"Dad, come in and have a look too!"

Ran Mouri placed the two cardboard boxes at the door and waved to her elderly father outside the iron gate with a smile.

"I... never mind, I suddenly remembered I have something to do, let's talk about it next time."

Kogoro Mouri instinctively wanted to agree, but suddenly stopped in his tracks.

He made up a random excuse, hurriedly got into the car, and left.

"Independence..."

As the elderly father gripped the steering wheel and drove away, he let out a soft sigh.

"Dad looks very busy."

Ran Mouri didn't notice anything unusual about her father; instead, she was genuinely happy that he was focused on his work.

"We need to work harder too, Xiao Luo!"

"oh----"

Luo Tian raised his arm and shouted, echoing the girl's cry, then revealed a puzzled expression.

"Sister Xiaolan, what should we do to cheer ourselves on?"

"Of course, it's time for a thorough cleaning of the new house!"

Standing in front of the entrance, Ran Mouri became excited and prepared to tidy up.

However, when she entered the living room, she found that the room was almost spotless, and the floor was so shiny that it reflected people's images.

Since they were moving, Luo Tian had already hired a professional housekeeping company to clean the villa.

After all, one of the original intentions of moving out was to make things easier for the young woman and free her from the troubles of housework.

Otherwise, cleaning this three-story villa with a small attic would be much more tiring than cleaning the Mori family's house.

Ran Mouri, feeling a bit awkward with no outlet for her energy, had no choice but to start unpacking her luggage.

But as mentioned before, the two of them didn't have much luggage, so it only took a little over an hour to get the new room ready.

The girl chose a large bedroom on the second floor, the most eye-catching thing in which was a large bed big enough for three people to lie down side by side.

In her opinion, there was more than enough room for her and the little boy to sleep on it!

"Xiao Luo! Quickly take me to see the other rooms!"

"No problem, Sister Xiaolan, you should be mentally prepared!"

"Mental preparation?"

Ran Mouri hadn't quite grasped it yet; why did she need to be mentally prepared just to tour a room?

But when she actually took a walk around the villa, she realized that there were just too many surprises in store!

Putting everything else aside, the large room on the first floor that had been specially converted into a small dojo alone excited her.

This means she can practice karate to her heart's content at home without having to go to school on her days off!

In addition, the front garden, the hidden basement, the smart home appliances... all sorts of novel experiences kept her busy.

What she found most incredible was the sunroom in the backyard, connected to the first floor by a corridor.

"Xiao Luo, are you sure this is a hot spring?"

Even after listening to the little boy's explanation, Ran Mouri still found it hard to believe.

That's a hot spring!

Hot springs are typically rare in large cities.

Even if they exist, they are usually converted into hotels or other similar establishments. How could a private residence possibly have a hot spring?

She wasn't even sure if there were any hot springs in the entire Beika Town!

But when she opened the glass door, she discovered that there was indeed a hot spring inside the misty sunroom.

The hot spring pool is as big as a swimming pool, and bubbles are constantly rising from the bottom, showing that the hot spring water is inexhaustible.

This sunroom is almost entirely made of glass, and it's the kind of extremely sturdy, one-way transparent glass.

If I could soak in a hot spring at night and look up at the starry sky... Ran Mouri is already looking forward to it.

"Xiao Luo, tell me honestly, how much is the rent here?"

By the end, after touring the rooftop attic, Ran Mouri felt not only surprise but also shock.

"It's really cheap! Sonoko-nee rented it to me for a very low price!"

Luo Tian made a solemn promise and tried to change the subject.

"It's lunchtime already, and I'm starving! Sister Xiaolan, hurry up and cook! Oh, and the ingredients are already prepared in the fridge!"

"Really? Okay then."

Despite still having some doubts, the girl temporarily put them aside because the little boy was hungry.

"Wait a minute, I'm changing my clothes..."

Ran Mouri was about to change into her pajamas before cooking when she suddenly noticed something at the bottom of a cardboard box next to her.

"what is this?"

It was a gift box, but the girl didn't remember putting it in there.

"Could this be a gift from your uncle?"

Crouching down beside the girl, Luo Tian gently reminded her.

He remembered that when he drove over, Kogoro Mouri stopped briefly along the way, got out of the car, and bought something.

Later, while moving the cardboard boxes, I took the opportunity to stuff the items inside.

"Dad?"

Blinking, the girl carefully opened the gift box and found that it contained a laptop.

Judging from the brand and appearance alone, it seems to be quite expensive.

"Hey, there's a note here, Sister Xiaolan, look!"

Luo Tian pulled a slip of paper from the box and handed it to the girl.

Ran Mouri took the note, and when she saw the handwriting on it, she was stunned for a moment.

"A housewarming gift for my daughter."

These two short sentences seem to contain a thousand words from an old father.

 "Ah—I've finally finished my homework!"

In the spacious living room, Ran Mouri closed her book and tossed it casually onto the coffee table. She stretched lazily and then leaned back.

The bright sunlight outside streamed into the living room through the floor-to-ceiling windows, illuminating the girl's curvaceous figure and bringing a sense of warmth.

Turning my head to look outside, a fragrant garden is refreshing, and what's even more precious is that there are no tall buildings nearby to block the view.

This is a rare sight in a bustling downtown area filled with skyscrapers!

Two days have passed since Ran Mouri moved into her new home, and she has had a very fulfilling two days.

Decorate your room and kitchen to your liking, tend your garden, and familiarize yourself with the surrounding area, especially the shopping street where you can buy everyday items and groceries!

Not only that, but there's also the learning progress she missed due to the karate club training camp waiting for her!

Fortunately, the convenience brought by advanced technology means she doesn't need to go to her classmates or school to find her teachers.

The moving gift from her elderly father perfectly solved her worries.

Along with the other members of the Karate 28 Club, she took video lessons with the teacher via computer, then caught up on her study notes from the past few days and completed her homework.

"Honestly, why do we have to do extra homework when it's for the school's honor?"

Even Ran Mouri, a model student, couldn't help but complain at this moment.

"You're right, aren't you, Xiao Luo?"

Looking at the cute little boy sitting on the sofa, the girl reached out her hand.

"Yes! Sister Xiaolan is right!"

After putting down his phone and ending his two-way chat with Attorney Fei and Miss Suzuki, Luo Tian gave her an approving look.

He hates situations where students are made to pay for problems caused by various other reasons.

For example, time off in lieu of leave! Time off in lieu of leave! Time off in lieu of leave!

With two small hands grasping the girl's soft hands, Luo Tian exerted a little force and pulled her up.

Due to inertia, Ran Mouri's upper body suddenly leaned forward and eventually collapsed onto the sofa.

To be more precise, she lay on the little boy's lap.

"Hey, Xiao Luo, how about we go shopping this afternoon?"

The girl snuggled against the little boy, enjoying his unique milky scent, her eyes filled with hope.

Perhaps because she no longer has to worry about her elderly father and has more free time, she has found it hard to stay still lately.

Having just finished her homework and with plenty of time to spare, she decided to go for a stroll.

The new bedroom was too big, and she spent two days decorating it but still couldn't decide what to do, feeling that something was missing.

"Okay! But Sister Xiaolan, you can't just browse without buying anything this time!"

Having nothing to do, Luo Tian naturally wouldn't refuse, but he did offer a reminder.

The girl said the same thing these past two days, but every time she went out for a stroll, she bought almost nothing.

"I just haven't decided what to buy yet!"

Ran Mouri rubbed her legs against the little boy's legs again, and then shouted in protest.

After she stopped being the housekeeper, her mindset changed significantly, and she often showed a childlike side.

However, she was facing a real child.

At least that's how it looks from the outside!

There's a reason why this scene might seem a bit strange to outsiders.

After all, the villa is big, but only two people live there at the moment. Ran Mouri really needs to hold the little boy to fall asleep at night.

In other words, the girl's favorability rating has increased rapidly in the past two days!

Sometimes Luo Tian wondered how much affection the girl had for him.

Unfortunately, the dog system doesn't have this function, which is a pity. It can only remain passive and cannot act too hastily.

Of course, there is good news too; at least that big black rat is definitely out of the running.

[The Great Prophecy: Using Newton's Seventh Law and Einstein's Theory of Mutant Relativity, you can know someone's fate with just one glance (with a certain probability of failure)!]

What kind of prophetic magic is this?! Why not just say it's fortune telling or face reading?!

And then there's this bizarre probability of success. Luo Tian has tried many times in the past two days, and he's only successful about once in ten attempts.

Even if you succeed, at most you can tell whether the other party will be lucky or unlucky, which is extremely useless!

Besides, he already has the advantage of foresight, so this trash skill is better left unused!

Thinking this, before leaving, he cast a [Great Prophecy] spell on himself and the girl again.

At Professor Agasa's house, Conan is opening a pile of letters in front of him.

"Damn it! There wasn't a single letter for me! Has everyone forgotten about me?"

The big black rat was a little troubled. Since he shrank, his daily life had become different from before.

First, he worked hard under the supervision of the black men, then he recuperated in the United States, and after returning, he waited to move to the Maori family.
