"Since it's right at the foot of the mountain, Xiaolan, I'll go there with you later."

"Ah."

When Mao Lilan thought of what Aunt Yumi had said before, her face turned red, but she still nodded slightly in agreement.

"Kaguya, Sonoko, are you guys going?"

"I'll forget it. I still have some time in the afternoon to rest, and I'm not familiar with Uncle Maori's classmates."

Suzuki Sonoko simply waved her hand to refuse, and then glanced at Shinomiya Kaguya.

Kaguya Shinomiya glanced in the direction of Ran Mouri, then slowly let go of Ren's hand.

"I'm not going either. I hope to have a good rest in the afternoon. I've been spending too much time on exercise lately."

As she spoke, Kaguya Shinomiya slowly walked to the massage chair next to Suzuki Sonoko and sat down.

The two girlfriends' intentions are very clear, even a little too obvious. Amamiya Ren knows that this is to give time to Xiaolan.

...I'm going to talk to Xiaolan later.

Kaguya and Sonoko's attitudes clearly confirmed that Xiaolan also had feelings for him.

Moreover, now that he thought about it, Amamiya Ren realized that this was a reunion of his father's classmates. After Xiaolan knew about the hot spring trip this weekend, she suggested a hot spring trip. Would a normal friend make such a suggestion?

"Then, Xiaolan, I'll go with you."

"Ah."

Chapter 255 I...can't be sure

At the foot of the mountain, in an ancient hot spring hotel called Benkei, six middle-aged people are reuniting after five years.

"Five years really went by in the blink of an eye."

Kogoro Maori couldn't help but sigh.

"That's right. After all these ups and downs, it's been so long without me noticing. The class reunion five years ago seems to be just around the corner."

Ayashiro Yukio made a sound full of emotion.

Five years is a long time for a person, but it is really emotional to have a class reunion here again after five years. It feels like the last reunion was just yesterday.

After sighing, I looked down and saw the little boy wearing glasses next to Kogoro Mouri.

"Actually, I just asked you, Kogoro, when did you get a son?"

"Five years ago, I saw Xiaolan. Now you haven't brought Xiaolan with you for five years. Instead, you brought your little son with you."

"It seems like you and Eri have reconciled."

Faced with the sarcastic words, Kogoro Mouri rolled his eyes back.

"This kid is not my son. He is the son of my friend. Recently, the couple went abroad to enjoy life and left their little son with me."

Ayashiro Yukio stared at the child in front of him with wide eyes, then turned to look at Kogoro.

"Your friend is really generous, leaving his son with a sloppy uncle like you. But it doesn't matter, Xiaolan is here. If you can't take care of him, Xiaolan can take care of him, right?"

"Who says it's not?"

Kogoro Mouri couldn't help but respond and drink, but then his whole face drooped helplessly.

"It would be easier for me if Xiaolan could take care of her. Our house isn't very spacious. It used to be enough for Xiaolan and me, but with this little brat here, it's no longer suitable."

"Ran is already sixteen, so it wouldn't be appropriate for her to sleep with a child. So, after this brat moved in, Ran moved in with Eri."

Listening to Kogoro Mouri's sigh, the five old classmates present looked at him with sympathy.

The only female classmate among the old classmates, Ayashiro Yukio's wife Ayashiro Noriko, was also a little curious.

"Kogoro, five years have passed. Xiaolan has grown into a big girl, right? She's very different from five years ago, right? Do you have any photos for me to see?"

"Whose dad has a picture of his daughter with him when he's okay?"

Kogoro Mouri has no habit of carrying photos of his daughter with him.

"I have."

Yumi Horikoshi smiled and took out a photo from her side. It was obviously a photo that had been prepared long ago.

"On Monday afternoon, I ran into Xiaolan when I was passing by the commercial street. Five years have passed, and she has grown from a little kid to a grown-up lady."

Noriko Ayaki took the photo and her eyes lit up.

"Wow! Is this the current Xiaolan? Has this child grown to this point after five years?"

Lingcheng Yukio, Omura Jun, Nakamichi Kazushi also came over together, and they were all amazed at the girls in the photos after just one look.

"Hiss! In five years, can a little kid grow up to be this mature?"

"This child doesn't look like Kogoro's daughter at all."

"really."

Hearing the slander from his three bad friends, veins on Kogoro Mouri's forehead began to pop.

"Hey! What do you three bastards mean? Can't my daughter be pretty? She'll just follow Eiri's lead!"

At this moment, Nakamichi Kazushi suddenly laughed.

"Kogoro, are you admitting that you can't give birth to such a beautiful daughter?"

"Fuck! You bastard!"

Kogoro Mouri was stunned for a moment, then he spit out something.

"No matter how much Xiaolan follows Eri, she is still my daughter. Humph! My daughter is just beautiful, are you jealous?"

The eyelids of the three men who didn't have daughters were twitching. At this moment, they couldn't help but want to teach this bastard who showed off his daughter a lesson.

Fighting won't work, and you may not win.

So the three men looked at each other, and the tacit understanding they had gained after five years made them come up with the same idea.

The corners of Ayashiro Yukio's mouth cracked, and his voice began to become a little sinister, with a strong sense of watching a good show.

"Kogoro, just be happy now. I want to see how you feel when Xiaolan finds a boyfriend."

Just this one sentence instantly made Kogoro Mouri's high spirits, which were caused by showing off his daughter, become gloomy.

The guy who wanted to steal his daughter's cabbage had an accident some time ago, but judging by the way his daughter is growing up, she will definitely have no shortage of suitors in the future. He is just afraid that this day will come too soon.

Besides Kogoro Mouri, the other person who doesn't want that day to come is Conan Edogawa.

He risked everything and chose to track down the dark organization that caused his body to turn into that of an elementary school student. For this purpose, he even chose to abandon his identity as Kudo Shinichi and completely destroy his identity as Kudo Shinichi.

But it was precisely because he was courting his own death that Edogawa Conan completely lost his way out.

If the dark organization is not caught, or even eradicated, he will never be able to restore his identity.

But because of this, Edogawa Conan is the person who most hopes that the day when Xiaolan finds a boyfriend will never come.

I hope Xiaolan doesn't find a boyfriend before I catch that organization.

He is just a child now, and he and Xiaolan don’t even live under the same roof. It is hard to say what will happen in the future.

"Xiaolan, do you... like me?"

On the mountainside not far from Benkei, Amamiya Ren was asking Xiaolan in a speculative tone.

"I...can't be sure."

If she doesn't like something, Mao Lilan will give a very firm answer, even if saying 477 resignations may be relatively tactful.

But precisely because she was truly unsure, she became even more hesitant.

"As for me, I like Shinichi. This liking probably stems from when we were very young and we lived together for a long time."

"But… I'm not sure now."

In the past, Ran Mouri was very sure that she liked Shinichi, and she even thought so before the date at Dorobiga Land ended that day.

But it was on that day that she learned so many things.

For example, Shinichi was knocked unconscious with a club because he discovered two suspicious people, and was even fed a mysterious poison that caused his body to shrink into that of a child.

For example, in order to track down the organization behind the two men in black, Shinichi chose to deceive her instead of trusting her.

For example, Shinichi was still worried about her and deliberately wanted to be close to her.

If these things had not happened, Ran Mouri could still say that she liked Shinichi.

But those things happened and gradually eroded her feelings for Shinichi.

Especially the means he used in the end to move into her house, and the possessiveness he showed in pestering her even though he had clearly chosen to hide the truth.

In addition, Shinichi also ruined his own identity.

Perhaps it was at that time that Mao Lilan had completely given up her love for Shinichi. How could she like someone who had already decided to die?

"Maybe it's not that I'm unsure, but after learning about Shinichi's death, it's already certain. The uncertainty is only emotional."
