Conan's Exorcist Detective

Chapter 189 Suzuki Sonoko's Gaming Talent

Although Mao Lilan tried very hard to find a way to escape.

But her actions still didn't allow her to process the crime scene in time, just like that morning.

Perhaps it was the rapid sound of Sonoko's high heels on the floor that made Xiaolan panic, or it might be because she was exhausted after just fighting.

In short, when Suzuki Sonoko's two feet were completely on the floor at the entrance of the second floor stairs.

Xiaolan was frozen in the pose of bending over to pick up the sweater that had fallen on the ground.

Of course, at this time, the only piece of equipment she had on her body was the "corroded white socks".

The two women's eyes met in mid-air.

"Clap!"

It was the sound of a forgotten lump of salad dressing accidentally falling to the floor.

The three people's attention was drawn over at the same time.

Xiaolan clenched her fists tightly, wishing she could find a crack in the ground to crawl into.

Haruhiko quickly stood up and glanced at Suzuki Sonoko over Xiaolan's trembling shoulders.

If this matter is not handled properly, the relationship between him and Xiaolan, which has just entered its honeymoon period, will probably fall back to the bottom in an instant.

And given Xiaolan's personality, it's still unclear whether she can recover from this blow.

After all, even Haruhiko felt embarrassed watching this scene.

Even though he was the culprit in this incident.

Suzuki Sonoko obviously noticed this as well, and she immediately came back to her senses from her expression of shock and disbelief.

After giving Haruhiko a resentful glare, she immediately switched to her usual carefree and funny demeanor.

"Damn it! You guys were actually playing video games behind my back?" Suzuki Sonoko was like she was watching a kindergarten kid eating delicious cake without telling her. "Ran, you're so cunning! I want to play too!"

"Eh? Wait a minute..." Xiaolan was obviously a little slow to react to the situation that suddenly turned into a strange direction.

At this time, Suzuki Sonoko had kicked off her high heels as fast as she could and ran over barefoot.

By the way, even though it snowed heavily today, Suzuki Sonoko was dressed very coolly.

Perhaps because it was Christmas, Sonoko was wearing a red and white Santa Claus costume.

Of course it's a scaled-down version.

There is a large gap at the neckline of the top, revealing a large area of ​​charming white, and the skirt is also miniskirt size.

Like Xiaolan, she was not wearing any warm tights on her legs. Her thin and white legs looked particularly slender against the backdrop of high heels, and her tall figure was like a fashion model walking on the catwalk.

The only difference is.

Suzuki Sonoko was not wearing socks, which was a foul combination of bare feet and high heels.

Logically speaking, if you walk outside wearing clothes of this thickness, you will definitely be frozen to the point of running tears and snot in less than ten minutes.

But perhaps because of the special car that was picked up by the Suzuki Group, Sonoko's feet were only slightly red from the cold.

Suzuki Sonoko's first target was, of course, the game controller on the sofa.

At this time, the best way to resolve the embarrassment is to show an indifferent attitude and fight with Xiaolan for the game controller.

When a person does something embarrassing, the best way to ease the embarrassment is to get the people around her to do the same thing.

If everyone is like this.

The embarrassment felt by the parties involved will be greatly reduced.

Haruhiko approved of Sonoko's strategy and secretly gave her a look of approval.

But when Suzuki Sonoko really held the game controller on the sofa in her hand.

He still couldn't help but gasp.

Because Miss Sonoko seemed to be deliberately taking revenge, she used quite a lot of force on her hands, and Haruhiko had to force himself not to show a grimace.

He coughed, meaning that the garden was enough.

Suzuki Sonoko didn't care at all. She just curled up on the sofa and threw her red, frozen feet to Haruhiko to help warm them.

Then she started playing the game as skillfully as a gaming geek.

Insert coins, choose a character, buy equipment, eat items, and dodge boss attacks with agile movements...

Xiaolan watched her best friend's extremely skillful operation, and her original shame seemed to fade a lot.

Since Yuanzi is like this, it seems that she is fine, right?

Xiaolan was inexplicably compelled to sit on the sofa in the living room again.

Seeing this, Haruhiko took Xiaolan's hand, held it in his palm and gently kneaded it.

Her palms were full of sweat, probably because she was nervous, and they were soft and felt good to pinch.

In this way, the two of them held hands and watched Suzuki Sonoko show her prowess.

Perhaps wanting to show off her abilities in front of Xiaolan, Suzuki Sonoko stared at the TV screen intently and worked extra hard, her fair and soft little hands dancing dazzlingly on the game controller.

Soon, Suzuki Sonoko completed the level skillfully.

The characters on the TV monitor were dancing with joy, and the settlement interface showed the time it took to complete the game, the damage inflicted on the enemy, the items picked up, and so on.

Then, the screen changed.

The game has entered the Easter egg level.

A large number of gold coins exploded from the body of the killed boss, and the gold coins fell from the sky like flowers scattered by fairies.

Suzuki Sonoko controlled the little man to run around on the TV screen, constantly using his mouth to catch the gold coins falling from the sky.

Every time you eat a gold coin, the scoreboard in the upper right corner will add 10 points.

Perhaps because of Xiaolan's presence, Sonoko performed exceptionally well and achieved a record-breaking score.

"Did you see how strong I am?" Sonoko laughed her signature laugh and wiped the corner of her mouth with the back of her hand.
"Hiccup~hiccup~"

Xiaolan glanced at the salad dressing on the floor.

He looked at Yuanzi's round belly again, which looked like he had just drunk a large glass of draft beer.

Suddenly I felt like I was still a simple child.
.
Just like that, the sudden Shura field turned into a competition of video game strength.

And in the end, Suzuki Sonoko won with an overwhelming advantage.

Xiaolan also came out of her awkward mood and returned to her usual well-behaved and docile self. However, it was still early, and the sky outside the window had not yet completely darkened. Many people had just started cooking at this time, and the Christmas-related celebrations in the commercial street were also in full swing.

and so--

How could a day like Christmas end like this?

Of course we have to wait until very late.

What's more, it snowed heavily today. A white Christmas isn't so easy to come by, so of course we have to leave deep memories in our fleeting youth. —These are Miss Sonoko's original words.

But when Haruhiko asked her how to celebrate Christmas in order to leave deep memories in her youth, Sonoko stammered and couldn't say anything.

Maybe she only had a general idea in her mind?
Seeing this, Haruhiko turned around and began to clean up the mess on the battlefield.

Mao Lilan also rushed over to help.

When Haruhiko crumpled up the paper balls and threw them into the trash can, Xiaolan took the air freshener and sprayed it at the floor where she had just stood when she and Suzuki Sonoko had looked at each other.

Suzuki Sonoko seemed to have suddenly thought of something and said loudly, "There's no need to do anything deliberately. I think as long as we are together, we will be happy!"

Haruhiko looked up at Suzuki Sonoko who was sitting cross-legged on the sofa.

I think your delay is too high?
But this silly Sonoko-san seems a little cute.

He walked over and rubbed Yuanzi's head: "Well, be good, we will always be together."

Suzuki Sonoko was not satisfied with his perfunctory attitude and bit his wrist hard.

Haruhiko screamed and grabbed Sonoko's hair at the back of her head.

Xiaolan smiled knowingly and picked up the kettle to make herself a cup of tea.
.
Because it was snowing heavily outside, it was indeed a bit difficult to go out for a walk.

Moreover, Xiaolan had just suffered a great blow and her body seemed not to have fully recovered yet.

Suzuki Sonoko, on the other hand, seemed quite energetic.

It seems that for her, being able to spend Christmas with the person she loves, her best sister, and her best sister's boyfriend is a very exciting thing.

There was a lot of noise for a while.

Suzuki Sonoko suddenly said she was hungry.

Haruhiko originally wanted to cook a bowl of noodles or something to fool her, but when Suzuki Sonoko was rummaging through the refrigerator, she happened to see a lot of hot pot seasoning and vegetables left, and she also insisted on eating hot pot.

But there is no meat or tofu in the refrigerator.

This is absolutely unacceptable to her.

You can eat hot pot in the garden without seasoning, but you absolutely cannot eat it without meat and tofu.

Haruhiko was actually very curious about how she developed this habit. Aren't young ladies supposed to be fed with expensive matsutake mushrooms and caviar since childhood?
Why do you like to eat tofu?

Haruhiko looked out the window and found that heavy snow was still falling outside. The biting cold wind looked like it would make people feel unwell.

Not to mention going out in the wind and snow to buy meat and tofu.

But before he could say anything, Suzuki Sonoko took the lead and seized the moral high ground.

"Is it impossible for me to be treated the same as Xiaolan?" Sonoko showed an expression as if the world was destroyed. "So, love will disappear, right?"

"Didn't you eat a lot just now?" Haruhiko curled up on the sofa, watching Sonoko's funny performance and teasing her deliberately.

Yuanzi's expression changed immediately, and he waved his fists: "That thing won't fill you up, it will be digested very quickly."

Haruhiko: "Tell me in detail how you digested it."

"I'm going to hit you." He picked up the high heels thrown on the ground and pretended to hit her.

At this time, Xiaolan, who was sitting on the stool next to her, suddenly interrupted and said, "That's right, Yuanzi, you burped just now. Eating too much at night will make you fat."

"Lan, why are you bullying me too?" Suzuki Sonoko looked cute with her cheeks puffed up and angry.

"No, I'm just stating the facts." Xiaolan took a sip of tea from the teacup, her expression unchanged.

After being taught a lesson just now, Xiaolan seemed to have undergone an unexpected change.

Is this change good or bad?
Haruhiko couldn't confirm it for a while.

"In that case, I'm going to let you taste my power." Sonoko bared her fangs and attacked Mao Lilan who was "sticking to the facts".

"Stop it, the tea has spilled on your clothes." Xiaolan dodged while raising the teacup in her hand high, but she couldn't stop the tea from spilling.

The two of them started playing around without paying attention to anyone around.

Haruhiko stood up from the sofa and walked to the window on the second floor of the office.

The sky was gradually getting dark, and heavy snow was falling outside, reducing visibility to a certain extent.

On the road in front of the office, the passing cars all turned on their headlights to the maximum and drove at a snail's pace of less than 20 miles per hour.

Occasionally, you'll see office workers in thick coats walking on the sidewalk, braving the wind and snow while talking on the phone. Judging by the happy expressions on their faces, the person on the other end of the line is likely their wife or child.

If there is someone worth protecting in your heart, can you still show that kind of smile even in the cold wind and snow?
Haruhiko thought for a moment and unlocked the window.

The windows on the second floor of the office are the old-fashioned ones that slide outwards, but because they have been in disrepair for a long time, they can now be pushed inwards.

Haruhiko had just opened the window a little when a strong wind blew the window wide open.

A gust of cold wind suddenly blew in.

The window hinges made a sharp whine, and the temperature in the room dropped several degrees in an instant.

Haruhiko turned around and looked at Xiaolan and Sonoko who were playing on the sofa. Even though the cold wind and blizzard were blowing behind him, he didn't feel a bit cold.

It's been less than a year since I came into this world, and I've already found someone I'd risk my life to protect.

If we have children in the future, will life be different? His thoughts began to wander, and his gaze towards the two of them gradually softened, with an unconcealable tenderness in his eyes.

"Close the window, you bastard! Are you planning to freeze me to death and run off with Xiaolan?!"

Sonoko remained in the position of being choked by Xiaolan, with half of her face exposed from above the back of the sofa, and yelled at him.

When Xiaolan heard this, she increased the strength of her hands.

Sonoko's face was pulled back under the sofa cushion.
