Chapter 385 A family of three
"Leave it to me to prepare the food for everyone!"
After a while, Belmode completely changed his appearance.
She tied her cascading silver hair into a bun, found a white apron from somewhere and put it on. She looked like a gentle and virtuous housewife.
Coupled with her beguiling and gentle smile, in the eyes of those children, Belmode is really a Maorilan-style angelic big sister:
"Okay, Sister Chris"
"Then let's go collect firewood!"
Several children in the Junior Detective Team enthusiastically took the initiative to take over the work for themselves.
"Yeah." Belmod nodded at them encouragingly: "Go ahead."
The children nodded excitedly, turned around and walked towards the forest.
"etc."
Lin Xinyi stopped these cheerful little devils and carefully told them:
"Be careful when entering the woods. Don't get separated."
"Maintain radio contact throughout the entire process. If anything goes wrong, remember to notify me immediately using your detective badge."
"I know" the kid agreed nonchalantly.
At this glance, he didn't listen to Lin Xinyi's instructions.
Even Conan is like this——
The great detective was used to danger, and his nerves had long since become thick.
"Alas" Lin Xinyi shook his head helplessly.
He turned to look at Dr. A Li, the only available and reliable adult present:
"Dr. Ali, take Caesar with them."
"Collect the firewood just around here, but don't let these kids wander around in the woods."
"OK, all right."
Dr. A Li nodded and took up the nanny job with ease.
"Please." Lin Xinyi finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Although Belmode said to enjoy this camping trip.
But his heart couldn't relax.
Because Lin Xinyi knew in his heart that he was not camping at all.
He came out to work.
Lin Xinyi looked at Conan with a resentful look:
It is still within the boundaries of Tokyo and within the jurisdiction of the Metropolitan Police Department.
As the management officer of the Metropolitan Police Department, even if I don't follow him now, I will come sooner or later.
"It's okay, don't worry!"
Conan has no self-awareness.
Faced with Lin Xinyi's worry, he still posed confidently and pushed up the glasses on the bridge of his nose:
"As long as I'm here, nothing will happen."
Lin Xinyi: "."
He subconsciously wanted to complain, but thought about it carefully.
The statement "it will be fine" is actually quite correct.
Because in the process of getting to know Ke Xue, Lin Xinyi gradually discovered and summarized an objective law of Ke Xue:
Those who have just met Conan may die at any time.
But if you survive the initial "dangerous period" and successfully become Conan's friend, there will be no more fatal problems.
According to this objective law, everyone, including Lin Xinyi himself, should be safe.
"Okay, just be careful."
With the care of Caesar and Dr. Ali, and the blessing of Ke Guanlu, Lin Xinyi can feel relieved:
"Come back after collecting firewood."
"If a body is found, remember to protect the scene."
"Hey, hey. I don't always find corpses."
Conan wanted to refute, but Lin Xinyi ignored him habitually.
In the end, he followed the children of the Young Detective Corps obediently under the supervision of Dr. Ali and Caesar.
The ones who stayed there were Belmod, Lin Xinyi, and Haibara Ai who were responsible for preparing the food.
"Aren't you going to accompany your little classmates?"
Belmod looked down at Haiyuan Ai with a playful tone.
Hui Yuan Ai frowned and replied calmly:
"I'm going to stay here and cook."
"As long as I'm in charge of the cooking, you can come and help." Belmode said in a generous tone.
"No, I want to be the chef."
Haibara Ai seems to be unusually persistent in her job as a chef.
She won't let anyone know:
Ever since she tasted the home-cooked dishes prepared by Belmod as the "hostess" at Lin Xin's house, she has been secretly learning cooking skills from her sister while suppressing her desire to compete with them.
Smart people learn everything quickly. Miss Huiyuan's cooking skills improved rapidly, and she was waiting for a suitable opportunity to let Lin Xinyi have a taste of her skills.
Now is obviously a perfect time.
"Oh?" Belmode seemed to see something.
"Okay. Then you do it."
She didn't habitually make things difficult for others, but instead readily agreed.
But Hui Yuan Ai didn't have time to be happy yet.
Then I saw Belmod move a folding table from the car, unfold it, put it away, and put all the cooking ingredients on it:
"Please give it your best, Miss Haiyuan."
Belmode pointed to the folding table whose edge was higher than Haihara Ai's head, smiled and said "encouragingly":
"By the way, we are here for a picnic today."
"So I only brought the table that serves as a cooking table, but not the chairs. I'm afraid there won't be anything for you to step on."
"You" Hui Yuarai's face sank.
She walked to the table, held in her breath, and stood on tiptoes with great effort.
Enough. Nothing can be reached.
Trembling and swaying, his breath gradually became heavier, and his little face quietly turned red.
"You just want to see me look so funny, right?"
"But I'm not the kind of idiot who will put on a show even though he knows he can't reach it."
Hui Yuan Ai crossed her arms and faced Belmode's teasing gaze, and raised her head with high spirits:
"A table doesn't bother me."
"As long as the stone next to the table is moved closer, I can step on the stone to cook."
"oh?"
Belmod's tone was still teasing:
"Can you move that rock by yourself?"
"It's just a simple lever principle."
Hui Yuan Ai sneered tit for tat.
As she spoke, she turned around calmly and picked up a long branch from the ground.
Then, Miss Haiyuan struggled to insert the long branch under the big stone, and then pushed it down hard.
"Well"
The stone didn't move.
"Why, why is it so heavy?"
Hui Yuan Ai's face was still red.
She gritted her teeth and pressed down hard with shame and anger.
The stone still didn't move.
Belmod's eyes became more and more teasing, and she smiled slightly, keeping everything in mind.
"."
Haihara Ai's cheeks turned from pink to hot red, like a cooked crab.
"Forget it."
Seeing that Haiyuan Ai was about to jump up from the ground and "fight to the death," Lin Xinyi quickly stopped her dangerous move.
He stretched out his hand gently, causing the stone to roll and roll under the table.
Then, Lin Xinyi hugged the red-faced Miss Huiyuan and carefully placed her on the stone.
Huihara Ai finally stood firm and reached the cooking table.
"Hey you two" Lin Xinyi felt helpless:
It was clear that everyone was just like a family of three, but in the blink of an eye, the two women were at odds again.
So, is their current relationship good or bad? This is really unpredictable.
"Haha, let's cook."
Belmode had already seen the scene he wanted to see, and the smile on his lips was full of pride.
Hui Yuan Ai, on the other hand, lowered his head and said nothing.
She angrily picked up an unlucky potato that was bigger than her palm, and sharply chopped it with a knife.
There followed a busy period of silence, and the smell of gunpowder was reduced a lot.
Haibara Ai and Belmode began to work together to prepare the dishes. One washed the vegetables, the other cut the vegetables, one took the dishes and the other handed the plates. As we came and went, the atmosphere became inexplicably warm again.
The feeling of being a family of three comes again.
It's a pity that Lin Xinyi, who plays the male protagonist, is a little distracted.
From time to time, he looked towards the woods, as if observing what was going on in the woods.
"stop looking"
Belmode shook his head helplessly:
"With Caesar here, they'll be fine."
"And that old Mr. A Li seems to be a reliable guy."
"Yeah" Lin Xin nodded.
He also felt that Conan had made him a little nervous. As soon as I go out to play, I worry about this and that, which affects my normal life.
Lin Xinyi tried his best to recover his thoughts, and thought about joining with Belmod to help Haibara Aida prepare the food.
But at this time, Hui Yuan Ai said coldly:
"Mr. A Li?"
"Dr. Ali is actually only 52 years old."
"Huh?!" The warm atmosphere ended abruptly.
Lin Xinyi and Belmod looked at each other.
They recalled Dr. A Li's kind face with pale white hair for a moment, and their expressions became strange:
"It's true. It's true that people cannot be judged by their appearance."
"Yeah." Hui Yuan Ai shrugged.
Miss Haiyuan, who had just been eaten in front of Belmode, suddenly stopped chopping vegetables and raised her head as if nothing had happened.
She looked at Belmode with evil intentions and said lightly:
"Maybe, 'Mr. A Li'."
"Younger than you."
