sensitive detective, it is normal for Kudo Shinichi to be suspicious.

If you really want to say it, Conan's suspicion and probing are all very restrained now.

If it were someone else, Conan would definitely arrange the tracking investigation package directly.

Dong Ye Ning's thoughts were flying, "The reason why I want to rent your house is mainly to facilitate my current nominal sister."

He rubbed Huiyuan Ai's head while saying, "I don't know if you have heard that there is a child named Huiyuan Ai in my family. She stayed at Dr. Agasa's house for a while a few days ago."

"Considering that I am usually very busy with work and may not be able to take good care of her, and her classmates like Conan and Ayumi often go to Dr. Agasa's house to play."

"So, I think it might be a good choice to live near Dr. Agasa's house."

The loli didn't let him continue to pat her head.

Dong Ye Ning had no choice but to pull Huihara Ai into his arms and tidy up the ahoge on her head.

There was no way, his hands were a little busy when he was on the phone.

His words made Kudo Shinichi and Huihara Ai a little silent.

Especially Kudo Shinichi.

Since you want to be neighbors with Dr. Agasa after all the twists and turns, why did you take Huihara Ai away in the first place? !

Isn't this a pure waste of time!

And what Huihara Ai was thinking in her heart was... her love brain seemed to start working again.

Because she thought Dong Ye Ning was really considerate!

From the perspective of taking care of children, Dong Ye Ning was indeed trying his best to find a way to give her a suitable and comfortable environment.

Kudo Shinichi couldn't say what was wrong with Dong Ye Ning's reason.

He just felt that the other party was a little evasive.

Without knowing for sure that I had not released any house rental information for a long time, you directly said that you wanted to rent my house, but there was no explanation at all!

At this time, Dong Ye Ning spoke again.

"Kudo-san, I always feel like you're in some trouble now."

Gray Hara Ai: "!"

Conan: "!!!"

Sitting on the toilet, Conan clenched his toes and laughed, "Officer Higashino, what are you talking about...haha..."

Higashino Ning changed his hand to hold the phone, and also changed his hand to continue petting the cat...no, petting the loli——Now Gray Hara Ai is sitting completely in his arms.

He licked his lips.

"Don't rush to refute."

"It is said that you have been handling important cases outside during this period, right? But in fact, I haven't heard any relevant news in the police system."

"If it is a very high-level case that is very difficult to solve, then you are also in trouble, right?"

"So I thought, since you can't come back in a short time, and I just need it, why not try to contact you to rent the house."

"You know, Kudo-san, I have always admired you and regard you as the supreme king of the detective world. You don't have to doubt that I am really your number one super fan."

The scumbag Conan in the toilet has changed from listening carefully to laughing silently.

You can never say such words!

He interrupted and said, "Stop, Officer Higashino, um... how should I put it, your speculation is indeed correct. I can't get away from a very important case in a short time."

"But I think your words later are a bit redundant, or do you have other intentions in saying these?"

Silence took the initiative to interject.

Huihara Ai also leaned on Higashino Ning's chest with her head raised, quietly waiting for the answer.

For a long time.

Higashino Ning spoke.

"Kudo-san, I want to use your house for free."

Huh? ? ?

Free?

"That is... in terms of rent... um... I hope I can charge a little less."

Oh~~~ so that's it.

Huihara Ai silently gave a thumbs up!

Good job, you know how to save money!

Conan smiled and shook his head, "In that case, please bring the little sister named Huiyuan Ai to stay for free, Officer Higashino."

"However, matters such as room maintenance will be left to you."

Nice!

Higashino Ning released a lot of excitement, "No problem, I will take good care of your house."

Then there was some small talk, such as how to pay the water and electricity bills.

After explaining, Conan took the initiative to hang up the phone.

However, his communication journey is not over yet, he has to call his parents to talk about it.

Higashino Ning also easily threw away the phone and let out a long breath.

Because Huiyuan Ai was pressing on his chest, it took a little effort to breathe again.

Then, he said with emotion:

"Xiao Ai, we have a home now."

"Hmm...Hmm?!"

The little girl who was planning to enjoy the human flesh cushion suddenly opened her eyes and complained, "What you said is really weird, it sounds so awkward, I suggest you say it again."

"I won't."

Grayfield Ai: "..."

You are using all your rebelliousness on me, right!

I won't play with you anymore!

The little girl jumped onto the wooden floor angrily, and said in a heavy tone, "I'm going to take a shower!"
