Twenty minutes later.

Outside the Mihana Hotel, Jia Chen parked the car and walked towards the hotel with Xiao Ai.

Ai glanced around and noticed that most people looked serious, except for one man dressed in rock clothes with a rebellious expression, purple hair, and a black hat, who seemed out of place among the others.

"Most of the people here are police officers, right?" Ai blinked and asked in a low voice.

“Yes…” Jia Chen got on the elevator. “I would say that about 60% of them are people related to the Metropolitan Police Department.”

“After all, Officer Shiratori’s status as the heir to the Shiratori Group is still very important,” Jia Chen patiently explained. “After that, there are the bride and groom’s friends, classmates, relatives, and so on. The last type is the future heir of the conglomerate and celebrities from all walks of life.”

"Hmm... so there are really a lot of people." Ai nodded.

“It’s mainly about exchanging information and connections,” Jia Chen said. “After all, connections are very valuable here. Most of the gatherings at the top are about exchanging information and connections in order to gain more benefits.”

Ai listened attentively...

bite....

The elevator reached the fifteenth floor, and the doors slowly opened.

After Jia Chen and Xiao Ai stepped out of the elevator, they signed the wedding banquet guestbook.

Because Ai is a child, she doesn't need to sign.

Jia Chen picked up a pen, scribbled a couple of times on it, and continued walking forward.

Ai peeked out and said: "... "

Why is Jia Chen's handwriting so ugly?!

"Why is your handwriting so ugly?" Ai couldn't help but say to Jia Chen with half-moon eyes.

Jia Chen remained silent.

After transmigrating, he became proficient in languages, but he still had to control his body, so he... couldn't write Japanese at all.

Besides, he wouldn't idly practice his handwriting.

Seeing Jia Chen's silent expression, his pale red eyes slightly lowered, he seemed somewhat embarrassed.

A strange sense of pleasure welled up inside Ai.

Most of the people present were police officers, and because of this critical moment, the atmosphere at the wedding banquet was somewhat somber.

"Jiachen, you're here." Officer Shiratori greeted Jiachen with a smile after spotting him.

Jia Chen nodded in greeting and offered some words of blessing.

Immediately afterwards, Inspector Megure, Wataru Takagi, Sato, and other familiar police officers came over to greet him one by one.

"Ai looks so cute today..." Inspector Megure said with a smile, looking at Ai Haibara who was clutching the hem of Kashin's clothes.

“Exactly, just like a cold and aloof noble princess.” Sato Miwako also half-squatted down, looking at Ai.

After noticing this, Takagi Wataru turned around and looked over, saying, "Officer Sato is absolutely right."

The police officers, dressed in formal attire and looking somewhat menacing, also turned to look, and the tense atmosphere around them immediately eased considerably.

"What an adorable little girl."

"I remember my son is about the same age as this girl..."

People around them were talking and laughing.

Ai, feeling uncomfortable under the gaze of others, grabbed onto Jia Chen's clothes and hid behind him.

When Jia Chen heard someone mention arranging a marriage between their children, his face darkened, and his icy demeanor radiated outwards.

He pulled Ai aside to have some snacks.

Ai also noticed Jia Chen's actions, and a sense of pleasure rose in her heart once again.

This is the first time I've seen Jia Chen so jealous.

Most importantly, he's jealous of children.

A while later, Ran Mouri, Kogoro Mouri, Conan, Eri Kisaki, and Sonoko Suzuki arrived late.

After signing my name, I walked towards the venue.

Kogoro Mouri and Eri Kisaki are both very famous, so it was natural for them to exchange pleasantries.

Meanwhile, Ran Mouri and Sonoko Suzuki chatted as they waited for Gatsuki's arrival at the venue.

Conan, meanwhile, stood to the side, his eyes half-moon-shaped, holding his head, looking utterly bored.

"Hey, hey, did you see that? That man in black is so handsome!" a richly dressed young woman whispered. "And he's with a super cute little girl too."

"It's not that he's handsome, it's that he has a very strong presence. I wanted to go up and ask for his contact information, but when I got in front of him, I was too scared to say anything," a girl next to her retorted.

"Oh, what a pity. Although he's handsome, I always feel a sense of oppression and restraint when I'm around him. I feel like I'm afraid of ruining my image, and I feel like I'm intentionally or unintentionally keeping my distance from everyone," the elegant young woman said again.

"But he's really cool! Slightly long black hair, crimson eyes, a well-proportioned and strong physique, and I've heard my dad say before that he has a powerful background; at his age, he's already in charge of a corporation. As for being oppressive, that's not quite it. He doesn't seem to care about the brown-haired girl next to him..."

"Is he very gentle?" The girl's cheeks flushed, as if she were lost in thought. "And, most importantly, he's not married!"

The two girls chatted as they passed by Ran Mouri and the others.

"This... why does this sound so familiar?" Sonoko Suzuki reached out and touched her chin, thinking.

“So this is Garchen Gege.” Conan looked at Suzuki Sonoko with his half-moon eyes. “He probably arrived quite early.”

"Let's go find Brother Jiachen now," Ran Mouri said somewhat hastily.

"What, Ran? You're not worried that someone will steal Jia Chen away, are you?" Suzuki Sonoko chuckled and nudged Ran with her elbow.

"Sonoko, don't talk nonsense!" Ran's cheeks instantly turned red.

"That's right, don't talk nonsense!" Conan's face turned green instantly.

The group entered the venue and found Jia Chen...

Although police officers often wear black, Jia Chen is still easy to recognize. She has a cold aura and a calm expression, with a cool, aloof girl with tea-colored hair standing next to her.

A short while later, after spotting Jia Chen, the group went up to greet him.

"Brother Jiachen, I didn't expect you to arrive so early." Ran Mouri stepped forward and glanced at Jiachen's clothes, noticing that he wasn't wearing a burgundy sweater, and her eyes revealed a disappointment that she herself didn't realize.

But it only lasted a fleeting moment.

"Well, there wasn't much to do, so I came early." Jia Chen looked at Ran Mouri.

Today, she was wearing a burgundy jacket over a light yellow sleeveless top and a matching skirt. Her legs looked fair and supple due to her long-term exercise, and she exuded a pure and youthful charm.

"Pfft, hahaha, I was wondering why this aloof little brat is dressed so cutely today, and looks so timid." Sonoko Suzuki noticed Ai standing behind Kashin and tugged at the hem of her clothes, laughing heartily.

Ai gave Suzuki Sonoko a curt warning, her expression indifferent, and nodded in response.

"Hmm, it's been so long since you've seen me, have you missed me?" Sonoko Suzuki chuckled as she half-squatted down, looking at Ai.

Ai Haibara remained calm.

"I knew you'd look cold, you little brat. I even bought you a gift." Sonoko Suzuki took out a delicate handbag from her bag.

Ai's eyes flickered for a moment.

This bag has been out of stock in Japan for a long time; it's practically priceless.

She had always wanted it before she shrunk, but she could never buy it.

However, after seeing Sonoko Suzuki's sly look, Ai hesitated for a moment before calmly turning her head away.

Then, I secretly peeked into the bag.

dont see.

Sneaking a peek at the bag...

"Come on, Ai, it took me a long time to find this bag." Sonoko Suzuki seemed to notice the hesitation in the aloof little girl and winked enticingly.

"Thank you, Sonoko-neechan." In the end, Ai couldn't resist the temptation of the Demon Queen Sonoko and reached out her little hand to grab the bag.

Hearing the soft, sweet voice of the aloof girl, Sonoko Suzuki immediately opened her mouth, stuck out her tongue, and let out a laugh as mesmerizing as Kogoro Mouri's, "Oh ho ho ho ho!"

I'm so happy to be able to feed this little girl!

Everyone:

Kogoro Mouri, who had just walked over: "...

Fei Yingli: "

A group of police officers nearby also turned their attention to them.
