Chapter 304: Say Thank You to Us, Idiot

Mao Lilan suddenly spoke, Ling Cheng and the others turned around to answer.

"Yes, I've seen him before."

Ling Cheng pushed away the hand on his head and silently fixed his hair. Then he and Conan were pulled over by Kudo Yukiko and hugged and rubbed on the head.

Yukiko: "Yeah, I saw them when I went back to Japan. Ling Cheng and Conan are still so cute."

Ling Cheng did not resist. There was no other way. He had to first eliminate Xiaolan's suspicion of Conan. Xiaolan pointed at Conan and said to Kudo Shinichi beside him:

"But isn't Conan Shinichi, and this guy over here?"

"what!?"

"Kudo Shinichi" made an unbelievable sound and pointed at Conan and said:

"Are you dreaming? How could I be this little ghost? No, I'm already here. What are you thinking about, Xiaolan? Are you still asleep?"

Xiaolan looked at him hesitantly,

"But, but how come Conan looks so much like Shinichi, and he has that deductive ability, and he knows a lot of weird things."

Yukiko immediately explained:

"Ah, that's because Conan is a distant relative of ours. He's the grandson of my grandfather's brother's daughter's cousin's uncle's uncle."

Ling Cheng stretched his head out from her arms and continued:

"I met Yukiko-sister when Mr. Zero brought us out before, so I know her."

Mao Lilan still didn't understand:

"But, he said before that he was a relative of Dr. Agasa's family."

Yukiko remained calm.

"That's right, Dr. Agasa and I are distant relatives."

"Kudo Shinichi" also joined in the fun and said:

"Besides, this kid doesn't look like me at all. I used to be much more handsome than him!"

Conan glared at him fiercely, but "Kudo Shinichi" held his head with one hand and he was unable to resist. This time he could finally avenge the ball he had hit before.

Yukiko also reached out and pinched Conan's face.

"I remember your mother's name was Wen Dai, right?"

Conan immediately pretended to be good and responded with a smile. Yukiko stood up, and Ling Cheng and Conan finally came out of her arms.

Although the truth seems to be in front of Xiaolan, she still has doubts.

"Then why is Conan able to make such amazing deductions?"

As soon as these words were spoken, Conan and Yukiko broke out in cold sweats. Ling Cheng laughed at them in his heart, saying, "I'll let you show off, be arrogant, but if you reveal your identity, you're done for."

"Kudo Shinichi": "Of course I taught you well, right, little... Conan."

Conan nodded in disgrace, and Ling Cheng took advantage of him.

"And what about me? I took you to read the newspaper and explain the case every day, and taught you so much trivia. Don't I have any credit?"

Conan: You two want to take advantage of me, right?

He thought so in his heart, but couldn't show it on his face, so Conan could only nod in agreement.

"Yes, a lot, thanks to Brother Xinyi and Brother Lingcheng, I love brothers the most!"

Well said. Ling Cheng nodded and patted him on the shoulder. "Kudo Shinichi" did not hesitate to ruffle his hair, obviously wanting to take advantage of him to the fullest extent.

“Eh… is that so?”

Xiaolan thought about it, then accepted this statement, and said to "Kudo Shinichi" with her hands on her hips:

"Really? Conan is so young, why did you tell him so much nonsense? It made me misunderstand."

"Kudo Shinichi": "How would I know that someone would suspect that an elementary school student is someone else's rejuvenation? This can be misunderstood. It's because you have such a strong imagination, Xiaolan."

"Wait, wait, where have you been all this time? Why don't you come back? Why don't you want to meet me?"

Xiaolan grabbed Kudo Shinichi's wrist, as if afraid that he would run away, and Kudo Shinichi hurriedly explained.

"Well, didn't I tell you? I'm busy solving a case. I've taken a long vacation from school and can't come back."

Mao Lilan: "So why are you back now?"

"Kudo Shinichi": "I came back with my mom, but I have to leave soon. I'm really busy over there. Sorry, Xiaolan, but I promise to call you on time."

"Did you say it wrong just now? It should be a young and beautiful mother, right?"

Yukiko rushed in unexpectedly, put her arm around his neck, and shook his head with her fist. "Kudo Shinichi" screamed in pain.

Ran Mao Li watched their interaction and indeed, the person in front of her was Shinichi.

"That's it... But, you know I have a lot to say to you?"

After saying this, she saw Yukiko was still there, and Ran, who had just remembered, was so ashamed that she wanted to run away, but was caught by "Kudo Shinichi". He immediately put away his frivolous look and said seriously:

"Xiaolan, just tell me what you want to say. Even if I'm not by your side, it's okay to tell me over the phone. Just like before, I will try my best to solve your troubles and anxieties."

After saying "Kudo Shinichi", he seemed to remember that he had performed it before, and immediately withdrew his hand and scratched his face, pretending to be very busy. Mouri Ran also blushed and felt embarrassed by his words.

Conan was furious. Wasn't this guy here to help him? Why was he teasing Xiaolan here? Who is this guy?

Ling Cheng nudged Conan with his elbow as if to watch the fun and whispered:

"Learn from her. Sister Xiaolan is obviously very fond of this. It seems like it would be difficult for you to say more nice things to her."

Mao Lilan tried hard to get out of her embarrassment and was about to say something when Conan came over and pulled her sleeve.

"Sister Xiaolan, it's already late..."

Her stomach also cooperated and made a rumbling sound of hunger, and Mao Lilan finally remembered her father who was enduring hunger at home.

"Oh no, Dad is still waiting at home and we haven't had dinner yet. Sorry, Conan, let's go back, Ling Cheng should come with us."

Mao Lilan wanted to pull Conan away, but Yukiko pulled Conan back and said:

"Wait, Xiaolan, let Conan stay and live in my house for the next few days."

Mao Lilan hesitated for a moment.

"You should ask Mr. Lingshi about this. I can't decide for myself."

Yukiko was just saying she would ask when Ling Cheng shook his phone.

"It's okay, I just asked, it's okay."

Mao Lilan: "Then Ling Cheng, will you come with me? I can take you home."

Ling Cheng glanced at "Kudo Shinichi" and then said:

"No thanks, Xiaolan. It's rare to meet a famous high school detective. I want to ask a question. I just asked Uncle Zero Hour."

"Is that so? Then I'll go first, otherwise Dad will be too hungry and go out to find something to eat."

"Okay, bye, Sister Xiaolan."

"Goodbye, Sister Xiaolan."

After saying goodbye, Xiaolan looked at "Kudo Shinichi" again, and the latter also raised his hand to say goodbye. Xiaolan remembered something and ran away.

The group stopped only when they could no longer see anyone or hear footsteps. Conan glared at "Kudo Shinichi".

"Who are you?!"

"Kudo Shinichi" waved his hands and shrugged.

"Is this your attitude towards your benefactor?"

Conan looked at him unkindly, Ling Cheng went over to explain to him,

"This is the teacher I found for me at midnight. He's here to help me out at short notice. Just thank us, idiot!"

Conan snorted, but still said thank you obediently, and then asked another person.

"Then why did you come back, Mom? Don't say you came back to help me. It's not because you had a fight with Dad, is it?"

"How dare you talk to your savior like that? I did help you."

Conan turned his head and said, "Huh, he had already apologized anyway."

"You should have told Dad beforehand before coming."

"Of course I didn't tell him."

"Hey!"

The mother and son started to quarrel despite the presence of others. Conan was once again hugged and rubbed against by Yukiko, which made Ling Cheng shake his head.

I won't disturb the mother and son's time together.
