After saying that, Jiang Xia thought about it seriously and suddenly realized that if it was just herself and Suzuki Sonoko, she would always feel uneasy.
So he lowered his hands again and put his hands on the young shoulders of Conan and Haiyuan Ai: "Of course, there are these two children. They don't have to take exams, so they can play outside for a while."
Haihara Ai: "..." Although she is not very interested in traveling, since Jiang Xia wants her to stay, and then look at the stone sculpture-like Suzuki Garden...
After all, she felt a little sympathy for this female high school student who wanted to play with her friends. Haibara Ai nodded silently.
Mao Lilan hesitated for a moment and then followed up: "Actually, if I don't review before the exam, the grades I get in the end will be almost the same. I might as well stay and play for a few more days!"
Compared with the two girls who stayed because of Suzuki Sonoko, the reason why Conan nodded was even more heartfelt: he never got tired of visiting Sherlock Holmes's former residence no matter how many times, and he was even happy to let him live there for a year.
Conan: "..." As for those first-grade primary school courses, whoever falls in love will take them - if it hadn't been for the fact that a school-age child stayed at home and did not go to school, which aroused suspicion from all parties, he would have dropped out of school long ago to concentrate on doing business.
"Really!" Suzuki Sonoko looked at her two classmates and Haibara Ai in surprise.
After a while, when her eyes turned to Conan, her eyes gradually became a little suspicious: "It's just that I always feel that bringing this naughty kid who likes to run around will delay our schedule..."
Conan: "...?"
...I haven’t disliked you yet!
…
Although everyone quickly reached a consensus, Suzuki Sonoko sighed again after she was happy.
"Oh, forget it." She patted Mao Lilan on the shoulder, "I'm here to give you a surprise, not to mess up your schedule - after all, I should act according to your plan. Anyway, Britain can come at any time.
"Let's go together next time. If there are a lot of people, you can borrow my dad's plane."
As she was talking, her stomach suddenly growled a few times.
Suzuki Sonoko froze, took back the hand on Mao Lilan's shoulder, and quietly moved a few steps in a direction where Jiang Xia could not hear.
Then she raised her hand to touch her belly and sighed: "I'm so hungry. Today's airplane meal wasn't very tasty."
...This is a lie.
In fact, the dishes on the menu suited her taste very well, but unfortunately, there was a handsome flight attendant on the plane.
In front of the flight attendant, Suzuki Sonoko, who was carrying a lot of luggage, was embarrassed to order too much. In the end, she only tasted a little meal that was not hungry at all.
She had been sitting on the plane just now and didn't feel much. Now when she ran a little bit, Suzuki Sonoko immediately felt like she was reduced to a piece of paper from hunger.
When Jiang Xia heard her shouting that she was hungry, she lowered her head and looked at her watch: "The food in the airport restaurant seems to be very average. If you want to eat... By the way, I just saw a famous old restaurant on the way here, not far from here.
It’s so far away, it’s totally late to go have a meal and come back in time.”
Suzuki Sonoko didn't expect that she would have to fly back again just after landing, and her whole body felt a little wilted.
Suzuki Sonoko: "..." But the more this happens, the more you need to eat. Only when you are full can you have the energy to be sad!
And Jiang Xia is so gentle and considerate today... Of course, it's not that he is not good at ordinary times, but today Jiang Xia seems to want to treat her to dinner. In order to appease her injured little heart, he is extremely considerate. Just for this, today is not in vain.
.
The optimistic female high school student comforted herself mentally like this and quickly regained her energy.
Suzuki Sonoko waved her hand: "Let's go! I want to eat three meals a day, so I don't have to eat airplane meals on the way back."
…
Mao Lilan actually had an impression of the restaurant Jiang Xia mentioned.
She looked at her watch and felt that time was actually a little tight. If she was not careful, she might miss the plane.
But thinking about Sonoko who came all the way to join them, only to be told that the journey was over...
Mao Lilan's conscience did not allow her to sit back and watch her unlucky friend go hungry and be unable to eat delicious food.
"It's not meal time now, there should be no queue at that store." Mao Lilan thought to herself, "As long as we control the meal time, we can get back in time."
...It doesn't matter if it's a little late. She can carry her two slower running companions on her back and sprint back - although this doesn't look very elegant, but fortunately in a foreign country, no one knows her.
The group of people thought about their own things, stored their luggage nearby, and then left the airport.
…
After they left.
In a chaotic crowd.
A burly man pushed up his sunglasses on the bridge of his nose, his eyes resting on Jiang Xia as if absentmindedly.
When these young people were about to disappear from sight, Ireland took a step forward and followed them silently.
…
After Ireland left.
Deeper into the chaotic crowd.
A Tokyo graduate student who drew an ordinary face pushed up the non-existent glasses on the bridge of his nose, and his eyes seemed to rest on Ireland.
When Ireland was about to disappear from sight, Subaru Okiya took a step forward...
Then he silently retreated to his original position.
Okiya Subaru: "..." Although he has no idea who the tall man in front of him who followed him last night is, this man can survive in Uzo's hands to this day, and he is dubbed "old friend" by Uzo.
Just from the title, you can tell that this is no ordinary person.
It is very likely that he is another code-named cadre with a notorious reputation and countless blood on his hands.
Okiya Subaru: "..." Uzuo did not order him to follow Ireland, but Uzuo made it clear that he wanted to get close to Jiangxia.
However, now, Jiang Xia is followed by another dangerous cadre. If he wants to follow Jiang Xia, he must not be discovered by that person. In other words, he must follow and pay attention to that person's movements at all times.
On one side is Uzo's order.
On the other side, there is an unknown and terrifying organizational cadre.
Carefully put both sides on the scale. As soon as it was stabilized, Ireland was ejected far away from the other end of the rapidly descending scale.
The picture automatically popped up in his mind, and Subaru Okiya immediately had a result in his mind.
and!
...No matter how terrible the thing is, it can't be compared to one ten thousandth of Uzo.
At worst, try to stay away from that tall guy later. Even if you lose him in the end, you have done your best. It is better than pretending you didn't see it after seeing it, and then being held accountable by Uzo afterwards.
Thinking of this, Okiya Subaru took a silent breath, then took out the low presence he tried to maintain at various crime scenes and in front of Uzo, and followed him quietly and cowardly.
At the same time, just to be on the safe side, Subaru Okiya didn't forget to type an email and send it to his boss - since he couldn't escape, he should try to treat Uzo like one of the professors he respects and not report anything in advance.
Although this may seem like you have no independent opinion, it is better than being sullen and suddenly taking the blame.
