Ke Xue: Xiaolan delivers goods to your door at the beginning

……

When Lin Xiaofeng and his group arrived at the hotel, it was dark and raining heavily.

Heiji and Conan ran to the hotel in the rain. Lin Xiaofeng took off his coat and draped it over his and Toyama Kazuha's heads, then escorted Toyama Kazuha to the hotel.

Kazuha Toyama was deeply moved; Hattori Heiji had never done anything so gentle before.

"Thank you, Lin Jun."

"You're welcome, Miss Toyama."

"Can I call you Xiaofeng like Xiaolan, Yuanzi, and Aunt Jinghua do?"

"of course can."

“Xiao Feng, I’ll call you Xiao Feng, but you can also call me He Ye.”

"Yes, Kazuha."

Lin Xiaofeng gave a warm smile, and instantly, the gloomy weather brightened, illuminating the hearts of the distant mountains and leaves.

Yuanshan and Ye felt a sudden flutter in their hearts, thinking to themselves that a perfect guy like Lin Xiaofeng deserved many girlfriends. Lin Xiaofeng didn't just belong to one person; he belonged to everyone.

261. Lin Xiaofeng touched the heart of Yuanshan Heye.

"Awaited!"

A chubby middle-aged man walked down the stairs. He was dressed in a retro British detective outfit and was carrying a pipe. He looked somewhat like Inspector Megure. He was the organizer, Hiroyuki Kanaya.

Hiroyuki Kanaya said with a smile, "Welcome everyone to this trip. I am the planner of the trip and the owner of this inn, Hiroyuki Kanaya."

"This is the Sherlock Holmes event I've been looking forward to for so long!" Conan exclaimed excitedly. "Isn't it amazing, Heiji-nii-san?"

Hiroyuki Kanaya was surprised that there was such a young participant: "Little brother, have you read any of Conan Doyle's books?"

“Of course! I’ve read all of Conan Doyle’s novels! They’re simply…” Conan suddenly stopped, feeling that everyone in the “137” group was looking at him in surprise.

Hiroyuki Kanaya chuckled: "Conan Doyle's books are really popular... I'm surprised that a six-year-old boy would like Sherlock Holmes. At his age, my favorite things were self-propelled car models and glass marbles. He probably can't even read all the words in Conan Doyle's books."

Heiji Hattori retorted upon hearing Hiroyuki Kanaya's words: "Mr. Kanaya, he's not an ordinary little boy. His name is Conan. I believe Conan has read all of Conan Doyle's novels."

Hiroyuki Kanaya couldn't help but become interested: "I see, Conan is one of the contestants, right?"

Conan nodded and said "Mm".

Next, Mr. Hiroyuki Kanaya announced the rules, requiring participants to complete the 1,000 questions by tomorrow night. Only those who score 990 or higher can participate in the final, extremely difficult reasoning quiz. The ultimate winner will receive a rare first edition copy of "A Study in Scarlet"!

"That's a rare first edition of Sherlock Holmes's first published work, *A Study in Scarlet*!!!"

Conan's eyes were practically sparkling.

In fact, it wasn't just him; all the real Sherlock Holmes fans around him had excited smiles on their faces as they chattered excitedly about the rare edition book.

"Cough cough cough." Hiroyuki Kanaya had to use a cough to attract everyone's attention. "To be on the safe side, please hand over your cell phones and relevant reference books to our staff for safekeeping immediately."

Everyone placed their phones in the tray as instructed. As for Lin Xiaofeng, he didn't have his phone with him at all; it was in the system's storage space.

"What if you don't get 990 points?" someone asked.

Hiroyuki Kanaya sneered, "Of course, we should tell him to get out of my hotel! This kind of person has no right to call himself a fan of Sherlock Holmes!"

Amidst everyone's shocked expressions, Hattori Heiji confidently called out, "Mr. Kanaya, could you please send us the electronic version of the questions? I really like these questions; they can not only be used to test fans, but also provide a great way for others to learn about Sherlock Holmes."

Upon hearing that others could also learn about Sherlock Holmes, Hiroyuki Kanaya's eyes lit up: "Okay, I'll send it to you later. But a word of caution: do not cheat. The hotel has surveillance cameras and listening devices installed everywhere, monitoring everyone present. If anyone cheats, I'm sorry, you'll only get a zero."

"Now, here are your room keys. Please come and collect them."

Heiji Hattori got a key to a standard room, and Lin Xiaofeng got one too. They had two rooms with four beds, and the only problem was how to divide them.

"For the first question, when did Holmes and Watson first meet..." Conan's eyes were only on the thick stack of questions. "Then of course the answer is B, the laboratory."

Seeing that Hattori Heiji remained silent, he hesitated between Conan and Kazuha.

Kazuha Toyama made the choice for Heiji Hattori: "Heiji, you don't need to hesitate. I know you want to share a room with Conan. I'll just share with Kaze."

"Thank you, Kazuha!" Hattori Heiji said gratefully, then eagerly led Conan back to their room.

Lin Xiaofeng then naturally said to Toyama Kazuha, "Everyone's gone back to their rooms, let's go back too..."

"Yeah." Yuanshan Heye nodded shyly.

Inside the room, Toyama Kazuha was filled with anxiety and extreme shyness.

"Kazuha, I don't know if it's just my imagination, but you seem to be afraid of me."

"Of course I'm scared. Xiao Feng, you don't need to pretend. I know you'll take advantage of me just like you took advantage of Aunt Jinghua, right?"

Toyama Kazuha's heroic demeanor captivated Lin Xiaofeng. He hadn't planned to do anything to Toyama Kazuha yet, but now that Toyama Kazuha had pulled this stunt, he really wanted to play along.

"That's not true. Hattori-kun's mother and I are truly in love... I did not take advantage of Hattori-kun's mother. Hattori-kun's mother and I are truly in love."

Lin Xiaofeng felt it necessary to explain that although he had used methods to get Chibo Jinghua, it did not affect the fact that he and Chibo Jinghua were truly in love.

"I don't believe it... You're a big bad wolf. You have such lovely girlfriends like Ran and Sonoko. Yet you still went after your friend's mother. How despicable!"

Yuanshan and Ye mercilessly pointed out the true nature of Lin Xiaofeng beneath his glamorous exterior.

"Kazuha, listen to me, it's not what you think."

Lin 1.4 Xiao Feng gently embraced Yuan Shan He Ye's delicate body, looking directly into Yuan Shan He Ye's clear, bright eyes with a serious expression.

"Hattori-kun's mother—Shizuka, she was a lonely woman..."

Lin Xiaofeng told Toyama Kazuha all that Hattori Heiji's father was born with erectile dysfunction and that Hattori Heiji was adopted by the Hattori couple and was not their biological son.

"Isn't it a sad thing that such a beautiful woman like Jinghua can't experience the joy of being a woman? Kazuha, do you still think what I did was wrong?"

After hearing Lin Xiaofeng's explanation, Yuanshan Heye realized that she had misunderstood Lin Xiaofeng.

Lin Xiaofeng is such a gentle boy, so gentle, I'm so touched, I'm crying...

262. In front of Hattori Heiji, he took away Toyama Kazuha.

"I'm sorry, Xiaofeng, I misunderstood you."

Yuanshan and Ye respectfully apologized to Lin Xiaofeng. Lin Xiaofeng said it was alright; the misunderstanding between the two had been cleared up, and their relationship had progressed—a case of becoming friends after a fight.

Although the misunderstanding could be resolved, Yuanshanling and Ye (feeling regret) if Lin Xiaofeng were to abandon her, she would naturally cling to Lin Xiaofeng.

However, that wasn't the case. Lin Xiaofeng was a gentleman, a very polite gentleman! Not only did Lin Xiaofeng not take advantage of her, but he also worked with her on Sherlock Holmes problems.

However, after a while, not only did Yuanshan Heye fall asleep, but Lin Xiaofeng also fell asleep.

Neither of them was interested in Sherlock Holmes.

Lin Xiaofeng went to take a shower first, while Yuanshan Heye was still seriously solving the problem.

After taking a shower, I lay down on the bed by the window, my eyes slightly unfocused.

He remembered that in the animated film, the protagonist was going to die soon, and everyone had to stay behind to be questioned by the police.

He could take this opportunity to deduce the truth, solve the case, and then receive the system's reward.

Kazuha Toyama was still diligently solving the problem, and even exchanged ideas with Xiaofeng Lin: "Question 17, in which of the following cases does Sherlock Holmes come back to life? Hmm... it should be 'The Empty House'."

Lin Xiaofeng, somewhat surprised, asked, "He Ye, have you read Conan Doyle's books?"

“Yes.” Toyama Kazuha chuckled. “Because Heiji likes to read mystery novels, I’ve also read some. I’ve read quite a few Sherlock Holmes mystery novels.”

She poked her forehead with her pen again: "But is it really possible for anyone to get over 990 on this test? Even if you've read the book several times, you probably still won't remember many of the details, right?"

"Perhaps only those who idolize Sherlock Holmes can do that."

At least Lin Xiaofeng knew that Conan could get full marks.

"Aren't you going to continue with the questions?"

"No, I'm sleepy."

“But if we don’t do it, won’t the owner kick us out of the inn?” Toyama Kazuha feigned distress. “Mr. Kanaya doesn’t seem to be joking.”

"It's okay, even if you get kicked out, I'll take you to a luxury hotel, it'll be much more comfortable than here," Lin Xiaofeng said with a smile.

"Hmm... You've finally shown your true colors. You were indeed after me." Yuanshan and Ye Bingxue were both intelligent and understood the meaning behind Lin Xiaofeng's words.

"Yes. It's already quite an achievement that I can refrain from doing anything when I'm alone in a room with such a lovely lady like you, Kazuha. So how could I not have any thoughts?"

"Hmph! I knew it." Yuanshan Heye threw down her pen. If she and Lin Xiaofeng were kicked out together, that would be perfect.

After taking a shower, Toyama Kazuha changed into her pajamas and went to sleep in the bed next to Lin Xiaofeng's.

"Xiao Feng, you wouldn't ambush me while I'm asleep, would you?"

"Kazuha, it seems you don't trust me at all. If I were Heiji, would you feel the same way?"

"...Heiji is an idiot, there's no need to worry about him at all. Besides, my Aikido is no joke, it's definitely no worse than Hattori Heiji's." Wearing pajamas, Toyama Kazuha smiled at Lin Xiaofeng, "If it were you, Xiaofeng, my Aikido would probably be useless."

"Hehehe...So you think so highly of me, Kazuha. I definitely won't let you down." Lin Xiaofeng grinned mischievously.

Yuanshan Heye blushed again and shrank into the cup. If Lin Xiaofeng really did sneak up on her at night, she really didn't know what to do. The worst case scenario was that Lin Xiaofeng would get pregnant in the middle of her and she would have to make Lin Xiaofeng take responsibility for her for the rest of her life.

With this in mind, she could accept even the worst-case scenario and had nothing to worry about.

……

The night passed peacefully. Lin Xiaofeng wouldn't have gone so far as to ambush Toyama Kazuha; he could have pursued her openly and honestly, without resorting to underhanded tactics. Hattori Heiji is a fool; otherwise, this whole situation wouldn't have occurred.

Lin Xiaofeng and Toyama Kazuha went to the restaurant for breakfast and saw Hattori Heiji looking energetic, while Conan looked dizzy.

"Conan, why do you look so listless? You're the complete opposite of Hattori-kun," Lin Xiaofeng asked.

"I stayed up all night, I think I finished writing it around six in the morning," Conan said weakly as he drank his juice.

"Huh?" Heiji Hattori exclaimed in surprise, "Conan, didn't you finish over 800 questions by midnight?"

"I wrote it backwards. Because the previous questions were all very easy." Conan said with a half-moon-shaped eye. "Speaking of which, Brother Feng, why did Heiji invite you to the Holmes travel group? He didn't write a single word!"

"He probably just wants to see you." Lin Xiaofeng rubbed Conan's head.

At this moment, Hu Shiyan glanced over in this direction subtly.

"I hope lunch will be a little better. What's breakfast compared to that!" Ayako Oki, Kento's girlfriend and classmate from the same university, complained in an unfriendly tone. "Kento, aren't you going to write your homework yet?"

"Keep your voice down." Kento Toju quickly made a shushing gesture, then looked around to make sure no one else could hear Ayako Oki's voice.

Lin Xiaofeng stirred his coffee, but his peripheral vision and ears were constantly watching the activity in the entire lounge, especially the murderer, Toshi Kento.

Lin Xiaofeng remembered the Sherlock Holmes fan murder case very clearly. He could talk about everything from the murderer and the victim to the methods and motives, except for very minor details.

Therefore, he knew from the beginning that Hiroyuki Kanaya would die, and he also knew that Kento Toto wanted to kill him while everyone was huddled in their rooms doing their homework last night.

But he had no intention of saving anyone. He came to collect rewards, not to rescue people.

"breeze."

Yuanshan Heye called out to Lin Xiaofeng 137. The familiar voice was like a ray of light suddenly appearing in a cloudy sky.

"what happened?"

"Everyone seems to be working hard on the problems. If we keep slacking off, we might really get kicked out."

Kazuha Toyama was worried; this was no joke.

"It's alright. Instead of staying here silently answering questions, I'll take you for a walk."

"Eh? Is that okay?"

"of course."

Lin Xiaofeng reached out his hand to Yuanshan Heye, and Yuanshan Heye handed his soft hand to Lin Xiaofeng.

So, Lin Xiaofeng took Yuanshan Heye's hand and left the hotel.

Heiji Hattori and Conan naturally witnessed this scene.

"Heiji-nii, are we just going to leave them alone?"

"Never mind, I have other things to do now."

Hattori Heiji did not hesitate.

"Of course, it's answering questions."

"Ah. Heiji-nii, are you getting serious now?"

"Yeah. I'm going to get serious and copy yours, Conan."

"Have you no shame? You're copying a child's work."
