The mother and daughter looked at Akashi slightly strangely.
Ran scratched her head and smiled shyly:
"It just so happens that I haven't been to the bank in a long time~"
Hearing this, Eri felt as if she had eaten a lemon:
"Yes, yes, just go play with your sister Ran, don't worry about me!"
"Originally I wanted to take Akashi to the amusement park!"
"It seems that Akashi doesn't want to see me!"
The vinegar smell is almost overflowing!
Ran couldn't help but said: "Mom, where is this?"
Seeing this, Akashi struggled to get out of Ran's arms.
He climbed into Eri's lap as she sat upright, gently cupping her radiant face in his tiny hands. Without hesitation, he leaned in and pressed a kiss to her lips, the gesture both innocent and disarming.
Then, wrapping his small arms around her, the young shota spoke in a playful, endearing tone:
"No, I just want to go to the bank first. I'll go to the amusement park with Auntie Eri later!"
He knew exactly how to wield his youthful charm, effortlessly using his adorable demeanor to diffuse tension. The little succubus was a master of acting like a baby, and Eri was helpless against it.
Her feigned anger dissolved in an instant. A warm smile spread across her face, all traces of jealousy vanishing as if they had never been there.
"Okay, you go play with Ran!"
"I have to go back to the law firm to work overtime today. I will take you to the amusement park next time I have the chance!"
And Ran couldn't help but ask:
"Mom, is it still the same case as last time?"
"Yes, the real estate company's matter is not so easy to solve."
Saying this, Eri stretched out her hands and stretched herself.
Her sexy body becomes more and more prominent!
Immediately, she put her hands together and hugged Akashi tightly as if she didn't need any money.
"Okay, Akashi, get up, let's go wash up!"
"Ran, hurry up and make breakfast!"
Saying this, Eri hugged Akashi and walked out of the room.
Ran's nose is slightly wrinkled.
But seeing that Akashi would be with her later, she didn't bother with her mother too much!
As for what she just came over to tell Akashi.
She forgot all about it!

In the morning, four people appeared on the road outside Yotsubishi Bank.
Kogoro looked at his daughter holding a little boy and couldn't help but say:
"Ran, do you need to hold him like that?"
"This kid is not your biological brother!"
Ran chuckled: "Not a real brother, but closer than a real brother!"
"Akashi is still too young. He will be exhausted after walking such a long way."
Conan, the little devil who followed behind, had a distorted expression.
Then what am I?
Damn kid, he's still holding Ran's neck!
Is that a place he can touch?
Still sticking to Ran's lips, ugh, despicable!
That's obviously where I should be!
Jealousy almost twisted Conan's mind beyond recognition.
He couldn't figure it out.
We are both boarding children, why are we treated so differently!
He also wants to stick to Ran, and he also wants to be lifted up!
Why can that kid do it but he can't?
And obviously, the girls passing by on the road told him the answer.
"What a cute little boy!"
"He's so handsome, he could be a child star."
"Is this your brother? He's so cute, can you give me a hug?"
The attention of all the women passing by fell on the succubus shota, and they couldn't help but come up to strike up a conversation.
As for the big blue-skinned rat following behind?
They completely ignored him like they didn't see or notice him.
Ran gently but firmly refuses the approach of all the bad women.
Then, she said to Kogoro with some pride:
"Dad, Akashi's charm is as you can see."
"If I don't hug him tighter and get kidnapped by a bad woman on the road, I won't be able to explain it to my mother!"
Kogoro also saw Akashi's amazing charm for the first time, and he was speechless!
——
As the group arrived at Yotsubishi Bank, the bustling noise of the outside world faded into a quieter hum.
Inside, the atmosphere was more orderly, with fewer people scattered around. Ran reluctantly set Akashi down, allowing him to stand on his own.
Akashi, however, immediately noticed a familiar figure at one of the counters.
The woman wore glasses and a ponytail—a simple disguise—but he recognized her instantly.
Miyano Akemi!
Shiho's sister.
A peripheral member of the Black Organization.
His former girlfriend.
Despite the slight haggardness on her delicate face, her beauty remained undiminished. Her bright blue eyes, as vivid as he remembered, gleamed with the same intensity as when they first met—back when he had accidentally bumped into her with his car.
Clad in a grey bank uniform that accentuated her slim figure, Akemi exuded an elegant allure. Beneath the hem of her skirt, her slender legs, partially covered by sheer stockings, drew attention with every subtle movement.
Yet, her demeanor was far from calm. She appeared anxious, glancing repeatedly at the clock on the wall.
Akashi knew exactly what this meant.
She's preparing to act.
Still, something felt off.
Why is this happening so soon?
By his calculations, Conan had only recently been transformed by the APTX 4869. The timeline seemed rushed; the events unfolding now should have taken much longer to occur.
He mentally reviewed his current situation, pondering his next move.

Akashi sighed inwardly as he reviewed his stats.
After last night's uninterrupted Yin energy absorption, he had accumulated over 5,000 points. However, it still wasn't enough to transform into his adult form, as the required threshold was a daunting 10,000 Yin energy.
Though his power had not yet fully matured, the accelerated progression of events disrupted his plans.
A sense of urgency crept into him. Had he been too conservative in gathering Yin energy these past few days?
Still, Akemi's situation couldn't be ignored. Even in his current state, unable to unleash his full potential or transform, he resolved to confront Gin and Vodka if necessary.
After all, with skills like Quick Draw and Rapid Fire Shot, he felt reasonably confident.
Additionally, he still had three check-in attempts left for the day. If the system played its cards right, there was hope yet.

"Alright, system," Akashi muttered inwardly. "I won't complain today. Just give me something good!"
With that, he initiated the check-in process.
The bank's interior shimmered in his mind, appearing on the system's interface. A vibrant purple light filled the screen, coalescing into a noble treasure chest.
When the chest opened, streams of radiant energy surged into Akashi's body.
He held his breath in anticipation, eyes shining with expectation.
But the moment he saw the rewards, his expression darkened.
...Seriously?
