"Alright! What are you standing there for? Come on in!"
Mingmei smiled brightly and waved to the two of them. Even though her body had shrunk, her gentle and tender personality remained unchanged.
"Good~"
..........
The living room of the villa.
Akemi skillfully retrieved tea bags from the tea cabinet, quickly brewed a pot of hot tea, and served it to Natsume and Shiho, who were sitting on the sofa.
"Mingmei, are you already quite familiar with the villa?"
Xia Ye picked up the exquisitely crafted teacup that looked very high-end and took a sip. Hmm, she couldn't tell if it was good or bad...
"Yes, I've already shown Miss Tia around the entire villa today."
Akemi put down the tea tray, sat on the other side of her younger sister Shiho, and smiled with narrowed eyes:
"Miss Tia is amazing! She knows the location of everything in this villa!"
(ahcc)
"Miss Tia?"
"That's Miss Tia, the AI assistant at the villa!"
Akemi looked up at the ceiling, her eyes gentle: "I feel like she's a real life, not just a program."
"Ms. Akemi, thank you~"
The female voice coming from the ceiling was still gentle, but it was only gentle; there was no emotional fluctuation.
"I also believe that Tia is a real life~" Xia Ye smiled slightly:
"However, Akemi, you should still call her Tia, otherwise it sounds a bit too formal..."
"That's true~"
From now on we'll be living together, so it's definitely better to just call each other by our names.
Akemi waved towards the ceiling:
"Hello, Tia~"
“Mingmei… zzzz—” Tia’s voice paused slightly, then—
"Hello, Akemi!"
Her voice remained gentle and emotionless, but the three people present felt that she was more like a human being.
"Oh, right, Tia~"
Xia Ye suddenly thought of something and said:
"Grant Mingmei secondary master privileges~"
"Tia understands!"
...........
I was chatting with the two sisters in the living room of the villa.
Before we knew it, it was already six o'clock in the afternoon.
"I'll go cook!"
Mingmei stretched lazily. She was already wearing a cropped sailor uniform, and as she stretched, her entire fair and slender waist was fully exposed. Noticing a gaze on her navel, her face turned slightly red. She quickly put her hand down and pulled the hem of her top down a little.
"Summer Leaves~"
Shiho's voice drifted over from afar.
Xia Ye coughed lightly, quickly averting her gaze, and retorted, "I couldn't help myself, I couldn't help myself..."
"Humph!"
Shiho gave him a cute little eye roll.
However, I felt a little resentful. It wasn't that I was jealous of my sister, but that even when my sister shrank, she still had a decent figure, while I would become a flat board. How annoying!
"Jingle Bell--!"
The phone rang, and Shiho reached into the sofa cushions with her little hand, pulled out her phone, and looked a little surprised.
"Xiaolan?"
The call is connected.
"Shiho, is the lab still busy?"
Upon hearing this, Shiho understood Ran's meaning, glanced at Natsume beside her, and replied:
"I'm fine. Is there anything I can help you with?"
"If you're not busy, would you like to come over to my house?" Xiaolan said cheerfully, "Your favorite Yoko Okino is at my house!"
Chapter Sixty: Yoko Okino's Dinner Party
Time goes back half an hour.
A black sedan was parked on the side of the road downstairs from the Mouri Detective Agency.
Yoko Okino opened the car door and got out.
Her long golden hair was tied back, her delicate face was lightly made up, she wore a light pink trench coat, and slim-fit jeans that hugged her leg curves. Combined with her still-present radiant glow, she looked youthful, beautiful, and full of energy.
"Yoko——"
The agent, Yamagishi Sakae, opened the car trunk and pulled out several high-end gifts, saying with a helpless look:
Are these gifts really necessary?
Why send so many gifts when it's just a normal case that I've hired a detective to investigate?
Besides—"Apart from the two bottles of wine, the rest of these gifts are for girls. Are we here to visit Detective Mouri's daughter?"
"Mr. Yamagishi, stop complaining~"
Yoko Okino smiled charmingly and walked upstairs.
"You have a daughter yourself, don't you know that being nice to someone else's daughter makes a father happier?"
"I know that~"
Yamagishi Sakae certainly understood this principle. What he didn't understand was, "We're not refusing to pay the commission fee, so why do we need to give gifts?"
It seems that Yoko has been acting strangely for the past few days. Could she have been driven to mental breakdown by the stalker?
Should we see a psychiatrist?
......
Tuk-tuk-tuk-!
Maori Detective Agency.
A knock on the door was heard.
Xiaolan glanced at the time subconsciously: 5:27...
This guest has arrived at just the right time; the firm is about to close in three minutes!
but--
If we ask for help, Dad will probably be upset. Yoko Okino's variety show is about to start, and he'll cry if he misses it!
Tuk-tuk-tuk-!
The knock on the door sounded again.
Clearly, neither of the two men outside was willing to open the door, so the guest was still being left outside.
Xiao Lan's pretty face darkened, and she walked out of the kitchen.
Second floor living room.
The news was playing on TV, and Kogoro Mori stared intently at the screen, waiting for the variety show to start in a few minutes.
Xiaolan no longer wanted to be angry with her father; it was too exhausting!
She looked at the other person in the room—Shinichi, who had shrunk and was now called Conan. He was engrossed in reading a book called "Detective Samonji Series," completely ignoring the knocking.
Ran didn't believe that Shinichi, with his keen senses, wouldn't have heard the knocking.
He's just pretending not to hear!
"Haha~"
Xiao Lan curled her lips into a cold smile.
It's true that you can only see many flaws when you get close to someone.
Shinichi is not only malicious, but also so lazy. How come I didn't see it sooner?
Oh well, I'm going to stay with my mom after I finish cooking anyway, so why should I care about them? I finally managed to get my mom to let me help my dad cook a meal after school this afternoon, and seeing how they behave, I might as well go to the dojo and practice karate for a while!
Tuk-tuk-tuk-!
The knocking sounded again, the rhythm unchanged, clearly indicating that the guest outside was a very cultured person.
Xiaolan felt a little apologetic.
She quickly went forward, opened the door, and then she saw an incredibly familiar, beautiful face.
"Go...go Yoko!"
"Yoko, where is Yoko? Yoko's show hasn't started yet, has it? Hehe, Miss Yoko!"
Her father's shouts came from the living room. Seeing the strange look in Ms. Yoko's eyes, Xiaolan's pretty face turned slightly red, and she clenched her fists, wishing she could punch her shameful old father to death!
"Is this Xiaolan?"
Yoko Okino ignored the strange voice coming from the other side and looked at Ran standing in front of her.
Slender and petite, with a delicate and adorable face, dressed in simple home clothes, with a gentle and graceful demeanor—is this the heroine of this world?
"It's me, hello, Ms. Yoko!"
Ran was also sizing up Yoko Okino in front of her. As an idol star, her beauty goes without saying, and her temperament is also approachable and charming. She doesn't have the arrogance of many big stars. However, what is most eye-catching is that she exudes amazing charm at all times, as if she wants to show all the hidden beauty.
The Radiant Buff is truly amazing!
"What?! Miss Yoko?!"
Kogoro Mouri finally realized what was happening, rushed to the door in three strides, and immediately gaped open in disbelief, saying:
"It really is Yoko Okino!"
Sakae Yamagishi frowned. Could this kind of detective really be reliable?
........
"So, Ms. Yoko is being harassed by a stalker and wants me to investigate for you, right?"
On the sofa in the living room, Kogoro Mouri scratched his head and laughed loudly:
"Miss Yoko, you've already come all this way, and you've brought so many gifts. I'm so sorry!"
"No, they're just some simple gifts."
Yoko Okino, with a gentle smile on her pretty face, said softly:
"If Mr. Mori can help me solve my stalker problem, I'll offer you a million yen as a service fee!"
One million...
Kogoro Mouri's eyes lit up.
Yoko Okino is very beautiful, but the one million yen price tag is also very appealing!
You should know that when he investigates extramarital affairs, he usually charges 100,000 yen each time, occasionally 200,000 yen, and 1 million yen is already more than two months' worth of his income!
"Don't worry, Yoko! Leave it all to me!" Kogoro Mouri patted his chest and assured him, "I will definitely take care of that stalker for you!"
"Thank you very much, Mr. Mori!"
