I am in Mihua, and the ladies all like me

Chapter 112 Izu, Beach, Kisaki Eri

Location: Beika-cho 5-chome, inside the Mori Detective Agency.

This is the living room on the second floor of the office, and it is also where Kogoro Mori works and lives.

Usually he would sit behind a large desk with his back to the window, drinking tea, reading newspapers, and listening to horse racing betting. Occasionally he would glance at the newspaper to learn about recent cases.

However, since it was already late at night and well past closing time, all the lights in the living room were off, and the darkness of the night filled the space.

The billboard of the store across the street was still on, and colorful lights shone into the room through the rows of windows on the second floor. A graceful figure of a young girl was standing by the window, talking quietly on the phone. The "auspicious beast horn" on her forehead, which would always be firmly raised no matter when, where or under what conditions, was highly recognizable.

"Um... um... yes, are you free over there, Mom?"

It turned out that he was secretly calling Kisaki Eri late at night.

After waiting for about three or four seconds, Xiaolan heard a positive reply from the other end of the phone. She instantly became excited, jumped a little on the spot and subconsciously raised her voice a little.

"Eh? No problem? Really? Well, let's put it this way... this Saturday and Sunday, Izu Beach..."

Perhaps the noise in the living room was a little too loud for the quiet environment in the middle of the night.

Xiaolan had just finished jumping for joy when, about six or seven meters behind her, a bedroom door was quietly opened from the inside. A little face that looked very sleepy, or even nine out of ten, popped out from it, looking speechlessly at the unicorn girl in the living room who was holding the microphone and was in high spirits.

"Sister Xiaolan, what are you doing so late at night?"

"Eh? I..."

Xiaolan covered the microphone and looked in the direction of the voice, smiling slightly embarrassedly.

"Sorry, Conan, did I wake you up? I'm talking to a friend on the phone, I'll be right there... Sorry, sorry, hehe~"

After saying that, she added into the microphone, "That's settled then," then decisively hung up the phone, humming a little tune as she walked past Conan and came to the door of her room in a very good mood.

He even waved to the latter with a smile before entering the door.

"Good night~"

"..."

What the hell is Xiaolan doing?

Conan thought speechlessly.

……

The view angle changed and a black Audi was speeding along the coastal highway.

This is a ring road that runs through the island from north to south. Looking from north to south, there are lush forests on the right hand side, and on the left hand side, as long as you cross the safety isolation belt beside the road, there is a rocky white sandy beach and the vast sea that stretches as far as the eye can see and connects with the blue sky above.

The golden sunlight shines down from the sky, and white seagulls fly freely over the sea, occasionally throwing some small fruits down below.

"Really? Why do I have to come?"

In the back seat of the Audi, a British blonde girl, who was rarely seen wearing beach vacation clothes, sighed helplessly.

This was the fourth time she had made such a complaint during her trip.

The reason is not because Mary Akai is not interested in the beach and the sea, but because if you want to travel to the beach, you must wear clothes for beach travel.

Although she usually wears children's clothes, there are also more mature styles in children's clothes, such as children's suits, children's shirts, etc. It is equivalent to just changing the size of adult clothes to a smaller size to satisfy some mothers' desire to dress up their children.

But when it comes to beach swimwear for children that is slightly more adult-sized, there really isn't one.

How to be an adult in a swimsuit?

It's nothing more than a three-point style.

So the question is, there should be no swimsuit designer in the world who is crazy enough to design a three-point swimsuit for children.

And even if there are, most parents would not agree to buy such clothes for their children.

Therefore, the children's swimwear currently available on the market are basically cute and innocent, and the color matching is also light-hearted and bright.

However, asking Mary Akai to wear this kind of swimsuit is like asking a British gentleman who has long been accustomed to wearing a suit to get off work to suddenly change into a rag doll costume to go out one day.

It's too explosive.

In the end, after much selection, Masumi Sera finally picked out the uniform student swimsuit worn in Japanese schools, known as "SUKUSUI".

Regardless of the shape, at least the color has been changed to a more mature navy blue.

In other words, at this moment, under the white shirt and pleated skirt that Akai Mary is wearing, she is actually wearing a student swimsuit that fits her body perfectly.

It is worth mentioning that Masumi Sera herself also chose a student swimsuit, which she called a mother-daughter outfit.

Hearing her mother's complaints in the back seat, a girl with tiger teeth turned around with a smile.

"Well, after all, this is our first trip since coming to Japan, and it's early summer at Izu Beach, so it's definitely fun. Besides, if we all go and you don't go, then we'll just have to stay in the hotel alone, which is so boring."

"Boring? That's not the case..."

Akai Mari frowned slightly and instinctively wanted to deny it, but her words became unclear towards the end.

She thought back to the four days that Serabelle had been in New York.

Well, it is boring to be alone in a hotel.

"Hey, just go out and have some fun, gogogo!"

Without noticing the change in his old mother's mood, Sera Masumi raised his arms and cheered loudly.

Having said that, Akai Mari didn't intend to continue to object, so she just sighed and backed off.

It takes about two hours to drive from Tokyo to Izu. After another half hour of bumpy ride, the black Audi finally stopped in front of a hotel next to a large beach in Izu.

The hotel was naturally chosen by Masumi Sera. The reason for choosing this place was very simple, because it was close to the Caspian Sea and there was a beach and sea almost as soon as you stepped out of the door.

After all, the entire hotel is built next to the beach.

Since it was the weekend and Japan had a two-day weekend, even though it was only Saturday morning, there were already quite a lot of tourists at the beach outside the main entrance of the hotel.

Most of them are young people, such as students who made an appointment to play together on Friday, parents and children who have time on weekends to bring their children to play, and... groups of beautiful female college students wearing bikinis.

Sera Masumi covered her mouth and laughed maliciously: "Haha, there are so many beautiful girls. Bernie-chan must be staring at them~"

Hearing this, Akai Mari raised her head and glanced at him intentionally or unintentionally.

This was an easy question, and Serabel shrugged tactfully.

"How can it be."

As you enter the hotel lobby from the main entrance, the refreshing cool breeze from the central air-conditioning immediately blows towards you.

The rooms had been booked in advance and the fees had already been paid. They were a single room and a double room, so Serabelle and the others now only needed to go to the front desk to get the room cards.

But just three seconds after entering the door, an unexpected "Huh?" came from not far away.

The voice sounded familiar to Serabelle, so she subconsciously turned around to look.

In the public lounge area on the east side of the hotel lobby, several familiar faces were sitting in a booth with leather sofas, and the atmosphere was a little weird.

Kogoro Mouri, Ran, the elementary school student who is a god of death, and... Eri Kisaki.

"What a coincidence."

Serabelle murmured.

If you run into an acquaintance in the car while traveling, it would be fine if you don't recognize him/her. But if you recognize him/her and pretend you know nothing and avoid him/her, that would be a bit embarrassing.

What's more, Masumi Sera and Xiaolan are classmates.

Anyway, at least say hello.

"Hello, hello~ I didn't expect to meet you here, Lan."

"Yeah, what a coincidence! I didn't expect that you guys, Masumi-san, would also come to Izu to play..."

The two high school girls, who were friends of the same age and classmates, quickly started chatting with each other.

But Conan, who was the source of all this, now felt a little regretful.

To be honest, the last time he met Serabelle was on the cruise ship of the Suzuki Group because of the Dark Star incident, which was almost half a month ago.

As the saying goes, a Taoist priest feels like a long time away after three days of absence, but since the last incident with Kaito Kid was not very pleasant, he really doesn't know how to face Serabell now.

In contrast, the latter didn't mind at all. He just whitewashed his hand and pulled him aside, glancing at the two people who were not looking at each other in the booth in the rest area not far away.

"What's going on? I remember Miss Lan's parents were separated, right?"

"…Do you have to ask such a question?"

Conan hesitated to speak.

Serabelle shrugged calmly.

"Everyone has a gossipy heart, so why not tell me about it?"

"All right……"

Conan had been holding back a lot of complaints and had been looking for someone to talk to. After making sure that Kogoro Mouri wouldn't hear them at this distance, he decisively lowered his voice and told the truth.

In the final analysis, it was just that he owed 8 million before, and in the end it was Kisaki Eri who helped complete the commission and successfully got 10 million to pay off the debt.

Although Conan did not attend that case, it is estimated that Xiaolan told him about it after she returned, and he also knew that Serabell was involved in the case.

"You should be able to tell that Aunt Eri is a very upright person. She is also engaged in a legal profession and is very disgusted with gambling. She and Uncle Maori were originally separated, and the previous incident made their relationship even more tense. They are almost at the point where they could get divorced at any time."

"Then Lan wanted to repair their relationship, so he used some coaxing methods to force them all to come here for a trip, which led to the situation you see now... It's very embarrassing."

Speaking of this, Conan couldn't help but recall the behavior of a certain uncle before Serabelle and others came, and he couldn't help but sigh.

"Well, I guess Lan's good intentions will be in vain."

ohh~

After all, it was someone else's family affair, so Serabelle couldn't make any comment. She just patted him on the shoulder and said her condolences.

Conan silently rolled his eyes and thought to himself, why should I mourn?

After all, he helps Kogoro Mouri solve cases every day and gets shot in the head from time to time. He would be quite happy if he could see the other party being humiliated.

We were already separated anyway, so getting a divorce wouldn't be a big deal.

"Okay, I'll go over and say hello too."

Turning her head, she saw that Masumi Sera and Xiaolan had almost finished their conversation not far away. Serabell said something casually, then walked towards the booth.

Conan responded subconsciously, but was a beat too slow to react. Just as he was about to raise his leg to catch up, he suddenly caught a glimpse of a blonde girl appearing beside Serabel and walking forward with the latter.

Eh? Was there this person next to them just now?

Xiao Ke was completely fooled by Akai Mary's agent steps and his CPU burned out for a while.

"...I see. So this means that your whole family is traveling together this time, Ran."

On the other side, Sera Masumi and Xiaolan were chatting happily with a smile on their faces.

In fact, she had roughly guessed the specific situation from the latter's few words and the atmosphere on the scene, but seeing that Xiaolan was working so hard to maintain the situation, she simply cooperated.

"Eh, they can't be considered together~"

As Xiao Qilan spoke, she looked at the two people in the booth who were not looking at each other at all, as if she was observing a perfect couple.

"Actually, my parents just happened to meet here in Izu. Luckily, they happened to meet at the same beach. I said they really have a destiny, right?"

"Yes, yes." Sera Masumi said against his will.

Not to mention anything else, even she, a new outsider, could see that all this was obviously arranged by Xiaolan, not to mention Kogoro Mouri and Eri Kisaki.

With such a family relationship, it can only be said that this unicorn girl has suffered a lot.

"Hi hi hi~"

At this time, Serabelle, who had been gossiping with Conan on the side, finally came over and waved to the two people in the booth.

"Long time no see, Detective Maori and Lawyer Hime."

"Oh...it's you."

Kogoro Mouri was already a little uninterested, and when he saw Serabell coming, he just reluctantly responded with a greeting.

On the contrary, Kisaki Eri, who had been silent since the beginning and only spoke a few words to her daughter, stood up, walked out of her seat, and politely shook the boy's hand. A sincere smile appeared on her beautiful and intellectual face.
