After Fei Yingli's friends arrived, Chu Ming began to notify the hotel to start serving the food.

The dishes were ordered for him by Vermouth. It was not obvious when they were first served, but as time went on, the dishes became more and more luxurious. The fruit after the meal was even made by the chef who carved a Densuke black-skinned watermelon into the shape of a blessing and placed the watermelon flesh inside. Chu Ming knew that Vermouth, this salary thief, must have embezzled a lot of the organization's funds.

"I heard that the first Densuke black-skinned watermelon in Hokkaido this year was just auctioned yesterday. The watermelons that pass through the auction house will have marked marks on them. Could this be the watermelon?" Usui Ritsuko clasped her hands together and looked at Chu Ming in surprise, with a hint of admiration in her eyes.

"What is Densuke black watermelon?" Ayumi asked curiously.

Mitsuhiko raised his finger, his face full of pride: "I know, 'Densuke' is the name of a black-skinned watermelon variety produced in Hokkaido. It is famous for its large size, thick skin, and special sweetness. Only more than 100 are produced in Hokkaido each year. It is said that the auction price of the first watermelon can reach or each year."

Yuan Tai took a look at the watermelon in his hand, his face full of shock: "Then this piece of watermelon can buy a whole truck of eel rice!!"

Chu Ming ignored Usui Ritsuko and said to the children with a smile: "It's a watermelon. As long as you think it tastes good, it doesn't matter how much it costs. I'll take you to China if I have the chance. It's cheap and plentiful, and you can even eat as much as you want."

"Wow——" Several children looked longing, "Is China so great?"

Usui Ritsuko felt ignored and was stunned for a moment. After all, she was a great beauty with outstanding looks. With the aura of a lawyer, she could quickly make men surrender with a little admiration. They might not obey her in everything, but at least they would be polite to her.

Her dream is to surpass Fei Yingli and become the number one in the legal world. Looking at today's banquet, she knew that Chu Ming's financial resources were definitely not low. He might be the son of a chaebol and should be able to give her a lot of help... But the beauty trap suddenly suffered a Waterloo and Chu Ming ignored him completely.

She was a little unwilling, and continued to smile and walked forward, picked up the glass and poured a glass of wine for Chu Ming: "Mr. Chu Ming, thank you for your hospitality today. We had such a great meal. I toast you~"

? ? ? ?

There are villains who want to harm me!!!

Chu Ming frowned: "Ms. Usui, I'm sorry, but I'm not yet an adult and can't drink."

"Eh?" Usui Ritsuko was stunned. "Mr. Chu Ming is not yet an adult??? But aren't you already in college?"

Chu Ming maintained a polite smile, but his words were cold: "Because I am gifted and skipped a grade, Miss Usui, as a lawyer, you should know that the law clearly stipulates that minors cannot drink, right?"

Of course, Usui Ritsuko knew that minors were not allowed to drink, but couldn't this man be more gentle and say it in a tactful way? How embarrassed she was!

Usui Ritsuko returned to her seat angrily. If that was the case, there was only one way to surpass Hime Eri.

Her eyes slowly swept over Maori Kogoro, she sat back with a charming smile, and started talking to Maori Kogoro.

Maori Kogoro was particularly happy after drinking and having a beautiful woman to chat with him. He even held Usui Ritsuko's hand and put it on his chest with a lewd look: "Ms. Usui, your hands are so smooth and small..."

Xiaolan was so angry that she clenched her fists and stared at Mouri Kogoro. If she hadn't remembered that this was Chu Ming's birthday party, she would even want to overturn the whole table on Mouri Kogoro.

Dr. Agasa, who was standing by, saw that something was wrong and quickly pointed at the cake at the door: "Hey, the cake is here, kids, come and sing a birthday song for your brother Chu Ming?"

After Chu Ming made his wish and cut the cake, and the children began to share the cake enthusiastically, Fei Yingli made an excuse to leave, and Xiaolan hurriedly chased after her.

Chu Ming thought about it, stayed with her for a while, then went back to his room with a pile of gifts to open them.

Chu Ming sat cross-legged on the bed and unpacked the gift boxes one by one.

Conan gave a complete set of Sherlock Holmes's detective stories, Xiaolan gave a car ornament, and Sonoko couldn't come because her father had to take her to a business banquet today, so she asked Xiaolan to bring her a watch.

Some children gave small items they made by hand, Huiyuan gave a wallet, and Dr. Agasa gave a small invention he developed himself...

Chu Ming deeply felt the joy of opening the blind box.

Just as he started to organize the gifts, he suddenly heard a knock on the door. It was Hime Eri, Xiaolan and Conan looking for Mouri Kogoro.

"When I left, Uncle Maori was chatting with Miss Usui. Then he got drunk and said he was going back to his room. What happened? Did the uncle disappear?"

Chu Ming picked up the coat on the chair and put it on: "I'll go with you to look for it. Ask Miss Usui. Their room is on the same floor. They should have returned together."

Several people went to Usui Ritsuko's room together, but Usui Ritsuko said that she went straight back to her room after she separated from Mori Kogoro, and she didn't know where he was.

Chu Ming looked at the focus belonging to Kogoro Mouri appearing in her room, and then looked at Ritsuko Usui who was lying with open eyes, blocking the door with no intention of letting them in, and did not try to intervene.

Anyway, this case will better promote the relationship between Kogoro Mori and Eri Kisaki. Considering the gifts they gave today, Chu Ming did not make any noise to interfere and just watched the development of the plot silently.

Unable to find anyone, Kisaki Eri finally suspected that Mouri Kogoro was in Usui Ritsuko's room. After calling to confirm, she asked the waiter to get a spare key and entered the room. She found that Usui Ritsuko had been killed beside the bed, and Mouri Kogoro was lying on the bed, sleeping soundly.

After everyone determined that Kogoro Mori was the murderer, Eri Kisaki calmly found out the truth and rescued Kogoro Mori, which led to Mori confessing his true feelings to her and persuading Eri Kisaki to go home.

Although pretending not to hear anything, Hime Eri actually recorded all the love words that Mouri Kogoro said, and took away Xiaolan's floppy disk. She probably went back and played them over and over again.

Chu Ming, who received the magnetic field on his birthday, returned to the base happily and found two packed gift boxes in the base.

And gifts?

Probably the only ones in the organization who know his identity are Rum and the boss, right?

Wow, is the boss so good? He gave me the Dusk Annex and gave me an extra gift.
