Chapter 97: I kissed Mao Li Lan

"Alright, Big Sister Ran will be the referee. You set off in two minutes. If you still haven't found me in five minutes, it'll be your turn to hide."

Conan ran off, looking smug.

Once Conan left, the atmosphere suddenly became much sweeter.

The screeching of seabirds drifted into their ears, accompanied by the sound of waves slapping against the boat.

Looking up, the galaxy was vast and boundless; his vision felt expansive, and his heart and mind felt refreshed!

This was the true world for two.

Two minutes later, Ran asked curiously, "Aren't you going to look for Conan?"

"No need, accompanying you is more important."

Akaso Kaze smiled slightly, his top-tier charm instantly activated.

Ran's face turned red immediately.

In a dark corner of the cabin, Conan stared with wide eyes, calculating the time.

In another two minutes, he could declare victory.

At that time, he would make that Akaso Kaze hide constantly, make him crawl into the corners of the warehouse, the engine room, the kitchen, the toilet, the bathroom...

He would force him into a dead end and make him admit defeat voluntarily.

Heh heh, wanting to snatch Ran from me, that's simply a pipe dream.

He checked his watch; only one minute left.

"Conan, I've found you, right in the corner at the very back of the second-floor cabin."

"Huh?"

Conan was stunned.

He poked his head out and peered to both sides.

There was absolutely no one there; how did he find him?

"What are you looking at? I'm going back to the deck, you keep hiding."

Conan didn't believe it and ran up to the deck, *thump, thump, thump*.

Sure enough, Akaso Kaze was standing with Ran again.

"Damn it, how did he find me, how could it be so fast!"

"This time I'll definitely hide somewhere he can't find."

Conan turned his head and ran off.

"Conan, I've found you again, right in the storage room of the third-floor cabin."

"Please, little Conan, do try to hide better. Did you think I wouldn't find you just because you hid under the dining room table?"

"... Conan, you went to the wrong place, that's the women's restroom."

"Ah!"

Conan was going crazy.

He was covered in dirt and grime, his whole body full of messy things.

No matter where he hid, Akaso Kaze could find him within the allotted time.

This isn't Conan Science!

Could it be that he bribed the captain and checked the surveillance?

Conan's eyes lit up, a cold sneer appearing on his face.

I know a place that definitely has no surveillance.

Conan ran onto the deck and even specifically peeked at the front.

Very good, that guy Akaso Kaze was attracted by Ran's beauty and hadn't noticed him at all.

Conan came to the side, flipped over, jumped outside the railing, and hid under a lifebuoy.

Hugging the lifebuoy, Conan's eyes shone.

This is a blind spot for surveillance; even if he sees me walk over, he can only check the lifebuoys one by one.

There are dozens of lifebuoys along the side of the ship; by the time he finds me, the time will have long passed.

Let's see what you do this time!

"Pfft."

Akaso Kaze couldn't help but laugh out loud.

This kid Conan is just too funny.

Even if you jump into the sea, could you hide from my Void Eye?

Huh?

Akaso Kaze suddenly curled the corner of his mouth, having a wonderful idea.

"Ran, let's go find Conan. It wouldn't be good if he ran around everywhere and something happened."

"Okay." Mao Li Lan was feeling a bit worried.

Akaso Kaze took the opportunity to take her little hand.

I'm helping you find Conan, holding your little hand should be fine, right?

Mao Li Lan's body stiffened slightly, but she didn't pull away, letting Akaso Kaze lead her toward the second floor.

They arrived at the second floor, near the side of the ship.

Akaso Kaze suddenly pointed at the sky.

"Ran, look, the moon is so round today."

Ran subconsciously looked up.

Akaso Kaze reached out, pulled her in, and kissed her.

【Ding, Mao Li Lan has developed affection for you, current affection level is 6.】

【Ding, your relationship with your partner Mao Li Lan has made significant progress, reward magic: Space Gate (Basic).】

【Space Gate (Basic): Can connect any two spaces within 100 meters. Please note, do not cancel the magic while a human body is passing through, otherwise unpredictable consequences will occur.】

Heh heh, there's a reward for kissing a girl.

Things like this are just too awesome.

Akaso Kaze began to cast magic while feeling the softness at his lips.

Hand of Intent.

At this moment, Conan was hanging under a lifebuoy outside the ship's side, no more than ten meters away from the two.

Unfortunately, his position couldn't see the second floor.

Conan was excitedly calculating the time.

It was almost time.

In another minute, Akaso Kaze would definitely lose.

No, he had already lost now.

There were no footsteps on the deck; Akaso Kaze must still be far away.

Even if he found this place, it would be too late to check the dozens of lifebuoys one by one.

Heh heh, I won this round!

*Click. *

A strange, light sound.

The lifebuoy detached from the buckle.

Conan instantly lost his balance.

*Splash. *

He fell into the sea. ===== CHAPTER 99 =====
