It's just a grocery store.

Chapter 206 Finally Home

The highway was long and I don’t know how many times I woke up at midnight, but finally the car drove off the highway.

Maybe he had slept enough, or maybe he sensed that he was home at midnight, and he finally opened his eyes and sat up.

Seeing the increasingly familiar streets, my brain, which had been working even though I hadn't woken up yet, slowly started working, sending a signal to the director that I had arrived home.

In addition, there was a system muttering incessantly, and it did not miss the midnight hour.

System: Host, wake up quickly, let’s go back to Mihua. If you continue to sleep, you really won’t be able to sleep tonight.

Midnight: So noisy.

System: Host, ahhhh, please don’t complain about my noise. Let’s eat whatever we want tonight. I’m so hungry after sitting in the car all day!

As if sensing the system's excitement, Ye Ye, who was crouching in the passenger seat, also called out. Huang Quan laughed upon hearing the sound and said:

"Ye Ye, you know we're home, right? Smart little dog, we're getting home. We'll feed you when we get home."

Yeah Yeah: "Woof!"

Finally, the car stopped in the underground parking lot, and the three people took turns carrying a pile of things they had packed out of the car and walked towards the elevator.

Even Yeyena was holding a bag in his mouth, and Tongzi on his back was also dragging a plastic bag.

System: How insane! You actually let a weasel carry your bag? Do I think my claws can hold it steady?!

So now the system is hooked with two claws. If it weren't lying on Ye Ye's back, it would have fallen down due to weightlessness.

In fact, they didn't bring many things with them. The extra things were the souvenirs they bought. There were too many people to give them to, so even Conan had to give some to the little ones in the school, Xiaolan, and Professor Agasa.

Not to mention the temporary social circle, there were really too many gifts to give, which is why both Yeye and Tongzi had to help carry the things.

After returning home with so much difficulty, the three of them no longer had the energy to move, so they took out their cell phones and made a proposal.

"How about we eat takeout tonight? I'll order pork chop rice."

Huang Quan: "I agree. Order one for me too."

Conan nodded weakly. He no longer had the strength to speak. He was completely empty.

Because someone had laid a furry carpet on the floor, the three of them fell directly on the ground, which was very soft and warm.

The three of them didn't dare to get up until the takeout arrived. If the doorbell hadn't rang, they would have slept on the carpet all night and would have caught a cold.

Zero Hour: "Conan, go get the takeout and feed Ye Ye while you're at it. I'll clean up and put these things back in the kitchen refrigerator."

Huang Quan: "I'll throw the clothes into the laundry basket. Your clothes are all here, right?"

The two had no objection, and the three of them stood up and started to do their own things. After a while, they sat down at the dining table together and prepared to enjoy their dinner.

Traveling is very joyful, but it is undeniable that packing up after the trip is suffocating. It is simply torture to have to pack up even though you are almost dying of exhaustion.

Thinking fiercely, Lingshi stuffed a large piece of fried pork chop into his mouth, chewed it, and shoveled two mouthfuls of rice into it, and finally picked up the miso soup on the side and drank it.

Huang Quan: "Eat slowly, Conan, you should take a shower first. You have to go to school tomorrow. You should have finished your homework, right?"

Conan nodded. Although Lingshi had asked for leave for him, Huang Quan helped him get his homework, and fortunately he finished it before leaving.

The clever and smart high school student just felt that he was so smart at this moment. He could take a shower and go to bed directly later. He was so happy.

At zero o'clock, he felt very tired when he thought about having to move again later, but he felt uncomfortable not taking a shower. He could only try his best to hold on, as he had to deliver the pile of souvenirs in the corner tomorrow.

Lingshi sighed. He had clearly gone out to travel and relax, but not only did he encounter two cases, but he was also so tired when he came back. It felt like he was on a business trip.

The next day, Conan took the gifts he brought for Mitsuhiko, Ayumi and the others and went out. Huang Quan had nothing to do today and was not in a hurry to go out. Instead, he had to take a bunch of things out at midnight.

Before leaving, Huang Quan asked again the question he had just asked about breakfast.

Huang Quan: "You really don't need me to accompany you?"

Ling Shi: "It's okay, I can go by myself. It's rare for you to have a little rest, so just stay home and I'll be back when I'm done."

After saying that, he put on his big backpack and went out at midnight. If you didn’t know him, you would think he was going somewhere with such a big backpack.

The first place to arrive was the nearest Saiki's house. It was Saiki Sorasuke who was at home, which was not surprising to Reitoki. Reitoki was too lazy to be polite with him. He was just a ruthless gift-giving robot today.

Midnight: "Souvenir."

Then several boxes were placed on Assistant Qi Mukong, and regardless of the fact that the latter could not lift them and almost fell, he immediately fled from the spot at zero o'clock.

In this way, the items were delivered to several houses at midnight. Matsuda, Ida and others who were not at home directly pried open the door and broke into Matsuda's house at midnight to wait for Matsuda to deliver the items later.

When he was finally sent to Maori's house, Xiaolan was not at home because she was at school, and Lingshi just wanted to drink some water, so he went into Harrow to see what was going on inside.

When I went in, I saw that Midorikawa had returned to work. The only difference from usual was that there was an extra pink-haired waiter.

This is the reinforcement that Zero Hour invited, Saiki Kusuo. Zero Hour tricked him into coming to help by offering him unlimited desserts while working.

He would also come to help in the evening after Mao Lilan got home from school. Midnight was an opportunity for her to earn some pocket money, and her father could just have dinner at Harrow.

Lingshi handed the gift to Midorikawa.

"Here, I've left your portion, as well as Xiaozi's and Kusuo's. They've already been signed for."

Saiki Kusuo nodded to show that he understood, and Xiao Zi came over with a look of surprise.

"Ah, is this Mr. Midorikawa's compensation for being away for a few days?"

Midorikawa gave a wry smile and was unable to respond to the teasing. Reiji continued her words:

"Yes, yes. I was worried about leaving you alone. I was traveling and Midorikawa suddenly had something happen. It was really scary. Fortunately, I found someone to help."

Xiao Zi: "Haha, I was just kidding. The two temporary workers that Mr. Ling Shi found were really helpful. It doesn't matter if Mr. Midorikawa is not here."

Midorikawa: "What? So it's time for me to retire? Then I have no choice but to step down."

Midorikawa pretended to take off his apron, and Xiaozi hurried over to stop him. The few of them laughed and joked for a while before moving on from the topic and returning to the souvenirs they had bought at midnight.

I picked out some pastries and the hot spring hotel's special lanyards, which are pretty good souvenirs.

Reitoki sat here and waited for Ran Mouri to finish school. When she came in and saw Midorikawa and Reitoki, she was surprised. Reitoki handed her three gifts.

"Here, I brought you some souvenirs, and some for your parents."

Ran Mao Li was flattered and accepted it after some embarrassment. The next question was whether she still needed help. Mr. Midorikawa and Zero Toki had both returned.

This question also concerned Saiki Kusuo, and he immediately got the answer from Reiji's inner voice, and Reiji also spoke:

"It's up to you two, but as long as you come, I will pay you. I've said before, just think of this as an opportunity for you to earn some pocket money. If you're too tired from school or don't have time, Xiaolan, you can also come to help on weekends."

Mao Lilan nodded. This was what Ling Shi had said when he asked her for help. Although she didn't want to make money at first, she thought that what Ling Shi said made sense.

Dad's job is too unstable, and he needs a way out. Lingshi is just giving her a chance.
