"What's wrong, Mom?"

"Ah, nothing, Lan. I just want to tell you that Mom is going upstairs to chat with Aunt Yukiko for a while. She might be back a little late like yesterday. You should go to bed when the time comes. Be careful not to stay up late, okay?"

"Yeah, I know."

Seeing her daughter nod obediently in agreement, Hibiki Eri nodded with satisfaction, waved goodbye, and turned towards the elevator hall.

Xiaolan looked at her mother's leaving back from the door and yawned silently.

Although he said he was going to chat with Aunt Yukiko, considering what happened this morning, I was probably going to do that kind of thing with Aunt Yukiko and Sera-kun if he went there now, so he said he would be back later.

No, it should be back a little later.

That means it's definitely impossible for me to be with Sera-kun tonight.

Well~ But she is her mother's good daughter after all. It's not okay for her not to cooperate with her mother on such matters. Besides, what happened that night can be dealt with if she just bear with it a little.

There is still a long way to go~

……

The view returned to the upstairs, and after a while, Eri Kisaki took the spare room card and arrived at the door of Yukiko and Serabel's room.

Drop~

Using the room card to open the door, Hibiki Eri walked straight in.

Serabel and Yukiko's shoes were placed undisguisedly on the shoe rack at the entrance, but they were not seen in the bedroom.

The only sound that could be heard was the sound of water splashing from inside the bathroom door.

Wow, has it started yet?

Kisaki Eri understood instantly.

She made no effort to hide the fact that she was there, and gently pressed the bathroom door handle and pushed it open.

In the bathroom, warm bath water splashed out of the bathtub and spread all over the nearby ground, while the two people hugging each other in the bathtub seemed to have entered the mood.

Hearing the sound of the door opening behind her, Yukiko, who could no longer control her speech and could not even speak coherently, turned around with a dazed look.

"Ying, Yingli..."

"Yukiko."

Kisaki Eri licked her lips, her breathing became rapid due to excitement, and she raised her hand to unbutton a button on her collar.

"Didn't we agree that you can't eat alone secretly~"

Chapter 685: Conan is still investigating the case

The bright moon rises over the sea, and people all over the world share this moment.

As night fell and the moon was high in the sky, in the islander village on the other side of Shenhai Island, the tourism promotion center, which was supposed to close at 5 pm as usual, was still brightly lit.

Today is a rare overtime day.

In the reception area of ​​the lobby of the Island Tourism Promotion Center, five people sat opposite each other on sofas on both sides of a coffee table.

They are not strangers. If Serabelle were here, she would definitely recognize them at a glance.

Two of the five people sitting on one side were the bounty hunters who were attacked by sharks in the waters near Shenhai Island yesterday afternoon.

On the other side was Inspector Megure, who had just arrived at Kamishima Island by ferry with his subordinate Takagi Sato at 6 o'clock this afternoon, Conan who was sitting next to him, and... at the very edge was Kogoro Mouri, who was reeking of alcohol, had a dazed look on his face, and was half asleep and half awake.

"Nice to meet you. I'm Megure from the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department. We have some details on the shark attack that happened yesterday afternoon that we would like to confirm with you."

Inspector Megure's voice was very serious, and his eyes were staring at the two people opposite him from under the brim of his brown round hat. The oppressive feeling of a veteran detective that suddenly rose from him made Takagi Sato, who was standing next to the sofa, swallow his saliva involuntarily.

To be honest, this is the first time they have seen Inspector Megure like this.

Of course, this doesn’t mean that Inspector Megure is not serious about handling cases on a daily basis. It’s just that this time is different from the past. If I have to say, it feels like Inspector Megure himself is a little... nervous?

However, this is inevitable. After all, all the prisoners who have been interrogated in the past, no matter whether they have good or poor psychological quality, will be more or less shaken when facing the police officers across a table.

But these two were different. Not only were they not shaken at all, they even had the leisure to light a cigarette or something. There was not the slightest stiffness in the movement of their wrists when they struck a match.

In other words, the other side did not take the police seriously at all.

"Confirm? What else is there to confirm?"

One of them, a taller and stronger dark-skinned man with long curly hair wrapped in a turban, sneered when he heard this.

"I have already said everything I need to say. We are the victims. It was the shark that attacked us. Do you think we can control the shark?"

"Then how do you explain the fish blood hidden in the push-type seal bag in the diving suit's interlayer?" Inspector Megure asked back.

"……what?"

When he heard about the fish blood being packed in a plastic bag, the burly man in the turban was visibly stunned.

Inspector Megure glanced at him without saying anything. He just took out a piece of fax paper from his clothes, spread it out, put it on the coffee table and pushed it over.

"Look, this is the diving suit that your companion took off after he died. See those bloody plastic pieces where the shark bit you? The test results showed fish blood, right, Maori?"

After saying this, Inspector Megure turned his head to the right and looked at Kogoro Mouri for confirmation.

However, Kogoro Mori, who was always keen on taking credit in the past, was not enthusiastic this time. After hearing someone calling his name, he slowly turned his head two or three seconds later, revealing a drunken face like a monkey's butt, and let out a very unpleasant burp.

"Yes, that's right, Inspector... Hiccup~"

Mumu Police Department "..."

I feel like it’s better not to ask this guy.

At this time, the two people sitting opposite each other exchanged glances. Although they were no longer laughing like before, they still remained calm without any panic and pushed the printed paper back with their backhands.

"Well, we don't know about this kind of thing, but since we have found these clues, it means that someone on this island wants to harm us. I would like to trouble the police officers to help find the murderer~"

"do not know?"

Inspector Megure raised his voice slightly.

"Before this, I had already gone to the only diving equipment store on the island to ask. You brought all the equipment you used with you. How could you not know what it was?"

"It's hard to say, Inspector." The burly man with the turban smiled. "Although we bring our own equipment, we can't always carry it with us, so we keep it in the store over there. So the staff of the store over there are the most suspicious, right?"

"Besides, the three of us are acting together. If we summon the shark, not only will the one who died be in danger, but the two of us who are left will also be in danger. Why should we take such a risk and harm our own people?"

"This one……"

His logic was refuted, and Inspector Megure was speechless for a moment.

Conan next to him couldn't get a word in. On the one hand, his Stand user was currently sealed by alcohol, and on the other hand, what the two men said was indeed true.

But what should I do? I can tell at a glance that there is something wrong with these two people. What should I do?

……

While the Sherlock Holmes of the Heisei era was still staying up late to solve the case, at the same time, the double battle between Princess Teitan and the others in the hotel was gradually reaching its peak.

In the king-size bed room, the light in the bathroom was still on, and the tile floor was covered with splashes of bath water from the violent collision, while the water surface in the bathtub had returned to calm.

The sound of fierce fighting came from the direction of the bedroom.

"Eri, listen carefully... I will never lose to you in this matter. Bell... Bell must be mine!"

The older girl's intermittent voice was filled with a firm will that seemed to be decisive.

In contrast, the female lawyer's tone was equally aggressive.

"Really? Yukiko, you're so bold... We, um! We've compared ourselves so many times since we were students? From elementary school to middle school to high school... It seems like we're always being compared, but there's never been a winner."

"Remember the beauty pageant held by Teitan High School that year? We also tied with the same number of votes in the end."

"Yes, but this situation will only last until today."

Yukiko's figure kept rising and falling, and her long light brown curly hair drew wavy arcs behind her like silk.

At this point she couldn't even speak coherently, but she still tried her best to show a sarcastic smile.

"Speaking of which, Eri, can you still hold on? For a liberal arts girl like you who sits in the office every day and doesn't exercise, endurance is always a shortcoming..."

"That's just what you think, Yukiko..."

Although Hibiki Eri's body did not move up and down, she was constantly moving back and forth below her navel. The fine beads of sweat on the skin at her collarbone reflected a hazy luster under the light.

"On the contrary, Yukiko, although you usually say to others that you exercise and keep in shape, but in private you are just a dry woman. If anyone is going to give up, you will be the first one to give up!"

"Oh? Then let's have a showdown... I'm not like you. Bell often comes to help me train my endurance..."

"Then let's give it a try. I will definitely be the winner tonight!"

"not mine!"

Chapter 686 They All Drank Too Much

From the bright moon hanging high in the sky to the moon setting in the west, from the bathroom to the bedroom, then to the balcony and then back to the bedroom, and finally into the bathroom again.

It took a full four hours, and by the time the room returned to silence, it was already past eleven o'clock in the evening.

The large amount of water stains that had been splashed onto the floor in the bathroom due to the fierce battle had completely evaporated under the scorching light of the bathroom heater, and the clear water in the bathtub was rippling.

This is the water that Serabelle drained and then added again.

In the bathtub, Eri Kisaki and Yukiko surrounded Serabelle in the middle, one on each side.

Because it is a double bed room, and considering that most of the audience are couples in love and have certain online needs for bathing, the bathtub is also made larger than that of a single room.

In addition, Kisaki Eri and Yukiko are both slim types, so the three of them don't seem too crowded together.

"Ha...ha~"

The panting sounds came one after another, and at this time Yukiko was completely exhausted.

She barely had the strength to straighten her neck, so she could only turn sideways and rest half of her hot face on the boy's shoulder, her chest rising and falling to calm her breathing.

On the other side, Kisaki Eri was not much better. In fact, because her physical fitness was not as good as Yukiko, she looked even more embarrassed than the latter. Her sea-blue eyes were slightly narrowed, and they were full of watery colors.

"What do you think, Eri...is it time to just admit defeat?"

Yukiko raised the corner of her mouth slightly, half of her eyes were fixed on the boy's solid chest, looking at her childhood friend on the other side who was also looking at her, looking like the ultimate winner.

In fact, Kisaki Eri was almost unable to hold on at this moment. If it weren't for her competitive spirit, she would have been so tired that she really wanted to fall asleep in the bathtub. However, she still forced herself to retort in a slightly hoarse voice.

"Give up? Ahem... Yukiko, you really have the nerve to say that..."

"Is not it?"

The older girl curled her lips in dissatisfaction.

"I managed to hold on a little longer than you, Eri, and I lost clearly~"

"It's the same number of times, Yukiko, do you think I didn't count..."

Kisaki Eri raised her head slightly and looked at Serabelle above. She raised one hand out of the water and placed it on the boy's chest, saying with some concern.

"And Bell, how do you feel now? Are you tired?"

"I'm fine."

Seeing that the topic was about herself, Serabelle moved her wrists that were resting on the sides of the bathtub.

"My hands are still a little sore."

"that is……"

When this was mentioned, the two wives couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.

Although the two of them had been taking turns over the past four hours, just like playing arcade games as a kid and taking over when one person died, it was essentially a little different.

When one person is operating an arcade game, the others can only watch quietly. However, Yukiko and Eri Kisaki, who have started the shopping mode, will not just stand there and watch.

So much so that Serabelle's hands had been working non-stop for the past four hours.

"Oh yeah, so who wins in the end?"

After recovering some strength, Yukiko moved closer to the boy, put her arms around his waist and asked.

What she said just now, that she persisted one more time than Kisaki Eri, was completely a lie to Kisaki Eri. In such an intense battle, she had no time to count the exact number of times.

Since Eri Kisaki doesn't admit it, then only Serabelle can say it herself.

However, Serabelle answered almost without thinking.
