Conan: Live in the Maori Detective Agency at the beginning

The group stepped into the gift shop, which not only displayed a wide variety of gifts, but also sold a variety of gift boxes.

"What a pity! I've already sent mine to Zhen. I don't know if he received it." Suzuki Sonoko sighed as she looked at the dazzling array of gift boxes.

"I guess it's received, but you can't say when express delivery from abroad will arrive." Mao Lilan knew very well that when she helped Kudo Shinichi send something to Shinichi's parents in the United States, it also took seven days to arrive.

"This time I specifically asked for it to be delivered by air express. It should arrive in the next few days." Suzuki Sonoko said, touching her chin.

After all, it takes at most seven days for air express to arrive from Japan to the United States.

Mao Lilan and Suzuki Sonoko turned to the other side of the shelf and picked out small and exquisite accessories.

Xingchen was still hesitant, not knowing which box to choose. Conan walked to the side with his hands in his pockets, pointed at a big red box and said, "How about this one?"

"It's a bit too bright." Xingchen took a glance and remembered the almost identical gift box he had given to Kuroba Kaito before.

"What about this?" Conan pointed to a black and gold box, which looked noble and steady.

"This color is not suitable for birthday gifts." Xingchen said with a slight twitch of his mouth, and turned to look at a box next to him that combined hollow patterns, rabbit and moon elements, with bright red as the main color, supplemented by yellow and white.

Xingchen's eyes suddenly lit up, and he pointed at the box and said, "This is it."

"So beautiful." Conan blinked. What a girly box.

"Little brother, you really know how to choose. This is the newest product in our store." The clerk next to him laughed, covering his mouth.

After Mao Lilan and Suzuki Sonoko heard Xingchen's voice, Mao Lilan was delighted to see the box and exclaimed, "It's really beautiful."

Which girl can resist the temptation of such a cute thing?

"Hehe~!" Xingchen touched his head and smiled. Xiaoai should like it.

Mao Lilan saw that the price seemed a little expensive, but she didn't care. She turned to the clerk and said, "Then please pack it for us."

"Hi~." The clerk nodded and took out an unopened box from the warehouse and started packing it.

"Oh, you are worthy of Xiaochen. If one day I can receive such an exquisite gift from my beloved, I will die without regrets." Suzuki Sonoko clasped her hands together, with a bright light emitting around her, and said with an expectant expression on her face.

"Sonoko, you're exaggerating too much." Mao Lilan smiled helplessly.

"But, isn't Zhen a little too wooden?" Suzuki Sonoko sighed.

Conan felt a little excited. It seemed that he should also give a gift to Mao Li Ran like Xingchen did.

Immediately afterwards, Mao Lilan and Suzuki Sonoko both picked out some small accessories and bought them.

Generally speaking, the prices range from 260 yen to 500 yen.

The only big expense was the box Xingchen bought. This gift box alone cost 4250 yen.

"Total: 7150 yen. Would you like to pay by cash or card?"

"Cash." Xingchen subconsciously handed the clerk a 10,000 yen bill from his pocket, and the clerk was stunned.

She thought the two ladies next to her were paying the bill, but she didn't expect it was the little kid who paid it.

"Xiaochen, where did you get the money?" Mao Lilan didn't know that Xingchen had a lot of private money, so she asked hurriedly. She even wanted to use her own pocket money to buy it for Xingchen.

Xingchen thought to himself, it’s over, I don’t think I told Mao Lilan where his money came from.

His brain started working quickly, preparing to find an excuse to deal with it.

"I see. I was asking whether Kudo Shinichi gave 100 yen or 200 yen. Conan, that brat, looked at me with disdain." Suzuki Sonoko put her hands on her hips and stared at the two of them and said, "So he gave each of you yen, right?"

"Oh, yes. This is the commission that Brother Shinichi gave us. Ahaha, sorry, Sister Xiaolan." Xingchen continued with what Suzuki Sonoko said.

"Shinichi, you are really giving so much money to a kid." Mao Lilan ruffled Xingchen's hair, took the change, handed Xingchen a 1,000 yen bill and said, "I'll keep the rest of the money for you. This 1,000 is your pocket money."

"Yeah." Xingchen took the 1,000 yen and nodded in surprise. Anyway, he also wanted to settle the bills of Mouri Ran and Suzuki Sonoko.

Then, Mao Lilan looked at Conan and said, "Conan~!"

"Ahaha, I have mine at home. I'll give it to you when I get home, Sister Xiaolan." Conan felt something was wrong and took a step back. He guessed something based on what Xingchen had just said and said.

Mao Lilan nodded with satisfaction, and reached out to rub Conan's hair and said, "That's good. If you need the rest, I'll give it to you. It's easy to lose so much money if you keep it with you."

Conan gritted his teeth and thought, damn it, I lost ten thousand yen for no reason.

No, it seems that all the cash of Xingchen was given by him.

He seems to have suffered a serious loss.

The four of them walked out of the shop and strolled along the busy street.

Mao Lilan and Suzuki Sonoko were chatting quietly, while Xingchen followed behind with Conan carrying a bag.

Although Conan didn't buy anything, he held his head in his hands, looked up at the sky, and seemed to be thinking deeply about something.

The next day, Saturday.

The third floor of the office.

Xingchen pushed open the door and walked in with four cups of lemon tea. He came to the table in the middle and placed two cups of lemon tea in front of Suzuki Sonoko and Mao Li Ran.

As for Conan, he was playing video games. He died ten times in a row last night and was mocked sarcastically by Xingchen, who had completed the game once.

He is determined to complete this game!

"You said that Mr. Kyogoku wrote to you." Ran Mouri was chatting with Suzuki Sonoko.

Mao Lilan watched Suzuki Sonoko weakly put potato chips into her mouth one by one, and then took a big sip of lemon tea. "Then why are you still so listless?"

"You'll know when you see it for yourself." Suzuki Sonoko took out a photo from her pocket and handed it to Mao Li Ran.

Mao Lilan took the photo and was a little surprised to see the content on it. Xingchen just handed the lemon tea to Conan and also leaned over to see the photo.

They saw a photo of Kyogoku Makoto and two foreign friends, but the vase in Kyogoku Makoto's hand was particularly familiar to Xingchen and Mao Lilan.

Xingchen complained in his heart, the teacup turned into a vase, he is indeed a straight man. But then again, it is not Kyogoku Makoto's fault for being misunderstood, after all, who made the teacup made by Sonoko so big, it can hold more than 700 ml of water.

"He actually used it as a vase." Mao Lilan said in surprise.

"Yeah." Suzuki Sonoko responded weakly, then leaned on the table and complained: "They just treat me like a vase."
