ding dong~

Hearing the message alert sound from the phone on the bedside table next to her, she gently patted the boy on the back.

"Hmm...wait a minute, it seems someone sent me a message, maybe it was from my mom, let me take a look first...otherwise she might call me directly."

"Oh."

Serabelle paused.

Xiaolan raised her head and looked upwards, stretching out her right hand and trying to take the phone according to the position she remembered.

But because she had no strength in her hands and her posture was tricky, Xiaolan slipped after trying several times.

In the end, it was Serabel who helped take it down.

"Give."

"Um……"

This time, Xiaolan finally succeeded in grabbing the phone.

However, she only turned on the screen and looked at it for a second before putting the phone back and patting Serabelle's shoulder again.

"It's okay, let's continue."

"So what happened?"

Serabelle didn't see the content on the phone, so she didn't know what was going on.

"nothing."

Xiaolan pursed her lips and smiled sweetly, and gently hooked the hair on her forehead that was a little sticky due to sweat with her little finger.

"Just now Conan... that is, Kudo sent me a message asking me if I was asleep. I guess he wanted to come and see me. I didn't reply to him, so he would think I was asleep."

"Is this so?"

"Yeah, so it's okay, go ahead."

"Oh."

Scene switch, inside the elevator.

Four gazes and two pairs of eyes converged on the small screen of the mobile phone. The atmosphere in the not-so-spacious space was very quiet.

After waiting for a while, Hattori Heiji broke the silence first.

"It seems she hasn't replied yet."

"Ah."

Conan responded, forced himself to swallow the breath that was stuck in his throat, and put away his phone with a calm expression.

"Forget it, he's probably asleep already."

"should be."

Hattori Heiji's brain was working at full speed, trying to think of what to say to liven up the atmosphere.

But at this moment, his own phone rang.

"Uh, why are you calling at this time..."

Hattori Heiji took out his cell phone and took a look at it, and couldn't help but stare blankly.

But I still answered the call honestly.

"Hello, mom?"

"Ah Ping-chan, are you still awake at this hour?"

The voice coming from the other end of the line was a beautiful woman speaking with a standard Osaka accent.

"Auntie, could you please stop saying such nonsense?" Hattori Heiji was helpless by his dear mother. "Excuse me, how can I answer your call if I fall asleep?"

However, the beautiful woman didn't care at all: "Well, don't worry about it. Compared to this Ping-chan, have you returned to the hotel now?"

"Yes, I'm going back to my room to sleep now."

"Oh, that's good. Which hotel did you stay in? You didn't stay in one of those irregular hotels, did you?"

"No, no, it's the one next to the Nichimei TV building that was bombed today!"

Hattori Heiji's patience was being exhausted, mainly because his mother would ask him this every time he went out, for fear that he would lose control and go to those informal small hotels with high heels on their advertising signs.

But how is it possible? Just thinking about it, you know it's impossible!

That violent woman He Ye is still here. If he dares to stay in that kind of hotel today, he should be admitted to the hospital tomorrow!

"Okay, okay, that's it. Mom, are you home yet?"

Hattori Heiji tried to hang up the phone quickly.

"Well, it's already here."

At the front desk in the hotel lobby downstairs, a beautiful woman in kimono held a mobile phone in one hand and pushed the completed check-in form to the receptionist with the other hand.

"That's it then, goodnight Ping-chan."

Chapter 569 Zhenchun: Brother, you’ve come to the wrong place!

Perhaps it was because he didn't have too many distracting thoughts and unnecessary behaviors before going to bed, which led to him falling asleep naturally. On his first night in Kyoto, Sera Masumi slept very comfortably and did not feel any sense of acclimatization at all.

And because she went to bed very early last night, when she woke up the next morning, although she was well rested and refreshed, it was only 6:30 in the morning.

Of course, this time is also exaggerated. You know, she fell asleep around six o'clock last night, which is equivalent to sleeping for twelve hours or more.

As for how she did it, it all started from the time before she came to Kyoto, when she stayed up all night at home and entertained herself by listening to music in the corner of the room. I won't go into details here.

"Hmm~"

Inside the room, Sera Masumi, who had just woken up, stretched his arms and murmured vaguely.

She opened her eyes hazily and looked to the side. In the morning light that shone through the curtains into the room from the window, Serabelle was lying quietly beside her, lying on her side with her eyes closed, apparently still asleep.

Not awake yet...

Masumi Sera thought for a moment, then reached down and touched her belly with one hand.

Very good, less pressure on the bladder.

Maybe it was because she didn't drink much water before going to bed last night, and the body's activity was reduced during sleep at night, so she really had no need to go to the toilet now.

In that case, then stay with me for a while~

Thinking of this, Masumi Sera tentatively moved to the side of Serabelle, then carefully grabbed the latter's upper arm and lifted it up to open the "passage", and then he changed into a comfortable position and crawled in like a small animal returning to its nest.

Well, that's great.

After making sure that her posture was adjusted, Sera Masumi lowered the boy's arm back down and placed it around her waist.

It feels like being hugged.

However, just as the tiger-toothed girl closed her eyes and prepared to enjoy a nap, Serabelle, who was still asleep behind her, suddenly moved.

The hand that was originally loosely placed on her waist moved down and tightened, while the other arm passed through her armpit and secured her chest.

For Masumi Sera, it was like being hugged tightly all of a sudden. The extremely close distance was instantly reduced to zero, the back was pressed against the chest, and the breath that should have been blowing gently on the back of the neck actually felt faintly hot.

And the worst thing is not just that.

“Eh hey hey? Wait a minute, bro, you’ve gone the wrong way. That’s…!”

"orchid……"

Serabelle, who was half asleep and half awake, shouted incoherently.

Huh?

Masumi Sera, who was in the steam, was stunned for a moment.

She didn’t actually hear clearly what Serabelle said, but it seemed, probably, maybe she called out... Lan?

"……What are you doing."

Before Sera Masumi could figure it out, Serabell, who was feeling confused and as if something was wrong, finally woke up completely. Looking at the red-faced and fierce-looking tiger-toothed girl in front of her, a buffer bar popped up faintly above her head, which had not yet completed the boot-up loading.

"What do you mean what am I doing..."

Seeing him acting as if it had nothing to do with him, Masumi Sera became extremely angry.

"It's all your fault, brother. You came up to me and hugged me while I was half asleep and half awake, and you wanted to just..."

She paused here with her cheeks slightly red, and her eyes unconsciously glanced away.

"Although I don't mind, at least do some preparation. I've heard people say it would be painful if you go in directly."

"……Um?"

The buffer strip on Serabelle's head got stuck.

What the hell is this girl talking about?

"Forget it, forget it, let's not talk about this anymore!"

As Sera Masumi said this, she turned over and pressed Serabelle flat on the bed with her backhand. Then she raised her long legs and jumped up to sit on the latter's waist. She supported herself on the bed with her hands and placed them on both sides of the boy's shoulders, looking down at him and speaking excitedly.

"Now that you're awake, get up. I didn't take a shower yesterday. Brother, let me tell you, the bathtub in the hotel bathroom here is awesome..."

"I know."

Said Serabelle.

Sera Masumi's voice got stuck: "...Brother, how did you know?"

"Because I took a shower yesterday."

A reasonable answer.

"is it?"

Shi Meiliang Zhenchun was a little suspicious.

"But I didn't seem to hear you taking a shower yesterday, brother. Was I sleeping too soundly?"

"It's possible."

After she finished speaking, Serabelle sat up all of a sudden using only the strength of her waist and abdomen.

"Oh!"

Sera Masumi, who was originally sitting on his waist, screamed, and in order to prevent herself from being knocked over, she subconsciously stretched out her arms and hugged the boy's neck. Then, she was supported by the two legs and got off the bed and ran straight to the bathroom.

After a while, the sound of water running in the bathroom tub was heard, mixed with some rhythmic water sounds.

……

Conan and others didn't knock on the door until around 8:30.

To be honest, Serabelle didn't really understand this behavior.

If everyone goes out to play together, it is normal for them to knock on doors and wake them up in the morning. After all, everyone's living habits are different, and it is impossible to guarantee that everyone has the same schedule.

Besides, since we are out to play together, it would be a bit unreasonable if we are forced to play separately because of different schedules.

But the problem is that their trip to Kyoto this time obviously deviated from the track of normal tourism, with threatening letters and explosions.

Besides, didn’t Conan, Hattori and Heiji, you two go out to investigate a case together last night? Why do you have to drag him along today... Are you thinking of playing games together?

But there is no way.

It was not until there were ten knocks on the door that Serabelle was forced to go to the door and open it.

As expected, the people seen in the corridor outside were Conan, Hattori Heiji, and Kazuha, who was yawning and had dark circles under her eyes.

"Wow, you're finally awake. It looks like you slept well last night?"

Hattori Heiji was still as carefree as ever. When he saw Serabell appear behind the door, he waved.

"Let's go downstairs for breakfast."

"……What about the rest?"

Serabelle asked, looking around.

"Uncle Maori is still sleeping."
