Back at the office, as soon as he opened the door, he saw Uncle Mori drinking a can of beer. With a happy expression, he said to Kōyū as he entered, "Kōyū, here's the check for 100,000 yen. You can decide how to use it."
"Uncle, please keep it for me," Guangyou said without even thinking.
Uncle Mori nodded in satisfaction upon hearing this: "Alright, I'll keep this money for you. You can ask me for it anytime you need it."
"Hey, Ran-neechan, why is Uncle so happy?" Conan asked curiously.
Xiaolan tidied the table and said with a smile, "When Dad came back from receiving the award today, he passed by a store and tried his luck in the lottery. He won a travel voucher for Nanki Shirahama. We're planning to take you two out to play when you're resting."
"Not bad, Uncle's luck is off the charts today." Guangyou lay comfortably on the sofa.
"Hahaha, I, Kogoro Mouri, am not just a nobody! Back in college, I could hit the bullseye every time..."
Listening to Uncle Mori's boasting, Kōyū smiled and said, "This kind of life is great."
"Guangyou, you've been out playing all day. Go take a shower first. The bathwater is ready for you." Xiaolan's voice rang out from the kitchen.
"Hi!"
...
The day after starting school, Ai tells Kousuke that Kano and Shino's engagement party is scheduled for the next night, and Kano has invited a group of people, including Ayumi and the others, to attend.
After hearing the news, Ayumi couldn't calm down all day. After school, she excitedly ran straight home, leaving behind the words, "I'm going to change into a nice dress for the engagement party!"
Meanwhile, Kouyu, Ai, and a slightly helpless Conan went directly to the hotel where the engagement banquet was being held. The Kano family was not short of money, and the hotel they booked was quite nice.
However, not many people were invited; only some acquaintances were invited, so the banquet hall was not very large. At this time, many people had already arrived at the banquet hall.
Judging from the fact that they were all chatting, most of them were probably relatives and friends of both sides. Among them, Guangyou also saw Tosabayashi Aki and Tsunashima Yoshio from a few days ago.
At this moment, Tsunashima Yoshio stood in front of a middle-aged man wearing a suit with graying hair, bowing his head respectfully.
"Mr. Kano, I'm sorry, I was confused for a moment, I'm so sorry," Tsuna said, bowing his head with deep regret.
"It's alright. I believe you won't let my son down. I hope that gem can be used for good." The middle-aged man waved his hand.
Gangdao responded a few more times and then hurriedly left. Although Gana Zhaoye had invited him and forgiven him, he still couldn't get over the hurdle in his heart.
The middle-aged man turned to look at Kōyū, stepped forward, and smiled, "You must be the Kōyū, Conan, and Ai that Shōyū mentioned. Hello, I am Shōyū's father, Kano Ichirō."
"Hello, Uncle Kano." Kōyū and Conan greeted Ichirō Kano.
Kano Ichiro nodded, his smile widening: "Thanks to your help this time. If it were Teruyo, this matter wouldn't have been resolved so smoothly."
Kōyū and Conan chuckled twice, but didn't say anything. They knew that other people's sons had the right to speak, and it would be impolite for Kōyū and Conan to agree with them.
"Kuangyou, you've arrived!" Ayumi's unique voice rang out behind Kuangyou.
Turning his head, Guangyou had to admit that Ayumi's appearance was absolutely top-notch at her age. Today, she was wearing a pink princess dress and a cute hair accessory.
"How is it? Does it look good?" Ayumi smiled and twirled around twice to show it off.
Her little face was rosy, and her bright eyes blinked twice as she looked at Conan. Conan coughed lightly and replied, "She's pretty."
Hearing Conan's praise, Ayumi was visibly even happier.
Ai stood beside Kousuke, covering her mouth and chuckling softly. How could she not know Ayumi's thoughts? She had done this before, wanting to show off her new clothes in front of someone.
"Now, please welcome the two newlyweds to the stage!" The host's magnetic voice rang out, and the guests present all quieted down and looked at the stage.
Accompanied by the spotlight, Shino, holding Kano's hand, slowly walked to the front of the stage. Today, Shino was wearing a pure white wedding dress with a train that touched the floor and trailed behind her.
Ghana was wearing a black suit, his back was straight, and the suit, combined with his neat hairstyle, made him look even more handsome.
Looking at Shino, who was the center of attention, the eyes of all the unmarried women present sparkled, including Ayumi and Ai.
Wearing a wedding dress is undoubtedly one of the most beautiful moments in a woman's life.
A pure white wedding dress, the man she loves by her side, walking down the red carpet, feeling the envious and blessing gazes of those around her.
As for the most handsome moment for a man, in the eyes of many women, it's when he pays the bill without saying a word.
Kōyū saw all of this. In fact, he had dreamed of this scene many times, but the faces of the people around him were blurry. Although he liked Ai Haibara in his past life, he was not stupid. He just used figurines to represent some people for him to confide in.
But now he has arrived in this world, in this world he previously thought did not exist, and has truly come to know her through the screen, a living, breathing, flesh-and-blood woman.
Perhaps at the beginning, his feelings were just the excitement of getting to know the character through the screen, but as he got to know him better each day, that excitement gradually faded, and was replaced by a protective instinct.
