Chapter 305

The Sindora Company? The game "Cocoon" developed with the latest virtual reality technology?

Shengzai had certainly watched the *Detective Conan* series, but because of its thousand-plus episodes, he had watched it from elementary school through college, yet Conan was still in the first grade, so Shengzai eventually gave up halfway through.

Because there were too many episodes and too much time had passed, honestly, aside from some of the more interesting cases in the original plot, Shengzai couldn't remember most of the other cases at all.

When he heard the terms "Sindora Company" and "virtual reality game—Cocoon," which were quite familiar, Shengzai still recalled that theatrical film from the *Detective Conan* world that had both high acclaim and popularity—*The Phantom of Baker Street*!

"Then I'll see you all tomorrow. If our family really receives an invitation to the Sindora Company's presentation, I'll ask my family to bring you all along."

After making the promise, Shengzai finally managed to shake off the few pestering brats in front of him and sat inside the car his family had sent to pick him up.

Unlike Sonoko, who had absolutely no airs of a wealthy heiress, Shengzai was usually picked up and dropped off by a private car when going to and from school.

Although he himself had raised objections to his family about such a flashy and extravagant practice, it was a pity that his protests were completely useless.

If it were before he had shared his powers, that would be one thing; after all, Shengzai felt that although he had the mind of an adult, his seven-year-old physique meant that even a random thug could easily kill him in a one-on-one fight.

But ever since he shared the power of the Shengzais from other worlds, Shengzai now felt that the private car and bodyguards his family arranged for him were truly somewhat redundant.

With his current strength, it was no exaggeration to say that he was absolutely the "strongest elementary school student in history." Forget about ordinary thugs; even the most dangerous "Black Organization" in this world would have to switch to selling alcohol if they encountered him.

"Is Shengzai back? Yesterday, the principal of your school specifically called again to praise you.

I heard that in this school festival, you took first place in every single sports event. Mommy is so proud of you.

Whether it's your sister Ayako or your sister Sonoko, just like your father, they are all mediocre in both academics and sports. Only you have inherited Mommy's excellent genes."

Just as Shengzai returned to the Suzuki residence, a noblewoman with an exceptionally elegant temperament, wearing a professional suit, with short chestnut hair and a beauty mark under the corner of her eye, picked him up and kissed his cheek with a smile.

And this elegant noblewoman was none other than the mistress of the Suzuki family, Shengzai's current "cheap" mother, Tomoko Suzuki.

"Mother, please have some self-respect. I have said it many times: I am already grown up, and you cannot keep treating me like a child."

Tomoko Suzuki was a woman with a very strong and confident personality; not only was she the true "head of the household," but she was also quite stern and serious on various occasions.

However, when facing her only son, her cold and aloof temperament would often vanish without a trace.

"Fine, fine, fine, you are grown up. But let's not even talk about the fact that you are only a seven-year-old child right now; even when you grow up further, you will still be Mommy's child.

Your sister Sonoko is clearly already a high school student, yet she is still so childish. On the other hand, you, a child who is clearly at the age to act spoiled toward your parents, are so mature and composed. I suppose this point was also inherited from my excellent genes."

After Tomoko Suzuki nibbled on Shengzai's cheek a few more times, she finally put him down, while Shiro Suzuki, who heard what Tomoko Suzuki said from the side, directly revealed a look of speechlessness.

So, all the excellent genes of their children were inherited from his wife, and all the bad aspects were inherited from him?

As for looks, Shiro Suzuki admitted that Shengzai indeed resembled his wife more, but as for IQ, he felt that his son should resemble him a bit more.

After all, although his wife was shrewd and capable, a proper career woman, in terms of IQ or management ability, she was still far inferior to him.

Of course, Shiro Suzuki only dared to think such thoughts in his heart now, because due to being henpecked, if he dared to contradict his wife while she was in a good mood, he would likely be sleeping on the floor tonight.

"Given the good results you achieved in the school festival, you can tell Mommy whatever reward you want. As long as Mommy can do it, I can promise you.

After all, as long as you achieve results, you can get corresponding rewards; this is also our Suzuki family motto."

Although Shengzai indicated that he had never heard of such a family motto, since he could make any request...

"Then I would like to go to and from school by myself from now on, without the family arranging a private car or bodyguards or anything."

Before, he lacked strength and Shengzai was afraid of death, but now that he was the "strongest elementary school student in history," he sometimes wanted to act alone to stir up some trouble.

Although with his current strength, shaking off the family's bodyguards was not a difficult task, once he suddenly "disappeared," the family would surely be in chaos because of it.

Hearing the request Shengzai made, Tomoko Suzuki, who had been full of smiles, instantly let her face fall.

"If it were anything else, Mommy could promise you, but regarding this matter alone, Mommy cannot compromise.

Shengzai, you must understand one thing: you are the heir to our Suzuki family, and with our Suzuki family's financial power, there might be many criminals outside eyeing you..."

"But sister Sonoko is also a wealthy heiress, right? Why can she go to school alone like an ordinary person?"

Looking at Tomoko Suzuki's fallen expression, Shengzai made his final effort.

"Sonoko is already a high school student, while you are just a seven-year-old child. Besides, does your sister Sonoko usually look like she has the airs of a wealthy heiress?"

"Then I can also be like an ordinary child..."

"Alright, there is no need to say more about this matter. This is the invitation to the Sindora Company's presentation, and it also includes three experience badges for their "Cocoon" release.

I heard that the "Cocoon" at this presentation is a type of latest virtual reality game. This time, I will take time to bring you and Sonoko to attend it together; consider it your reward this time."

Because he was the only male descendant in the family and the youngest, Tomoko Suzuki, who had always been extremely doting on Shengzai, generally would not refuse Shengzai's requests.

But it was precisely because she was extremely doting on Shengzai that Tomoko Suzuki did not agree to Shengzai's request to go to and from school alone.

Shengzai had been obedient and sensible since he was young, and he had shown amazing talent in both academics and sports. Tomoko Suzuki had always regarded him as her pride and was simply unwilling to let him face even the slightest risk.
