Conan: Life between Green Plum and Skyfall

Chapter 234 Yusaku: The blame falls from the sky!

That night, at the Maori office, someone knocked on the door.

"Who is this? The office is closed. If you have any requests, please come tomorrow... Yukiko?"

Looking at the familiar yet unfamiliar face outside the door, Mao Li was stunned for a moment and shouted in surprise.

"Eh? Aunt Yukiko, what are you doing here?!"

After hearing what her father said, Xiaolan also walked out of the kitchen curiously.

When she saw the smiling Yukiko, a hint of doubt appeared on her face.

"Haha, didn't I hear from Fumiyo that Conan was fostered by her at your house, Xiaolan, so I thought of coming over to see how he is living here."

Looking at Ran in front of her, Yukiko said with a smile. By the way, she also reached out and touched Conan's head twice.

"Conan, well, he's doing pretty well."

Looking at Yukiko in front of her, hearing her mention Fumiyo, and knowing that Conan was actually Shinichi, how could Xiaolan not know that the aunt last time was Yukiko in disguise.

"I didn't expect Aunt Yukiko to like dressing up as a fat lady!"

Xiaolan sighed in her heart and said a little embarrassedly.

How could she not be happy? She and Shinichi had been childhood sweethearts for so many years, and at most they had only ever held hands. But what happened? With the appearance of Conan, her relationship with him had directly taken a step forward!

"Oba-san Yukiko, what are you doing here?!"

Looking at Yukiko outside the door, Conan said nonchalantly. Well, this is one of the few opportunities for him to openly call out this old mother who likes to act young, so of course he has to seize this opportunity!

(╬◣д◢)

After hearing Conan's address to her, Yukiko's forehead was instantly bulging with blue veins. She glared at Conan fiercely, looking at the arrogant expression on his face, and thought to herself:

"Okay, Shin-chan, I was thinking of letting you finish your meal before borrowing you, but now it seems there's no need to be so kind to you!"

Looking at Conan with an arrogant look on his face, Yukiko raised the corners of her mouth slightly.

Conan saw this scene and felt something was wrong. No, why did she feel that Yukiko had come here with bad intentions?

Sure enough, Yukiko's next words made her feel very disappointed:

"Xiao Lan, there's one more thing. I need to borrow this child for a few days. Can you lend him to me? Don't worry, I'll return him safely in a couple of days!"

"? If it's Aunt Yukiko..."

Considering that Yukiko is Conan's mother, Xiaolan thought for a moment and nodded in agreement.

After hearing Xiaolan's words, Yukiko's expression froze for a moment:

"Call me sister! Also, since you agreed, I'll borrow this child~"

As she said that, Yukiko picked up Conan and prepared to walk outside.

"Yukiko-ah...Sister, um, won't you stay for dinner?"

Seeing Yukiko dragging Conan away, Xiaolan asked hesitantly. Well, under Yukiko's gaze, she still changed her words honestly.

"Yes, Yukiko, it's been a while since we last met. Why don't you stay for dinner?"

Mao Li, who was standing by, also asked. However, his expression clearly didn't indicate an invitation to Yukiko. It was clear from his eyes that he was deeply dissatisfied with Yukiko showing up at his house at dinner time.

Yukiko of course understood Maori's look and smiled:

"No, I have something else to do. I'll borrow the child and leave first. As for dinner, I'll take him out to eat!"

Having said that, Yukiko carried Conan out of the room without waiting for Maori's response.

Well, a while later, when Ai appeared here and learned that Conan was taken away by Yukiko, a depressed expression appeared on her face. Damn, Conan is gone, what about the research ideas she had finally come up with these days?

After studying in the spiritual space for a long time, she is now inseparable from that very convenient space!

......

Conan, who was forcibly carried out by Yukiko, looked at the kind smile on his old mother's face and felt a little scared:

"Sister Yukiko, you shouldn't be so petty, right?"

"Of course~"

Looking at Conan who was relieved, Yukiko's smile deepened:

"It's just that after going hungry, some people probably realize what it means to speak out of turn. Let's go! Let's leave now!"

As she spoke, Yukiko put her coat into her bag, revealing her leather jacket underneath. Before Conan could react, she stuffed him into the jacket.

"Okay, Shin-chan, let's go~"

After she finished speaking, she jumped on a motorcycle, stepped on the accelerator, and the motorcycle roared away into the distance.

"Huh?! Ah...what are you doing!?"

With only his head exposed, Conan felt the strong wind blowing towards him and subconsciously wanted to shout, but was then hit by a cold wind. Then he quickly closed his mouth and asked cautiously.

"What, you don't want to eat anymore? This is all your food for tonight. Come on, eat as much as you want!"

Looking at Conan who was carefully keeping his mouth shut, Yukiko had a satisfied smile on her face. She's been asked to call her "Obasan" so many times, why don't you learn your lesson?

"So, what are you doing here? Did you have a fight with my dad?"

Looking at this familiar painting style, Conan always had a bad feeling in his heart.

"Who quarreled with that bastard?"

However, after hearing Conan's words, Yukiko's voice suddenly rose several degrees:

"It's obvious he's having an affair! Damn Yusaku! He didn't come home so late at night and didn't come back until the next morning! The thing is, he was drunk and there were lipstick marks on his collar!"

As she spoke, Yukiko's face became more and more angry, and she involuntarily turned the accelerator a little more.

"Wait, wait! Dad, that was just a normal social event! After all, he's a best-selling novelist, so he was probably just invited to a cocktail party! But Mom, please slow down!"

Feeling the increasingly cold wind and watching the scene around him rapidly receding, Conan hurriedly shouted.

Yukiko seemed to notice that the car was going a bit too fast, so she slightly controlled her speed, but her voice still revealed a strong sense of dissatisfaction:

"What do you mean by a normal social event? What do you mean by attending a cocktail party? If that were all, I wouldn't have been mad at him for so long. The key issue is that there was a spending record on his card that night!

That bastard Yusaku went out drinking late at night, and it's fine, but he even checked into a hotel room!!! Tell me, can I forgive him?!"

"?!"

Hearing Yukiko's key words, Conan's heart trembled. "Get a room?" That's impossible. It can't be that coincidental...

With this mentality, he asked Yukiko nervously:

"Um, Mom, when did this incident you mentioned happen?"

"It was just a while ago, I think it was the night of March 3st! He even insisted that he was just out for a social event. Shinichi, don't you think Yusaku is really going too far? He clearly checked into the hotel, and I've received the spending records, but he just won't admit it!"

Yukiko pouted and said to Conan dissatisfiedly.

"Ah, haha, yes, yes, Dad did something wrong!"

After hearing Yukiko's words, cold sweat slid down Conan's forehead.

Well, how could he, the culprit, not know whether his father was innocent or not? However, for the sake of his future financial freedom, he decided to keep this secret deep in his heart.

"As expected, Shinichi, you are the one who supports me the most! Well, in return, I have decided not to let you starve!"

After hearing Conan's words, Yukiko's expression changed instantly. She happily stopped the motorcycle, pulled Conan out, and took him to a high-end restaurant next to her.

As he walked he said:

"Since that bastard Yusaku treated me like this, I'm going to vent my anger! Well, I'll use his card to have a feast!"

Looking at Yukiko who was so excited, Conan mourned in his heart:

"I'm sorry, Dad, but for your son's safety, you have to take the blame for me."
