Daily Spy Life in the Detective Conan World

Chapter 143 I don't believe it unless you prove it to me.

That night.

The Natsukawa family home was very lively tonight, with the sounds of clinking glasses and greetings frequently heard.

Kogoro Mouri, listening to the sounds from across the street, was itching to go and join the fun.

However, considering that today was the day Xia Chuan was hosting his brother-in-law, he resisted the urge to drink; there would be other opportunities next time.

But it smells so good!

The smell of alcohol was already wafting over from across the street.
Let's return our attention to Xia Chuan's home.

Inside the living room, Yuri was beaming, and his initial hostility had largely dissipated.

My mind was blank; I had no thoughts at the moment, only wanting to fight Xia Chuan to the death. After drinking, I didn't ask a single question from the questions I had initially planned.

Xia Chuan was alright. Although he had drunk quite a bit, he always had a high alcohol tolerance and remained as steady as a mountain at this moment.

However, he no longer had any intention of asking about Yuri's identity.

As for why.
"Come on! Xia Chuan, do as you please, I'll drink this!" Joel slammed his glass on the table, grabbed the wine bottle, and drank straight from it.

He sat swaying, his eyes glazed over, as if he could fall over with the slightest push.

Good guy.

They really are siblings.

The two men had similar alcohol tolerance, and they both started to feel dizzy after only a few drinks.

Xia Chuan suddenly wondered if his suspicions about Yuri were somewhat misguided.

A spy shouldn't have such a low alcohol tolerance, otherwise even if he managed to squeeze into many banquets and social circles, he probably wouldn't be able to get any information. Before the target even gets drunk, he'd probably already be passed out.

Xia Chuan pulled the bottle from Yole's hand, checked the time, and realized it was getting late. Anya should go do her homework!

"Ania, go do your homework first." Xia Chuan shook his head, determined not to let Joel drink next time.

"Ok."

Anya patted her stomach and prepared to leave, but before leaving, she moved a chair to the TV.

It looks like we'll have to watch the Bondman and Kamen Rider rerun tomorrow.

The sizzling sound of the chair being moved jolted Yuri more awake. He rested his chin on his hand, watching Anya enter the room, then glanced back at his sister and Xia Chuan, a touch of melancholy in his eyes.
"I didn't expect my sister to have a boyfriend so soon. When we talked on the phone before, I thought she was lying to me. Speaking of which, how long have Xia Chuan and my sister been together?"

Yuri still harbored some doubts deep down. He had only been urging his sister to find a boyfriend for a short time, and yet his sister had already found a man.

No matter how you look at it, it seems a bit suspicious.

He knew his sister's personality. Over the years, many people had pursued her, including many successful men with money and power, as well as many handsome men. But why did she choose Xia Chuan?

Could it be that my sister hired this actor just to appease me?

Despite his superb acting skills, he still felt there was something wrong.

His job as a police officer instilled in him a certain degree of wariness towards everyone except his sister, including his superiors.

"Hey sister, are you and Mr. Xia Chuan really a couple?"

Joel pouted, her rosy cheeks twitching for a moment, a hint of confusion appearing in her eyes: "What did you say, Yuri? Speak louder, I can't hear you."

Well, Joel was already drunk, so talking to her at this point was completely in one ear and out the other. "Mr. Xia Chuan, are you and my sister really together?!" Yuri turned to look at Xia Chuan, his expression serious and his gaze sharp, as if he were interrogating a criminal.

"Of course." Xia Chuan thought the other person was drunk and didn't pay attention to his expression. He walked to the TV cabinet, took out a photo from the drawer, and handed it to Yuri.

This was taken by Anya when the two of them were snuggling together during their last trip to Shanni Mountain. Xia Chuan plans to get a larger copy of the film developed and put it in the living room when he has time.

The photo was new, and the two people in it were laughing happily, which didn't seem fake. Xia Chuan even had his arm around Joel's waist, and their intimate appearance made Yuri indignant.

Looking at the time displayed in the upper right corner of the camera's built-in blurring feature, it's three days ago?
Yuri was still not convinced!
Although the two people in the photo are hugging and looking at the cherry blossoms, the time was only three days ago, which is not long ago!
Could this be an idea my sister came up with on the spur of the moment, just to fool him with photos so he wouldn't keep pressuring her to find a boyfriend?

The more I think about it, the more it makes sense.

Yuri, enraged, pointed at Xia Chuan and sneered, "So you really are the actor my sister hired! How come my sister has a boyfriend so quickly? I never heard her mention it before."

This photo was definitely taken hastily to appease me. Even though you two are hugging, your eyes are looking in opposite directions; you're clearly not a couple!

As for seeing the two of them having coffee together at Poirot Cafe a while ago...

Haha, maybe my sister started looking for someone to just appease her back then.

That's right, that's exactly how it is!
With clear logic and flawless reasoning, Yuri felt he had figured out the truth and breathed a sigh of relief.

Xia Chuan:.
Because this was a candid shot, not a posed photo.
"Yuri, what are you talking about?" Joel vaguely heard words like actor, boyfriend, temporary, and couple, and was a little confused: "Mr. Natsukawa is not an actor, he's in the Air Force. I heard Yumi say that any man who goes out with a fishing rod and doesn't bring back any fish the next day is considered to be in the Air Force."

"."

You, Miyamoto Yumi, how dare you slander me like this!
Xia Chuan felt indignant, but this also served as a reminder that in the future, when he used the excuse of night fishing, he should bring back a few fish the next day, otherwise it would be very embarrassing to be known as someone who "didn't catch anything".

"Fishing rod, air force?" Yuri was stunned for a moment, but he didn't care about that at the moment.

Realizing that her older sister could understand human speech, she immediately pressed on, "I still don't quite believe that you and Xia Chuan are a couple. It's very suspicious!"

"I've seen the photos, what don't you believe?" Joel was a little angry. He slammed the wine bottle on the table, causing it to crack and shatter into pieces.

"."×2
Emboldened by alcohol, Yuri was completely unfazed and asked forcefully, "How about you kiss Xia Chuan, sister? Otherwise, I can only assume that you brought Xia Chuan along to put on an act just to appease me."

Is there such a good thing?

Xia Chuan straightened his back, rubbed his hands together under the table like flies, and, eager to get moving, pulled his chair a little closer to Joel.

Hurry up, I can't wait any longer. I also suspect that I'm an actor you hired. Let's prove it to Yuri quickly.

Xia Chuan's gaze was fixed on Joel's cheeks, his rosy lips looking even more alluring with the touch of red wine.

He had been eyeing this opportunity for a long time, and now that he had it, he naturally didn't want to let it slip away. He pretended to hesitate and said, "How about we prove it to Yuri?"

Yuri narrowed his eyes. Xia Chuan's appearance and smile seemed extremely lewd at this moment. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and defilement is in the eye of the beholder.

The more he looked at Xia Chuan, the more displeased he became.

Joel was in a bit of a dilemma. Although the two were already in a boyfriend-girlfriend relationship, they had only been able to put their arms around each other's waists before. Now that his younger brother had said such a thing, wasn't this putting him in a very difficult position?

Sure enough, if you don't discipline someone for three days, they'll be climbing on the roof and tearing off the tiles.

However, perhaps due to the impulse and desire brought on by drunkenness, Joel also lost his temper at this moment, slamming his fist on the table and standing up: "Since you don't believe me, then I'll prove it to you right now!"

Okay, okay, I'll prove it right away.

Xia Chuan coughed twice to cover his excitement, and then scratched his head shyly.

Yuri, you're truly my lucky star!
