Chapter 692 We didn't send you here to steal our partners.

at the same time.

At an ice cream stand, the snow woman gazed at the dazzling array of ice creams before her, lost in thought.

Five minutes passed.

Ten minutes passed.

Half an hour has passed...

"Snow, Snow Woman..." Princess Kaguya cautiously tugged at the Snow Woman's sleeve, weakly reminding her, "We've been delayed for a long time, haven't you made your choice yet..."

"Almost done!" The Snow Woman leaned on the counter, her eyes shining as she looked at the ice cream. Without turning her head, she gave Kaguya a perfunctory answer. "Chocolate, vanilla, strawberry, herring... which one should I buy?"

If she had more money, she would have loved to buy all of these ice creams.

"But...but we haven't even started looking for the treasure yet..."

Kaguya looked somewhat aggrieved as she touched her empty pockets.

They were supposed to travel all over the world to find the buried treasure of Solomon, but before they even started looking for the first treasure, all their starting funds had already been spent by the Snow Woman on ice cream.

Princess Kaguya had lost count of how many ice cream stalls the Snow Woman had stopped at.

Suddenly, she felt as if the game was over before it even started.

Thinking of this, Princess Kaguya suddenly froze, almost falling off the bamboo.

For some reason, she suddenly had a strange thought: could it be that this Snow Woman was shamelessly dragging her into the game just to get more starting funds to buy ice cream?

She was actually planning to play the game with me!

Oh no, this is terrible...

I was fooled!

……

London Opera House.

As night fell completely, the opera house revealed a completely different side of the world, unlike the London I had seen before.

The opera house was brightly lit, filled with elegant music, and gentlemen and ladies in formal attire entered arm in arm.

In order to meet the female protagonist of this story, Irene Adler.

At everyone's request, Yuya Aragaki used his facial recognition to buy a bouquet of flowers from a female florist, intending to disguise himself as Irene Adler's friends and family and sneak into the opera house backstage to explain the situation to her.

Although there was a minor hiccup, the group managed to reach the door of Eileen Adler's dressing room in the backstage area without incident.

"Is this the place? I wonder what kind of person she is. I'm so excited!"

Looking at the room with the poster on the door, Xiaolan was also full of anticipation for meeting Eileen Adler.

At this moment, Conan had a bad feeling. "The role my dad played, and it's with the woman Holmes loves most..."

"Please come in!"

After Xiaolan knocked on the door, a young woman's voice came from inside the room.

"excuse me."

The group pushed open the door and entered the room.

Eileen Adler's lounge is spacious and exquisitely decorated.

On the inner single sofa sat a graceful woman with long hair reaching her waist.

Hearing someone enter the room, she immediately stood up from the sofa, lifted her skirt, and turned around to look at them with a smile.

"Hello, everyone."

Unlike the second and third generation children who were stunned when they saw Eileen Adler's stunning face.

When Xiaolan saw "Eileen Adler's" face clearly, she was completely stunned.

"Shinichi's mother...!?"

Conan looked at his "mother" and couldn't help but wipe the cold sweat from his forehead. "Just as I expected..."

Even Aragaki Yu and Haibara Ai had to admit this.

The exceptionally beautiful woman in front of me looks exactly like Yukiko Kudo.

Not only their faces, but also their hairstyles and body shapes are exactly the same.

Good guy...

Sherlock Holmes is Yusaku Kudo, Walter Johnson is Professor Agasa, and Irene Adler is directly transformed into Yukiko Kudo.

It's likely that Yusaku Kudo was willing to help design the "Cocoon" game for this very purpose.

On the other side, when Eileen Adler heard Xiao Lan's address, she was slightly taken aback at first, but then immediately put her hands on her hips and made an angry expression, "How rude, she's single now... to be precise, she's single again after her divorce."

Even though she was trying to keep a straight face, Eileen Adler couldn't help but laugh at this point.

"Sorry, I mistook you for someone else!" Ran quickly nudged Aragaki Yu, who was holding a bouquet of flowers, trying to change the subject. "This is good fortune..."

However, before Xiaolan could finish speaking...

When Eileen Adler's gaze fell upon Aragaki Yu, who had been pulled forward, she was immediately struck by his presence.

The next second, amidst everyone's shocked expressions, Eileen Adler, lifting her skirt, took small, quick steps and ran to Aragaki Yu. As she took the bouquet from his hand, she immediately linked an arm around his. "I know, you must be my fan, right? I never imagined a woman my age would have such a handsome young man admiring her. It's so exciting, oh ho ho~"

Then, before everyone could react, Eileen Adler moved with a seductive grace, as if she wanted to cling to Aragaki Yu's side, her limbs coiling around him like a snake, one hand affectionately holding Aragaki Yu's arm, the other arm around his neck.

She tiptoed closer to Aragaki Yu's face, her red lips parted slightly, her fragrant breath carrying a hint of allure, and she spoke each word with a delicate, orchid-like breath: "Handsome young man, after this performance ends, would you like to have a romantic dinner with me?"

Xiaolan: (☉_☉)

Ai Haibara: (?▼Profit▼)

Conan: "..."

Seeing Irene Adler, who looked like his mother, shamelessly crowding around Aragaki Yu, Conan turned his face away with a terrible headache.

Now it seems that not only his appearance and physique, but even his personality is just as "bad" as his mother's.

"Wait...wait a minute!"

Seeing Aragaki Yu struggling to break free from Eileen Adler's grasp, Ran, finally snapping out of her daze, quickly stepped forward and pulled Aragaki Yu out of her arms.

Then, under Eileen Adler's disapproving gaze, Ran awkwardly stepped in front of Aragaki Yu to explain, "This bouquet was actually given to you by Mr. Holmes."

Ran snatched the bouquet from Yuu Aragaki's hand and handed it to Eileen Adler.

At that moment, she felt that handing the bouquet to Aragaki Yu was a mistake.

He had originally thought that his good looks would make it easier to get close to Irene Adler and gain her trust.

But now it seems this guy's charm is just too amazing.

Thinking of this, Xiaolan couldn't help but turn around and glare fiercely at Aragaki Yu.

Please, we're here to protect Miss Irene Adler, not for you to steal Holmes's woman!

Chapter 693 The Unreliable Miss Eileen

"Sherlock Holmes? What did you say... cough cough..."

Miss Eileen Adler, whose gaze was still fixed on Aragaki Yu, was about to retort subconsciously, but she managed to come to her senses amidst the strange looks from everyone. "Oh! Cough cough... You mean Mr. Holmes? Oh, I see."

Under Conan's hopeless gaze, Irene Adler awkwardly smoothed her hair, using the act of adjusting her clothes to regain her original dignified demeanor.

Then, holding the flowers in her hands, she smiled happily and said, "Thank you, where is Holmes?"

Xiaolan: "Uh..."

Looking at Miss Irene Adler in front of her, Xiaolan was certain that during that time, she must have completely forgotten about Mr. Holmes.

However, Xiaolan eventually offered a tactful explanation for Holmes, who was away on a case, saying, "He was really looking forward to today's stage performance, but he couldn't come because he had to investigate the case."

"Oh."

Eileen Adler, whose gaze involuntarily fell upon Aragaki Yu again, gave a somewhat perfunctory reply.

It wasn't until Aragaki Yu coughed lightly to remind her that Eileen Adler suddenly realized that her reaction was somewhat out of character.

The next second, she hurriedly looked around and changed her words, saying, "Ah, no... I meant it's such a pity."

Everyone: "..."

Noah's Ark: "..."

Noah's Ark, acting as artificial intelligence, looked helplessly at Eileen Adler before it.

He suddenly felt that compared to himself, these meticulously designed NPCs were practically like artificial idiots.

Conan felt he couldn't bear to look at the unreliable Miss Irene Adler in front of him.

If it weren't for the fact that Professor Agasa had mentioned his mother attending some class reunion, he would have thought that this Miss Irene Adler must be his mother playing the role herself.
