Chapter 182: Christmas

"Ah, I know, that's one of the search routes as well."

In response to Conan's reminder, Tang Ze nodded with a smile and said, "Don't worry, like we go out to work, we usually work in pairs, and when this happens, the night patrol of the Jiaofan Office has also become a team of two." ”

"This world is really not peaceful."

While taking a small bite of the cake, Gray Yuan listened to the conversation between the two, and couldn't help but sigh: "It's clear that Christmas is coming, but this kind of thing will happen, I feel that Christmas is dyed with a trace of blood, obviously I don't want people to have a good holiday." ”

"Well, this kind of case always happens inadvertently, but that's what we do."

Tang Ze smiled helplessly, and then secretly complained and added: "Especially in this world, it's strange that cases don't happen frequently. ”

After chatting for a while, Tang Ze got up to say goodbye to everyone and left Dr. Asasa's mansion.

The next time we meet, I guess it's time to meet at the opera house on Christmas Day.

Because the New Year is less than two days after Christmas, it is rare for Tang Ze and others who have no case to help set up decorations in the entrance hall.

Folding screens, straw-woven ropes, and pine leaves and bamboo-stuck doors resembling gourds with a small orange on top of them are mirror cakes used to worship the gods.

These things are the representative decorations of neon symbolizing the New Year, and the couplets that will be pasted in Tang Ze's hometown for the New Year are of the same nature.

Of course, this neon New Year is actually very short, and it is only a three-day holiday from the 1st to the 3rd, and Tang Ze estimates that it will be almost over when he goes home by then.

However, this can't resist the excitement before the approaching New Year, no matter what happens throughout the year, at least in the past two days, people's faces have gradually increased smiling.

Of course, there is also the Christmas congratulations that we are experiencing at the moment.

This is also a relatively important day in Neon, but if you want to bring out the festive atmosphere, it still depends on the large and small shops on the street.

Under the banner of Christmas, employees dressed in Santa Claus costumes and made various promotions on the street.

In particular, eye-catching desserts such as cake shops will be set up outside the store to facilitate the purchase of nearby customers.

Tang Ze and they are no exception, they bought the cake and everyone cut and ate it together in the office, which can be regarded as a perennial busy, a little busy.

Everyone is an adult, and they don't spend too much time at home, coupled with the particularity of the work, the friendship between colleagues is also very deep, unlike other general companies, which are intrigued all day long.

That night, because there was no work, everyone in the three departments got off work early, and after settling dinner together, Karasawa set off to the opera house to meet Ayako and the others.

……….

The winter night dawns late, and it is almost six o'clock, but the sky is completely dark.

But the prosperity of the city and the lights of thousands of homes make this dark night bright and bright.

It's Christmas Eve tonight, and people use the excuse of the holiday celebration to start the nightlife with laughter and laughter.

Countless couples walked down the street towards their date destinations, and children laughed and laughed in anticipation of Santa's gifts.

Even in the hospital, mothers with big bellies are looking forward to the birth of a new life.

After all, this will be one less holiday...

Ahem, just kidding, it's a good wish for the child.

"Thank you~"

In the warm pink ward of the hospital, a young woman with a stomach takes the water cup handed by her husband with a gentle smile on her face.

"How? You okay? Are you feeling okay? The husband sat on a stool on the side and looked at his wife with concern and asked gently.

"It's completely fine~" The ponytail gently stroked her bulging belly, and her face was filled with a gentle smile of motherhood.

"By the way, Ryosuke, didn't you say you'd do the night cleaning tonight?" The woman seemed to suddenly remember something, looked at her husband and said, "It's all this now, isn't it too late to hurry up?"

"Well... Because the due date is not tomorrow, I thought about it, or I would have taken a leave of absence. The man named Ryosuke looked at his wife and said with concern.

"What are you talking about?" The woman smiled helplessly with the cup, "I'm fine, you're too nervous, and didn't you say that you agreed to do a night shift?" Do it. ”

"That being said." Ryosuke rubbed his nose and looked at his wife and said, "But don't you want me to accompany you here?" ”

"It's okay for me to do it myself." The empathetic wife smiled softly, then wrapped the scarf around her husband, "Which place is in charge of cleaning today?" ”

"I'm probably going to have to clean a lot of places." Ryosuke stretched his neck to facilitate his wife's movements, and replied, "But there is a bus in front of the opera house that picks us up." ”

"That's... I'm leaving, I'll come back tomorrow morning. The man smiled and said goodbye to his wife.

………

In front of the opera house, when I came to the hall at this moment, I didn't wait to look carefully for Ayako and the others, and soon I heard an enthusiastic shout from the garden, "Brother-in-law and brother-in-law ~ here and here ~"

Looking for the source of the sound, Tang Ze soon saw Ayako and his party.

And the Maori Kogoro and Concubine Eiri who were supposed to appear in the middle did not appear, and in place of the two, it was the Kuroki Heiji and Toyama Kazuha from the relationship.

"It's Christmas, right? Why did you two come to Kanto and don't have to spend the holidays with your family? ”

Coming to Ayako's side, he skillfully took his arm, and after holding Rouyi, he greeted Ayako with a smile, and then Tang Ze turned his head to look at Hattori Heiji and asked strangely.

"It's not our dad yet, let's visit our friends here in Kanto for them, so I came with Kazuha."

Heiji Hattori smiled and explained, "I went to visit the Maori Detective Agency after being a guest, but I didn't expect to be in time for the free opera performance, thank you so much for your hospitality." ”

"It's okay, my dad doesn't want to come anyway, and my mom works overtime, so she only has dinner with me, and she doesn't have time to watch the opera."

Xiaolan smiled and said, "I'm still worried about what to do with the ticket that Sister Ayako gave me, it just so happens that you, you and Ye are here." ”

"Anyway, thank you for your hospitality, I've always wanted to come to the Senshui Opera House to listen to an opera, but I didn't expect the opportunity to come so quickly~"

He Ye smiled and looked at everyone and invited: "When you come to Kansai to play, you must contact me, and I will entertain you well when the time comes." ”

And just as everyone was chatting enthusiastically, Conan on the side also came to everyone's side with the elated three little ones.
