Conan: Life between Green Plum and Skyfall

After hearing Yusaku's words, Yukiko's eyes lit up instantly:

"Okay! Honey, you're right! Shin-chan is so smart, there will definitely be no problem. We should trust him! Let's go back to sleep~"

Yukiko, who had been shopping all the time, was exhausted. So, upon hearing Yusaku's suggestion, she immediately threw herself into the fray! Conan? A son or something, how could it be more important than being a mother?

Besides, the mother and daughter were planning to trick Yusaku, not herself! If Yusaku wasn't going, why should she go?

The most important thing is that she knows very well that her little brat hasn't really had an accident, so it shouldn't be a problem to go find him a day or two later, right?

Seeing this scene, Yusaku's mouth corners slightly raised:

"Okay, let's go back!"

After saying that, the two heartless people got in the car and went back to sleep.

......

On the other hand, our poor Conan, in this snowy day, was still wearing his small suit and shorts as usual. He was shivering in the empty and drafty place, quietly waiting for his parents to arrive.

In his opinion, his father's reasoning ability was absolutely first-rate! With his so-called secret codes, it was impossible for him to be hard to figure out.

Therefore, the code itself was just a cover! As long as his father came over, he could happily tell him that he had tricked him!

But because of this, he couldn't go anywhere right now. Not to mention what would happen if Dad and the others came looking for him if he left, besides, even if he left, there was nowhere suitable to go!

Dr. Agasa's house? What if the doctor tells his father about this? Will he be able to play his game anymore?

As for the Maori family, he was just picked up today, and then he ran back on his own? This is inappropriate no matter how you look at it!

As for Cheng Shi's place...the clinic isn't even finished yet, so why would I go there? Would I have to squeeze into the utility room with him?

Cold, hungry, penniless, and with his phone out of battery, Conan sat in the drafty room, feeling his hands and feet go numb.

"Mom and Dad, what are you doing? Why haven't you come yet? I'm starving!"

"Ah!"

Back in the warm hotel, Yukiko had a delicious meal, took a hot bath, and lay on the warm, soft and comfortable big bed.

However, just as she was about to go to bed, her nose suddenly felt itchy and she sneezed.

"Yukiko, what's wrong with you?"

"I am fine."

Yukiko rubbed her slightly red nose:

“It’s just that I always feel like someone is talking about me behind my back, and my nose is itchy.

"Oh, maybe you were lying in the snow for too long today and caught a cold!"

Yusaku chuckled and patted her on the back:

"Rest early, a good night's sleep will be enough~"

"Is that so? All right then!"

Yukiko thought about it for a moment and felt that what Yusaku said made sense. So, she nodded, and soon fell into a deep sleep.

Yusaku, on his part, once again took out the letter Yukiko had given him and read it carefully:

"This handwriting... is quite interesting."

......

"Yusaku, do you think I forgot something?"

The next morning, Yukiko woke up Yusaku who was still sleeping and said with a complicated expression.

"what happened?"

"I always feel like I've forgotten something. I feel uneasy and can't sleep well."

Yusaku nodded inwardly upon hearing this, becoming even more convinced of his own thoughts. Then, he smiled and said:

"If you can't remember, then it's not important! Come on, while the editor isn't rushing you to submit, I'll take you out for a walk and you can think about it slowly on the way."

Yukiko nodded thoughtfully after hearing this:

"You make sense. Let's go shopping!"

......

"Honey! This way! I want to check out this store!"

When they arrived at the commercial street, Yukiko seemed to have forgotten what had happened before. She became lively again and took Yusaku with her to stroll around.

Looking at the large and small shopping bags on his body, Yusaku's expression was a little complicated:

"Yukiko, didn't you say you forgot something?"

"Have it?"

Yukiko was stunned for a moment:

“Probably not!

Besides, didn't you say that, Yusaku? If I forgot, then it means it's not important! If it's not important, how can I let it affect my mood for shopping?

Let’s go shopping! I still have a lot of things I want to buy!”

Just when Yusaku was about to say something, he suddenly saw someone:

"Looks like I don't need to remind you now."

"What's wrong? Let's go!"

When Yukiko realized that the person behind her had not caught up, she looked back in confusion.

"Aunt Yukiko?!"

"Eh? That voice, Xiaolan? Why are you here? Also, remember to call me sister!"

Following the sound, Yukiko found Xiaolan standing in front of her.

"Ah, Sonoko and I were out shopping and just happened to pass by here."

Xiaolan smiled sweetly:

"But Yukiko... Sister, when did you come back? Has Shinichi contacted you? I hope he's okay lately!"

"Xiao Xin, he..."

Yukiko was about to say it was okay, but suddenly, she finally remembered something and the smile on her face froze instantly.

"? What happened to Shinichi? Did something happen?"

Seeing Yukiko suddenly stuck, Xiaolan asked anxiously and worriedly.

"It's okay, it's okay. That brat is fine, jumping around like crazy, there's nothing wrong with him at all!"

Yukiko quickly adjusted her mood, demonstrated her self-cultivation as an actor, and successfully fooled Xiaolan.

After saying goodbye to Xiaolan, Yukiko's face changed instantly:

"Yusaku, what should I do? I forgot about Shin-chan! We haven't been looking for him and haven't been doing what the mastermind wants us to do. I wonder if he's in danger!"

Yusaku looked at Yukiko deeply:

"It's okay. Besides, there's no point in being anxious."

"?"

Yukiko looked at Yusaku and slowly typed a question mark.

"What do you mean, aren't you worried about Xiao Xin's safety?"

"No, it's just that it's useless to look for it even if you want to!"

Yusaku smiled and took out the letter, pointing to a paragraph:

"Look, why do they specifically use the title 'Baron of the Night' here?"

"Because the name of the protagonist in your novel is Baron of the Night?"

Yukiko asked curiously.

Yusaku shook his head:

"The Baron in the darkness is actually a reminder of the time! In other words, if you want to crack this code, you can only do it at night."

Hearing this, Yukiko nodded somewhat confusedly:

"so?"

Yusaku shook the bag on his body:

"So, Yukiko, let's go back and get some rest before preparing for tonight's operation."
