“400 million pounds.” Rum said with a smile.
The man's legs buckled, and he almost passed out.
How can there be so much money?
Chapter 294 Rare Item, Sad Face.
Another week passed.
Professor Agasa's special fund has arrived, and Rum and Gin's previously gloomy expressions have brightened considerably.
After seeing the solar-powered skateboard and a series of gadgets, the gentleman praised Dr. Agasa, saying that he was a true scientist.
He also gifted Professor Agasa a bottle of Martell brandy.
A brandy that constantly innovates and advances in the research industry, breaking away from traditional brewing methods.
The doctor smiled broadly and praised the gentleman as a good person.
Meanwhile, the atmosphere at the Mouri Detective Agency had also become much more relaxed. Kogoro finally realized that nothing had actually happened in the past two weeks.
The terrorist organization seemed to have confirmed that he really knew nothing and stopped paying attention to him.
He immediately said goodbye to Xiaolan and went downstairs to visit the izakaya and the horse racing track to check if there was any danger.
In the final round, he got drunk at the pub, won at the horse racing betting station, and received the answer that everything was normal and there was no danger.
The outer members of the real "Black Organization" who were secretly protecting Kogoro Mouri's family were also freed.
After delivering the wine to Professor Agasa, Kachin opened the wanted poster and searched through the list of criminals.
No suitable target was found.
Recently, Conan has been staying at the detective agency and hasn't come out, which has led to a period of relative calm in Beika Town.
There are no robbers or murderers emerging, plus Kira is very famous now.
Some people no longer dared to act recklessly.
Fortunately, it's Sunday today, so Ai doesn't have to go to school and can have some fun.
After all, Ai has always had a good sense of humor.
Jia Chen calmed himself down and returned to his apartment.
After the door was opened, the sound of a movie playing could be heard from inside.
"Pfft..." Ai sat on the sofa, covering her mouth and chuckling softly.
The television channel in front of her seemed to be broadcasting something.
Moreover... it should be quite interesting to sense Ai's joyful emotions using Observation Haki.
It's either a comedy variety show or a movie...
Jia Chen walked over to Xiao Ai's side. "Watching a movie?"
"Mmm." Ai nodded, glancing at Jia Chen. "You're back... Perfect timing to watch this movie with me."
Jia Chen's gaze shifted to the television.
The television was playing a black and white movie... and there was a string of English letters at the bottom.
The protagonist is a Mediterranean researcher who is muttering something to his assistant.
"Is it interesting?" Jia Chen glanced at it and thought it wasn't very interesting.
"Of course." Ai smiled, looking quite pleased, and patted the sofa beside her with her small hand. "Sit here and watch with me..."
“Okay.” Jia Chen nodded, then sat down next to Xiao Ai.
The researchers on the screen were using some technical terms, which Jia Chen, despite knowing English, still couldn't understand.
Seeing Ai's enthusiastic expression, Jia Chen felt like he'd been watching a completely pointless game.

So... he simply sat on the sofa, propped his head up with his hands, and looked at Ai.
6
As Ai's lips curled into a smile, Jia Chen smiled along, pretending to understand.

Finally, the movie ended...

Jia Chen watched Ai Haibara for a full hour without paying any attention to what was happening in the movie.
3
"How are you feeling?" Ai asked.
8
"It's a really good comedy movie." Jia Chen nodded. "I laughed."
0
"This isn't a comedy movie," Ai Haibara said, looking at Jia Chen with some surprise. Then, as if she had thought of something, she burst out laughing and leaned closer to Jia Chen's face. "I say, Mr. Jia Chen, do you not understand it?"
⑻6]9⑤9柒3]89找输裙,

Looking at the delicate and smiling Ai in front of him, Jia Chen took a deep breath, "You smiled just now too."
5
Ai Haibara blinked, stared at Gatatsu for a full half minute, and nodded. "Hmm, it is indeed very funny."
Sensing a gaze that seemed to say, "I see right through you, you don't understand anything, but I'm not saying anything," Jia Chen couldn't help but reach out and pinch Xiao Ai's cheek. "So, what's the name of this movie?"
"Einstein's glorious and troubled years," Ai Haibara began, "Part Two."
Jia Chen: "...
He remembered watching the first season with Ai Haibara, but... he was only focused on Ai Haibara at the time.
"I understood a little bit, and it's somewhat funny," Jia Chen said calmly.
"Hmph..." Ai chuckled softly, "You're right."
"By the way, there's something I've been wanting to tell you," Jia Chen said, changing the subject.
"What is it?" Xiao Ai nodded, kneeling on the sofa and staring at Jia Chen.
"Have you thought about the promise I made last time?" Jia Chen's eyes narrowed slightly.
Ai was stunned for a moment, then her cheeks flushed uncontrollably.
She remembered when Jia Chen "accidentally" grabbed her little white rabbit milk candy.
And then I owe her a promise.
And perhaps it's because they know that area is very sensitive.
Last time, during the serene moment, Jia Chen ate for a full two hours... and even coated the milky white bunny candy with cream.
"Why are you blushing?" Jia Chen noticed that Xiao Ai's expression was off and reached out to touch her forehead. "You don't mean to make me do that, do you?"
He remembered how Ai had tried to blindfold herself with a black cloth, but was outmaneuvered.
"No! That's not it!" Ai took a deep breath. "But I haven't thought of that yet. I'll think about it when the time comes."
"Okay." Jia Chen nodded in agreement, then changed the subject, "So, is Xiao Ai going to give me a gift?"
"A gift?" Ai paused, then said, "Me."
"Weren't you prepared?" Jia Chen leaned back on the sofa, head down, her voice revealing undisguised disappointment and sadness. "I heard that couples give each other gifts."
Seeing Jia Chen's expression of 'being sad and just wanting to be alone,' Xiao Ai felt that it was her fault for not preparing a gift.
But... wasn't that Fusae handbag meant to apologize to her?
"Okay, okay." Seeing Jia Chen's expression, Xiao Ai couldn't help but smile again...
After all... Jia Chen's aggrieved face is extremely rare.
"I've prepared a gift for you." Ai stood on the sofa, stood on tiptoe, and reached out to roughly rub Jia Chen's hair.
Then she jumped off the sofa and ran back to the bedroom, seemingly searching for something.
And Jia Chen also calmed down... Sure enough, after the relationship was confirmed, Xiao Ai became more and more difficult to deal with.
If we don't do that, won't Ai find out that he didn't know anything and was just pretending to know everything?
If he were to reveal this, where would Kira, a core member of the organization, a police advisor, and a king, put his face?
"Here...this is a gift for you, choose one." Ai took two items out of the bedroom.
It's a designer lipstick... I think I bought it when I got bigger last time.
The other was a women's wallet, which looked quite exquisite.
"This is a Saint Laurent men's wallet, and a lipstick. Which one do you want?" Ai asked.
