Traveling back thirty years to Conan, intercepting Princess Eri

Chapter 337 Then pry it open with your tongue!
"...Why don't you cast a spell to put them all to sleep?" Lin Xiuyi suggested.

“This is a hospital, with people coming and going. If everyone in a ward suddenly falls unconscious, it will definitely attract the attention of others,” Akane Koizumi stretched. “Let’s just wait patiently. When it’s late at night, everyone in the hospital will be asleep, and they will definitely be tired. Then we can go in.”

Lin Xiu had no choice but to compromise, and the two of them remained suspended outside the window, silently watching the movements inside the ward.

As the night breeze grew cooler, Akane Koizumi unconsciously moved closer to Shuichi Hayashi.

"Hey," Akane Koizumi looked at the girls with great interest, then suddenly nudged Hideaki Hayashi, "Which of these girls do you like the most?"

"What's it to you?" Lin Xiuyi frowned impatiently.

"Tell me!" Akane Koizumi persisted. "Your cousin with twin tails? Or Eri Kisaki with long, straight black hair? Or that girl who looks like a delinquent... It can't be that older sister with purple hair who's much older than you, can it?"

"I like them all the most, okay?" Lin Xiuyi replied irritably.

"Ugh...scumbag!" Akane Koizumi made a face. "If you ask me, I shouldn't have let you go back, lest you cause trouble."

Before she could finish speaking, Lin Xiuyi had already reached out and pinched her rosy cheeks, pulling them forcefully to both sides: "Try saying that again?"

"I'm going to rub it! I'm going to rub it!" Akane Koizumi cried out in pain, tears welling in her eyes.

Time passed slowly, and soon it was past midnight. The hospital became quiet, the lights in the corridors became even dimmer, and occasionally the sound of footsteps could be heard from afar.

In the ward, the youngest patient, Lingzi, finally couldn't hold on any longer and fell asleep by the bedside, her face still streaked with tears.

Narumi was so sleepy that he started yawning, and his eyes were almost closed. Tomizawa Chikage told him to go back to his ward to rest, while she stayed here to keep Hayashi Xiuyi company.

Despite their exhaustion, Eri Kisaki and Midori Orikasa persevered and stayed by her bedside.

Lin Xiuyi and Koizumi Akane exchanged a glance and nodded outside the window.

Akane Koizumi softly chanted an incantation, and a faint light flashed, causing Chikage Tomizawa and the other two to immediately fall into a deep sleep.

At the same time, their invisibility spells were also dispelled.

Fortunately, the hospital had quieted down by then, and no one noticed anything unusual about them.

The two tiptoed into the ward.

Lin Xiuyi looked at the girls with heartache: Eri Kisaki was slumped against the wall, Midori Orikasa was leaning against a chair, and Chikage Tomizawa had fallen directly to the ground.

He quickly carried them to the empty hospital bed next to him.

"Hmph, you're already feeling sorry for me?" Akane Koizumi suddenly became irritated. She impatiently stomped her foot, put her hands on her hips, and urged, "Hey, do you want to turn back or not?"

"Of course I want to," Lin Xiuyi said after settling the three girls, then turned to look at his little cousin who was clinging tightly to his arm.

He tried to pull his arm away, but Reiko was holding him too tightly, so he had to give up.

"Hurry up!" Akane Koizumi urged impatiently again.

“Let’s begin,” Lin Xiuyi said, walking up to Koizumi Akane.

The apprentice witch took a deep breath and began chanting a complex incantation.

As her clear voice echoed in the ward, a semi-transparent blue figure slowly rose from the doll—it was Lin Xiuyi's soul.

"Ah!" Akane Koizumi suddenly screamed, covering her eyes with her hands, but her fingers were wide open. "You, why aren't you wearing any clothes!"

"How was I supposed to know the soul state was like this!" Lin Xiu frantically covered her private parts. "Stop looking! Proceed to the next step!"

Akane Koizumi continued chanting the incantation, her face flushed. Lin Xiuyi felt himself being pulled by an invisible force, his entire soul twisted into a thin ribbon of light, which was then sucked into his body by Akane Koizumi like noodles.

When he regained consciousness, he was already possessing Akane Koizumi's body.

Now, only the final step remains: Akane Koizumi kisses Hideichi Hayashi's body, sending his soul back.

Standing by the bed, looking at Lin Xiuyi lying on the hospital bed, Koizumi Akane felt complicated, her heart pounding like a deer.

She tentatively bent down several times, but didn't kiss him, her eyes filled with hesitation.

"I...I can't do it," the girl muttered softly, her ears turning bright red as if they were about to bleed.

"Hey, stop dawdling!" Lin Xiuyi urged in her mind. "Think about it, it's just a soulless shell, like kissing a doll! What's so hard about it?"

With no other choice, Akane Koizumi had to steel herself, slowly bend down, and kiss Hideaki Hayashi's lips, her lips trembling slightly.

When her lips gently touched Lin Xiuyi's lips, a strange electric current instantly flowed through her entire body.

Lin Xiuyi watched expectantly, but after waiting for a while, there was still no movement.

"What happened?" Lin Xiuyi asked in confusion, "Why didn't I go back?"

Akane Koizumi suddenly sat up straight, her face as red as a ripe apple: "No! If you keep your mouth shut, your soul won't get through!"

"Then pry it open with your tongue!" Lin Xiuyi said impatiently.

"Huh? We...we're going to do this again?" Akane Koizumi instinctively covered her mouth with her hand, her eyes wide with horror. "This...this is French kissing, isn't it?"

"This is a medical procedure!" Lin Xiuyi argued righteously, "Just like a doctor performing artificial respiration!"

"How could they be the same!" Akane Koizumi muttered, her face flushed. At this point, she had no choice but to stop thinking about it.

The apprentice witch took a deep breath, closed her eyes, and trembled as she bent down again.

As she gently pried open Lin Xiuyi's lips, a powerful suction suddenly came.

Lin Xiuyi's soul was drawn back into her body as if caught in a whirlpool, following the kiss.

When Lin Xiuyi opened his eyes, the first thing he saw was Koizumi Akane's face, which was very close to his.

The girl's cheeks were flushed, her soft lips were still pressed against his, and her clumsy tongue pressed against Lin Xiuyi's lips, preventing them from closing.

Lin Xiuyi was about to chuckle and remind her that she was already back.

Unexpectedly, the ward door was pushed open, and Chengshi stood in the doorway holding a blanket: "Sister Qianying, I've brought you blankets..."

The little guy was halfway through his sentence when he saw Akane Koizumi bending down to kiss Hayashi Hideichi.

This shocking scene immediately stunned Xiao Chengshi, his eyes wide open, and the blanket in his hand fell to the ground.

Akane Koizumi was startled by the sudden sound and quickly opened her eyes, only to see Hayashi Shuichi looking at her with a mocking expression.

That bastard! His soul had already gone back, and he didn't even warn me! He's taking advantage of me again!
The apprentice witch quickly straightened up, frantically wiping her mouth, her face flushed red.

"Tongue..." Narumi, realizing what was happening, asked in disbelief, "Onee-san, why did you stick your tongue into Shuichi's mouth?"
