Chapter 258: Fall Asleep in Seconds
Chapter 258: Fall Asleep in Seconds
Not long after I quickly put on my clothes, Haibara Ai came back.
Although the little girl was also surprised and surprised by Dong Ye Ning's sudden return, she did not express it directly this time.
After hiding the urge to jump and hug your loved one for a moment, it will be difficult for this urge to reappear in a short period of time. Even if it does reappear, you will not be able to perform the corresponding actions.
"From what you described, this case seems to be quite difficult. Why did you come back today?"
Haibara Ai was busy changing her shoes and putting away her schoolbag. The little girl was full of calm and mature temperament.
Dong Ye Ning said casually, "It wasn't that difficult. We caught the man this morning. But it was indeed smoother than I expected. I thought the criminal would struggle a little longer."
Now it seems that the criminals in the original plot who were waiting for evidence despite being clearly implicated but still wanted to die really just needed someone like Dong Ye Ning to force them.
People need to be pushed sometimes, otherwise they will know that it is so easy and quick to confess their guilt.
Dong Ye Ning is speaking casually now, and Huihara Ai just thinks he is being Versailles.
There is nothing wrong with her husband being very capable, and she is very happy.
After putting down the heavy schoolbag, Huiyuan Ai moved her shoulders and walked to sit next to Dong Ye Ning. "When is the next business trip?"
She didn't look at Dong Ye Ning, but looked at the window in front of her.
She continued, "Logically speaking, even if there are many old cases, Nagano will not invite you over often."
Dong Ye Ning: "......"
Sometimes it's hard to say the words when they come to your lips.
But silence itself is the answer.
The extremely intelligent Huihara Ai immediately realized that something was wrong. She glanced at Dong Ye Ning's face with her eyes wide open, a little unbelieving, "You are not going on a business trip somewhere else soon and won't be back for several days, are you?"
Dong Ye Ning shook his head subconsciously and said quickly, "No, no."
"Huh~ Really, why are you in a daze?" Huibara Ai said angrily and reached out to pinch Dongye Ning.
But just as her little paws touched the skin, Dong Ye Ning spoke.
"I'm leaving tomorrow and will arrive in Tokyo by noon at the latest."
Huihara Ai stopped moving on the spot, and the tender flesh on Dongye Ning's waist was just under her fingertips.
She could pinch him at will, but after a pause she just pinched him lightly, raised her eyes and smiled, "Okay~ What's the case this time?"
Dong Ye Ning leaned back on the sofa and put his arm around the little girl's shoulders. "It's a case that happened in Nishitama City a few days ago. It seems that Inspector Megure and his team couldn't find a breakthrough. Under pressure, they chose to let me go back temporarily to lead the investigation of the case."
"It just so happens that I'm relatively free in Gunma, so just let me go wherever you need me."
He had intended to say it in a joking tone, but when the words came out it was in a rather calm tone.
After all...his frequent business trips for a long time is not good news for Haibara Ai, and this matter should not be treated as a joke, otherwise it will only disappoint Haibara Ai's heart that wants to accompany him.
This time, Haibara Ai was much calmer than he had expected.
She tried her best not to show her bad emotions. She put her hand on Dong Ye Ning's chin and stroked it, and continued to say, "Is that so? It might take a long time for me to come back this time, but it doesn't matter. I'm fine here."
"Without you interrupting me, I can focus on my research and try to develop the final version of the antidote as soon as possible."
The ceiling was reflected in Huihara Ai's eyes. "When you return to Tokyo, bring an antidote to Edogawa. He can use it if he needs it. Also, provide me with some human experiment data."
Dong Ye Ning nodded, "Okay, is there anything else, such as the doctor and the three little ones?"
"You really reminded me!" Huihara Ai suddenly perked up and quickly jumped off the sofa, "You should leave tomorrow, right? Then accompany me to buy some small gifts and give them to the doctor and the others tomorrow."
This is indeed a serious matter.
Dong Ye Ning also stood up immediately, "Okay, I'll go with you."
It's only three o'clock in the afternoon.
After buying the small gifts, Dong Ye Ning went to purchase a large number of ingredients and replenished the snacks and sweet drinks. He also prepared a batch of instant foods in case Huibara Ai was too busy or in a bad mood to cook and go hungry.
His behavior completely confirmed Haibara Ai's guess: this business trip would indeed be a long one.
"But...it doesn't matter. It's not something that Ning can decide on her own."
Haibara Ai has always been good at convincing herself, and she happily follows Dong Ye Ning around everywhere, and at the same time she is happy to get a new sleeping doll.
The two of them had dinner outside.
This scene also reminded Haibara Ai of Sato Miwako and others, and the atmosphere of nostalgia suddenly became stronger.
After dinner, we take a walk along the street.
It has been a while since the two of them went shopping in crowded places. Although they couldn't fit in with the crowd, they wouldn't be disturbed by the crowd.
When the crowd becomes the scenery, peace will naturally follow.
Around nine o'clock in the evening, the two returned home.
"Go take a shower first, then wait for me in the room."
As soon as she got home, Huihara Ai gave orders in an unquestionable and rejecting tone, and Dongye Ning had no choice but to do as she was told.
There's no way, the little loli is too oppressive!
In order not to make Haibara Ai angry, Tonino Ning washed carefully twice, making sure that he was really clean this time before walking out of the bathroom wrapped in a bath towel.
The results had just come out when Huihara Ai waved at him, saying like a delinquent who hadn't graduated yet, "Come here and let your sister check it out."
What the hell is inspection!
Higashino Ning refused to obey and ran away with the bath towel, causing Huibara Ai to giggle on the sofa, as if she had gained some great joy.
Girls tend to take much longer in the shower than boys.
But this time, Haibara Ai did not give Tono Ning too much time to wait.
Knock on the door and open it.
Wearing her new pajamas, Haibara Ai took off her slippers without hesitation and climbed onto the bed, and snuggled into Higashino Ning's arms very naturally.
Without waiting for Dong Ye Ning to speak, she set the theme for tonight.
"Just stay with me quietly, no need to talk."
"Sleep when you are sleepy, and dream of me when you fall asleep. If you want to leave tomorrow morning, be gentle and don't wake me up."
"Now, let's begin~"
Haibara Ai put her face on Dongye Ning's chest, swaying with the rhythm of his breathing, and listening to the rhythm of his heartbeat and daydreaming freely.
"This heart... belongs to me, it must belong to me, and it will never leave me."
Dong Ye Ning: Damn... Why am I so sleepy today? I feel like I'm going to sleep at any moment...
Half a minute later.
Huibara Ai looked up in confusion, stretched out her finger and poked Dong Ye Ning's face, her eyes full of disbelief.
"No, you fell asleep already?!"
