Ke Xue: I was raised by them in Mihua.

……

Luo Tian hailed a taxi with an air of arrogance, and after stating his destination, he focused his attention on his phone.

"I wonder how things are going?"

He had been brewing a plan ever since he was targeted by the plagiarism freak yesterday.

As the saying goes, "Whom the gods would destroy, they first make mad," and the arrogant behavior of this plagiarist is a manifestation of his madness.

Of course, all of this was predicated on his use of the "Intelligence Reduction Card," which lowered the intelligence of the plagiarism monster.

Otherwise, the initial step of stealing the design drafts from the luxury bus would probably have been impossible to carry out.

After all, those who have learned from past mistakes in plagiarism will certainly be more cautious in similar actions.

After being mentally impaired, the plagiarism freak has overlooked many things from yesterday until now.

For example, the surveillance cameras on the luxury bus, the audio recordings on Luo Tianliang's phone, the video recordings of passersby arguing in front of the station... even the handwriting on the concept art!

What better way to deal with a plagiarism freak than to ruin her reputation?

Moreover, at Luo Tian's suggestion, Sonoko Suzuki also had her own media relations team subtly influence the situation.

It can be said that public opinion has now gained overwhelming momentum; as long as a plagiarist dares to show his face, he will be crushed immediately!

At the same time, this buzz will also help generate hype for the Doraemon series; free publicity is always a good thing!

However, Luo Tian could leave the rest to the wealthy Sonoko Suzuki; he didn't need to lift a finger himself.

Now he's going to take the law exam, which is about living with Attorney Fei!

"Hiss—I guess I should buy lunch first!"

……

"Finally! It's finally finished!"

Inside the upscale apartment, Chikako Ikeda murmured to herself in a hoarse voice.

Having stayed up all night, she looked dazed, with dark circles under her eyes and bloodshot eyes. Her hair was disheveled, and she looked like a gambler who had squandered all her wealth and was trying to make one last desperate gamble.

If Hiroki Kakutani saw this, he would probably wake up from his sycophantic state on the spot.

Chikako Ikeda was completely unconcerned about her current state.

She looked at a document on the computer screen and gulped down a cup of coffee that had gone completely cold.

Despite being extremely exhausted, she forced herself to stay awake.

With success and fame within reach, and wealth and glory at her fingertips, how could she sleep soundly if she couldn't publish her work and put her name on it?!

Even if I faint, I'm afraid I'll be plagued by nightmares!

She can only sleep soundly when she sees her own work receive a lot of positive reviews and generate a lot of buzz!

"Come on, let me enjoy your praise!"

Upon logging into her Facebook account, Chikako Ikeda subconsciously ignored the 99 messages already received, as well as the various mentions from people who were either strangers or acquaintances.

Under the influence of the "Intelligence-Degrading Card," her limited intelligence was insufficient to make her consider so many things.

At this moment, all she could think about was the anticipation of fame and the fantasy of a luxurious life.

With trembling fingers, I pressed the Enter key. After a brief pause, the upload success icon appeared on the screen.

As a screenwriter with some fame in the entertainment industry, Chikako Ikeda has hundreds of thousands of fans, though not a large number.

Many of these works were stolen from "Blue Kingdom," which was the first time she plagiarized, and she became a fan during that period.

Before long, comments appeared under the new post.

With her eyes wide and red, she was hoping to garner praise from her fans, but the result was far beyond her expectations.

"Hahaha! I've been waiting all night, and they're finally here!"

"Just as everyone guessed!"

"I told you long ago, her first work was plagiarized, otherwise why would so many of her later works have flopped!"

"How shameless! They still posted this despite such a huge controversy!"

The barrage of negative reviews startled Chikako Ikeda, causing her to drop her coffee cup in a panic.

"What's going on? Why is this happening?"

Holding the monitor, she was completely bewildered by the situation.

Praise? How can there be so many negative comments? Even if there are haters, there are just too many! It's like... like we've been targeted all along!

"Trolls! Someone must have hired trolls to smear me! Proof! I must prove myself!"

Chikako Ikeda, whose intelligence is questionable, didn't immediately realize that her plagiarism had been exposed, but rather that someone was trying to smear her.

In a moment of desperation, she took a picture of the stolen design draft and posted it online.

The result is obvious.

"Wow, she actually posted what she stole online. Is this considered self-exposure?"

"What stealing? It's clearly robbery! Didn't you see the video? Even a child stood up for what was right!"

"I compared the handwriting of this concept art with her previous works, and you know what? It's not exactly the same, but it's completely unrelated!"

"Of course! Can an adult's handwriting be the same as a child's?! Let alone the handwriting of a despicable plagiarist and a cute little boy with a wildly imaginative mind!"

The overwhelming comments left Chikako Ikeda stunned in front of her computer. She tried to find a few that supported her amidst the sea of ​​negative reviews.

Unfortunately, no matter how hard she tries to find something that doesn't exist, she won't find it.

"Why...me..."

Just then, the "Intelligence-Degrading Card," which lasted for one day, also successfully completed its mission.

As if a string in her mind had been reconnected, Chikako Ikeda finally realized what she had done.

Her expression changed drastically, turning red with anger, green with fear, and finally returning to a deathly pale.

That's it! That was the last thought in her mind before she fainted.

Chapter 59 A Chocolate-Flavored Kiss (Fourth Update)

　"This is the house key. Please keep it safe and don't lose it..."

"This is your allowance. Try not to use your phone or the money in your bank account if you don't have to..."

"This is a buzzer alarm. Pull it open if you encounter a bad guy..."

"This is……"

In the taxi, Luo Tian imagined many scenarios of meeting Attorney Fei again.

But no matter which one it is, it doesn't fit the current situation.

It seems this lawyer really thinks he's a child?!

She's the type who doesn't know anything and can get lost even if she goes out!

Even though it's normal for teenage girls to feel safe going out and wandering around on their own when they're at school.

Although he felt a little annoyed, he knew that she was concerned about him, so Luo Tian agreed to all of Fei Dashang's instructions.

Moreover, he could vaguely sense that the other person seemed to be venting some of the responsibilities she had failed to fulfill as a mother in the past.

"That's all for now. You must be hungry. I'll go cook."

As noon approached, Eri had no choice but to stop her rambling and prepare to show off her culinary skills to the little boy.

It's rare for her to have a day off, so she's been tidying up the guest rooms, cleaning the house, and buying a lot of groceries.

"It's not necessary!"

Luo Tian was startled and quickly stopped Attorney Fei.

Just kidding! He doesn't want to spend the next few days in bed!

"I had already bought lunch when I arrived, so Sister Fei doesn't have to work so hard!"

Luo Tian opened the bag like he was showing off a treasure, took out two deluxe bento boxes, and handed one of them over.

"Oh, that's fine then. I'll show you my cooking skills tonight!"

Without thinking much, Eri Kisaki sat down next to the little boy.

Her beautiful legs, encased in brown stockings, were crossed over her seat on the sofa. She was about to open the bento box when she suddenly noticed something that looked like a gold coin on it.

"This is?"

"This is chocolate! It's delicious!"

Luo Tian grinned and gave a thumbs up.

"The most delicious chocolate in the world"—that's what the system described it as, but besides being delicious, he really couldn't find any other use for it.

Anyway, there were still a few pieces left, and since Attorney Fei also liked chocolate, he took one out.

"Xiao Luo is so thoughtful."

Eri affectionately ruffled the little boy's hair, then unwrapped the chocolate and popped the coin-sized piece into her mouth.

Her rosy lips pursed slightly, and as the chocolate melted on her tongue, her beautiful eyes gradually brightened.

tasty!

That was the first thought that came to her mind!

As a chocolate lover with plenty of money, Eri Kisaki has tasted many chocolates from all over the world.

But even her favorite chiba chocolate paled in comparison to the one she was eating right now.

Sweetness, happiness, comfort... all sorts of positive emotions filled my heart, and the negative emotions that had accumulated at work during this period instantly dissipated.

As she relaxed, she unconsciously let out a groan, but immediately covered her mouth and cautiously looked at the little boy.

"How is it? It's delicious, isn't it!"

Luo Tian acted as if he were incredibly awesome, seemingly completely unaware of the fleeting, subtle sound he had just heard.

"It's delicious! Thank you, Xiao Luo!"

A hint of relief flashed in her eyes as Eri Kisaki bent down and gave the little boy a light peck on the cheek.

They touched and then parted as if nothing had happened, but Luo Tian caught a whiff of a faint aroma mixed with the fragrance of chocolate.

"What's wrong?"

Seeing the little boy staring blankly at her, Eri Kisaki blushed slightly but still pretended to be calm and asked.

In that instant, filled with immense happiness, she subconsciously made that move.

They even forgot that the cute little boy in front of them was actually a teenager about the same age as their daughter.

"Sister Fei, would you like more?"

Luo Tian didn't say much, but simply took out another piece of chocolate and handed it over.

He felt that this "world's most delicious chocolate" had other effects as well.

After all, Ran Mouri and Sonoko Suzuki seemed to act strangely after eating it, and Attorney Kisaki also acted strangely after eating it.

So he wanted to do another experiment.

Unfortunately, Eri Kisaki simply placed the chocolate on the coffee table after receiving it.

"Let's eat first. You can't just eat snacks for lunch, Xiao Luo, remember that!"

·· Requesting flowers ····

She first opened the little boy's lunchbox, and then opened her own.

The two bento boxes were divided into four boxes and placed together. The eight dishes were quite luxurious, and because the bento boxes were not made of cheap cardboard, the food was still steaming hot.

Luo Tian, ​​who hadn't eaten a proper breakfast, looked at the delicious food in front of him, and his stomach growled impatiently.

However, this appetite was almost shattered by a single sentence from Attorney Fei.

"Although it looks good, it's still not quite up to par with my cooking skills."

With a smile, Eri Kisaki placed a piece of fried shrimp on the little boy's rice.
