112 Knock on the door
"Click-"
In the room where Xiaolan and Conan lived, Xiaolan, who had already changed into pajamas, checked the lock of the floor-to-ceiling window again before going to bed, and couldn't help but say to Conan, who was thinking in bed and had already changed into pajamas:
"Alright, now we can sleep peacefully."
"Sister Xiaolan, are you still scared?"
Seeing this, Conan couldn't help but ask rhetorically.
"Hehe, what are you talking about, Conan-"
Faced with Conan's questioning words, Xiaolan couldn't help but pretend to smile and said:
"How could I be afraid! Not to mention that the 'bandage freak' has fallen off a cliff, even if he is really alive, I will greet him with my karate! β
"Uh-huh......"
Conan nodded helplessly in response to Xiaolan's stiff-mouthed words, but he couldn't help but sigh in his heart - he really knows how to talk big, and when the forest is attacked, he is obviously scared like something......
"Alright, let's go to bed."
Hearing Conan's reaction, Ran smiled, turned off the lights in the room, and climbed into the bed to cover the quilt and get ready for bed.
"It's really weird, though."
Lying on the bed, Conan, who couldn't sleep, continued to think:
"Why did the 'Bandage Monster' attack Ran and the garden in the woods in the first place, but the person who killed it was Miss Chikako? Obviously, when she was in the woods at the beginning, Miss Chikako was walking alone...... Moreover, it was also a little strange why the 'bandage freak' would walk up to the second floor first, could it be that he knew in advance that Miss Chikako happened to be alone in the room at that time? β
"Conan ......"
Just as she was thinking, Xiaolan suddenly said loudly:
"Let's sleep together!"
Turning his head to look, he saw Xiaolan holding the pillow, getting up from his bed, coming to Conan's bedside, and said with some twist-
"For ...... Why! β
Getting up from the bed, Conan asked in surprise with a blushing face.
"Oops! Don't ask so much! β
I saw that Xiaolan did not respond to Conan's words head-on, but lifted the quilt on Conan's bed, and directly put the pillow on the side of Conan's pillow, and then went directly into Conan's quilt, lay down, grabbed the edge of the quilt with her hand, and covered it to her neck-
"You can't be scared, right?"
Seeing this, Conan couldn't help but say.
"Don't ask!"
A little shy, Xiaolan said, "Good night, Conan......"
As she spoke, Xiaolan, who was blushing slightly, closed her eyes and prepared to sleep.
In this regard, Conan blushed, lay down on his back with his hands behind his head helplessly, and said helplessly in his heart - hey, women are women, it's really troublesome...... Kindness? Where did I think of it......
Thinking about it, Conan listened to the sound of soft breathing close to his ears, and couldn't help but turn his head to look-
I saw Xiaolan's quiet sleeping face, with her head tilted sideways, facing her side.
Her small lips were slightly open, and she breathed evenly, and with a little sensing, Conan could feel the heat coming out of Xiaolan's mouth, blowing in his ears.
At the same time, the fragrance of the girl's body, which had just finished taking a shower and should have been shower gel, was also invading the tip of Conan's nose.
This made Conan a little red for a while, and he turned his head as hard as he could, no longer looking at Xiaolan's sleeping face, but the scene just now had lingered in Conan's mind, and he didn't have the heart to think about it at all-
"No...... There is no way to think about ......"
Silently closing his eyes, Conan thought to himself:
"Forget it, that 'bandage freak' is probably really a murderer. It's good to leave this kind of thing to the police, and it's not my turn to come out...... Let's go to bed early......"
Thinking like this, Conan emptied his mind and really prepared to go to bed - but, because Xiaolan was in the same bed quilt as him, the temperature of the two people still made Conan unable to completely settle down and sleep peacefully.
However, at this moment, there was a knock on the door of the roomβ
"Knock knockβ"
"Huh? Who's the ...... in the middle of the night?"
Hearing the knock on the door, Xiaolan, who seemed to have fallen asleep just now, couldn't help but be woken up by this sound, rubbed her eyes, and couldn't help muttering in confusion.
Conan, on the side, seemed to be a little weak-hearted, and after hearing the knock on the door, he was actually startled, and then he was stunned on the spot, without any movement.
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 didn't see anyone outside the door-
"Oh no! Brother Gao Yuan ran out just now! Haven't come back yet! β
Suddenly, Xiaolan heard Xiao Ai's anxious words, coming from underneath. So, Xiao Lan lowered her head a little suddenly, and saw Xiao Ai looking up at herself anxiously, and said very nervously.
"What!"
Hearing this, Xiaolan immediately exclaimed.
But soon, Xiaolan realized something, so she immediately squatted down, pressed Xiao Ai's shoulders with both hands and comforted:
"Don't worry! Don't worry! My sister will figure it out! β
With that, Xiaolan immediately ran out of the room and began to knock on the doors of other rooms, intending to wake everyone up.
"Gray Plains! What did you just say! β
Finally reacting from the trance just now, Conan heard what Xiao Ai said to Xiao Lan just now, and couldn't help jumping off the bed nervously, walked up to Xiao Ai with a serious face, and asked loudly-
"Ah, what a lucky little pervert!"
However, in the face of Conan's nervous inquiry, Xiao Ai's expression suddenly calmed down a lot, and he looked at the two pillows on Conan's bed, as if he had understood the situation in the room before.
"Huh?"
Hearing Xiao Ai suddenly say this, Conan couldn't help but be stunned, and looked at Xiao Ai with some embarrassment without a trace of worry in front of him, and then seemed to realize something-
"It's hard to ......"
Seeing that Conan didn't respond positively to his topic just now, Xiao Ai just glanced at Conan, and then leaned into Conan's ear, and after whispering a few words, he 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-
"It's really good at acting, this guy ......"
Seeing Xiao Ai's face change at this moment, Conan couldn't help but glance at her and muttered:
"Who the hell was she before?"
β¦β¦
"What's going on?"
Soon, everyone was called by Xiaolan's knock on the door, and they couldn't help but walk out of the room, looking a little sleepy, Ota Katsu first asked a little impatiently.
"Mr. Wise is gone!"
Xiaolan replied with a serious face.
"What! Mr. Wise! β
Ayako Suzuki 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, and Xiao Wai said with an anxious face.
