Conan thought, this is the case.

Isn’t Xingchen Xiaolan’s younger brother, his brother-in-law?

"Xiaochen, are you willing?" Mao Lilan asked Xingchen for his opinion. After all, this kind of thing still requires the consent of the parties involved.

Of course, Ran Mouri also asked for Eri Kisaki's opinion, and Eri Kisaki said that before going through the formalities.

Bring Xingchen to meet her. If possible, she would certainly be willing to adopt Xingchen.

After all, she had heard about Xingchen from Mao Lilan before.

I also feel that this child is quite pitiful.

"This." Xingchen suddenly fell into deep thought. Adopt?

After all, he is no different from an illegal resident now.

Although Japan does not have such thing as household registration.

They all use various certificates to prove their identities.

The most typical ones are driver's license, Japanese passport and medical insurance card.

There is no household registration book or anything like that, and even the ID card is something called the Personal Number Card, which was only issued in 2016.

"But can I make a small request?" Xingchen said as he thought of a question.

"What's the request?" asked Mao Lilan curiously.

"Just can I not change my last name?" Xingchen blinked and Lu said, he didn't know whether he would agree or not.

"That's fine." Mao Lilan nodded. After all, these were just minor problems.

An adopted child does not need to change his or her surname.

It is not mandatory, and generally adopters will change their children's last name.

But if the children don't want to change, they won't force them.

"In that case, I'm willing." Xingchen nodded. After all, he was the only one in this world.

Is there a formal identity so that I can marry Haibara Ai home in the future?

"That's great." Mao Lilan said, touching Xingchen's head.

"Conan, do you want to go with me tomorrow?"

"Oh~, no, I guess not." Conan waved his hand and suddenly remembered what happened a few months ago.

When Xingchen was preparing the materials, an incident happened at the TV station.

On the next day, Ran Mouri went to see Eri Kisaki and told Conan that she was going on a date with Shinichi.

This made Conan suddenly jealous.

Follow Mao Lilan into the coffee shop.

There were some small incidents in the middle, and only after many twists and turns did he realize that the person Mouri Ran was meeting was Eri Kisaki.

She was also ganked by Eri Kisaki, who said, "Ran, you have to be careful of that detective who is your childhood sweetheart, okay?"

"If you have nothing to do, just avoid meeting that guy."

That's it.

Conan also doesn't want to see Eri Kisaki because of what happened in her childhood.

He is still a little afraid of seeing Eri Kisaki.

The next day, Xingchen was taken alone by Mao Lilan to see Kisaki Eri.

Inside the coffee shop, Xingchen looked at a somewhat aloof woman in front of him, who was wearing a rather restrained lavender lawyer's uniform.

"Mom, I brought Xiaochen here."

"By the way, Xiaochen, you talk to your mother first. I'm going to the bathroom." Mao Lilan put Xingchen down and went to the bathroom of the coffee shop.

Xingchen blinked, feeling a little nervous, and nodded, "Hello, Auntie."

"Oh, what a cute child." When Fei Yingli saw Xingchen, she touched Xingchen's head the first time.

After Kisaragi and Xingchen chatted for a few words, Xingchen sat opposite her, drinking juice with the cup in both hands.

"How is it, Mom?" Mao Lilan came back, sat next to Xingchen, put her bag on her lap and asked.

"This child reminds me of you when you were a child, Xiaolan."

"It's just that he's more well-behaved." Fei Yingli keenly felt that Xingchen's well-behavedness was not in line with his current age.

Take Conan, for example, a child of the same age.

When I saw her before, she was quite angry.

You can tell at first glance that she is a very lively person.

He has strong reasoning ability and I heard he is a relative of Dr. Agasa.

It seems that he is very close to the Kudo family.

It is understandable to have this kind of reasoning ability.

After all, Shinichi wasn't the same when he was a child.

I just don't know why Conan gets scared when he sees her.

Back to Xingchen, it fits the story that Mao Lilan told her.

"Mother."

"So, you agreed to adopt Xingchen." Mao Lilan saw that Kisaki Eri didn't seem to object.

Hibiki Eri calmly took a sip of coffee and said, "Of course, I have a cute and obedient child like Xiaochen as my son."

"I don't know whether the old man will agree or not."

"My father has already agreed to this." Of course, Maori Ran had already persuaded Maori Kogoro.

Otherwise where did that information come from.

"That's fine, welcome Xiaochen. By the way, I will cook a big meal myself tonight as a welcome party for Xiaochen." Hibiki Eri said with a smile.

"How can this be possible? Let's go out to eat."

"Please invite Dad and Conan to Xiaochen's welcome party. It's too tiring for you, Mom, to cook alone." Mao Lilan's face changed slightly and she said immediately.

Only Xingchen, with a confused look on his face, watched Mao Lilan trying to get the opportunity to go out and eat directly.

I don’t quite understand it, but there must be some deep reasons behind it.

But it seemed understandable, and Xingchen seemed to have guessed the reason.

"It feels like there's something behind what you said, Xiaolan?" asked Kisaki Eri with some confusion.

"No, ahaha." said Mao Lilan.

"Well, um, let me think about it, it seems that my assistant left an invitation letter to a high-end Western restaurant." Fei Yingli thought for a moment and said.

But after all, she is my daughter, so I am still very considerate and worried that I will be tired.

"Okay, let's go to a high-end Western restaurant. I'll ask what time it is." Kisaki Eri picked up her cell phone and went out to make a call.

After a while, Kisaki Eri came back.

It has been decided to hold a welcome party for Xingchen at the end of this month.

Mao Lilan and Kisaki Eri discussed the specific matters again, after all, just eating is not enough.

KTV arranges everything and makes every detail of the day clear.

"By the way, Xiaolan, I have something else to do later. You and Xiaochen should go together to submit the materials." Kisaragi received a call, picked up her bag and gave instructions.

"I'm leaving. You have to be careful." Kisaki Eri said before leaving.

The two men sent Kisaki Eri to the door and said.

"Mom (Auntie), bye!" they both said at the same time.

"Xiaochen, let's go." Mao Lilan said with her head down.

"Yeah." Xingchen nodded, feeling as if he had just had a dream day.

After a while, they went to a place that specializes in adoption services to provide information.

Within seven working days, they will notify Mao Lilan and Xingchen to come and collect the adoption certificate and Xingchen's passport.

"Let's go home." Mao Lilan held Xingchen's hand and said with her head down.

"Yeah!" Xingchen nodded.

night.

Xingchen lay on the bed, looking at the ceiling.

It seemed like he had done nothing today.

But I heard that we are going to Yokohama tomorrow, on the Sally Beth.

But, alas.

After all, they invited Kogoro Mori and his family.

So be it.

Xingchen closed his eyes, stopped thinking, and went to sleep.
