That makes sense. Conan clearly provoked dangerous terrorists, yet he still has to live at his childhood friend's house.

I wonder what Conan is thinking. Doesn't he know that if his identity is exposed, it will kill the entire Mori family?

However, thanks to Conan's clever maneuvering,

Izuki Karuta is living a very carefree and comfortable life now.

"I think Mr. Izuki is luckier."

Ran Mouri breathed into Karuta Itake's ear.

The bath towel in his hand brushed past Izuki Shigeda's shoulder and fell to the floor in front of him.

"Oops, my hand slipped."

As Ran Mouri spoke, she walked up to Karuta Itake, turning her back to him.

Then he straightened his legs, bent down only his upper body, and picked up the bath towel from the ground...

Chapter 23 Helping Xiaolan rub her hands

After Ran Mouri picked up the bath towel

Sitting on a small stool, Izuki Karita casually pulled the nearby Ran Mouri into her arms.

"You've rubbed me pretty much done, let me rub you too."

As Izuki Karuta spoke, she took the bath towel.

Then have Ran Mouri face him.

Izuki Karata brought his knees together so that Ran Mouri could lean her back against his legs.

As for Ran Mouri's legs, they could only wrap around Karuichi Itake's waist.

Ran Mouri's long, jet-black hair, reaching her waist, just barely touched the ground below Izuki Karita's calves.

Seeing this, Izuki Karita first helped Ran Mouri wash her hair.

Ran Mouri closed her eyes shyly. This was the first time someone other than Eri Kisaki had helped her wash her hair, and it was a man at that.

She had assumed that her future husband would be the one qualified.

I never expected it to be Izuki Karuta...

Fearing to anger Itake Karuta, Ran Mouri dared not resist or offer any opinions.

Nearly ten minutes later, Izuki Karuta helped Ran Mouri wash her hair and put it up in a bun.

Ran Mouri looks much fresher with her hair up, and her bright red ears make her look especially cute.

Then, Izuki Karita picked up a bath towel and gently and carefully scrubbed every inch of Ran Mouri's skin.

But Ran Mouri was getting a little impatient.

"Mr. Izuki, hurry up..."

"Don't waste time..."

Ran Mouri bit her lip and urged him softly.

I've been showering for half an hour already, and I'm still not done.

At this rate, I don't know how long I'll be soaking in the bath later.

It's already 10:30. Will she be able to get back to the office before midnight?

"I deliberately washed it slowly."

"I want to take better care of you, is that not allowed?"

Izuki Qingtian teased, "If you're really in a hurry, Ran, you can take the initiative."

As soon as this word comes out,

Ran Mori knew perfectly well that Shizuka Izuki was just trying to mess with her!

But Ran Mouri really wanted to finish the body scrubbing service as soon as possible, so she had to take the initiative.

As for how to take the initiative

Naturally, Izuki Karuta, who was holding a bath towel, did not do anything.

Instead, Ran Mouri moves up and down to touch the bath towel to speed up the scrubbing process.

Watching Ran Mouri turn the tables and take the initiative,

Izuki Shizuta's smile deepened.

Twenty minutes later, Izuki Karuta acknowledged Ran Mouri's initiative to scrub her body and announced that the mutual scrubbing process was over.

Feeling refreshed, Izuki Karuta picked up Ran Mouri and they sat down in the bathtub together.

After resting for a few minutes,

Izuki Karuta prepared to give Ran Mouri another massage.

result,

"Mr. Izuki, that's enough for today."

"The water in the bathroom is so hot."

"I'm already feeling a little dizzy."

The Maori man blushed as he spoke, then got up and left the bathtub.

If this continues, her mind will become increasingly confused.

Izuki Karuta did not insist on keeping him.

Anyway, there will be plenty of opportunities in the future.

And the scrubbing I just had was a wonderful experience.

After Izuki Karita finished bathing,

Ran Mouri left only a note and had already departed.

On the way back to the Mori office,

Ran Mouri kept muttering to herself:

"What exactly were you doing just now?"

"They clearly had the upper hand at the beginning, but then..."

"She must have lost her mind. How could she be so obedient, letting Mr. Yizhu do whatever he wants with her..."

Once her mind calmed down, Ran Mouri couldn't stop feeling regret.

I thought that relying on my martial arts background,

The debt can be paid off within a week.

As a result, after several days, only one-eighth of the debt has been repaid.

Ran Mouri was already struggling to remain calm when facing Karuichi Itake.

Otherwise, they would have been more proactive in repaying even more debt.

Next time, we must take the initiative!

'We can't let ourselves be fooled like this anymore!'

Ran Mouri made a decision in her heart.

the next morning,

In a classroom at Teitan High School.

"Xiaolan, you look pale today..."

"Something seems off."

Sonoko Suzuki sized up her best friend.

It's not that Ran Mouri looks too bad.

It's actually because her complexion is too good.

Just like with Shinichi Kudo's death, Ran Mouri recovered her composure in just two days.

If that were all, it could be explained by Ran Mouri hiding her sadness in her heart.

But a rosy complexion is a bit too much...

Ran Mouri looked at her face in the mirror and quickly explained:

"It's probably because your blood pressure is a bit high that your face looks a little red."

"And I ran here this morning."

After some explanation,

Sonoko Suzuki stopped dwelling on the topic.
