Conan: The Romantic Daily Life of a Ghost Detective

With preparations complete, Wen Shui and Conan patiently waited for the arrival of the criminals.

Around 7 a.m., Yukiko Kudo opened the kitchen door precisely on time. This time, she had once again disguised herself as Fumiyo Edogawa.

Upon opening the door and discovering that Conan was nowhere to be found, Fumiyo Edogawa flew into a rage and demanded to know where that brat Nukumizu had gone.

Wen Shui gritted her teeth and refused to say a word.

Finally, Fumiyo Edogawa deliberately said something for Conan to hear: "Take warm water to the Beika Grand Hotel and have him and his trading partner take that drug together."

They left the wooden villa together.

.

Yukiko Kudo drove her green sedan and quickly left the villa's observation range.

Having arrived at a place where Conan wouldn't see them, Wen Shui, sitting in the passenger seat, relaxed and no longer needed to act.

What surprised Wen Shui even more was that Kudo Yukiko seemed to have forgotten what happened last night, behaving much the same as when they first met.

This made the atmosphere inside the car less awkward than I had imagined.

Wen Shui looked around and found that there were endless forests on both sides of the road. The morning sun pierced through the mist that shrouded the forest, and birds chirped one after another. Wen Shui also vaguely saw a bear wandering in the forest.

The mountain road wasn't in very good condition, and the ride was a bit bumpy.

Every time the car tires drove over a large pothole, a soft rustling sound would emanate from Yukiko Kudo's body.

After several attempts, she parked her car on the side of the road.

Then she took off her coat, and to Wen Shui's surprise, her coat was filled with many fist-sized balls of paper to support the figure of Aunt Edogawa Fumiyo.

"It's so hot. If I had known it would be like this here, I should have dressed as a thinner person."

Yukiko Kudo tore off her thick wig and mask, and complained as she put on her disguise.

Perhaps for the sake of disguise, Yukiko Kudo wore only a thin green dress under her coat.

The dress was a very form-fitting style, which perfectly showcased her slender waist and curvaceous figure.

Wen Shui subconsciously conjured up memories of holding them in her hands and doing whatever she wanted.

My gaze moved downwards, past her slender waist that could be encircled by a single hand.

Her long, slender legs, encased in black stockings, revealed glimpses of flesh.

Although the high heels she wore weren't as extravagant as the "Leather Queen's" outfit from last night, they still perfectly showcased her fashionista taste.

The bright sunlight shone through the car window onto her, and the fine beads of sweat on her slender, snow-white neck shimmered with an alluring luster, making one wonder whether the taste was more sweet or salty.

Because she had sweated a lot, the carriage was immediately filled with the soft fragrance unique to the lovely lady.

Noticing Wen Shui's gaze, Kudo Yukiko's relaxed mood suddenly tensed up, and her body stiffened.

In reality, Yukiko Kudo was far less indifferent than Numizu thought.

However, after she got up in the morning, she used acting techniques to put herself into the role of a mother-type kidnapper in order to keep herself calm and try not to let her husband and son notice anything amiss.

At first, it worked very well, but Wen Shui's gaze seemed to have a blood-blood suppression effect on her.

This immediately reminded Yukiko Kudo of what had happened in the bathroom the previous night, and the terrible dream she had after the warm water left.

Yukiko Kudo feigned composure, glancing out of the corner of her eye at the co-pilot, Norizuki.

Then he noticed that when Wen Shui's gaze fell on her legs, a look of admiration and infatuation appeared on his face.

Hmph, is this what all kids like these days?

A faint sense of superiority welled up in Yukiko Kudo's heart, and she couldn't help but curl her lips into a small smile.

However, this sense of superiority quickly transformed into a sense of immorality under the influence of worldly views.

A strong sense of immorality stirred a ripple in Yukiko Kudo's heart, and her small feet in black stockings, tucked into high heels, couldn't help but curl up into a ball.

She had to open the window to let the fresh air from the woods into the car to dispel the random thoughts in her mind.

"Sweating so much and then being exposed to a draft, you're likely to catch a cold," Wen Shui kindly reminded her.

Mrs. Kudo blushed at the unexpected concern and glared at Wen Shui: "I'm not as fragile as you think. I should have been exposed to the cold wind in the morning to wake up my brain."

With that, she slammed on the gas pedal, her slender, slightly wavy brown hair blowing in the wind and brushing against her warm cheeks.

After driving for about ten more minutes, Wen Shui suddenly shouted, "Pull over and stop the car."

Yukiko Kudo didn't slow down and asked in confusion, "What? We're still far from the city. I'll take you to the city later, but you have to be careful not to be seen, or we'll be exposed."

Wen Shui rolled her eyes: "I need to go to the toilet."

Yukiko Kudo paused for a moment, then instinctively retorted, "Didn't we already do it last night?"

"Just because you showered yesterday doesn't mean you shouldn't shower today!" Wen Shui couldn't help but complain. Then she realized that she seemed to have inadvertently touched on Mrs. Kudo's sore spot.

Sure enough, Yukiko Kudo's delicate, fair face turned as red as if it could bleed, and her beautiful eyes revealed a look of shame and indignation as she glared angrily at Wen Shui.

"Uh, I was just giving an example." Wen Shui shrugged.

Although Yukiko Kudo was very angry, she still slowly pulled the car over to the side of the road.

Wen Shui opened the car door and walked into the woods on both sides of the road. Less than a minute later, Wen Shui returned.

Yukiko Kudo frowned slightly: "Why are you back so soon? Is anyone nearby?"

She was a little worried that others would see her without her disguise, so she rolled up the car window.

Warm Water: "No, it's just that the diameter is larger."

"What... what?" Mrs. Kudo's cherry lips parted slightly, not reacting for a moment.

"It's nothing, let's drive quickly." Wen Shui pointed to the clock on the dashboard. "It's almost rush hour, there might be a traffic jam."

Yukiko Kudo nodded and started the car.

After the car had driven more than ten meters, Mrs. Kudo finally realized what Wenshui had meant.

The screeching sound of brakes echoed along the quiet forest path.

.

The car quickly left the dirt road on the hillside and came to the asphalt road.

Yukiko Kudo also rolled up the car window.

The car windows are protected so that people outside cannot see inside, so even if Yukiko Kudo removes her disguise, she doesn't have to worry about being seen by others.

Of course, she would dress up as Bunta Edogawa again before getting off the train.

Not long after, as the car passed a stone bridge, Wen Shui suddenly saw a girl in a van passing by giving him a pleading look.

The girl probably couldn't see what was happening inside their car, but she still sent out a distress signal, meaning she was actually asking for help from a stranger.

The word "kidnapping" came to Wen Shui's mind.

Besides that, what bothered Wen Shui even more was that the girl seemed to be Xiao Lan's junior, Eriko.

Thinking of this, Wen Shui grabbed Kudo Yukiko's arm and said, "Ms. Kudo, I have something I'd like to ask you."

Yukiko Kudo's wrist was suddenly grabbed by warm water, and her fair face instantly turned bright red. Like a frightened little animal, she shook her head frantically.

"No, no, I already agreed to invest in a movie with you as hush money. I... I can't betray my son and husband..."

Warm water: ?

.

In the morning, at the Mihua Grand Hotel.

Conan found clues about the criminals' transaction at the villa, and then arrived at the Beika Grand Hotel before the transaction took place.

After a battle of wits and courage.

Conan eventually fell into Yusaku Kudo's trap and was subdued in a hotel room by the thug wearing the Dark Baron mask and another thug who looked very similar to Vodka.

However, after the gunshot rang out, pointed directly at his forehead...

The bullet fired from the pistol turned out to be a toy rubber sieve.

Afterwards, Yusaku Kudo and Professor Agasa removed their disguises and explained the whole story to Conan.

Conan crossed his arms and said with a disgruntled expression, "Honestly, how old are you all? You're still playing these childish games. By the way, where's my mom?"

Yusaku Kudo patted his son's head and asked in confusion, "She just texted saying there was a traffic jam on the road. That's strange, the morning rush hour should be over by now. Why hasn't Yukiko come yet?"

Yusaku Kudo picked up the phone and called his wife, but this time no one answered.

Conan was startled and snatched the phone, dialing Wen Shui's number.

However, the phone in the warm water also remained unanswered.

Yusaku Kudo frowned slightly: "Even if Yukiko's disguise was seen through by Nukumi, she wouldn't stop answering the phone, would she? Could she be in trouble?"

"Could it be that Wen Shui got angry after realizing she'd been tricked and kidnapped Yukiko?" Professor Agasa interjected.

Yusaku Kudo smiled and said, "How could that be? Let's wait a bit longer."

Yusaku Kudo didn't seem to think anything would happen to his wife, but Conan, who was standing next to him, suddenly had a bad feeling.

Under normal circumstances, Wen Shui would not do anything excessive to Kudo Yukiko, but if Wen Shui knew the secret of his body shrinking, it might bring him danger.

Conan remembered that in the comics he read at midnight, there were many stories of young mothers making sacrifices to prevent secrets from being leaked or to protect their sons.

Conan quickly ran to the corridor and called Ran to ask if she could get in touch with Wen Shui.

"Conan-kun, is there... something wrong?" Ran's panting voice came from the other end of the phone.

Conan's face turned pale. No, no way?

Even Xiaolan was swayed by that bastard Wen Shui...

"Ran, where are you? Why are you out of breath?" Conan asked anxiously, not even calling her "Ran-neechan" anymore.

Ran took a slight breath: "I'm at Wen Shui-kun's house. I'm cleaning for him and stewing the leftover meat from the fridge. Conan, why don't you come over to Wen Shui's house for dinner tonight?"

Conan held up the phone, a complicated expression on his face.

Although things weren't as bad as he thought, it was still hard to be happy about his childhood sweetheart helping someone else clean and cook.

In addition, my mother and Wen Shui lost contact.

Conan's negative emotions clouded his judgment. He took a deep breath and shouted into the phone, "I just saw Wen Shui-gege going on a date with another woman!"
