Traveling back thirty years to Conan, intercepting Princess Eri

Chapter 367 Hehe, the disciple is still quite useful, isn't he?

"Haha, I also think I'm pretty lucky," the rich second-generation laughed smugly, revealing his neat, white teeth.

He casually put his arm around Shizuka's shoulder, but didn't notice that his girlfriend's body stiffened slightly.

"Passengers, the bus will stop here for four hours and will continue its journey at 2 p.m. Please do not miss the departure time," the driver's loud voice came from the front row.

The group got off the bus one by one. Compared to the observation deck on the coast, the area around Ejima Shrine was much more lively.

The stone-paved path was lined with lush trees, and was filled with strolling tourists and noisy voices.

Lin Xiuyi and his group were originally walking together, but soon, only Fei Yingli was left by his side, and the others were separated by the crowd.

"Don't worry!"

Seeing Lin Xiuyi looking around as if searching for someone, Fei Yingli pouted in dissatisfaction, a charming little gesture that made her look especially adorable.

With everyone else gone, Eri Kisaki loosened her grip and wrapped her arms around Hideaki Hayashi's arm, her soft breasts gently pressing against his arm.

“Chengshi and Xiaoling are being looked after by Miss Qianying. As for the others, they are not children and will not get lost.”

The girl's voice carried a hint of coquettishness.
"Or is it that you don't want to be with me?"

"How is that possible!"

Lin Xiuyi quickly shook his head, thinking that he hadn't spent much time with Fei Yingli lately because he had been so busy.

He put aside his worries and let Eri hold his arm, and the two of them slowly walked forward along the stone path.

Eri Kisaki was pleased with his compliance, a sweet smile curving her lips as she unconsciously leaned closer to him.

Ancient cherry trees are planted on both sides of the stone-paved path of Eshima Shrine. Although the flowering season has passed, the lush branches and leaves still intertwine overhead to form a green dome.

A gentle breeze rustled the leaves, their sound mingling with the distant chimes of wind chimes.

Along the roadside, you can often see mottled stone lanterns, their bases covered in moss, telling tales of the passage of time.

“Shuichi…” Eri Kisaki suddenly tightened her grip on Shuichi’s arm.

The girl's eyes glistened with tears. She stood on tiptoe, her red lips almost touching her childhood sweetheart's earlobe: "It's been so long since we've been together just the two of us. Tonight..."

Before Eri could finish speaking, a figure suddenly emerged from behind a cherry blossom tree nearby.

"Shuichi!"

It was Yukiko; her sweet voice sent a shiver down Lin Xiuyi's spine.

Seeing Eri Kisaki linking arms with Shuichi Hayashi, Yukiko immediately seized his other arm, pressing her ample breasts against it.
I've been looking for you for so long!

"Really?"

Lin Xiu froze on the spot, feeling the distinctly different yet equally soft sensations on both sides.

"Yukiko, where did you go just now...?"

"You stinky fox!" Eri gritted her teeth, her face full of annoyance. "Can't you see we're on a date?!"

Yukiko remained unmoved, instead hugging Hayashi Shuichi's arm even tighter and shaking it playfully, "A date? How come I didn't know? Shuichi, are you two on a date?"

"You!" Eri Kisaki's face turned ashen with anger.

"Shuichi, let's go..." Yukiko grabbed Shuichi's arm and tried to pull him away.

Unexpectedly, Lingzi suddenly rushed over and hugged Lin Xiuyi from behind without saying a word.

"Onii-chan! Let's go pray to the gods together! I heard that the Benzaiten goddess here is very effective in granting blessings for love." Lin Xiuyi was surrounded by three girls and suddenly found himself in an unprecedentedly awkward situation.

Feeling the curious gazes from the surrounding tourists, Lin Xiuyi hurriedly tried to break free, only to find that the three girls had all increased their strength simultaneously.

"You, please don't do this..."

"Shuichi, you should have spent today with me!" Yukiko pouted her red lips and started to whine. "I went out to film a movie and we were apart for so long. Shouldn't you make it up to me?"

"He's already agreed to go on a date with me!" Eri retorted angrily.

"I don't care! Onii-chan, you can't leave me!" Reiko pressed her face against her brother's back and rubbed against him forcefully.

The three girls started arguing back and forth, none of them willing to back down.

Lin Xiuyi was caught in the middle, helplessly watching this sudden "battle".

"Um... everyone, calm down..."

Lin Xiuyi tried to mediate, but was completely ignored.

Just as he was racking his brains, wondering how to respond to the three's invitation, Rei Furuya's voice suddenly came from ahead.

Lin Xiu looked up and saw her apprentice standing not far away, waving anxiously: "Master, come quick, Cheng Shi is missing."

"What?" Lin Xiuyi was startled.

The three girls were also taken aback and subconsciously let go of him.

"Go find Narumi first, otherwise we won't be able to explain to Mr. Aso later," Lin Xiuyi said as he strode toward Furuya Rei.

He initially thought Narumi was truly lost, but upon getting closer, he immediately noticed Rei Furuya winking at him.
“Master, we haven’t searched that area yet,” Furuya Rei casually pointed in a direction and said in a low voice, “Hehe, my apprentice is still quite useful, isn’t he?”

After saying that, seeing Eri and the other two chasing after them, Rei Furuya quickly stopped them and pointed in the opposite direction.

“Three mistresses, let’s go over there to look for someone.”

“But what about Shuichi…” Eri Kisaki frowned.

“Master is very capable; he can handle it all by himself,” Furuya Rei interrupted. “Naruma is such a coward; I wonder how scared he must be. Let’s hurry and find someone.”

……

With the help of his apprentice, Lin Xiuyi finally managed to shake off Eri and the other two and continued his journey alone along the sightseeing path.

Soon, he arrived at a secluded spot behind the shrine, where there were few tourists and only the rustling of leaves in the wind.

There is another person here, and that is Miss Tomoko.

She was standing under an ancient cherry blossom tree, looking up at the sunlight filtering through the leaves.

Because of the words that Lin Xiuyi mouthed to Kogoro Mouri in the elevator last night, Tomoko didn't have a very good impression of him.

Upon seeing Lin Xiuyi, she immediately composed herself, a cold expression appearing on her delicate face, her red lips pressed into a straight line.

Lin Xiuyi didn't pay any attention and was about to turn and leave when suddenly a woman's angry shout rang out nearby: "What are you doing?"

Lin Xiuyi remembered that it was the voice of Jingxiang, the twin girl with ponytails on the bus.

He stopped alertly, listened carefully, and once he determined the direction from which the sound came, he immediately ran over.

Tomoko also heard the commotion. She frowned, hesitated for a moment, but still followed behind Hayashi Hideichi...
