"My office is on the second floor. Although it's not very big, it has a reception room, a living room, a lounge, and a restroom. There's a restaurant downstairs. After you eat there, you can leave the restaurant bill with me for reimbursement."

"It's very well-equipped... You're not planning to stay here, are you?"

“I’m usually very busy, so of course I wouldn’t stay here.”

"Then why did you arrange all this so meticulously?"

"I'm doing this for your own good!"

"Amuro Tooru, you have ulterior motives!"

Lin Xiaoliu could see right through Amuro Tooru's thoughts. He knew Amuro Tooru was thinking that if he lived in a place where he had nothing to do, he would have to work for Amuro Tooru day and night.

Goodness, this is even worse than the 996 work schedule.

How did I have ulterior motives?

"I'm not going to live at the firm!"

"I didn't ask you to live in the office."

"alright."

Lin Xiaofeng sat down directly on the sofa in the firm.

"I'm hungry, Amuro Tooru, go get me some KFC."

"Oh. It's no big deal."

Amuro Tooru turned around, as if he were going downstairs to buy KFC for Lin Xiaofeng.

I had just reached the door when I sensed something was wrong.

"Lin Xiaofeng, why should I buy you KFC? I'm your boss."

"I know, there's no need to keep emphasizing it. I didn't ask you to come downstairs to buy me KFC. Can't you order food on your phone?"

Lin Xiaofeng looked at Amuro Tooru with the same gaze one would give an idiot.

"hateful!"

An felt completely controlled by Lin Xiaofeng, which made her very unhappy. However, there was no other way; if she wanted the plan to proceed smoothly, she couldn't do without Lin Xiaofeng.

20. Conan's crush on Ran is exposed to his face.

Lin Xiaofeng ate KFC at the firm and then went to school; he had classes today.

Sure enough, with his identity as a high school detective, Lin Xiaofeng could skip classes at will. School became a place he could go to whenever he wanted, and not go whenever he didn't want to, free to come and go as he pleased.

Lin Xiaofeng enjoyed all the privileges of a high school detective, just like Shinichi Kudo.

At noon, Lin Xiaofeng also enjoyed a deluxe bento box prepared for him by the garden.

The bento box was made by the Suzuki family's professional chef, and it was very plentiful and delicious.

With such good food, Lin Xiaofeng could skip lunch and not need to eat anything else after lunch.

When school was over, Xiaolan mentioned the newspaper article she had seen that day: "[The knight armor at the Medieval Museum was seen walking at night, witnessed by two security guards]".

"I think this is very interesting, do you want to go check it out together?"

Xiaolan extended an invitation to her two friends.

"Yes, Miss Mori."

"I'm fine too, Xiaolan!"

Ran Mouri then said to Lin Xiaofeng, "Um... Lin-kun, could you just call me Ran, like Sonoko does? We're good friends now!"

Lin Xiaofeng said to Xiaolan, "I couldn't ask for that, Xiaolan!"

Seeing this, Yuanzi, not to be outdone, tugged at Lin Xiaofeng's arm and said, "Lin-kun, me too, call me Yuanzi."

Lin Xiaofeng smiled slightly at Yuanzi: "Yes, Yuanzi."

Then, Lin Xiaofeng said to the two women, "You can also just call me Xiaofeng."

"Okay!" Sonoko and Ran happily agreed.

So, after school, Lin Xiaofeng and Yuanzi accompanied Xiaolan to the Medieval Art Museum.

Lin Xiaofeng walked ahead, with Yuanzi on his left and Xiaolan on his right, giving him the illusion of being a winner in life.

The three arrived at the museum and unexpectedly bumped into Kogoro Mouri and Conan Edogawa.

Ran looked speechless: "What... Dad and Conan are here too!"

Kogoro Mouri complained, "It's all because Conan insisted on dragging me along."

"Sister Xiaolan, you're here too!"

Conan regretted it as soon as he saw Ran, thinking to himself that he should have asked Ran to bring him.

However, Ran had no interest in bringing Conan to the art museum. It was much better to go to the art museum with her own friends than with a child.

Soon, Conan noticed Lin Xiaofeng next to Ran, especially since Lin Xiaofeng was deliberately getting very close to Ran, and the ambiguous atmosphere immediately dissipated.

Conan could almost see Lin Xiaofeng and his Ran standing together, radiating a pink aura.

Conan's mood instantly plummeted.

That despicable Erlin's bad playing style! He even said he wasn't interested in Xiaolan, but it's obvious he's just lusting after her!

"Conan, what's wrong? Your expression looks scary."

Ran had just seen Conan smiling, but now she felt like she'd run into her nemesis.

Ran followed Conan's gaze and then saw Lin Xiaofeng, who looked completely calm and collected.

"Conan, is there something you're unhappy about with Xiaofeng?"

Conan was startled awake by Ran's voice and reminded himself not to act too strangely, so he instantly acted cute and transformed into a good boy.

"Brother Xiaofeng! What brings you here? Are you interested in art museums?"

"Oh, I came here specifically to accompany Xiaolan."

"Xiao Lan? Brother Xiao Feng, you can just call Sister Xiao Lan Xiao Lan."

"Xiaolan is my good friend, is there a problem?"

"Just friends?"

Conan asked hesitantly, fearing that Lin Xiaofeng and his Ran might go beyond friendship.

Ran blushed deeply when Conan asked such a blunt question.

Ran, who is naturally shy, quickly explained to Conan.

"We're just good friends. Shinichi calls me Ran directly, what's so strange about that?"

Sonoko giggled.

"Ran, this little rascal is clearly jealous," Sonoko explained.

"Jealous?" Xiaolan looked completely bewildered.

"Yeah. Conan got jealous seeing how well you and Xiaofeng get along."

"He's just a first-grader, how could he be jealous?"

Xiao Lan frowned, expressing her doubts.

The naive Ran cannot comprehend Conan's wicked intentions of wanting to keep her as his possession.

"Who knows?"

Sonoko giggled; teasing Ran was one of her greatest pleasures.

Lin Xiaofeng added fuel to the fire, saying, "I've also noticed that Conan seems to have a crush on you, Ran."

Even Lin Xiaofeng said so, so Ran couldn't help but get serious: "Are you kidding? Conan? Is he secretly in love with me?"

Hearing the three talking, Conan was so nervous he didn't know what to do.

Damn it... Yuanzi is already annoying enough, and now with Lin Xiaofeng on top of that, I'm going crazy!

Ran glanced at Conan, only to see him blushing and looking down, truly appearing to have a crush on her.

Xiaolan felt it was very strange; being secretly admired by an elementary school student was too odd.

"Conan, do you have a crush on me?"

Ran lowered her head and asked Conan directly.

"No... I just think of Xiaolan as my good older sister... Hehe..."

"Just saying."

Xiao Lan crossed her arms, pouting slightly at Lin Xiaofeng and Yuanzi with a hint of displeasure.

"It's one thing for Yuanzi to joke about me, but why are you making such absurd jokes, Xiaofeng?"

Lin Yi Xiaofeng defended O, saying, "Xiao Lan, you! Just ask Conan directly~, Conan will definitely (shyly) admit it to his face, but (look at his) nervous state, it's probably true."

Sonoko chimed in, "That's right... Xiaofeng and I are just concerned about you, we didn't mean to make fun of you."

Ran squinted at Conan.

Conan panicked so much that he didn't dare to look Ran in the eye.

"My God, can it really be true?"

Ran sighed, realizing that if it were true, she wouldn't know how to face Conan.

Lin + Xiao%⑵Feng e then <rO again zero question {Xiao/Lan: Ba Ba “Wu Wu Xiao Ling Lan Lin, ⑨If ‘⒊Ke Liu Nan Jiu Xiang Jiu You Q confess usn, a would you agree n jiu?” 宭

Without even thinking, Xiaolan replied, "Of course I won't agree. I have no interest in pedophilia!"

Conan was once again severely shocked by Ran's words.

He had considered that if he couldn't transform back into Shinichi Kudo, he hoped Ran would wait for him to grow up so they could continue being together.

Now, that wish has been shattered.

Seeing Conan's dejected expression, Sonoko added insult to injury: "Conan, give up... Ran wouldn't like a kid like you. If you want to date, find someone your own age."

21. Greatsword

Just as Conan was being stabbed repeatedly, Kogoro Mouri was talking to a hunched, white-bearded old man.

The hunched, white-bearded old man was full of energy and kept talking to Kogoro Mouri.

"Haha, after all, all the works here are my children!"

"Excuse me, who are you?"

"Ah, I'm sorry, my apologies. My surname is Ochiai, and I'm the curator here."

"Ahaha, so it's the curator."

"Well then, I won't disturb your enjoyment any longer."

Director Ochiai waved goodbye to Kogoro Mouri with a smile, but the next second after turning his head, he suddenly glared and yelled at the middle-aged man on the other side, "Keita, didn't I tell you that you have to wear gloves when touching these works!?"

"what!"

Keida was startled by Director Ochiai's shout, and then apologized, "I'm sorry, I forgot..."

Although Keita was apologizing verbally, he didn't seem to care at all on his face.

"That's enough, stop doing that. I'm leaving this to you, Iijima."

Director Ochiai spoke to the square-faced young man on the other side.

"Yes."

"Ha, there are still not many people as always."

Just then, a square-faced middle-aged man in a suit appeared, sneering, "Well, they're all about to go bankrupt anyway. In these last few days, you can take good care of these precious pieces of junk. Mr. Designer, bring me the design drawings."

"Yes."

The man in the suit following behind the middle-aged man immediately responded.

Hearing their conversation, Xiaolan curiously stepped forward and asked:

"Huh? Last few days? What does that mean? Is this art museum closing down?"
