I'm in Detective Conan, but it's a chaotic battlefield.

But tonight, Chen Nuo first braved the storm to find her, and then jumped into the sea without hesitation to help her find her mother's belongings.

The rapid and intense offensive launched in a short period of time caused Shiho Miyano's resolve to waver slightly.

Why don't we find an opportunity to tell him the truth?

Shiho Miyano felt that she could no longer deceive Chen Nuo in the face of his actions.

.

Chen Nuo had no idea what Shirley was thinking.

He jumped down largely because of the body of Hatamoto Tatsuo.

Of course, he wouldn't refuse if he could also improve his chances with Sherry.

After all, he wasn't sure how long this strange relationship with Sherry would last. It would be good if he could gain some favor with her so that she would be gentler when she drugged him.

But Chen Nuo regretted it as soon as she went to sea.

It's fucking cold.

It felt like he had fallen into a liquid nitrogen tank. Within seconds, he felt his limbs stiffen and he accidentally swallowed several mouthfuls of icy seawater.

This caused his body temperature to drop even faster.

Moreover, in the turbulent waters, it is difficult to maintain balance, and the difficulty of moving forward in the water increases dramatically.

Chen Nuo was taken aback; the situation didn't seem as optimistic as he had imagined.

But since he's already down here, we should at least give it a try. If it really doesn't work, we can just have someone pull him up.

Chen Nuo glanced at the corpse, which was about ten meters away from him. The golden hair of Hatamoto Ryuo was wet and looked like lifeless seaweed. Miyano Shiho's amulet rope was stuck on Ryuo's earring.

Chen Nuo took a deep breath and swam towards the corpse with all his might.

Perhaps it was because so many changes had occurred that night that even God couldn't bear to see it anymore, which is why Chen Nuo's operation to rescue the body went exceptionally smoothly.

In less than ten minutes, he tied the body to himself and was pulled onto the deck by the others.

However, in just ten minutes, the icy seawater had already made his limbs numb, and he was unable to untie the ropes himself.

Shiho Miyano and Ran helped him untie the ropes, while the rest of the people went to deal with Tatsuo Hatamoto's body.

"Here you go." After untying the rope, Chen Nuo wiped the water off his face and handed the amulet containing the ring to Shiho Miyano.

"Thank you."

With just two simple words, Shiho Miyano displayed remarkable restraint.

Logically, in this situation, she would deliberately act moved to tears to reinforce her status as his "girlfriend".

But in fact, that's just her personality.

Even Shiho Miyano herself didn't realize that she had unknowingly taken off her mask and shown Chen Nuo her most authentic self.

Afterwards, Chen Nuo went back to his room to take a shower, and it took him a long time to relax so that his limbs were not so stiff. Then he gathered everyone in the hall and brought the series of events to a close.

Because Chen Nuo witnessed the murderer's actions, the deduction process became much simpler.

Soon, Ichiro Hatamoto was forced to kneel on the ground and repent.

Chen Nuo got what he wanted—

The Soul of Hatamoto Gozo*1

Hatamoto Tatsuo's soul *1

Shiho Miyano's enigmatic, tender gaze *1

Ran Mouri's resentful gaze *1

Everyone was happy after the incident was resolved smoothly.

Some people found their mothers' belongings, some found new "working people," and some were able to find new love after their husbands died...

Conan, however, seemed a little unhappy.

He had already figured out the killer's true identity based on the clues from the breadcrumbs, but unexpectedly, this foolish guy was caught by Chen Nuo while committing the crime.

That's incredibly stupid; you deserved to be arrested.

However, since this case wasn't solved entirely through deduction, Conan felt it was alright; at least he hadn't completely lost to Conan in terms of reasoning.

What really annoyed Conan was that Ran was incredibly nervous when Chen Nuo went into the water, and later even ran over to help him untie the rope.

Because everyone knows that Chen Nuo's girlfriend is Shiho Miyano.

So everyone was looking at Xiaolan with strange eyes, but she didn't notice at all.

Also, although Conan has only met that woman named Shiho Miyano a few times, he always feels a sense of familiarity with her.

It was as if the two of them met frequently.

Where exactly did I see her before? Conan fell into deep thought.

.

After finishing his reasoning, Chen Nuo returned to his room, eager to check his findings.

But no sooner had he entered the room than a knock sounded on the door.

Could it be Shiho Miyano?

Although she seemed somewhat indifferent when he handed her the amulet.

But Chen Nuo clearly noticed that the way she looked at him was strange, and when they were reasoning in the hall earlier, she had been staring at him with an incomprehensible gaze.

Did I overdo it with the affection level? Could this guy be falling for me?

You absolutely must stay calm and not do anything irrational.

If a sudden, unexpected conflict were to occur, resulting in death, he might have to go to war with the Black Organization for Sherry's sake.

Chen Nuo wandered to the doorway, lost in thought.

But when he opened the door, he found that Xiaolan was standing in front of him.

"Xiao Lan? What brings you here..." Chen Nuo started to say but then saw Xiao Lan holding a bowl of noodles, so he changed his words and said, "Thank you."

Xiaolan smiled gently: "Let's go inside and talk."

She naturally carried the bowl of noodles into Chen Nuo's room.

Perhaps because she had been standing in the rain for a long time, Xiaolan's clothes were no longer wearable, so she changed into a white standard bathrobe.

As we passed each other, the scent of her shower gel instantly overpowered the aroma of the noodles.

However, because Xiaolan has a slender figure and her breasts are not as well-endowed as Shirley's, the loose white bathrobe did not reveal any strange areas for Chen Nuo to admire.

It doesn't feel much different from when I wore my karate training uniform.

Logically speaking, Xiaolan shouldn't have brought any spare underwear, right?

In other words, she is currently in a vacuum state?

Thinking of this possibility, Chen Nuo subconsciously shifted his gaze from the steaming noodles to Xiao Lan's fair, bare feet in slippers.

After closing the door, Chen Nuo sat down at the low table in the guest room and slurped noodles.

Xiaolan sat upright on the edge of the bed with her hands on her lap. Her back was straight, and her delicate heels peeked out from behind her slippers. Her slender ankles were like exquisite works of art, captivating all who saw them.

Chen Nuo had already experienced the sensation of bare feet once before—when Xiao Lan kicked him away, he experienced it intensely.

Although it was only a brief encounter.

But the delicate and smooth skin on the instep, the soft and fluffy feel of the soles, and the slightly intoxicating fragrance all left a very deep impression on Chen Nuo.

"Slurp slurp~"

Chen Nuo looked at Xiao Lan's fair and tender bare feet and slurped up several mouthfuls of noodles.

"Is it a bit bland? Shall I get you some pickled vegetables to go with your rice?" Xiaolan stood up and was about to leave.

Chen Nuo: "It's okay, this is quite appetizing."

Xiaolan blinked, not quite understanding what he meant.

"Just sit there, like you were just now," Chen Nuo instructed Xiao Lan.

Xiaolan obediently carried out the instructions.

However, perhaps because she hadn't had much free time all night, Xiaolan was also a bit tired, so she didn't wear slippers properly, even though she always paid great attention to her image.

She half-pushed her feet out of her slippers, swinging her legs back and forth, the slippers swaying on her toes, displaying her freshly washed, clean, and fragrant bare feet to Chen Nuo.

"Slurp slurp~"

The sound of slurping noodles echoed continuously in the room.

If I fall into the water, will you jump in to save me? — This is the question Xiaolan has always wanted to ask him.

However, after chatting for a while, Chen Nuo finished all his noodles, and Xiao Lan was too embarrassed to ask.

She inwardly berated herself for her weakness while glancing at the clock on the wall.

It was already so late, and Chen Nuo had finished her noodles, so she had no reason to stay here any longer.

Although the reason of "waiting for him to finish eating and then taking the bowl away" is also far-fetched, it is at least an excuse.

Chen Nuo finished her noodles, but she stayed. At least she couldn't get over it in her heart.

Xiaolan sighed, stood up, and prepared to leave with her bowl of noodles.

Just then, Conan and Sonoko's voices rang out from outside the door.

"Sister Sonoko, I think Ran might be looking for Brother Chen Nuo." Conan's voice came from the corridor.

Sonoko: "No way? How could Ran just go into a boy's room so late?"

Conan: "You can just go in and ask."

The two voices gradually drew closer.

Xiaolan panicked immediately.

Sonoko had actually tried to chat with her before, but she brushed it off by saying she wasn't feeling well.

Ran couldn't ask that question in front of Sonoko, so she shook off Sonoko.
