Detective Conan: Birth of the Demon Child

Therefore, the descendants of the landlords have no stable income, and with dozens of people in their families, food alone is a considerable expense every day.

Fortunately, some valuables were left in the old house of the Zhuang family, which allowed the Zhuang family's descendants to barely maintain a normal life.

However, this approach is definitely not feasible. The remaining members of the dealers must find a way to secure a stable source of income.

Suzuki Seimei also saw the plight of the Zhuang family's widows, which is why he planned to give them several shops in a nearby city.

With the property deeds for these shops, the landlords only need to collect rent every now and then to solve the problem of insufficient income.

With the abilities of the third young mistress of the Zhuang family, once they have a stable source of income, they can find a way to change their appearance and live a completely new life, no longer needing to live this life of hiding and running away.

"Madam Zhuang, you don't need to be so polite with me. Just put away these shop deeds in peace."

Aizen grabbed the small hand of the third young mistress of the Zhuang family and shoved the house deeds and land deeds into her hand, saying in an unyielding tone, "I found these house deeds and land deeds in Ao Bai's mansion. He must have robbed them from innocent people. Just consider it as me robbing the rich to help the poor."

Besides, I'm used to traveling around, so these property deeds are in my hands; whether I have them or not makes no difference. What you need now is these property deeds more.

"..."

The third young mistress of the Zhuang family sensed the sincerity in Lan Ran's tone, her beautiful eyes filled with emotion. She wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes and said, "My benefactor's kindness is immense, and I will never forget it. If there is ever any need for your help in the future, I will go through fire and water without hesitation!"

"In that case, I do have a favor to ask."

"Please speak freely, my benefactor!"

Aizen glanced at Shuang'er and said with a smile, "I happen to be short of a thoughtful and sensible maid. Miss Shuang'er is intelligent and quick-witted. I wonder if Madam Zhuang could send her to me?"

???

Upon hearing this, the third young mistress of the Zhuang family was slightly taken aback at first, but quickly came to her senses, and a hint of gratitude appeared in her eyes as she looked at Aizen.

In the eyes of the third young mistress of the Zhuang family, a great hero like Aizen, who stands tall and upright, is definitely not the kind of shallow, lecherous person.

Aizen asked me for Shuang'er because he was worried that they would be under too much pressure accepting the property deeds. He deliberately made the request to reduce their psychological pressure.

After all, given the current situation of the Zhuang family's surviving members, they have no other valuable gifts to offer besides sending them to Aizen as maids.

The third young mistress of the Zhuang family instructed Shuang'er: "Shuang'er, from now on you will follow Master Lan! He is a great benefactor of our Zhuang family, you must serve him diligently, understand?"

"Ok!"

Shuang'er obediently responded, then knelt down in front of the Third Young Mistress of the Zhuang family and kowtowed, saying, "Third Young Mistress, Shuang'er will definitely serve the young master well. After Shuang'er is gone, please take good care of yourself."

"My dear child, get up quickly!"

Seeing this, the third young mistress of the Zhuang family had a hint of reluctance in her eyes. She reached out and gently stroked the girl's hair, helping her up.

After Shuang'er stood up, she walked up to Lan Ran and bowed gracefully, saying, "Shuang'er greets Young Master."

"No need for such formalities!"

Aizen took Shuang'er's small hand, took out a string of crystal-clear ruby ​​necklaces, put it in her hand, and said with a smile, "Consider this necklace my gift to you."

"Ding! Congratulations on successfully signing in, Shuang'er. You are rewarded with two years' worth of [Pure Inner Strength], which you can claim at any time."

"Thank you, young master~"

Looking at the priceless ruby ​​necklace, Shuang'er couldn't help but smile happily.

Bathed in candlelight, the ruby ​​necklace shone brilliantly, making Shuang'er, who wore it, appear even more beautiful and charming.

Upon seeing that Aizen had given Shuang'er such a precious gemstone necklace so soon after their first meeting, the third young mistress of the Zhuang family knew that Shuang'er wouldn't suffer if she followed him, and her smile became even brighter: "My benefactor, it's getting late. Why don't you stay at my humble abode for the night and return to town tomorrow?"

"Thank you for your kindness, Madam Zhuang, but I have several friends waiting for me at the inn. If I go back tomorrow, I'm afraid they'll worry." Lan Ran shook his head, declining the suggestion from the third young mistress of the Zhuang family.

The third young mistress of the Zhuang family said, "In that case, I will not keep my benefactor at home. Please be careful on the road."

"Then we'll take our leave!"

As soon as Aizen finished speaking, he took Shuang'er's little hand with his right hand, picked up Suzuki Seimei with his left hand, and hurried back to Laifu Inn.

To avoid frightening Shuang'er, who was new to the place, Suzuki Seimei did not rush to eat her. Instead, he manipulated Aizen to go find Fang Yi and the others, while he took Shuang'er to another room to rest.

Chapter 366 New recruits fear artillery, veterans fear guns (First update, please vote)

next morning

Ake and Aqi, who were severely sleep-deprived, were slightly taken aback when they saw Shuang'er, the new maid, before they hurriedly extended a warm welcome.

After personally experiencing Aizen's terrifying endurance, Ake and the others finally understood why Fang Yi and the other two women were so enthusiastic towards them.

As the saying goes, "New recruits are afraid of artillery, and veterans are afraid of guns!"

Compared to Fang Yi and the other two veterans who had been through countless battles, A Ke and A Qi were clearly new recruits who had just arrived on the battlefield and had no idea what to do when they arrived at the battlefield amidst the gunfire.

Seeing Shuang'er, this greenhorn, arrive now, Ake and Aqi felt as if they were seeing themselves yesterday, and instantly understood the joy of training new recruits.

The innocent Shuang'er was unaware of Ake and the others' "malicious intentions." Instead, she thought they were all warm and friendly people and quickly became friends with them, starting to call each other sisters.

Having learned their lesson from being tricked yesterday, Ake and Aqi followed suit, taking Shuang'er for a stroll around town and reinforcing their "plastic sisterhood."

When it was time for dinner, Ake and the others exchanged glances, a knowing smirk flashing in their eyes, and began to take turns toasting Shuang'er.

The eldest, Aqi, was the first to stand up, raising her glass and saying, "Sister Shuang'er, welcome to our big family! Let me toast you first!"

"Thank you, Sister Aqi."

When Aqi offered her a toast, Shuang'er quickly and obediently stood up and drank the wine in her glass in one gulp.

"Sister Shuang'er, let me also raise a toast to you!"

"Thank you, Sister Ake~"

"Shuang'er..."

With the five women taking turns toasting her, Shuang'er, who had a low alcohol tolerance, soon found herself unable to keep up and her head began to spin.

Seeing Shuang'er's pretty face flushed red and her unsteady gait, Ake and the others finally revealed wicked smiles of triumph and escorted her into the battlefield.

Aizen, who was in charge of guarding the border, saw that Ako and the others were trying to break through the barrier without knowing what was going on, so he immediately pulled out his Italian cannon.

fire!

!

With Aizen's command, the Italian cannons burst into flames and fire, sending Fang Yi and the others screaming and fleeing in terror!

Shuang'er, who was on the battlefield for the first time, was betrayed by Fang Yi and the others, and became the first cannon fodder to die.

Boom boom boom...

Just as the battle on the battlefield reached its most critical moment, Master Jiunan, dressed in white, rushed back with a face full of excitement.

The place where Suzuki Seimei and the others are now is only about 200 miles away from Mount Wutai. With the speed at which Master Jiunan travels, she only needs half a day to make a round trip.

If it weren't for the fact that after arriving at Mount Wutai, Abbess Jiunan needed to confirm Shunzhi's identity, and that she spent some time resting along the way, she could have returned this morning.

Judging from the excited expression on Abbess Jiunan's face, it was clear that her assassination attempt on Emperor Shunzhi had gone very smoothly.

Although there are some monks with considerable martial arts skills in Qingliang Temple on Mount Wutai, they are still inferior to Master Jiunan in terms of martial arts.

Moreover, Master Jiunan infiltrated Qingliang Temple alone this time, without sending Ake and the others to alert the enemy.

Even with skilled bodyguards protecting him, Shunzhi could not have stopped the assassination attempt by Abbess Jiunan, given that the enemy was caught off guard.

"Uh……"

Back at Laifu Inn, Master Jiunan was about to tell Aizen the good news when she heard the sounds of fierce fighting outside the second-floor guest room. She froze on the spot.

(￣ ー￣)

Hearing Ake and Aqi's pleas for mercy, Abbess Jiunan's lips twitched, and she finally sighed helplessly, "Amitabha..."

She had only been gone for less than three days, and her two good disciples had already evolved from girls into women. They were truly so filial to Master Jiunan!

If it weren't for the great kindness Aizen had shown to Abbess Jiunan, and the opportunity he had given her to personally kill Shunzhi, her greatest enemy, she would have loved to tear those two traitorous disciples to pieces.

Even if Aizen is really that good, you don't need to give him away so easily right after meeting him, do you?

Do you think we're delivering takeout?

Where is your dignity as daughters?

Master Jiunan took a deep breath to calm her urge to hit someone. While she was blaming her two shameless disciples, she was also inexplicably envious.

If she had been more proactive back then, perhaps her ending with Yuan Chengzhi would have been different, instead of her being all alone now.

ε=(??ο｀*))) Sigh...

Master Jiunan stared at the closed door for a while, then shook her head listlessly and turned to go back to her room to rest.

Since Aizen is currently too busy to attend to other matters, Master Jiunan can only wait until tomorrow to tell him the good news that Shunzhi has died.

……

Early next morning

“(~O~)……”

Having just woken up, Ake and Aqi first stretched comfortably, then skillfully picked up the cocktails on the table and drank them down, instantly regaining their energy.

"It's already so late! No wonder I feel hungry."

When Aqi noticed that the sun in the sky was almost at its zenith, she subconsciously touched her lower abdomen.

"My husband is really something, he doesn't even know how to cherish a beautiful woman!"

Glancing at Shuang'er, who was still fast asleep, A'ke took A'qi's arm and said, "Senior Sister, Shuang'er will probably sleep a little longer before waking up. Let's go eat first!"

"Ah."

Aqi nodded slightly, and after washing up, the two walked towards the lobby on the first floor.

"Master...Master..."

When Ake and the others saw Master Jiunan talking to Aizen, their smiles instantly froze, and they couldn't help but show their guilty expressions.

"Alright! Come and sit down, everyone!"

Seeing Ake and the others standing there stunned, Master Jiunan said in an annoyed tone, "I already know about your affair with Master Lan."
