As she spoke, Serabelle yawned again.

In fact, given his physical condition, not sleeping for one night wouldn't have any impact, but if he fell asleep and was woken up early in the morning, that would be another matter.

"Then think of something to cheer you up, like the tourism promotional video on the cabin TV just now that mentioned the treasure of Anne Bonny and Mary Reed?"

Yukiko rubbed her cheek against his.

"By the way, Bell, do you know anything about their story?"

Serabelle continued to yawn: "Unfortunately not. All my knowledge of pirates comes from the only pirate movie I've ever seen, Pirates of the Caribbean. At that time, Zhenchun dragged me to watch it, and..."

The conversation ended there, causing a certain older girl to tilt her head in curiosity.

"And? And what?"

"without……"

Serabelle seemed reluctant to talk more.

But Yukiko, whose curiosity was aroused, was not going to let it go. She pinched the boy's cheek like a spoiled child and urged him on.

"Just say it, there's nothing wrong with it, and no one else will hear it."

"Yes--"

Serabelle hesitated.

"We had watched several Pirates of the Caribbean movies that had been made, and Zhenchun felt that she still wanted more, so she searched for other pirate movies, and then she found one called Pirates of the Caribbean. At first we thought it was a spin-off movie, and then..."

"Okay, okay, no need to say more, I understand, I understand."

Before Serabelle could finish her words, Yukiko understood immediately and gestured that there was no need for further explanation.

……

A moment later, the passenger ship docked.

The area of ​​Shenhai Island itself is not large, and even with the involvement of consortium capital it is difficult to build a prosperous commercial street, so after getting off the ship and onto the dock, you will see a magnificent hotel right in front of you.

In fact, the island originally operated a tourism industry, but because there were not many people coming, there were only small-scale homestays.

However, the quality of homestays varies greatly. If you have sufficient funds, it is better to choose a large hotel with guaranteed quality instead of gambling on the sanitary environment.

So before coming, Serabelle had already booked a room in advance and even paid for it. A king-size bed room was just right for two people, so now she just had to go directly to the front desk to get the key.

But just as Yukiko and Serabel stepped into the hotel arm in arm, at the front desk where they were about to go, two figures that were so familiar that they couldn't be more familiar came into view.

It turned out to be Kisaki Eri and Xiaolan who were also checking in.

???

Yukiko's steps froze for a moment.

How is that possible? I haven't seen it on the cruise ship before.

and……

Before Yukiko could think of a reasonable explanation for the sudden situation, the unicorn girl at the front desk seemed to sense the gaze behind her, turned her head and looked back, then a surprised smile broke out on her face.

"Huh? Aunt Yukiko and Sera-kun? Why are you here too?"

"I I I I..."

Yukiko let go of Serabel's arm as if she had been electrocuted, and for a moment she couldn't even speak.

As the saying goes, the speaker may not mean it but the listener may take it seriously. Now the speaker also has it in mind, and if it falls into the listener's ears, it will be an even bigger problem.

To Yukiko, Xiaolan's words sounded like she was asking herself why she came here to travel alone with Serabelle.

What could she say?

You can't just openly admit that Serabelle was the person you cheated with, and now the two of them are on their honeymoon!

Then does she still want to save her face and status as an elder?

At the critical moment, Kisaki Eri turned around and saw her old classmate and finally spoke to save the situation with a smile.

"Ah Yukiko you're finally here, I was wondering when you would come over."

"Eh?"

Upon hearing this, Yukiko became even more confused.

What do you mean she's finally here? Does that mean Yingli knew she would come?

But that's impossible. Why would Yingli know that?

Oh, that’s not right… It seems that Yingli did send her a message a few days ago saying that she planned to take Xiaolan out for a trip in the next two days, and asked her if she had any plans. But she didn’t give a clear answer at that time, just said that she would consider it.

So what the hell is going on here?

Before the words were finished, another familiar voice sounded from the other side of the long hotel reception desk.

"What did you say? There is no reservation record?! Impossible! Check again, I definitely have a reservation! Just use my name, the great detective Maori Kogoro!"

"..."

"..."

Now, not to mention Yukiko, even the smile on Kisaki Eri's face froze.

Chapter 662: Everything is under Xiaolan's control

Maybe it was fate, or maybe it was luck, but now things suddenly became abstract.

At this moment, not to mention Yukiko, even Eri Kisaki's mentality has shown some signs of collapse.

According to Yukiko's idea, she asked Professor Agasa to take Conan and his school friends out to relax, under the pretext of alleviating the psychological trauma caused by his father's murder. Then she would take advantage of this free time to go on a honeymoon trip with Serabelle.

As a result, the two groups bumped into each other at the same place, and her beloved son and a few friends were with them.

No, it should be three groups, because there are also Kisaki Eri and Xiaolan.

It’s the same question as before, how should she explain this?

As for Eri Kisaki, she never expected to run into Kogoro Mouri at this time.

Although from the perspective of personal emotions and marital status, no matter who she remarries now, it has nothing to do with Maori Kogoro, but the problem is that the latter's mouth... is really a bit annoying.

After all, they are former couple who have known each other since their school days, and Kisaki Eri knows Kogoro Mouri's loudmouthed personality very well.

Especially after this guy gets drunk, he can't control his mouth at all. He says everything without restraint and even exaggerates things. He can even say something black even if it's white.

If such a character happened to an ordinary unknown person, he would mess up the neighborhood relations, not to mention that this guy is now a great detective.

Although it is unclear how this guy suddenly got lucky and became a great detective from a down-and-out detective, as the saying goes, what is more terrifying than having no talent and no morals is having talent but no morals.

If this guy were to keep a grudge against her and say something bad during an interview, it would have a serious negative impact on her career as a lawyer.

This is something that Hibari would never allow.

"Hiss... Fu~"

Eri Kisaki took deep breaths and tried to force her mind to calm down, but when she looked at Yukiko who had a dazed look on her face next to Serabelle, she realized that her best friend was probably out of her mind.

Xiaolan, who was standing by, saw all of this and couldn't help but curl the corners of her mouth with a hint of helplessness.

It seems that it's a good thing that I came along, because right from the start, I need her help to smooth things over.

Thinking of this, Xiaolan turned her head and looked in the direction where Mouri Kogoro's voice came from. As expected, what came into view was Mouri Kogoro, who was staring at the receptionist at the counter, and followed by Professor Agasa, Conan and the three little guys from the Junior Detective League.

Huh?

Children's senses are always sharper than adults. Xiaolan had just turned over when Ayumi on the other side seemed to have noticed something. She turned her head to look over here and then exclaimed in surprise.

"Sister Xiaolan? And Brother Sera and... uh..."

She only knew Serabel and Xiaolan, and was not very familiar with Yukiko and Kisaki Eri, and she was a little confused about their names.

But this was enough to attract Conan's attention.

When Conan heard Xiaolan's name, he seemed indifferent to the things around him in the last second, but suddenly came back to his senses from his thoughts. He turned his head and looked in the direction where Ayumi was looking. The figures of four people standing together were reflected in his pupils.

Well……?

In just a split second, Conan's body moved before his brain could react. He quickly moved his short legs across half the hall and came to Serabelle, looking up in surprise.

"Why are Xiaolan, Aunt Eri, and old... uh, Yukiko... sister here, and even Sera-niang is here too?"

This was a complicated name change.

Serabelle covered her mouth and yawned to hide her eyes from the narrowing that she could not help but do.

After all, his identity is still Conan, and calling her "Mom" directly would be exposed, and calling her "Auntie" would be severely punished by Yukiko's iron punch, so in the end she became Yukiko's "Sister".

"Uh, how should I put this..."

Meeting Kisaki Eri here had already thrown Yukiko's brain into a mess, and her son's questioning now made her completely confused. She could only barely maintain the most basic language logic so as not to talk nonsense.

However, simply not talking nonsense would not be enough to fool her extremely smart son.

What's even more terrible is that after this operation, everyone in the hall noticed them, including Kogoro Mouri and Dr. Agasa who were not far away.

Therefore, Yukiko.exe did not respond.

Yukiko on this side has completely hung up, and Kisaki Eri on the other side is not much better.

Again, based on her understanding of Kogoro Mori, if she couldn't come up with a reasonable explanation here, this guy would definitely spread the news to everyone in the city.

But what to do?

At this moment, Xiaolan, who was standing beside her, leaned over, supported her knees with her hands, and smiled kindly but a little unfamiliarly.

"I haven't seen you for a long time, little brother Edogawa. I didn't expect to meet you here. This time, my mom and Aunt Yukiko were classmates when they were young, and since I have some free time recently, I asked you to go out and relax together. As for Sera-kun, since you live next door to me, I asked him when I planned the trip before, and after confirming that you were free, I invited you to come along as well."

"Uh...oh."

So that's how it is, Conan thought.

It does make sense. My dad was killed in America a few days ago, so my mom must be feeling depressed, if not grief-stricken, these past few days. It's normal for Aunt Eri, as an old classmate, to show some concern for her.

As for why he didn't take him out for the trip himself but instead asked Dr. Agasa for help, it's probably because he has never been willing to go out and play with his mother since he was a child and he felt it was embarrassing.

Then, looking at this guy Serabelle, yawning and looking bored, you can tell that it is more likely that he was conscripted rather than wanted to come here on his own.

In less than two seconds, Conan sorted out an answer in his mind that he felt "should be correct."

However, Yukiko and Kisaki Eri, who heard the same words, were in a completely different state.

Although what Xiaolan said sounds reasonable and convincing at first glance, if you think about it carefully, it is not the case at all!

Did Eri Kisaki date Yukiko? And she also invited Serabelle along?

Is that how it is?

"Eh? Isn't it?"

Seeing that the two wives behind her showed varying degrees of confusion, Xiaolan tilted her head curiously.

"Uh... yes, it is true."

Kisaki Eri was the first to react. She recalled that she seemed to have said the same thing to her daughter a few days ago, and immediately nodded and agreed without thinking.

Yukiko had no choice at this point. She still couldn't explain why she was here with Serabel. Seeing the stairs, she simply took off her brain and nodded quickly like a chicken pecking at rice.

"Yeah, yeah, that's right, that's it."

Chapter 663: Performing Together

Conan managed to give a rough explanation, but the crisis was not resolved for Yukiko.

Because no one has left the hall so far.

Everyone knows each other, and now they bump into each other here and recognize each other. It is possible that you will wait for me and I will wait for you, and finally everyone will get the room card together and take the elevator upstairs.

But the fatal problem is...she and Serabel booked the same room!

It was even a king-size bed room! The kind with only one king-size bed in the entire room!

Even if she managed to trick Conan now, how would she explain when she wanted to go into the room with Serabelle later? !

Under the pressure of crisis, Yukiko's brain was working at its limit and her amazing wisdom suddenly flashed.

"I'll go see what's going on with Maori-kun and the others."
