Chapter 240

"Yeah, yeah, it feels like participating in a real time travel!"

Conan had an old-fashioned look.

He expressed that he wasn't interested in this game:

"It's just a video game, right!"

Ayumi squinted her eyes with a mischievous smile:

"Conan, you're not very good at computer games, right?"

Genta also squinted his eyes and looked at Conan with contempt:

"You haven't even cleared Space Dragon Quest yet. Hehe!"

Saying that, the corners of his mouth turned up slightly,

revealing two rows of white teeth.

"Didn't expect your fingers to be so clumsy!"

Mitsuhiko on the side also followed everyone in mocking Conan.

"Tsk! None of your business!"

Conan was inexplicably teased by the kids,

so he was a bit unhappy.

The tightly furrowed brows and the blush on his cheeks indicated that he was very embarrassed now.

The presentation venue was crowded with dense crowds of people,

including adults and children.

Compared to saying it was a presentation site,

it was more like a huge family gathering.

"There are so many people, and so much wine!"

Mouri Kogoro had just walked into the venue when he was attracted by the wine held by a waiter.

He had long arms and legs,

and with a stretch of his arms, he took two glasses from the waiter's tray,

then couldn't wait to drink the fine wine in the glasses.

Mouri Ran's gaze was initially entirely attracted by Hoshino Ki,

but after seeing Mouri Kogoro being so indulgent,

she couldn't help but remind him:

"Dad! High-level police officials seem to have come today. You must not drink too much wine!"

Mouri Kogoro squinted his eyes contentedly after a glass of wine.

He looked at his daughter comfortably:

"I know! Drinking high-quality wine won't make you drunk!"

Mouri Ran frowned instantly upon hearing this.

She was clearly a bit angry!

Hoshino Ki also turned his head to look at them after hearing Mouri Kogoro's words.

His gaze met Mouri Ran's for a moment.

Mouri Ran, who had wanted to get angry, changed her expression the moment she met Hoshino Ki's gaze.

She looked shy and stared tightly at Hoshino Ki's face.

Heavens!

Ki is too handsome today!

What kind of handsome guy outfit is this?

The combination of gold-rimmed glasses and a suit,

simply the representative of a gentle and handsome guy!

Mouri Ran on this side was already deeply immersed in Hoshino Ki's handsomeness.

Her slightly red face had already exposed her girlish thoughts.

Mouri Kogoro saw that his daughter's attention had been attracted by Hoshino Ki,

and he also had a jealous look.

He held a glass of wine, and after glancing at Hoshino Ki,

he expressed his opinion insincerely:

"Really! The brat is really handsome! He has my style from back then!"

Conan stood on the side and gave a speechless half-moon eye.

Hehehe...

"Wow! This should be all-you-can-eat, right?"

Genta was confused by the food on the dining table.

To him, the food in front of him was the most tempting thing.

"Probably!"

Mitsuhiko said helplessly.

Although Genta was still young and needed to grow, that was true,

but sometimes he was quite worried about his physical health.

"So lucky! So lucky!"

Genta instantly launched an attack on the meat skewers on the dining table.

He held a meat skewer in one hand,

and stuffed it into his mouth all at once.

"The lucky ones are those kids!"

Ayumi looked at a group of children in the center of the venue with envy.

They were the lucky ones selected to participate in the game today.

"They are receiving the badges for participating in the game!"

"I guess they must be the kids selected to participate in the Cocoon game today..."

Mitsuhiko also had an envious look...

Mouri Kogoro held his wine glass,

looking disdainful.

He had some discernment.

The moment he looked at the appearance of those children, he read their identities:

"．～ The grandson of the Deputy Superintendent of the Metropolitan Police Department, the grandson of a financial tycoon, the son of a ruling party politician."

"The second and third generations who carry the future of Japan are all here!"

Among the group of children,

a few treacherous and cunning-looking children were discussing arrogantly:

"I can feel the jealous gazes of others."

"Hehehe!"

Haibara Ai stood beside Hoshino Ki,

looking at these ugly children with a side-eye,

and finally just shook her head helplessly.

She opened her mouth silently:

"It's just like a condensed version of the ugly Japanese hereditary system."

"Ah?!"

Everyone looked at her in surprise after hearing Haibara Ai's statement.

"Along with this hereditary system, the wrong history of humanity will also repeat itself!"

"Ai! I don't understand what you're saying!"

Ayumi frowned, looking like her CPU had burned out.

Ayumi furrowed her brows, looking as if her CPU had completely burned out.

Clearly, it was quite difficult for her to understand this at her current age.

Hoshino Ki looked down at Haibara Ai's small head.

Had Haibara Ai always been getting along with her friends like this?

She really was shocking!

Where did this tone and manner sound like something a child should say!?

He patted Haibara Ai's small head with one hand,

stroking it gently,

signaling her to pay attention to her words and actions.

Haibara Ai instantly understood Hoshino Ki's meaning,

so she rolled her eyes, then closed them with an impatient look and said:

"The politician's son will become a politician!"

"The bank president's son will become a bank president!"

"If this continues, no matter how much time passes, Japan will still not change!"

After saying this,

she suddenly changed her usual serious and cold state.

She stood on tiptoe,

and raised her arms, showing her girlish aura:

"Yesterday's news talked about many topics like this. I didn't understand any of it! Hehehe!"

That originally cold and indifferent face suddenly became exquisite and cute.

Hoshino Ki stepped back slightly to let Haibara Ai play to her heart's content.

This mature face-changing technique!

Even the King of Heaven would have to praise it as "awesome"!

Just after Haibara Ai finished saying these words,

everyone also looked relieved.

Mouri Kogoro stared at Haibara Ai, who was like a little adult, with sweat on his face.

He almost thought this child had been possessed by something unclean!

Haibara Ai looked up at Hoshino Ki,

her ice-blue eyes returning to their usual mature tranquility.

That serene expression on her face looked a bit terrifying.

"How about it? Is this okay?"

She smiled slightly like this,

both in her expression and words,

revealing her black-hearted aura to Hoshino Ki.

"..."

Hoshino Ki was slightly stunned.

"So scary!"

Conan, standing on the side, voiced Hoshino Ki's inner thoughts.

Although the voice was very small,

it was still heard by Haibara Ai!

Haibara Ai instantly frowned and stared straight at Conan, this little guy.

Her eyes were almost rolled to the sky.

"Eh!"

Conan was scared by Haibara Ai's terrifying gaze and jumped.

He couldn't help but move his body backward.

He racked his brains but couldn't understand why this family was so scary!

Mouri Kogoro and Mouri Ran looked at the children at their feet strangely.

"Hoshino-kun! Ran!"

Just then!

A familiar female voice came from not far away.

Everyone was attracted by the sound and turned to look at the source.

Mouri Ran saw the other person first.

She immediately waved at the other person enthusiastically:

"Ah! Sonoko!"

The person who came was Suzuki Sonoko.

She was dressed up for the occasion today.

Although the headband on her head remained unchanged,

it was still that familiar yellow,

but she was wearing a gorgeous red dress.

From the fabric, it looked expensive.

Plus the gold jewelry and green jade she wore around her neck,

this set was probably enough for a poor family's child to eat for a lifetime.

Truly worthy of being the daughter of the Suzuki conglomerate!

Truly graceful and luxurious!

Suzuki Sonoko first bent down to greet a group of children:

"Hi boys and girls!"

Before she could turn her gaze to the handsome Hoshino Ki on the side...
