Chapter 309 So Ning is a female knight
Chapter 309 So Ning is a female knight
……
"Alright everyone, the countdown is about to begin!"
Tokiwa Mio's secretary, Sawaguchi, walked onto the stage with a timer and a Go piece in her hand.
"3, 2, 1, start!"
As the 30-second countdown began, the participating guests all kept their heads down and silently counted down in their minds.
Qi Ming, on the other hand, seemed particularly at ease, looking around to the left and right.
Then, in a moment of casualness, more wallets belonging to unlucky fellows appeared in the backpack.
"..."
Ai Haibara also participated in the game, counting silently with her eyes closed.
But the shadows flickering through her eyelids made her slender eyebrows gradually furrow.
Coupled with the constant reports of flags being raised around her, Ai Haibara grew increasingly anxious.
After the shadow flickered left and right several times, Ai Haibara finally couldn't help but open her eyes and shout loudly at Qi Ming:
"What the hell are you doing here! Can't you just play the game properly?!"
"..."
"Holy crap?!"
Qi Ming was stunned for a moment, then his nerves snapped back to reality and he exclaimed in surprise.
Because Ai Haibara was speaking at a normal volume, and everyone was focused on mentally counting the time, the banquet hall was relatively quiet.
Everyone was shocked when they heard a child speaking Tibetan in a tender, childlike voice, and they all turned their attention to it.
Feeling the strange looks from those around her, Ai Haibara's face visibly turned red.
What did I just say?!
No, it's all Qi Ming's fault. He kept swaying around and disturbing my Dao heart!
Then, when playing games together at home, he started randomly speaking Tibetan, which led him astray!
"Ai, what's wrong?"
Ran Mouri and Sonoko Suzuki were quite close to Ai Haibara, so they immediately came over to check on her.
Meanwhile, Ai Haibara's friends across from her also gathered around.
Recalling what Ai Haibara had just said, the naive Ayumi whispered:
"I had a feeling that Haibara-san just... spoke a really impressive foreign language!"
Ai Haibara's face turned even redder, and she said in a soft, sweet voice:
"What I just described was, 'tap, tap the horse's hoofbeats' rhythm! Yes!"
"Imagine the rhythm of a horse's hooves in your mind for a few seconds. Every four hooves make one second. This way of counting the seconds is more accurate."
"Oh, so that's it."
Everyone then nodded in realization.
I've learned something great! I didn't know there was such a trick to it.
Just as everyone was about to silently count using Ai Haibara's so-called "horse-riding technique," they realized what was happening.
How many were they counting to just now?
Qi Ming remained silent, but gave Ai Haibara a thumbs-up.
They have a certain air about them, and they can even turn black into white.
Although it was unnecessary, it cleverly eliminated a lot of competitors for us. Well done.
Ai Haibara kept her head down; all she wanted to do now was crawl into a hole in the ground.
"Hi!"
"Hi!"
Ai Haibara successfully confused the numbers in the minds of a group of people, but many still raised their flags and shouted slogans.
Qi Ming looked at the timer in his eyes, and when the time was right, he grabbed Ai Haibara's hand and raised the flag.
"I'm ready!"
"I'm ready!"
"Okay, stop!"
After the two voices, Sawaguchi also pressed the stopwatch at the same time.
"Please, this lady and this gentleman, oh, and this young lady, please come forward to the stage."
Three?
Besides myself and Ai Haibara, there are actually other experts?
Qi Ming turned his head and saw Kogoro Mouri, who was covering the back of his head and grinning foolishly as he approached.
Wow~ Could this Kogoro Mouri really be a master?
Tokiwa Mio couldn't help but cover her mouth and chuckle when she saw the three people approaching:
"It seems this is truly an honor for our Tokiwa Group. In our 30th anniversary game, we also guessed 3 people correctly."
As soon as Tokiwa Mio finished speaking, she was met with praise from the guests in the audience.
"Mr. Mori, you're quite something."
Qi Ming said to Kogoro Mouri.
Kogoro Mouri waved his hand modestly, but replied with pride:
"Ms. Miyano, I'm a famous detective, and I always have a clock in my heart!"
This is a lie.
Kogoro Mouri had long forgotten that he had counted to that number because of the noise, and only happened to raise his hand.
"Considering there are three participants and only two prizes, we are going to add an extra prize."
Tokiwa Mio pondered for a moment before speaking.
People from large conglomerates and families tend to value metaphysics.
The same applies to Tokiwa Mio.
This might actually be a good omen right now, so she has to spend money to keep this good fortune.
"Hmm, a car, a bicycle... How about we downgrade the bicycle by one gear and upgrade the second gear to a motorcycle?"
Tokiwa Mio smiled at the three of them.
Kogoro Mouri nodded without hesitation.
These were all rewards that were obtained for free, so even if you only get a bicycle, it's still a win.
Of course, it would be even better if it were the convertible.
Qi Ming shook his head without any objection.
He's guaranteed to win at rock-paper-scissors, and he wants both the convertible sports car and the motorcycle.
After all, he has a knack for winning rock-paper-scissors.
Simply throw a punch normally, use the standard Sianwistan technique, and then change the gesture to your desired one after the opponent throws the punch.
I highly recommend that everyone who owns a Sinwiss give it a try.
What model of motorcycle is it?
Ai Haibara asked Mio Tokiwa with a keen interest in her eyes.
Tokiwa Mio was taken aback, then smiled:
"Little sister, you can have whatever style you want, as long as you get second place."
Tokiwa Mio had already put Haibara Ai's earlier criticism of her out of her mind, and her tone was quite friendly.
After all, at first glance, this little girl might have been worried about me, but she just didn't know how to express it.
Although a large part of the reason might be that the girl is quite cute, so we should forgive her.
"You're also interested in motorcycles?"
Qi Ming glanced at Ai Haibara in surprise.
"What? I used to ride a Harley."
Ai Haibara curled the corners of her lips into a rather arrogant smile.
Qi Ming frowned, and after a while, he spoke.
"My apologies, I didn't realize you were a female knight."
Qi Ming has become a stereotype.
Ai Haibara looked at Qi Ming with some confusion.
"...I have a feeling you're thinking something very impolite."
