"After all, Sister Seijitsu, you're one of mine too~" Kurumi said with a smile as she looked at Narumi. At her words, Aso Narumi's little face flushed slightly, as if she were embarrassed.
Noticing the scene before him, Conan's eye twitched.
Could this Tokisaki... like girls? With that thought in mind, Conan looked at Kurumi, then at Aso Narumi. To his surprise, when Kurumi held Aso Narumi's hand, there was even a trace of... happiness on her face?
This is bad! I have to make sure Ran stays far away from this woman from now on! Conan was shocked. How long had Kurumi and Aso Narumi even known each other? Yet their relationship had already become like this.
To keep his childhood friend from being led astray, Conan became even more certain of his decision.
"Thank you, Kurumi." Being treated as one of Kurumi's own made Aso Narumi a little happy.
"Now, back to business." Kurumi gave Aso Narumi a sweet smile capable of captivating anyone, then turned to Conan, her expression growing serious.
"Of the two people I mentioned, it's fine if you run into Vodka alone. That big guy looks rough and burly, but he isn't exactly quick-witted."
"As for Gin..." Kurumi thought about her impression of him. "If you can avoid provoking him, don't go looking for trouble."
"Most importantly, Gin's counter-surveillance abilities and instincts are among the best in the organization. He's meticulous and always cautious. When dealing with anyone he sees as a threat, he won't show the slightest mercy. Old people or children, he'll silence them without hesitation to keep secrets."
After saying so much in one breath, Kurumi could see with her own eyes that Conan's little face had become extremely grave.
Clearly, Conan did not think Kurumi was lying, and he had firmly committed her words to memory.
As for Aso Narumi beside Kurumi, she was completely stunned after hearing Kurumi's words.
There are actually such vicious people in Tokyo? As that thought arose in Aso Narumi's mind, it was immediately followed by the urge to get Kurumi out of the organization as soon as possible for her safety.
After hearing Kurumi's words, Conan felt even worse, and his mood grew increasingly heavy.
"Then do you know what kind of drug they used to turn me into this?" By now, Conan no longer cared that Aso Narumi was beside Kurumi. He asked anxiously, "Is there no antidote?"
"I'll look for you when we return to Tokyo and tell you the specific details about that drug. For now, I've told you what you need to be most careful about." Kurumi shrugged. "As for everything else~ maybe if you make me happy, I'll be merciful enough to tell you and save you from taking some needless detours."
"You!"
Kurumi's words were like a bucket of cold water, extinguishing the flames of revenge in Conan's heart.
He glared at Kurumi and said irritably, "Fine! As long as you keep your promise, I won't go back on my word either!"
With that, Conan turned and walked toward the door.
However, just as he pushed the door open and prepared to leave, Kurumi and Aso Narumi saw him turn back around.
"What is it? Is there something else?" Kurumi pursed her lips as she prepared to formulate a new plan.
Conan did not answer. Instead, he quickly walked to the window he had climbed through and silently put on the shoes he had taken off there.
Aso Narumi's Shock
Honestly, Conan's behavior was... pretty embarrassing.
Although Conan remained silent until he left the clinic, both Kurumi and Aso Narumi could see the faint blush of embarrassment on his face.
As the front door closed, Kurumi released Narumi's hand and locked the door.
At the same time, Aso Narumi found the window Conan had climbed through.
"Kurumi, he picked the lock with wire!" Aso Narumi picked up the wire Conan had left behind and waved it at Kurumi as she approached. "That little guy really is capable!"
Aso Narumi's exasperated yet amused tone made Kurumi laugh as well.
"He probably learned it from his dad in Hawaii." Thinking of Conan's all-purpose Hawaii, Kurumi could not help teasing him.
"Huh? Kurumi, do you know him that well?" Aso Narumi sensed the slightest hint of danger in Kurumi's words. That inexplicable feeling left her unsure what to say. She could not exactly say she had started getting jealous of an elementary schooler, could she?
"Know him? Maybe. After all, that guy has a big secret." After closing and locking the window, Kurumi pulled Aso Narumi back to the second-floor bedroom.
Aso Narumi sat on the bed, while Kurumi sat in the chair before the desk.
Filled with curiosity, Aso Narumi looked at Kurumi somewhat conflictedly. Her flawless face, paired with the sweet, cloying aura that made people want to sink into it, gave Aso Narumi a strange thought.
Not noticing that Aso Narumi was looking at her strangely, Kurumi considered it and decided not to hide Conan's identity from her.
After all, the two had spent so much time together. Kurumi believed Aso Narumi had more or less sensed the incongruity surrounding Conan.
After choosing her words, Kurumi said, "Sister Narumi, have you heard of Kudo Shinichi from Tokyo?"
Hearing Kurumi suddenly mention that famous Great Detective from Tokyo, Aso Narumi nodded, though she did not know why Kurumi had brought up that name. "Of course. I remember the media calling him the Heisei Era's Holmes."
After saying what she knew, Aso Narumi became even more puzzled. "But why bring him up all of a sudden, Kurumi? Don't tell me you admire him like those young girls do?"
There was a trace of sourness in Narumi's tone.
"Admire him?" Kurumi raised her brow, her tone full of disdain. "How could that be? Is my taste really that bad?"
Kurumi's answer left Aso Narumi unsure how to respond.
Was Kudo Shinichi really that bad? Probably not, right?
In her impression, Kudo Shinichi had quite a few female fans in Tokyo. Sometimes, even when she was drinking coffee at a Tokyo café, she could hear girls talking with admiration about wanting to meet that Great Detective and perhaps develop a more intimate relationship with him.
Still, Kudo Shinichi was quite handsome and capable. But in Narumi's eyes, that little brat truly was not worthy of Kurumi.
Just look at Kurumi.
She was cute and beautiful, had a great figure, an outstanding temperament, and a gentle personality. Aside from the fact that her work was a little shady, Kurumi was practically the perfect girlfriend in any man's eyes.
Hmph! Aso Narumi felt a little regretful.
If she were a man, she would pursue Kurumi even if it cost her everything.
But now... Aso Narumi lowered her head to look at her own rather well-endowed chest, then looked back at Kurumi. At that moment, she suddenly felt that being a girl was not so bad either.
At least she could openly snuggle up to Kurumi.
Naturally, Kurumi, sitting in the chair, had no idea what Aso Narumi was thinking as she stared at her.
"By the way, Kurumi, why did you suddenly mention Kudo Shinichi?" Aso Narumi asked somewhat awkwardly.
"Huh? Because he's Kudo Shinichi!" Kurumi answered honestly.
The moment those words fell, Aso Narumi shot to her feet, disbelief written all over her face. "What? Kurumi, are you joking?"
Startled by Aso Narumi's huge reaction, Kurumi stared blankly at her. "No. He really is Kudo Shinichi."
"No way, he... he's a child! Kudo Shinichi is a high school student, isn't he?" Aso Narumi's eyes widened before she suddenly realized something. "Wait, didn't you mention a drug earlier?"
Aso Narumi knew Kurumi would not joke around for no reason, especially since the incident with Conan breaking in had only just ended.
Kurumi snapped her fingers and nodded. "That's right. The drug we mentioned earlier."
After Kurumi explained that APTX-4869 was a poison with the side effect of making people younger, Aso Narumi stood there in a daze, unable to react for a while.
As a proper doctor, Aso Narumi knew that her knowledge and experience with drugs were not extensive enough, but in all her years of medical practice, she had never heard of any medicine in this world that could make a person smaller.
Or rather, the existence of such a drug completely shattered all medical common sense and understanding.
Deeply shaken by Kurumi's revelation, Narumi gradually calmed down.
"So Conan... no, Kudo Shinichi, wasn't poisoned to death after Gin forced him to take the drug. Instead, he turned into an elementary schooler. If this drug were researched further, then wouldn't it..."
Before Aso Narumi could finish, Kurumi interrupted, "Wouldn't it be enough to shock the entire world?"
"Exactly!" Aso Narumi nodded frantically. Even amid her shock, she suddenly felt a little excited.
As a doctor, after learning that such a drug existed in this world, Aso Narumi suddenly felt the urge to study it.
She did not want fame or profit. She simply wanted to verify it herself.
"If you want some, I can get you some." Kurumi said it without any burden. "But the drug is still in the development stage. And at present, only me and two other people in the organization know about this side effect. From what I know of them, they won't casually reveal something this important to others."
After saying that, Kurumi, feeling a little sleepy, let out a huge yawn.
Wiping the tears from the corners of her eyes, Kurumi stood and said to Narumi, "All right, Sister Narumi, I'm going to rest first. We still have to get up early tomorrow morning."
With that, Kurumi began undressing right in front of Narumi.
As the fabric covering Kurumi's body came off, Aso Narumi stared blankly at her. "Um... Kurumi, aren't you going to undress in the bathroom?"
Though she said that, Aso Narumi's eyes could not help roaming over Kurumi from top to bottom.
Even though the two had already bared everything before each other once at the hot springs.
Aso Narumi's Heart Skipped a Beat
Group 48874979
"The bathroom? Isn't it the same as here? I have to carry everything over anyway."
With the heat on, Kurumi did not feel cold at all. She undressed so quickly that by the time Aso Narumi finished speaking, Kurumi had only her last layer left, along with black stockings that heightened the allure of her legs.
Even Aso Narumi, another woman, found this breathtaking sight—enough to drive any man mad—almost impossible to resist touching.
Especially those two large, white...
"But Kurumi, aren't you cold? The bathroom doesn't have the heat on..." Blushing, Aso Narumi forced herself not to look below Kurumi's neck and stared at her face as she reminded her.
Hearing that, Kurumi thought for a moment. "That's true... but... I've already taken them off."
Kurumi placed her clothes on the chair, then walked to the suitcase in the corner and rummaged through it for fresh underwear and a towel. Once she found them, she stood up and said casually, "Forget it, I'll just walk over like this. I'm not afraid of the cold."
"But the curtains on the second-floor windows aren't drawn! What if someone sees you, Kurumi?" With that, Aso Narumi hurried out and quickly drew the curtains. Then she went into the bathroom, turned on all the lights, and switched on the heat.
Finally, after closing the bathroom window and drawing its curtains, Aso Narumi let out a breath.
"Honestly, Kurumi is way too careless!"
Recalling the beautiful sight that had just entered her vision, Aso Narumi suddenly had a rather inappropriate thought for some reason.
After doing all that, Narumi emerged from the bathroom and happened to run into Kurumi.
"Um, the soap and shampoo are on the shelf. You can use them directly, Kurumi." After once again stealing a glance at those stunningly beautiful things, Aso Narumi left the bathroom somewhat reluctantly.
"Then I won't stand on ceremony, Sister Narumi!"
Just as Aso Narumi was about to take a step after hearing Kurumi's voice behind her, Kurumi called out again. "Oh, right, Sister Narumi, do you want to bathe together?"
Faced with that overwhelmingly tempting invitation, Aso Narumi gritted her teeth.
"No, it's fine. I'll wash later."
Her face bright red, Aso Narumi tearfully rejected Kurumi's wonderful proposal and returned to the bedroom.
More than ten minutes later...
When the refreshed Kurumi entered the bedroom while drying her hair with a towel, she saw that the clothes she had piled on the chair had been folded by Aso Narumi and neatly placed on the desk.
"Sister Narumi, are you going to bathe? The bathroom is pretty warm!"
Wearing a yukata, Kurumi looked as elegant and beautiful as Pheobe emerging from the water as she asked Aso Narumi, who was sitting at the desk reading.
"Mm, I'll go now."
Ever since Kurumi entered the room, Aso Narumi had faintly smelled a delicate fragrance lingering in the air.
After placing a bookmark in her book and closing it, Aso Narumi took her own yukata and left the room.
After the farce involving Conan's break-in, it was already almost nine o'clock.
Aso Narumi, who firmly believed in the principle that sleeping early and rising early was good for the body, also felt somewhat tired today.
When she arrived in the bathroom and quickly undressed completely, Aso Narumi was about to put her changed clothes into the laundry basket when she suddenly noticed a set of black underwear resembling lingerie that Kurumi had placed inside.
Aso Narumi stared blankly at the clothes in the basket. As if possessed, she set her own clothes aside and picked up Kurumi's underwear and panties from the basket.
The lingerie felt smooth in her hands, and Aso Narumi could still sense Kurumi's lingering warmth on it.
Kurumi's underwear is really sexy... Aso Narumi stared blankly at the fabric in her hands, then, in a daze, held the lingerie in both hands and brought it before her nose.
Inhale!!!!!
Aso Narumi took a deep breath.
As Kurumi's unique body scent filled her nose, Aso Narumi felt as if her soul were about to sink into it.
"Kurumi... Kurumi..."
Her long legs unconsciously pressed together. Completely dizzy, Aso Narumi imagined some thrilling scene as one hand gradually slipped downward.
Several dozen minutes later...
In the bedroom, Kurumi, who had casually taken a medical book from Narumi's bookshelf to read, looked up at the time.
