At that moment, there was a knock on the door of the room where the group was.
When the door opened, Han Chuanlong was standing there with a camera, looking like a pervert. Seeing Xiao Lan's surprised expression when she opened the door, he showed no remorse for disturbing her: "Not bad, that expression, I filmed it."
After saying that, he left with a smug look on his face.
Guangyou shook his head: "A gauze hat."
After Ryuu left, Sonoko happened to arrive at the room door, with Natsumi Kosaka and Masato Nishino beside her.
Sonoko was bored in her room. Although the cruise ship was luxurious, her family owned quite a few of them, and she was getting a little tired of them.
So she went to find Xiaolan to play together.
Ran was a little bored after she finished bandaging up, since Conan, Kouyu, and Ai were all around her. Ai was alright, being a girl, so they had some things in common. As for Conan and Kouyu, well... never mind.
Xiao Lan invited everyone into the room to sit down. As soon as they entered the room, the pigeon seemed to get tired of staying in one position and got up to flap its wings.
Masato Nishino's eyes widened instantly as he ran out the door, exclaiming, "I think I'd better give up!"
Then she covered her mouth and ran away.
Sonoko thought that the intense reaction was because there were too many beautiful women, and that Ryuu was a little shy.
It's no wonder Sonoko thought that way; the woman in the room was indeed a top-tier beauty.
Even the youngest, Ai, is a total ice queen.
For some reason, Sonoko grabbed Conan's hand and prepared for the two of them to go and call Urako Aoran to come and play as well.
After all, Pu Siqinglan is indeed very beautiful.
...
Conan and Sonoko arrived at the door of Urako Seiran's room. Urako Seiran readily agreed, but asked the two of them to wait for her at the door.
At this moment, the two noticed the photo frame on the table. There was a line of text written on the back of the photo frame: Sonoko thought that the photo frame contained a picture of Urako Seiran's boyfriend.
Pu Siqinglan's eyes showed a hint of panic, but she didn't show it. After responding, she quickly walked to the photo frame and laid it down so that the photo was facing down.
Sonoko sighed upon hearing that the person in the photo was Urako Seiran's boyfriend, clearly thinking of Kyogoku Makoto.
Everyone decided to have an afternoon tea in Xiaolan's room and chat.
As they chatted, everyone learned that Natsumi Kosaka had been living in Paris since she was twenty years old.
Natsumi Kosaka shrugged: "Yeah, that's why my Japanese sounds weird, and I'm not used to it."
Speaking of Japanese, Natsumi Kosaka recalled a phrase from her childhood: "Barushen Nikukadame".
Natsumi Kosaka interpreted this in a strange way, but she couldn't think of any other explanation.
For some reason, Conan's attention wandered, and he looked at Natsumi Kosaka's eyes and said, "Eh, Natsumi-san's eye color is..."
Natsumi Kosaka bent down, leaned closer to Conan, and said with a smile, "That's right, it's gray."
She clearly loves her eye color: "My mother and grandmother have the same color, and I think I inherited it from my great-grandmother!"
At this moment, Xiaolan noticed that Pusi Qinglan's eyes were also gray, which made Yuanzi think that most Chinese people had gray eyes, without thinking too deeply about it.
Xiao Lan felt that her name and Pu Siqinglan's name both contained the character "Lan," and she felt that they were very destined to be together.
Pu Siqinglan replied, "You are all using Japanese pronunciation, so the Chinese pronunciation should be Qinglan."
"So, my name is pronounced as Pu Si Qing Lan."
The Japanese word for "orchid" is pronounced almost identically to the Chinese word for "orchid," which piqued Xiao Lan's curiosity.
She was already very curious about China, a country with a cultural heritage of nearly five thousand years. Pu Siqinglan said, "So your Chinese pronunciation is Maolilan."
At this moment, Guangyou spoke up: "Qinglan has been abroad for a long time, right? Her pronunciation is a little inaccurate. She should be pronounced as Mouri Ran."
Guangyoufa's pronunciation is much more standard than Pusiqinglan's; in four words, it is perfectly clear and articulate.
Pu Siqinglan gave an awkward laugh: "Yes, I am of Chinese descent."
Ran read her name aloud to herself and chuckled, "The pronunciation is so cute! You have to teach me Chinese later, Guangyou. I want to take Shinichi to China for a trip. I'm so curious."
"And what about mine, Kōyū!" Sonoko was also a little curious about how she pronounced her own Chinese.
“Suzuki Sonoko,” Kōsuke replied to Sonoko.
Sonoko quietly read her own name to herself, finding the pronunciation of Chinese very interesting.
At this moment, Natsumi Kosaka asked, "Judging from your appearance, Miss Aoran, you should be about my age!"
Pu Siqinglan nodded: "Yes, twenty-seven years old."
"Me too!" Natsumi Kosaka was pleasantly surprised to find that they were born in the same year. "What month were you born in?"
Pu Siqinglan didn't hide anything and said, "I was born on May 5th."
This surprised Natsumi Kosaka even more: "My birthday is May 3rd, it's only two days short!"
Upon hearing their birthdays, Conan didn't hesitate for a moment and blurted out, "Then you two are only one day apart from me!"
He finally heard those words, and Guangyou's heart burst into laughter. His lips twitched wildly, as if he could no longer suppress his laughter.
Ai noticed that Kousuke was acting strangely and asked, "Kousuke, what's wrong?"
"That idiot, you could say he's smart, or you could say he's stupid." Guangyou finally managed to suppress his laughter, panting. "Isn't he just telling Ran his birthday? He's practically handing himself over to her!"
These words immediately snapped Ran out of her reverie, who was engrossed in the Chinese pronunciation. She pondered, "Only one day off, that's May 4th, just like Shinichi. What a coincidence! Could Conan really be...!"
