Conan: The Heart Thief

"I'm much better now. If nothing unexpected happens, you can be discharged from the hospital tomorrow." Kisaki Eri looked at him with a smile, and her eyes flickered with a tenderness that was rarely seen under normal circumstances.

"That's good. Do you need me to pick you up when the time comes?" Lin Xiao nodded.

"Of course not." Fei Yingli rolled her eyes at him. She was not a child, so how could she need you to pick her up? Besides, where would Lin Xiao take her to?

"Did you read today's news headlines?"

"What news?" Lin Xiao moved a chair and asked casually.

"It's about a criminal who turned himself in and suddenly died," said Hibiki Eri, her voice becoming much softer. "It's almost become a city legend. Do you know the details?"

"The details are...those who do evil will eventually perish. God is watching what you do. Karma will always pay off." Lin Xiao said.

"It's useless to say anything." Fei Yingli sighed softly. She knew that Lin Xiao didn't say anything, but she was too lazy to delve into it.

Lin Xiao didn't care. He picked up a fruit knife and sat beside him to peel an apple.

Fei Yingli watched Lin Xiao quietly peeling the apple, and her heart suddenly began to beat faster. She watched Lin Xiao peel the apple for her with a throbbing heart.

"Apple, here."

"Thank you."

Kisaki Eri took the peeled apple.

“Aunt Fei, if you have any difficulties in the future, you can come to me. Don’t treat me as an outsider.”

"You and Xiaolan are just lovers, aren't you being too polite?"

"I'm not doing this just for Xiaolan. If Auntie Hime and Maori Kogoro divorce, she will be single and have no man around her. Then I can be your support."

"Eh?"

Kisaki Eri stopped biting the apple. She was intoxicated by the safe feeling of being taken care of.

No matter how strong she is in the workplace, she is still just a woman after all.

When you are lonely, you need someone to accompany you. When you are sad, you want someone to comfort you. When you are troubled, you want someone to help you...

Fei Yingli couldn't help but bite her lip and met Lin Xiao's gaze with complicated eyes.

"If you put it that way, then I can't divorce Maori Kogoro. If something happens, I don't have a man to rely on."

"On the contrary. You can divorce Maori Kogoro without any worries. If anything happens, I will be your support."

"You really are a little brat!"

"I mean it."

"Ok."

Fei Yingli admitted that Lin Xiao was indeed a reliable man. After this man knew that she was poisoned, he only spent one day to find the murderer. She understood that it would be very troublesome to settle everything in such a short time. The most important thing was that he did it for her...

Fei Yingli suddenly looked away and said softly: "Thank you, Lin Xiao."

"Aunt Fei, don't be polite to me." Lin Xiao grinned, revealing his white and shining teeth.

For some unknown reason, Fei Yingli turned around with a blushing face and said softly, "Lin Xiao, come here."

"what?"

"Come here first." She looked annoyed and raised her arm towards Lin Xiao.

Lin Xiao walked to the bed with some confusion. He just opened his mouth and had no time to ask when he suddenly felt himself being hugged.

She smelled nice and her body was soft, and from this angle, I could clearly see her little ears and neck which had turned red due to shyness.

Without waiting for Lin Xiao to speak, she grabbed his arm and pulled him down to squat.

Then, those soft lips gently pressed against his forehead.

"This is a thank-you gift. Can't I tell Xiaolan about it?" she asked blushing.

Lin Xiao touched his forehead with surprise, seeming to be still in shock.

Fei Yingli smiled happily when she saw his look, and felt a little proud in her heart.

"Yes, I promise not to tell Xiaolan." Lin Xiao replied immediately.

Just when the atmosphere became ambiguous, Mao Lilan came over with a lunch box.

"what happens?"

Ran Mao Li looked blankly at her boyfriend and mother whose eyes were sparkling with fireworks.

When Lin Xiao and Fei Yingli heard the voice, they quickly turned their faces away.

……

The first thing Eri Kisaki did after being discharged from the hospital was to divorce Kogoro Mori. The divorce agreement had been drafted a long time ago, and all that was left was Kogoro Mori's signature.

At the Mouri Detective Agency, Kogoro Mouri was caught off guard when he saw Eri Kisaki holding a divorce papers in front of him.

"Eri, didn't you say you wouldn't divorce me before Xiaolan graduated?"

"I have obtained Xiaolan's consent. Stop talking nonsense and sign it quickly."

"Wait a minute, Eri, I think if you just act a little gentler, I'll be willing to make peace with you."

Maori Kogoro changed his mind at the last minute. After all, his estranged wife was a rare beauty, and she was also a lawyer who made a lot of money. It seemed a bit of a loss to divorce her like this. Although the cooking skills were not good, Xiaolan was there.

"Kogoro, who do you think you are? Do you really think I can't live without you?" Hibiki Eri was annoyed and crossed her arms over her shoulders. "These ten years of separation have proved that I can only live better without you!"

"No... I didn't chase you away in the first place. You ran away while I was on the toilet, leaving me and my daughter behind."

Kogoro Mouri looked like he was dead, which made Eri Kisaki feel very sick.

"Kogoro, you still dare to say that! You shot me in the leg and I almost became a cripple. Aren't you going to run away and die?"

"Eri, why are you still struggling with that matter? Didn't I apologize to you at the beginning? Not only that, I was forced to resign from my position as a criminal police officer and apologize to the citizens of Tokyo at a press conference. What else do you want?"

"Listen to me, Kogoro Mori, you deserve it." Eri Kisaki pointed at Kogoro Mori's nose, furious. As a sharpshooter of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department, she didn't shoot the criminals, but shot her hostage wife. She really owed him in her previous life. "Hurry up and sign. If you don't sign, I will go directly to the court. We have been separated for ten years, and the court will directly grant a divorce. Don't waste my time."

Maori Kogoro had no choice but to sign. He had seen this divorce agreement a long time ago. He and Kisaki Eri had discussed it and they would divorce when the time was right. As for Maori Ran's custody, it was up to Maori Ran herself to decide.

"Hiki Eri, you are such a heartless and bad woman." Kogoro Mouri cursed after signing.

"Mouri Kogoro, you are so ugly!" Kisaki Eri felt blind to marry such a bad man. She picked up the divorce agreement and left without looking back. If possible, she never wanted to see Mouri Kogoro again.

Chapter 205: Taking a Hot Spring Bath with Eri and Ran

Feiying accepted the invitation and went to the high-end holiday villa that had been booked, and brought Xiaolan and Lin Xiao with her.

After the divorce, Kisaki Eri became single again and completely cut off her relationship with Mouri Kogoro. She felt relaxed all over.

After Conan learned about the situation, he insisted on going along. Kisaki Eri thought Conan was just a child and didn't take it seriously, so she took Conan along as well.

Lin Xiao couldn't understand why Conan was following him. Was he deliberately eating the dog food of him and Mouri Ran?

The resort is located in Kusatsu Town, Agatsuma District, and is famous for its beautiful natural environment and highly therapeutic hot springs.

When we arrived at the lobby of the resort, a man with a mustache appeared at the door.

"Hey, you guys are finally here! We've been waiting for a long time!"

"It's Lawyer Saku. I'm so sorry for being so late. Thank you very much for your invitation."

It turns out that this person is...the initiator of this gathering - Saku Norifumi.

"You'd better come in first. The weather here has been average lately. It may rain at any time."

After entering the room, several of Hibiki Eri's colleagues were there. After exchanging greetings, Hibiki Eri enthusiastically introduced Lin Xiao and others.

The young and beautiful woman wearing a pink off-shoulder top is Ritsuko Usui.

The tall and fat man wearing a pair of glasses is Kenzo Shiozawa.

The honest-looking man with narrowed eyes is Yuji Mikasa.

After introducing her colleagues, Kisaki Eri then introduced the companions she brought with her.

When Kenzo Shiozawa heard Lin Xiao's identity, he started praising him without saying a word.

"How amazing! The invincible Queen of Law, Eri Hime, and the detective Lin Xiao, who can solve any case, are a perfect couple!"

Hearing such exaggerated praise from Shiozawa Kenzo, Kisaki Eri gladly accepted it: "Thank you..."

Usui Ritsuko was stunned for a moment. Did Kisaki Eri divorce just for this man?

Mikasa Yuji laughed and said, "But the more perfect one must be our powerful and generous lawyer Saku. He was able to overturn the verdict of such a big case in the second instance, made a lot of money after the overturning of the verdict, and even invited us to Izu for vacation, hahahaha!"

"It's nothing, I just happened to find a loophole. I'm sure there will be no problem if I hand it over to you all." Lawyer Saku was very humble and waved his hand.

At this time, Ritsuko Usui and Yuji Mikasa also joined the conversation.

"No way, I accidentally messed up during the initial review!" Yuji Mikasa scratched his head apologetically.

Usui Ritsuko raised her head proudly: "Attorney Saku, please don't be modest this time. If you want to be modest, please wait until I win a more impressive case next time!"

"Haha, the next lawsuit Lawyer Usui will face the undefeated Lawyer Wangfei. She is really ambitious and deserves to be the best lawyer of the new generation." Shiozawa Kenzo did not offend and began to praise Usui Ritsuko again.

However, this sentence made Mao Lilan a little confused. If her mother's next opponent is Usui Ritsuko, then now, if not to say that the situation is tense, at least it shouldn't be so harmonious!

"Lawyer Hime, this is your daughter, right? She seems a little confused!" Usui Ritsuko said with a smile.

Hibiki Eri immediately explained: "We are rivals at work, but in life we ​​are colleagues and friends in the same industry!"

"Yes yes yes!"

Usui Ritsuko nodded, and then suggested: "Stop talking here, let's go to the karaoke room over there and have some fun..."

However, Hibiki Eri interrupted Usui Ritsuko and said, "Mr. Saku, please take us to see the room. Please also take us to see the open-air bath at the villa!"

"Yes, sure. This way please!"

Hoshi Saku enthusiastically led Kisaki Eri and her group.

Suddenly, a gleam of light flashed in Ritsuko Usui's eyes.

Although Mao Lilan wanted to stay in the same room with Lin Xiao, she naturally couldn't succeed under the nose of Kisaragi.

There was no way that Eri Kisaki would allow Ran Mouri and Lin Xiao to engage in a war of words right under her nose.

So, Mao Li Ran and Kisaki Eri were in the same room, and Lin Xiao and Edogawa Conan were in the same room.

After putting away their luggage, everyone visited the open-air hot spring.
