"Look at my sister! Doesn't she fit your ideal type? Perfect blonde hair and blue eyes!"
Sera Masumi is channeling her salesman spirit.
While Yuzuru was looking at the photos, Sera Masumi was also closely observing his reaction.
She wanted to see how Yuzuru would react when he saw this little girl who had a similar temperament to his brown-haired loli but whose hair and eye colors were completely different.
Will it give us away?
Will it show that they know or are aware of it?
Yuzuru looked at the little girl in the photo with a cold expression and sharp eyes, his lips twitched almost imperceptibly, then he raised his head and gave Sera Masumi a gentle and harmless smile: "Sera-kun, I am a law-abiding young man."
Sera Masumi was taken aback for a moment, then realized that the other party had misunderstood, and quickly waved her hands to explain, "No, no, don't misunderstand! My sister just looks young! She, she's actually... a legal loli! Really! She just looks young!"
(Akai Mari, far away in the hotel: Achoo~ Why am I sneezing again?)
Seeing that Yuzuru Nanami still didn't seem interested, and even had a hint of "something's wrong with you" in her eyes, Sera Masumi decided to unleash her "ultimate move".
She lowered her voice and said mysteriously, "Um... if you're not satisfied with this one for my sister, if you think it's too small... I have a mother!"
Yuzuru: "?"
She paused, making sure she had Yuzuru's attention, then continued her pitch, her tone full of enticing "you're hitting the jackpot": "My mom and my sister look almost identical! Blonde hair, blue eyes, a hot body, sexy and aloof looks—she's a super beauty! Absolutely stunning! Yuzuru, would you be interested in meeting her? I can introduce you!"
Her eagerness to package and promote her mother made Yu Shengnan's lips twitch uncontrollably again; she was truly showing great filial piety.
I'm so grateful to you.
Does your mom know that you're "selling" her like this to others?
Are you sure she won't come over and clean house?
However, Yuzuru knew that Sera Masumi's seemingly whimsical and nonsensical words were actually all a test.
The main purpose was to test whether he knew about her mother, Mary Akai, whether he knew the identity of her mother's "aunt," and his true attitude towards the organization.
As for the absurd possibility of "classmate becoming father"?
Sera Masumi exclaimed: How is that possible!
Even though her mother is smaller now, she can still beat her to a pulp if she really gets physical.
She has that much self-awareness.
...
Sera Masumi's originally confident plan to test the waters completely backfired in front of Hanyu Nanasu.
She had hoped to extract crucial information about the antidote, Ai Haibara's identity, and Hanyu Nan's stance, but Hanyu Nan's answers were either watertight official statements or somewhat mocking rhetorical questions, leaving her unable to find any substantial leverage.
When asked indirectly about his thoughts on "certain mysterious drugs" or "suddenly shrinking his body," he looked blank and said, "Sera-kun, you have quite the imagination. Have you been reading too many comics?"
What frustrated her even more was that, in the midst of the conversation, she was led by Yuzuru Nan to reveal a lot of information about herself and her "sister".
For example, "Little Sister" has a rather aloof personality, is very agile, and hasn't been feeling well lately, coughing a lot; they just returned from London and aren't very familiar with Mihua yet; I even almost blurted out that "Little Sister" was wearing something she helped pick out today, something with a bear pattern...
Fortunately, she managed to brake suddenly at the last moment, breaking out in a cold sweat.
That was close!
This guy is too weird!
Looking at Yuzuru's handsome, harmless face, which always carried a gentle smile and seemed innocent, Sera Masumi experienced for the first time what it meant to be "a smile that hides a knife" and "unfathomable".
This guy is definitely a cunning old fox in sheep's clothing!
She even began to suspect that Yuzuru Nan had seen through her intentions all along, and that everything just now was just a joke to tease her.
"Um... Yuzuru, I... I suddenly remembered I have something to do, I haven't finished my homework yet! I have to go now!" Sera Masumi didn't dare to stay any longer. She was afraid that if they continued chatting, she would really reveal her mother's measurements and bank card password.
Watching Sera Masumi's hasty departure, the gentle smile on Hanyu Nan's lips gradually turned into a hint of amusement.
This kid's thoughts are written all over his face; he's still too naive.
Compared to her mother, who remained deep-thinking and highly vigilant even after transforming into a loli, she was like a newbie who had just left the beginner village and barged directly into a max-level boss's dungeon, thinking she had hidden herself very well.
However, her lively and somewhat silly demeanor adds a lot of fun to the peaceful campus life.
Just consider it having an interesting "cousin" around to keep you entertained.
Yuzuru turned his gaze back to the distant sky.
Akai Mary... Now that she's returned to Beika and sent her daughter to lead the charge, it's only a matter of time before this "sister from outside the domain" makes her own appearance, right?
or......
If necessary, he should pay a personal visit.
After all, she's his "aunt." How can an elder take the initiative to visit a younger person? If outsiders find out, they might think that Yuzuru doesn't know how to respect his elders.
He's the kind of person who truly respects the elderly and cares for the young.
Meanwhile, Sera Masumi, who had fled back to the classroom, lay on her desk, still shaken and looking terrified.
She took out her phone, hesitated for a moment, and then sent a message to the number saved as "sister":
[Mom, mission report. I think I... botched it. That Yuzuru Nan, he seems to know everything, yet he also seems to know nothing. He talks like he's been coated in oil; I couldn't get a straight answer from him at all. In fact, I almost got tricked into revealing everything about us—even your bear underwear... oh no, I mean, he almost figured out everything about our family background! It's terrifying! (╥﹏╥) He's definitely up to something!]
Not long after, my phone vibrated; a reply had arrived.
[Stay calm. Don't make any rash moves; continue to observe. Prioritize confirming Ai Haibara's identity and her relationship with Kusuo Hanyu. Be careful.]
Seeing her mother's calm reply, Sera Masumi took a deep breath and cheered herself up.
Okay, since testing doesn't work, let's try another method.
Initiate a flanking maneuver.
Start with that brown-haired loli, Ai Haibara!
She refused to believe that she, Sera Masumi, the future famous detective, couldn't handle a girl her own age.
(Mari Akai: No, daughter, you probably really can't handle this...)
