Daily Spy Life in the Detective Conan World

Chapter 374 Take them away, this level of food poisoning requires immediate stomach lavage!
Although he could prank Yuri in the afternoon, before that, Xia Chuan needed to withstand the side effects of Yoel's cooking.

Plates of exquisitely presented dishes were served, the freshness of vegetables, the richness of meat, and the intensity of spices intertwining and filling the air, tantalizing the senses.

But Xia Chuan knew that it was all an illusion!
The defining characteristic of Yoel's cuisine—it appears similar on the surface but is fundamentally different!
If Mihana knew this cooking skill, even if Conan and Shinichi Kudo worked together, they wouldn't be able to find out if someone committed murder.

Even if they knew the situation, they couldn't take the blame because no poison could be detected in the food.

"Brother-in-law, have some of this slice of meat."

Although Yuri has a strong resistance to Joel's cooking, that doesn't mean he's unaware of his sister's situation.

Having relied on each other for over twenty years, he knew all too well how Joel's cooking would affect others!
"it is good"

Xia Chuan stared at the slices of meat Yuri had placed in his bowl, cold sweat beading on his forehead. He knew Yuri meant no good.

A large slice of meat at the start, danger—

Looking up, Joel's expectant gaze fell upon him.

"Um, actually I have a kind of mental fastidiousness and I don't like it when people put food on my plate. Here, take this back."

"Then please pick it up for me, sister!"

Yuri sneered inwardly. Trying to escape this lunch? No way!
Joel was surprised that after an hour together, his younger brother and Xia Chuan seemed to have gotten along much better.

Yuri's words made a lot of sense, and Joel naturally picked up a meat dish for Xia Chuan, which wasn't the first time he had done so.

Then they cast expectant glances.

After Miyamoto Yumi's long-term training, she is now completely different from before!

The younger brother's behavior these past two days has given us a glimpse into this.

"Then eat!" Yuri seemed to sprout two black horns from his head, whispering like a devil in Xia Chuan's ear, "You don't actually think your sister's cooking is bad, do you?"

"of course not!"

Xia Chuan wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, but his face remained expressionless.

"Tilt-degree~tilt-degree~tilt-degree~"

"Strange, has another case occurred nearby?"

Joel strode to the French windows and glanced out; the sound was still relatively far away.

"It should be an ambulance; someone might have food poisoning."

Yuri chuckled and stared intently at Xia Chuan, ready to shout out any strange behavior from him.

"Is it here?" Xia Chuan murmured, took a deep breath, and his gaze was as resolute as a warrior heading to the battlefield: "I'm going to eat!"

Xia Chuan grabbed his chopsticks, gave Yuri a "you just wait" look, and then the chopsticks appeared as if in a phantom, quickly filling the bowl in front of him.

"Ok?"

Yuri was immediately shocked. He had thought that Xia Chuan would run away in a panic, but he never expected that Xia Chuan would actually confront him head-on!
This quantity! That's interesting!

Yuri glared back defiantly, then did the same thing, piling his own bowl full, even fuller than Xia Chuan's.

"Alright, stop fighting over it. I can make more if it's not enough."

thank you!
Xia Chuan was startled. Without saying a word, he shoved the bowl in front of him and opened his mouth to feed it.

Yuri was no less formidable.

The two of them were like children competing to see who could eat the most, swallowing their food whole without even tasting it.

The food was put into his mouth, and Xia Chuan swallowed it without chewing. He thought that this way he could probably eat a few more bites. If he chewed, a single piece of meat would probably make him collapse on the spot.

As Yuri ate, tears began to well up in his eyes without his noticing.

This is normal. Eating her sister's cooking always brings tears of emotion to her eyes. Yuri took a moment to wipe away her tears and glanced at Natsukawa, then she was shocked!
Half a bowl is gone!
Xia Chuan not only didn't collapse, but he ate with even more gusto, even though his face was a little pale and tears were welling up in his eyes.

But it must be said, Xia Chuan is a hero!

Yuri suddenly began to accept this brother-in-law. Perhaps he truly loved his sister to have gone to such lengths for her.

Should I let go?

Yuri felt a pang of sadness as images flashed before his eyes.
"Xia Chuan, I admit it."

Before Yuri could finish speaking...

Xia Chuan's hands trembled like leaves, his eyes closed, and his head, losing its support, slammed onto the table with a "bang".

Yuri nudged Xia Chuan's shoulder, but when he didn't get a response, he silently withdrew what he was about to say.

He admitted that his brother-in-law was really not up to par; to become his brother-in-law, one had to at least be able to afford one meal from his sister!

"Xia Chuan, are you alright?" Joel's face was pale. This reaction seemed so familiar, but the pots and pans had all been disinfected, and Yuri was perfectly fine, even shedding tears of emotion.
The two were in a flurry of activity, and just as they realized they should call an ambulance, the sound of "drip drip drip" grew louder as it approached.

Not a moment.

boom!
The door was kicked open, and a young doctor in a white coat and glasses strode in.

Two nurses followed behind him, carrying a stretcher, their chests embroidered with the words "Mihana General Hospital".

Ignoring everything else, the young doctor strode into the living room. Upon seeing the unconscious Xia Chuan, his expression changed slightly. He waved his arm and said, "Take him away. His face is already like this. This level of food poisoning requires immediate gastric lavage!"

Two nurses stepped forward and placed Xia Chuan on the stretcher.

"Tilt-drop~"

Standing at the door, watching the ambulance drive away, Yuri felt somewhat confused.

Has the dispatch speed of Beika General Hospital become this fast? He clearly hasn't even called yet. Uh...?
Could it be that Xia Chuan called the ambulance himself?

Yuri was shocked. Even though he knew that eating his sister's cooking would cause food poisoning, Xia Chuan did not hesitate at all.

"It seems I really need to reconsider my mindset, perhaps regarding my sister and Xia Chuan."

Yuri returned to his room, dejected, and lit a cigarette in front of the French windows, immersing himself in childhood memories with his sister.

Half an hour later.

The taxi stopped in front of Yoel's house.

Joel helped Xia Chuan out. Xia Chuan looked unwell; her lips were pale, her face was slightly bluish, her pupils were unfocused, and she appeared listless.

This is a sequela of food poisoning and gastric lavage.

This is the state a normal person is in after gastric lavage.

Xia Chuan is certainly not a normal person. The reason he is in this state is because the squeaky wheel gets the grease.

My girlfriend's chest is so soft.

Her hair smells so good (╯▽╰), and her waist is so slim, perfectly conforming to the ergonomic curves of her arms and hands.

This meal was worth it!

"It's all my fault, I guess I'm really not suited to cooking."

The doctor said that if Xia Chuan hadn't been in a very good physical condition and hadn't had his stomach pumped in time, he probably wouldn't have survived tonight.

Disappointed, Joel lowered his head, feeling that he was destined to never be a chef.

"No, it's not your fault. It's just that my stomach isn't very good. Your cooking was so delicious that I ate too fast and that's why I had this reaction. I'll definitely be fine next time if I control myself!"

"Yuri is perfectly fine, so have faith in your cooking skills!"

After saying these words against his will, Xia Chuan gently stroked Yo'er's hair, and their eyes met with deep affection.

He vowed that he would go back and work overtime to improve his poison resistance, so that he could be like Yuri, eating while shedding tears of emotion.

If you accept Joel, you should accept his cooking skills as well.

Girlfriends are chosen by oneself, wives are chosen by oneself, and the kind of life one will lead in the future is something one can foresee.

If he doesn't want to be sent to the hospital for gastric lavage again, anti-poisoning must be put on the agenda!
Joel felt a pang of heartache and touched his sharply defined cheek: "You look a little tired. Why don't you go home and rest?"

"How can that be done!"

Xia Chuan's voice suddenly rose. He had barely made it through lunch, and he had to give Yuri a brilliant counterattack!
“Yuri needs me more than he needs to rest. Don’t be fooled by his good condition now; he’s definitely faking it.”

"Sitting in the office all year round, he probably has all sorts of health problems. Today, in addition to applying medicine to him, I'm also thinking of giving him a full-body treatment: cupping, acupuncture, and massage. After a whole set, I guarantee he'll be full of energy tomorrow!"

"Is it really that powerful?"

Joel raised an eyebrow slightly. It sounded like a traditional Chinese medicine technique. How come he had never heard of Xia Chuan knowing these things before?

Yuri was lying on the sofa making a phone call to his men when he suddenly shivered.

"Strange. It's not cold at all."

On the phone, the sycophantic underling said obsequiously, "What's up, boss? Need me to send you a sweater?"

"Just do your job well! This kind of thinking doesn't apply to our group!"

Through surveillance footage review over the past two days, the police have determined that Louis stole a car and fled towards Yamanashi Prefecture.

However, after leaving Tokyo and entering the mountains, the vehicle was completely lost.

Yuri then had his men search for the stolen car using its license plate.

Then it was determined that Louis was driving through Yamanashi and Gifu prefectures, and it seemed he would continue westward, though his destination was unknown.

However, the trail went cold after they reached Gifu.

Because Louis changed cars!
"Keep looking west. Ichiro Ishimoto might not be using this face anymore. I'll give you a new photo when I get back to base tonight."

Yuri did not give the photo of Louis directly to his underling. He planned to draw Louis's face by hand and then give it to his underling.

As for why.
Very simple!
If the photos were to leak, Louis would likely see the scene in them and recall when and by whom he was photographed.

Yuri didn't know how Rei Furuya had taken the photos and was worried that showing them directly would cause problems and expose Furuya.

After hanging up the phone, Yuri rubbed his temples, shrank his cold feet, and shifted back a little, trying to find a more comfortable lying position. However, he accidentally aggravated his wound, wincing in pain.

Damn Louis, it's been several days and his injuries still haven't healed.

"Only my sister could beat me like this! You're just waiting to die!"

Yuri was muttering curses when he suddenly heard the door open. He immediately ran over in a flash.

It must be my sister coming back.

As soon as Louis stepped into the entrance hall, he saw Xia Chuan with his arm around his sister's waist, half of his face resting on her chest, looking lewd!
"Xia Chuan, aren't you in the hospital?" Yuri's face turned red and then pale with anger. He even saw Xia Chuan give him a provocative look.

"Hmm?" Joel glared at Yuri. "What's your name?"

"Uh, brother-in-law."

"Hey~" Even though Xia Chuan's face was slightly pale, he still nodded with a smile and then explained, "I was just worried about you. The medicine needs to be used with certain techniques. Simply applying it won't be very effective. I'll give you a set of tendon-dislocating and bone-setting techniques later. It's very effective!"
