Conan: Top succubus, crazy CP

Chapter 26: Confused Xiaolan

"Ms. Yuko, can I borrow a light from you?"

Hanyu Kusunoki raised the corner of his mouth slightly, revealing a polite smile and asked softly.

Yuko Ikezawa, who had just walked out of the bathroom, strode to the sofa and sat down, crossing her legs with a look of disdain.

Hearing Hanyu Kusunoki's request, her eyes fell on his handsome face that always kept smiling. A ripple appeared in her heart and her cheeks turned slightly red.

"Give."

Without saying a word, Yuko Ikezawa picked up a lighter that looked like the Statue of Liberty from the table next to her, quickly handed it to Hanyu Kusunoki, and helped him light it.

"Haha, Ms. Yuko, didn't you say you've never been here before? You just ran straight to the bathroom with ease, and there was this lighter that was hard to detect from the outside, how did you know it..."

Hanyu Kusunoki chuckled, staring straight at Ikezawa Yuko with an inexplicable light flashing in his eyes.

Kogoro Mori and Juzo Megure on the side also came to their senses: "Yes! How do you know so much about this place?" They both echoed in unison, their eyes also focused on Yuko Ikezawa, full of confusion and questioning.

Faced with the sudden questioning from everyone, Ikezawa Yuko's face instantly became flustered, and beads of sweat even began to appear on her forehead. She hurriedly tried to explain: "Uh... that... actually, it's because a friend of mine has a similar lighter at home... so I'm more familiar with it..."

However, Yuko Ikezawa's stammering and incoherent explanation is somewhat hard to believe.

"This guy has such a keen eye for observation!" Conan thought to himself.

"I can't show off too much in front of this guy Hanyu Kusunoki from now on." Conan's heart tightened because he had only just begun to see the clues to this evidence.

"Inspector Megure, can you please allow me to talk to Miss Yuko for a few minutes?" Hanyu Kusunoki said calmly.

"Well, okay." Seeing this, Megure Jusan knew that continuing to ask would not lead to any results, and since Hanyu Kusunoki took the initiative to ask to talk to Ikezawa Yuko, perhaps he could get some clues from her. So, Megure Jusan nodded and agreed to Hanyu Kusunoki's request.

Hanyu Kusunoki walked up to Ikezawa Yuko and stopped.

He lowered his head slightly and gazed at Ikezawa Yuko who was sitting on the sofa with a condescending look.

At this moment, Yuko Ikezawa was no longer as arrogant as she was at the beginning. Instead, her face was filled with fear and anxiety.

"Do you have anything to say?" Ikezawa Yuko tried to remain calm, but her voice was clearly trembling. "I've already told you, I've never been here!"

Faced with Hanyu Kusunoki's heart-pounding smile, Ikezawa Yuko seemed a little at a loss. She tried hard to stay calm, but the fear in her heart surged into her heart like a tide.

"Ms. Yuko, Ms. Yoko asked us to come here today because she hopes we can help investigate something. She has been receiving silent phone calls and threatening letters recently, which makes her very scared and troubled. Now that the police are here, why not ask the police to help contact the telecommunications company to see if they can trace the source of these calls, and also check the address from which the threatening letters were sent. What do you think of this approach?" Hanyu Kusunoki asked calmly.

Yuko Ikezawa widened her eyes and looked at Hanyu Kusunoki with horror, and stammered, "What...what are you talking about? I...I don't understand at all." Her hands began to tremble unconsciously.

Hanyu Kusunoki raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a playful smile, and then said slowly: "Since these things have nothing to do with Ms. Yuko, then after we find out the truth, should we inform the media about this matter? Let the general public also understand the situation. Do you think this is a good idea?"

"no, do not want!!"

Yuko Ikezawa screamed, her face turned pale, and a layer of fine beads of sweat appeared on her forehead.

She knew very well in her heart that she was the one who did all these things.

If it were exposed, she would immediately go from being a high-profile superstar to being the target of public criticism, and would be spurned and criticized by people.

"In that case, Ms. Yuko, please tell us everything you know!"

After saying this, Hanyu Kusunoki stood up, turned around and walked out.

At this time, Ikezawa Yuko had only one thought in her mind: This man is simply a devil! He knows everything about her heart, and she has no privacy in front of him.

Seeing Megure Juzo walking towards her, Ikezawa Yuko could no longer maintain her pride and began to confess everything honestly.

"Xiaolan, let's go out and get some fresh air. Let your uncle take care of it."

Hanyu Nan ignored the conversation of the people behind him and walked straight to Xiaolan and said. After speaking, he lowered his head and his eyes fell on Ayumi who was tightly held by Xiaolan.

"Ayumi, do you want to go for a walk with your big brother?"

"Yeah! Big brother was really cool just now!" Ayumi's face flushed, she nodded excitedly, admiration flashing in her eyes.

Hanyu Nan rubbed Ayumi's little head, then he and Xiaolan took Ayumi to the corridor outside.

“Wow, it’s so windy.”

As soon as she stepped out of the door, Ayumi's hair was rustling in the strong wind, and Xiaolan quickly hugged Ayumi in her arms.

"Nan, the night view of the entire Tokyo from here is really beautiful." Xiaolan leaned on the railing, looking into the distance, intoxicated by the bright lights in the distance.

"Yes, it's a high-rise apartment after all." Hanyu Kusunoki agreed softly with a smile on his face.

His eyes also fell outside the window, but unlike Xiaolan, the latter was admiring the charming night view of the city, while he was admiring Xiaolan who was holding Ayumi and lying on the railing to enjoy the breeze.

At this time, Xiaolan's hair fluttered in the wind, flying freely, revealing a different kind of messy beauty.

Perhaps feeling Hanyu Nan's fiery gaze, Xiaolan's cheeks flushed slightly. She turned her head and asked shyly:

"By the way, Nan, how did you know that Miss Yuko smokes?"

Facing the questioning looks from the two, Hanyu Kusunoki smiled and explained, "It's nothing special. Just now, when Ms. Yuko walked by me, I faintly smelled a faint smell of cigarettes. Of course, it could also be emitted from other people. However, later I noticed that the back of Ms. Yuko's right index finger was a little yellow, which was obviously different from the skin color of other fingers. This situation usually occurs in people who smoke for a long time."

After listening to Hanyu Kusunoki's analysis, Xiaolan nodded in sudden enlightenment and said admiringly: "I see, Nan, you are really observant!"

Ayumi on the side clapped her hands and shouted excitedly: "Big brother is so awesome!"

"No, no, I learned this from Uncle Maori. Ayumi, don't always let Sister Xiaolan hold you!" Hanyu Kusunoki said as he took Ayumi and held her in his arms.

Xiaolan stared quietly at Hanyu Kusunoki's handsome profile, and a complex emotion surged in her heart.

I thought to myself: If Shinichi were here, perhaps he would still stay at the crime scene and concentrate on investigating the case, instead of walking out of the room like Hanyu Kusunoki did to keep me company, communicate with me and explain so many things.
