Chapter 358 The Deterioration of Family Affection



The helicopter arrived at the nearest hospital to the hotel as quickly as possible.

Because the hospital received a patient who had also been bitten by a sea snake yesterday, they have the relevant antivenom in stock.

"Bang!"

The ward door was violently kicked open with a loud bang.

Who are you people?!

Matsuzaki Masahiko, who was accompanying his fiancée, was startled by the sudden situation and instinctively stood up to protect her in front of his fiancée, Toda Takako.

"Hey, this is a hospital." Their other companion also stood up, cautiously watching the group of men in black filing in.

But the group of men in black seemed not to hear what they said, completely ignoring them, and went straight to the hospital bed.

After subduing Matsuzaki Masahiko and Toda Takako, who were attempting to resist, one of the men in black forcibly pulled up Toda Takako's hand, which was receiving an IV drip, and took out a photograph. After comparing it with the photograph repeatedly, he nodded solemnly.

“That’s right, the wound is the same as the snake venom that Master Yuzuru and the others were bitten by, so it can be confirmed that it was bitten by the same kind of sea snake.”

"Okay, notify the hospital and prepare the serum."

The man in black leading the group waved his hand decisively, signaling to release Matsuzaki Masahiko and the other man who had been restrained.

Matsuzaki Masahiko glared angrily at the men in black who were leaving, and demanded, "Who are you people? What gives you the right to do this?"

"Yahiko, haven't you figured it out yet!" His tall companion quickly realized, "There's some rich young master who got bitten by a sea snake, and they're unsure what kind it is, so they came to Takako to confirm."

As he spoke, he lifted his leg to chase after him.

"No, Yahiko, calm down."

On the hospital bed, Toda Takako clutched her hand, her face contorted in pain. She shook her head with difficulty and spoke up to stop the two.

They were just a group of ordinary college students, and these men in black were clearly not people they could afford to mess with.

"Damn it! They don't even treat ordinary people as human beings!"

After hearing what Takako Toda said, Masahiko Matsuzaki angrily punched the wall.

The tall companion also shouted, "I'm going to complain to the cabinet! I'm going to complain to the cabinet!"

Just as they were venting their frustrations, a voice came in.

"Hehe, you three shouldn't be so sure of yourselves!"

A middle-aged man wearing gold-rimmed glasses walked into the ward. Amidst the puzzled gazes of the others, he walked up to Matsuzaki Masahiko, a seemingly kind smile on his face, and said, "I heard you have a younger sister named Matsuzaki Haru, who was arrested by the police yesterday, is that right?"

Upon hearing this, the three college students in the ward were stunned.

Yesterday, Conan, relying on some subtle clues, discovered that Toda Takako was not bitten accidentally, but was deliberately bitten by a sea snake while she was in the sea by her fiancé's sister.

Although Matsuzaki Haru finally showed genuine remorse and Toda Takako chose not to pursue the matter further, Conan ignored their pleas and called the police, sending the man to jail.

“We can get your sister out today, but on the condition that what just happened will be treated as if nothing ever happened.”

The middle-aged man looked at the three silent people, his smile unchanged.

After stating his conditions, he turned and left the ward, not forgetting to add as he left, "Of course, if you insist on making trouble, that's fine too, because the cabinet can't interfere."

In Japan, a capitalist country, the Suzuki Group can practically control everything.

...

In a private ward, Eri Kisaki and Nanami Hanyu, who had just received their serum injections, were brought in.

Xiao Lan sat between the two of them, quietly waiting for them to wake up.

Time passed slowly, and Eri, who had been sleeping soundly, twitched her eyelids. The next second, as if she had thought of something terrible, she suddenly opened her eyes and screamed in terror:

"Yuzuru, don't go! You promised me!"

"Mom, you're finally awake!"

Xiaolan was startled by the sudden shout, but then a joyful smile bloomed on her face.

When Eri heard Ran's voice, she was still somewhat dazed, her eyes still filled with lingering fear and confusion.

After a long while, she slowly came to her senses, looked at Xiaolan, and said in a voice with barely concealed nervousness, "Xiaolan, Yuzuru..."

Ran quickly took Eri's hand and comforted her, "Mom, don't worry, Nan is fine, he's still sleeping."

As she spoke, she pointed to the hospital bed next to her.

Following the direction Ran pointed, Eri looked over eagerly. When she saw Yuzuru's face, which carried a faint smile even in his sleep, her heart, which had been hanging in suspense, finally settled down completely.

Immediately afterwards, an indescribable emotion welled up in her heart, causing Eri's eyes and cheeks to flush red.

For a man to risk his life to save you, what an immense debt of gratitude that is.

No one could possibly bear such a great debt of gratitude.

Especially before that, some subtle things happened.

Those events, like sparks, ignited a unique emotion in Eri Kisaki's heart.

"Mom, what did Nan promise you?" Xiaolan didn't notice that Fei Yingli's mood was off, but was curious about what she meant by what she had just said.

Eri Kisaki paused for a moment, a hint of panic flashing in her eyes, but she quickly regained her composure and said, "It's nothing, it's just that Nanami said she would definitely save me."

She sat up, picked up her glasses from the side and put them on. In this unintentional action, she herself did not realize that she had unconsciously changed how she addressed Yuzuru.

Just like before today, she also had a lot of feelings for Yuzuru, but those feelings were mostly familial because of Ran.

But after today, everything changed.

That kind of family affection seemed to have been infused with new elements, becoming more complex and subtle.

"Is that so..."

Ran nodded, then looked at Eri and asked, "Mom, why did you go swimming with Nan so early in the morning and get bitten by a sea snake? What happened after you drank last night?"

She had many questions and doubts about this matter.

Faced with her daughter's questioning, Eri Kisaki demonstrated her talent as a lawyer.

Although her heart was already churning with turmoil, she remained outwardly calm and composed.

With just a few words, he cleverly dispelled Xiaolan's doubts and successfully shifted the topic to how to thank Yusheng Nan.

"Oh dear, I was able to survive thanks to Xiaonan this time. How can I repay her?" Eri Kisaki pretended to think, looked at Ran, and said with a hint of teasing, "How about we just marry our Ran off to Xiaonan tomorrow? No dowry required!"

"mom!"

Xiaolan's face instantly turned red, and steam began to rise from her forehead. All her previous doubts were thrown to the back of her mind.

"Mom, what are you saying... Are you really getting married tomorrow?"
