Traveling back thirty years to Conan, intercepting Princess Eri

Chapter 234 Yukiko: Why aren’t you wearing clothes?
"Am I that kind of person?" Lin Xiuyi spread his hands, his face full of innocence.

"You are!" Yukiko bit her lower lip and said angrily, "I used to think you were a good person, but you deceived me. You are a big pervert!"

"Please, I don't live alone. Lingzi is at home. Even if I wanted to... it's impossible," Lin Xiuyi said, looking up at the dark sky. "It might rain soon. Do you want to stay out in the rain all night?"

Yukiko then remembered that Lin Xiuyi did not live alone. After hesitating for a moment, she muttered softly, "Then, I'll go over and sleep over there for the night."

The two returned the same way. It was already past eleven o'clock and there were few pedestrians on the street.

Yukiko glanced at the chef's uniform on Lin Xiuyi and said, "Aren't you afraid that the glasses girl will be angry if you chase her out like this? Besides, what will happen to the business in the store?"

"I didn't have time to think so much at the time," Lin Xiuyi said honestly, "When I saw you running away, I got anxious and chased after you."

"...You still have some conscience," Yukiko tried hard to keep a straight face, but the corners of her mouth couldn't help but curl up slightly, revealing her inner joy.

……

When the two returned to the Mori family's small building, the lights in the izakaya were still on.

Yukiko stood at the door, hesitating and not daring to go in.

"What's wrong?" Lin Xiuyi asked in surprise.

"The girl with glasses will definitely make fun of me..." Yukiko pursed her lips.

"Eri is not that petty," Lin Xiuyi defended his childhood sweetheart, but he also felt that his words were a bit too fake, so he simply lifted the curtain and walked in.

All the customers in the store had left, and only Kogoro Mouri was left there, mopping the floor intermittently with a mop.

Seeing Lin Xiuyi coming in, Maori Kogoro immediately stopped what he was doing and complained, "Where have you been? Why are you all like this tonight, leaving all the work to me..."

"Where are Eri and Reiko?" Lin Xiuyi looked around the store but could not see the two girls.

"As soon as you ran out to chase Yukiko, Eri came home with a gloomy face," Maori Kogoro said, wiping the sweat from his forehead with his hand, "and your sister also came upstairs to join in the fun."

"You didn't finish the dishes for two customers, and in the end I had to apologize to them humbly before you sent them away!"

"Sorry, let me do the rest of the work," Lin Xiuyi said, and went to get the mop.

"Then I'll leave it to you!" Maori Kogoro handed over the mop and then stretched. "I'm really exhausted today."

After saying that, he walked out of the izakaya and prepared to go upstairs to go home, but as soon as he walked out the door, he saw Yukiko standing at the door with an embarrassed expression.

"Yukiko, didn't you go home?" Kogoro Mouri looked surprised.

"She didn't bring her key to her house, so she plans to stay at my place for one night," Lin Xiuyi leaned out and explained.

"I see," Kogoro Mouri yawned nonchalantly and turned to go upstairs.

"Come in," Lin Xiuyi waved to the girl, "Eri and Reiko went back a long time ago."

"That's good..." Yukiko breathed a sigh of relief, and her tense body relaxed.

She walked into the izakaya and touched her stomach. She was about to go to the counter to find something to eat, but then she remembered that she was still angry with Lin Xiuyi, so she said with a straight face, "I'm hungry. Go make me something delicious."

"Okay," Lin Xiuyi nodded with a smile.

It started to drizzle outside, and the raindrops gently hit the window, making a "tick-tick" sound.

Yukiko found a seat by the window, sat down, supported her chin with one hand, and looked at the rain outside the window.

The rain slid down the glass, blurring her vision, and the whole world became hazy.

The girl listened to the sound of rain while watching Lin Xiuyi busy behind the kitchen counter.

If I didn't become an actor, and just went to school normally, graduated, and got married, that would probably be what it would feel like.

This idea suddenly popped up in Yukiko's mind.

She runs an izakaya with Lin Xiuyi, seeing off customers at night and cleaning the shop together...

Thinking of this, her cheeks flushed slightly, and then she quickly shook her head, trying to get rid of the idea from her mind.

Who wants to marry that philandering bastard!
Besides, my acting career has just begun, and I will definitely become a world-famous star in the future. If I can't be an actor, what's the point of life?
While Yukiko was struggling, time passed little by little. When the girl came to her senses, a large bowl filled with thin and wide noodles was placed in front of her.

The noodles are garnished with green chopped green onions and fresh side dishes, and the soup is rich and exudes an enticing aroma.

"Don't you know how to do it?"

Yukiko picked up the chopsticks in surprise and took a bite of the noodles impatiently.
"Hmm, it tastes exactly like the one from Gunma..."

"I just made it according to your method. How can the taste be different?" Lin Xiuyi smiled as he watched the girl eating with relish.

What he served to Yukiko was the Kiryu belt udon that the girl had ordered when she pretended to be a customer.

The name of this thing looks complicated, but it is actually specially rolled thin belt noodles.

Although Yukiko had only done it two or three times in the store, Lin Xiuyi learned it after just a quick look.

It was just easy for him to learn this, but in Yukiko's opinion, she thought he was learning it specifically for her.

Although the girl didn't say much, she felt sweet in her heart, and her eyes looking at Lin Xiuyi unconsciously became a little softer.

……

After finishing the udon, seeing Lin Xiuyi picking up the dishes and preparing to clean up, Yukiko stopped being angry and stood up to help him.

The two of them cooperated tacitly, one washed the dishes and the other wiped the table. After a while, they cleaned the izakaya and then went upstairs together.

Standing at the door, Yukiko bit her lip and said worriedly, "Will Reiko not welcome me?"

"Don't worry, she's asleep by now," Lin Xiuyi opened the door with the key.

Just as he said, the little cousin was young and had already gone to bed. The room was quiet. Only Wangcai heard the noise, ran to the living room, and looked at the two of them, wagging his tail.

"Wangcai, long time no see," Yukiko squatted down and touched the dog's head.

Wangcai lowered his head obediently and let her caress him, making a "woohoo" sound from his mouth, as if expressing his welcome to her.

"I don't know how Lingzi taught us," Lin Xiuyi said with a smile, "Everyone can touch Wangcai, but Eri can't."

After teasing the stupid dog for a while, Yukiko blushed slightly and stood in the living room at a loss, her eyes wandering around. She asked in a low voice: "Where should I sleep?"

"Of course I'll sleep in my bedroom..."

Before Lin Xiuyi could finish his words, the girl couldn't help but take a step back, looking at him warily, her hands subconsciously protecting her chest.

"You sleep in the bedroom, and I'll sleep on the sofa," Lin Xiuyi said with a helpless expression, "I don't even have this little credibility left now?" "Humph, who can you blame then?" Yukiko glared at him, then said with embarrassment, "I, I didn't bring pajamas..."

"Wear mine," Lin Xiuyi took her into the bedroom and opened the wardrobe.

Yukiko immediately fell in love with the sky blue pajamas with a kitten pattern on them: "I'll wear this. I didn't expect you like cats too. If my apartment wasn't forbidding cats, I would have already kept several kittens at home."

Yukiko's pajamas at home also had a kitten pattern on them, which Hayashi Shuichi had seen when he had visited before.

Seeing the girl trying on her pajamas and muttering that they were a bit too loud, Lin Xiuyi could only swallow the words that were on the tip of his tongue.

This pajamas of his was given to him by Eri Kisaki, and it is exactly the same style as hers.

"I'm going to the bathroom to take a shower, you are not allowed to peek!" Yukiko warned and walked towards the bathroom humming a little tune.

Seeing that she had gone out, Lin Xiuyi took out another set of ordinary pajamas from the closet and prepared to change into them.

However, just as he took off his clothes and was about to change into pajamas, the bedroom door suddenly opened and Yukiko rushed in without even looking.

"Xuyi, taking a shower..."

Before she could finish her words, the girl saw the naked Lin Xiuyi. Her eyes immediately widened and her mouth opened wide, as if she wanted to scream.

Lin Xiuyi hurried forward and covered her mouth with his hand: "Don't shout, you'll wake Lingzi up!"

Yukiko's face flushed with shame, and she didn't dare to look down. She struggled hard in panic, making a "wuwu" sound continuously.

"Think about it," Lin Xiuyi warned, "If Lingzi saw us like this, there would be no explanation. There would be chaos in the house."

"...Yeah," Yukiko nodded quickly.

After Lin Xiuyi slowly let go of her hand, she quickly turned around, facing away from him, and said angrily, "Why aren't you wearing any clothes?"

"Please, this is my bedroom. I need to change clothes before going to bed at night," Lin Xiuyi quickly picked up his pajamas and put them on, explaining as he put them on, "Didn't you go take a shower? Why are you back so suddenly?"

"There's no shampoo in the bathroom. I came to ask if you've bought new ones..." Yukiko stamped her feet in anger, the blush spreading all the way to her ears. "Who knew that..."

"Hey, you saw me naked, and I was clearly at a disadvantage, yet you're still mad at me?" Lin Xiuyi let out a wicked smile. "How about you let me see you too, and then we'll be even?"

"You big pervert! Don't even think about it!" Yukiko glared at him with a red face, then hurriedly walked out of the bedroom.

Lin Xiuyi followed him out amusedly. The girl immediately stopped and looked at him warily: "Why are you following me?"

"Aren't you out of shampoo? I'll get it for you," Lin Xiu said with a smile.

"Then hurry up," Yukiko snorted in shame and anger, "If I had known this would happen, I would rather shower outside than stay at your house."

Lin Xiuyi took out new shampoo and put it in the bathroom.

After the girl went in, she quickly locked the door. Then she leaned against the door, covering her face with her hands, feeling it was burning hot.

Although Yukiko tried hard not to recall what she had just seen, the more she resisted, the more the scene flashed through her mind, especially the image of Lin Xiuyi standing in front of her with that thing swinging.

……

More than forty minutes later, Yukiko walked out of the bathroom with a flushed face wearing Hayashi Shuichi's pajamas.

Her hair was still wet, with a few strands sticking to her cheeks. Her pajamas were a little big and loose, making her look even more petite.

Yukiko wanted to go back to the bedroom to sleep directly, but she saw that Lin Xiuyi was lying on the sofa with his eyes closed.

"I'm done washing," the girl walked to the sofa and gently pushed Lin Xiuyi, "You can go wash now."

"I'm a little tired, let's forget about it tonight..." Lin Xiuyi yawned without opening his eyes, his voice full of sleepiness.

"Hurry up and take a shower," Yukiko pulled him up forcefully, "If you don't take a shower, you're not allowed to enter the bedroom tonight..."

After she said this, she realized something was wrong. Why did her words sound so much like something an old couple would say?

Oh right, Mom used to say this when she urged Dad to take a bath. I was so confused that I learned this too...

Yukiko was annoyed. Seeing Lin Xiuyi stand up and walk towards the bathroom, she hurriedly stopped him and said, "You, you are not allowed to take a shower?"

"Miss, didn't you ask me to wash it?" Lin Xiuyi said sleepily, "Why did you suddenly stop me from doing so?"

"I..." Yukiko was suddenly speechless, not knowing how to answer. She could only say angrily, "Even if you shower, I won't let you into the bedroom!"

Lin Xiu perked up instantly: "What do you mean by entering the bedroom? Who wants to enter your bedroom?"

Uh, it turns out he was too sleepy just now and didn’t hear it?

Yukiko breathed a sigh of relief and quickly reached out to push Lin Xiuyi towards the bathroom.
"I said I went into the bedroom, it has nothing to do with you, go take a shower quickly!"

……

Early the next morning, Lin Xiuyi woke up and felt sore in his back and waist, as if his whole body was falling apart.

I'm used to sleeping in a bed, so it's really uncomfortable to sleep on the sofa...

He rubbed his sleepy eyes and looked out the window. It was still early.

Lin Xiuyi didn't want to wake up Reiko and Yukiko, so he went downstairs in his pajamas to exercise.

Not long after he left, Lingzi also walked out of her small bedroom yawning.

My little cousin’s hair was messy, like a bird’s nest, and her eyes were half open and half closed, as if she hadn’t woken up yet.

After she went to the bathroom to use the toilet, she walked to the door of her brother's bedroom.

She went upstairs and went home early last night, and she didn't know when her brother came back...

Thinking of this, the little girl quietly opened the bedroom door.

The curtains in the bedroom were drawn tightly and the light was dim.

The little cousin tiptoed to the bedside and saw that her brother who was sleeping in the bed had pulled the quilt so high that it even covered his head.

Reiko shook her head and was about to help her brother pull down the quilt, but she saw that the alarm clock on the bedside table showed it was still early.

Thinking of this, the little girl simply took off her slippers, climbed onto the bed, and prepared to squeeze in with her brother and take a nap.

After lifting the quilt and crawling in, Lingzi wanted to hug her brother, but when she reached out, she felt two big lumps...
