I am in Mihua, and the ladies all like me

The thermos was empty and she just drank the last bit of hot water.

"Oh, there's no water.

"Then I'll go down and buy two cups of fruit tea. It's right next to us anyway."

Serabelle said as she was about to stand up.

Fei Yingli thought about it and didn't stop him. She stood up and tiptoed, and pecked the boy lightly on the cheek.

"Be careful on the road and come back soon."

"Well, I'll do it as soon as possible."

Serabelle put on her clothes and went out.

After the boy left, the office suddenly became quiet. Alone, Kisaki Eri stroked her belly, looked left and right, and finally her eyes fell on the gift box on the table.

She pressed her still hot cheeks with her palms, then walked forward and picked up the gift box.

Well, I'll take this opportunity to try it on and give Bell a surprise when he comes back.

Thinking of this, Kisaki Eri unpacked the box bit by bit, solemnly took out the kimono wrapped in the plastic bag, and began to put it on.

The kimono is quite complicated to put on, and it took Kisaki Eri five minutes to put it on roughly.

At this moment, the wind chimes hanging on the door outside the office began to ring.

Could it be that Bell is back?

Kisara was slightly startled and quickly went to the office door, opened it and looked outside.

But the person who appeared at the door was not Bell, but her biological daughter Xiaolan, who seemed to be holding a gift in her hand.

"……orchid?"

"Mom! That's great. I was wondering if you would have gotten off work by now!"

Seeing that her mother was still in the office, Xiaolan realized that she had not missed the opportunity and walked in quickly.

But when she changed her angle and caught a glimpse of her mother's clothes through the crack in the door, she was stunned for a moment.

"Mom, are you wearing... a kimono?"

Chapter 455: Eri Kisaki is being checked by her daughter

"Ah...this is..."

Kisaki Eri could never have imagined that such an unexpected situation would occur.

She just wanted to wait for Serabel to come back and give him a surprise, but unexpectedly, Serabel hadn't come back yet and Xiaolan came first.

No phone call, no text message, no prior notice, it came without warning like a surprise inspection.

What a coincidence that was, she herself was wearing the kimono given by the former.

To be honest, if possible, Kisaki Eri really wanted to find a crack to crawl into.

But obviously, this is unrealistic.

"Uh, Lan, why did you come here so suddenly? You didn't even call mom..."

Considering that it was not a good idea to remain in this stalemate, Kisaki Eri forced herself to start moving and change the topic.

"Of course I brought a gift~"

Xiaolan raised the gift box in her hand and said.

"I went to Osaka and Kyoto with Conan Sera-kun and Sera-kun a few days ago, and I brought back some local snacks."

Oh, that’s right.

Kisaki Eri suddenly realized.

It is true that Xiaolan told her about this matter, but at that time she had been busy preparing for the cases that went to court yesterday and the day before yesterday. She just casually made a note of it and didn't think much about it. Unexpectedly, it laid the groundwork for this.

Xiaolan continued, "Actually, I wanted to bring this here yesterday, but my dad solved a big case in Kyoto before, so he was asked to go to the Nichiuri TV headquarters for an interview yesterday morning. Then he took another commission in the afternoon, which was not completed until this morning. In addition, it rained during the day, so it was not until the evening..."

"Wait a minute, why did it end only this morning?"

Before Xiaolan finished her words, Kisaki Eri, who had only half of her body sticking out of the office door, frowned, opened the door and walked out.

The unicorn girl was stunned. "Well, that's because the client said that there is always someone outside her door ringing her doorbell as a prank every morning. It would be too troublesome to rush over early in the morning, so I stayed at the client's house at night..."

"That's not what I'm talking about!" Kisaki Eri seemed a little angry, "I'm talking about why that guy Maori Kogoro has to take you and Conan with him to work. Can't he complete the work on his own?"

"This... is mainly because the client is a pretty female host, and I'm a little worried..."

Xiaolan found herself unable to continue talking. She scratched the corner of her mouth with a little embarrassment and changed the subject rather stiffly.

"Anyway, Dad finally solved the case perfectly!"

"Let's put things in perspective. These are two different things." Hibiki Eri did not accept her daughter's attempt to smooth things over. "No matter how capable he is and how good he is at solving cases, he shouldn't take you and Conan with him. You are still growing up. How can you follow him, a middle-aged man in his prime, and work hard everywhere? I won't allow that next time. Do you understand?"

"I know~"

Xiaolan, who had originally wanted to say a few good words in front of her mother about her father's successful case-solving to see if it could help promote their remarriage, could only shrink her neck slightly and stick out her tongue timidly when she saw this, and then changed the subject to another thing she was concerned about.

"…So, what's up with the kimono you're wearing, mom?"

"Uh?"

This time, Kisaki Eri, who thought she had been fooled, was stunned for a moment, thinking that her daughter had indeed grown up and was not as easy to fool as when she was a child.

But having said that, it would be somewhat suspicious to evade the question any further.

"It was...given to me by a friend."

friend?

The pointed horns on Xiaolan's head twitched slightly, as if a cheating radar had been activated.

"Which friend?"

"Well... even if I tell you, Lan, you still don't recognize him."

Kisaki Eri was helpless, and her niece is best known to her mother. She was well aware of how stubborn and sensitive her daughter was in this regard. If she continued to put it off, Xiaolan would definitely get to the bottom of it. Even if she didn't know her, she would force her to tell her name.

Her mind raced as she quickly thought of what to say.

"I can't say we're friends, but we had business dealings in the past. He knows someone who specializes in making kimonos, so he gave me one to thank me... Lan, come in and see, there's not even any packaging, it was sent directly from the factory."

As she said this, Kisaki Eri was about to take her daughter to her office and gestured for her to look at the unwrapped gift paper on the desk.

However, as soon as Xiaolan entered the office, she stopped, raised her face, closed her eyes and sniffed softly.

"Why do I feel like there's a strange smell here, mom?"

"This..."

Kisaki Eri's eyebrows jumped and she choked again.

It was normal to have some smell in her mouth. After all, it had been less than a quarter of an hour since the end of her fight with Serabelle, and the air conditioners in the building were all on in the middle of winter.

The lack of ventilation and the high indoor temperature made the smell, which had not yet dissipated, even more obvious.

"I guess it's something Ms. Kuriyama ate in the office before."

Kisara felt a little guilty.

"The main reason is that I was away for the past two days. She helped to handle all the big and small matters in the office. I guess she was so busy that she could only eat while working in the office. And Lan, you also know that my mother's place uses air conditioning all year round, and the ventilation is not very good."

"That's it."

Thinking that this explanation seemed reasonable, Xiaolan nodded in agreement.

But as soon as she lowered her head, a pair of black lace panties that had fallen to the ground in front of the desk and were rolled up on the ground suddenly came into her sight.

Moreover, looking upwards, one can see the faint outline of the corresponding edge of the desk left by the buttocks sitting on it.

"Wait a minute, is this your underwear, mommy..."

Xiaolan bent down to pick it up, but Kisaki Eri grabbed it away from her and put it into the drawer of the desk and closed it in the blink of an eye.

The female lawyer laughed dryly twice.

"This must have fallen to the ground when I was changing clothes."

"Why do you have to take off your underwear when changing clothes..."

Xiaolan gave him a suspicious look.

Kisaki Eri coughed lightly and said, "In fact, you don't wear underwear under a traditional kimono. Besides, Ms. Kuriyama is off work now, and I'm the only one in the office. I don't have to worry about being seen even if I change clothes in the office."

"That's right."

After thinking about it, Xiaolan felt relieved and turned her attention to the gift box that she had opened while doing work.

The moment their eyes met, the unicorn girl felt an inexplicable familiarity in her heart.

It was as if...she seemed to have seen this gift box somewhere recently.

But where is it?

Xiaolan couldn't be sure. This was just like what Hibiki Eri described, the wrapping paper that could be seen in roadside stationery stores. It was not very unique and could even be said to be the same. At most, it looked okay.

But she just felt that it looked familiar. Why?

Just when Xiaolan's cheating radar was about to enter overclocking mode, the bell outside the office rang again, and then the office door was pushed open, and Serabell walked in with two cups of fruit tea in her hands.

Caught off guard, Serabelle stopped immediately when she saw Xiaolan at the desk.

At this time, the unicorn girl also turned her head and looked over following the sound.

Their eyes met, and the boy raised the plastic bag containing fruit tea in his hand.

"When I was queuing up to buy fruit tea nearby just now, I saw you carrying something downstairs. I thought your aunt might still be here, so I brought a cup of fruit tea for each of you."

Chapter 456 Aunt's Secret

"Ah no thanks, I don't need it, I'm not thirsty..."

Xiaolan is a kind girl. When someone offers something as a gift, her first reaction is always to thank them and decline it politely, rather than accepting it with a clear conscience.

"And if it's just two cups, how about yours, Sera-kun?"

"Of course I drank mine on the way."

Serabelle shrugged lightly, speaking in a serious manner.

"That's how much is this cup? I finished it in a few sips walking over from the milk tea shop. I just threw away the trash and came back up...Besides, I bought it, and you drank it. You can't let me drink two cups by myself, that would make me too full."

"Um, okay."

After hearing the boy say this, Xiaolan reluctantly felt relieved and took it.

The unicorn girl pierced the lid of the cup with a plastic straw, took a sip and asked vaguely.

"What about Sera-san? Didn't he come along?"

"No, she's a lazy cat. She's probably lying on the sofa at home playing with her phone right now."

"Oh……"

Xiaolan accepted this statement very easily.

Although Sera-san has excellent physical fitness, when he is at school, especially after lunch in the afternoon, he often lies on a seat by the window where the sun shines, with a cat-like face, and sleeps. Just looking at him from a distance makes him look super happy.

Then she turned to her mother.

"Mom, do you still have to work overtime today?"

Kisaki Eri was also drinking fruit tea. When she heard her daughter's words, she put down the cup.

"No, I don't have to work overtime today. In fact, it's okay for me to go home directly today, but after all, I haven't been in the office for two days, so I have to sort out the documents of the past two days."

"Then let me help with the cleaning!"

Xiaolan immediately said impatiently.

She said this mainly for Serabelle to hear. Although she really had no ill intentions, Xiaolan sincerely hoped that the latter could leave first if possible.

After all, my mother is still naked under her kimono. It's okay for me as a daughter, but it would still be a bit strange if there were other opposite sex present.

"Ah, no, no, anyway, even if we don't clean today, we'll have to do a routine cleaning tomorrow. Besides, it's late today and Mom is a little tired, so let's talk about cleaning tomorrow."
