Judging from the effects of the medicine alone, reversing aging is something countless people dream of, so it can't be considered a drawback at all.
"Forget it, staying at school is really boring."
Ai Haibara began to look forward to a fun vacation. "Where are you planning to take me?"
Chapter 110 Revealing One's True Feelings
How should I put it? It was quite sudden.
Ai Haibara's question left Higashino Ning completely stunned.
The reason for being stunned was not because I hadn't thought of or couldn't think of where to go.
Instead, he suddenly realized that it was a really bastard thing for him to give Ai Haibara an expectation out of thin air and then not fulfill it.
It is foreseeable that he will be busy running around during these three days of holiday because of tomorrow's events, and there are many things to deal with, including the wrap-up.
Whether it's the death of Kenzo Masuyama or the death of Shigehiko Tobuchi, these events will make the news.
Given Ai Haibara's intelligence, she could easily guess the true purpose of his so-called request for leave today.
Higashino Ning had to remind himself once again that the Ai Haibara he was facing was very different from the original Ai Haibara.
This Sherry will actively embrace beauty, and when she sees Gin, she won't be so frightened that she loses her composure, but will calmly and secretly observe him.
The other party even chose to expose themselves in front of him, entrusting him with all their trust without reservation.
But now he's thinking about creating a life for Ai Haibara.
Is the little girl some kind of puppet that he can manipulate at will?
Can Ai Haibara really accept these arrangements made in the name of concern?
A series of thoughts overwhelmed Higashino Ning, leaving him dizzy and disoriented.
Seeing that the car showed no sign of leaving and the clueless policeman was also standing there dumbfounded, Ai Haibara couldn't help but feel nervous. "Um... it's okay if you haven't decided where to go yet."
She tried to keep her tone light, "We can think about it after we get home, in the surrounding area, or somewhere a little further away."
"By the way, you must be very, very tired these past few days. We can have a good rest at home tomorrow. Anyway, we have plenty of time, five days in total!"
Miss, you are so beautiful.
Dongye Ning stopped dwelling on it and said directly, "There's another reason why I helped you ask for leave."
He spoke very seriously, and his attitude changed very suddenly before and after leaving school, coupled with what Ai Haibara herself had just said.
The little girl's heart sank, and she said in a wronged tone, "Are you... really going to abandon me...?"
ha?
Higashino Ning's expression instantly cracked. "There's absolutely no way I could abandon you! How did you even come up with that idea?"
It's a nice remark, and it might even be considered romantic, but it just sounds a bit awkward.
Ai Haibara blushed slightly. "Then why are you suddenly acting like this...?"
Higashino Ning sighed, "Tokuguchi Shigehiko is going to attend a memorial service organized by Masuyama Kenzo tomorrow."
"Kenzo Masuyama is very likely connected to that organization, and the person or group that attempted to murder Shigehiko Tomoguchi has not yet been found."
"Therefore, I suspect that the organization might assassinate Shigehiko Tonguchi at the memorial service."
As soon as he said that, Ai Haibara understood.
"So you asked for leave for me so that I could stay away from this incident?" Ai Haibara was a little unsure of what to say.
She felt the concern, but she knew she couldn't give up this opportunity that could potentially lead to information about the organization.
Edogawa was concerned about Kenzo Masuyama and the organization, and she was also paying attention.
She was even more eager to kill Gin, who had murdered her sister.
Moreover, Ai Haibara can now reasonably deduce most of what Higashino Ning was thinking.
The mission she had given herself and her love were now completely intertwined.
Now we have to bring this up again.
Should Higashino Ning really share this danger from the organization with her?
She had previously come up with many explanations to prove that even without her presence, Higashino Ning would have come into contact with the organization through Edogawa.
But if Higashino Ning cares about her, doesn't she care about Higashino Ning too?
Ai Haibara is no longer certain about her romantic feelings.
Completely winning over and taking down Higashino Ning would only add more responsibility to her.
To put it simply, because she has to take care of the child she rescued, Higashino Ning has begun to plan to deal with the organization's decision to isolate her from danger on her own.
Looking further ahead, and to say something inappropriate, if she were to die, wouldn't Dongye Ning still have to fight the organization to the death to avenge her?
As expected, she should have chosen to leave from the very beginning and decisively cut off all contact with Higashino Ning.
Snap... Snap...
At this time.
The raindrops, growing denser, began to pound against the car roof with a muffled thud, and the air, which had been slightly gray, was instantly shrouded in darkness.
The sound of the pouring rain did not calm people down this time; instead, it made them even more restless.
Ai Haibara gritted her teeth, closed her eyes, and shut the door to her heart. "I have a reason to go, but you don't."
"I'm so sorry for causing you so much trouble and danger, Miss Miyano... she no longer likes..."
Before she could finish speaking, a large hand forcefully pressed down on her mouth.
Ai Haibara suddenly opened her eyes wide, feeling as if rainwater was rushing into her eyes through the car.
"Some things can't be said just because you want to. I advise you to think it through carefully first."
Higashino Ning's tone and expression were very cold at this moment.
He looked straight ahead. "I can tell you clearly again, don't be too trusting. Even without you, I will fight that so-called organization to the bitter end."
"Am I telling you not to go now? Am I restricting your freedom? Isn't this a discussion?"
"It's really strange that you're suddenly talking to yourself like you've already made all the decisions!"
"Our relationship is very simple."
My dear, there is more to come after this chapter. Please click on the next page to continue reading. There will be more exciting chapters later!
"You said you wanted me to take you home, so I took you home."
"You promised to be my family's child, so I'm letting you be my family's child."
"But that doesn't mean I'm doing this to comply with your orders; it's just that I want to do it myself."
"Listen carefully."
"It is I, Dongye Ning, who want to take you home, and it is I, Dongye Ning, who want you to be my family's child."
"Whether I help you ask for leave or I change my mind and explain it to you now."
"My initial intention was to prevent you from getting hurt, the turning point was to prevent you from being deceived, and the final point is that I like you and want to spend some or all of my future time with you in the right way and in a reasonable relationship."
Higashino Ning slowly withdrew his hand.
“You might find this strange, but it really is strange. I can be very honest and say that my initial feeling towards you was just pity, and my decision to adopt you was just a joke.”
"But now, liking you is my firm choice. Don't hurt me, even if it's just saying things against my will, I don't want to hear it at all."
The car fell silent.
The sound of rain now can bring peace of mind.
Although Ai Haibara still looked dazed, tears had already streamed down her cheeks to the corners of her mouth.
The salty taste had a hint of sweetness.
The sudden seriousness of this bumbling police officer is really endearing.
Is the initial choice that comes from the heart truly the best one?
Just as I was savoring the moment, Higashino Ning suddenly spoke again.
"Disclaimer: The above statements were made to Ms. Miyano, who is eighteen years old. I have no strange fetishes and firmly support the bottom line of human cognition and universal morality."
You idiot~ It's Miyano-san's very soul that truly loves you...
Okay, I'm not a believer anymore.
We are simply people on the same side who are attracted to each other.
This relationship is solely about whether or not you like someone; it doesn't involve any other factors.
“Ms. Miyano... she likes you more now.”
Ai Haibara didn't wipe away her tears, but looked directly at Ning Higashino and asked, "How about we try having a soul-searching romance with her for now?"
Chapter 111 Girlfriend and Kid
Soul love...
I always feel that engaging in this so-called soulmate romance is prone to leading to illegal acts at certain times.
Higashino Ning lightly pressed the accelerator and started moving. "Sorry, I don't have any plans to be in a relationship right now. You'll have to figure out how to make me fall in love with you."
Ai Haibara's emotions shattered instantly.
At this moment, Higashino Ning quickly added, "Okay, actually I just wanted to give you time to think it over carefully and make sure you really have romantic feelings for me, rather than because of any other factors."
The sound of the windshield wipers modulated the rhythm of the rain.
He glanced at Ai Haibara and said, “You’re very emotional when it comes to relationships. You might decide to leave because of some imagined scenarios, or want to date me because of some words you’ve said. Besides, we haven’t really known each other for very long.”
"I will always leave you a way out until you are truly sure of your own heart."
