People in Detective Conan are going crazy over the comments section.

The ship continued its journey, seagulls soared through the air, and the view outside the window was a clear blue.

Asakawa Yu led Miyano Akemi into the cabin.

"Ayami-neechan, over here, over here!"

As they entered the corridor, Sonoko Suzuki was waving and calling out to them.

"What's wrong, Sonoko?" Miyano Akemi walked over, and Asakawa Yu followed.

"Actually, I wanted to invite you all to come and play at Xiaolan's place, and also Miss Qinglan. I was just about to go and call her when I ran into you here."

"I see, that sounds interesting. Why don't you come along, boss?" Miyano Akemi smiled, preparing to pull Asakawa Hayao along.

"Oh yeah, oh yeah, Asakawa-nii is coming too! There are lots of beautiful girls there later!" Sonoko said to Asakawa Yu with a grin, her obviously flirtatious manner giving Asakawa Yu goosebumps.

"...Since she's already asked me to come along, then let's go. As long as you don't mind." Asakawa Yu shrugged.

"Of course I don't mind. Mr. Nishino was supposed to come along, but he seemed to have seen too many beautiful women and ran away shyly."

…………

"So Miss Xia Mei has been living in Paris since she was twenty years old."

Inside the room, Asakawa Yu and Miyano Akemi sat on the sofa. Miyano Akemi listened with great interest to Ran and the others chatting, while Asakawa Yu quietly sipped his black tea.

"Yes...that's why my Japanese is weird."

Afterwards, as they chatted, the conversation turned to the Chinese characters for their names.

“Yes, your surname is pronounced Maoli in Chinese,” Pu Siqinglan said in broken Chinese.

"Mouri, then my name will be Ran Mouri... It sounds so cute!" Ran found it very interesting to hear her Chinese name.

"What about me? How do you say my name in Chinese?" Sonoko quickly pointed to herself, wanting to know what her Chinese name was.

"Your Chinese pronunciation is Suzuki meatballs."

"Suzuki Meatballs?" Upon hearing this name, Sonoko lowered her head, sweating slightly, seemingly pondering why her name sounded so unpleasant.

"Cough cough!"

"Boss? What's wrong? Oh dear, how come you choked on your water?" Seeing Asakawa Yu coughing for no reason, Miyano Akemi thought that Asakawa Yu had choked because he drank too fast, and quickly asked with concern.

"It's nothing, it was just an accident." Then, Asakawa Yu wiped her face with a tissue and poured herself a cup of black tea as if nothing had happened.

Actually, he had been enduring it all along, for no other reason than that Pu Siqinglan's broken Chinese accent was just too torturous.

But what really made him lose his composure was that one sentence, "Suzuki meatballs." Ran and the others couldn't understand it, but Asakawa Yu understood it perfectly, and needless to say, the people in the comments section certainly did too.

Now, some people will definitely suspect Pu Siqinglan, but since no cases have occurred yet, it's just suspicion.

[Hahaha, this is hilarious! Suzuki meatballs, hahaha!]

[Dude, do you really speak Chinese?]

I feel like there's something wrong with this person. They claim to be Chinese, but they can't even speak Chinese correctly.

[That's what I think too, but the only information we have right now is about the black guy who sniped Kid, but I really can't see what connection this woman has with Kid.]

The comments section was filled with various opinions, and some people had already begun to speculate on Pu Siqinglan's true purpose, but they were unable to do so due to a lack of clues.

"What about Asakawa-nii's name? It must be a really nice-sounding name, right?" As she spoke, Sonoko turned the conversation back to Asakawa Yu, seemingly wanting to know how to pronounce Asakawa Yu's Chinese name.

"This gentleman, his name is..."

"My Chinese name is Asakawa Yu." Before Pu Siqinglan, Asakawa Yu said her name in Chinese first.

"Huh? Asakawa Yu? Wait, does that mean you can speak Chinese, Asakawa-nii-san?" Asakawa Yu's fluent Chinese surprised Sonoko and the others, and even Conan looked at himself in shock.

"Yes, because I really like the culture of the neighboring country, so I also taught myself some Chinese."

Upon hearing this, Ran and Sonoko's eyes seemed to sparkle, while Conan looked at him with surprise, as if to say: No, how many things do you still not know about me?!

"Wow, boss! Do you know how to say my name?"

Miyano Akemi wasn't particularly surprised that Asakawa Yu could speak Chinese, because in her mind, her boss was omnipotent. Even if you told her that Asakawa Yu could build airplanes, she would probably believe it.

"Your name in Chinese is Miyano Akemi, don't you think it's pretty good?"

When Miyano Akemi's name was mentioned, Asakawa Yu could clearly see that she was happy, but he didn't know why.

While everyone present was captivated by Asakawa Yu's fluent Chinese pronunciation, only one person acted somewhat strangely—that person was Pu Siqinglan.

When Asakawa Yu mentioned that he could speak Chinese, her expression clearly changed, but she quickly concealed it.

But Asakawa Yu saw all of this. He had just said that he could speak Chinese in order to test Pu Siqinglan, but he did not expect that she would be caught so easily.

He is not ready to arrest Pu Siqinglan right now. Putting aside everything else, he doesn't have a suitable reason for doing so, because he has no way to prove that she was the one who shot Kidd.

Therefore, he is prepared to adapt to the situation and decide when to act based on the circumstances.

"I think Miss Qinglan is about the same age as me, right?" As they chatted, the topic turned to age again.

"Yes, twenty-seven years old."

"Just as I thought, what month were you born?"

"May, May 5th."

"Really? I was born on May 3rd, just three days short."

After hearing their birthdays, Conan realized that he was similar to them, so he prepared to say, "Well, you two are just one thing away from me... umm!"

Just as Conan was about to speak, Asakawa Yu gave his hair a hard ruffle.

After brushing Asakawa Yu's hand off his head, Conan glared fiercely at Asakawa Yu, but upon seeing the meaningful look in her eyes, he immediately understood what was going on and quickly covered his mouth.

"Conan, what were you trying to say just now?" Ran couldn't help but ask when she saw Conan's strange behavior.

"N-nothing, hehe..."

It was so close, so very close, to arousing Xiaolan's suspicion!
