Conan: The Magician of the End of the Century

Chapter 260 I advise you to be kind

Hearing the other party's sudden and fatal question, Conan didn't understand the other party's intention for a moment, and complained unhappily: "I mean Huiyuan, when we are talking about business, can you not suddenly make fun of me?"

"Looking for fun with you? Do you really think so?" Seeing Conan's reaction, Xiao Ai was not surprised at all. Instead, he took a step closer to him and looked straight into Conan's somewhat evasive eyes, asking with a serious look. He said, "Kudo Shinichi, let me ask you, who is Mao Lilan to you?"

Conan didn't expect that the other party would ask such a question. He quickly put his hands in front of him and took a step back, not daring to look directly into the other person's eyes: "Haihara, why do you have such a scary expression? Besides, what do I think about it?" Xiaolan seems to have nothing to do with the current situation, right?"

"It doesn't matter? I'm telling you Kudo Shinichi, there's a big connection here!" Seeing that Conan still hasn't grasped the key to the problem, the anger in Xiao Ai's heart suddenly surged up, showing a look of hatred for iron. She looked like she was sternly reprimanding, "So this is the famous detective who claims to be Heisei Holmes? I really feel unworthy for Xiaolan that she would fall in love with an irresponsible waste like you!"

"Huh? You actually called me a waste?! How did I not take responsibility?" Seeing that he was called a waste by the other party for no reason, Conan's face immediately turned ugly, and he retorted with an unconvinced look, "Speak of me again. Whether it’s worthy of Xiaolan’s liking or not, you don’t need to complain about it!”

As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Ai rushed directly in front of Conan, grabbed his arm, twisted it firmly behind his back, and then pressed his knee directly against the opponent's hip.

Conan didn't expect that the other party would attack directly without any moral ethics. Unprepared, his knees softened and he fell to the ground. One of his arms was locked behind the opponent's back and he completely lost the ability to resist. He could only be held tightly by Xiao Ai. Pressed down.

"Haha, you said you are not a waste, but you still have the nerve to protect others? Don't make people laugh!" Before Conan could say anything, Xiao Ai took the lead and slapped him on the face, "Do you know what you are doing now? The most dangerous one is Xiaolan? After all this, you still plan to hide it from her. Are you really doing this for her, okay?"

"Isn't it just to protect Xiaolan that I don't tell her?!" Conan, who couldn't move even an inch with all his strength, endured the pain in his arm and said harshly, "She will be very worried if she knows the truth. What's more, if I am discovered by the organization, Xiaolan, who is an insider, will also be implicated!"

"Bah! They're all excuses. Since you don't dare to say it, then I'll say it for you!" Seeing that Conan was still quibbling, Xiao Ai spat at him and sneered, "You keep saying that you are worried that Xiaolan will be implicated by you, but you But you can live in the Maori Detective Agency with peace of mind. Do you think that the day you are exposed, the people in the organization will still care about whether the father and daughter are insiders? Stop deceiving yourself!"

"You would rather tell Dr. Agasa and Hattori Heiji than confess to Xiaolan, who is most worried about you. To put it bluntly, don't you think she is unreliable and may the news accidentally leak out?"

"In your eyes, Xiaolan has always been the girl who has not grown up. She needs your careful care all the time and cannot bear any damage. But have you really considered Xiaolan's feelings from her perspective?"

"I...!" Faced with Xiao Ai's relentless attempts to reveal his true inner thoughts, Conan wanted to stop him but was unable to resist. Even the eloquence he had always been proud of seemed to be sealed at this moment. Completely unable to respond effectively.Seeing that the other party had swallowed back the words he wanted to quibble with, Xiao Ai was unreasonable and continued to launch a verbal bombardment: "Why, are you pretending to be mute when I say it right? Kudo Shinichi, I tell you, put away your pride Be chauvinistic and look at the people you cherish with equal eyes from now on!"

"Don't you like Sherlock Holmes the most? Then think carefully about how Sherlock Holmes views Irene Adler. That's a kind of appreciation and respect!" Xiao Ai stared at Conan's slightly blue face and couldn't help but sigh. He said, "It is true that Irene is a very smart and independent woman, but is Xiaolan so miserable that she is not worthy of your equal treatment? You have the nerve to say that you like her just like this?"

"We are both girls. I can see that Xiaolan really likes you, but you just tell her lies again and again and wait again and again to repay her feelings for you? Do you know that constantly bringing hope to a girl only makes her feel sad?" Is it extremely cruel to make the other party feel disappointed? Kudo Shinichi, I advise you to be kind!"

"Taking a step back, one day the organization will be completely defeated and you will recover your original body. But when the truth comes out, what do you think Xiaolan will think? Will she feel that you have been hiding it from her from beginning to end? Is it for her sake, or do you think you never trusted her from the beginning to the end?"

"True love is not afraid of calamity, and true gold is not afraid of fire. If you really like Xiaolan, don't let her continue to wait in fear and worry for you. Tell her the truth bravely and believe her, even if you encounter When faced with danger, two people can overcome it together."

Having said this, Xiao Ai slowly exhaled, let go of her hand and took a step back. Looking at Conan who had his inner struggle written all over his face, he said earnestly: "Love is not a one-sided gift or self-impression. I miss you." What you like shouldn’t be Xiaolan who can’t understand the detective career she loves and can’t go hand in hand with her, right? If you want to change the status quo, isn’t now the best opportunity?”

"Xiaolan is such a considerate girl. I believe that as long as you are willing to treat each other with sincerity, she will definitely understand you and support you." Looking at Conan who was having difficulty getting up, Xiaoai stretched out his hand to help her and then continued, "What's more, Xiaolan is not the kind of girl who can only be protected. As long as you give her room to grow, I believe she will soon become your good wife."

"It hurts so much. Haiyuan, please speak the truth properly. Next time, can you not take action if you disagree with me?" After rubbing his sore arm, Conan turned his head and glared at Xiao Ai and said angrily, "By the way, what are you doing? Suddenly she became a close friend, chatting so much that she seemed to understand everything."

Although he is still stubborn on the surface, Conan has figured out a lot of things under Xiao Ai's scolding. He knows that what the other party said is basically the truth, but he is unwilling to bow his head and admit it due to his face and long-standing concepts. He can take matters into his own hands.

Seeing the looseness in Conan's tone, Xiao Ai chuckled and said, "I didn't understand it at first, but during the time I spent with my adoptive parents, I gradually understood that true love is based on mutual trust and mutual support. On top, not being pretentious like you."
