Detective Conan: A Dream Come True, Ran is Startled

He's a real celebrity!

She never expected that she would have the chance to speak with the other party.

Lin Jin cut to the chase, asking, "Miaozi, do you have a boyfriend?"

"No, no." Miao shook her head.

"You live alone?" Lin Jin asked again.

"Mm." Miao Zi nodded.

"Since you live alone, why don't you consider moving in with me?" Lin Jin extended the invitation directly, without any hesitation.

His behavior did not arouse any suspicion from Sato and Miyamoto.

They simply thought he was just trying to inflate his numbers by recruiting more people.

"Huh? Me...me?" Miike Naeko was stunned.

She had just overheard what Sato Miwako said to Miyamoto Yumi.

I never expected such a windfall to fall into my lap, and for a moment I was incredulous.

"Hmm." Lin Jin said casually while drinking his wine, "Although I don't know you well, I trust Yumi's judgment."

"If she invites you out to eat, it means you're not a bad kid."

These words made Miyamoto Yumi feel very proud, and she happily said, "Lin, you have good taste!"

"Although Miaozi is a bit introverted and likes anime, she's a good girl!"

Lin Jin smiled and said, "Looks like I guessed right... How about it? Want to move in together?"

"This...this...well." Miike Naeko stammered, trying to figure out how to politely refuse.

After all, my social skills are practically nonexistent.

It's more comfortable to live alone.

However, before she could even refuse, Yumi Miyamoto urged, "Nayako, why don't you move in with us? It'll save you a lot on rent!"

"We can also save on water, electricity, and internet fees."

"After I get my salary, aside from living expenses, it's all pocket money!!"

Upon hearing this, Miike Naoko was instantly intrigued.

These expenses take up half of her salary. If she could save that money... wouldn't she be able to buy even more merchandise?

Thinking about this, the words of refusal stuck in my throat!

After hesitating for a while, she said somewhat nervously, "Um... am I really okay with this?"

"As long as you don't do anything bad, it's fine." Lin Jin smiled.

"Well... then... I'll take my leave." Miike Naeko finally nodded.

"I should be thanking you, otherwise I would also be having a headache not knowing where to find a trustworthy girl," Lin Jin said, his heart beaming with joy.

Once you move in, there will be plenty of opportunities to get to know each other.

You think you can escape my grasp?

There's no such thing as a free lunch!

....................................

The next day, noon.

During their break, Sato and his two companions went to the villa in the port area, following the address given to them by Lin Jin.

The three of them chatted and laughed along the way.

But when they saw the villa, which was over 700 square meters, all three of them were speechless with shock.

Lin Jin led them into the villa's living room.

The three women didn't even dare to speak loudly. They looked at each other, their faces full of tension!

Soon, Akemi came out.

She didn't dress up much; she was dressed like the girl next door.

But with the villa as a backdrop, that outfit, which cost only tens of thousands of yen, truly shone brightly and exuded extravagance in the eyes of the other three girls!

After Lin Jin briefly introduced them to each other, Mingmei smiled and said, "Okay, I understand... I'll have a good chat with these three policewomen. Lin Jun, you can go ahead and do your work."

"Okay." Lin Jin said, giving Sato Miwako and the others a reassuring look before leaving.

He doesn't need to handle the rest; Mingmei will take care of it.

After leaving the villa, Lin Jin drove to the Mouri Detective Agency.

When he arrived downstairs, he called Xiaolan and said, "I've arrived. Have you all unpacked?"

"Mmm, mmm~~ It's all packed! We'll come down now!" Xiaolan said excitedly on the other end of the phone.

A short while later, Kogoro Mouri, Ran, and Sonoko emerged from the judo area carrying their schoolbags and nimbly got into the car.

After the car door closed, Lin Jin drove off.

Kogoro Mouri, sitting in the passenger seat, asked impatiently, "Hey, Hayashi! What kind of surprise are you talking about?"

"Yeah, yeah! The three of us had a really intense discussion in the office just now!" Sonoko said enthusiastically.

"We all guessed that they were going to take us to meet a very famous person!" Xiaolan said happily.

Lin Jin laughed and said, "If I tell you now, there won't be any surprises... I guarantee you'll all be so excited you'll scream!"

Seeing this, the three of them became even more expectant.

More than an hour later, the vehicle left Tokyo and arrived at a small town in the suburbs.

This left Xiaolan and the other two completely bewildered.

Kogoro Mouri said impatiently, "What are you doing in this godforsaken place?"

"Dad, just be a little more patient, a few more minutes won't make a difference," Xiaolan advised.

"I'm getting more and more nervous!" Sonoko said excitedly.

"We're almost there," Lin Jin said, parking the car in a hotel parking lot.

After he got out of the car, he gestured for everyone to follow him.

After entering Hotel 783, Lin Jin led the three of them directly upstairs to a guest room on the second floor and knocked on the door.

"Who is it?" a pleasant-sounding female voice came from inside the house.

"I am Lin Jin," Lin Jin introduced himself.

"Coming!!" came a reply from inside the house, followed by the sound of hurried footsteps.

With a click, the door opened, and a beautiful figure emerged from the room, immediately throwing herself onto Lin Jin.

Everyone was shocked.

Before Ran and Sonoko could even feel jealous, they exclaimed in surprise after seeing each other clearly, "Yo...Miss Yoko?"

They had met Yoko Okino before, so while they were surprised, they weren't too astonished!

On the contrary, Kogoro Mouri raised his voice several decibels: "Miss Yoko?!?"

His eyes widened in disbelief!

Of course, even more unbelievable is that the other party actually threw himself into Lin Jin's arms!

Damn it, why didn't it pounce on me?

"It's...it's me." Yoko Okino hadn't expected there to be anyone else.

She quickly stepped out of Lin Jin's arms, her face flushed, and said shyly, "It's not convenient to talk outside, please come in!"

Lin Jin walked in calmly, and Xiao Lan and Yuanzi greeted Okino Yoko with joy.

Only Kogoro Mouri, while excited and thrilled, also felt quite annoyed!

Chapter 153 Yoko Okino's Little Thoughts (3rd Update)

"Oh, I see."

"You asked Lin to help you solve some problems before!"

"No wonder you two know each other."

"........."

Inside the room, after learning the general outline of the matter, Kogoro Mouri nodded knowingly.

He looked at Lin Jin with a complicated expression, truly feeling envious, jealous, and resentful!

That's my idol, Yoko Okino!

Why wasn't I the one who took the case?

He also longed to be relied upon by Yoko Okino, and then to be hugged tightly by her!

I may be envious, but there's nothing I can do; they just have the ability.

Thinking of this, Kogoro Mouri couldn't help but sigh.

Watching your goddess throw herself into your arms like that is incredibly painful!

At this moment, Sonoko spoke up, "Brother Lin, is introducing us to Yoko Okino the surprise you mentioned? If so, it's not quite enough~~"

"Mmm." Ran nodded in agreement, "Since Sonoko and I had already met Ms. Yoko before, we weren't that surprised."

“If that’s all, of course it’s not enough,” Lin Jin smiled and said, “But what if you could also act alongside Yoko Okino?”

Upon hearing this, Xiaolan Yuanzi's face immediately lit up with joy, overjoyed: "Huh? Is this true?"

"Can we also act in a movie with Ms. Yoko?"

Not only were they excited, but even Kogoro Mouri next to them was flushed with excitement, shouting, "What about me? Lin!! Have you assigned me a role yet?"

"Don't worry, you'll all get a share, otherwise what kind of surprise would it be?" Lin Jin reassured them that they could relax.

Yoko Okino, who was standing next to her, covered her mouth and said, "We're filming a crime drama, and since Mr. Lin is coming to visit me, I suggested to the director that Mr. Lin provide guidance."

"The director readily agreed and even offered payment."

"However, Lin Jin said he didn't need any payment, but he needed a few minor roles for his friends to experience what it's like to act."

After receiving the answer from Yoko Okino, Ran and the other two immediately looked at Lin Jin with touched eyes.

Especially Kogoro Mouri.

The other party quietly sought benefits for him and even fulfilled his dream of acting with Yoko Okino!

And just moments ago, he was feeling jealous of Lin Jin.

Immediately, he lowered his head in shame, feeling utterly ashamed!

“Even though it’s just a minor role, you should still take it seriously.” Lin Jin joked, “Miss Yukiko became famous overnight with just a minor role… Maybe you will be the next Miss Yukiko.”

The moment the chicken soup was poured in, the three of them were instantly energized and excited.

At that moment, Xiaolan seemed to remember something and asked curiously, "Wait, Brother Lin. What about you? Are you going to film too?"

“Brother Lin, he should be playing a very famous and brilliant detective, right? That would fit his image!” Sonoko said matter-of-factly.

“Hmm…that’s right.” Kogoro Mouri stroked his chin and said, “However, he’s not the main character, so he can’t steal the spotlight from the main character. He can’t be a detective, maybe he’d be better off as a policeman.”

“You’re all wrong,” Lin Jin shrugged and said, “I have no intention of performing.”

"Huh?" Xiaolan Yuanzi looked regretful upon hearing this.

However, considering that Lin Jin genuinely dislikes appearing on television and doesn't even want to participate in interviews or press conferences, they understood.

Yoko Okino, standing nearby, covered her mouth and laughed, "If Lin-kun were to appear, it would give the director a real headache. He'd steal the spotlight from the main character too easily!"

“That makes sense!” Ran and Sonoko nodded in relief.

After chatting for a while, Yoko Okino glanced at her watch and reminded him, "Lin-kun, it's almost time. We should go meet with the director."

Seeing this, Lin Jin said, "Alright, then I'll take them to check in."
