Conan: Above force, everything is truth!

Ryuno understood Xiaolan's thoughts very well.

This is not curiosity, it's just the gossip and star chasing that girls like most.

The difference is that others chase the gossip of stars, while Xiaolan chases the gossip of parents.

Thinking of this, Ryuno smiled and said: "By the way, Xiaolan, Aunt Yukiko seems to have told me that Uncle Maori and Auntie seemed to be too close in high school~"

"Really! Did Aunt Yukiko say anything else?!" Hearing Ryuno's words, Xiaolan's eyes instantly showed golden stars.

...

The next night

Mouri Kogoro drove Ryuno and others to attend the engagement party.

After arriving at the destination and parking the car in the parking lot, everyone prepared to get off.

It's called an engagement party, but it's actually a dinner party the day before the wedding, which is the so-called "pre-wedding celebration."

——"Click"

Just then, Maori Kogoro pressed the button and locked the car door.

Seeing this, Ryuno and others looked puzzled.

Without waiting for Tatsuno and Conan to speak, Xiaolan asked first: "Dad, why did you lock the car door?"

Mouri Kogoro was silent for a second, turned his head and looked at Tatsuno and Xiaolan in the back seat seriously.

The atmosphere in the car seemed to become solemn because of this.

Just when Tatsuno and the other two thought he would say something incredible, Maori Kogoro spoke.

"Listen! Today is just a pre-wedding celebration, no need to give gifts! But I will definitely pay for gifts tomorrow!!"

"Conan, let's not talk about it. You and Tatsuno are both minors, and you don't need to pay for gifts..."

Tatsuno and the other two frowned, as if using expressions to say: "Well... So what?"

After a pause, Maori Kogoro continued: "You are still young, you may not understand, the current gift money standard is surprisingly high!!!"

"Listen! This meal is my treat! You must eat as much as you can today!!"

After saying that, he laughed evilly.

Tatsuno and Xiaolan looked at each other with subtle expressions.

No wonder Uncle Maori invited them to this so-called pre-wedding celebration, so this is what happened...

Conan, who was sitting in the passenger seat, also twitched his lips speechlessly, not knowing where to start complaining.

Seeing that everyone understood what he meant, Maori Kogoro unlocked the car door and got out of the car.

Tatsuno looked at his back and frowned.

Speaking of which, Aunt Yukiko seemed to have given him a huge amount of "child support" before, so Uncle Maori shouldn't be so "small-minded"?

Could it be...

Thinking of Uncle Maori's "hobbies", Tatsuno narrowed his eyes.

Thinking of this, Tatsuno glanced at Xiaolan beside him and shook his head.

It's better not to tell Xiaolan about this guess for now. It's okay if I guess wrong. What if I guess right...

With Xiaolan's current state, if she really punches Uncle Maori with all her strength when she is extremely angry, wouldn't that be really killing her own brother for the sake of justice?

Looking at Xiaolan who is in a good mood beside him, Tatsuno decides to put this matter aside for the time being.

...

In the restaurant

"Raita, Hatsune! Congratulations on your marriage!!!"

——"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

After saying that, everyone set off the fireworks in their hands.

The bride and groom smiled sweetly under the applause and blessings of the people around them.

"I'm really embarrassed to be congratulated by everyone~"

Soon after, the two walked to Maori Kogoro's table.

Seeing the two coming, Maori Kogoro immediately congratulated: "Hey, two newlyweds! Talented man and beautiful woman, really jealous!"

"It's been a long time since I saw Maori! You brought your family~" The groom waved his hand and smiled.

"Is this the famous detective Maori Kogoro?" The bride covered her mouth and said in surprise.

"Yes, he is my bad friend Maori Kogoro in high school~"

The bride looked at Maori Kogoro and greeted him with a smile: "Nice to meet you, I am Hatsune."

After greeting, the bride looked at the three people beside her: "Who are these three?"

"Hello, I am his daughter Maori Ran~" Xiaolan said immediately.

"Hello, I am Xiaolan's high school classmate, Takeda Tatsuno." Tatsuno also said immediately.

Seeing that the two had introduced themselves, the bride and groom turned their eyes to Conan.

Seeing this, Conan had to say: "I am Conan who lives in Uncle Maori's house..."

After knowing that two of the three people seemed to have nothing to do with Maori Kogoro, the bride and groom had a hint of doubt in their eyes.

After keenly observing this, Maori Kogoro immediately laughed, pressed Conan's head with his hand, and shook it vigorously: "Because of some special reasons, this child is temporarily living in our house!"

"As for this kid..." At this point, Maori Kogoro looked at Tatsuno across from him, and his expression became a little unnatural.

After seeing Maori Kogoro's expression, the groom glanced at Tatsuno and Xiaolan who were sitting side by side, and grinned: "Even if you don't say it, I know. What they see is the same as you and Kisaki Eri back then~"

"Congratulations in advance, Maori~"

"Hmph!" Maori Kogoro snorted in dissatisfaction and turned his face to the side.

Xiaolan shyly looked at Tatsuno, and looked down at the table with embarrassment.

Seeing this, the groom laughed twice, then stepped forward and patted Tatsuno on the shoulder: "You are much more handsome than Maori was back then~ You must treat your girlfriend well!"

Hearing this, Tatsuno glanced at Xiaolan, smiled and nodded: "Yeah!"

At this time, Xiaolan also slowed down, looked up at the groom and the two, and said excitedly: "By the way! I heard that you two fell in love at first sight? "

The groom and the bride said one by one, smiling.

"Yeah, that's right~ The moment we met, I felt that this was fate!"

"Me too, I felt like I finally met the right person~"

"Our birthdays, blood types and experiences are surprisingly similar. Sometimes even without talking, you can know what the other person is thinking~"

"..."

Hearing the story-like encounter and words between the two, Xiaolan glanced at Tatsuno and said secretly.

Speaking of which, you protected me when we first met...

After thinking of various experiences in her childhood, Xiaolan smiled happily.

Just then, a waiter walked towards the crowd and accidentally smashed the cake in his hand on the groom.

"I'm sorry! !"

"Really! My clothes are all stained!" The groom looked at the stains on his body and was a little angry.

Seeing this, the waiter bowed his head and apologized: "I'm so sorry! I just came here to work today, and I'm not used to it yet! "

Before the groom could complain, the bride said, "It's okay, could you please bring some wet wipes or something?"

"Okay!" The waiter turned around and looked for wet wipes.

At this moment, Ryunosuke looked at the waiter's back and raised his lips slightly.

"Furukaya Rei, no... Is it Amuro Toru now?"
