Congratulations on Your Arrest

  Chapter 431 Is the big sister with very long legs?

   "It's been a long time, Higashino-kun."

  Hotel suite, in the living room.

Tokugawa Kuritor, who was re-appointed as the leader of the third investigation team, was wearing a navy blue windbreaker with an open neckline and a black textile lining inside. His unshaven look looked even more tired than Higashinohara who had returned from the **** world and haggard.

  Higashi Nohara stared at the middle-aged man sitting opposite him who had just climbed back from the life-and-death line of Hokkaido, and plunged headlong into the quagmire of Wano Country without hesitation.

Higashinohara thought that he could not do this for Wano Country, but this did not affect his respect for this middle-aged man who cared about his family and country, and said in a very humble tone, "Where... Team Leader Tokugawa entrusted me I have sent out all the letters, it's just the effect."

   "Not ideal, isn't it?"

   Tokugawa Kuritora shook his head with a wry smile, and said in a somewhat helpless tone, "It's not your fault, everyone is pushing the wall down, and no one wants to touch the hot potato of Wano Country at this time."

  When he said these words, there was a trace of exhaustion in the majestic and resolute brows and eyes.

   Obviously, during the period when he and interim Prime Minister Nobuo Kobayashi arrived at the Meizi Mansion of the United States of Tagos, they did not miss the mansions of those dignitaries and politicians.

  The effect is also not satisfactory.

   After pondering for a while, Higashinohara stared at the tired face of the middle-aged man with short chestnut hair now mixed with a little gray.

  Recalling the help the other party had given Nishimaru Miri and his aunt Kolotia Oselle during this period of time, he still said, "If necessary, I am willing to provide some help within my ability."

  The seventeen or eighteen-year-old face of the young man in front of him, standing in the afternoon sunlight projected from the window of the living room, smiled gently and sincerely, making people feel like a spring breeze.

  If a young man of seventeen or eighteen said such things at such a time of survival of the country, Tokugawa Kuritora might not take it to heart at all.

  I just think it's the passion of a young man.

  But Tokugawa Kuritoro knew that the young man in front of him was different.

  He has no blood.

  He will only cut open the enemy's chest,

   Let the enemy spill blood.

However,

  Family and country affairs,

   After all, it’s not about fighting and killing.

  Even if this mild-eyed young man used some unknown identity to kill those adjudicators who made ordinary people fear him like tigers.

  But those tiger-like rulings make,

  What is it to the huge world government and the nine masters with millennium background in the clouds?

  It’s nothing more than a dog that will bite if you drop a bone.

   Can kill a dog.

   Could he still kill his master?

  In matters of family and country,

   Blind killing will never solve the problem.

Sighing, Tokugawa Kuritora shook his head, "Mr. Higashino has a heart, but at present our prime minister is still working hard to promote cooperation with the politicians and parliamentarians of the Meiji government. There is still one month before the world conference. I hope that by then Things may turn around.”

  Obviously, compared to Higashinohara's help, Tokugawa Kuritora is still more inclined to interim agreements concluded between countries, even if these agreements themselves are not so firm.

  Transfer?

   Higashinohara was just out of courtesy just now, and for the time being, he has no good way to help Tokugawa Kuritora and interim Prime Minister Nobuo Kobayashi who arrived in the United States of Tagos ahead of schedule.

   It is impossible to say, which dignitary's mansion they are going to visit tomorrow, he will sneak in tonight, put a big sharp knife on the other party's neck to force the other party to agree

   "Hehe, Higashino-kun is not too concerned."

Tokugawa Kuritoro forced a smile, and then changed the subject, "Speaking of which, it's been a while since you left Wano Country, Mirina has always missed you, this time I heard that I'm going on a business trip to the United States of Targos , let me take her with me no matter what, hehe, there is really nothing I can do about her."

  When talking about this topic, the exhaustion on Tokugawa Kuritoro's face dissipated a little, revealing some doting smiles.

  He was born for most of his life. In his early years, he traveled between Kyoto and New Tokyo to establish the third investigation team at the same level as the Metropolitan Police Department. After that, he was only responsible to the previous prime ministers.

   It can be said that most of my life's hard work was spent on this, and my wife never took it again after she passed away. She is nearly half a hundred years old but has no heirs.

  Perhaps because of this,

  For Nishimaru Miri, a well-behaved adopted daughter, he loves him from the bottom of his heart, so much so that he has a feeling of "love the house and the black" towards Higashi Nohara.

  Otherwise, it will be replaced by another person in power who specializes in managing domestic capable persons. By chance, they learned that there is such an "extremely dangerous capable person" in China.

  Then I am afraid that even if Higashinohara’s identity is not revealed to the Judgment Division, he will rack his brains thinking about how to squeeze out the other party’s potential for government departments to use.

   It is not like Tokugawa Kuritora at all, even in the dialogue, he is cautious, for fear that exposing Higashinohara's identity will cause him unnecessary trouble.

   But then again,

  For Higashinohara, if it weren't for the reason of Miri Nishimaru.

   It is estimated that Tokugawa Kuritora died in the sea battle in Hokkaido long ago in the conspiracy of the previous Minister of Foreign Affairs, and he had no chance to learn the identity of Higashinohara.

  Perhaps, this is cause and effect.

  The two chatted for a few more words, and Tokugawa Kuritoro smiled and left the living room of the hotel suite, went to the door and picked up a hat—today he and the interim prime minister still have schedules in Maizi Mansion.

   At the same time, this is also a private communication space for Higashinohara and Nishimaru Miri, who avoided their conversation in the bedroom before.

When he was about to leave, Tokugawa Kuriko seemed to have remembered something, turned his head to Higashinohara with a smile and said, "By the way, I have already asked for leave for Higashino-kun at the Stafford Private Great Sword Academy. Always be with me and Miri-chan, and when you return to the academy in the evening, there will be a car to take you back."

   Higashinohara was stunned for a moment, and he came to his senses. No wonder he received a message from Tokugawa Kuritoro after he secretly left White Swan Harbor telling him not to go back to school.

  With Tokugawa Kuritora's endorsement, the Wano country exchange students will not have any doubts about his itinerary for the past few days, which saves him a lot of trouble.

   "Thank you so much."

"you are welcome."

   After finishing speaking, Tokugawa Kuritoro pointed to the door of Miri Nishimaru's room, shook his head with a wry smile, gave a soft sigh, put on his hat and turned to leave the hotel suite.

as predicted.

  He just walked on his front foot,

  After hearing the sound of closing the door, Nishimaru Miri opened the door and walked out, opened her head to look at the door twice,

   pouted dissatisfiedly and said,

   "Did Dad go out again? Really, he drank so much every night when he came back."

   Tokugawa Kuritora and Kobayashi Nobuo went to the mansions of those high-ranking members of parliament for dinner, and it was inevitable to ask for help and drink.

  Meet some bad-tempered congressmen who might drink alcohol on purpose. Miri Nishimaru has some not-so-good memories, and she is very sensitive to "alcohol".

  But today is different.

  Turning her head, Miri Nishimaru saw Higashinohara standing in the sun, a sweet dimple suddenly appeared on her little face.

   Obviously the days of parting are not too long, but at this moment when we see each other again, there is a strong longing and dependence in my heart.

  Miri Nishimaru trotted out, as if she wanted to give Higashinohara a hug—she opened the door for Higashinohara just now, and there was Tokugawa Kuritora standing in the living room behind, and the little girl couldn't help but feel a little bit reluctant to let go.

  There is no one else at the moment,

   You don’t have to worry about anything anymore.

Running to the front, the little guy circled around Higashinohara puppy twice, and after making sure that his arms and legs were not injured too much, a smile suddenly appeared on his little face, and he was about to come up and hug Higashinohara like he used to arm.

   Unexpectedly and without warning,

   Higashinohara found that Miri Nishimaru's smiling face suddenly lost its smile visible to the naked eye.

  The corner of his mouth twitched slightly.

   Doubts arose in my heart.

  How did this little girl learn to "change her face".

  Miri Nishimaru was holding the corner of her clothes with her small hands, she lowered her head slightly and stood in front of Higashinohara, looking down at the tip of her shoes, and said, "Brother, do you have a girlfriend now?"

"what?"

   Higashinohara was taken aback for a moment.

   Immediately realized that Miri Nishimaru was still in Wano Country during the battle of White Swan Harbor a week ago.

  But the pictures captured by the media of Shangjing TV Station were all spread on the Internet. Higashinohara and Dorothy Alita fought against the demon sword Puso Wiseman's unparalleled double-blade waltz.

  The charm and intimacy contained in it cannot be hidden from the eyes of Miri Nishimaru who is familiar with him.

   And then and now,

  In the Wano country on the shore of the East China Sea in the Cross Continent, Miri Nishimaru and his aunt Kolotia, who brought over the cut fruit after the meal, sat on the tatami mat and watched the live news.

  When this scene came in, Kolotia, the aunt who didn’t know Higashinohara’s other identity, was fine, but Miri Nishimaru was completely dumbfounded.

  At this moment I can finally see Higashinohara,

  After the great joy welled up in her little heart, all she wanted to do now was to make sure of this.

   Higashinohara looked at Miri Nishimaru's wide-eyed pupils with black jewel-like pupils, although he was caught off guard by this question?

  But there is no secret between him and Miri Nishimaru so far, so he nodded with a smile and said frankly,

   "Not really."

  These words were like a thunderbolt from the blue sky, Nishimaru Miri's body was like a wooden body, and a thought flashed in a daze.

   It turns out that all these speculations are true.

   It is said that elder brothers are like fathers, and fathers love like mountains, so now the world of little girls is like landslides and landslides!

  Nishimaru Miri felt an inexplicable sense of awkwardness as a "stepmother descended from heaven" in her little heart. In addition, there was an inexplicable sense of loss deep in her heart.

  Miri Nishimaru, whose small face seemed a little pale, blinked her **** and white eyes, stared at Higashinohara's cheek and asked a question.

"is that one

   Is that the big sister with long legs? "

  The big sister with long legs?

  There are many women with long legs in this world.

  But at this moment, as soon as Miri Nishimaru spoke, the first thing that flashed in Higashinohara's mind was Dorothy Alita's long legs that made him thrilled that night.

   Came back to his senses, Higashinohara nodded Nishimaru Miri's head with some amusement, shook his head and said,

   "There is no one who describes others like that. Her name is Dorothy. If there is a chance in the future, I will introduce you to each other."

  Dorothy.

  Even the address is omitted so close to the last name?

  Miri Nishimaru thought a little bit disappointed.

   Higashinohara saw Miri Nishimaru's depression, and couldn't help but look at her with some amusement and said,

   "How unhappy are you? Don't worry, even if you have a girlfriend, you will always be my sister."

   These words did not seem to comfort Miri Nishimaru.

  The little girl lowered her head and remained silent for a while, then suddenly twitched her small nostrils, raised her head and stared at Higashinohara with those **** and white eyes, and asked without thinking, "Big brother, what do you think of my aunt?"

ah?

  Auntie?

  The two eyes met for a moment.

   Higashinohara finally came to his senses, and immediately knocked on Miri Nishimaru's forehead angrily, "What nonsense are you talking about, how old is Miss Kolotia?"

   "I'm in my twenties."

  Nishimaru Miri held her head and said dissatisfiedly.

   Higashinohara was a little stunned.

Only then did I remember that my aunt Kolotia Oselle, who was busy taking care of him and Miri Nishimaru in daily life like a housewife in New Tokyo, was actually the youngest younger sister of Miri Nishimaru's mother, who was older than her mother. much smaller.

  Nishimaru Miri still raised her head and stared at Higashinohara with those **** jewel-like eyes blinking, and asked again, "Brother, what do you think of Auntie?"

Higashinohara had some headaches from the occasional persistence shown by the little girl in front of him, and couldn't help but shook his head and said, "Of course Miss Kolotia is very good, but she is your aunt, and she is also considered an elder to me. She is still young." older than me."

  Before he finished speaking, Nishimaru Miri interrupted him with a mutter, "But that Miss Dorothy is also older than you, big brother likes older types. Then why can't my aunt?"

   Higashinohara suffocated suddenly.

  Year type?

  This is all a mess.

   I haven't seen you for a while, what did this little girl learn at Zhuyuan Minami Power Academy.

   Is it because of the early exposure to high school life?

   shook his head,

   Higashinohara was about to say something.

  Unexpectedly, Nishimaru Miri pressed her finger against her small chin, pondered for a moment, then suddenly asked herself and continued, "I see, is it because Auntie's legs are not as long as Sister Dorothy's?"

   "." Higashinohara.

   Nicole is such a little genius.

   Higashinohara is completely speechless?

   I didn't expect to be away for a long time. In fact, it was not a long time for a warm reunion, but it turned out like this.

  Nishimaru Miri, a little girl who was originally precocious and introverted due to family reasons, now meets Higashinohara and Tokugawa Kuritora, and because of her personal talent, she has been exposed to high school life in advance, and she seems to have become more and more eccentric.

  It was rare for Miri Nishimaru to see Higashinohara speechless, so she couldn't help laughing.

  She quickly rubbed her small head against Higashinohara's palm like a puppy like before, and said obediently, "Okay, okay, I won't talk nonsense, big brother, don't be angry."

  The atmosphere is back on track.

   Higashinohara couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief, he really couldn't do anything about this little girl, but he said with a straight face, "When you return to Wano Country, don't talk nonsense in front of Miss Kolotia."

  Miri Nishimaru puffed her mouth and muttered, "But my aunt has taken care of us for so long, and she is also very kind to my elder brother. There is not much difference in age. I think you are really good"

   "Still talking nonsense!"

   "Ah! Sorry!"

  “.”

   There was a little noise, and the students who hadn't seen each other for a long time disappeared without a trace.

  The next afternoon,

   Higashinohara basically sat on the sofa and was pestered by Mirika Nishimaru asking about what happened in the **** world.

   Higashinohara briefly talked about it,

   Skip what cannot be said.

  But Miri Nishimaru didn’t seem to care much about these things, she mainly talked about the details of Higashinohara and Dorothy Alita’s first acquaintance.

   This is even more difficult to describe one by one.

  Higashi Nohara could only cough twice, and this time he only said what he could say.

   Click until the end,

  It is not good to talk too much.

  But hearing that the two were hunted down by the Nine Great Masters and the Judgment Division, Miri Nishimaru, who had imagined a poignant picture of the end of the world, couldn't get enough of it, her squinted eyes were full of envy.

  The afternoon passed like this.

  In the evening, there was a knock on the door of the hotel suite. It was the driver arranged by Tokugawa Kuritora in advance, who was responsible for Higashinohara's return to school and reported to Kikuchi Xiaichi, the exchange student leader teacher.

   Higashinohara bid farewell to the reluctant Nishimaru Miri, and made an appointment to see you tomorrow, then left the hotel and went downstairs to get in the car.

  On city roads,

  In a car driving smoothly.

  The driver was a newcomer to the third investigation team. Looking through the rearview mirror, he was a little surprised that his task was to pick up an ordinary high school student who was a few years younger than him.

  Thinking that Team Leader Tokugawa was quite serious when he gave him the task, as if he was treating some important person, he was even more puzzled.

  But when I think of the way I talked happily with Miri Nishimaru when I just left, I only think that the other party is the friend of Ms. Nishimaru, the leader of Tokugawa's palm.

  In the rear seat of the car,

  Although Higashinohara noticed the driver's gaze, he didn't take it seriously, but he frowned slightly as he watched the passing scenery outside the window.

at the same time,

  In the city car radio in the car,

  A mid-spirited male announcer was shouting in a surprised tone:

"Two billion!"

   "The World Government announces that it will accept anonymous donations from social justice figures! The Third Judgment Empress who offered a reward of 2 billion to rebel and defect to the enemy! My God! We heard it right?!"
