Congratulations You Are Under Arrest!

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

Hotel suite, 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 hell world and haggard.

Higashinohara stared at the middle-aged man who had just climbed back from the life and death line of Hokkaido and plunged 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, is it?

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

When he said this, there was a trace of exhaustion in his majestic and resolute brows.

Apparently, 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 unsatisfactory.

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.

Thinking of the other party's help to 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 smiled gently and sincerely in the afternoon sunlight projected from the window of the living room, 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 feel that it is the blood of a young man.

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

He has no blood.

He will only let the enemy's chest be cut,

Let the enemy spill blood.

However,

national 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 a millennium background in the clouds?

It's just a dog that bites when you drop a bone.

Can kill a dog.

Could he still kill the 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 reliable.

Transfer?

Higashinohara was just out of courtesy, 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 can't be said that tomorrow they will visit which dignitary's mansion, he will sneak in tonight, put a big sharp knife on the other party's neck to force the other party to agree

Hehe, Dong Ye-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 Kuriko's face dissipated a little, revealing some doting smiles.

Most of his life, he traveled between Kyoto and New Tokyo in his early years and established 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 effort 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 it is precisely because of this,

For Miri Nishimaru, 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 Higashinohara.

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

I'm afraid that even if Higashinohara's identity is not revealed to the adjudication department, he will rack his brains thinking about how to squeeze out the other party's potential for government departments to use.

It's not like Tokugawa Kuritora, who is cautious even in the conversation, 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 naval 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 the cause and effect.

The two chatted for a few more words, and Tokugawa Kurotora 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 Kuritora 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 would not have any doubts about his itinerary for the past few days, which saved 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, then put on his hat and turned to leave the hotel suite.

as expected.

He just walked away,

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

He 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 powerful and dignified members of parliament for dinner, and it was probably unavoidable to ask for help and drink.

When encountering some bad-tempered congressmen, they may even 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 sunlight, and sweet dimples appeared on her little face.

Obviously the days of parting are not too long, but at this moment of goodbye, 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, the little girl couldn't help being a little bit reluctant to let go.

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 hem of her clothes with her little hands, she lowered her head slightly, stood in front of Higashinohara, looked down at the tip of her shoes and said, Big brother, do you have a girlfriend already?

ah?

Higashinohara was taken aback for a moment.

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

However, the pictures captured by the media of Shangjing TV were all spread on the Internet. Higashinohara and Dorothy Alita fought against the demon sword Puso Wiseman's tacit understanding of the two-person sharp-edged waltz.

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

And all the time,

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

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

At this moment I can finally see Higashinohara,

Her little heart was filled with great joy, and now she only wanted to make sure of this.

Higashinohara looked at Miri Nishimaru's wide-eyed pupils that were as pure as black jewels, although he was caught off guard by this question?

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

Not really.

These words were suddenly like a bolt from the blue, Nishimaru Miri's body was as wooden as a thought flashed in a daze.

It turned out that all these speculations were true.

It is said that an elder brother is like a father, and a father's love is like a mountain, so now the world of a little girl is like a landslide!

Miri Nishimaru had an inexplicably awkward feeling of stepmother descended from heaven in her little heart. In addition, there was an inexplicable sense of loss deep in her heart.

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

is that

Is that the big sister with long legs?

Big sister with long legs?

There are many women with long legs in this world.

But at the moment when Miri Nishimaru had just spoken, the first thing that flashed in Higashinohara's mind was Dorothy Alita's long legs that made him thrilled that night.

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

There's no one who describes others like that. Her name is Dorothy. If I have a chance in the future, I'll introduce you to her.

Dorothy.

Did you even omit the surname so intimacy?

Miri Nishimaru thought a little bit disappointed.

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

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

These words did not seem to comfort Nishimaru Miri.

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

ah?

Auntie?

The two looked at each other 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?

In my twenties.

Nishimaru Miri held her head and said dissatisfiedly.

Higashinohara was a little taken aback.

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 looked up and stared at Higashinohara with those big black jewel-like eyes blinking, and asked again, Big 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 was suffocated immediately.

Year type?

It's 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 fingers against her small chin, pondered for a moment, and 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, and it turned out like this.

The little girl Nishimaru Miri was originally precocious and introverted due to family reasons, but now she 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, and couldn't help laughing.

She quickly rubbed Higashinohara's palm with her small head 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. There was really nothing he could do 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.

Nishimaru Miri 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! I'm sorry!

.

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

The following afternoon,

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

Higashinohara talked roughly,

Skip what can't be said.

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

This is even more difficult to describe one by one.

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

Click to end,

It's not good to say too much.

But when he heard that the two were being hunted down by the Nine Great Masters and the Judgment Division, Miri Nishimaru, who had imagined a poignant picture of his exile in the end of the world, couldn't get enough of it, and his small face with narrowed eyes was full of envy.

The afternoon just passed by.

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 the exchange student leader teacher Kikuchi Kaichi.

Higashinohara bid farewell to Miri Nishimaru who was reluctant to leave, and made an appointment to meet again tomorrow, then left the hotel and went downstairs to get in the car.

on city roads,

In a smoothly moving car.

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

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

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 jewel in the palm of the leader of Tokugawa, and at the same time, I feel a little envious of being fair and handsome these days because of her popularity.

the back 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 people of social justice! The Empress of the Third Judgment who offered a reward of 2 billion to rebel and surrender to the enemy! My God! We heard it right?!
