It was Miss Huiyuan who helped me. Please watch the VCR.

Haibara Ai has her own little thoughts.

Although Dong Ye Ning couldn't see the expression on the little girl's face, the atmosphere was there. He could feel it and had a rough guess in his mind.

Although he analyzed Haibara Ai's psychology based on objective reality, his analysis this time was very correct and not much different from what Haibara Ai herself thought.

He can't coax or comfort people.

Dong Ye Ning thought about it and chose to squeeze Huihara Ai's little paws firmly, and at the same time said in a gentle tone, "I must be a big brother today. If you dare to do anything rash, I will wrap you up like a spring roll when I get home."

Haibara Ai, who was sorting out her complicated thoughts, was stunned.

Why would a stupid policeman suddenly say something like that?

It sounds a bit weird, and not easy to analyze...

She raised her eyes hesitantly, "What I'm saying is, if you're not good at using metaphors, you can try to be more straightforward and simple."

Dong Ye Ning: "......"

Hmm...Hmm...How should I put it...

Who cares about it!

Dong Ye Ning squatted down, pulled Huihara Ai into his arms with force, and then picked her up as if she were a child.

The dazed Huibara Ai sat in Dongye Ning's arms, staring at him and blinking.

Dong Ye Ning did not avoid his gaze, but said directly, "I will accompany you from now on, even if I pretend to be your parent or your boyfriend."

"Just...just pretending?" Haibara Ai replied subconsciously and stupidly.

Dong Ye Ning frowned, "Otherwise, can I really be your parent?"

What about another identity besides being a parent?

You open your mouth and speak!!!

Haibara Ai's thoughts, which had not yet been sorted out, became complicated again.

After a moment of silence, she gently hugged Dong Ye Ning's neck, put her chin on his shoulder, and whispered, "Okay~"

You just denied being a real parent.

Now I accept your promise.

So... "pretending to be a parent" and "being a real boyfriend" are the two things you promised me.

Absolutely, absolutely...don't regret it.

At this time, Dong Ye Ning suddenly coughed twice, "Why don't you get down and walk by yourself? It's a bit heavy, and your workwear denim skirt is a bit rubbing against your arms."

Huihara Ai didn't bother to pay attention and instead increased the intensity of the hug, "No, wait until we get to the door of Mr. Kobayashi's office."

Seriously, how can she walk by herself now with wet eyes?

The shy loli was held in his arms, and all the teachers saluted her.

Soon, we arrived at Teacher Kobayashi's office.

After adjusting her mood, Haibara Ai landed on the ground consciously and took the initiative to help Dongye Ning knock on the door.

"Please come in."

Dong Ye Ning pushed the door open and walked in.

Seeing his expression, Mr. Kobayashi pushed his glasses and was stunned for a moment, "You are... I remember you are Officer Higashino, right?"

Teacher Kobayashi couldn't help but get nervous and stood up in a hurry, "Officer Higashino, are those kids Conan causing trouble again?"

"Really... I've already told them everything, why are they still hanging around the murder scene all day long?"

As she spoke, she suddenly looked up, "Could there be a murder case in the school?!"

Kobayashi Sumiko is worthy of being a teacher. Her mouth and thoughts are almost synchronized, and she speaks a long string of words like a machine gun.

Dong Ye Ning interrupted quickly, "No, no, I'm here as a parent this time."

He glanced at Huiyuan Ai beside him and said, "I am Ai's brother, a legal brother. I have completed the formalities before, but due to work reasons, I have not had time to come. I am very sorry."

Although Kobayashi Sumiko was confused as to why Haibara Ai suddenly became Tono Ning's sister and the law also recognized it, it was good that no case happened.

If some inexplicable murder happens in this school, the enrollment rate of Teitan Elementary School will probably be greatly affected.

She breathed a sigh of relief, "So that's how it is. It's okay then."

What follows is some daily courtesies and communication about work and parental responsibilities.

Dong Ye Ning listened very seriously. He was not pretending to be a parent, but he had to take the responsibility.

The two chatted for about twenty minutes. During this time, Haibara Ai chose to remain silent unless necessary and stared at Dongye Ning intently.

Anyway, the more she looked at Dong Ye Ning, the more she liked him. He seemed so handsome no matter how she looked at him.

Moreover, Dong Ye Ning's serious look now also let her know that he was a very responsible man. Even if it was something that required too much attention, he still took it seriously.

Character is always the first criterion for choosing a spouse.

...

"That's pretty much it."

Kobayashi Sumiko glanced at her watch. "It's about the same time now. Has Officer Higashino asked for leave today?"

Instead of wasting time explaining why you have time today, it is better to just admit it.

Dong Ye Ning nodded, "Well, I won't be absent in the afternoon."

Kobayashi Sumiko looked at Huihara Ai and smiled gently, "That's good. Now let's go to the school theater together. The children's stage will be held in the afternoon. Each class has rehearsed a stage play to perform."

When she heard the stage play, Haibara Ai remembered that she still had to perform on stage later.

Oh my god, I suddenly feel shy, what should I do?

It doesn't matter if I perform for others, but Dong Ye Ning is here now!

Then...then...just perform well for that stupid policeman.

At the same time, Haibara Ai was also very glad that she did not choose to play any corny scenes with Conan.

Even though it was just a momentary impulse, the stupid policeman would probably be jealous too, right?

The little Loli secretly glanced at Dong Ye Ning, then quickly looked away.

Come to the school theater.

The three little ones, who were so anxious that they were sweating profusely because they couldn't find Haibara Ai, finally put their minds at ease and ran over to take Haibara Ai to the backstage.

Conan's focus is not on Haibara Ai, but on Higashino Ning.

In his opinion, it was normal for Haibara Ai to suddenly stop performing. After all, it was indeed shameful to perform in a stage play like a child, and he himself had thought about quitting several times.

But it was completely unexpected that Dong Ye Ning would come here today.

He walked closer and said in a normal tone, "Officer Dongye, how did you find time to come here?"

Dong Ye Ning lowered his eyes, "Because I just happened to have time."

Conan: "..."

You're at it again!

He pursed his lips and continued to ask, "Isn't the recent search team protecting Councillor Tunkou?"

Conan got the news from Haibara Ai and learned that Tono Ning had a mission recently and could not go home often.

After the two of them discussed it and analyzed the news, they concluded that Tono Ning should be carrying out the mission of protecting Tsunoguchi Shigehiko.

It’s a pity that Mr. Ke has been held up by the three little ones these days and has no time to investigate Kenzo Masuyama, let alone look for the man named Shibata.

He planned to ask Dong Ye Ning to see if this rather steady police officer had found out anything.

Therefore, after Dong Ye Ning responded with a plain "hmm" again, he continued to ask.

It’s not that Higashino Ning didn’t want to talk to Conan, but he really had nothing to say.

He sighed, "I've been so busy with tasks lately that I don't have time to investigate. You should do your holiday homework on your own first. You're not a normal kid anyway, so keep going."

As soon as these words came out, Conan immediately understood.

Under the timely cover of Haibara Ai, Tonino Ning did not guess his true identity, and even still regarded him as just an ordinary elementary school student.

Hiss~~You trust that guy Huihara too much!

So you believe everything she says?

"Conan, come here quickly!"

After hearing the call from the three little ones, Conan thought about it and decided to leave. After all, there was nothing to follow up.

Next is to watch the performance.

Higashino Ning was sitting in the audience, constantly being pressured by nagging parents, who said that he was irresponsible and that Haibara Ai was just suffering in his home.

Fuck... Never mind, I won’t say any dirty words.

You really are the lovely people that I protect, Le.
