I'm in Conan, I'm not a gangster

Chapter 127: Getting on the Boat and Nervous Xiaolan (2 more)
"Damn it! They just left me like that and went there with the two of them!!"

Walking on the way home, Conan was carrying a packing box and was in an unusually low mood.

He kicked the stone next to him away, feeling very depressed.

Although I have made up my mind, I still can't avoid feeling disappointed and sad when things happen.

Thinking of the past, Conan finally sighed silently.

After returning home, he adjusted his mood, pretended nothing had happened, shouted "I'm back", and walked into the living room.

"Oh~~ You're back!" Yukiko was doing aerobics following the TV. She looked at the take-away box in Conan's hand and said while dancing, "Huh? How rare, Shin-chan. You actually brought food back for the first time!"

"This... Shiraishi-san asked me to pack it up and bring it back, saying it would be a waste to leave it in the office." Conan said as he placed the takeout box on the living table.

Yusaku, who was reading a newspaper on the sofa, was a little surprised and said, "Oh? It's only been a few days and he's back?"

Conan nodded and said, "Although there is no evidence, I think he must have received some kind of message and came back only after confirming that it was safe!"

"Given how cautious your friend is, this is very likely the case." Yusaku also felt that this possibility was more likely.

Conan continued: "After that, a customer came and asked him to go on board to investigate, so he went with Xiaolan... and asked me to pack up the food and bring it back."

"Huh?" Yukiko stopped immediately upon hearing this and said, "You mean...your classmate Shiraishi and Xiaolan went on a date on the boat?"

"It's not a date! We're going to investigate a case!" Conan emphasized this point.

"What's the difference?" Yukiko looked at her son speechlessly. She said, "Do you just want to watch them get together?"

"Mom, stop talking! I've made up my mind." Conan said in a firm tone.

Yukiko had already thought of an excuse in the past few days, so she said, "As a friend, shouldn't you help Xiaolan check it out?"

"What if that guy is a scumbag who abandons her after having sex with her? Wouldn't Xiaolan be hurt by him?"

"You don't want to see Xiaolan get hurt, do you?"

“…………” Conan looked at Yukiko in astonishment. He was somewhat suspicious whether she could read his mind and knew what he was thinking!
Seeing that this trick worked, Yukiko continued, "It's better to be on guard than to be on the safe side, right? If we find out that we were overthinking, that would be a good thing!"

"That means Xiaolan is worthy of being entrusted to Shiraishi-san!"

"From now on you can focus on solving your own body's problems!"

"………" Conan struggled in his heart after hearing these words, but he finally nodded heavily: "Mom, you make sense!!"

Yusaku, who was standing by, was speechless after hearing this.

It must be a huge blow to Shinichi for a boy to see the girl he likes being affectionate with other boys!

Just when he was about to say something, Yukiko glared at him.

Yusaku immediately shut his mouth and gave up the idea of speaking.

He felt that Shinichi was now going to have to endure all the hardships he had never experienced before, which might be a good thing for the child.

So, he decided not to care about it anymore and just let them suffer through it. It was enough as long as they were still alive.

"Yusaku, can you please help me check the situation of that ship?" Yukiko went upstairs to change clothes impatiently and said, "Conan and I will find a way to get on board!"

"Okay. Be careful. What's the name of the client?" Yusaku asked while secretly sighing in his heart.

He actually didn't want to go back to Tokyo at all.

Yukiko Tokyo is too familiar, and she makes a lot of trouble as soon as she comes back.

——————————————————————Tokyo Pier.

After Shiraishi Hui and Xiaolan got out of the car, they walked towards the cruise ship entrance with their luggage.

"Relax a little, don't be nervous." After seeing Xiaolan's tense expression, Bai Shihui took her hand and whispered, "It doesn't matter even if our identities are recognized... We are entrusted by someone, not to do anything illegal or criminal."

After hearing what Bai Shihui said, Xiaolan no longer felt as heavy a burden as before. She said embarrassedly, "I'm sorry, I... This is the first time I've done this, I'm not used to it!"

"It's okay. I was also nervous when I did this for the first time." Shiraishi began to talk to Xiaolan intentionally to ease her nervousness. She said, "There were a few times when I pretended to be someone else and was told, 'You've changed so much that I can't recognize you.' Do you know how I responded?"

Xiaolan's curiosity was aroused, so she asked, "How did you answer?"

Shiraishi smiled and said, "I just said 'really?' ... and then they didn't ask any more questions."

"Huh? Is that so?" Xiaolan was very surprised and asked, "Are they so careless?"

Shiraishi Hui said: "It's not that they are careless, but they won't pursue things that have nothing to do with them. Even if they feel strange, they won't say it out of politeness."

Xiaolan said a little embarrassedly: "Actually, I am sometimes like this too... sorry to ask."

"So you don't have to worry too much." Shiraishi Hui reminded again.

Xiaolan nodded again and again.

While chatting, the two came to the entrance of the cruise ship.

Shiraishi Hui glanced at Xiaolan.

Xiaolan nodded, unconsciously holding Shiraishi's hand, and said to the flight attendant: "I... I'm Akane Ryūmoto."

"Ms. Lu Ben, my lady asked me to pick you up here... Do you need me to help you with your luggage?" the flight attendant asked with a smile.

Xiaolan declined: "No, I can do it myself."

"Please follow me!" The flight attendant led the two people.

After entering the cabin, she introduced the interior of the cruise ship along the way.

There are restaurants, bars, KTVs, gyms, heated swimming pools and other facilities here, which is almost no different from a hotel.

A few minutes later, the plane stopped in front of a room. The attendant opened the door and stood aside: "This is your room. If you need anything, you can press the call bell and someone will come... Is there anything else you can help me with?"

"No more...thank you." Xiaolan said politely.

"You're welcome. This is what I do. I wish you two a pleasant sea voyage." The stewardess bowed slightly and left.

They entered the room with their luggage.

As soon as the door was closed by Shiraishi, Xiaolan breathed a sigh of relief. She patted her heaving chest and said, "Huh... We weren't discovered! That's great... My heart was beating so fast!"

Shiraishi Hui said with a smile: "What's the connection? She's just a flight attendant. You're so nervous before you even meet the people from the Ryūmoto family. You won't be unable to speak when you meet them later, will you?"

"This...this shouldn't be possible...right?" Xiaolan swallowed nervously when she thought about the fact that she would have to pass the tests of other members of the Ryūmoto family later.

"Don't worry, I'll be here to help you. Pack your luggage first, and then we'll go out for a walk." Shiraishi Hui said, and went into the bathroom.

At this time, Xiaolan realized that she would have to sleep in the same room with Shiraishi Hui.

She quickly looked back and found that there was only one bed!
In that case...the two of them will have to stay together tonight?

Thinking of this, Xiaolan's face began to turn red and her heart began to beat wildly.
