Transmigrated to the world of Detective Conan.

After taking a bath, Eri Kisaki returned home, changed clothes, got ready again, and only then went back to the law office.

"Master, are you okay?"

The assistant, Midori Kuriyama, asked worriedly.

"I'm fine."

Eri Kisaki opened the office door and entered: "It was just a small incident... but it's already resolved."

"Ah..."

Seeing that Eri didn't want to talk anymore, Midori didn't insist. She knew her master's temperament very well.

Eri sat on the sofa and took the food that Midori had already bought in advance to start eating.

However, the food tasted strangely salty, which made Eri only take a few bites before leaving it. She still had a faint salty taste in her mouth that wouldn't go away.

Leaving the chopsticks and food aside, Eri said: "I don't want anything salty today. Go buy me sushi and also some dessert."

"Understood."

Midori nodded and then handed a piece of paper to Eri: "This morning, since you weren't here, I rescheduled the appointments for the night... Please check if there is any problem."

Eri glanced at it. She would have to work until eleven at night. Though somewhat resigned, she had no choice. After all, she had impulsively decided to act the night before.

"Okay."

Eri nodded.

Midori didn't say anything else and turned to go buy Eri's lunch.

Once the door closed, Eri collapsed on the sofa, covering her face with a piece of paper.

She began to recall in detail the events of the previous night.

The sensation felt extremely strange.

Ten years of firmness, and everything collapsed the night before.

She couldn't understand why she had acted so impulsively.

Shaking her head, Eri got up, sat at her desk, and started working to prevent her mind from wandering further.

————————————

Lin Yi glanced at his inventory.

The night before, he had used three affection boost cards and two affinity event cards all at once.

Finally, he managed to create an explosive effect for an unforgettable night.

Evaluating the costs and benefits of this action, it was clear that Lin Yi had lost out.

Three golden boxes and two silver boxes had only resulted in a common box.

Even an elementary school student knew this was a huge loss.

However, from the perspective of future strategies, this business was definitely a guaranteed profit.

When, in the future, Ran introduced him to her mother...

The moment Eri Kisaki saw him, she would surely be stunned, nervously to the extreme.

And he, for his part, could use this as a point of entry to slowly break down Eri Kisaki's psychological barriers.

Until he finally achieved the goal of having her completely under control.

In theory, Lin Yi could ask Ran right now to take him to meet her mother and start this absurd plot.

But Lin Yi thought that this alone might not be enough.

It was possible that Eri Kisaki was rational enough to completely disregard the memory of that night.

Therefore, Lin Yi concluded that he should further strengthen this emotional connection as strangers, until he made her obsess over him.

When Eri got into his car, he would then scare her with a dangerous overtaking on a curve, leaving her completely stunned.

"Ah... The affection boost cards I worked so hard to accumulate are gone again."

Lin Yi sighed regretfully.

Tricking a girl into going to a hotel was easy, but winning her heart was much more complicated.

That's what they say: "It's easy to steal the body, but hard to steal the heart."

"A gentleman should not fear effort, for the burden is heavy and the road, long~~"

After reflecting, Lin Yi remembered the Aoshima sisters, who had been ruthlessly abandoned the night before.

To be honest, he didn't want things to reach that point.

Leaving them halfway through the date was already bad, but doing it in front of them while going with another woman...

That action... frankly, even Lin Yi was speechless with himself.

However, he never imagined he would meet Eri Kisaki in that place, just when she was alone drinking to drown her sorrows.

How could he let such a perfect opportunity slip by?

Time waits for no one!

If he let this chance pass, who knew if there would be another?

As important as the Aoshima sisters were, they couldn't compare to his future mother-in-law, right?

As for the Aoshima sisters... Lin Yi didn't plan to just forget about them.

Lin Yi opened his phone, checked the more than forty missed calls, and smiled.

He pressed to return the call.

————————————

"Damned, damned!!"

In her room, Masayo Aoshima hugged a large pillow and repeatedly punched it.

"Why! Why! Waaah!"

Masayo cried as she hit the pillow in frustration.

"I was the one who went out with him first... Why did he suddenly go after another woman? Why?! Waaah!"

Masayo cried uncontrollably.

On the side, Mina offered a handkerchief, worried, and said, "Sister... stop crying. Since you came back last night, you haven't stopped crying, and now that you woke up, you're still crying... Your eyes are completely swollen."

Masayo took the handkerchief to wipe her tears and, looking at Mina, asked: "Mina, tell me, why did he leave me? Am I not pretty enough? Am I not attractive? Waaah!"

After being abandoned twice, Mina didn't know how to comfort her sister.

Just when Mina was in a dilemma, the phone began to ring.

Masayo, lost in her tears, didn't pay attention. Mina approached, took the phone, and, seeing who was calling, exclaimed excitedly: "Sister, it's him! He's calling!"

"Does he still have the nerve to call me?!"

Masayo shouted in anger.

"Then... should I hang up?" Mina asked timidly.

"Wait!"

Masayo quickly stopped her innocent sister. Couldn't she see that this was just an expression of her anger?

Really!

"Give me the phone."

Masayo extended her hand to Mina to ask for the phone, saying proudly: "I want to hear how he's going to explain himself!"

"Ah, okay."

Mina obediently handed her the phone.

Masayo quickly wiped her tears, stopped crying, and took several deep breaths to calm down. She couldn't let him know she had been crying.

When she was ready, Masayo answered the call with a falsely cold voice: "Did you finally decide to answer?"

On the other side of the line, Lin Yi's voice was heard: "I'm sorry, something unexpected came up last night and I left without telling you."

"Something unexpected?" Masayo let out a cold snort. She felt like Lin Yi was taking her for a fool. "Then tell me, what was that unexpected thing?"

"Last night there was a murder case on West Street... So I had to go quickly."

Upon hearing this, Masayo quickly asked Mina for the phone and searched for the words "West Street" and "murder" on the browser.

Immediately, news confirming the event appeared.

Masayo felt a little relief, though she still had doubts. So she continued to interrogate him: "And what about the woman you were drinking with? Didn't you leave with her?"

"Her? Oh... I understand now. You mean lawyer Kisaki, right?"

"Lawyer Kisaki?"

"Yes, her full name is Eri Kisaki, the wife of detective Mouri... Although they are currently separated due to problems in their marriage. I didn't expect to find her there, so I stayed talking with her."

Intrigued, Masayo searched for the name on the internet and soon found information about Eri Kisaki. She discovered that she was known as the "Unbeaten Queen" in the legal field, along with details about her marriage.

Reading this, Masayo finally understood. No wonder he had been talking to her all night; she was detective Mouri's wife!

So, it had all been a misunderstanding.

A misunderstanding!

Realizing this, a smile appeared on Masayo's face again.
