In short, no one was surprised by the way Jia Chen entered.
Chapter 335 As expected of you, Conan!
"Thank you, Ai and Brother Jiachen..." Xiaolan said with a smile.
"This is a gift for you." Jia Chen took a gift box out of his black trench coat and handed it to Ran Mouri.
Xiaolan blinked, took the gift box, and held it in her hand. It looked like a thermos.
The weather's getting cooler... I'm getting a thermos for myself, so I can avoid drinking cold water when I'm on my period, and also remind her to drink more hot water.
As expected... what Brother Jiachen said before was almost a confession, but he clearly didn't deviate from it at all.
But now it seems that Brother Jiachen is still very thoughtful.
Xiaolan's heart was pounding, and the little deer in her heart told her that she was right.
"You guys chat first, I'll go get the ingredients." Xiaolan, carrying her thermos, walked towards the kitchen.
Kogoro Mouri stood to the side, holding up a newspaper and stealing glances at the scene.
“Mr. Mori, I’ve also prepared a gift for you.” Jia Chen took the gift box out of the bag and handed it to Kogoro Mori.
"Ahem, kid Jia Chen, I can't accept this." Kogoro Mouri put down the newspaper, glanced at the gift box, and his heart instantly became excited.
The solid wood box rested firmly in the other person's hands. The box had delicate patterns around its edges, and the gold plaque in the center was engraved with the ROLEX logo.
Rolex...and a very valuable Rolex at that.
Kogoro Mouri, a former outstanding police officer, keenly sensed something was amiss and immediately suppressed his excitement...
He glanced at Xiao Lan, whose cheeks were slightly flushed... and his lips twitched.
Think of a possibility.
Holy crap, is this guy trying to bribe him with a Rolex and then take advantage of his daughter?
Although he's not the kind of playboy who's promiscuous, he's very devoted, and after investigation, he doesn't have any bad deeds. He's rich and wealthy... Isn't he the perfect catch?

As Kogoro Mouri pondered, his serious expression gradually revealed his tongue, and he was about to burst into laughter as he accepted the gift box... when Jia Chen slowly spoke.
“It seems Mr. Mori doesn’t really like this gift.” Jia Chen put the gift box away.
Yes, he had been observing Kogoro Mouri's expression the whole time. From the moment he took out the gift box, Kogoro Mouri's expression began to turn serious.
Normally, the other person should have laughed and accepted it, not been so indifferent.
It's incredible.
What exactly is the problem? Is it that you don't like watches?
He could only guess.
Just as he was about to reach out and take it, Kogoro Mouri stumbled and almost collapsed.
Ai Haibara watched this scene and couldn't help but smile slightly...
Conan swallowed hard.
That uncle is really something, he just had to show off in front of Jia Chen Gege... that's a Rolex that's already out of print.
Unlike him, he doesn't pretend at all.
"Hey... Brother Jiachen, where's my present?" Conan ran to Jiachen's legs with a big smile. At this distance, Conan could easily hug Jiachen's leg with just a stretch of his hand.
Conan didn't get a clear look at the gift box for Ran, but judging from the gifts he gave to Uncle Mori, his own wouldn't be too bad either.
Moreover, he happened to be short of money recently, so he could use the gift that Jia Chen gave him to give to Xiao Lan.
This is to make up for what I owed Ran before, and it can also serve as a New Year's gift. It can also prevent Ran from being easily seduced by the succubus Gachen from Beika Town.
Good grief, using Jia Chen's money to steal someone from Jia Chen, Conan, you're something else.
"Your gift?" Jia Chen looked down at Conan, whose forehead was only centimeters from his knees, and said calmly, "You don't have a gift..."
Although giving Conan a gift could benefit his future development with Conan, including joining the organization and getting to know Jin and Uozuka.
But... in Jia Chen's eyes, Conan is just a primary school student in the skin of a grim reaper, relying on the halo of an angel to prevent him from going on a killing spree.
Moreover, compared to his friends, Conan is far too strange.
Even though I gave him so much... I still inadvertently brought about his death.
This is why I refused to let Conan join the organization, even though the organization is now protected by an angelic halo.
But it can also easily lead to bad things... just like before, when he clearly had the protection of angels.
While playing at the amusement park with Ai Haibara, the Ferris wheel collapsed instantly simply because Conan was nearby.
I'm really afraid that if I'm not careful, Gin and Vodka will be gone, and the distillery will be dissolved in an instant.
and many more...
Jia Chen's gaze sharpened as he looked into Conan's large eyes, which held nothing but confusion and a sense of death.
He remembered... Conan's passive ability to trigger Death wasn't just about visiting other people's homes and having remote conversations (ccch), video calls were also possible.
As long as there is contact, one cannot escape the pursuit of death.
This was shown many times in the original storyline...
Leaving that aside for now... based on my own experience, plus the fact that Gin and Vodka had previously paid attention to Conan...
As a result, Gin caught a bad cold, and Vodka got a beating from Gin for eating a crispy corn tortilla in his Porsche 356A.
If the original storyline had unfolded as it did... Gin had never been sick, and Vodka had never been beaten up by Gin.
The premise is that vodka and gin are protected by angels...
He's currently worried about not being able to find that gentleman's location. If Conan joins the organization and demonstrates his ability to perfectly complete missions...
That gentleman should be interviewed again, especially since there's no angelic protection involved...
Does that mean he's definitely dead?
Although it's just speculation, as the main protagonist of the storyline and the black-haired boss, even Koizumi Akako couldn't predict the location of the Black Organization. To kill them, she'd still need Conan.
Ultimately, only one rule can kill another.
As the protagonist and boss of the Detective Conan world, this is just how fate is.
Brilliant! It adds a touch of vibrancy to the otherwise dull organization. I'm sure that gentleman will be full of praise when he finds out.
"Although I don't have a gift... I have something else for you." Jia Chen bent down and patted Conan's head.
Conan's stiff expression softened slightly, and he asked curiously, "What?"
"The organization's guaranteed admission quota..." Jia Chen whispered in Conan's ear.
Boom!
This news was undoubtedly a bolt from the blue for Conan.
The guaranteed admission spot organized by Jiachenggege was something he had always dreamed of.
However, because he was a primary school student, Jia Chen kept rejecting him.
"Are you telling the truth?" Conan's eyes lit up, and his little fists clenched tightly.
“Of course, but you need to pass an assessment,” Jia Chen explained calmly. “I know your thinking and intelligence far surpass those of the average elementary school student, which isn’t surprising to us, because there are people in this world called geniuses.”
Conan became excited upon hearing this.
Finally, finally someone understands me...
It's a waste of his talent to put someone as gifted as him in Teitan Elementary School.
While shrinking is an undeniable fact, leveraging one's genius can better facilitate investigation and development.
Conan felt like he was about to uncover just the tip of the iceberg of that underground world.
Like Sherlock Holmes...find Professor James Moriarty and defeat him!
All of this... was brought to him by Jiachenggege.
He was also very tired from being relied upon by the Junior Detective League.
He is human too, and he needs to rely on others... Fortunately, Jiachenggege gave him a shoulder to lean on.
After receiving this news, the shadow that had been hanging over him from the organization dissipated considerably.
That overflowing sense of security and peace of mind made Conan's heart race.
When he felt Jia Chen whispering in his ear, his face flushed slightly, and he fidgeted, saying shyly, "Then thank you... for the gift, Brother Jia Chen."
Ai, who was watching the show: "?"
Xiao Lan, who had just come out to ask for help and saw this scene, was speechless.
Jia Chen: "...."
Why are you blushing like a bubble teapot?
