The most noticeable thing is the dark red kiss mark on the right side of the neck, which is particularly eye-catching on the pale skin, like the mark left by a beast grabbing the throat.

Shen Yuan subconsciously touched that place and felt a slight tingling sensation at his fingertips.

The other side of the bed was a mess.

The pillow fell askew on the side of the bed, and the sheets were wrinkled with obvious dents - it was obvious that someone had slept here not long ago.

There were a few strands of silver-white hair on the black silk sheets, which shone with a cold luster in the morning light.

The phone is still vibrating persistently.

Shen Yuan struggled to stand up, and the soreness in his waist made him gasp.

Seeing that the caller ID was Kogoro Mouri, Shen Yuan answered the phone, "Hello, Brother Mouri..." His voice was still hoarse from the love affair.

He casually grabbed a shirt from beside his pillow and put it on. When the collar slipped down, fresh teeth marks on his collarbone were revealed.

Kogoro Maori on the other end of the phone was obviously stunned for a moment: "Brother Shen, you haven't woken up yet?" Shen Yuan rubbed his temples and glanced at the alarm clock on the bedside - 9:10 in the morning.

The bed on the other side was already cold, with only a faint smell of gunpowder remaining.

"It's time to wake up!" He cleared his throat and straightened his shirt collar, "I'm not going to sleep anymore.

What is it? "

"I received an invitation from Yoko Okino to be a guest on her show!" Maori Kogoro's voice was full of excitement. "I'm going to Nichimi TV for a recording at noon. Are you interested in coming with me?" Shen Yuan thought of Mizunashi Rena who worked at Nichimi TV. "Great, I haven't seen the recording site of the show yet!" He answered in a light tone, "I'm very interested.

I'll come find you guys after breakfast!" He paused and added, "Do you mind if I bring Lightning with me?" After receiving a positive answer, Shen Yuan hung up the phone and went to the bathroom to wash up.

Then he saw his miserable appearance in the mirror—there was an obvious purple mark on the right side of his neck, which was particularly eye-catching against his fair skin.

Then the collarbone, chest and arms.

"Gin, that bastard..." Shen Yuan cursed softly and touched the mark with his fingertips.

He had just had a few drinks last night to cheer himself up, but that man was leaving marks all over his body like a wolfdog. Gin never had that habit before.

He found a large Band-Aid to cover the hickey on his neck.

As for the collarbone and arms, they can only be covered with long-sleeved shirts.

Shen Yuan buttoned his shirt while complaining in his mind: Fortunately, we are indoors and there is air conditioning, otherwise, if I wear a long-sleeved shirt in the middle of summer, I would be afraid that the little detective would be curious.

After cleaning up, Shen Yuan came to the living room. The scene here made him raise his eyebrows - Lightning was having a lot of fun playing with his new pet.

That was the giant running wheel that Gin brought a few days ago. It was silver all over and had a power generation function.

When the cheetah runs to a certain speed, the roller lights up blue and plays music.

Lightning was so excited that he would run it twice every day before giving up.

When it saw Shen Yuan coming out, it immediately braked suddenly, jumped off the running wheel nimbly, circled around its owner, and made a coquettish sound of "Awoo awoo" in its throat.

"It seems your sponsor has fed you enough!" Shen Yuan squatted down and rubbed Lightning's bloated belly, "Don't run anymore, take a rest.

I'll take you out to play after dinner!" He went to the kitchen to prepare a hot breakfast, but found a bacon sandwich, two slices of ham and a glass of milk already on the table.

There was a note next to the sandwich with familiar sharp handwriting on it: [Microwave for 30 seconds] Shen Yuan picked up the note and chuckled, "Thank you for your hard work, Mr. Killer!" He put the food in the microwave to heat it up and quickly finished the simple breakfast.

When Shen Yuan finished rinsing his mouth, Lightning was already squatting obediently at the door, holding the leash in his mouth, and looking at him with ice-blue eyes full of anticipation.

"Let's go," Shen Yuan tied his shoelaces and patted the cheetah's head, "I'll take you to refresh the new map today!" Shen Yuan came to the underground garage with lightning, still driving the Lincoln Navigator L, then picked up Maori Kogoro and others and drove to Nichiren TV.

Conan was sitting in the back seat of the car. Suddenly, he noticed the conspicuous Band-Aid on Shen Yuan's neck in the rearview mirror. He asked Shen Yuan curiously, "Brother Shen, what's wrong with your neck?" Xiaolan also looked over when she heard it: "Yes, Brother Shen Yuan, are you hurt?" Her eyes fell on the large Band-Aid, and her brows frowned unconsciously.

Shen Yuan touched the spot where the band-aid was and said, "Ah, no, it's because I accompanied my boss to the temple fair at Sensoji Temple last night, and I got bit by a mosquito." He deliberately tilted his head to make the band-aid more conspicuous in the sunlight: "The mosquitoes there are particularly poisonous, and it itches badly.

I applied ointment and thought of putting a Band-Aid on the wound to prevent scratching!" He even pretended to scratch it twice through the Band-Aid. "But when I woke up this morning, I found it was even more swollen. It might be that I'm allergic to the mosquito toxin!" Xiaolan breathed a sigh of relief: "So that's how it is. Then it really will be better to put a Band-Aid on it!" When Lightning was led into the TV station by Shen Yuan, it caused a slight commotion. However, Maori Kogoro calmed the crowd, and some people took out their mobile phones to secretly take pictures of Lightning.

The TV station staff quickly came over and led them to the studio.

When passing through the corridor, Shen Yuan noticed the poster of Mizuno Rena hanging on the wall - this popular female anchor had a professional smile on her face, and her iconic blue cat eyes seemed to be able to see through the photo and into people's hearts.

The lights in the studio are bright, and Yoko Okino is communicating the process with the staff on the stage.

When she saw Kogoro Mouri and his group coming in, she immediately smiled sweetly and waved.

"Ms. Yoko!" Kogoro Mouri's expression changed instantly, his eyes turned into heart shapes, and he rushed forward in two steps, "It's such an honor to be on your show today!" Shen Yuan looked at the famous detective who instantly turned into a fanatical fan, and couldn't help but lean close to Xiaolan's ear: "Ms. Eri, don't you mind Mr. Mouri being like this?" Xiaolan's mouth twitched, and her eyes were vague: "My father is just a talker...but he doesn't dare to do anything in practice!" She paused for a moment, and her voice lowered a few decibels, "As for my mother...uh...she doesn't really want to care about my father's affairs..." Shen Yuan nodded in understanding, and didn't ask any more questions.

Lightning seemed to be very interested in the studio's lighting equipment, and was looking up at the huge soft boxes curiously.

Shen Yuan loosened the leash and let it move freely within a safe range - the well-trained cheetah knew what it could touch and what it could not touch.

After the recording of Maori Kogoro's program was finished, Maori Kogoro introduced Shen Yuan and Lightning to Okino Yoko, and Shen Yuan greeted them politely.

Yoko Okino warmly invited everyone to have lunch together.

Chapter 186 Exposed Sniper Mission 4

The TV station cafeteria - "It's so beautiful!" Yoko Okino looked at the lightning with shining eyes and couldn't help reaching out to touch the cheetah's head.

Lightning gracefully turned his head to avoid the attack, his silver-gray fur glistening like satin in the sunlight.

Yoko was not discouraged, but became even more excited.

She cut off a small piece of steak and tentatively handed it to Lightning: "Would you like to try this? It's very tender~" But Lightning was not interested. Instead, he concentrated on eating the Amuro brand's special venison jerky.

"Hahaha, Miss Yoko, Lightning is a very picky eater! He is very particular about the meat he eats!" Maori Kogoro, who had just been puffing and glaring, immediately seized the opportunity to show his courtesy and pushed his plate forward, "Feed me, I'm not picky at all!" Xiaolan's fists were clenched so hard that they made a creaking sound, and a clear "well" character appeared on her forehead.

Unfortunately, the lust-blinded Detective Maori was completely unaware of the approaching danger.

"Dad!" Xiaolan accurately hit her father's head with an iron fist, "Stop it! Stop acting like a creepy old man!"

"It hurts, it hurts!" Maori Kogoro complained aggrievedly, holding the freshly baked big bun on his head, "Xiaolan, why are you the same as your mother? Even the tone of your voice is so irritable..." Conan's mouth twitched, and some of his glasses fell off his nose. He laughed in his heart: Uncle, you are so brave to flirt with a female star in front of your daughter... Yoko Okino was stunned by this sudden family drama for a moment, then she covered her mouth and chuckled: "The way you two get along with each other is really interesting!"

"Ms. Yoko, I'm so sorry!" Xiaolan bowed with a red face, "My father's behavior just now has caused you trouble!" At this moment, a woman in a beige business suit stood beside their table.

"Ah, Reina!" Okino Yoko stood up happily. "You're here!" Maori Kogoro stared at the newcomer for a few seconds, then suddenly slammed the table. "Isn't this the anchor of the Sunday evening news?"

"Yes," Yoko Okino introduced with a smile, "This is my good friend, news anchor Ms. Rena Mizunoshi!" Rena Mizunoshi bowed slightly: "Sorry to bother you, Detective Maori, and everyone here!" Shen Yuan was lowering his head to stroke Lightning's hair, soothing Lightning's anxious look because of Rena Mizunoshi. There was a faint smile on the corner of his mouth. It seemed that Lightning could clearly distinguish beautiful people.

"It's like this," Mizunashi Rena folded her hands on her knees and sat across from Maori Kogoro. "Lately, someone has been ringing my doorbell every Saturday morning... and every time I open the door, there's no one there!" Maori Kogoro touched his chin. "Sound like a prank?"

"Not really!" Yoko Okino shook her head, "Reina said this situation has been going on for several months!" Rena Mizunashi nodded, and the wooly curly bangs on her forehead trembled slightly with her movements: "I tried to wait at the door at about the same time, and open the door immediately when the doorbell rang, but..." She spread her hands and said helplessly: "The corridor is always empty, I'm a little scared!" Soon, Yoko Okino left first because of work arrangements.

The group followed Rena Mizunashi to her apartment in Haido-cho.

This is an old-fashioned building with exterior stairs and corridors designed on the outside of the building and enclosed by metal railings.

"This design..." Maori Kogoro stood in the corridor and looked around, tapping his fingers on the metal railings. "There really is no place to hide!"

"Yes, that's why I'm troubled!" Rena Mizunashi opened the door, "Mr. Mori, please come in!" Just when everyone's attention was focused on the room, Conan quickly spit out the chewed gum, skillfully wrapped the micro eavesdropping device and transmitter in it, and then pretended to untie his shoelaces and stuck the "special chewing gum" to the outside of the door frame.

Shen Yuan saw Conan's series of skillful operations and complained in his heart, "Is this already considered a spy device? Conan is really good, it's getting more and more cruel."

However, Shen Yuan pretended not to see it and followed Maori Kogoro in.

In the living room, Rena Mizunashi held the coffee pot and filled it for everyone one by one. The rich aroma of coffee filled the living room.

After sitting down, she began to recount what had happened. "It started two months ago. Every Saturday morning around six, the doorbell would ring..." Her voice dropped a few notches. "Last month, I opened the door and found a glass jar with capsules inside!" Maori Kogoro's brows knitted together, and he put down his coffee cup. "Capsules? What kind of capsules?"

"Sleeping pills!" A trace of uneasiness flashed in Rena Mizunashi's blue cat eyes. "I asked a friend who studies medicine to confirm, and it's sleeping pills, a full one hundred pills!" Xiaolan covered her mouth: "This is terrible..." Conan's glasses reflected a cold light, and he asked seemingly innocently: "Sister Mizunashi, did anything special happen to you two months ago?" Rena Mizunashi stroked the rim of the coffee cup with her fingers: "Nothing, if I really want to say something has changed..." She thought for a moment, "I was transferred from "Good Morning 7" to "Evening News", and nothing else!"... The investigation was fruitless, and Kogoro Mouri suddenly slapped his thigh: "It's decided!" He stood up with full momentum, "We'll stay here tonight and wait, and catch him in the act tomorrow morning!" Shen Yuan raised his hand when he heard this: "Brother Mouri, I have to go back later!" He pointed to Lightning who was lying on the side, "This guy still wants to eat dinner!" Lightning raised his head at the right time, and his ice-blue eyes blinked innocently.

"Hmm...that's true!" Maori Kogoro crossed his arms in thought, and finally nodded, "Then Brother Shen, you go back first, and the rest of us will stay here!" He turned to Mizunashi Rena with a righteous look on his face, "We must catch this pervert who harasses single women!"

Chapter 187 Exposed Sniper Mission 5

After finishing the topic, everyone looked at each other in silence for a while. Rena Mizunashi stood up and began to organize the magazines and newspapers on the coffee table.

Xiaolan watched her curiously as she tied up the piles of publications with ropes: "Ms. Mizuno, what are you doing...?"

"Tomorrow is recycling day," Mizunashi Rena explained with a smile, neatly piling the bundled magazines at the door. "We need to sort out all these newspapers and magazines we've read!" Maori Kogoro glanced at the pile of publications and suddenly saw a book on the other side. "Isn't this 'Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde'?" He picked up the book and flipped through the cover. "I really miss it!"

"I read it when I was in junior high school," Xiaolan took over the conversation, rubbing her arms unconsciously, "I thought it was very scary at the time!" She turned her head to look at Conan beside her, "Conan, have you read this book?" Conan pushed his glasses and answered without hesitation: "Yes, I have.

The story is about the gentleman Dr. Jekyll who, after drinking the potion he prepared, split into the evil Mr. Hyde..." His voice was crisp and fluent, not like that of a primary school student at all, "Later, 'Jekyll and Hyde' became synonymous with 'dual personality' in psychology!" Rena Mizunashi's blue cat eyes widened slightly, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes, and then a hint of inquiry appeared: "You..." Suddenly, a big palm fell from the sky and pressed heavily on Conan's head.

Interrupting what Rena Mizunoshi was about to say.

"Stinky brat!" Maori Kogoro rubbed Conan's hair vigorously. "You don't study hard all day, just reading these extracurricular books!" He became more and more angry as he spoke, and pressed down again. "Amuro is right, your study attitude is indeed problematic!" Shen Yuan narrowed his eyes. Maori Kogoro's timing was too precise. Just now... his sudden action was to interrupt Mizunashi Rena and Conan, right? He had previously doubted whether Maori Kogoro knew about Conan's identity, but what happened just now made him extremely certain that Maori Kogoro should be playing dumb.

The corners of Shen Yuan's mouth rose slightly, and a hint of amusement flashed in his eyes: It's really... so interesting.

Mizuno Rena stood there in a daze, her train of thought interrupted by this sudden scolding.

By the time she came to her senses, Maori Kogoro had already started his second round of lecturing: "If tomorrow is Saturday, then today is Friday! You skipped school again?" He raised his fist and tapped Conan on the head. "How many times has this happened? Huh?" Conan finally realized that today was indeed Friday, but how could he have completely forgotten about going to school? He held his head, his glasses tilted to one side: "I, I forgot..." Shen Yuan rescued Conan from Maori Kogoro's "clutches" in time and rubbed his messy hair: "Brother Maori, you have to be patient when educating children. Violence can't solve problems!" Maori Kogoro curled his lips and crossed his arms: "If it doesn't hurt, this kid won't remember!" When Shen Yuan led Lightning out of Mizunashi Rena's house, dusk had already enveloped Haido Town.

The afterglow of the setting sun gave the tall buildings a golden edge. He stood downstairs of the apartment building and looked back at the windows of Mizunashi Rena's house. The glass reflected the light of the setting sun, making it impossible to see what was going on inside.

"Let's go, Lightning!" Shen Yuan tightened the leash, and the cheetah's silver-gray fur glowed in the twilight. "If you don't go back, your sponsor will be worried!" When Shen Yuan pushed open the door, the sensor light in the entrance hall lit up.

He looked up while changing his shoes, and then his whole body froze in place - under the warm yellow floor lamp in the living room, Gin had long silver hair draped over his silk pajamas like a waterfall, his long legs were crossed, and the collar of his black pajamas was slightly open, revealing a well-defined collarbone.

The most terrible thing was the pair of thin gold-rimmed glasses perched on his high nose bridge. The emerald eyes behind the lenses were raised from above the newspaper and scanned towards him.

Shen Yuan's breathing stagnated.

Oh no, it’s a heart-pounding feeling.

He subconsciously pressed his chest, as if this could calm his heart that was suddenly beating faster.

Gin's ascetic scholar's outfit, coupled with his stern face, was simply challenging his self-control.

Lightning squeezed past Shen Yuan's legs, and the silver-gray figure broke the stagnation of the moment.

Shen Yuan took a deep breath, forced himself to calm down, strode over, took off Gin's glasses, folded them and placed them on the coffee table.

"Boss, don't try to seduce me today!" He said unhappily, "I've decided to abstain from sex these few days!" Lightning sat aside and let out a "woof", slapping his tail on the carpet twice, as if to express his agreement.

Gin's fingers holding the newspaper paused slightly, then he put the newspaper down as if nothing had happened, as if the tempting scene just now had never existed, and changed the subject directly: "Why are you back so late?" Shen Yuan sat down at the other end of the sofa, the corners of his lips slightly raised, revealing a half-smile, "I went to visit Kil's house today!" He drawled out his voice, his tone full of excitement of sharing a secret.

Gin frowned slightly, and a hint of doubt flashed in his green eyes. It was obvious that Gin didn't understand how Shen Yuan was related to Kil.

This reaction made Shen Yuan smile even deeper.

"Today I went to Nichimi TV with Detective Maori..." Shen Yuan leaned comfortably on the sofa, stroking Lightning's head with his fingers from time to time, "Then Gil issued a commission to Detective Maori!" He paused deliberately, looking at Gin's expression: "It is said that someone rings the doorbell at her house every Saturday morning, but when you open the door, there is no one.

She's very scared and wants the detective to catch this 'bad guy'!" Gin's expression went blank for a moment, as if he was doubting his hearing.

Are members of an illegal organization afraid of the "bad guys"? And are they asking detectives for help?

Chapter 188 Exposed Sniper Mission 6

Shen Yuan admired Gin's rare surprised expression and continued to add fuel to the fire: "Boss, don't you think it's interesting that when they were about to carry out the mission, Kil suddenly had a connection with the little detective?" He scratched Lightning's chin, "And Lightning hates her very much!" Gin's eyes instantly darkened.

The aversion to lightning—they knew what it meant.

Someone from the US? CIA? FBI? The silver-haired killer tapped his fingertips unconsciously on the armrest of the sofa and sneered.

How many people are there in his team? Vodka, Chianti, Cohen, Kiel, Bourbon... Anyway, they're all either good-for-nothings or undercover agents.

Gin suddenly felt a little absurd. What sin had he committed in his past life that he had to lead such a group of "elites" in this life? "...What's going on?" He whispered to himself, with a rare sense of helplessness in his voice.

Shen Yuan finally couldn't help laughing out loud, and fell sideways on the sofa.

Lightning was startled by his sudden movement and jumped up and hid to the side.

"Don't be discouraged, boss," Shen Yuan wiped the tears of laughter from the corners of his eyes, "at least you still have me--" he deliberately dragged out the tone, "and Lightning!" In the early morning, Gin was half leaning on the back of the chair, his silver hair scattered on his shoulders, and his hands with distinct knuckles casually rested on the edge of the coffee cup.

The cuffs of his black shirt were loosely rolled up, and the pale blue veins on the inside of his wrists were faintly visible.

Shen Yuan sat opposite, his knife lazily sliding across the surface of the bacon, the grease leaving tiny reflections on the blade.

The porcelain plates occasionally made a slight knocking sound, mixed with the faint chirping of birds outside the window.

"Ding——" Gin's phone vibrated half a circle on the desktop, and Vermouth's group message popped up: [The mission investigation is completed and the plan has been formulated.

Everyone must gather at Black Label before 8 a.m. to assign specific actions.

Shen Yuan glanced at it, his eyes flashing with a gleam of anticipation: "What a coincidence," he shook his phone, "the little detective just sent a message saying that the case of the Kil family has been solved this morning, and they just left!" He deliberately dragged out the tone, "You say... if Kil rushes to the gathering now, will the little detective find out because of some accident? After all, the thing called 'fate' has been sending him clues about various mysterious organizations!" Gin drank a sip of coffee expressionlessly, and his green eyes under the silver hair swept over Shen Yuan's interested look.

Just by looking at this guy's expectant expression, he knew that there was a high probability that something unexpected would happen on this mission.

Fortunately, it was Vermouth who was in charge this time - at least what happened later had nothing to do with him.

After breakfast, Shen Yuan hummed a tune and went into the bathroom.

The sound of running water was heard, and soon a silver-haired boy came out of the bathroom after tidying his clothes.

At this time, Gin had already prepared food for Lightning for the day.

Shen Yuan took out his cell phone and checked the time: "Seven twenty, we should leave!" He tilted his head and showed Monk's signature innocent smile, "I wonder if we can see any interesting scenes today?" In the morning light, a black Porsche 356A drove out of the garage and headed towards the Black Label bar.
