"Mmm, so deep..."

"slower."

Serabel supported him.

……

At the same time, Conan returned to the B&B on the island and tossed and turned in the big bunk bed, feeling a little uneasy.

Now he is the only one in the whole homestay. Dr. Agasa has gone out to play with the three little ones.

As for Uncle Maori, no one knew what had stimulated him these past two days. Every day he was either drinking at Gaga or on his way to drink, and he was always in a drunken and violent state.

Like yesterday, I was even helped back by the proprietress of the izakaya in the middle of the night.

Inspector Megure has already brought Matsumoto Mitsuji and Izu Santaro to the small police station on the island.

Previously, they were struggling to conduct an investigation without clear evidence of the two men's crimes. Now, they no longer have to worry about that, as they caught the men red-handed on the spot.

The charge is threatening others with a weapon.

At present, the two brothers, Matsumoto Mitsuji and Izu Santaro, have been put on silver bracelets and detained. Their fingerprints and photos have been recorded and sent to the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department headquarters for comparison.

In addition, the Metropolitan Police Department's helicopter is already on the way, and as long as it is found that these two people have any criminal records, they will be sent to trial immediately.

Normally, Conan should be very concerned about such things, but today he really doesn't have the mood to do so.

Or is it because of... Xiaolan.

To be more precise, it was because Xiaolan had previously refused the gift he gave her in front of the diving equipment store.

Although girls nowadays are much more open-minded than in the last century or even the century before due to changes in the environment and ideas, Conan has every reason to believe, based on the fact that they are childhood sweethearts, that Xiaolan is the kind of good girl who will automatically keep a distance from other opposite sexes once she has a partner.

But the problem now is that the person Xiaolan is keeping her distance from has become... himself.

Even if there is the prerequisite of amnesia, it shouldn't be to that extent at all. It's just a small pendant.

Moreover, if Xiaolan really has a new partner, then the only possible candidate is...

The image of Serabel flashed through Conan's mind, and he didn't dare to think about it anymore.

He believed that Serabelle would not take the initiative to attack Xiaolan, but the circumstances during this period were indeed special.

First, Xiaolan accidentally lost her memory and was taken to live with Aunt Yingli, and from then on she was separated from him.

Then, because Aunt Eri's house was right next to Serabelle's, the two became neighbors.

Considering that Xiaolan's interpersonal relationships are basically reset after she lost her memory, at this time, if there is a relatively outstanding opposite sex around her, let alone whether she will be attracted to her, it is at least impossible for her not to notice her.

Ah——! No! Absolutely not!

Conan held his head in his hands and rolled back and forth on the big bunk bed. The pent-up emotions in his chest made him extremely uncomfortable, but he had no way to vent.

Even if he exploded, it would be useless. It wouldn't help him bring Xiaolan back.

Fortunately, he still has one last trump card...

Forcing himself to calm down, Conan turned over and sat up from the tatami, adjusted the voice changer, took out his cell phone and called Xiaolan.

Speaking of which, he has never called Xiaolan using Kudo Shinichi's voice since she lost her memory. But as long as Xiaolan hears his original voice, her memory will definitely... definitely...

Conan's emotional loss of control made him forget that Xiaolan had previously said she wanted to go diving with Serabelle.

The call was connected within a few seconds, and Conan couldn't wait to speak.

"orchid……"

But the faint sound of rapid breathing coming from the phone blocked the rest of his words in his throat.

And for some reason, it doesn't sound like Xiaolan's.

...Huh? What's going on?

Chapter 692 Hang up the phone and continue

The view returns to the bathroom in Xiaolan's room, where the rhythm of the two people in the bathtub has just come to an end.

Since I couldn't go diving, I had to do other sports instead.

As we all know, diving is an aerobic exercise, so the only thing that can replace diving is also an aerobic exercise... probably running.

"Ha...ha~ Wait a minute, Sera-kun, let me rest for a while..."

In the bathtub, Xiaolan, who was already sweating all over, sat face to face with Serabel and placed her hands on his chest to temporarily stop him from continuing his actions. She then turned sideways and reached out to the trolley against the wall outside the bathtub to grab a glass of cold water from it.

She prepared this before taking a bath.

After all, according to the formula, men usually spend ten minutes bathing, and women spend about the same amount of time if washing their hair is not counted, which means that if two people take turns using a bathtub, it will take about half an hour for them to bathe.

But if two people share a bathtub and take a bath at the same time, not only will the time not be coordinated within fifteen minutes, it will even be extended to more than an hour or even more, completely violating the objective law.

It is well known that taking a bath will cause the body to lose water, so in order to ensure good health, it is very important to replenish water in time during the bathing process.

"Come on, Sera-kun, drink some too..."

She lowered her head and fed the remaining half of the cold water in the cup to Serabel. When Xiaolan stood up, a satisfied smile hung on the corner of her mouth.

Sure enough, this kind of lifestyle is more suitable for her.

Just as she was thinking this, the next second, the cell phone rang in the bathroom without any warning, and the smile on Xiaolan's face instantly disappeared.

That was her cell phone ringtone.

"Wait, there's a phone call. Could it be my mom calling..."

It was almost ten o'clock in the morning when they came back from the diving equipment store, so it was almost time for lunch now.

But if her mother came to find her at this time...

Xiaolan bit her lower lip and reluctantly put the empty cup back. Then she picked up the phone from beside the cup and looked at the caller ID. Immediately, even the remaining smile disappeared, and she even frowned.

"what happened?"

Noticing the girl's change in mood, Serabelle asked in confusion while calming her breathing.

"Uh... Kudo Shinichi called?"

"Ah."

Without hiding her inner disgust at all, Xiaolan nodded helplessly.

If possible, she really didn't want to answer the call, but in order to hide the fact that she had recovered her memory, she had to answer the call.

Click the answer button, put it to your ear, and say nothing.

After about two or three seconds, a familiar and slightly panicked boy's voice sounded on the other end of the line.

"Uh... Lan? Is that you?"

"Hello, this is Mao Lilan, may I ask who you are..."

Xiaolan pretended not to recognize the voice.

The phone was not on speakerphone, but given the distance and posture between the two of them, Serabel's hearing was enough for him to hear the voice on the phone clearly.

Then Conan asked cautiously in Kudo Shinichi's voice.

"Lan, are you running... or something like that? I heard your breathing sound a little hurried..."

"It's me, because I just took a long walk."

Xiao Jianlan tried her best to slow down her breathing, and with a red face, she poked Serabel's waist, signaling him to cover it up a little.

Serabelle understood and pursed her lips to indicate that she would speak more quietly.

Xiaolan curled her lips and continued to deal with Conan on the other end of the phone.

"So who are you anyway, and if there's nothing else I'm hanging up."

"Oh no, wait wait!"

When Conan heard that Xiaolan was about to hang up the phone, he suddenly became anxious and quickly stopped her.

"I was just...thinking. I'm Kudo Shinichi. I know you lost your memory due to some things some time ago, but I thought you might have heard of me. We were childhood sweethearts. Actually, after I heard that you lost your memory, I wanted to come back to find you as soon as possible, but I have a big case on hand so I can't leave for the time being..."

"Oh it's okay, I'm fine now."

There was a hint of confusion in Xiaolan's calm tone.

Come to think of it, her current public persona is that of an amnesiac girl, and the name Kudo Shinichi is basically a complete stranger to her.

Imagine a stranger suddenly calls you and says he wants to visit you. Anyone would wonder, "Who are you?" I'm nice and I don't know you well. Can we discuss whether you can come or not?

"So, that..."

Conan got stuck on his words again.

"Oh, by the way, I heard from my relative's kid these days that you are traveling on Shenhai Island. You should know Conan. I asked him to bring you a gift. Did you receive it, Lan?"

I'm so...

Xiaolan held her forehead slightly, feeling her blood pressure rising little by little and her brain blood vessels beating rapidly.

Let’s not talk about anything else. You, Kudo Shinichi, are Conan. Even if other people don’t know it on the surface, you should at least know it, and you should also know that she has already refused it, right?

Why are you asking again?

What's more, he already knew that she was on Shenhai Island, and he even specially "asked" someone to buy local souvenirs from Shenhai Island for him. Would a normal person give gifts like this?

Because there were so many complaints, Xiaolan had no idea what to say, so she simply made it clear that she had rejected Conan.

"Oh, that, I already know that, but now that I have lost my memory, it is not nice for me to just casually accept a gift from someone I don't know, so thank you for your kindness, but I won't take the gift."

Having said this, Xiaolan paused for a moment, calmed herself down a little and continued.

"And if possible, please don't call me again. We may have known each other before, and you still remember me, but I don't have any impression of you anymore. I would be troubled if someone I don't know called me frequently. I'm very sorry. That's it..."

"Ah Lan, wait a minute!"

Conan wanted to say something else, but the phone was hung up.

In the large dormitory room of a residential building, he knelt on the ground and stared blankly at the mobile phone screen which showed "call ended", unable to recover for a long time.

On the other side, Xiaolan hung up the phone in the bathroom and blacklisted the number. She put down her phone and breathed a sigh of relief.

"It's finally over. I don't have to worry about it anymore."

She came forward, put her arms around Serabelle's neck, and whispered in her ear with a little force.

"It's already past eleven o'clock. We should probably go downstairs for dinner."

"it is good."

Serabelle placed her hands on either side of the girl's waist and nodded.

"Let's go downstairs and eat after the last one."

"Eh? Do it again?"

Xiaolan looked slightly conflicted.

Serabelle tilted her head.

"Lan, are you hungry now?"

"Well... not really, but we still have to go downstairs later. If it happens again, I might..."

The girl bit her lip and hesitated for a while, but finally agreed with a blushing face.

"Okay, let's do it again. This is really the last time. No more."

Chapter 693 Divorce, Maori Kogoro

In short, the three-day trip to Shenhai Island ended just like that.

The day to return to Tokyo was set for the fourth day, but because the ferry itinerary of Shenhai Island was rather odd, with only two trips a day at six o'clock in the morning and evening, plus it was difficult to get the older girls who had been having so much fun these days to get up at five in the morning, Serabelle and the others eventually planned to spend the day of the fourth day on Shenhai Island and leave in the evening.

Although this would cost an extra day's room fee, none of them were short of money, so it didn't matter.

The last day of the trip is usually spent filling in the gaps, visiting places that had a low priority in the previous few days and have not been visited yet, trying various foods that have not been tasted yet, and buying some souvenirs or something.

However, since there is not much to play on Shenhai Island itself, there is no need to check for omissions and fill in the gaps.

In the end, Serabelle and the others just went to a restaurant run by fishermen on the island for a meal at noon, and once again experienced the seafood delicacies that were sent to the restaurant as soon as they were salvaged from the dock in the morning, and then cooked into dishes at noon.
