Chapter 291 Winning the Prize
Chapter 291 Winning the Prize
Dongye Ning's thoughts are heavy because he feels that the future he is about to face is a bit too dark. He may suffer a lot and suffer a lot, and he may not be able to succeed in the end.
It was the host who pulled him out of his deep thoughts.
"Everyone, please pay attention here, the highlight of today is next."
With a snap, all the lights in the banquet hall went out, but the next second a spotlight came on.
The host stood under the spotlight and looked at the many guests in the audience, and said with a smile, "I think..."
As a result, as soon as he started speaking, the guests in the audience stopped talking.
"What the hell is going on, it scares me to death!"
"That's right. That kind of thing just happened during the day. It's a bit scary for you to do it now!"
"That's right! Turn on the lights! I want to see clearly what everyone around me is doing. This is too dangerous and scary!"
"..."
The guests were very excited.
The host on stage was also embarrassed, and the backstage staff quickly turned the lights back on.
As soon as the lights came on, the guests finally felt a lot more at ease, but they still kept looking around for fear that someone would take advantage of them.
To be honest, Dongye Ning himself was instinctively nervous just now.
This kind of crowded and dark scene is really convenient for criminals to do things.
"Sorry, sorry, we thought the matter had been completely resolved, and the legendary and reassuring Higashino Police Department was also present, so we chose to follow the original plan and turn off the lights to create a sense of atmosphere."
The host knew that he could not continue to give the guests a chance to complain now, so he quickly continued:
"Okay everyone, please cheer up."
He waved his hand, looked at the red sports car on his right, and introduced it enthusiastically.
"This is the ultimate reward of this banquet, and to get it, you only need to complete a mini-game!"
The red sports car is a Ford Mustang, a four-seater convertible.
Higashi Yening doesn't know much about cars. He knows about it because he usually pays attention to the news.
This car has been a popular product of Ford for more than ten years and has failed in the market, but now the new model has gained some momentum.
The car is quite good-looking, and as a powerful sports car, all the configurations are adequate.
Higashino Ning doesn't know if this car will still be drawn by Mouri Kogoro.
If he is still picked by the confused detective, then the other party may end his car rental career. After all, there will be no part of the building being bombed today, and this car will definitely not become a flooded car.
But it's hard to say. After all, Mouri Kogoro himself doesn't have the financial strength to own a car. Maybe he will choose to discount it after comprehensive consideration.
Dongye Ning was holding the wine glass, but the glass was not filled with wine, but with juice.
Taking advantage of the fact that no one was around him anymore, he quickly changed his position and found a relatively secluded place to sit down comfortably.
Sitting is more comfortable than standing, and lying down is more comfortable than sitting.
If conditions permit, he will just lie down.
Soon, under the arrangement of the host, everyone present played the "Mind Reading for 60 Seconds" game with a relaxed attitude.
The guests attending the meeting were all interested in participating, and this car was just the icing on the cake for them, but the reporters were very excited.
Dongye Ning thought for a while and simply closed his eyes.
You're here now, so let's get involved.
Yes, you guessed it right.
"good!"
"I didn't expect that the friends who will accurately count the seconds in the end will be Mr. Mori and the Higashino Police Department. Please come on stage!"
Mouri Kogoro was still in a daze, but then he started to get excited.
Dongye Ning himself was quite surprised.
He didn't cheat!
He didn't even really count the seconds, he just closed his eyes and took a deep breath for a while, and then raised his hand when he felt like raising it.
Naturally, the crowd was in a commotion again, and congratulations were heard everywhere.
Higashino Ning chuckled in return while looking at them, and then went on stage with Mouri Kogoro.
Since there were two people, the game started again.
This time Higashino Ning read the seconds carefully.
The winner of the new round is still him.
“Congratulations to our Higashino Police Department for successfully acquiring this roadster!”
Dongye Ning was a little excited in his heart, and he originally wanted to express it, but when he opened his mouth, he became extremely calm and indifferent, and only responded to their respective congratulations lightly.
Something is wrong with his mentality.
There is a very silent feeling.
Dongye Ning can also guess the reason. It is just because of the upper management of the organization, and there is no other reason.
The subsequent banquet process was very boring for Higashi Yening.
At eight o'clock in the evening, the banquet ended on time, and nothing unnecessary happened.
Tokiwa Mio originally invited Higashino Ning to have lunch with him tomorrow to express his gratitude, but Higashino Ning didn't want to stay any longer and simply refused.
Back at the police station, Dongye Ning lay on the bed after taking a shower, staring at the ceiling quietly, thinking about nothing and doing nothing.
He will not sink like this, he just needs a little mourning for a while.
As humans, there are always some emotions that need to be vented.
For this kind of emotional processing, you can either find someone to resolve it or resolve it yourself.
Higashino chose the latter.
Anyway, it's not a big deal, and it's not like he's in despair. Anyway, he himself is the sun that continues to shine.
20 minutes passed in a flash.
Dongye Ning turned over and his phone slipped out of his side pocket.
He took it over and took a look, only to realize that Haiyuan Ai had sent him a text message more than ten minutes ago.
[Can you please talk to me? 】
When the text message came, he was deep in meditation, so he didn't notice it.
Haiyuan Ai, what happened?
Dongye Ning thought for a while and called directly.
The call was connected almost instantly.
"How are you?"
"I feel like there's something wrong with your mood, and I'm a little flustered."
Hui Yuan Ai came up with these two sentences without any pause in between.
Dongye Ning was surprised.
But he still pretended to be calm and said:
"I'm in a pretty good mood. What's wrong with you? Are you feeling flustered because you missed me?"
But Haiyuan Ai on the other end of the phone stubbornly shook his head and spoke in a positive tone:
"No, something must be wrong with you now. I have that dark feeling. You can't lie to me."
Dongye Ning was silent.
And silence is often a kind of answer.
The little loli's voice was more serious:
"Tell me..."
At this time, Hui Yuan Ai paused for a moment, and his tone turned gentle.
"Be good~ tell me, I should be your closest relative now, right?"
Higashino Ning is a direct defense breaker!
But it’s not a big deal if you drop the little pearl.
He continued to be silent, and Hui Yuan Ai also waited quietly and patiently.
Finally, Dongye Ning's voice appeared in the empty room.
"Honey, I'm a little tired. I really want to go home and hug you."
Haiyuan Ai's voice is still gentle and strong:
"Okay~ Then you can come back tomorrow. I think the news case has been solved."
"Come home, I'll give you a hug."
