Conan: Ran turns into an elementary school student and calls me dad.

Chapter 142 Rescue Plan

"But my physical anomaly is not that I have a strong recovery ability, nor that my body is shrinking..."

As Lin Xiuyi was speaking, she suddenly remembered something, and her expression immediately turned somewhat unpleasant.

Lin Xiuyi had considered the possibility that Xiaolan's health problems might be due to her own actions.

He hadn't thought about it any further because of the unusual differences in their physical conditions.

But now that Vermouth brought it up, Lin Xiuyi followed her train of thought and recalled something.

Unlike typical soul transmigration, Lin Xiuyi arrived in this world with his entire body and soul.

It's possible that the body was affected by the forces of spacetime during the spatial journey.

In the original world, Lin Xiuyi was already a working adult, a corporate slave working from nine to midnight every day.

But after entering this world, his originally adult body shrunk to the size of a ten-year-old.

If it weren't for the chance encounter with a kind elderly couple who had been childless for many years and were adopted by them...

Lin Xiuyi, who had just transmigrated, might have been sent directly to a children's welfare home by the police.

So, I really did experience my body shrinking back then!

Could it be that Xiaolan's shrinking is really because of me?

Lin Xiuyi's expression was somewhat strange, but Vermouth was also pondering something and therefore did not notice his unusual behavior.

"You want to save Shiho Miyano, but you'll have to wait a few days," the witch thought for a moment. "I don't even know her address in Tokyo."

"However, I just told the people here that I wanted to visit the lab, so I'll know where it is then."

"But wouldn't that implicate you?" Lin Xiu asked with concern. "You don't even know that address; it must be extremely secretive. If you get attacked right after you get there, your organization might suspect you..."

"That's why I said I'd have to wait a few days."

Vermouth reached out and gently touched Lin Xiuyi's face, clearly pleased that he had considered her feelings.

"You mean you'll leave first, then disguise yourself and come back?" Lin Xiuyi frowned.

"That's right."

Vermouth nodded in agreement, then smiled and asked,

"Then guess who I'll disguise myself as when I come back?"

"If you want to save Shiho Miyano but can't let your organization suspect you, then disguising yourself as an enemy of your organization is the most suitable option, like the FBI..."

As Lin Xiuyi was speaking, a flash of inspiration struck her.

"Are you trying to disguise yourself as Shuichi Akai, the one who injured you before?"

"Bingo! Correct answer! Here's a reward for you..."

The witch gave a seductive laugh, then suddenly leaned forward and pecked Lin Xiuyi on the lips. She then looked him into the eyes and said coldly,

"If we kill Miyano Akemi tomorrow, and Akai Shuichi, her lover, retaliates, that'll be enough to appease the organization."

"And if your organization retaliates against Shuichi Akai for this, wouldn't you be able to get some satisfaction?"

Lin Xiuyi smiled and revealed the witch's other purpose.

"Hmph, just to vent your anger on my behalf?"

Vermouth glanced sideways at the man beneath her.

"I have another gunshot wound, don't you feel any remorse at all?"

"Of course I feel bad."

Lin Xiuyi quickly wrapped his arms around the witch's slender waist, gently stroking the newly appeared gunshot wound on her waist while assuring her...

"That bastard dared to hurt you, I'll definitely return this gun to him someday."

The two then went over the plan to fake Miyano Akemi's death, and then Vermouth disguised herself as Akai Shuichi to rescue Miyano Shiho.

After ensuring the entire plan was flawless, it was almost five o'clock, and dawn was about to break.

Although Lin Xiuyi was somewhat reluctant, she still got up, dressed, and prepared to leave.

"Are you leaving?"

Vermouth lay on the bed, lazily wrapping her arms around the man's waist as she asked him a question.

"Hmm." Lin Xiu nodded. "Don't forget, I have an FBI agent in my house. You already caught her attention when you disguised yourself as Sato Miwako."

"I'd better go back early to avoid arousing her suspicion again."

After saying this, Lin Xiuyi casually asked,

"Oh right, where's Eri? I need to take her back with me."

"Just say you're worried about that female lawyer. Do you think I'd be jealous?"

Vermouth got up, stretched out her two smooth arms, and wrapped them around Lin Xiuyi's neck from behind.

The two pressed tightly together, and the witch chuckled as she whispered in Lin Xiuyi's ear,

"Didn't you already know that Eri Kisaki was nearby? Now guess again, which house is she in?"

"You guessed right, so I'll let you take her away."

"And if I guess wrong," the witch's voice suddenly turned cold, "then I'll just have to let your childhood sweetheart stay with me for another day or two."

"Let me see what it is about this female lawyer that makes you remember her after all these years."

Let me try?

Why does this sound so strange?

Seeing that Vermouth seemed determined not to let him take Eri away easily, Hayashi Shuichi had no choice but to guess according to her wishes.

Before he could figure it out, he suddenly heard a "clang" from the next room.

Lin Xiuyi had a sudden inspiration and immediately pointed to the wall next to her.

"Eri is next door!"

"whispering sound,"

Vermouth snorted angrily, loosened her grip on Lin Xiuyi, then reached down to pick up the clothes on the ground, took a room key out of her pocket, and threw it into Lin Xiuyi's hand.

"Your childhood sweetheart is in room 301 next door."

Holy crap, I guessed right!

Lin Xiuyi was initially delighted, but upon seeing Vermouth's mocking smile, he suddenly understood the witch's intention, and a chill ran through his body.

301 and 302 are separated by only one wall. If Eri Kisaki were next door, wouldn't she have heard everything that was happening here?

……

Room 301

Because of the struggle, Eri Kisaki was now lying on the ground, chair and all.

Just as the female lawyer was trying to break free of the ropes binding her, the door suddenly opened, and a figure she had been waiting for all night appeared in the doorway.

……

As soon as Lin Xiuyi opened the door, she vaguely saw a figure lying on the ground.

He quickly turned on the light and then saw clearly that it was Eri Kisaki!

"Eri..."

Lin Xiuyi quickly ran over, first straightened the chair, and then carefully helped the female lawyer remove the tape from her mouth.

"Eri, are you alright..."

Lin Xiuyi was halfway through her sentence when she noticed the listening device and earphones that had fallen to the ground beside her.

Seeing the look in Eri's eyes that seemed to want to devour him, Lin Xiuyi's expression immediately became somewhat embarrassed.
