In the reception hall, Qing Shuijing, who was unaware of the flaw in the disguise mask on her face, had crouched down and was about to wake up the Maori father and daughter who were unconscious on the ground.
And just a few meters behind him, Suzuki Ayako held the still sobbing Suzuki Sonoko and looked at him, with hesitation and struggle flashing in her eyes.
The crack in Qing Shuijing's mask on the lower side of her cheek was so obvious that Yuanzi didn't notice it just now because she was immersed in sadness.
However, this kind of luck obviously cannot happen every time. If this continues, Mr. Maori, Xiaolan, and even those children will definitely notice...
By then, Jingjun will definitely...
What will happen?
Suzuki Ayako didn't understand why she was hesitating.
It was obvious now that her seemingly perfect fiancé had either been hired by someone a long time ago, or he had been deceiving her from the beginning for some purpose that she didn't know. , wearing a disguise mask and approaching her...
No matter how she thought about it, for her to have the true face of this person with ulterior motives exposed like this, it should be a thing of great benefit and no harm.
Yes, there is no harm, expose his disguise, ask him about his intentions in doing all this, and then let the man in front of you accept legal sanctions according to the situation...
There is nothing wrong with this, and it can even be said to be the most appropriate choice.
But……
Suzuki Ayako, however, has been unable to make up her mind.
In her mind, the memories of spending time with Qing Shuijing in the past few months kept flashing back. These memories seriously interfered with her judgment, making it impossible for her to make the choice that she thought was the most suitable.
"Mr. Mori?"
In front of him, Qing Shuijing had already begun to wake up Mouri Kogoro.
Suzuki Ayako stared at this scene with her eyes, her heartbeat began to accelerate, and even her hand holding Suzuki Sonoko subconsciously tightened.
"Sister?" Suzuki Sonoko, whose shoulder was pinched, raised her head, her eyes were red, and she looked at her sister in confusion.
She did not respond to her sister. At this time, two opposite thoughts were constantly stirring in Suzuki Ayako's mind.
She knew, she knew very well, that the reason for her hesitation was actually very simple.
"Mr. Mouri?" Qing Shuijing called Mouri Kogoro's name again. It could be seen that Moori Kogoro's eyes rolled twice as a result, as if he was about to wake up.
【I like him. 】
Her heart accelerated faster and faster, and the sound of her heartbeat seemed to burst her eardrums. Countless noises that she could not hear were filling her mind, which made Suzuki Ayako's breathing quicken unintentionally.
She spoke her answer in her heart.
Even though she already knew at this time that her fiancé was not as simple as he seemed. He must have many secrets that he kept from her. Even the two of them getting along in the past few months might have been brought by him. Deliberately approaching with impure thoughts...
She knew all this in her heart, but she just...
"gross profit……"
"Shizuo-kun!"
Finally, when Qing Shuijing wanted to wake up Moori Kogoro again, Suzuki Ayako called out to him, with even a hint of urgency and panic in her tone.
When she called out this title again, Suzuki Ayako suddenly felt that all the noise that had previously filled her brain and made her feel inexplicably irritable disappeared at this moment.
Her whole body seemed to have lost all strength, and her body that had tensed up suddenly softened at this moment. She was originally held by Suzuki Sonoko, but now she was leaning on Suzuki Sonoko's body.
"Sister, sister, you are sweating a lot!"
At this time, Suzuki Sonoko also noticed that for some reason, her sister suddenly broke out in a lot of cold sweat, and even her close-fitting shirt was soaked through.
[I am really a hopeless fool...]
After calling out that nickname, Suzuki Ayako said in her heart as if she was mocking herself.
[Obviously I know there is a question and I know the most appropriate answer, but still...]
"Ayako? What's wrong?"
Sensing something strange about Suzuki Ayako, Qing Shuijing quickly stood up and ran over, holding her shoulders and asking worriedly.
"I'm fine, I just feel a little uncomfortable suddenly..."
She smiled and shook her head, then rested her head on Qing Shuijing's shoulder. Suzuki Ayako used this method to cover the mask crack on the lower side of Qing Shuijing's cheek, and did not make Suzuki Sonoko next to them feel any pain. Opportunity to notice it.
"Is it because of the previous explosion? Tell me, where exactly does it feel uncomfortable?" Qing Shuijing did not help her up deliberately, but just raised his hand to support her shoulders and asked quickly.
At this time, Suzuki Ayako remembered that Qing Shuijing seemed to know a lot of medical knowledge. She had asked before, but Qing Shuijing only told her that his mother had received a doctorate in pharmacology before, so she was confused. I had some understanding.
Her mysterious fiancé is really versatile...
"Don't worry, it's just that I feel a little uncomfortable suddenly. I'll be fine if I take a rest... By the way, Jing-kun."
Once she made her choice, she no longer hesitated. Suzuki Ayako, who didn't want Shimizu Shizu to be delayed any longer, said:
"I remember that there are masks stored in the locker room behind the guesthouse. It's in the warehouse on the third floor. The previous explosion probably didn't reach there. You go get them. When we leave later, everyone will Put it on?"
"Why?" Qing Shuijing asked.
"Jingjun, think about it, there are so many terrorists outside, and our identities are special. If we are discovered by those terrorists when we leave, and are recognized by them, what if they capture us? Isn’t it bad to use a hostage to threaten Dad?”
"But……"
Listening to Suzuki Ayako's words, Shimizu Shizu wanted to say that if they were really discovered by those men in suits, it would not matter whether they were wearing masks or not. Of course, he would definitely take them out safely...
"please……"
Hearing Qing Shuijing's hesitation, Suzuki Ayako raised her head and looked at him with almost pleading eyes.
From her angle and distance, she could clearly see the crack on the underside of his cheek.
【My skin is so good...】
Through the slender cracks, she could clearly see the fair complexion of Qing Shuijing under the mask, Suzuki Ayako suddenly thought in her heart.
[Think about it, even if you take off this disguise mask, you should still be a handsome man, right? 】
[But, why did Jingjun wear a mask to approach me again? 】
[Or, on the night we met, were you just wearing this mask and doing something that couldn't be told to the outside world? Is that why you were so lost at that time? 】
【Who are you...? 】
Resisting the desire to raise her hand to touch Qing Shuijing's cheek, Suzuki Ayako just looked at him quietly.
"good."
Although she felt a little confused in her heart, Qing Shuijing didn't ask anything in the end and just nodded.
