Ke Xue Lu Ren Wang

The sound pierced through the evening noise and clearly reached everyone's ears.

Sonoko Suzuki, Ran Mouri, and the couple who had been making sarcastic remarks—everyone's movements froze at this moment.

Chizuru Shimizu's mocking smile froze, and her boyfriend next to her forgot to keep his arm around her shoulder. The two of them turned to look at the source of the sound.

The Porsche 718 parked on the roadside resembles a lurking black cheetah, quiet yet exuding a powerful aura.

The driver's side window was completely rolled down, exposing a boy's profile to everyone's view.

Just showing a side profile is enough to freeze the surrounding air.

……

Meanwhile, on Blue Star, the video website PiliPili.

On the screen of the dozen or so episodes of the new anime "Detective Conan," comments were floating by sporadically.

"Poor Sonoko, she got mocked by that green tea classmate again."

"It's almost six o'clock. If this guy named Yuzuru doesn't come soon, Sonoko's going to be in big trouble, isn't she?"

"Conan's expression, hahaha, he looks like he's just watching the show."

Just then, the scene shifted, and a magnetic voice rang out.

"Six o'clock sharp, looks like I'm not too late. Sorry to keep you waiting, Sonoko."

Immediately afterwards, a black Porsche sports car and a breathtakingly handsome profile suddenly appeared in the view of all the spectators.

The comments section disappeared.

A full three seconds of deathly silence.

Then, like a long-accumulated volcano, it erupted instantly!

"Holy shit! Holy shit! Holy shit! Holy shit! Holy shit!"

"Ahhhhh, what a handsome guy!!!"

"Is this a real face? The production team must have gone mad!"

"A beauty overload!!"

"High-energy warning ahead! Non-combat personnel, please evacuate! This is not a drill!"

"Mom, I'm in love! Just now, a second ago!"

The character introduction panel on the right side of the screen pops up in a timely manner.

[Toru Hanyu, male, 18 years old.]

The simple introduction, however, took the frenzy of the comments section to a whole new level.

"What a beautiful name! And he's so handsome! Sonoko, did you save the galaxy in your past life?!"

"I'm sorry, Shinichi Kudo, but I hereby declare that from today onwards, Toru Hanyu is my husband!"

"Even I, a guy, was stunned. This is a real handsome guy, he's on a completely different level from those effeminate guys online!"

The comment section, which was originally rather quiet, saw its number of comments increase dozens of times within just a dozen seconds of Yuzuru's appearance, almost completely covering the entire screen.

……

At the foot of Tokyo Tower.

Yuzuru rested one hand on the steering wheel, calmly watching the group of petrified people outside the car.

The moment he rolled down the car window, a blue virtual interface visible only to him popped up in front of him, accompanied by a crisp notification sound.

[Ding! Congratulations, host, on your first appearance in Detective Conan!]

[Attention Count +1780, Reward: Selectable Ability Trial Card]

Yuzuru remained completely calm; he had clearly noticed the system's notification just now.

As for the self-selected ability experience card? That reward is really... simple and unpretentious.

Immediately afterwards, the barrage of comments flooding the screen also clearly appeared in his field of vision.

"Is he Sonoko's boyfriend?"

"He's so handsome!"

"I'm so envious! What has Sonoko done to deserve such a handsome boyfriend?!"

It turned out to be the case.

Yuzuru understood instantly.

Every time he appears on screen, he is seen by an audience in another world, and this attention is the source of his popularity system's data.

No wonder it gained so much attention as soon as it appeared on screen.

Good looks are indeed the primary driving force.

He pushed open the car door and stepped out.

His height of 1.78 meters gives him an excellent body proportion.

The fitted brown hoodie accentuates the perfect muscle definition, while the black jeans with silver chains add a touch of rebellious style.

He didn't look at anyone, but casually straightened his collar before raising his head.

Those deep eyes swept across the entire room.

Sonoko Suzuki, Ran Mouri, and... that kid with glasses.

It really was them.

Ran Mouri's hair doesn't have those exaggerated, deadly horns like in the anime, but her pure and beautiful face is still top-notch.

Sonoko Suzuki's good looks were largely obscured by her headband, but she does have a good foundation.

As for that brat, of course he knew him... Shinichi Kudo, no, he should be called Conan Edogawa now.

Finally, Toru Hanyu's gaze returned to Sonoko Suzuki.

At this moment, Sonoko Suzuki's mouth was agape, and her big eyes were filled with disbelief.

Ishihara Nami did show her a photo of Toru Hanyu, but it was just a regular ID photo of him wearing a school uniform!

The handsome man in the photo and the real person in front of her, who was dressed up and was more handsome than she had ever imagined, were two completely different things!

Not only her, Ran Mouri was also stunned.

She had seen Shinichi Kudo and many other handsome guys in school, but none of them could match the boy in front of her, who exuded an irresistible and powerful attraction simply by standing there.

Meanwhile, on the other side, Shimizu Chizuru and her boyfriend looked quite grim.

Especially for Chizuru Shimizu, looking at Toru Hanyu's impeccable face and then at her boyfriend beside her, who, although fashionable, was completely outshone, a mix of jealousy and embarrassment welled up in her heart, making her nails almost dig into her flesh.

She just couldn't understand where Sonoko Suzuki, this unwanted infatuated girl, had found such a handsome guy!

In the dead silence, Toru Hanyu strode over unhurriedly.

He walked past the stunned Chizuru Shimizu and her boyfriend, and went straight to Sonoko Suzuki.

Sonoko instinctively took a half step back, her heart pounding wildly, her palms sweating with nervousness.

What...what is he going to do?

Yuzuru stopped in his tracks, lowered his head slightly, and gazed at her with his deep eyes.

He didn't say anything, but simply reached out and naturally tidied a strand of hair that had been ruffled by the wind.

His fingertips accidentally touched her forehead, and the warm touch made Sonoko Suzuki tremble all over, her cheeks instantly turning bright red.

After making this gesture, Yuzuru finally spoke, his voice still deep and pleasant, yet carrying a hint of barely perceptible doting and reproach.

"Why aren't you replying to my messages? I thought you'd been kidnapped by bad guys."

For a moment, Sonoko Suzuki's face turned bright red, her mind went blank, as if a ton of steam had nowhere to go and was about to burst out from the top of her head.

Before Sonoko could react, Toru Hanyu naturally put his arm around her waist.

"Sonoko, calm down! Calm down! He's just a handsome guy~!"

The warm touch on her waist made Sonoko Suzuki tense up, and she didn't know what to do for a moment.
