"Don't pull me, I'm not drunk! I want to keep drinking."
Kogoro Mouri slapped away Lin Yi's hand and picked up his glass to keep drinking.
"I'm getting a divorce, I have to celebrate properly! Give me two more drinks!"
The last sentence was directed at the Bartender.
"No need... we're leaving."
Lin Yi said to the Bartender, then grabbed Kogoro Mouri's hand, trying to drag him away by force.
However, Kogoro Mouri had some training after all; he grabbed Lin Yi's wrist, twisted, and pushed, shoving him away again.
"Hurry up! Stop dilly-dallying!"
Kogoro Mouri fished his wallet out of his pocket and slapped it onto the counter, signaling the Bartender to keep the drinks coming.
Lin Yi regained his balance. It seemed he wouldn't be able to get away without getting serious.
Just as Lin Yi was about to step forward, a hand rested on his shoulder and held him back.
Lin Yi turned around and was stunned to discover that the person holding him back was actually Ran!
How did she appear here?
Could it be... she had been following them the whole time?
Seeing that Ran's eyes were still slightly red, she must have been crying quite a bit earlier.
"Yi, let me handle this..."
Although Ran was smiling, it was a smile filled with murderous intent.
Lin Yi nodded and silently glanced at Kogoro Mouri, who was still drinking.
It's not that I don't want to help you, it's that I can't help you.
Ran slowly walked over and tapped Kogoro Mouri on the shoulder.
"Don't be a busybody!"
Kogoro Mouri impatiently shrugged his shoulders, shaking the hand off, "Stop disturbing my drinking."
Ran tapped his shoulder again.
Kogoro Mouri impatiently slapped it away, "If you want to go back, go back yourself! Stop bothering me. If you bother me again, do you believe I'll hit you?"
Ran tapped Kogoro Mouri's shoulder a third time.
Slap!
Kogoro Mouri irritably placed his glass on the counter and turned around, shouting, "Do you really think I wouldn't dare hit you?"
After turning around and discovering it was Ran, Kogoro Mouri froze for a moment, then rubbed his eyes and said with a puzzled look, "Eh? Ran, why are you here... You can't come in here if you're under eighteen..."
Before he could finish his sentence, Ran grabbed him by the collar with one hand, dragged him off the seat, and punched him directly in the stomach with the other.
This punch was fast and fierce.
It made Kogoro Mouri's face contort, and with a painful "Oof," his eyes went wide, and he passed out cold.
Ran grabbed the wallet from the counter and dragged Kogoro Mouri out of the hotel just like that.
The Bartender, the Waiter, and the other customers were all stunned.
"Excuse me... sorry for the disturbance." Lin Yi paused, then pointed at the Bartender and reminded him, "Your drink is overflowing."
The Bartender looked down, hurriedly put down the shaker, and used a towel to wipe the counter.
After leaving the bar, the task of carrying Kogoro Mouri fell onto Lin Yi.
Although Ran didn't say much on the way back to the Agency, she exuded a faint, visible murderous aura.
Lin Yi tactfully shut his mouth and didn't say any nonsense.
He obediently carried Kogoro Mouri to the third floor of the Agency. After throwing him into his room, Ran pushed Lin Yi outside and said, "Alright, Yi. There's nothing more for you to do here... You should head back first."
"Actually... I can stay here tonight," Lin Yi said.
"You should go back today, otherwise Yoshino will get angry again."
After Ran pushed Lin Yi out the door, she closed the door behind her and locked it with a click.
Lin Yi called out a couple of times, but seeing no response, he could only stomp down the stairs and leave.
On the balcony of the room, Ran watched Lin Yi's figure gradually disappear into the distance before returning inside.
On his way home, Lin Yi used the crystal tear to open Ran's third-person perspective to see what she wanted to do after sending him away.
He saw Ran return to Kogoro Mouri's room, take off his coat, put his feet back on the bed, and tuck him in.
Such a considerate action left Lin Yi feeling quite surprised.
Not only was Ran not angry, but she was also taking such meticulous care of Kogoro Mouri?
Well... that makes sense, she is an angel after all.
A person as kind as Ran would certainly not do anything terrifying.
Since that punch knocked Kogoro Mouri out cold, she should have cooled off by now.
Just as Lin Yi was thinking this, he saw Ran making other strange movements.
She opened the built-in wardrobe, pulled out another quilt, and covered Kogoro Mouri with it again.
Hmm? What is she planning? Is she afraid Kogoro Mouri will catch a cold?
While Lin Yi was wondering about Ran's actions, she went to get a third quilt and laid it over Kogoro Mouri.
Could it be... Ran is taking revenge on him?
Covering him with such thick quilts to overheat him and prevent him from sleeping peacefully... Well, this method of revenge is actually quite cute.
A smile couldn't help but appear on Lin Yi's face.
However, Ran's actions didn't stop. After covering Kogoro Mouri with the third quilt, she left the bedroom, returned to her own room, and brought over the two quilts from her own bed.
She laid them over Kogoro Mouri once more.
A total of five quilts... That's a bit much.
Kogoro Mouri would probably be woken up by the heat in less than an hour.
Lin Yi's brow furrowed slightly, but it soon relaxed.
Although there were many quilts, this method of revenge was essentially the same.
Thinking about what Kogoro Mouri had said and looking at what Ran was doing now, it was simply too weak, okay?
Ran was already being very merciful!
Just as Lin Yi thought this, he saw Ran perform a strange action.
She backed up. She stepped back.
Then, she took two running steps.
She jumped up.
She bent her knees.
She slammed heavily onto Kogoro Mouri!
"..."
Lin Yi's footsteps stopped instantly.
He silently watched Ran continuously beat Kogoro Mouri—kicks, knee strikes, elbow strikes, punches, and roundhouse kicks!
Even through five layers of quilts, Lin Yi could still see Kogoro Mouri's face contorted in pain.
Oh... so that's what was going on.
Covering him with five quilts was to dampen the impact.
I was really too shallow.
Lin Yi silently turned off the third-person perspective, pretending he hadn't seen anything.
