Conan: Another Famous Detective

Chapter 377 Now is not the time to go back

What Xiaolan wanted to express was obvious enough.

This Maotai liquor needs to be delivered by her concubine Yingli.

Fei Yingli's mind was spinning, and she suddenly had some doubts about whether Xiaolan reminded Kogoro Mouri to give her Jikoba chocolate.

"Xiaolan has really worked hard for the two of us..." Fei Yingli sighed in her heart, and couldn't help but feel a sense of guilt.

She glanced at Moori Kogoro who was full of disappointment, and thought of the box of Jikoba chocolates in her bag, she sighed in her heart, and said calmly: "I heard in Mengyu that this Maotai wine is so good. I’m also somewhat interested.”

"Well, this wine is not cheap after all. Xiaolan, I'm very satisfied that you can treat us to such delicious Chinese cuisine. You don't have to spend money on this Moutai."

Fei Yingli said, walked to the door of the box, opened the door and walked out.

About two minutes later, Fei Yingli walked in again and said with a smile:

"I've already told the waiter that he will deliver the packaged Maotai wine later."

Mouri Kogoro glanced at Fei Yingli, then turned his head to the side and said nothing.

After a while, the restaurant waiter came in carrying two large boxes.

"Guest, this is the Moutai you asked for." The waiter placed two boxes of Moutai on the table.

Fei Yingli frowned: "Didn't I just want a box of two bottles of Maotai? Why did you bring two boxes?"

The waiter maintained an impeccable smile and replied: "That's right, you are the thousandth customer to buy our Moutai this month."

"According to our restaurant's practice, we will give you another box of Moutai for free."

"Free? But I can't ask for so much? Can it be exchanged for something of equal value?" Fei Yingli asked.

"Sorry, that's not possible!" the waiter smiled.

Seeing this, Fei Yingli could only nod and said: "Okay, then you can put the wine here."

"Okay, if you need anything else, call me anytime." The waiter bowed and left the box.

Fei Yingli looked at the two boxes of Maotai in front of her, was silent for a while, and then placed one of the boxes in front of Mouri Kogoro:

"You're lucky, the restaurant happens to have a discount, and I can't afford that much wine. This box of Maotai will be cheaper for you!"

Mouri Kogoro looked at the beautifully packaged box in front of him, and at the exquisite wine bottle lying quietly in a layer of transparent film, his eyes became brighter and brighter.

He hugged the whole box into his arms and was moved to tears: "Hey, this is Maotai worth 100,000 yuan a bottle. This box is worth 200,000 yuan. I have to taste it when I go back." !”

He looked at Fei Yingli again, his expression twisted for a while, and then he coughed lightly and said: "Well, Yingli, I still like this box of Maotai liquor...Thank you."

The final "Thank you" sound was almost inaudible.

"Don't get me wrong, I was just buying it for myself. Who said I was so lucky to be the thousandth customer?"

As Fei Yingli spoke, she turned her head to one side and did not make direct eye contact with Mouri Kogoro.

Xiaolan and other juniors immediately noticed the faint blush on Fei Yingli's face.

Yu Gongming and Meng Yu looked at each other, smiled slightly, and understood.

They have been to this Chinese restaurant many times, but they have never heard of such an event. This Chinese restaurant has never used marketing methods such as discounts for the first certain customers.

And Yu Gongming knew that the service of this Chinese restaurant was quite attentive, and there was a waiter outside each box to serve customers at any time.

Moreover, when the door opened, Yu Gongming also saw that the waiter belonging to the private room was outside, and there was no situation of being temporarily transferred from the restaurant.

If Fei Yingli just asked the waiter for Maotai, it wouldn't take more than two minutes.

Moreover, Fei Yingli would not go to the toilet, because two minutes would not be enough.

Therefore, based on these points, Yu Gongming can basically confirm that the so-called "buy one, get one free" mentioned by the waiter was actually discussed with the waiter in advance by Fei Yingli.

Fei Yingli would not be short of money for these two boxes of Maotai, but she wanted the waiter to say it was a buy one get one free gift.

To put it bluntly, she just didn’t want to admit that she bought Maotai specifically for Kogoro Mori.

Of course, such a cover-up is purely self-deception, not even Mouri Kogoro can be deceived.

"This is really an old couple. Even when they look arrogant, they are virtuous..." Yu Gongming muttered in his heart.

After this episode, the atmosphere between the Maori couple became quite delicate.

Although it was obvious that the atmosphere between the two was not stiff, neither one spoke to the other.

Seeing this, Xiaolan decided to divert their attention.

"Well, now that everyone has eaten, it's still early, why don't we go for a walk nearby!"

"I have nothing to do, I might as well take a walk." Fei Yingli said, glancing at Mouri Kogoro covertly, and just met Moori Kogoro's secretly peeking eyes.

The two people's eyes met, and it was as if they were electrocuted.

"We don't care." Yu Gongming and Meng Yu said in unison.

"I will go wherever Sister Xiaolan goes!" Conan said that he would follow Xiaolan closely.

When Mouri Kogoro saw that several people had expressed their opinions, he coughed slightly and said with a serious face: "I don't worry about you guys wandering around at night."

"For your safety, I will reluctantly follow you!"

"Pfft!"

Mouri Kogoro's behavior made Xiaolan and Mengyu laugh a little.

"Hey! What are you two girls laughing at?" Mouri Kogoro said angrily.

"Well, it's nothing, I suddenly thought of something happy." Mengyu immediately said righteously.

"I laughed when I saw Meng Yu. I don't know why, but I want to laugh too." Xiaolan's answer was even more rogue, and she directly threw the blame on Meng Yu.

"You guys... forget it, if you want to leave, hurry up. If you don't leave, I will go back!" Mouri Kogoro snorted.

"Okay, I'll go check out right away!" Xiaolan said as she stood up and walked out of the box.

"I also have to pay for the Maotai liquor." Fei Yingli said and followed Xiaolan.

Yu Gongming and others were in the box, waiting for the two of them to return.

Not long after, everything was cleaned up, and the group of people left the Huaxia Restaurant and started walking along the street.

"It's been a long time since I went out for a walk at night with my parents like this!" Xiaolan suddenly sighed.

Fei Yingli was startled when she heard this, and there was a hint of emotion in her expression: "Yes, your father and I often took you out at night when you were a child. Sometimes your father would even rent a car and take you for a ride!"

"Oh, Xiaolan often rode on my shoulders at that time. Now Xiaolan has grown up and I can't even hold her." Mouri Kogoro couldn't help but sigh.

"Yes, I really miss the time when I was a child and went out to play with my parents at night..."

Xiaolan suddenly looked at Fei Yingli, her eyes full of hope: "Mom, would you like to move back here? I really want to go out for a walk and chat with my parents every day like now..."

Fei Yingli faced Xiaolan's hopeful eyes and listened to Xiaolan's sincere words, and her heart trembled!

However, at this moment, Mouri Kogoro's voice suddenly sounded:

"Wow! It's Miss Yoko! Miss Yoko is so cute!"

Several people turned around and saw Mouri Kogoro staring at the TV set on a building not far away with a crazy look on his face.

A variety show in which Okino Yoko participated was playing on the TV.

"Miss Yoko!" Mouri Kogoro stared straight at the TV, drooling from the corner of his mouth unknowingly.

That expression must be so wretched and wretched.

Fei Yingli's face immediately turned cold, and she said in a stiff tone: "No, I don't think I will be popular when I go back, so let's forget it."

She glanced at her watch: "It's late now. I have work tomorrow, so I'll leave first."

Fei Yingli said and walked forward faster.

"Mom! Wait a minute!" Xiaolan wanted to call Fei Yingli, but Fei Yingli ignored Xiaolan at all and left without looking back.

Xiaolan stared blankly at Fei Yingli's retreating figure, and then glanced at Mouri Kogoro beside her, her anger level instantly exploded.

"dad!"

She squeezed out these two words through her teeth, clenched her pink fists, and hit Mouri Kogoro hard!

Suddenly a man's shrill scream came from the street, and the sound shook all directions.

On the other side, after getting out of Xiaolan's sight, Fei Yingli's cold expression suddenly turned lonely.

"Xiaolan, it's not that I don't want to go back, it's just...it's not the time yet..." she murmured in her heart.
