Conan: The Romantic Daily Life of a Ghost Detective

Xiaolan and Wenshui stopped moving at the same time. Wenshui's hand remained in mid-air as she listened carefully to the sounds in the distance.

After Xiaolan discovered that Wenshui dared not move, she secretly used her toes to flick up a stream of water, accurately hitting the defenseless Wenshui.

Wen Shui looked at Xiao Lan with a resentful expression.

The hot spring water here is quite clean, with a faint sulfur smell. However, if you accidentally drink the warm water, you'll find a subtle cherry blossom flavor in the aftertaste.

Wen Shui's expression was somewhat complicated, because he remembered that Xiao Lan's body lotion seemed to be cherry blossom scented.

Although it smelled quite nice when I covered my face with it, I'm worried that drinking this might upset my stomach.

Soon, the footsteps in the distance grew closer.

It was already clear that the two people walking over were Kogoro Mouri and Eri Kisaki.

Xiao Lan's smile vanished instantly. She picked up the wooden clogs beside her, put them on, and, dragging Wen Shui along, slipped into another path to escape.

As a result, she accidentally stepped on a stone and sprained her ankle.

Seeing that Xiaolan was enduring the pain in her ankle and was trying to hide behind the bushes to see why Uncle Mori and Eri were there, Wen Shui couldn't help but advise, "Why don't we leave here first?"

Xiaolan shook her head and said in a low voice, "No, this is a crucial moment. We might be able to overhear what Mom and Dad are thinking. I'll just have to be patient for a bit."

As she spoke, she picked up her wrist and bit it with her teeth, trying to relieve the pain and distract herself.

Wen Shui sighed.

Although I admire your ruthlessness.

But please, can you not take your anger out on my wrist?

.

Kogoro Mouri and Eri Kisaki were both wearing navy blue yukatas from the hotel.

The two walked to the front of the open-air hot spring.

Kogoro Mori looked down and observed, "Huh, it looks like someone was here just now, there's water splashed all around."

Eri Kisaki smiled faintly: "They're probably guests from a nearby hotel. They look like young people on a date. I should have waited a bit."

"What are you saying? We're here too... uh, to enjoy the scenery." Uncle Mori blushed.

Eri Kisaki lowered her head shyly.

Xiao Lan, hiding behind the bushes, widened her eyes excitedly, her cute tiger teeth deeply embedded in Wen Shui's arm.

Wen Shui was speechless.

Wen Shui wondered to herself whether being bitten by Xiao Lan would grant her some karate skills, like the vampire's Embrace.

Afterwards, Kogoro Mouri and Eri Kisaki sat by the hot spring pool and chatted about their recent lives, just like the others had done earlier.

The two hid behind the bushes and eavesdropped for a while.

It was only then that Wen Shui learned that Kogoro Mouri and Eri Kisaki had bathed in this hot spring when Kogoro was young. However, Wen Shui had no idea whether they had bathed in swimsuits or something more daring back then.

After more than ten minutes, Xiaolan felt it was time to go back early, so she secretly left with Wenshui through another path.

I forced myself to walk along a mountain path that was some distance from the open-air hot spring.

Xiaolan suddenly stopped in her tracks, looking at Wenshui without saying a word.

Wen Shui frowned slightly: "What's wrong?"

Xiao Lan said pitifully, "My ankle hurts a little."

Wen Shui raised her arm, showing the two rows of teeth marks on her wrist in the moonlight: "Coincidentally, I don't know what kind of animal bit my hand just now."

Ran crossed her arms, looking displeased: "Wen Shui-kun, this isn't the time to talk about this. Standing in front of you is a cute girl wearing a swimsuit under her yukata. Aren't you even a little bit tempted?"

Wen Shui sighed, "Alright, then what do you suggest we do?"

“Carry me back.”

"Huh? Is that the move?" Wen Shui looked at Xiao Lan in surprise.

Ran's cheeks flushed slightly as she looked down at her toes. "This time it's different. I really can't walk too fast. It would be troublesome if Mom and Dad caught up with us, and I don't know if Conan will find this place..."

Before Xiaolan could finish speaking, she found Wenshui already standing in front of her.

"Come on up, Miss, let me check if you've gained weight recently," Wen Shui said with a smile.

Xiaolan gently hugged Wenshui's back: "How could such a thing happen? I've been carefully controlling my weight lately."

The heavy weight pressed down on Wen Shui's body, but he felt as if his body was fully fueled, with inexhaustible strength.

The main credit goes to the two lumps of fat pressing down on the back.

In addition, Xiaolan's soft fragrance and the black hair that occasionally brushed against his cheek also played a role.

"Have I gained weight?" Xiaolan whispered in his ear.

The warm breath entered her ear canal, and Wen Shui couldn't help but shiver: "Stop messing around, we're walking."

"Oh."

Xiaolan distanced herself, staring blankly at Wen Shui's profile, forgetting the question from earlier.

After walking for a while, soon you can see the Benkei Ryokan sign when you look up.

"Oh, by the way, thank you for today," Xiaolan said softly, resting her chin on his shoulder.

Wen Shui: "Didn't I tell you before? Don't be so polite."

"Just drop me off at the hotel entrance. If Conan sees me, he'll definitely tell Dad," Ran said.

Wen Shui turned around to check on Xiao Lan, but almost bumped into her small, cute lips: "Can you walk by yourself?"

“This distance is no problem.” Xiaolan nodded gently.

Wen Shui walked to a pillar where someone could hold onto it, put Xiao Lan down, and then turned his back to Xiao Lan to look at the stars in the sky.

"Hey, aren't you going back?" Xiaolan looked at Wenshui, who had his back to her, with a puzzled expression.

Wen Shui didn't even turn her head: "Yeah, I'm going to cool off outside for a bit."

Xiao Lan frowned slightly, feeling that this guy was a bit strange. Then she quietly went around to the front of Wen Shui to observe his expression, but she was soon attracted by another Wen Shui.

"You bastard, you're actually... a pervert!"

Xiao Lan's face was flushed, and she stomped her feet and left.

After calming down for a while, Wen Shui turned around and went back to his hotel room. As soon as he opened the door, he saw a cup of hot milk on the bedside table with a note underneath.

The handwriting is clearly Xiaolan's.

She once again expressed her gratitude for the help she received tonight in bringing her parents together, and even drew a cute, simple self-portrait in the upper corner.

Wen Shui smiled and put the note into her suitcase, intending to keep it safe.

.

The next day, Uncle Mori and Eri got into an argument early in the morning.

While eating, Xiaolan kept looking at Wenshui with pleading eyes.

Wen Shui shrugged, indicating that he was powerless to help, thinking that he could only try to make his uncle stand out next time he encountered a case.

During the day, Wen Shui and Xiao Lan strolled around the surrounding commercial streets and went to a temple to pray for blessings.

Then, around noon, the group returned to Beika Town.

When Wen Shui returned to her rented apartment, it was already afternoon.

A moving company truck was parked downstairs at the apartment building, and under the scorching sun, the movers were carrying things into the house next door.

Wen Shui looked at the family with curiosity.

Since the Wenshui crossing, this house has never been rented out.

It seems there are new tenants.

I wonder what kind of person my new neighbor will be.

After returning home, Wen Shui took a nap, and was not awakened until almost evening by a polite knock on the door.

Wen Shui, still half asleep, walked to the entrance hall: "Who is it?"

"It's the new neighbor who moved in next door," a clear and pleasant voice came from outside the door.

Wen Shui opened the door and took a look.

A stunningly beautiful woman with a voluptuous figure stood at the door.

She wore black-rimmed glasses, her hair was tied up, giving her a friendly, down-to-earth vibe. She wore cool flip-flops, revealing her long, slender, fair, and shapely legs, with beads of sweat on her collarbone adding a touch of elegance.

She was like a ripe peach, exuding a fatal allure.

It makes one want to pin her against the front door.

Let's examine whether this person's body is indeed as full of tempting juice as a peach.

but……

Wen Shui immediately closed the door.

"Damn it, what do you mean by this?" Kudo Yukiko's furious voice came from outside the door, shattering Wen Shui's previous fantasies about her new neighbor.

Chapter 137 Mrs. Kudo's Bet: The Victory Celebration is Destined to Be More Than Simple

"Hey, what do you mean by this?" Yukiko Kudo angrily banged on the door of the Nuwa family's house.

She put a lot of thought into this outfit; although it looks simple, it's not particularly special.

But it is precisely this just-right sense of intimacy that is most effective in winning over kids like Wen Shui who like to read taboo comics.

Yukiko Kudo originally intended to use this method to motivate Onami and get him to write the script faster.

But to her surprise, the young man wouldn't even let her through the door; she was turned away.

The psychological gap between then and now is something that former popular idol Yukiko Kudo cannot accept.

"Sorry, you remind me a bit of someone I know. Every time I get involved with her, I end up getting taken advantage of for no reason, so I'm starting to have PTSD," Wen Shui teased through the door, seemingly with no intention of opening it.

Yukiko Kudo's eyes widened: "Shouldn't this be what I'm worried about?"
