After a short time.

Bright lobby.

Xiaolan and her family sat on mahogany chairs next to the taller dining table.

The dining table was covered with a pale pink tablecloth and piled with empty cutlery, glasses and wine glasses.

The middle-aged man, Kohei Sawaki, stands on the right side of Kogoro Mori. He is wearing an open black suit, white lining, a black bow tie, a gold grape-shaped badge on his left chest, short hair parted in the middle, and a thin figure.

Sawaki's neck was wrapped with a long silver necklace with dozens of rings connected in series and a silver wine tasting plate hanging at the end. He held the wine bottle carried by professional instruments in a standard posture, slightly bent over, looking at Kogoro Mori, and explained wine meticulously.

Kisaki Eri sat in front of Kogoro's left, with her hands on her legs, gazing at Sawaki Kohei with elegance.

Xiaolan sat across the dining table to the left of Maori Kogoro, with her hands folded between her legs. She leaned slightly to the left and turned to look at Dongfang Haoyue and Kudo Shinichi on the left. She introduced them in a gentle and soft voice:

"That person's name is Sawaki Kouhei. My father and mother knew him when they were young."

"Oh."

Dongfang Haoyue and Kudo Shinichi put their hands on their apart legs and nodded obediently and cutely.

Sawaki Kouhei looked down at the wine, held the wine opener in his right hand, and skillfully poked the cork into the mouth of the wine bottle.

Dongfang Haoyue sat in front of Zemu on the right, looked him up and down, and was surprised to find his grape badge. He looked up at him and asked curiously:

"Uncle Sawaki, why is your badge in the shape of a grape?"

Kudo Shinichi sat on the right side of Dongfang Haoyue. He subconsciously glanced at the grape badge, then looked at Haoyue, and thought in confusion in his heart:

"The wealthy Haoyue can't recognize the badge of a sommelier... That's right, before Haoyue traveled through time, he lived in a large manor with his own sommelier at home. Those people don't necessarily wear badges."

Seeing that Sawaki Gongping was busy handling the wine, Xiaolan turned to look at Dongfang Haoyue and answered on behalf of Sawaki with understanding:

“That’s the sign of a sommelier~”

"Ow."

Dongfang Haoyue looked at Xiaolan with sudden enlightenment and nodded innocently.

Xiaolan smiled friendly and added:

“A sommelier is someone like Mr. Sawaki who is an expert in wine~”

at the same time.

Sawaki Kohei took out the cork of wine and held it under his nose, sniffing it gently, then elegantly picked up the cork and placed it in the silver vessel on the dining table in front of him on the left.

Kudo Shinichi observed Sawaki thoughtfully.

Xiaolan looked up at Sawaki Kouhei's wine tasting plate and explained carefully:

"As for the wine tasting dish in front of his stomach, it is a device specifically used for tasting wine."

"Ow."

Dongfang Haoyue looked at the wine tasting disc, nodded innocently, and said happily in her heart:

"Xiao Lan was kind enough to share her knowledge with me, so I shouldn't tell you that I already knew these things~!"

at the same time.

Maori Kogoro looked at Xiaolan with some surprise, and praised her with emotion:

"Xiaolan, you know a lot about wine tasting."

"I read the books written by Mr. Nishina~"

Xiaolan looked at Maori Kogoro happily, and turned her head to look at the light brown wall in the distance. She clenched her left hand, with her knuckles and thumb resting on her chin, and narrated seriously:

“The book that says red wine should be drunk at room temperature and…”

Xiaolan raised her head slightly, looking at the warm-colored ceiling in a nostalgic manner, with her left index finger resting on her shoulder, and described with a smile:

“White and rosé wines taste better when chilled~”

Sawaki Kouhei held the wine and poured it into the glass on the table in front of Maori Kogoro, and said calmly:

"In fact, the temperature of wine depends on the preference of the drinker. The book is not completely correct."

Kogoro Mori watched Sawaki Kohei put the wine bottle back, then he pretended to be elegant and picked up the wine glass, holding it not far from his chest, shook it slowly twice, held it under his nose, sniffed it gently, put it to his lips, took a sip, and drank it slowly.

Kogoro looked up at Sawaki, smiled heartily and praised:

“It tastes pretty good!”

“Light red wine tastes great when chilled~”

Sawaki Kouhei turned around and looked at the wine glass on the table in front of him on the right. He skillfully held the wine and poured it into the glass, then added happily:

"The important thing is that refrigeration will dilute the astringency of the wine~"

"That's right."

Xiaolan held her left hand loosely on her shoulder, and her innocent face showed an expression of having learned new knowledge.

Maori Kogoro put down his wine glass, put his hands on the table, looked at Xiaolan like an old father, and said with heartfelt emotion:

"I didn't expect Xiaolan to be old enough to be interested in these things."

Xiaolan hasn't reacted yet.

Kisaki Eri looked at Xiaolan tenderly, then looked at Maori Kogoro, and said with mixed feelings:

"Xiaolan's growth means that we are not young anymore."

"Yes."

Kogoro Maori smiled with a lot of thoughts in his mind.

Hibiki Eri couldn't help laughing and said from the bottom of her heart:

"Hahaha~"

"Hahaha~"

Kogoro Mori enjoyed the harmonious atmosphere brought by Eri Kisaki, and his mature face was filled with a happy smile.

Xiaolan looked at Kogoro and Eri happily, then turned to the left to look at Haoyue and Shinichi. She covered her red lips with her left hand, smiled and whispered for approval:

"The mood between Dad and Mom has improved~"

"Hmm~!"

Dongfang Haoyue and Kudo Shinichi looked at the heartwarming conversation between Maori Kogoro and Kissing Eri, a gentle curve of their lips appeared on the corners, and they looked at Xiaolan as if bathed in the spring breeze.

after a while.

Xiaolan and her family remained seated. On the table in front of them were placed a ceramic plate with a white background and brown edges, holding a large piece of beef and lemon juice. Holding the silver knife in the right hand and the silver fork in the left hand, they enjoyed the beef happily.

Kohei Sawaki was serving customers at another table not far from Kogoro Mori.

Kudo Shinichi turned his head and looked at Dongfang Haoyue, who had a white napkin tied around his collar and a little meat crumbs on his lips. He used the knife and fork to bully the beef, cut out a small piece with a little force and handed it to Haoyue's soft red lips.

Haoyue held the knife and fork in each hand on the ceramic plate, with a napkin tied around his collar, and looked expectantly at Shinichi handing over the beef. He realized belatedly that when he fed his portion of beef to Shinichi, the meat crumbs stuck to his mouth. He was about to untie the napkin to wipe his lips.

Xiaolan had just finished eating the beef and turned to look at Kudo Shinichi, trying to appreciate his cute appearance while eating. However, she witnessed him feeding Dongfang Haoyue with her own eyes. She was under great mental stimulation and suddenly realized that Haoyue was about to untie his napkin.

Xiaolan was jealous, but her brain was working fast. She guessed that Haoyue wanted to wipe Shinichi's lips. She locked her eyes on the back of Shinichi's head, attracted his attention, and called out softly:

"Conan!"

"Eh?"

Kudo Shinichi subconsciously made a sound of surprise, put the beef and knife and fork back on the ceramic plate, and looked at Xiaolan in confusion.

Dongfang Haoyue was slightly stunned, interrupted his actions, and looked at Xiaolan with a confused look on his face.

Kogoro Mouri put down his knife and fork on the ceramic plate, placed his hands flat on the dining table, and looked at Kudo Shinichi calmly.

Kisaki Eri put down her knife and fork on the ceramic plate, put her hands on the table, and looked at Shinichi and Xiaolan in confusion.

Xiaolan breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Kudo Shinichi stop feeding Dongfang Haoyue. She looked at Shinichi carefully and found the minced meat as expected. She took out a white handkerchief from the right pocket of her shirt and handed it to his lips, smiling and explaining:

"Your mouth is stained with food~"
