Conan: The Man Behind the Romance

Chapter 78 How to create the most extreme pain?
Yingsheng and Xiaolan first went to Room 413 of Building , where Xuesong Kiyoko was staying, but the ward was empty and silent, with no one in it.

They rang the bell to ask the nurse, and found out that a few minutes ago, Xuesong Kiyoko had left the hospital alone, just missing them.

Kudo Shinichi, who was with Kiyoko, had left an hour ago.

It seems that Kiyoko pretended to be hospitalized just to get rid of Kudo Shinichi.

This made Yingsheng quite regretful, and he looked at Xiaolan.

There seemed to be a trace of relief in Xiaolan's eyes: "I'm glad Xuesong is okay."

Yingsheng smiled and said, "Are you sure you only want this?"

"What else?" Xiaolan asked back.

Yingsheng shook his head: "Let me apologize to Xuesong-san alone later. The person next to me is just an insignificant passerby. It has nothing to do with you."

"..."

Xiaolan was speechless. Just as she was about to speak, Yingsheng pushed her shoulder and pushed her out the door:

"It's settled. Go visit Mr. Maori. I won't be going over. Call me when you leave."

Yingsheng knocked on the door twice and gently closed it from the inside.

Isolation between inside and outside.

The smile on his face slowly disappeared, and Yingsheng walked to the window. The breeze was refreshing, but the bright moon was obscured by a few wisps of clouds, and its light was dim.

He took out his cell phone and dialed Kiyoko's number, but no one answered. At this moment, Kudo Shinichi sent him an email. He opened it and saw that it was a list of mystery novels.

Yingsheng took a quick glance and dialed Kudo Shinichi's number, which was connected in five seconds.

"Suiyue, what's going on?"

"What do you mean by sending me the book list?"

"I sent it to Xiaolan as well. You should understand. I'm sorry to have troubled you."

"I don't understand. Also, where is Xuesong-san?"

"She was hospitalized due to allergies. Um... I'll tell you in secret, I think it's more likely that she's faking illness, but I have no choice but to go home."

"So what's the point of leaving such a big window of time for you to pester me for the entire day?"

"She can't pretend forever. As long as I keep following her, I'll always be able to discover something. At least I can summarize her behavior patterns and thinking logic."

"How long do you think this will last?"

"Ah, anyway, I won't give up." Kudo Shinichi ended the topic directly: "Suiyue, do you have anything else to say?"

Yingsheng sighed softly: "I wish you a good dream."

"Eh... That's weird. Bye."

After hanging up the phone, Yingsheng called Xuesong Qingzi again, and this time the call was finally connected.

"Sorry, Hotaru-kun, I was just taking a shower."

Qingzi's voice was still cold and gentle, as if no different from usual.

Yingsheng was silent for a few breaths. How could you get home so quickly? "The air is a little chilly tonight."

If you use any anti-inflammatory spray in your mouth, your breath will smell like mint.

"Yes, there are some. Do you want to ask me something about Kudo Shinichi?"

"No, I'm just a little bored. Is there anything you want?"

"Eh? Suddenly I mentioned this and I need to think about it carefully. Um... can you make it a little more abstract, not a real thing, like someone's pain or something like that?"

"Of course, anyone can." "Then I want my mother's pain. When she spent the money on wine and women, she met some bad people. I don't know why my photo was shown to others, and then she was harassed in a strange way. It's really distressing."

"Does she need to die?"

"Well, didn't Mr. Yingsheng advise me to make friends with time and not be impatient when encountering things?"

"To be frank, I'm not in a good mood."

"why?"

"For a woman I can't quite recognize. How should I put it... Tsk, anyway, everything is a little strange. I can't really put my finger on it."

"Oh, then let's not do that. If you act on impulse, Hotaru-kun might reveal his flaws, and the detective might find out."

"Okay, I will let Ms. Xue Song experience what hell is."

"Love you, Mr. Moon."

[Love +1]

There was a beeping sound from the receiver. Yingsheng put away the phone, took a deep breath, and his face returned to normal...

Snapped! ! !
Suddenly, there was a loud noise coming from next door, which made him raise his eyebrows and feel a little curious.

Before Hotaru could eavesdrop, he heard Maori Kogoro's impatient voice:

"I've already apologized to Eri, you don't need to worry about this kind of thing, go back quickly."

The sound is quite loud.

Hotaru couldn't hear what Xiaolan was saying, but only a moment later, Maori Kogoro's voice sounded again:

"I know, I know. Don't worry about it. The dinner tonight is good, but it's from outside. Xiaolan, you still have to cook it yourself. Don't be lazy. By the way, when did you change your cell phone? Where did you get the money?"

Another moment:
"It's still that Kudo Shinichi. He doesn't charge for solving cases. He...he..."

I couldn't finish my sentence.

Yingsheng laughed in his heart. Perhaps this guy suddenly remembered that if Kudo hadn't helped him in this incident, he would probably still be in the dark until now, and would have to stay in the detention center for a few more days at least.

But even now, in order to get him out on bail, Kisaki Eri still paid a large sum of bail.

Bang! ! !
There was another loud noise, and the door of the ward was slammed shut. Yingsheng walked towards the door, and on the way he heard Maori Kogoro's more irritable voice:

"Hey, Xiaolan, don't go! Give me back my phone, I was wrong! I didn't bet on the horses!"

thump—

When the first knock on the door sounded, Yingsheng opened it. Xiaolan's face was full of indignation. She turned around and left without saying a word. She almost bumped into a doctor on the way and knocked the alarm clock out of his hand. Fortunately, Yingsheng was quick to catch it.

Give it back and apologize.

With this interruption, Xiaolan's anger eased a little, but her tone was still full of anger: "Suiyue-kun, do you know that my father just asked me for money?"

"what???"

This really confused Hotaru. Is Kogoro Mori so bad?
Realizing that her words were ambiguous, Xiaolan sighed, "It's not that he really has no money and needs me to support him. Even if his office is closed, the rent of the shop on the first floor can roughly support his life.

only……

He just asked me about my cell phone, and I said it was given to me by a friend. He immediately looked happy and said that the person must be Shinichi. If we were officially dating, I would give him my living expenses for this month and he could use it to buy a horse.

I was so angry that I took his phone away to prevent him from gambling on the phone."

Yingsheng's eyes flickered: "Can you let me see Mr. Maori's phone?"

Betting on this kind of thing seems quite interesting.
