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

The pressure near the castle gate eased slightly, but two pairs of eyes were still fixed on Chen Nuo.

Chen Nuo turned around and cleared his throat: "Since Miss Chris can't find a job for the time being, why don't you stay here for now? But I don't have the money to hire you, so just think of it as staying at a friend's house. You can stay here until you find a place to stay."

Vermouth nodded in satisfaction: "Thank you for taking me in, Master. I'll go prepare dinner now."

Chen Nuo: "I told you not to be so polite, and don't call me master, it feels weird."

"I understand, Master." Vermouth remained unmoved, nodded to Eri, and then turned and walked towards the kitchen.

Chen Nuo looked at Eri Kisaki with some embarrassment: "That's just her personality. She likes to joke around. She's like a bigger version of Sonoko Suzuki."

“I can tell.” Eri Kisaki smiled knowingly, then pushed up her black-rimmed gold-rimmed glasses. “Please help me move my things to the second floor, Lord.”

Chen Nuo didn't expect that Eri Kisaki would actually joke with him, so he smiled back: "What kind of guest is you, ordering the city lord around like that?"

Eri Kisaki: "So what do you want?"

"How about we remove 'city' and 'big'?" Chen Nuo said.

Eri Kisaki's expression remained unchanged as she picked up the vase beside her with her slender, jade-like hand.

Chen Nuo quickly carried the piece of wood wrapped in thick kraft paper and fled to the second floor.

Then he discovered that Ran and Sonoko Suzuki had made up at lightning speed.

Sonoko was helping Ran tidy up the room they had chosen. Ran's room was next to the largest room in the castle, which was also the master bedroom. The two of them put on gloves and were packing the things that the maids who originally lived here no longer wanted into boxes, and then they would make further plans.

Eri looked at the other side of Ran's room: "Then I'll choose this room. Open the wooden plaque."

Chen Nuo tore open the thick kraft paper and found that inside was actually a plaque—

[Fei Law Firm Branch]

Chen Nuo was speechless: "Is this necessary? Isn't this just burying your head in the sand? Or are you really planning to work here?"

“I don’t have your thick skin.” Eri Kisaki’s eyes were filled with resentment. “Besides, I might not be able to work at the firm anymore. I might actually have to work here.”

Looking at her delicate, youthful skin, Chen Nuo didn't think there was anything wrong with what she said, but he still couldn't help but pour cold water on it, saying, "Who would travel all the way up the mountain to ask you for a case?"

"Hmm? Do you think I'm not charming enough? Or are you questioning my ability to defend myself?" Eri's tone gradually turned unfriendly as she put her hands on her hips.

Chen Nuo quickly surrendered. He couldn't afford to offend this woman now. If he got sick from anger, he would regret it later: "I'm worried that you're too tired. After all, you still have to take care of Xiao Lan, don't you?"

Eri Kisaki finally smiled.

Perhaps she deliberately made Chen Nuo say those words.

Chen Nuo hung the sign for Fei Law Firm on the door of the room. Then, Fei Yingli did not go to visit her own room, but went to help Xiao Lan organize her things.

Chen Nuo was about to follow Suzuki Sonoko and ask her how she got in.

The door next to the master bedroom was ajar.

A pair of large, watery, ice-blue eyes appeared at the doorknob. Ai Haibara stretched out her small hand and beckoned him over.

Chen Nuo walked over, pushed open the door, and entered the room. He found that the room had been almost cleaned. It was clean and tidy, and from the furniture to the bookshelves covering the walls, he could feel Ai Haibara's presence everywhere.

“This is my room, and my sister’s room is next to mine,” Ai Haibara explained as she took a can of chilled cola from the small refrigerator by her bedside.

Chen Nuo took the can of cola, pulled the tab, and poured the perfectly chilled liquid down his throat: "Pfft~ This is the taste."

Chen Nuo really likes to drink cola.

Especially after high-intensity exercise, having a can can replenish lost sugar and refresh the mind.

At first, Ai Haibara would often drag her tired body and stagger to get Chen Nuo a Coke, but later, as Chen Nuo became more and more excessive, her petite body couldn't take it anymore.

Also, she longed to snuggle in his arms and enjoy a moment of peace, so she asked Professor Agasa to make a mini-fridge.

I didn't expect them to move here directly; it seems they plan to stay in this castle for a long time.

Chen Nuo was not surprised by this.

After all, Ai Haibara is different from others. She has no job or studies, and her only relative is currently living a secluded life. This castle in the suburbs is simply the most suitable place for her to live.

However, Chen Nuo deliberately put on a stern face and asked in confusion, "Strange, didn't I cancel your eligibility to stay in the castle?"

Ai Haibara: "Damn it, don't forget, I made the fireworks for your competition."

Chen Nuo: "But I didn't ask you to add your own personal touches to it."

"What's wrong with confessing to me once? Isn't that something you, as my boyfriend, should do?" Ai Haibara raised her small face and argued her point.

Chen Nuo said seriously, "The Black Organization's attitude is still unclear. The fireworks display covers such a large area; what if it puts you in danger?"

Ai Haibara froze on the spot.

Chen Nuo gently pinched her cheek and whispered, "If you're so reckless again next time, I'll spank you."

“Even when I wasn’t reckless, you still beat me up quite a bit.” Ai Haibara said sternly, then took Chen Nuo’s hand and pulled it from beside her ear to face her. Then she looked around at the furniture and said, “I’ll probably be staying here for a long time, right? If the organization’s issues are resolved.”

Chen Nuo scratched his head: "Yes, considering my financial situation, I'm afraid I'll have to live here until the child grows up."

Ai Haibara: "Come to think of it, this is the first time we've been alone in a new room by ourselves."

"What... what do you want to do?" Chen Nuo keenly sensed that there was something more to her words, and this was certainly not just because she had brought up the topic of the new room twice.

More importantly, Ai Haibara pulled out an M&M's from somewhere and stuffed it into his palm.

"No, Xiaolan and the others are still next door." Chen Nuo hesitated before speaking.

"Isn't that even more exciting?" Ai Haibara lowered her head, making it impossible for Chen Nuo to tell whether she was enduring or enjoying it. "That's something you once said to me, how about I return it to you today?"

Chen Nuo was speechless.

Normally, he probably wouldn't have let the mischievous Sherry go.

You must remove the cork, shake the bottle quickly, and then watch the liquid, now a fine foam, slowly flow out of the bottle, experiencing the sense of accomplishment that only a skilled bartender can feel.

But it's really not possible today.

There are still a lot of things to resolve. Besides the room assignments, Chen Nuo is also very concerned about the attitude of the Black Organization. There were too many people to ask Vermouth earlier, but now it's time to go and confirm it.

So Chen Nuo reluctantly pushed Shirley away, turned around, and pushed open the door to leave.

Of course, before leaving, he didn't forget to flatten the chocolate candy and collect some interest.

Ai Haibara squatted on the ground, her face flushed, glaring angrily at the doorway, until Chen Nuo's footsteps completely disappeared.

He then lifted the hem of the suspender shirt and began to examine it carefully.

.

Chen Nuo went to the corridor and went down the wooden stairs to the first floor.

Generally, the kitchens in these castles are located on the first floor, perhaps for reasons such as safety and ventilation.

When Chen Nuo stayed at the Mamiya family's castle, he also learned some knowledge about castle maintenance.

As soon as he came down to the first floor, a maid dressed in a maid outfit, with slender legs encased in white lace knee-high stockings, walked towards him carrying a teapot.

But it wasn't Vermouth.

Chen Nuo was startled: "Mingmei?! Why are you dressed like that?"

Akemi Miyano's smile vanished instantly. She walked up to Chen Nuo and complained, "Didn't I tell you that when it's just the two of us, you can just call me Akemi?"

"Sorry, I'm used to it." Chen Nuo smiled. "But you are indeed several years older than me, and you're Ai's older sister..."

"If you keep talking, the teapot might fly into your face, Chen Nuo-jun," Miyano Akemi threatened, raising the teapot in her hand.

Chen Nuo raised his hands in surrender.

Akemi Miyano's expression softened slightly, then she held the teapot and spun around in place: "How is it? Does it look good?"

The maid outfit's skirt resembled a blooming flower, and her long, beautiful legs, encased in white stockings, were exceptionally alluring.

Chen Nuo took a deep breath, and a pleasant fragrance wafted into his nostrils: "It looks good, but where did this dress come from? Did Vermouth make you wear it?"

Akemi Miyano frowned: "She said it was your idea. She said that everyone staying at the castle has to wear specially made clothes according to the castle owner's preferences. I went to the servants' quarters and saw that this dress has the least amount of fabric."

Chen Nuo quickly clarified: "I never said such a thing, this is slander!"

"Really?" Akemi Miyano tilted her head. "But those clothes are bunny girl outfits, JK stockings, and some even come in different sizes. They all seem to be your style."

"Bunny girls? And they come in different sizes?" Chen Nuo suddenly became interested. "Come on, let's go to Xiao Ai's room and tell me all about it."

Akemi Miyano took a step back, feigning the timidity of a weak maid: "Lord, I still have to serve tea and snacks to the guests."

“I am the owner of the castle, and you have to listen to me now.” Chen Nuo grabbed Miyano Akemi’s arm, her bare forearm skin smooth and slightly cool. “Besides, there are no guests here, we are all family, so there’s no need to be so polite.”

Akemi Miyano gasped, her face instantly turning a pale pink. She then lowered her voice and said, "I... I'll explain to you tonight. It's really not possible now. That outfit was stolen."

Chen Nuo: "Stolen? Who did it?"

Just as Akemi Miyano was about to speak, the sound of a metal bucket being kicked over came from the corner of the first-floor corridor: "Go and see for yourself."

After saying that, she took advantage of Chen Nuo's inattention, broke free from his arm, and ran up the stairs.

After running up to the second floor, Akemi Miyano turned around and made a cute face at Chen Nuo downstairs.

Chen Nuo smiled too.

Then he secretly decided that when Miyano Akemi explained that night, he would let her keep that cute funny face and then dirty her little face.

As Chen Nuo pondered a strange experimental plan, he walked towards the corner of the left-hand corridor on the first floor.

The walls of the castle corridor are carved with intricate patterns. Although they look quite old, they don't give off a sense of decay. Instead, they evoke a sense of history from an ancient family with a long tradition.

After Chen Nuo turned the corner in the corridor.

Something completely opposite to the simple and solemn patterns entered his field of vision, causing Chen Nuo's mouth to gape into an "O" shape.

Before him appeared two bunny girls, one large and one small.

Both women wore black rabbit ear headbands and high-slit patent leather tops resembling bikinis, with their beautiful legs encased in semi-transparent black pantyhose.

An aura that makes one blush and their heart race is overwhelming.

The smaller bunny girl didn't seem to be much taller than Ai Haibara. She was squatting on the ground, rubbing her toes, which were covered by black stockings, with a pained expression.

Before her stood a medieval swordsman puppet clad in armor, its head already severed from its body. The sound she had just heard was from this tin can.

Judging from the scene of the crime, it is highly likely that Tie Zhuyu was just idly kicking the armored swordsman next to him, and ended up hurting himself instead.

However, these were not the reasons that left Chen Nuo speechless; he was already used to Tie Zhuyu's unconventional personality.

What truly shocked him was Mrs. Tetsu Michiko, who, even dressed in sexy attire, exuded a dignified and majestic aura behind Tetsu Michiko.
