The methods for resolving yandere Yoko, yandere Ran, and yandere Sonoko are different.
The former two were resolved by gradually decreasing their affection, which Release freed them from their yandere state.
As for Sonoko, it was when Lin Yi completed his escape and announced his victory in front of Sonoko that she immediately broke free from her yandere state.
Lin Yi guessed that this might be related to personality, after all, Yoko and Ran are both gentle women.
As for Sonoko, after being taught by her strong female CEO mother, her personality leaned towards a female CEO.
Gentle women need to be warmed up little by little.
As for female CEOs, they need to be directly defeated.
This is Lin Yi's current guess, as for whether it is the case, he can only try to trigger the shura field trial card again next time.
Only after letting Eri Kisaki, this strong woman, enter yandere mode will he know.
Lost in thought, Lin Yi suddenly realized that he still didn't know why Sonoko had kidnapped and imprisoned him.
Sonoko Okino wanted to scratch his face.
Was it because she thought he was too handsome, and worried about him being snatched away?
Ran wanted to break his hands and feet.
Was it because he was too good at flirting with girls? After drinking a bottle of 1988 vintage vinegar, she wanted to break his hands and feet to make him behave.
Why did Sonoko imprison him? She had said before that it was to monopolize him.
But on closer inspection, this theory didn't hold water.
If Sonoko really wanted to imprison him and monopolize him,
it wouldn't be as simple as putting him in shackles. Instead, she would directly chain him in a dungeon and use him as a tool. That would be the correct way to imprison someone.
Filled with curiosity, Lin Yi directly asked Sonoko, "Why did you imprison me?"
"Because I was kidnapped several times when I was little."
Sonoko said softly, "I have shadows from those events… so I wanted to find a boyfriend who could give me a sense of security! No matter where I get kidnapped, he would be the first to rescue me!"
After hearing Sonoko's "motivation," Lin Yi suddenly understood.
No wonder Sonoko entered yandere mode after being kidnapped by Monewaki Saori.
It turned out that Monewaki Saori had inadvertently stepped on Sonoko's sore spot.
In that case… this imprisonment was more like a test.
He had spent seven days giving Sonoko a satisfactory answer.
Sigh, this was… really not easy.
However, it was quite worth it.
Lin Yi thought secretly.
Because in the future, when he had to do some shady things, he couldn't always rely on those extras to help him.
They were only helping him because of the money, and had no loyalty to speak of.
Moreover, if he were to come into contact with Rena Mizunashi, Vermouth, and other underworld flowers with max reconnaissance abilities, those extras would be even more useless.
They would probably see through their facade and expose the truth with just a few words.
That night, Shuichi Akai hid in the sewer and couldn't observe those extras.
Otherwise, with his observational skills, he could have easily seen that these people were not killers who made a living by killing.
Now Sonoko listened to him, and those bodyguards listened to Sonoko.
Then Lin Yi could be considered to have indirectly controlled a group of well-trained bodyguards.
— — — — — — — —
At night, Lin Yi came out of the bedroom.
There were still bodyguards waiting outside.
They only saw Lin Yi come out, but didn't see Sonoko, and immediately became alert: "Where is Miss Sonoko? How is she?"
The Suzuki Foundation adopted a lifetime employment system.
Once these bodyguards accepted the Suzuki Group's employment, they would have to stay in the Suzuki Foundation until retirement. Naturally, they were very concerned about the safety of their employer.
Seeing their nervous expressions, Lin Yi was very satisfied, because if nothing unexpected happened in the future, they would be his subordinates.
Who doesn't like responsible subordinates?
Lin Yi said, "Sonoko is fine… Go get a set of Sonoko's clothes and prepare dinner."
"Clothes?"
The bodyguard was stunned for a moment, and asked with a puzzled face, "What do you need clothes for…"
Before the bodyguard could finish speaking, he was nudged by his companion's elbow, interrupting his words.
"I understand… I'll send them over to you later."
After saying that, he pulled the naive bodyguard away.
Half an hour later.
Lin Yi and Sonoko came to the living room for dinner.
Looking at the harmonious appearance of the two, the bodyguards standing at the door were dumbfounded.
Previously, their young lady had imprisoned the other party. After the other party broke free and spent some time with the young lady in the room, they made up?
Wasn't this guy's temper a little too good?
Lin Yi put down his chopsticks and said to the two bodyguards guarding the door, "Alright, you don't need to stand guard here anymore. Go get some food."
The two bodyguards didn't move. The person who paid them was surnamed Suzuki, not him, so naturally they didn't need to listen to him.
Lin Yi gave Sonoko a look.
Sonoko said, "From now on, his words are my orders. Understand?"
The two bodyguards looked at each other, then nodded and said, "Understood, Miss."
"Then why aren't you leaving?" Sonoko said.
"Yes, Miss."
The two bodyguards didn't linger, turned and left the dining room, and closed the door behind them.
This matter was significant. They had another superior, so they naturally had to report it to Captain Suzuki.
After Captain Suzuki heard this, he said, "Just do as Miss Sonoko says."
After dismissing the two bodyguards, Captain Suzuki immediately reported the matter to Shiro Suzuki.
Lin Yi didn't know about Captain Suzuki's actions, but even if he did, he wouldn't care.
While eating dinner, Lin Yi said to Sonoko, "I've been living here for so many days, why haven't I seen anyone else?"
Choosing to be a scumbag in Conan, Chapter 379
Sonoko said with a grin, "Because this is my villa!"
"Yours?"
Despite having guessed it, Lin Yi was still a bit surprised.
"Mm-hmm." Sonoko nodded and said, "My father gave it to me for my sixteenth birthday this year."
After a pause, Sonoko continued, "But I prefer living at home. This place is too big, and living alone feels lonely... so I leave it to the butler to manage."
Even though Lin Yi was wealthy, he still felt a bit envious.
Having a father who can gift you a villa is truly a blessing.
