Congratulations on Your Arrest Chapter 222

  Chapter 222 I'm Back (Daily) Double Asking for a Monthly Ticket

  The entrance of Xinyuan Apartment.

  Miri Nishimaru, who was on spring break, was wearing a little girl's pink running shoes, a sky blue jacket, and a goose yellow headband tied her golden satin-like hair behind her head.

  While running, the ends of the golden hair bounced back and forth in the afternoon sun, looking pretty, fresh and cute.

   Along the way, many nearby neighbors greeted her when they saw her, and some tenants probably knew that Miri Nishimaru was adopted after her father passed away, and her adoptive father "died".

   Except for some elderly people who are a bit superstitious and feel that the little girl is a bit unlucky, most of the young tenants feel that this little girl is very pitiful.

   Some came back from the supermarket and looked at Miri Nishimaru standing at the door of Aragaki's apartment after running seven kilometers, and even took out some sweets that children like to eat from the shopping bag and presented them to her.

  Miri Nishimaru would thank the neighbors sweetly and then decline the kindness of the neighbors, and then continue to stand in the afternoon sun under the Aragaki apartment, raising her small head and squinting in the sun like someone else.

  When Higashinohara left, he only said that he would "leave for a few days".

  Since the day Higashinohara left, the little guy has worked hard to strictly work and rest every day, get up on time, wash, eat, exercise and study. She learned Higashinohara's "civilian exercise method" bit by bit to demand herself.

   Higashinohara often told her that the world is not as safe as it seems, and that relying on others is worse than relying on oneself. Miri Nishimaru is trying to learn how to protect herself.

  Of course, in fact, in her little heart, she hopes to surprise her big brother when Higashinohara returns.

  It's like a child who got a certificate and a little red flower at school. It would be even better if he could be praised. I think he can be happy for several days.

   But time passed day by day.

   Not only did she not get the expected praise, but she didn't even see the shadow of Higashinohara.

  For some unknown reason, Miri Nishimaru began to feel a little scared, as if in her short life, people around her kept leaving her with various "reasons" from the moment she was born.

   Mother first, then father.

   Then the adoptive father again

  When Midnight Menghui was curled up on the small bed, Miri Nishimaru also tried to reach out her little hand to catch them, but every time it was in vain.

  Sunrise and sunset,

  Time is still passing day by day.

  Miri Nishimaru didn't want to think that way at first.

  But every time I ran and passed the downstairs of Xinyuan apartment, looking at the closed door on the far left of the fifth floor, my hopeful eyes gradually dimmed.

  The little girl gradually fell silent.

   Now, is it finally Big Brother's turn?

  She couldn't help but think so.

  Miri Nishimaru took out the small mobile phone in her pocket, and on the screen was a photo of her eating sukiyaki with Higashinohara, aunt Kolotia, and sister Xia Li next door.

In the photo, Higashinohara is sitting in the center with a smile on his face. Next to him, Xia Li is holding chopsticks and staring intently at Gulu Gulu, who is making sukiyaki. Next to him is his aunt Kolotia, who is wearing an apron to help prepare the dishes. Miri Nishimaru sat obediently aside.

   It should be Xia Li who took a picture of this moment with her mobile phone. In the background, there is a dark night outside the window, and there are cold rain marks on the glass.

  Everything in the room is warm.

  The Gulu Gulu hot pot is very warm, the warm yellow lighting is very warm, every inch of light and shadow of everyone is very warm, just like a warm family of four.

  Every time Miri Nishimaru saw her face, two shallow dimples could not help but appear.

  It was like at this moment, under the afternoon sun, Miri Nishimaru standing in front of the apartment building raised her little hand to smooth back the soft blonde hair that was floating on her forehead.

  She stared blankly at the screen saver of her phone, and opened the text message box with Higashinohara.

  The last text message sent was on March 6, just before ten o'clock last night.

   "Big brother, I ran seven kilometers in one breath today, and I feel like I have become better again, but I am definitely not as good as big brother. Well, I will be even better when you come back."

  Brother said that he has a regular schedule and goes to bed at ten o'clock every night.

  So Miri Nishimaru edited the text message after eating, and waited until 9:55 before clicking send.

   But there is a red exclamation mark in front of the text message, which means the sending failed.

   Scrolling forward, for several consecutive days, the messages were sent out at 9:55 every day.

  Most of this information is not very nutritious. It is just a little girl at this age talking to herself, what did she do today, what did she eat, where did she go, and so on.

  But the sending failed without exception.

   One post in the middle seemed to be missed, so another post was posted below.

   Well, there is also a red exclamation mark in front of it.

   It's just that the little girl doesn't seem to care, it's something she needs to do every day.

   It's like going upstairs and coming home after exercising every day, saying “I'm back” to my aunt Kolotia who prepared the meals, and then my aunt said “Welcome back”.

  After losing contact for so many days, Miri Nishimaru's original expectation has turned into worry, and the words she sends out every day seem to be a kind of sustenance.

   Regardless of whether Higashinohara comes back or not, as long as the big brother can reply to herself, it will at least prove that the big brother is still safe. This reason is enough for her to persevere.

  She never wanted to make Higashinohara feel burdened and become a drag on her big brother when he was doing business, so every time she sent a text message, she was about to fall asleep at night.

  But today, Miri Nishimaru hesitated for a while, and finally made a decision.

   "Big brother, are you back?"

  After editing, Miri Nishimaru felt nervous the moment she pressed send.

This is the first time she sent a message to Higashinohara during the day. After sending it, she was nervous and expectant, like walking to the podium to hand in the answer sheet during the exam. She wanted to know whether her test score had improved this time, but was also afraid of the score. After it really came out, I got a result that was not good at all.

  On the screen in the hand, the animation of the paper airplane representing the sending of the text message used to be unable to find the end point after taking off, and often returned to the original point after wandering around.

   But today.

   seems a bit different.

  Nishimaru Miri's big emerald green eyes shone slightly like gems, as if a sleepy little beast in her heart suddenly cheered up, and even showed a joyful look.

   It was at this moment that her little head came to her senses.

  The message has been sent!

   Does that mean that big brother has received the news?

  Nishimaru Miri couldn't help thinking like this in her small head, she was stunned for a moment, and suddenly, her phone vibrated with a "buzz".

   "You have a new message, please check it."

  The moment Miri Nishimaru saw the news clearly, the little beast in her heart, which had been listless these days, almost danced happily, with an unstoppable smile on her face.

   is the big brother!

  She immediately opened the message.

   "Big brother, are you back?"

  The other party's reply was very short, only one simple word.

"Um."

  Under the warm afternoon sun, Miri Nishimaru couldn't help but look up, her brows and eyes were filled with uncontrollable joy, and her small body quickly ran towards the apartment building like a gust of wind.

  On the balcony on the third floor.

   Satoru Aragaki, who was slumped on the deck chair basking in the sun, put down his teacup, looked at Miri Nishimaru who rushed up from beside him in surprise, and suddenly realized after being stunned.

Huh?

   Is that kid back?

  Speaking of it, he seemed to have never seen Higashinohara since the spring break. Aragaki Satoru even thought that the kid who loves money like his life went to the club to find a job and joined the ranks of giving warmth to rich women.

   After running up to the fifth floor like the wind,

  Nishimaru Miri nervously walked to the door of Higashinohara, and found that the door was still tightly closed.

  But the text messages on the mobile phone will not be fake, and the big brother is even less likely to deceive himself.

   Gathering up her courage, Miri Nishimaru raised her little hand and tried to go up and knock on the door.

   Unexpectedly, just as her little hand touched the door that was closed tightly in the past, the door opened in response.

  Nishimaru Miri pushed the door and entered, and the next second, he covered his mouth in surprise and stood at the door in a daze.

In the dusty room, I saw a familiar figure with a pale face lying on the tatami in the middle of the living room. He was wearing a clothes that didn't fit very well. His slender eyebrows trembled slightly, and he seemed to have fallen into a deep In a coma.

  When Higashinohara woke up, it was already evening.

   Lying on the tatami, from this angle, he could see the dark city outside the window and the lights were just coming on. His nose twitched slightly, but he smelled a familiar scent of rice.

  Higashi Yehara turned his head to the side, under the warm yellow light in the room, a tall woman in an apron was cooking porridge on the induction cooker not far away with her back to her.

  Seven days.

   It is not long to say long, and it is not short to say short.

  It can make him feel unfamiliar with all the familiar things in daily life, and it happens to be able to trigger memories when he smells certain smells and sees certain people, and resets the memory back to the original point.

   Squeak—!

  The door of the room was pushed open.

   "I came back and bought miso and pickles."

   "Well, Higashino-kun likes porridge and pickled vegetables very much, let's put them over there."

   "Thank you, auntie."

   "How can there be any words."

  The two were talking, Nishimaru Miri inadvertently glanced in the direction of Higashinohara, a look of great joy appeared on her small face, and she rushed over at a trot.

"Big brother!"

  At this time, although Higashinohara's complexion gradually returned to ruddy, it still looked extremely haggard under the warm yellow light.

"You are finally back."

   "Yeah, finally back."

  He nodded with a chuckle, and patted Miri Nishimaru's small head.

During those days in hell, he had thought a lot about returning to this warm hut again, and returning to the little girl who was so attached to him, but it was only at this moment that he realized that everything was so warm and flat, nothing at all. Too much explanation necessary.

You're back.

   Yes, I'm back.

  For them, such a dialogue,

   is enough.

  Dengdengdeng—!

  At this time, a familiar sound of hurried footsteps came from the corridor outside the door.

   Higashinohara and Nishimaru Miri looked at each other, and Nishimaru Miri, who was in a good mood, squinted and said, "It's Sister Xia Li, she also heard that you came back sick and said she wanted to see you."

   "This guy doesn't seem to be such a kind person." Higashinohara Fue smiled wryly.

   Sure enough, when Xia Li came to visit Higashinohara, she was holding an apple and a banana she didn't know where to break. Those who didn't know thought she was going to the zoo to feed the monkeys.

  As soon as she entered the door, Xia Li's nose twitched twice, and her eyes fell on the induction cooker.

   "Smells so good, sister Kolotia!"

  Kolodia said with a smile, "Hehe, Xia Lichan hasn't had dinner yet, let's meet up later."

   "Okay, okay." Charlie nodded like a pounding garlic.

  After confirming the whereabouts of today's dinner, she moved to Dong Yeyuan's side, staring at the yellow and haggard Dong Yeyuan under the light and shaking her head for a while.

  She glanced at the little girl, Miri Nishimaru, who was standing aside, opened her mouth somewhat hesitantly, and then swallowed the words again, with a look of hesitant to speak.

   Seeing this scene, Higashinohara felt a little puzzled, and couldn't help asking, "What's wrong?"

  Xia Li slammed her mouth, and finally said, "Dongye, as a good friend, there is something I don't know whether I should say or not."

  Best friend?

  We are not that close.

   Let you eat a few meals and become good friends.

   Higashinohara complained in his heart, but said in his mouth, "I don't know if I should say it, so don't say it, let's eat first."

  Xia Li choked when she heard the words.

  She was just being polite out of habit. There is no one who can hide her words. If she really wanted her not to say that she could suffocate herself, she quickly said, "Dongye. Did you go there?"

There?

  What does this guy know?

   Higashinohara glanced at the two restless long ears on her head trembling slightly, and asked calmly, "Where are you talking about?"

   "It is a place to give warmth to rich women."

Xia Li paused for a moment, then glanced at the haggard Higashinohara, and her expression became firmer, "I asked the boss why I haven't seen you these days, the boss said you are so handsome, and you probably used your vacation to go to Now that you have a part-time job, although I envy you for making money, I still want to say that is wrong!"

  This time it was Higashinohara's turn to be dumbfounded. Even if it was a part-time job, I would do it openly.

   Make money? He took his life for it.

  Why is it wrong.

  Wait, Higashinohara was caught up in a series of words behind Xia Li, and only then realized the first sentence she said, "Send warmth to the rich woman".

  I'm more or less sending warmth to strange demons.

  He immediately gave her an annoyed look, "Your boss has a hole in his head, be careful, don't fall into it."

   "Huh? Did the boss guess wrong?" Xia Li looked at Higashinohara in surprise.

   "It's true that there are ghosts!" Higashinohara said.

  Although Miri Nishimaru is young, she has been deeply influenced by the information age, so she is not too confused to understand what the two of them are talking about.

Although she didn't know where Higashinohara had gone for more than a week when he disappeared, she still said to Xia Li seriously, "Sister Xia Li, big brother is going to do something very important, not what the boss downstairs said Like that."

   "Oh! Let me tell you. Here! This apple and banana will be your apology." Xia Li's eyes were full of reluctance.

   Higashinohara definitely does not want this kind of apology.

  But in order to make this **** hurt, he not only took it, but also peeled one on the spot and ate it.

Um? Why does this banana taste so weird? Could it be that it was given to him after a long time?

   Dinner is of course four people.

  Although Higashinohara doesn't like to see this **** very much, compared to the time when he lived under the icy sun every day in that lost **** world

  Xia Li, a girl from the Okinawa countryside who came to the new big city of Tokyo to pursue her dream, at least wins when she treats people warmly and sincerely, and the atmosphere becomes very relaxed and happy when getting along.

  After dinner, Kolotia cleaned up the dishes, Xia Li and Miri Nishimaru helped, and the "patient" Higashinohara sat on the tatami and continued to rest.

  He was a little bored and turned on his mobile phone, scrolling through the news, wanting to see if there are any follow-up reports on the big commotion at Sky Tree today.

  Higashi Nohara resolutely evacuated after completing his mission today. He was not too sure about the outcome of the battle between the man from Xihai and the Fifth Inquisitor, so he couldn't help being curious.

  He originally thought that the big figures of the Shangjing Judgment Department are now putting official pressure on Wano Country, and all relevant reports about what happened in the sky tree today may have been suppressed long ago.

   Unexpectedly, there were not many reports about what happened to the sky tree after he left, but there were a lot of short videos and screenshots of the scene circulating on the Internet.

  The source of these materials is not any news media, but an outdoor anchor named "Kaka" who has been suspended by the water pipe network so far.

   Higashinohara flipped through the enthusiastic and even excited comments below, and his expression suddenly became a little subtle.

  Whether it's a short video or a screenshot, it's basically a picture of him fighting frantically with the verdict Adeline in the Tianwang corridor in the [World Destroyer] state.

  Someone even made a moving picture of him grabbing the Sixth Judgment and causing Adeline to shake back and forth on the neck.

  In the perception of the public, those who challenge the rulings of the powerful institutions of the world government are all warriors who secretly want to.

  But compared to Captain Dragonfly and the man with the fox face last time, the man in today's video caught the attention of people all over the world in an instant.

   Don't say anything else.

  Just the 3.5-meter-high, muscular and powerful body that is comparable to a demon **** is enough to leave an indelible deep impression on everyone's mind.

  Especially the animation of Adeline's animation of the opponent's violent fall in the Tianwang corridor for the sixth verdict is full of an almost indescribable magic.

  Many people want to watch it a second time after watching it once.

   brainwashing

   It's too brainwashing.

   Next update, at 8 o'clock tomorrow morning, enter the next episode.

   So far this month, 18.4W words have been updated, which is only one step away from the small goal of 200,000 words.

   Double at the end of the month, ask for a ticket.

   Yeye must stand up for the last two days!
