Not long after, Nanatsuki Koshimizu returned with a cup of hot water.
Lin Xiaofeng tore open the small package and poured all the flour inside in one go.
"What is this?" Koshimizu Nanatsuki asked Lin Xiaofeng in confusion.
"Don't ask too many questions, anyway, it's not some kind of harmful drug," Lin Xiaofeng replied, waving his hand.
Then he carried the cup of water with added seasoning to Tokitsu Junya.
Something happened that surprised Koshimizu Nanatsuki.
Although Tokitsu Junya looked terrified, he didn't even try to dodge.
Lin Xiaofeng obediently pried open his mouth and then poured water into it.
He looked like he wanted to vomit, but instead, he gulped down every last drop of water.
What is this operation?
What exactly happened during the brief minute I was away?
Koshimizu Nanatsuki's mind was filled with questions.
Chapter 232 Some childhood sweethearts are experiencing tenderness, while others are arguing.
The wireless communication devices in the warehouse have not been damaged.
On this deserted island currently outside the circle, this is the only way to contact the outside world.
"So, that's it? I haven't even started anything yet." Hattori Heiji followed behind Lin Xiaofeng with a look of utter disbelief.
The expressions on the faces of the others were equally striking.
Only Zhen Chun remained completely calm.
After all, Dad knows magic, so what's so special about seeing through a mere conspiracy in a few hours?
"I'm really sorry to have dragged you all into this personal grudge of mine." Koshimizu Nanatsuki stuck out her tongue and looked apologetically at Hattori Heiji, Conan, and Sera Masumi.
Yes, only these three people and Lin Xiaofeng in front are innocent.
Renzo Kotani?
As the young lady who committed suicide back then, knowing the truth, she sat idly by and watched Tokitsu Junya's free interpretation without saying a word. Her friend committed suicide, so this person is also at fault.
Hammero Hiroki?
If this guy hadn't dismantled that window after she left, causing Tokitsu Junya to hastily finish the case and frame her friend, her friend wouldn't have committed suicide because she couldn't withstand the interrogation by the Japanese police.
Time flows gently, this is the source of everything!
"Hey, I mean, your original plan wasn't to take care of Tokitsu Junya and then destroy this wireless communication device, was it?" Conan looked up at Koshimizu Nanatsuki and asked, watching Lin Xiaofeng communicating with the outside world through the wireless communication device.
"Huh? You idiot, isn't she cutting off her escape route by doing this... No way, you're really planning to do this?" Hattori Heiji, who was originally going to refute Conan's statement, was stunned to find that Koshimizu Nanatsuki not only didn't refute it, but even showed a guilty expression, and was instantly dumbfounded.
"Let me ask you another question, Nanatsuki-neechan. You wouldn't... not even have a single boat left, and you didn't make any prior arrangements for when another boat would come, would you?" Masumi, who already knew that Nanatsuki was two or three years older than her, asked Nanatsuki cautiously.
"Yes, that's how it is. No matter what happens afterward, everyone will be trapped on this island to die, so that's why I apologize to you." Koshimizu Nanatsuki put her hands together, looked at everyone with a humble expression, and smiled bitterly.
Hattori Heiji was sweating profusely.
"Hey, Kudo, I suddenly realize you were right back then." Hattori Heiji bent down and whispered in Conan's ear, "It's best not to push criminals into a corner."
Who knows if the prisoner's family will pull something like what Nanatsuki Koshimizu did?
As for whether the criminal is innocent?
Heiji Hattori didn't think he would be that stupid.
On the other side, Tokitsu Junya and Tsuchio Hiroki sat slumped on the ground, their faces filled with despair, without uttering a word.
Renzo Koya, on the other hand, kept wiping his glasses with a guilty look on his face.
He was the only person present who felt guilty for not saying a word during the incident years ago.
But it was all too late.
Although Lin Xiaofeng felt that a butler who could keep his master's secrets would be trusted by more wealthy businessmen with dirty hands.
"Alright, just wait a little longer, and the police will send a speedboat to pick us up." Lin Xiaofeng put down the communicator and looked at the others with a relaxed expression.
"By the way, what's up with Tokitsu Junya? I feel like there's something off about his expression." Hattori Heiji glanced at Tokitsu Junya, who looked like his entire family had died, and asked.
"It's nothing, I just gave him some medicine, something like truth serum," Lin Xiaofeng explained with a smile.
"Huh? How could you drug him!" Hattori Heiji looked at Lin Xiaofeng in astonishment, then his face turned angry. "Didn't you know that if the drug test found out, all his testimony would be invalid?!"
"Don't worry, it's the kind of drug that can't be detected by a drug test," Lin Xiaofeng replied with a smile. "Otherwise, I wouldn't have said that in front of them."
You're using today's technology to examine magical potions?
The person leading the team was a policeman I didn't recognize.
Oh, that makes sense. After all, this uninhabited island isn't located in the Tokyo area, so it's normal that it's not Inspector Megure, whom everyone knows, leading the team.
After arriving at the police station and explaining everything, Lin Xiaofeng and his group left the station feeling relieved.
Only Tokitsu Junya, Tsuchio Hiroki, and Koya Renzo remained.
After all, the case from back then still requires the further cooperation of these three people.
Moreover, the former two probably won't have another chance to come out.
As for the Koshimizu Nanatsuki?
She simply invited a few guests to play a detective game on the deserted island. She had already paid the hired staff, and there were no disputes. What could possibly go wrong?
"Hmm—I suddenly feel so relaxed." Koshimizu Nanatsuki sighed, standing in the sun with a relaxed expression.
"Then why do I feel so tired?" Hattori Heiji glared at Koshimizu Nanatsuki with a dark expression.
"Hmph, how would I know about you?" Koshimizu Nanatsuki glanced at Hattori Heiji and snorted.
585. Attorney Fei was retaliated against.
The living room was filled with the aroma of food. A blonde British girl came out of the kitchen carrying lunch, and gave a soft hum when she saw Lin Xiaofeng returning from the entrance.
"Go wash your hands, it's time to eat."
"Oh."
Lin Xiaofeng readily agreed to any suggestion.
After washing their hands, the dishes were served, and the two sat down together at the table.
Mary Akai had just picked up her chopsticks when a fleeting glance made her eyes unconsciously fall on the base of Lin Xiaofeng's neck.
There, nestled in the shadows, a strawberry planted at just the right spot.
The girl put down the chopsticks she had picked up.
She put down her chopsticks and got off the chair to stand in front of Lin Xiaofeng. Because she wasn't tall enough, Akai Mary simply grabbed the boy's arm and climbed up the chair by stepping on the edge of the chair. She then gently pulled open his collar.
The placement of this strawberry is just right; it's not too conspicuous, ensuring you'll turn heads on the street, yet it's also not so hidden that people won't notice it at all.
She doesn't ostentatiously declare her ownership to everyone, yet she doesn't mind leaving traces to tell those who discover her what she has done.
Mary Akai tilted her head slightly: "Looks like my call was really timely."
"Found?"
Lin Xiaofeng put his arms around the girl's waist to prevent her from slipping down.
“Otherwise, she wouldn’t have needed to leave a mark to provoke me, would she?” Mary Akai shook her head. “But she forgot one thing: while she could leave a mark, I could do much more, for example—”
As soon as she finished speaking, the British girl closed her eyes and slightly parted her lips, her light golden eyelashes trembling slightly under the light above her head.
Lin Xiaofeng quickly understood her meaning, scooped a spoonful of food into the girl's mouth, and she smacked it clean.
It's hard to say whether this is an effect of APTX4869 shrinking her body. At least if it were Mary Akai in her previous adult form, she would never have done this, opening her mouth to wait to be fed.
How should I put it? Surprisingly, it's quite cute.
Because of this, the lunch shifted from spoon-to-mouth to mouth-to-mouth from the middle of the meal, and the venue changed from the dining table to the kitchen, then to the balcony and the bathroom, and finally into the bedroom.
It's a perfect combination of eating, exercising after meals, and taking a nap.
Due to excessive physical exertion, Mary Akai, who usually keeps her afternoon nap to within half an hour, slept from 2 p.m. to 3 p.m. without waking up.
Lin Xiaofeng got up at three o'clock, intending to go to the toilet and then go back to lie down. He hadn't gotten much rest at the Twilight Villa last night and needed to catch up on his sleep.
But before he could return to his room, a sudden private message on his phone dispelled Lin Xiaofeng's drowsiness.
The message came from Eri Kisaki. The two had previously lost their phones in the ocean and bought new ones. Eri added Lin Xiaofeng's account as a friend on social media, but they hadn't been in contact much since.
Unexpectedly, a message came through at this time, containing only two simple words.
Help me!
Rewind to an hour earlier, when Lin Xiaofeng had just finished fighting with Akai Mary in the Eri Kisaki Law Firm located in a downtown commercial building.
The office door was pushed open from the outside, and Secretary Midori Kuriyama walked in, carrying a thick stack of documents.
"Ms. Fei, this is the case of the client you are meeting next week. I have printed it all out and put it here with you."
As she spoke, she went to her desk and placed the documents in her hand together with the other stacks of documents waiting to be read.
At that moment, Eri Kisaki was looking down at the documents in her hand behind her desk. When she saw her assistant bring in new ones, she just glanced at them and nodded.
"Okay, just leave it there. I don't have anything else to do today. Kuriyama, if you don't have anything else to do, you can leave work early."
"Okay, then I'll start today..."
Kuriyama Midori was about to say goodbye for the day, but before she could say it, a clear doorbell rang from outside the office.
ding dong~
"what?"
Not only Kuriyama Midori, but even Eri Kisaki herself was momentarily stunned when she heard the doorbell ring.
The two exchanged a glance, and Eri blinked.
"I don't recall having any appointments with clients today, right?"
"No... no."
Kuriyama Midori was also somewhat confused, and even began to wonder if she had remembered it wrong.
But after thinking it over, I realized that I hadn't misremembered.
There are indeed no plans to meet with the client today.
"Could you please go out and check for me, Kuriyama?"
Eri nodded to her secretary.
Kuriyama Midori immediately understood, nodded briefly, and turned to leave the office.
Eri Kisaki didn't think much of it and, after handing the matter over to her secretary, continued looking at the documents.
However, after two or three minutes, Eri had finished reading a page of information, but there was still no response from outside, which made her feel a little strange.
"Kuriyama?"
Eri called out from behind the office door.
Still no response.
Realizing something was amiss, Eri Kisaki quickly got up from behind her desk and walked toward the door while calling out to someone.
But all the calls seemed to be blocked and absorbed by the heavy wooden door of the office, and Kuriyama Midori, who went out to check the situation, was as if she had stepped into another dimension and could not be contacted at all.
There was no other way but to see for myself.
Eri carefully approached the office door, gently placed her right hand on the doorknob, pressed down, and pushed it open.
squeak--
· ······Requesting flowers· ····
In the quiet, spiritual atmosphere, the sound of the door hinges turning seemed particularly clear. When the office door was fully opened, all that could be seen was that Kuriyama Midori, who had come out to check the situation earlier, was lying unconscious on the ground in the lobby of the office's main entrance.
"Kuriyama? Kuriyama! Kuriyama, cheer up..."
Eri Kisaki instinctively rushed over to check the situation, but she had only taken one step when she suddenly realized something was wrong.
Previously, she couldn't see him because she was standing inside the office and at that angle, but as she walked out of the office, an unfamiliar figure came into view from the corner of her right side.
