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

Chapter 149 I've been here many times, that's your lie

The wait wasn't too long.

Takagi Shige brought four people over. They still didn't want to reveal their names and just wanted to get things done, so Tono Ning asked them to go out and investigate.

Investigate the people around him and the deceased's relationship network thoroughly to see if you can find any clues.

Although Higashino Ning is roughly certain that this is a theatrical version, we cannot do everything with an "I think" attitude, and we still need to do the necessary investigation.

And so what if it's really a theatrical version?

For Tono Ning, the so-called "The Assassin" was a work that was produced more than ten or twenty years ago. He only remembered the scene in this movie where Xiaolan lost her memory.

The theatrical versions that left a deep impression on him include "Countdown to Heaven", "The Blue Coffin", "The Phantom of Baker Street", "The Terrifying Score" and "Something's a Conspiracy", the Kogoro Mouri Highlight Theater.

It was so long ago that he couldn't remember it because he had watched it too long ago.

He doesn't remember the recent ones because he never watched them.

Higashino Ning was just an ordinary viewer who liked to watch Conan during his teenage years.

The reason I have a deep impression of the main storyline is because I was bored with watching daily dramas at that time, so I chose to watch the main storyline on a whim.

Takagi Wataru said he also wanted to help with the investigation, but Tono Ning stopped him and said, "Stop working and go back. Inspector Megure may have something else to talk to you about."

After saying that, he leaned closer and lowered his voice, "By the way, have you and Officer Sato made any new breakthroughs or progress recently?"

Takagi Wataru touched the back of his head and said, "It doesn't seem to be much different from before. We chat and work on cases every day, and have lunch together at noon and in the evening."

"That's a sure thing!" Dong Ye Ning clenched his fists. "As long as you take the initiative, Officer Sato will definitely accept you!"

"Uh..." Takagi Wataru's expression was stiff. "I think it's better to forget it. I don't think Officer Sato has a very obvious liking for me. A rash attack will definitely backfire."

Does this mean you don’t have a deep affection for me?

Dong Ye Ning covered his face and said nothing, "You have to let someone hug you and call you 'good brother' lovingly for you to be considered as having an obvious crush on you, right?"

"You don't like her, but she talks to you and eats with you every day?"

"Why have I never seen Officer Sato behave like this with other police officers?"

Takagi Wataru said confidently, "Higashino, you are wrong to think so. The reason why this happened is entirely because Officer Sato and I both work under Inspector Megure."

As he said this, he put on an expression that showed he understood everything, "If you rashly confess your feelings because you misunderstood that this was a crush, then things would be too awkward!"

"Dongye, you haven't even found a girlfriend yourself, so don't give me any advice."

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

Okay, you have a point.

My buddy was able to find his way out of being single only thanks to Haibara Ai's crazy love for him.

So you should work hard on yourself.

Dong Ye Ning stopped pressing and let Gao Mushi leave.

He had nothing else to do at the moment, so he simply picked a target to investigate.

A whole afternoon of hard work resulted in a meaningless investigation report.

Police officer Qingtian is 29 years old. He doesn't have any conflicts with anyone on a daily basis. He is praised by all his neighbors and everyone says he is a good policeman.

According to his friends and colleagues, Police Officer Qingtian has not been hated by anyone because of his work in the past six months.

There is only one piece of news worth paying attention to.

His wife said that starting about half a month ago, Qingtian police officer would sometimes return home a few hours later than usual even after get off work.

After returning home, he would basically make excuses about investigating something, and sometimes he would sit in the living room late at night, sighing and thinking about things by himself, and would not say anything when asked.

"We can only wait until tomorrow to start the second round of investigation..."

Dong Ye Ning could now work the night shift to continue his investigation, but others might not have the time, and there were still many places he needed to travel to, so he simply put it aside for now.

If I go home at this time, I can still catch dinner.

He hurriedly called Huihara Ai and told her that he would be back soon. The reply he got was, "Stupid, stupid, take care of it yourself. I've already taken it and am researching drug information at the doctor's house. It's best not to disturb me before I get home."

Dong Ye Ning understands very well that being interrupted when concentrating on something can make people feel irritated.

So why is he in such a hurry to go home now?

Just eat outside.

Dong Ye Ning called Shiratori Renzaburo and invited him to a restaurant in the evening to chat.

It was almost time to get off work, so he wasn't worried about speaking too late.

Sure enough, Shiratori Renzaburo agreed without much hesitation.

Almost half an hour later.

Shiratori Jinzaburo looked at the conveyor belt sushi restaurant in front of him and was hesitant to move.

"You brought me here to eat this?"

“It’s not even a famous signature store?”

Dong Ye Ning casually took off his coat and said, "Oh, there's nothing I can do. My financial resources are limited, but I want to eat well and be full. This is a suitable place."

He took Shiratori Renzaburo's arm and walked towards the store. "I've eaten here many times before, and the food is excellent. And look at how many customers there are here. If the food wasn't good, there wouldn't be so many people sitting here."

Shiratori Renzaburo pondered for a moment, let down his guard, and followed Dong Ye Ning into the store.

The bonus and salary are not that much, and Higashino Ning has also bought a car, so renting the Kudo family’s house will definitely not be particularly cheap.

Dong Ye Ning probably really has no money now.

After entering the store, the waiter quickly asked and arranged seats.

"It's a lie that I've been here many times."

"The sushi chef and the waiter don't even know you!"

Shiratori Renzaburo couldn't help but complain in his heart, but so many customers still gave him the courage to try.

The food may not be bad if there are few customers, but it will definitely not be bad if there are many customers.

Conveyor belt sushi is more casual, you can take whatever you want to eat and you can even order it yourself.

Since it was his first time here, Shiratori Jinzaburo didn't think that the ingredients he wanted to eat would be available here, so he just ate whatever was available.

"There are only 17 servings of fresh star flounder sushi left today. Please raise your hands if you need them."

Dong Ye Ning immediately raised his hand, and also helped Shiratori Renzaburo raise his hand as well.

When a gentleman is eating out, does he ever need to raise his hand to indicate that he wants to eat?

This is too embarrassing!

"Okay, two of you over here."

After waiting for a while, two plates of star flounder sushi were handed over.

Dong Ye Ning quickly took them and placed them in front of himself.

Shiratori Renzaburo: “???”

"I see that you don't seem to want to eat it, so I asked you to order one more portion for me. I want to eat this." Dong Ye Ning quickly squeezed lemon juice on it and stuffed it into his mouth.

Shiratori Renzaburo shouted, "You are going too far!"

He quickly grabbed his plate back and said, "When did I say I didn't want to eat anymore?"

Squeeze some lemon juice and sprinkle with a pinch of salt.

You know what, it tastes really good, not much different from what he eats in high-end sushi restaurants!
