After traveling through Detective Conan, I became a popular person

Chapter 236 Conspiracy (1)

Kitagawa Ryotsuru was wearing a light grey suit, looking dignified and casual, and he had been waiting for a long time while looking at the bustling night scene outside the window.

When he had no expression on his face, his pair of silver-gray peach blossom eyes seemed emotionless. His elegant and handsome face faintly revealed a sense of oppression. He looked cold and dangerous, silently forcing back some wealthy ladies who wanted to approach him and chat with him.

When he heard the familiar sound of high-heeled footsteps, he knew it was Hoshino Hitomi coming.

Kitagawa Ryosaku immediately stood up from his seat, looked sideways, and a bright smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"elder sister……"

His voice suddenly paused, and when he saw the particularly annoying long-haired man next to Hoshino Hitomi, his brows couldn't help but frown.

Hoshino Hitomi said apologetically: "Sorry, I encountered something on the way, so I'm a little late. Have you been waiting for a long time?"

Hearing this, Kitagawa Ryotsuru's heart softened instantly. He shook his head and smiled nonchalantly, "It didn't take long, and my sister wasn't late, so there's no need to apologize."

His eyebrows curved, and he then praised: "Sister, you are dressed very beautifully tonight, the kind that makes people unable to take their eyes away~"

Hoshino Hitomi nodded slightly, smiled and responded: "Thank you."

After helping the other person to sit down, Beichuan Lianghe asked with a slightly aggrieved look on his face: "It's just... Sister, why does he always stick around you?"

After saying that, Kitagawa Ryosaku secretly glared at Akai Shuichi with a rather resentful look.

"He is my personal bodyguard. In other words, he is my man and is responsible for protecting my safety..."

When Kitagawa Ryosaku heard the other party say "He is mine" with his own mouth, his heart ached.

How long does he have to wait until Hoshino Hitomi says the same thing to him?

Remembering that the other party was going to explain the reason for his hair color change tonight, Hoshino Hitomi changed the subject slightly:

"If you want to do something private next, and it's not convenient for anyone other than me to know, I can ask him to leave for a while."

Beichuan Lianghe nodded slightly with a smile on his face and replied, "Then sister, please make your own arrangements. You are more familiar with this restaurant."

Hoshino Hitomi gently tugged at the sleeve of Akai Shuichi beside her, motioning him to bend down, then leaned close to his ear and whispered a few words, then let him leave first.

After a brief chat, Hoshino Hitomi's face became serious and she got straight to the point: "Now can we talk about it? About the change in your hair color."

Kitagawa Ryotsuru calmly hid the faint smile in his eyes, lowered his voice slightly, and said calmly: "Sister is very smart, she should have guessed that my situation is similar to that of Gin and Vermouth. But... the nature of the experiments we three conducted are different."

He went on to explain: "To be precise, the tissue experiments they both did were not harmful to the body in essence. However, some of their characteristics are still different from those of ordinary people."

Naturally, Hoshino Hitomi had already known the content of the two people's experiments, so she was not too worried, and Kitagawa Ryosaku's words were undoubtedly avoiding the question.

"I know their situations, but what's wrong with you? Did you do any experiments that would harm your body?"

Seeing that the other party left him no room for maneuver, Kitagawa Ryosaku smiled helplessly.

"Sure enough, I can't hide anything from my sister."

"Walls have ears, sister, come closer to me..."

Hearing this, Hoshino Hitomi frowned slightly, and after hesitating for a moment, she stood up and walked to the other person's side, leaning slightly forward, and her ears with a hint of light pink in her fair skin slowly approached the other person's thin lips.

Beichuan Lianghe smiled slightly, raised his hand and gently lifted the strands of hair that were scattered around her ears, and whispered softly: "Sister, the kiss mark on your neck is not covered well."

Seeing that the other party was not playing by the rules at all, Hoshino Hitomi gradually lost her patience and narrowed her eyes slightly and said, "Stop talking nonsense. If you don't get to the point, I'll leave. I don't have that much time to waste."

Kitagawa Ryotsuku smiled faintly, and easily put his arm around the other's slender waist, making the other sit directly on his thighs. Then he tightly held the other's waist, and the postures of the two looked very intimate.

He then lowered his head slightly and leaned close to the other person's ear, making them look like a pair of lovers whispering in each other's ears, causing the people around them to not dare to even look at them.

Before Hoshino Hitomi could break free from the other person's embrace, she heard the other person whisper in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "Return to childhood from old age."

"The boss wants to achieve the effect of returning to youth after aging on the basis of immortality, and Vermouth and I are the test subjects of this experiment."

"Unlike Vermouth, I am the only one who will age prematurely after the experiment. Although it will be reflected in the change of hair color, I only have less than four years left to live. If I don't make an antidote within the deadline, Vermouth and I may both die of heart failure."

When Hoshino Hitomi heard this, her pupils suddenly shrank and a look of shock flashed across her eyes.

Then, she forced herself to calm down, and asked softly with a complicated look, "How confident are you that you can make an antidote?"

Seeing the worry in the other person's eyes, Beichuan Lianghe softened his expression and said in a gentle voice, "It's 60% at the moment. There's still hope of making an antidote."

Hearing this, Hoshino Hitomi breathed a sigh of relief for a moment, then asked in confusion: "Why... did the boss let you do this experiment?"

Logically speaking, the boss would let those who are related to him do the experiments first, because he believes that this is more "secure", so even if it is her turn to do the experiment, it should not be Kitagawa Ryokaku's turn.

Just as Kitagawa Ryosaku was thinking about how to argue with the other party, his cell phone suddenly vibrated. He took a quick look and found that it was a text message from his subordinate. It seemed that he had to leave for a while.

But he didn't want to leave his date with Hitomi Hoshino early because of those messy experiments.

While the other party was in a daze, Hoshino Hitomi had already left his lap and returned to her original seat. She then noticed the strange look on his face and asked, "Is there something important?"

Beichuan Lianghe responded calmly: "Yes, but don't worry, I just need to make a phone call and say a few words to them. Please wait for me for a while, sister."

*Ten minutes later

Seeing that Kitagawa Ryosaku had not returned yet, Hoshino Hitomi raised the red wine glass in front of her and took a sip, then went to the bathroom to put on some simple makeup and sent a text message to ask about the other party's situation.

A man who was hiding and watching secretly not far away saw Hoshino Hitomi finally drink the glass of red wine, and a hint of madness flashed in his eyes.

Just as Hoshino Hitomi walked to the corner, a brown-haired woman in a white long dress suddenly threw herself into her arms, lay in her arms, raised her head slightly, and looked at her with tearful eyes.

Hoshino Hitomi subconsciously felt that something was wrong. After seeing the other person's face clearly, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes. She immediately recognized that the other person was the wife of her distant cousin.

Her distant cousin, Asai Yangquan, was the owner of this restaurant. The two of them were a perfect match and both were outstanding young people. Naturally, she attended their wedding banquet.

Hoshino Hitomi pulled her thoughts back to her senses, reached out to help Chie Asai, who was crying in front of her, and asked with a worried look on her face, "Sister Chie, what's wrong with you?"

Chie Asai bit her lower lip and said in a trembling voice: "Little Sister Tong, please... please don't go to the bathroom tonight. If you can leave, leave as soon as possible."

After saying that, she pushed Hoshino Hitomi away and ran away alone.
