Ke Xue: My standards for dating are not problematic!

Chapter 311 Who's coming to my room tonight? Or, all of you together? I can handle it!
Noboribetsu Onsen Restaurant.

After being served at the hot springs, the group arrived at a restaurant filled with tatami mats, with a screen separating the area not far away.

On the other side of the screen were the other guests.

This also means that if you speak too loudly, other guests can easily hear you and it will disturb them.

So, the hot springs here are great, but the restaurants are rather disappointing.

There isn't even a private room.

However, this isn't entirely without its advantages; at least...
Akiko Yonehara, Yukiko, Eri Kisaki, and the others would only look at Reiko Kujo and Natsuhiro Kitahara with murderous eyes, without saying anything excessive.

After all, there are many people here, and one shouldn't air their dirty laundry in public.

Even so, the atmosphere on their side was still very strange.

"This atmosphere is really weird," Sonoko whispered to Ran.

By this time, Sonoko already knew what Reiko Kujo had been up to.

After all, she's a well-bred young lady, and she's not young anymore. She knows what she should know, but she still needs to be reminded by others. After being reminded, she understands everything, including Ran, Conan, and Koizumi Akako.
As for how Ran and Conan found out, it's all thanks to Sonoko's big mouth.

Fortunately, Sonoko only told Conan, Ran, and Akako Koizumi; she didn't tell anyone else. As for the others, they are all adults and understand.

Therefore, the atmosphere became somewhat strange during the meal.

"Yuanzi." Xiaolan rolled her eyes at Yuanzi, signaling her not to add fuel to the fire in this place, otherwise it would be troublesome if other people heard it.

Who knows, they might actually start fighting.

However, Xiaolan really wanted to see this scene.

Koizumi Akako, who was standing next to her, did the same.

"Hehe." Sonoko chuckled, then stopped talking and ate the sashimi and sushi on the table while watching this strange scene.

She wants to eat, but she also wants to watch the play.

Not only Sonoko is like this, but Ran, Akako Koizumi, Conan, Tooru Amuro, and Azusa Enomoto are also the same.

By this time, the six of them had formed a group of six spectators.

Even if it were hailing or raining knives outside, they wouldn't give up their plan to watch the show.

Watching a play for a moment, then eating a bite of food, is truly a perfect way to enjoy a meal!
"Ahem." Sitting to one side, Kitahara Natsuyu coughed twice, noticing everyone's gaze, and said with a smile, "What are you all looking at me for? Hurry up and eat, or it'll get cold."

As soon as he finished speaking, he realized that something was wrong with what he had said.

Because sashimi, sushi, and the like are meant to be eaten cold.

“Sashimi is supposed to be cold.” Akiko Yonehara glanced at Reiko Kujo, who was beaming, and said softly, “But my heart is colder than sashimi.”

This is a lie!

Akiko Yonehara isn't the type of woman who likes to be jealous, and she's past that age, but she still has a bit of a temper.

Because Reiko Kujo actually ran away.

Damn it, she'd never even tried doing *that* in a hot spring, and this woman, Reiko Kujo, beat her to it.

Reiko Kujo, you really deserve to die!

"Here we come."

Upon hearing this, Sonoko, Ran, Conan, Amuro Tooru, and Enomoto Azusa all inwardly screamed, then stopped eating and their gazes drifted to Kitahara Natsuhiro, Yonehara Akiko, and Kujo Reiko, among others.

Exciting!
"Um"

Just as Kitahara Natsuyu was about to say something, Kujo Reiko spoke first: "I'm sorry, I know I was wrong today, so I'll punish myself with three cups of tea instead of wine."

Because she wants to get pregnant, she doesn't drink much alcohol. What if she gets pregnant after drinking?

Therefore, tea was the only option to replace alcohol.

"Uh"

Upon hearing this, Akiko Yonehara froze, speechless, unable to utter the words she had been pondering for so long.

After all, Reiko Kujo was too straightforward; she actually apologized directly.

She thought that Reiko Kujo would be stubborn, or say nothing at all, or let Natsuhiro Kitahara say something.

But Reiko Kujo was the only one who apologized directly, which was something she hadn't expected.

Damn it, all the plans have been ruined. What will happen to her dignity as the empress?

Fortunately, Reiko Kujo apologized, and her authority as the principal wife was preserved, so the problem wasn't serious.

Moreover, she helped Kitahara Natsuhiro out of a predicament; she is indeed a good woman.

Of course, Kitahara Natsuhiro was also at fault, but Kujo Reiko took all the blame upon herself.

What a wonderful woman.

When Akiko Yonehara was stunned, the other women were also stunned. They hadn't expected Reiko Kujo to be so decisive and single.

Besides, since Akiko Yonehara, their official girlfriend, hadn't said anything, the others felt too embarrassed to say anything either.

After all, they are all of the same status, let alone the second brother.

"Huh? That's it?!"

Koizumi Akako, Sonoko, Ran, Conan, Enomoto Azusa, and Amuro Tooru couldn't help but twitch their lips.

They thought it would ignite a major battle, but it ended up being such a disappointing flop.

We want to see rivers of blood.

But that's impossible, because Reiko Kujo has already interrupted the spell.

Reiko Kujo smiled as she watched Akiko Yonehara's spellcasting being interrupted. Then, she picked up the teacup on the table and drank it all in one gulp, repeating this three times in a row.

This can be considered an apology to Akiko Yonehara and everyone else.

Faced with Reiko Kujo's apology, Akiko Yonehara and the others accepted it.

Because they all knew why Reiko Kujo used tea instead of alcohol.

During these past few days, they all knew that Kujou Reiko wanted to get pregnant and have a child, and that she didn't have much desire to get married.

Therefore, they naturally wouldn't object.

After all, it's a good thing that someone has a child with Kitahara Natsuyu, as it would reduce the chances of him going out and fooling around with other women.

Furthermore, Kitahara Natsuhiro already has far too many women around him; it's not advisable to add any more.

After having children, Kitahara Natsuyu should be a bit older and stay at home to take care of them, so he won't go out and fool around anymore.

Moreover, they are not young anymore, and they are also very busy, so they don't have time to have children with Kitahara Natsumi.

Therefore, they strongly agreed that Reiko Kujo was willing to give herself to Natsumi Kitahara.

They approve of Reiko Kujo having a child, but they're a little angry that you sneaked off and secretly went to a private bathhouse with Natsuhiro Kitahara.

Since Reiko Kujo has already apologized, they won't dwell on the matter. At most, they'll ask Reiko Kujo to treat them to a meal; there will be no dinner with Natsuhiro Kitahara. It's a team-building activity for the women.

"Alright then." Akiko Yonehara nodded and raised her glass as well. "You can't do that again next time."

“Okay, just this once.” Reiko Kujo smiled as well.

She also knew that sneaking away was something that could only happen once; if she did it a second time, she would easily be attacked by the crowd.

Even Eri Kisaki would be quite dissatisfied with her.

After all, we're all women. Why should you run away without permission? That's unethical.

"Alright, everyone, hurry up and eat. The sashimi is going to go bad." Kitahara Natsuyu raised his glass at this moment.

The group exchanged glances, sighed, and then raised their glasses: "Cheers!"

Fine, I'll let this guy off the hook this time!
Everyone secretly thought.

Then, the atmosphere at the table immediately became harmonious, and everyone started chatting and laughing.

Even the three high school girls, Sonoko, Ran, and Akako Koizumi, were teased by these women. Amuro Tooru also couldn't escape their clutches, along with Enomoto Azusa.

After all, are you allowed to watch the show, but we're not?

Although Amuro Tooru and others don't have many shows to watch, they can put on a show.

Moreover, they are not young anymore, and it's time for them to consider their future, especially Amuro Tooru and Enomoto Azusa.

In no time, Sonoko, Ran, Koizumi Akako, Enomoto Azusa, and Amuro Tooru were no match for the firepower of these mature women and were forced to retreat.

If they hadn't been eating, they probably would have already fled.

There was no way to stop them; their firepower was simply too intense, and they were too eloquent. They simply couldn't handle it!

Even Amuro Tooru, an elite member of the Japanese Public Security Bureau who has seen many big scenes, was unable to resist. He could only break out in a cold sweat and look at Kitahara Natsuhiro with hopeful eyes, hoping that Kitahara Natsuhiro could come to their rescue.

However, Kitahara Natsuhiro simply raised his glass, clinked it with Amuro Tooru and the others, and then took small sips.

"Save you?"

"impossible!"

"Since you've watched our show, it's perfectly normal for us to watch yours too."

"So just obediently accept the interrogation from these queens!"

Most of the women in front of me are married, and even those who are not married are not young, so they all have the skill of talking at once.

And as they talked, the conversation drifted to marriage.

Fortunately, none of the people in front of them were married, and Amuro Tooru and Enomoto Azusa were already of marriageable age.

Even Sonoko and Ran felt the same way, but they told Amuro Tooru and Enomoto Azusa something different.

Eri Kisaki, in particular, doesn't like Shinichi Kudo very much, and lately she's practically disappeared from sight; he's completely unreliable.

If possible, Eiichi Kisaki would like to break up Ran and Shinichi Kudo.

If Koizumi Akako isn't teased much, she might not be familiar with him enough!

"Sigh!!!" Conan, who was watching the show from the side, suddenly froze.

Unexpectedly, he ended up getting caught up in the drama himself, except that he's now Conan Edogawa, not Shinichi Kudo.

However, what Eri Kisaki said was like stabbing him in the chest, and he had no way to refute it.

After all, he is Conan now, not Shinichi Kudo, so he can only listen and even have to force a smile.

hateful!

Xiaolan and I are childhood sweethearts, how dare you separate us!
Oh, you're Xiaolan's mother. That's alright then.

There was nothing he could do but accept Eri's words.

Fortunately, his mother, Yukiko, was also there, so Conan winked at her, asking her to help shut up Aunt Eri Kisaki, otherwise he really couldn't take it anymore.

However, Yukiko is someone who enjoys watching a good show, so how could she possibly speak up for Shinichi Kudo?

Moreover, she is now Conan's mother and has no relation to Shinichi Kudo, so naturally she has no reason to speak up for him.

so.
"Shinichi, you little rascal, you've got a moment to ask me for help now, huh?" Yukiko winked at her son, "Unfortunately, your old mom can't help you right now."

"After all, my current identity is Edogawa Fumiyo, not Fujimine Yukiko, so there's nothing I can do to help."

"So keep going, son! You have to believe in the childhood sweetheart relationship between you and Xiaolan!"

However, she understands her son and Ran, and after Eri Kisaki and Kogoro Mouri's childhood friendship fell apart, she no longer had a high opinion of so-called childhood friends.

Moreover, Conan doesn't even know when he'll be able to turn back into Shinichi Kudo, and if that takes too long...

The childhood friendship between Ran and Shinichi will also fade with time. In addition, Ran is very outstanding and will not lack suitors.
Conan is probably going to cry his eyes out.

We can't expect Ran to wait for Conan for over ten years, only to have him marry Ran after he graduates high school, can we?

Even if Ran is willing to wait for Shinichi for this long, she still wouldn't be willing to marry Conan.

After all, Conan is Conan, and Shinichi is Shinichi. Although they look the same, there are still differences!
So ten years later, they will just be the most familiar strangers!

Therefore, if Conan wants to turn back into Shinichi Kudo, he will need to seek help from the manufacturer of this drug.

Ai Haibara was among them, but unfortunately, she had no interest in developing an antidote.

But there's still plenty of time. Maybe Ai will get interested later and develop an antidote.

Conan, just you wait!
"Damn Mom! She's got a boyfriend and now she doesn't care about her son anymore! It's so annoying!" Conan's cheeks twitched involuntarily, and he could only silently drink his juice to relieve his depressed mood.

Fortunately, Amuro Tooru and Enomoto Azusa couldn't hold out any longer and chose to run away.

"I've had a bit too much to drink, I'm going out for some fresh air."

"Me too!"

And so, Amuro Tooru and Enomoto Azusa ran away one after the other.

If they don't run away soon, they really won't be able to hold on any longer, and maybe the next day some men and women will come to them for blind dates.

They have no reason to doubt these women's connections.

It could even be said that these women have connections even greater than Amuro Tooru's.

Meanwhile, Koizumi Akako, Sonoko, Ran, and Conan followed suit and ran away as well.

After they left, only Kitahara Natsuhiro and his women remained.

Since they were all on the same side, Kitahara Natsuyu spoke frankly.

"Who's coming to my room today?"

"Or, come at me all at once, I can handle it!"
