In the room where Xiaolan and Conan lived, Xiaolan, who had already put on her pajamas, checked the lock of the floor-to-ceiling window again before going to bed, and then she couldn't help but said to Conan, who was thinking in bed and had also put on his pajamas.
:
"Okay, now we can sleep peacefully."
"Sister Xiaolan, are you still scared?"
Seeing this, Conan couldn't help but ask a question.
"Haha, what are you talking about, Conan——"
Facing Conan's questioning words, Xiaolan couldn't help but pretend to smile:
"How could I be scared! Not to mention that the 'bandage weirdo' has fallen off the cliff, even if he is really still alive, I will greet him with my karate!"
"Uh-huh……"
Conan nodded helplessly in response to Xiaolan's harsh rhetoric, but he couldn't help but sigh in his heart - he really knows how to talk nonsense. When he was attacked in the forest, he was so scared...
"Okay, let's go to bed."
Hearing Conan's reaction, Xiaolan smiled, turned off the lights in the room, climbed into bed and covered herself with quilt to get ready to sleep.
"But, it's really strange."
Lying in bed, unable to sleep, Conan continued to think:
"Why did the 'Bandage Man' attack Xiaolan and Sonoko in the woods at the beginning, but the person he killed in the end was Miss Chikako? It was clear that when she was in the woods at the beginning, Miss Chikako was walking alone... and
"Why the 'Bandage Man' walked up to the second floor first is a bit strange. Could it be that he knew in advance that Miss Chikako happened to be alone in the room at that time?"
"Conan..."
While thinking about it, Xiaolan suddenly said:
"Let's sleep together!"
Turning around, she saw Xiaolan holding a pillow, getting up from her bed, coming to Conan's bedside, and said with some trepidation -
"Why... why!"
Getting up from the bed, Conan blushed and asked in surprise.
"Oh! Stop asking so many questions!"
I saw that Xiaolan did not respond directly to Conan's words. Instead, she lifted the quilt on Conan's bed and placed the pillow directly next to Conan's pillow. Then she got directly into Conan's bed, lay down, and grabbed the edge of the quilt with her hands.
With that said, Xiaolan, who was blushing slightly, closed her eyes and prepared to sleep.
In response to this, Conan blushed and lay on his back with his hands behind his head with a look of helplessness. He said helplessly - Hey, women are women, it's really troublesome... Well? Where did I think of just now...
Thinking about it, Conan listened to the soft breathing close to his ears and couldn't help but turn his head and look -
I saw Xiaolan's sleeping face calmly, her head tilted towards her side.
Her small lips were slightly open, and she was breathing evenly, and with a little sensitivity, Conan could feel the hot breath exhaled from Xiaolan's mouth blowing against his ears.
At the same time, the fragrance of the girl who had just taken a bath, which should be the fragrance of shower gel, was also attacking the tip of Conan's nose.
This made Conan blush for a moment, and he tried his best to turn his head away from looking at Xiaolan's sleeping face, but the scene just now lingered in Conan's mind, and he had no intention to think about it -
"No...there is no way to think..."
Closing his eyes silently, Conan thought to himself:
"Forget it, that 'bandage weirdo' is probably really a murderer. Just leave this kind of matter to the police. It's not my turn yet... I'd better go to bed early..."
Thinking like this, Conan relaxed his mind and really prepared to sleep. However, because Xiaolan and himself were in the same quilt, the temperature of the two people still made it impossible for Conan to completely settle down and sleep peacefully.
However, at this moment, there was a knock on the door of the room——
"Dong dong dong——"
"Huh? Who is it? In the middle of the night..."
Hearing a knock on the door, Xiaolan, who seemed to have fallen asleep just now, couldn't help but be awakened by the sound. She rubbed her eyes and murmured in confusion.
Conan on the side seemed to be a little guilty. After hearing the knock on the door, he was startled and then froze on the spot without making any move.
Turning on the light switch in the room, Xiaolan got up from the bed, came to the door, opened the locked door, looked up, but saw no one outside the door——
"No! Brother Gao Yuan ran out just now! He hasn't come back yet!"
Suddenly, Xiao Lan heard Xiao Ai's anxious words coming from underneath her. So, Xiao Lan suddenly lowered her head and saw Xiao Ai looking up at her anxiously, and said very nervously.
"What!"
Hearing this, Xiaolan immediately exclaimed.
But soon, Xiaolan realized something, and immediately squatted down, pressed her hands on Xiaoai's shoulders and comforted:
"Don't worry! Don't worry! Sister will find a way!"
With that said, Xiaolan immediately ran out of the room and started knocking on the doors of other rooms, intending to wake everyone up.
"Haiyuan! What did you just say!"
After finally recovering from his daze, Conan jumped out of bed nervously when he heard what Xiao Ai had just said to Xiao Lan. He walked up to Xiao Ai with a serious face and asked loudly -
"Ah, what a lucky little pervert!"
However, facing Conan's nervous inquiry, Xiao Ai's expression suddenly became much calmer. She looked at the two pillows placed on Conan's bed and seemed to have understood the situation in the room before.
"Why?"
Hearing Xiao Ai suddenly say this, Conan couldn't help but be stunned. He looked at Xiao Ai with no trace of worry in front of him with some embarrassment, and then he seemed to realize something -
"Is it possible..."
Seeing that Conan didn't directly respond to his topic, Xiao Ai just rolled his eyes at Conan, then leaned into Conan's ear, whispered a few words, and then continued to pretend to be anxious and nervous, as if he was about to cry.
, came to the corridor outside the house, and followed Xiaolan to call everyone in the house——
"He's really good at acting, this guy..."
Seeing Xiao Ai's sudden change of expression, Conan couldn't help but roll his eyes at her and murmured:
"Who was she before?"
…
"What happened?"
Soon, everyone was called out by Xiaolan's knocking on the door, and they couldn't help but walked out of the room, looking a little sleepy. Ohta Masaru asked impatiently first.
"Mr. Akechi is missing!"
Xiaolan replied with a serious face.
"What! Mr. Akechi!"
Suzuki Ayako was shocked when she heard this.
"Just now, brother Gao Yuan saw a figure outside the window, so he chased him out, but he hasn't come back yet!"
Tears flowed from the corners of her eyes, Xiao Ai said anxiously.
