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

"Xiao Feng, would you like to come to my room and take a look?"

Normally, Xiaolan would have been embarrassed to take Lin Xiaofeng to her room. Now that Xiaolan has lost her memory and forgotten many things, her thoughts are purer, and she has fewer concerns.

"Okay."

Lin Xiaofeng naturally didn't stand on ceremony and readily agreed. Although he had promised Vermouth and Yukiko not to break up the Shinichi and Ran couple, Lin Xiaofeng never intended to keep his promise. Besides, even if Lin Xiaofeng did keep his promise, Kaito Kid would still go crazy and cheat on Shinichi Kudo later. It was better for Lin Xiaofeng to take Ran under his wing; with Lin Xiaofeng's protection, Kaito Kid wouldn't be able to bully Ran.

Go up to the third floor, to Xiaolan's room.

Xiaolan's room was very tidy and had a faint girlish fragrance. Although it was very ordinary and not fancy, it made people feel very warm.

"Xiao Feng, thank you for staying with me all this time. Otherwise, I really wouldn't know what to do." Xiao Lan knew she had amnesia, and the amnesia filled her with fear. However, with Lin Xiao Feng by her side, her fear disappeared, and she felt calm and peaceful.

"You're welcome, Xiaolan. You're my good friend, this is what I should do. I'll stay with you until you regain your memory."

"Xiao Feng, you'll stay with me all this time? Then I don't want to regain my memories."

“That won’t do. Uncle Mori and Aunt Eri are your parents, and they’ve always cared about you. If you never remember your parents, they will be sad and upset.”

"Yes." Xiaolan nodded understandingly. "I will try my best to remember everything!"

Then, Xiaolan invited Lin Xiaofeng to sit on her bed. Lin Xiaofeng didn't know what she meant, but he did as she asked.

"Xiaolan?"

"Xiao Feng, you've helped me so much, I want to thank you and make you feel better."

"Become more comfortable? What do you mean?"

Lin Xiaofeng couldn't help but feel nervous. Xiaolan's parents were downstairs, and he dared not do anything reckless.

“I remember once, when we were living together, you asked me to help you… I was shy, but I still helped you, and you were very happy at the time.”

"Oh, oh, oh... so you still remember that? That's incredible."

Lin Xiaofeng naturally knew what Xiaolan was talking about. It was about Sonoko's older sister, Ayako. At the class reunion at the villa in the mountains, he made a very outrageous request, and Xiaolan agreed to it.

Now, Xiaolan is going to use the same trick again. Lin Xiaofeng knows this isn't right, but he can't refuse.

Xiao Lan was wearing a green blouse with denim shorts and white socks on her bare feet, looking incredibly innocent.

Moreover, it's daytime now, so I can see Xiaolan, which takes the experience to another level.

"do you need?"

"Okay. Please, Xiaolan."

Lin Xiaofeng sat down, and Xiao Lan obediently crawled to his front, then... jumped out. For a moment, Xiao Lan trembled in fright. Lin Xiaofeng was very powerful; it was normal for Xiao Lan to be startled. It was nighttime before, and Xiao Lan hadn't seen clearly; she only saw it now.

"It feels a little scary."

"If it's too much of a stretch, then forget it."

"Don't force them, they will try their best!"

"..."

Lin Xiaofeng felt he was being a bit wicked, taking advantage of Xiaolan's amnesia to teach her to do this kind of thing.

Xiao Lan opened her small mouth carefully and swallowed it whole.

Lin Xiaofeng was deeply moved by Xiaolan's hard work. He felt refreshed and at ease.

……

Lin Xiaofeng enjoyed Ran's sweet words and felt completely at ease. Kogoro Mouri and Conan, however, were restless and discussing whether they should escape.

"Uncle Mori, let's run away."

"If we just run away like this... Eri will definitely be furious."

"Uncle Mori, my life is more important!"

"Conan, you're right. Our lives are more important. Let's run away."

　While Eri was cooking in the kitchen, Kogoro Mouri and Conan made their escape.

Kogoro Mouri and Conan left the Mouri Detective Agency feeling as if they had escaped death.

Conan laughed loudly, "Hahaha... In a moment, Brother Xiaofeng will definitely cry his eyes out. Brother Xiaofeng, you really brought this on yourself!"

Mouri Kogoro chuckled coldly, "He who doesn't listen to the old man's advice will suffer the consequences. I've tried to persuade him, but he won't listen. This is his good fortune."

It is indeed a blessing. Lin Xiaofeng is so comfortable now that Kogoro Mouri and Conan can't even imagine it.

Now, only Lin Xiaofeng and Xiaolan in Xiaolan's room on the third floor, and Eri in the kitchen on the second floor, remain at the Mouri Detective Agency.

Eri was busy cooking and didn't have time to pay attention to Lin Xiaofeng and Xiaolan.

Meanwhile, Kogoro Mouri and Conan left the Mouri Detective Agency directly.

Therefore, no one disturbed Lin Xiaofeng and Xiaolan.

During this time, Lin Xiaofeng was a little scared that someone would discover him and Xiaolan, but in fact, there was no need for such fear.

88. Xiaolan doesn't want to eat dinner.

Lin Xiaofeng's feelings at this moment were indescribable.

Even if Ran doesn't eat dinner, it's fine. So there's no need to worry about Eri's cooking being bad.

"Thank you for your hard work, Xiaolan."

"It's not hard."

At the same time, Eri Kisaki came up and called the two of them to go to the restaurant for dinner.

Lin Xiaoqi quickly wiped Xiaolan's mouth clean with a tissue, in case Fei Yingli noticed anything was wrong.

"What are you two doing upstairs? Come down and eat."

Eri pushed up her glasses, looking at Ran and Lin Xiaofeng with a puzzled expression.

"It's nothing, we were just chatting," Lin Xiaofeng quickly explained.

"Mom, Xiaofeng and I are coming down now."

Xiaolan had forgotten how terrible her mother's cooking was. Holding Lin Xiaofeng's hand, she followed Fei Yingli downstairs to the dining room.

A sumptuous dinner of three dishes and a soup was laid out on the table. The dishes looked and smelled perfectly normal.

"You two, have you seen Kogoro and Conan?"

After taking their seats, Eri asked the two of them questions.

Xiao Lan shook her head: "Xiao Feng and I have been upstairs the whole time. We don't know where they went."

Lin Xiaofeng knew where the two had gone without needing to be told.

"They must have escaped."

"If what I make is that terrible, I'll have no problem eating it myself."

Eri Kisaki picked up a piece of curry chicken with her chopsticks, which seemed perfectly normal.

Lin Xiaofeng also picked up his chopsticks, took a piece of curry chicken, and put it in his mouth to chew.

Then, Lin Xiaofeng's taste buds were shattered; this was food straight from hell.

"What an amazing flavor! Aunt Eri, how do you make this kind of dish?!"

"I followed the recipe exactly, is there a problem?"

"This is a huge problem."

Lin Xiaofeng suddenly felt that this world was fake and unreal. No, how could there be such a strange and awful dish? It's not just bad; it's not even human food.

Xiaolan also tried a piece of curry chicken, and her expression immediately turned strange.

"This taste is so strange, even stranger than Xiaofeng's warm nutrient solution!"

After eating one piece of curry chicken, Xiao Lan couldn't eat a second one. In comparison, Lin Xiaofeng's nutrient solution was simply divine.

"Huh? I think it's perfectly normal."

Eri Kisaki tried a few more pieces of the curry chicken she made herself, and still couldn't find anything wrong with it.

"Aunt Yingli's sense of taste is different from ours."

"Lin Xiaofeng, you don't need to beat around the bush and say my cooking is bad."

"No, this is beyond just being bad. This is not a normal taste. I'm surprised that curry chicken can taste like this."

"Isn't it just because you think my cooking is bad?"

“Aunt Yingli, let me put it this way. For example, when you see something, it is through your visual perception that the image is formed by the sensory organs of your eyes. And everyone’s visual perception is different, as is the sensory organs of the eyes. In other words, everyone sees the world differently. The same goes for taste. Even if everyone tastes the same food, the taste they experience will be different.”

"You mean, my sense of taste deceived me, making something that clearly tastes good?" Eri felt a question that had been bothering her resolved. Why was it that only she could eat the things she made?

"It should be said that this 'curry chicken' doesn't have a truly authentic flavor. Every person who tastes it will experience a different flavor. Therefore, curry chicken doesn't have its own unique flavor; rather, the flavor is formed by different people tasting it."

Through Lin Xiaofeng's explanation, Eri finally understood why everyone was afraid of her cooking. It wasn't that her cooking was bad, but rather that she was different from everyone else; she was special.

Eri Kisaki sighed and accepted the fact that only she could eat the dishes she had made.

"I knew I shouldn't have cooked dinner. Looks like I'll have to eat all this food by myself."

Eri looked at Ran and asked with concern, "Ran, why don't you and Kaze go eat out?"

Xiaolan shook her head: "I'm not hungry."

Xiao Lan looked at Lin Xiaofeng and asked, "Xiaofeng, do you want me to go out for dinner with you?"

Lin Xiaofeng shook his head: "I'm not hungry either."

Lin Xiaofeng continued, "Besides, Aunt Yingli eats so much food by herself, I can help with that."

Eri glanced at Lin Xiaofeng and said, "Lin Xiaofeng, you don't need to force yourself to please me."

"Aunt Yingli, I didn't force you."

Lin Xiaofeng wasn't forcing himself; rather, he was driven by curiosity to try the dish made by Eri Kisaki. It was indeed a strange flavor that only Eri Kisaki could create. The taste was indescribable, like something out of Cthulhu, ineffable and strangely addictive.

As Lin Xiaofeng ate, (Nuo Nuo Zhao) actually ate quite a bit.

Lin Xiaofeng and Fei Yingli finished off the entire table of food together.

Xiaolan watched from the side, her round, beautiful eyes wide with disbelief, unable to comprehend how the two of them could finish such horrible food.

Lin Xiaofeng was the only person who could understand Eri's cooking, which moved Eri so much that she didn't dislike him as much anymore.

Fei Yingli wondered if she had wronged Lin Xiaofeng. It was Yukiko's own indiscretion that led her to seduce her son's classmate, Lin Xiaofeng. Lin Xiaofeng, young and impetuous, couldn't resist the temptation and made a mistake. She couldn't blame Lin Xiaofeng at all.

As for the truth, Fei Yingli wanted to take this opportunity to properly question Lin Xiaofeng and find out what really happened.

89. To have women on both sides, a man's dream

At night, Ran slept with Eri Kisaki.

Lin Xiaofeng didn't sleep with Kogoro Mouri and Conan; he slept directly on the sofa in the office.

The next morning, Conan jokingly dragged his three other friends, the Detective Boys, along, saying that he would replace Lin Xiaofeng as Ran's bodyguard.

Lin Xiaofeng naturally wouldn't let the Junior Detective League succeed in this matter; these little brats were just there to make a fool of themselves.

"Ding dong."

Just then, the doorbell rang at the office. Conan ran over and saw, "Ah, it's a package. The recipient... is Lin Xiaofeng."

Conan was surprised. Why would the package meant for Lin Xiaofeng be sent to the Mouri Detective Agency? That was really strange.

Conan ran up to Lin Xiaofeng with a cardboard box in his arms, asking for Lin Xiaofeng's opinion.

"Brother Xiaofeng, this is for you. Do you want to open it?"

"That's strange. Why would they send it to me? Who could it be? I just arrived at the Mouri Detective Agency yesterday. How could anyone know I'm there?"

The sender was anonymous, leaving no information about them. Lin Xiaofeng narrowed his eyes; his intuition told him that there was probably something wrong with this package.

"Open it."

Lin Xiaofeng put on his X-ray glasses, made sure there were no dangerous items in the box, and then opened it.

Inside the box was a newspaper and some photos?

Lin Xiaofeng frowned, took out the photos, and flipped through a few at random.

...This photo shows the crime scene. The victim is a woman with wide-open eyes, covered in red, and there is blood everywhere in the photo.
