Conan: The Man Behind the Romance

Chapter 154: Yingsheng's Desire and Xiaolan's Depression

Yingsheng drove his car at a speed of over 180 in the city.

The rapidly receding neon lights turned into discontinuous lines of varying lengths, as if containing some kind of information. Along the dim moonlight, the data stream rose into the sky, and under the starry sky, there were turtles and snakes circling.

Yingsheng closed his eyes for a second and then opened them.

The world became clear again, the chanting in the ears turned into the whistling wind, the strong incense lingering around the nose became faint, and the firefly traced its source and found that it came from the girl in the passenger seat.

A certain desire suddenly grew from the bottom of my heart and gradually spread out of control.

Yingsheng believes that his current weak human body has degraded his consciousness, but sometimes, there is no need for him to pursue rationality too much.

The car was parked in a dark alley before the Mihua Central Hospital was seen.

Yingsheng's breathing became slightly heavier, and the background noise of the headphones disappeared at the same time.

It was Qingzi who temporarily turned off the communication.

After turning off the car, Yingsheng moved his neck, but before he turned around, the cell phone rang. Yingsheng took a look and raised his eyebrows slightly.

It’s Xiaolan.

He picked up the phone and pressed the volume button. The call was still pending, but the ringing had stopped.

He turned the phone over and placed it on the armrest.

He raised his hand and pinched Vermouth's chin, then turned to his side. Yingsheng looked at her carefully for a few seconds, constantly changing the angle, then smiled slightly and turned her head towards the car window on her side.

Yingsheng lowered the passenger window halfway, laid the driver's seat as flat as possible, and lay down.

Regulate your breathing.

I sincerely pay my respects to you…

Ten minutes later, Yingsheng, who had a little more murderous intent, got back on the road and called Xiaolan back:

"Sorry, Xiaolan, something happened before."

"Well...are you about introducing a girlfriend to Nakamichi?" Xiaolan asked in a very strange tone.

Yingsheng was slightly stunned: "How do you know this?"

"Nakamichi called me not long ago, and also called Sonoko. I called Shinichi and he said he called him too, and he said the same thing."

Xiaolan's tone became increasingly strange, as if she was feeling a sense of uneasiness and novelty about something so bizarre.

Of course, I am mostly nervous.

This made Yingsheng even more curious: "What did he say? I don't want to be a light bulb, so I didn't say it in front of them."

"He said……"

Xiaolan paused for several seconds before giving up and speaking: "Nakamichi said that from today on, he is Miss Hope's dog."

"puff--"

Yingsheng really couldn't hold it back and immediately burst into laughter: "Hahahaha, is he serious? Hey, hey, this is the first time we meet, isn't it a little too soon to sign a master-slave contract or something?"

"Eh???"

Xiaolan was stunned on the spot: "Suiyue-kun, you, should... be..." Is this the reaction???

"Don't worry too much, Xiaolan. There are all kinds of weird games in this world. Zhongdao's declaration is just a kind of fun between them. If I were you, I would just hang up with a look of disgust when I heard the call, and warn him not to urinate and defecate in public."

"........."

Xiaolan was speechless: "Mr. Shuiyue, you are really open-minded about this kind of thing. Do you have any strange hobbies?"

"Of course, there are all kinds of them." "What are they?"

"Haha, how can I possibly tell you, is there anything else besides this? To be honest, I'm pretty busy tonight, I have at least three dates."

"…I plan to work part-time at a convenience store after the karate tournament to pay you back, is that okay?"

"In my opinion, unless you will starve to death if you don't work part-time, then it's best not to do it during your student years, especially part-time jobs like convenience stores that don't bring you advancement. It's a waste of time, energy, and talent.

You may earn one dollar at a convenience store now, but you may lose ten thousand dollars in the future. It’s not worth it.”

"Oh."

Xiaolan's tone dropped for two seconds: "Then does Shuiyue-kun have any part-time jobs to recommend? Is tutoring feasible?"

"I recommend not taking a part-time job and improving yourself. I don't even understand why you have this idea. I have clearly expressed my attitude before." Yingsheng sighed, "Suzuki-san can't possibly advise you to do this, so are you a little disappointed with my actions tonight?"

"No, it's just..."

"I can turn it down, Miss Liu Feng, but the other two things are quite important, and it will probably be twelve o'clock when we finish...

Forget it, if you really can't control the weird thoughts that pop up, then I'll show you a way out. Go to Beihua Central Hospital to assist Mr. Amuro. If you can do it without being a drag, I'll be very happy. "

"........."

Xiaolan sighed softly: "Isn't this still my family's business? Besides, I won't be a drag... Am I really that bad? This is the only thing Shuiyue-kun expects of me."

"If you act rashly before analyzing the context of the incident, good deeds may lead to bad consequences. If you think that's easy, then start from your perspective and carefully observe the whole picture of the case. Write a report and hand it in to me before class tomorrow. Can you do it?"

"…Oh, Suigetsu-kun, are you going to review the game?"

Yes, an outsider's perspective can allow Hotaru to better analyze Toru Amuro and Shinichi Kudo.

"Yes, I have to finish what I started."

Yingsheng glanced at the time, it was exactly eleven o'clock.

"Go as soon as possible, but don't tell others that you are acting because of me, otherwise you will be considered unfilial. You need others to remind you to care about your own father."

"…I am so sorry for being so unfilial."

"Haha, that's it. Is Suzuki-san with you? Give her a message."

"Yes, what did you say?"

Xiaolan glanced at Yuanzi, who was listening to the speakerphone next to her, with a curious look in her eyes. Yuanzi snorted and turned her head away, but her ears were perked up, and she listened:
"Tell her that I plan to get back together with Miss Ayako, and I hope she won't stand in our way."

beep beep-

"What are you talking about you bastard?!!!"

Almost at the same moment the phone was hung up, Suzuki Sonoko turned around and roared in anger.

But Yingsheng naturally couldn't hear it.

The only ones who heard it were Xiaolan, who stood there in a daze, and a group of passers-by who looked at her in surprise.

Xiaolan looked at Sonoko, who was full of anger, her lips moved but she couldn't say anything for a long time. What Mizuki-kun said was indeed too much, even she was very angry when she heard it. As the person involved, Sonoko was so angry when she heard it that no one could persuade her.

Xiaolan wanted to reach out to her best friend, but her hand stopped in mid-air. Although Sonoko was not angry with her because of Hotaru, the look in her eyes now...

Well, very evasive.

Xiaolan was speechless and dejectedly thought about a solution. Just when she was at a loss, the phone rang again, which brightened her eyes.

It’s still Shuiyuejun!
