Chapter 299 How to choose between Red Herring and Jiangxia

Asami Endo didn't wait for Mao Lilan to finish, but interrupted her with a sad expression: "You don't understand, we were sitting right behind you in the Emperor's Cup a while ago. When Jiang Xia saw you, her eyes seemed to be shining. "

 She secretly focused on "we", trying to imply that Jiang Xia is actually an acrobat with two boats...no, three boats. The two high school girls in front of me are relatively innocent. They must not be able to accept this situation and will give up...

Thinking of this, Miss Mami sighed again, lowered her eyes, and showed off her beautiful thick eyelashes: "Anyway, you should be careful."

After saying that, she didn't give the two young people much time to digest. She once again took out half of her hand from the edge of the quilt and waved it as if she had lost her dream: "Thank you for coming to see me. I didn't sleep last night. I must have You must be very tired. Go back and rest quickly, I'm going to sleep too."

Mao Lilan and Suzuki Sonoko could only say goodbye first.

Asami Endo pretended to close her eyes, then secretly opened her eyes a crack, watching the two people go away, trying to observe their attitudes, but unfortunately she couldn't tell for the time being.

After the door closed softly, she opened her eyes again, with a tired but full of fighting spirit flashing in her eyes.

 …

Out of the door, Mao Lilan sighed and murmured in a low voice: "Senior sister must have misunderstood friendship as love or romance... Let's explain it later when she feels better."

Suzuki Sonoko shook her head seriously: "No, I think she is right, it is love."

 Mao Lilan: “…?”

Suzuki Sonoko didn't notice the strange look in her friend's eyes. She clasped her hands in front of her chest, longingly imagining the beautiful scene where Jiang Xia couldn't walk as soon as she saw her and had to follow her. After thinking about it for a while, she realized what happened later. Consciously aware of that "we".

Then I suddenly realized that if it was really a love affair, Jiang Xia would be turned into a scumbag...

In the longing dream scene, the situation changed. Jiang Xia became a busy handsome top and began to run around among countless beautiful sisters.

 Suzuki Sonoko: “…”

 A blue vein appeared on her forehead. She came back from the fantasy world and sighed faintly: "...Okay, let's call it friendship for the time being."

At the same time, I thought coldly, the senior sister is indeed a person who has entered a small society. When she sees boys and girls standing together, she feels that they are having sex, he~tui! The sour adult world.

Conan listened silently, with a complicated expression.

 As a male high school student who likes Mao Lilan, what Endo-senpai said to Suzuki Sonoko just now made him instantly overwhelmed with jealousy.

 But at the same time, as a rational detective, Conan subconsciously began to verify what the girls said.

He carefully recalled the feeling of "eyes shining" described by his senior sister, and then he was shocked to find that he seemed to be more familiar with Jiang Xia's state. Objectively speaking, every time Jiang Xia meets him and Hattori Heiji, his eyes seem to light up even more...

Senior’s words about the deterioration of friendship echoed in his mind again. Conan’s expression gradually changed from jealous to frightened, and his hair stood on end: Friendship, it’s friendship! Senior sister is wrong, really wrong, this is friendship!

 Suzuki Sonoko and Mao Lilan didn't notice that there was a panicked child at their feet.

They chatted for a while and then quickly shifted their focus to other places.

Suzuki Sonoko said happily: "But if the senior sister hadn't said it, I really wouldn't have noticed that Jiang Xia's attitude towards us was so different." It seems that the previously established action plan of "building a strong bond" is very effective! In this way, you no longer have to worry about someone like a **** psychiatrist suddenly appearing and engaging in Jiang Xia mentality.

Mao Lilan nodded.

　　The inexplicable sense of responsibility in the two people's hearts continued to rise.

As the strange numerical value broke through a certain line, Suzuki Sonoko smiled and suddenly felt guilty.

She paused on her feet and remembered something. There was a war between heaven and man in her heart for a moment, and she weakly asked Mao Lilan: "Why don't you bring Jiang Xia with you to the party?"

Counting the days, it feels like it’s been a long time since I went out to play with Jiang Xia. Yesterday's party was invited by Miss Asami, and Jiang Xia only passed by at the end... Thinking about the topic just now, Suzuki Sonoko suddenly felt as if she had become a person who started to mess up after boosting other people's favorability. The abandoned scumbag.

The "party" she mentioned just now was actually an offline meetup - Suzuki Sonoko likes to hang out in various forums in her free time. Recently, one of her magician forum circles was going to hold an offline gathering for magic lovers.

Suzuki Sonoko is looking forward to this party.

 First, because when communicating in the forum, she always spoke as a man. Now that she has the opportunity to be **** offline, she wants to see other netizens exclaiming, "So you are such a cute girl!"

 In addition, Suzuki Sonoko has a friend with the forum ID "Red Herring". Although the two of them have never exchanged photos, Suzuki Sonoko firmly believes that Red Herring is an extremely handsome guy based on the other person's conversation, and she wants to visit him.

Of course it is not easy to bring Jiang Xia with him for this kind of thing, so Suzuki Yuanzi secretly said nothing before and only told Mao Lilan about the situation of Mianji.

However, now, thinking of Jiang Xia's resolute figure who rushed into the fire for her friends last night, Suzuki Sonoko thought of the magician's party again, and suddenly felt a strong guilty conscience: In order to meet strange netizens, she deliberately hid the truth from Jiang Xia and only took Xiaolan to go out with her. , I am too much...

The battle between heaven and man in Suzuki Sonoko's heart is still going on. One moment, he is a perfect strange SSR-level handsome guy generated based on his brain. The next moment, he is standing alone in a shadow corner, silently watching Jiang Xia, two good friends, walking away hand in hand without him.

 …In the end, the battle took a bit of a turn.

Suzuki Sonoko slowly took out her mobile phone, gritted her teeth and found Jiang Xia's account number, and sent the invitation message in one go.

 Jiang Xia, who was on the other side of the phone, didn’t know what he was doing and replied almost instantly: “Okay.”

Suzuki Sonoko was startled. She looked through the text message records and took a look at the unusual reply speed in the past. She suspected that Jiang Xia had set special attention for her.

 …The decision to ask Jiang Xia to come with us was indeed the right one!

Suzuki Sonoko breathed out a sigh of relief and put the phone back into her pocket.

 Then he was still a little unwilling and murmured: "...I am such a good person."

 …

When Suzuki Sonoko mentioned the magicians' gathering, Jiang Xia immediately thought of the corresponding case.

He was not surprised by this incident, because when Kidd stole the pool cue a while ago, he said that there would be an offline gathering of magicians soon - Kidd is also a member of that forum, and he wears a "red herring" vest. , and also gave himself a false name of "Takashi Doi", which was made up of the pseudonym of "Kid".
