Chapter 338 Pleasant to the ear, wonderful, hentai!
Reigen Arataka was standing nearby.
Conan could no longer mess around with Wang Changsheng.
The three of them went to the restroom together, and then returned to the music room in silence.
The old policeman brought bedding, intending to sleep on the floor.
But now that there are so many more people, he has to prepare some more mattresses.
After another half hour of fussing and rummaging, once everything was tidied up, the group finally went to sleep.
Everything quieted down.
until--
"Snoring~"
"Hululuulu~"
A loud, resounding snoring echoed in the music room.
Wang Changsheng, Conan, Ran, Reigen Arataka, and Asai Narumi all silently sat up.
Hirata Kazuaki, who was already sitting, opened his bloodshot eyes, looking helpless.
Their gazes were all fixed on Uncle Mori and the old policeman, who were leaning against the wall and half-lying on the ground.
The old policeman was lying on the bedding.
He slept with his arms crossed over his chest, in a very proper posture.
The snoring sound was also very pleasant.
He was originally scheduled to go to sleep first, and then be woken up by Uncle Mori to take turns on duty.
However, he fell asleep.
Uncle Mori sat and watched for a while before falling asleep.
And he started snoring even more beautifully than the old policeman.
The sound is pleasing to the ear and deeply resonates with the heart.
Wang Changsheng and the others couldn't sleep at all.
Even Reigen Arataka, who usually falls asleep relatively quickly and is considered to be in a deep sleep, was abruptly woken up.
Conan and Wang Changsheng watched as the two chased each other, snoring loudly...
"Good heavens, won't this wake me up?" Reigen Arataka clicked his tongue in disbelief.
He had never seen anyone snore so loudly before.
Wang Changsheng was speechless: "Their snoring is even more synchronized than a two-person comedy act."
This time, he didn't gain any negative points. Instead, everyone around him nodded vigorously, their faces full of approval.
"Now you know my pain..." Conan sighed softly.
You know, he usually sleeps with Uncle Mori.
I had gotten a little used to Uncle Mori's snoring and could barely fall asleep while listening to it.
Unfortunately, another seeded player has joined the fray today...
He couldn't keep his eyes shut after being argued with by the two people in turn.
"/?-?-マ? Oh, sorry everyone, my dad is a bit too unreliable."
Xiaolan felt a little embarrassed; her father had made her lose face.
But he had no choice but to apologize to everyone on behalf of Uncle Mori.
"Speaking of which, didn't Uncle Mori say he was going to keep watch for the first half of the night? How long has it been? Ten minutes? Ten minutes? He's already lying down..."
Even the usually eloquent Wang Changsheng appeared pale when facing Uncle Mori.
It's like having a lot to say, but when the words get to your lips, you can't say anything at all.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry..." Xiaolan didn't know what to say, so she could only smile awkwardly.
Uncle Mori has completely humiliated her this time.
"I didn't expect Detective Mori to be..." Asai Narumi paused, organizing his thoughts.
"It's quite unique."
"Pfft." Wang Changsheng couldn't help but laugh out loud.
"~(*+﹏+*)~ Haha, ahaha..." Xiaolan could only laugh awkwardly and force a laugh.
Wang Changsheng was amused by Asai Narumi's words and laughed quite loudly.
However, neither their conversation nor their laughter disturbed Uncle Mori and the old policeman's sleep in the slightest; the two were completely unaffected.
"Uncle Mori's sleep quality is really good, Conan. Do you usually sleep with Uncle Mori at home?" Wang Changsheng asked Conan.
"Didn't I just say that? Now you know how I feel, right?" Conan's expression was slightly numb, and his face was pale, as if he was recalling some unpleasant memories.
He slept with Uncle Mori, and just listening to his snoring was enough.
But the attacks he usually faces are far more than that.
Uncle Mori sometimes suddenly kicks his legs and stretches his arms.
Conan would be caught off guard and get kicked or punched.
He had previously suspected that Uncle Mori was doing it on purpose, and that he was faking his deep sleep.
It's really just about making fun of yourself.
However, as time went on, he discovered that it was true.
"Sometimes I even have to go to the living room to sleep on the sofa!" Conan took the opportunity to complain to Ran.
"No wonder I sometimes wake up in the morning and see you sleeping outside. What's wrong with Dad?" Ran frowned. "How about you sleep with me from now on, Conan?"
"what?"
"what!"
Wang Changsheng and Conan exclaimed in unison.
Both of them paused in surprise and looked at each other.
"What do you mean, 'what'?" Conan glared at him.
"What's it to you?" Wang Changsheng scoffed, then immediately turned to Xiaolan and offered her advice.
"That's not really appropriate, Ran-neechan. Think about it, Conan is still so young, he's bound to be restless in his sleep. If you sleep with him, he'll kick and thrash around like Uncle Mori, and then you won't get a good night's sleep, will you?"
How could Wang Changsheng allow Conan to share a room with Ran right now? He absolutely would not agree!
How could we let Conan, that little brat, have such a good thing happen to him?
Don't even think about it!
no way!

Wang Changsheng chose to interfere and do his best to prevent this from happening.
Conan was initially quite shy, but as Wang Changsheng finished speaking, he became so angry that he wanted to get up on the spot and give Wang Changsheng a good beating.
"Don't try to ruin me!"
Conan's eyes darted around, and his voice suddenly turned into that of a green tea b*tch.
Instead of advancing, he retreated weakly and said, "Actually, what Brother Changsheng said is right. Although I usually sleep very quietly and don't move around much, I'm still young. What if I unintentionally disturb Sister Xiaolan while I'm sleeping?"
"It's okay, let me continue sleeping with Uncle Mori. I've actually gotten used to Uncle Mori's snoring. I just need to listen for two or three hours, and if I get too sleepy, I'll fall asleep."
"Even if I can't sleep, I can catch up on my sleep during the day. I just don't know if it will interfere with my studies at school."
"Although I would like to sleep with you, Sister Xiaolan, I'm worried that it might disturb you. Your courses are much more complicated than mine, and you need to have a lot of energy. So, I'd rather not. If all else fails, I can just sleep on the sofa occasionally, like I usually do."
Conan looked at Ran with a pitiful expression.
She brought to life the image of a child who was wronged but also very sensible and considerate of adults.
Sure enough, Xiaolan fell for it.
Upon hearing Conan's words, she immediately felt a pang of sympathy and said, "It's alright. You're just staying at our house anyway, how can we let you suffer like this? You can sleep with me from now on. You're so small, even if you kick me, you won't feel anything."
"Huh? Can I really sleep with Ran-neechan?" Conan looked up, seemingly in disbelief.
"Of course!" Xiaolan smiled warmly.
"Hehe, thank you, Sister Xiaolan!"
Conan thanked Ran, then turned around and gave Wang Changsheng a subtle, provocative look.
You brat, trying to ruin my good time?
No way!
Seeing that Ran had decided to have Conan share a room with her from now on, Wang Changsheng swallowed the words of dissuasion he was about to say.
Since they had already made their decision, he couldn't very well insist on saying anything more.
Otherwise, it wouldn't be persuasion, but an order.
"Alright, alright, is this how you play?" Wang Changsheng narrowed his eyes, his pupils reflecting Conan's slightly smug smile.
That calm yet dangerous look sent a chill down Conan's spine.
He quickly looked away and then suggested, "We definitely can't sleep now, so why don't we take turns keeping watch?"
"That's all we can do," Xiaolan nodded.
Seeing that no one was planning to go back to sleep, Asai Narumi slowly spoke up: "If everyone stays up all night, it'll be too boring. I remember seeing a deck of cards somewhere else, how about we play cards?"
"We happen to have five people, so we can take turns having three or four people play while leaving one or two people to keep an eye on things."
"Great! Great!" Xiaolan agreed with the suggestion and nodded repeatedly.
"I'm not very good at playing cards, but I learn very quickly!" Conan said, pretending to be an expert.
"Let's play cards for a while to pass the time," Wang Changsheng agreed.
Actually, he didn't care whether he slept or not. If he couldn't sleep, he would go into the World Tree space to help the World Tree organize its ecological environment.
Or play with your pets.
Let's have an in-depth conversation with Yui and explore the mysteries of life.
For example, researching artificial intelligence.
"In that case, I'll go look for it." Asai Narumi got up from the ground, put on his shoes, and went out alone.
"Should we let Dr. Asai go by himself?" Ran wanted to get up and accompany Asai Narumi, but she was too afraid to go out.
"It's alright. Even if the culprit isn't Secretary Hirata, he definitely won't dare to make any rash moves after seeing him arrested by us," Conan reassured him.
That is indeed the case.
They didn't have to wait long before Asai Narumi returned, carrying a deck of cards.
And so, the rest of the night...
Wang Changsheng and Conan took turns playing cards.
Uncle Maori and the old policeman took turns snoring.
A group of people spent the whole night "harmoniously".
Until daybreak.
The sun's brilliant rays pierced through the dense darkness, illuminating the ocean.
The police officer that Wang Changsheng and his group had been waiting for all night finally appeared before them with an air of nonchalance.
"Inspector Megure? It's you! You've finally arrived!" Conan was overjoyed when he saw the kind-looking figure leading a group of police officers. He greeted him and then yawned.
His yawn was like a switch being turned on, and Ran, Asai Narumi, and the others all opened their mouths and yawned as well.
When Inspector Megure saw Conan, he was taken aback at first, then his lips twitched twice: "Conan, kid? What are you doing here... Since you're here, what about Mori, bro...?"
As they were talking, Inspector Megure's gaze fell on Uncle Mori, who was lying on the ground, sleeping in a completely haphazard and unseemly manner.
"Could it be that you guys were the ones who called the police?" Inspector Megure chuckled dryly.
"Yes~" Conan nodded, "We came here because we received a request, but we didn't expect to encounter such trouble."
"Huh? Isn't this...?" Suddenly, Inspector Megure spotted Wang Changsheng. "Changsheng, what are you doing here?"
"Hello, Inspector Megure." Wang Changsheng greeted him politely. "We're here on vacation, and we just happened to run into Conan and his friends."
"That's not all," Conan interrupted. "It seems that one of Changsheng's elders also received a request."
"Oh?" Upon hearing this, Inspector Megure unconsciously pressed down his hat, which was being blown about by the sea breeze.
"Brother Mori is a detective, so it's normal for him to receive commissions. I wonder what kind of job your elder does, young Changsheng?" Inspector Megure looked at Wang Changsheng.
"Ah, my elder is Daidoji Sonomi. As for her job, I guess... she's a zaibatsu?" Wang Changsheng said hesitantly.
As soon as he finished speaking, Inspector Megure was stunned.
What the heck is a chaebol? Is that even considered a job?
Coming to his senses, Inspector Megure chuckled dryly twice: "Young Chosei, you mean your elder's family owns a company, right?"
"Yes, yes, that's what I mean. Aunt Yuanmei's job is to run a company." Wang Changsheng nodded innocently.
"I understand. So where are they now?" Inspector Megure asked.
"They should be at the guesthouse on the island right now," Conan answered for Wang Changsheng.
However, Inspector Megure continued to stare at Wang Changsheng until the latter nodded, at which point he looked away.
"I understand. Could one of you please explain the sequence of events to me?"
"Let me tell you." Conan seemed a little excited when the police arrived, and he briefly told Inspector Megure what had happened yesterday.
"Then who is this handcuffed person is...?" Inspector Megure's gaze fell on Hirata Kazuaki in the corner.
Judging from the current situation, he roughly guessed that this should be the suspect that Kogoro Mouri and his team had caught, but he still wanted to ask again to confirm.
"Oh, right, and this Mr. Hirata Kazuaki." Conan also remembered this person and explained to Inspector Megure, "He is the village chief's secretary on this island. Yesterday, when we were guarding the scene here, he secretly peeked at us from outside the window over there. Uncle Mori thought his behavior was very suspicious and suspected that he might be the murderer in this case, so he detained him here."
"Even so, you can't just detain people like that..." Inspector Megure muttered.
Conan, however, seemed to have expected this, and said with a grin, "It was that sleeping policeman who detained the person, not us."
