Kamen Rider: I, Conan, am Faiz

Chapter 161 Parental Love

After more than half an hour's drive, the group finally arrived at the restaurant where they were to get engaged, and then went to the front desk to take out their invitation letters.

"Welcome Mr. Kogoro to the engagement party. Please sign your names in the guest book."

"it is good."

After taking the pen from the front desk staff, Kogoro wrote down his own name, Xiaolan's name and Conan's name in a flamboyant manner. However, when it came to writing the name of his beloved wife, he almost lay down on the table and began to outline it carefully.

【Eri Maori】

"Why are you like this? Why didn't you tell me?"

Seeing Kogoro's rare beautiful handwriting, Attorney Kisaki Eri's face suddenly turned red, and then she couldn't help but gently poke Kogoro's waist to express her blame.

But anyone with a discerning eye could see that this action not only did not mean any blame, but rather was more like the fun between the old couple.

"What does it matter? I signed it before, and today is no exception."

After returning the pen to the staff, Kogoro looked up and said nonchalantly, "The handwriting isn't pretty, just make do with it, this is the best I can do."

After saying that, Kogoro took the lead and walked into the banquet hall.

"Idiot~"

Watching Kogoro's departing back, Kisaki Eri couldn't help but smile shyly, and then she trotted after him.

Witnessing the whole process of the old couple having feelings for each other but not saying it out loud, the onlookers, Xiaolan and Conan, immediately shook their heads in regret.

Xiaolan: "It's almost there, just say it out."

Conan: "It's really worrying..."

After everyone expressed their thoughts, Xiaolan suddenly leaned over to Conan and whispered these words.

"Shinichi, how about you sign for me next time, just like dad did just now~"

"Hey?"

Conan was stunned when he heard this. If he signed like Kogoro did just now, then the subtext would be...

"Puchi~ idiot."

Seeing that Conan seemed to have reacted, two clouds of fire suddenly appeared on Xiaolan's white cheeks, and then she followed her parents' footsteps and trotted into the banquet hall.

"yeah!"

Conan jumped up with joy, and then ran towards the banquet hall like a wild horse. Suddenly, he noticed a gilded wolf head ornament next to the entrance.

For a moment, the expression on Conan's face froze, and then his original joy turned into sadness and solemnity.

The original Orphino's life span is only twenty years at most, and after experiencing so many transformations and battles, I'm afraid the remaining time is less than twenty years, not to mention that I'm still a child now.

"Ah~ I hope that when that day comes, Xiaolan won't be too sad... huh?"

Just as Conan was sighing to himself, he suddenly noticed a transparent umbrella on the rack where umbrellas were placed. Logically, there was nothing strange about this.

But the problem is that it is a sunny day today and there is no need to bring an umbrella, so there is only one umbrella on the huge storage rack.

"How strange."

Conan didn't care too much about it. After all, people have all kinds of hobbies these days, and the law doesn't say you can't bring an umbrella to an engagement party.

After adjusting his mood, Conan pretended to be calm and walked into the banquet hall.

"Sonoko! I didn't expect you to come to the engagement party."

"What a coincidence, Xiaolan, we meet again!"

As soon as the two best friends met, they hugged each other warmly. After reluctantly letting go of Xiaolan, Sonoko explained: "Officer Shiratori's family and our Suzuki Group are long-term partners, so of course I have to attend this engagement ceremony on behalf of my parents."

After explaining the reason for her appearance, Sonoko suddenly looked around: "By the way, since Xiaolan and your whole family are here, did that little brat Conan come along as well?"

Seeing that Sonoko became inexplicably excited when Conan was mentioned, Xiaolan was a little confused, but she still said truthfully: "Yes, Conan came along too."

"Sister Xiaolan, Sister Sonoko, you are here too."

Speaking of Cao Cao and Liu Bei, as soon as Xiaolan finished speaking, Conan came over directly.

"Little devil!"

With a lightning-fast drift, Sonoko bypassed Xiaolan and hugged Conan in her arms, rubbing Conan's little face affectionately.

"I haven't seen you for over a day, little brat. Did you miss me? And did you learn anything from your music class? I will personally check your learning results when the time comes~"

"Sister Yuanzi, you're hugging me too tightly. Can you please loosen up a little? I can hardly breathe..."

Faced with Sonoko's passionate enthusiasm, Conan said he really couldn't resist it.

Looking at Sonoko, who had such a good relationship with Conan, Xiaolan didn't know why she suddenly felt an indescribable strong sense of crisis in her heart, as if her treasure had been taken away by someone...

"It seems that our Conan is really popular. He will definitely be liked by many girls in the future."

At this time, Kisaki Eri slowly walked over. Seeing this, Sonoko quickly let go of Conan and then bowed very politely.

"Hello, Auntie Eri."

"It's been a long time since I last saw you, Sonoko. You've become more and more beautiful. Who knows, the matchmakers who come to propose marriage may even trample on the Suzuki family's doorstep in the future."

"Tsk, my door threshold is made of aviation-grade titanium alloy. Even a tank can't break it. How can those bored guys just step on it?"

Curling her lips in disdain, Sonoko quickly changed the subject and said, "By the way, Aunt Eri, where is Uncle Kogoro? Isn't he with you?"

"He, the mustache detective, went to look for his former police colleagues."

Looking through the many guests present, he saw Kogoro stopping Officer Shiratori, the bride's brother, to ask something, but the latter just shook his head expressionlessly and was immediately taken away by a friendly-looking man, leaving Kogoro alone, stamping his feet in anger.

A trace of heartache flashed across Hibiki Eri's eyes, but she still pretended to be calm and explained, "The one who took Officer Shiratori away was Doctor Fudo Kyousuke, an expert in the psychological department of Beika Hospital. He has been providing psychological counseling to Officer Shiratori and others recently. It seems that the two recent attacks on police officers have caused them a lot of pressure, and even the psychologist has to be on hand at all times."

Xiaolan suddenly realized: "So, Dad also called Officer Megure this morning. Could it be about this case as well?"

"Yes, but it seems that the police have all agreed on a common story, so our famous detective Maori Kogoro can't find any useful clues at all."

Xiaolan and Kisaki Eri looked at each other, and their expressions became more serious...

Seeing this, Sonoko was secretly anxious, thinking about how she could naturally change the subject. Suddenly, an idea came to her not-so-bright brain!

"By the way, Aunt Eri, can you share with us today during our engagement party how Uncle Kogoro confessed his love to you? I have always been curious about the love story of your older generation~"

"Hey?"

As soon as these words came out, a blush suddenly appeared on Hibiki Eri's charming face: "Why would a child know these things? Besides... it happened so long ago, I can't remember it anymore..."

"Oh~ Aunt Yingli, please don't be so stingy. Just tell us~"^_^

Xiaolan also echoed: "Yeah, I'm also curious about mom and dad's love story~" (^^)

As if they had agreed, Xiaolan and Sonoko each grabbed one of Kisaki Eri's arms and began to beg.

Faced with the cute requests from the two older girls, Kisaki Eri gave in after a short while.

"Okay, okay, that's all I said."

"yeah!"

Seeing that their goal was achieved, Xiaolan and Sonoko let go of Kisaki Eri's arms, and then tacitly high-fived each other to celebrate.

Shaking her head helplessly, Kisaki Eri began to recall the scene of that year, and her already slightly red cheeks instantly became even redder.

"At that time, he seemed to have only said one sentence... I love you, more than anyone else on earth, and then... we were together in a daze~"
