Conan: Ran turns into an elementary school student and calls me dad.

Chapter 136 You really shot?

Lin Xiuyi and Vermouth pointed guns at each other, their faces extremely grim.

Clearly, no one expected things to turn out this way.

After a brief standoff, Lin Xiuyi was the first to lower his gun.

"Chris, stop fooling around, I really need to talk to you."

"Hmph, you wanted to talk to me? You were just bullying me like that?"

Vermouth bit her red lips in embarrassment and anger, and then, to Lin Xiuyi's astonishment, she suddenly pulled the trigger!

……

At the villa in 2-chome, Judy sat on the edge of the bed, hesitated for a while, and then decided to give a truthful report on the situation in Japan.

After informing his superior James that Akemi Miyano had appeared and might be being hunted down by the Black Organization.

Judy stood expressionless by the window. She knew that in a few days, Shuichi Akai would receive the news and come to Japan.

Unfortunately, he didn't come for her.

After fretting for a while, Judy felt a bit hungry, so she went out to find something to eat.

But as she reached the top of the stairs, she heard two voices. It was Ran and Nami standing on the stairs.

"Nami-neechan, where's my dad?" Ran asked疑惑地, standing above. "And Mom, Uncle Li Long, why aren't they home?"

"this……"

Lin Nami, also known as Yukiko, paused for a moment.

Fortunately, she is also an actress, so controlling facial expressions is a basic skill for her.

She stubbornly maintained her composure, not letting Xiaolan notice anything amiss.

"Master has invited Madam out for dinner. Li Long and the others have probably gone out to run errands as Master instructed."

"Out to eat? Why aren't you back yet?" Xiaolan frowned in confusion. "Is nothing really wrong? I felt like Dad's expression was a bit off earlier."

"It's really nothing," Lin Namei said with a smile, trying to comfort her. "It's probably because the master and madam's date was disturbed last night, so after dinner today they went somewhere together to make up for the disappointment last night."

"Is that so?" Xiaolan muttered.

"Don't worry, Miss Lan, go back to sleep now. When you wake up tomorrow morning, you'll see Master and Madam." Lin Naimei smiled and patted Lan's head.

Xiao Lan forced herself to keep from slapping the beautiful cook's hand away.

She also knew that, in other people's eyes, she was just a seven-year-old girl.

There were many things I simply couldn't tell her, so I could only turn around and go back to my bedroom with no other option.

Watching Ran's retreating figure, Yukiko couldn't help but sigh.

"Shuichi, bring Eri back quickly. Hopefully, that guy won't go too far."

In this corner, Judy leaned against the wall, her expression unusually grave.

She hadn't expected that just by staying in the room and reporting the situation to her superiors, so many problems would arise outside.

Because of what happened this afternoon, Judy naturally didn't think that the disappearance of Lin Xiuyi and the other bodyguards in the house was a normal thing.

What also bothered her was Lin Nami's words.

"Shuichi, bring Eri back quickly."

How come the cook, who was only hired yesterday, is suddenly being addressed with such affectionate terms by Lin Xiuyi and Fei Yingli?

Could it be that this woman knew the boss and his wife before?

But if that's the case, why would she hide her identity and sneak into this house?

Moreover, according to what Lin Nami just said, what does it mean to bring Eri back quickly?

Could it be that something happened to Eri Kisaki, which is why Hideaki Hayashi went out with his bodyguards to look for her?

But who would cause trouble for Eri Kisaki?

Could it be that Vermouth kidnapped Eri out of jealousy?

Judy's mind was racing, but because she didn't know the specifics of the situation, she didn't know what to do for the moment.

She could only wait until there was no more noise in the hallway before quietly returning to her bedroom.

……

"Slurp!"

A jet of water suddenly shot out from the dark muzzle of the gun, spraying Lin Xiuyi's face directly.

Lin Xiu was stunned for a moment: "This...it's actually a fake gun?"

"How is it? Do you like the gift I prepared for you?"

Vermouth, seeing Lin Xiuyi's stunned expression, couldn't help but laugh. "Idiot, why would I point a real gun at you?"

As she spoke, Vermouth reached into her clothes and pulled out a small pistol, which she then tossed onto the table beside her.

"Snap!"

The pistol slammed heavily onto the table; judging from the sound alone, it was clearly a real gun.

Holding the water gun in her hand, Vermouth suddenly felt playful and shot Lin Xiuyi several times.

The witch didn't stop playing until she had soaked him from head to toe.

At that moment, she remembered the pistol that Lin Xiuyi had been holding up. She reached out and snatched it from his hand, only to find that it was a real gun!

"Lin Xiuyi, you bastard! You actually pointed a real gun at me!"

Vermouth angrily punched Lin Xiuyi several times.

"This is just something I use for self-defense, it's not specifically for you!" Lin Xiuyi quickly apologized.

Regardless, Vermouth refused to point a real gun at him earlier.

However, Lin Xiuyi, in a moment of impulsiveness, took out his real weapon.

From this perspective, Lin Xiuyi is indeed in the wrong.

"Hmph, I trusted you so much for nothing."

Vermouth, her face dark, tossed the gun back to Lin Xiuyi.

"I trusted you so much, and you treated me like this?"

Vermouth finished speaking with a stern face, jumped out of bed, and began packing her things. After picking up the miniature pistol she had just tossed onto the table, she prepared to leave.

Actually, she knew she was being somewhat unreasonable.

But today's meeting was an accident.

If Vermouth hadn't misunderstood the relationship between Hayashi Hideichi and Miyano Akemi, she wouldn't have rashly come to see Hayashi Hideichi.

Thinking back to when we parted last time, I was so sure that we would break up, but now I've taken the initiative to come see him.

Vermouth felt a little embarrassed.

Seeing that staying with Lin Xiuyi would inevitably rekindle their old feelings, Vermouth had no choice but to make up a reason, using the fact that "Lin Xiuyi actually pointed a real gun at her" to convince herself first, and then she wanted to leave as soon as possible.

Unexpectedly, Lin Xiuyi refused to let her leave and blocked the doorway.

"What else do you have to say?" Vermouth sneered.

"I really didn't mean it just now," Lin Xiuyi said, looking at the sulking witch in front of her. "Besides, you've been hiding a lot of things from me too."

"What do you mean?" Vermouth's gaze instantly turned even colder.

Seeing that she still refused to tell her the truth, Lin Xiu felt a little annoyed and impulsively blurted it out.

"Chris, or should I call you by another name, Sharon?"

Lin Xiuyi spoke with a stern face, enunciating each word clearly.

"Actually, I've known your true identity for a long time, Chris. You and Sharon have always been the same person, haven't you!"
