A Detective: I Believe in Science

Chapter 200 Are You Empathizing With Others?

Looking at his masterpiece in the house, Noah showed a gratified smile on his face, and he hung all the bags he bought on the wall of Huiyuan's bedroom.

As for why he can enter and leave Huiyuan's bedroom casually, the reason is very simple. He didn't come in through the door. Noah expressed no concern about whether Huiyuan would be angry with him for breaking in without permission.

"Seeing so many luxurious bags, I guess Xiao Ai is too late to be happy, how can I have the mood to think about such a small problem."

Of course, Noah didn't favor one over another, and bought some gorgeous clothes for his aunt and a watch for his uncle.

When asked where the money came from, Noah casually mentioned Suzuki Shiro's name, saying that he had a close relationship with the Suzuki family, and that the money was given by him because he helped the other party solve their troubles.

The two nodded in agreement. After all, they also heard from Noah that the eldest lady of the Suzuki Group was his classmate.

After Huiyuan returned home, when she saw the new clothes on her auntie, her eyes were a bit puzzled. She, who was well-informed, could tell the value of the clothes at a glance. Considering their family's financial resources, it might be a bit difficult. Could it be...

"Auntie, did our family win the lottery?"

"No, why do you ask that suddenly?"

Mieko's mind was not as fast as Haibara's, and she would lose track of her train of thought for a while, Haibara didn't explain much, she shook her head to indicate that it was okay, and walked to her room.

Walking to the door, Huiyuan frowned when she heard a slight movement coming from inside. There was someone in the room. She remembered that she locked the door before going out.

I pressed the doorknob, but it didn't open. Then I realized that this person didn't enter through the front door. At home, there was only one person who could enter his room without opening the door.

"Noah, who told you to break in without permission, hurry up..."

Before she could finish speaking, Huiyuan was attracted by the bags hanging in the house. They were all things she had dreamed of since she came out of the organization, and she couldn't reach them.

"Look at the gift I chose for you, do you like it?"

"Uh-huh……"

Huiyuan nodded excitedly, this gift is not too good, she wants to own these bags even in her dreams.

Rushing to the place where the bag was hanging, Huiyuan estimated the height, and the eyes he looked at Noah began to look wrong. This soul really has no eyesight, she can't reach it...

When Noah saw Huiyuan trying to stretch his body and wanted to touch the bag, he showed a narrow smile on his face. Huiyuan was so cute at this time, but after seeing Huiyuan's glaring eyes, he smiled and stepped forward He took off the bag and handed it to Hui Yuan.

"You picked up money, or won the lottery. You are so generous all of a sudden."

At this time, Huiyuan also knew where the clothes his aunt was wearing came from, and it was obvious that Noah bought them, but he couldn't figure out where he got so much money.

"Do you remember the last time we went to pick mushrooms together?"

"Well, remember, in order to avoid that hunter, I sprained my foot."

"Well, didn't Conan and the others follow the treasure map to hunt for treasure the next day? When I was looking for them, I found a bunch of gems by the way. When I came back, please ask Kidd to help me out. The money just arrived today."

Huiyuan couldn't help but lament Noah's shit luck, she knew about the treasure hunt, a treasure map that had been circulating for an unknown number of years actually contained treasure.

"How much money is exchanged, so that you can buy so many things."

"300 billion."

"It's okay... wait... 300 billion?"

Huiyuan was bewildered and surprised, how many gems would it take to exchange such a large sum of money, and then became excited again, now he no longer has to worry about research funds.

"I didn't expect there to be so many. I thought it would be good to have at most a billion."

"Why didn't you tell me in advance, let me pick a few good-looking ones first, what's the use of exchanging them for money."

... Heh, woman, it has changed so fast. Just now I cared about money, but now I want gems.

"Don't worry, I have a gift for you. Here, I specially picked it for you. It looks good."

Noah mysteriously took out a red gemstone from his pocket and handed it to Huiyuan, which was one of the ones he left behind.

Looking at the ruby ​​in her hand, Huibara thought about it again, because its shape happened to be similar to a heart, and Noah said that it was specially chosen for herself, so she couldn't allow her to think about it.

"Does he like me?"

Thinking of this, Huiyuan's face turned red, and Noah who was waiting for the evaluation was puzzled. Why is this child's face so ugly? Is there something wrong with this gem?
"Xiao Ai, Xiao Ai, wake up, what are you thinking, is there something wrong with this gem, or should I change it for you?"

"No, no, I want this one."

Suddenly clenching the ruby ​​in her hand, Huiyuan was afraid that Noah would snatch it back. Her satisfaction with this gift was far higher than those expensive bags.

"It's fine as long as you like it. Whenever you want to talk about it, I have a few more."

"and also?"

Huiyuan, who had calmed down a little, realized the problem in Noah's words. He still had some in his hand. Who else would he want to give it to?

"Give it to me. I need these things for my research recently. I originally planned to ask you to help me find some, but I didn't expect that there are ready-made ones."

"...Hehehe, then your experiment is really not something that ordinary people can supply."

Although he didn't know what Huiyuan wanted the gem to study, Noah still handed over all the remaining gems. Anyway, it's useless to keep this thing for himself, and it might be exchanged for money in the end.

Seeing Noah's witty behavior, Haibara nodded in satisfaction, and now he doesn't worry about who the gem will be given to.

……

When he went to school the next day, Haibara took the ruby ​​with him without any hesitation, with a faint smile on his face, and he looked... well, quite rich.

"Wow, Huiyuan, your gemstone is so beautiful, where did you buy it. I want one too."

As soon as she walked into the class and sat down on her seat, Ayumi surrounded her, her eyes were fixed on the ruby ​​in front of Haibara, and her eyes revealed longing.

"This was given to me by someone else. It's a small gadget, and it's worthless. It should be sold on the street."

"Then I'll ask my mother to take me to buy one after school."

Ayumi is deceiving, but Conan is not easy to deceive. For Conan, whose eyes can be used as searchlights, he can tell the authenticity of this gem at a glance.

“True and priceless”

As a proud detective, he didn't step forward to ask, but pinched his chin and thought, who gave it to him, and he had to rely on his own wisdom to decipher the answer.

until……

"Conan, are you empathizing with Haibara, have you fallen in love with Haibara, and have been staring at Haibara today, why haven't you seen you like this before?"

Ayumi stood angrily in the middle of Conan's gaze looking at Haibara, she had been staring at it for a long time.
