Chapter 144 Who is the girlfriend?
In the evening, night falls and the party begins.
Lin Xinyi held Caesar's hand, and Mao Lilan held Conan's hand, and walked downstairs together.
Conan's little face was still red at this time, and he didn't know whether it was because he was scalded by the bath water, or because the speed was too fast and the engine was overloaded.
The group of people arrived at the living room on the first floor. In the living room, other guests attending the party were already chatting and laughing.
"Xiaolan, you are here!"
Seeing Lin Xinyi and others arriving, Suzuki Sonoko quickly stood up and came to greet them.
Although the blow caused by broken love is a bit difficult, it is just like what Xiaolan said before
This wasn't the first time this happened. After being beaten so many times, she had already gotten used to it.
So, with her naturally optimistic and lively temperament, she quickly bounced back.
Although she was still a little disappointed in her heart, on the surface, Suzuki Sonoko seemed to have returned to her usual cheerful self:
"Xiaolan, and Lin Xinyi, please come and sit here!"
She smiled and stepped aside, inviting everyone to sit down.
"Yeah." Lin Xin nodded in response, but his eyes were a little subtle:
Why is this Miss Suzuki still calling him "Sir"?
Suzuki Sonoko understood Lin Xinyi's eyes.
And she answered very calmly:
"Love is love, worship is worship."
"Even if you can't be my boyfriend, you're still my idol!"
"I've been following the news about you in the newspapers these days - and it's not just me, but the girls in the school also like Lin Xinyi very much!"
As she spoke, Ms. Suzuki's eyes showed the unabashed admiration of a star-chasing fan.
Lin Xinyi was a little uncomfortable with this feeling of being a celebrity.
But the fact is that due to too many hot searches, he has indeed become a popular star now:
"Yeah, no wonder it feels so familiar."
"It turns out that the 'handsome guy' that Yuanzi has been longing to invite is Manager Lin from the Metropolitan Police Department!"
Suzuki Ayako was also surprised to recognize Lin Xinyi.
This gentle young lady is Sonoko's sister, the eldest princess of the Suzuki Consortium, and the host and initiator of this party.
And he found that the person standing in front of him was none other than the recently popular Metropolitan Police star Queen.
Several other guests at the party, including several good friends Suzuki Ayako met in the film club during college, also smiled at Lin Xinyi.
"Manager Lin, hello!"
"I am Hiroki Kakutani, and I am currently the editor-in-chief of a film magazine."
A man with a camera in his hand said to Lin Xinyi enthusiastically.
"Katsu Ohta, currently working as an imported car salesman."
"If Manager Lin needs to buy a good car, you can contact me."
The person who said this was a handsome man. He was holding a cigarette and smiling, looking a little frivolous.
"Chikako Ikeda, screenwriter."
This introduction is the most concise and capable, and the tone is the most confident.
It was as if everyone could recognize her simply by saying her name.
In the end, it was Suzuki Ayako who calmly helped with the introduction, allowing Lin Xinyi to know who this woman was:
"Chikako is now a famous author, screenwriter and film director."
"The currently popular "Blue Kingdom" is the work of Chikako!"
"Oh, long time admiration."
Lin Xinyi said a few polite words to Chikako Ikeda perfunctorily.
Then, he turned his head and looked at the last man among the guests who did not introduce himself.
It was a fat man wearing glasses.
He was wearing a bulging long-sleeved sweatshirt, and his belly looked round and round, as if he was heavy.
Seeing Lin Xin looking over, the chubby man reacted belatedly:
"Lin, Manager Lin, nice to meet you."
"My name is Takahashi Ryoichi, and I currently work in a food company."
Takahashi Ryoichi scratched his head with a kind and harmless smile on his face.
And as soon as he finished introducing himself, Mao Lilan said a little embarrassedly:
"It turns out to be Mr. Takahashi"
"I'm really sorry for accidentally barging into your room this afternoon."
"Don't worry, I didn't see anything."
''It's okay, don't take it to heart. "
"Miss Maori, you are so beautiful, even if you are really seen, I won't suffer any loss. Hahaha."
Takahashi Ryoichi waved his hand nonchalantly, his fat face looking very kind.
"Oh?" Lin Xinyi was slightly stunned.
He looked at Ryoichi Takahashi up and down, and then asked with some concern:
"Is the person living in that room turned out to be Mr. Takahashi?"
"Yes," Takahashi Ryoichi sighed, "It's my fault that I didn't lock the door properly and made such a joke happen."
Lin Xinyi did not continue to ask, but nodded thoughtfully.
At this time, looking at the big black-backed dog next to Lin Xinyi, Takahashi Ryoichi took the initiative to ask:
"What a majestic German Shepherd. Such a big guy."
"Officer Lin, isn't this the police dog you brought from the forensics department?"
He looked at Caesar squatting beside the sofa with curiosity, as if he liked this big dog very much.
Mao Lilan was about to answer Takahashi's question and reveal Caesar's identity as the ace of the forensics class.
But Lin Xinyi got ahead of her and said with a smile:
"Police dog? Haha, how is that possible?"
"Police dogs are all state civil servants. How can I use a male dog for personal use and take the police dog out to play with?"
"You are mistaken, Caesar."
"It's just a stupid dog raised by my Lin family."
As he said that, Lin Xinyi stretched out his hand and rubbed Caesar's plush dog head vigorously.
"Woof woof woof"
Caesar was so relieved that he stuck out his tongue and let out a whimper of pleasure.
This soft and cute voice paired with its innocent eyes at this moment, it seems that it has degenerated from a German Shepherd into a Husky. It really looks a bit silly.
Seeing this scene, Takahashi Ryoichi's smile became much more natural:
"It's so cute, haha."
After getting to know each other, everyone had a happy chat.
Because of the appearance of Lin Xinyi, a topical figure, the theme of the party unknowingly shifted.
Everyone was surrounding Lin Xinyi, asking him to tell the details and experiences of solving the case these days.
As Lin Xinyi's assistant, the now famous "Beautiful Girl Forensic Doctor" Mao Lilan has also been enthusiastically sought after by everyone.
In this way, Suzuki Ayako's college class reunion gradually turned into a story meeting between Lin Xinyi and Mao Lilan.
And time passed unconsciously in this interesting story meeting.
The night was getting darker, and it was raining heavily outside the window.
Conan sat in a daze, bored.
And just when he was in a daze and wanted to sleep, Suzuki Sonoko quietly came over:
"Hey, kid."
"Do you know who Lin Xinyi's girlfriend is?"
"Huh?" Conan replied subconsciously:
"Sister Yuanzi, are you still unwilling to give up?"
"Stop it now, no one will be interested in you"
"Hey, you little brat, why are you still so annoying!"
Suzuki Sonoko pinched Conan's little face full of disgust:
"What do you mean by 'still refusing to give up'? Bastard"
"Will I be a mistress and chase married men?"
"It's not like this has never happened before," Conan muttered.
Suzuki Sonoko: ""
She now wants to sew the mouth of this vicious-tongued brat shut:
"Damn Xiaolan, why do you tell me everything like this little brat?"
"Those scumbag men lied to me - I didn't even know they had girlfriends before I chased them!"
Suzuki Sonoko gritted her teeth and talked about her dark history.
Then, trying to calm down, she asked:
"In short, I have no interest in Mr. Lin Xinyi now."
"It's just that I'm still simply curious about who moved so fast and stole my target?"
"This" Conan thought for a while, but couldn't answer: "I don't know either."
"Sister Xiaolan and I have both asked."
"But Brother Lin Xinyi didn't even say a word to us."
Although Conan and Mao Lilan have met Miyano Shiho once or twice, Miyano's identity is sensitive after all, and people should not know too much.
In order to prevent further investigation by troublemakers, especially Conan, Lin Xinyi insisted on not revealing any information.
Therefore, what makes everyone including Conan strange is that
Although Lin Xinyi insisted that he had a girlfriend, he could not tell who or where his girlfriend was.
His girlfriend was like the dragon in Carl Sagan's garage, unobservable but unverifiable.
Other people's girlfriends are materialistic, but Lin Xinyi's girlfriend is metaphysical.
"Who will be his girlfriend?"
Suzuki Sonoko's face was full of curiosity.
She gently rubbed her chin, like a famous detective who encountered a murder case, and began to reason attentively:
"Last month at the tram stop, Mr. Lin Xinyi replied that he was single."
"This shows that not only did he not have a girlfriend at the time, but he also didn't have anyone he liked."
"Otherwise, with his decisive and direct character"
"He would directly state his attitude at that time, instead of saying that he was single, and give me the opportunity to continue pursuing him."
"So Lin Xinyi must have just discovered that he likes a certain girl from that day to now in less than a month."
Conan was confused.
He is good at discussing cases, but he can also discuss emotional issues. His mind is probably not much smarter than Caesar's:
"Sister Yuanzi, what do you want to say?"
"Stupid!"
Suzuki Sonoko looked at Conan with some contempt:
"Emotions take time to develop."
"Since Lin Xinyi only recently discovered that he likes someone, then by analyzing which girl he has been in contact with more these days, we can guess who he likes!"
"Well that makes sense."
Conan reacted belatedly.
But he doesn't know everything about Lin Xinyi's life, so even if the famous detective Yuanzi gives the investigation ideas, Conan can't deduce the result.
But at this time, the famous detective Sonoko gave her answer with a serious expression:
"Conan, if my reasoning is correct."
"It's very likely that she is Mr. Lin Xinyi's girlfriend"
"Yes?" Conan pricked up his ears gossiping.
"Xiaolan!"
Conan: ""
“It’s impossible”
"Just now, when I heard that Brother Shinichi had a girlfriend, Sister Xiaolan also acted very shocked!"
"Then you don't understand!"
"Xiaolan has been shy since she was a child. If she does something like this, she will hide it carefully and be embarrassed to show it."
"Especially, in front of me."
Suzuki Sonoko analyzed with a complex expression:
"Speaking of who has the deepest relationship with Lin Xinyi recently, it must be Xiaolan!"
"She used to be inseparable from me every day, but recently every time I ask her out, she says she wants to find Lin Xinyi to make up lessons."
"Xiaolan has never valued study more than friends before."
"The only thing that can make her forget about me as a close friend is probably falling in love!"
"Plus, it's normal for that bastard Kudo to leave Xiaolan behind for so long and Xiaolan to fall in love with someone else."
"This" Conan's mouth twitched when he heard it.
Sonoko's reasoning level is as good as Uncle Mouri's.
How is this possible?
Lin Xinyi has made it clear that he has no interest in Xiaolan.
Um, wait a minute
"I have no interest in that area," didn't I say that before?
Conan suddenly reacted:
How can you believe what your love rival says?
"It's not impossible."
Conan felt guilty, but still spoke harshly:
"Sister Xiaolan, she is not the kind of woman who would casually have an affair with other men!"
"Well, that seems right."
Suzuki Sonoko couldn't help but start to reflect:
"Xiaolan's personality is completely different from mine."
"She does seem like the kind of traditional woman who sticks to the end."
She and Conan were thinking so, when they saw
In the chat party nearby, the handsome Mr. Satoshi Ohta suddenly stood up and walked to Mao Lilan:
"Miss Maori, we have been chatting for a long time."
"I don't know, would you like to take a walk with me?"
"Huh?" Mao Lilan didn't react for a while.
"Anyway, please show me your face!"
"Wouldn't it be romantic to take a walk in the rain?"
Ota Satoshi unscrupulously brought his handsome face closer and gently grabbed Mao Lilan's arm.
Mao Lilan was dumbfounded and dizzy, but it turned out to be true
Go, follow.
I went for a walk in the rain with a handsome guy I just met.
Garden: ""
Conan: "????"
The second one will be later. . .
