"Senior Shiyu, senior Seiko, it's my turn to entertain you this time!"
Outside Suzuki Jiroyoshi's manor-style mansion, Suzuki Sonoko smiled and greeted Kasumigaoka Shiu and Busujima Saeko who came together, and then greeted Eve and Akahomi who came with them.
"Who is this kid? He's so cute!"
Ling, who was held in Busujima Saeko's arms, also caught Suzuki Sonoko's attention. She squeezed Ling and said with a smile on her baby-fat little face.
Sanba, just wait for me!
A dangerous look flashed in Ling's eyes after her face was pinched, but she still showed a pure and innocent smile and said: "My name is Busushima Rei, and I am the daughter of Saeko's mother!"
"Huh!?"
Suzuki Sonoko was startled and looked at Busujima Saeko with disbelief.
No, we haven't seen each other for only about a month. How can such a big child come from? Still a child with purple hair and amber eyes and a foreign appearance! Saeko-senpai, your efficiency is too high!
Busujima Saeko gently tapped Ling's little head with her chin, and said to Suzuki Sonoko with a wry smile: "Ling is the daughter of my father's overseas friend. They passed away recently, and my father adopted Ling, so now Ling is my Busujima family Ling and I are the closest to each other. She keeps calling me mom and refuses to change her name, so I just let her call me that."
I don’t know if Ling’s parents are still alive, please forgive me for once again “cursing” you!
Busujima Saeko said with guilt.
"Ah, what a poor child!"
Suzuki Sonoko suddenly felt pity for Ling.
"Rei has Saeko's mother, Rei is not pitiful!" Rei's eyes as soft as amber flashed with light, she snuggled into Busujima Saeko's arms and said to Suzuki Sonoko.
"Hmm...why are you so cute and obedient!"
Suzuki Sonoko couldn't help but stretched out her hand and rubbed Ling's head again and again. Ling gritted her teeth and endured, and swore to make this bastard look good!
Suzuki Sonoko originally thought that she was the kind of person who didn't like children. After all, the kid was noisy and naughty and not cute at all. But after seeing Ling, she realized that she was wrong, and she was very wrong. It wasn't that she didn't like children, she It’s just that she doesn’t like naughty and unlovable children. She simply loves a cute, obedient and pitiful child like Ling!
If Busujima Saeko hadn't been holding her, she would have really wanted to hug Rei. This soft little girl would be so comfortable to hold!
"Sonoko, I'm here! Hello, Shiu-senpai, Saeko-senpai!"
At this time, Mao Lilan also came over accompanied by Kudo Shinichi. Unlike Mao Lilan who was smiling, Kudo Shinichi frowned, as if he was thinking about some difficult problem.
"What does the notice letter of 'Kidd' mean..."
Kudo Shinichi murmured.
This morning, Kaitou Kidd sent a second notice letter, which contained a series of riddles written by him. As long as the riddles are deciphered, you can know the time and place of Kaitou Kidd's infiltration. This is his challenge to the detectives. , and he, Kudo Shinichi, has already accepted this challenge!
"Shinichi, it's Shiyu-senpai and the others here. Be careful and stop thinking of any secret codes!"
Mao Lilan couldn't help but feel a little dissatisfied when she saw that Kudo Shinichi didn't express anything at all.
As a childhood sweetheart, once I encounter something related to reasoning, I get stuck in it and can't get out. I am distracted for nine out of ten minutes, and I almost ran a red light on the way here.
"Ah, I'm sorry!"
Kudo Shinichi reacted and said hello to Kasumigaoka Shiu and the others.
"Yuanzi, it's still some time before the banquet starts. Is there something wrong with you calling us here so early?"
Kasumigaoka Shiyu asked Suzuki Sonoko.
The banquet was held at eight o'clock in the evening. It was only four o'clock in the afternoon, which was early for the banquet. However, Suzuki Sonoko sent a message asking them to gather at the banquet location at four o'clock. This made Kasumigaoka Shiu curious about what Suzuki Sonoko had planned. .
"Hehe, after the banquet officially starts, I am the host and may not have that much time to accompany you, so I want to entertain you in advance!"
Suzuki Sonoko said with a smile.
"Is it really that simple?"
Mao Lilan, who is most familiar with Suzuki Sonoko, is a little unconvinced.
Suzuki Sonoko trotted up to Mao Lilan, took one of Mao Lilan's arms and said coquettishly: "Okay Xiaolan, I am still a little selfish, I just want you and senior Shiyu to help me choose what to wear for the banquet. Dress, there will be many wealthy ladies and socialites coming today, I don’t want them to take away all my glory, you are not even willing to help me with this small favor, are you?"
Who are you bluffing? You are the second daughter of the Suzuki family. How could you attend the banquet without a professional stylist! Are you asking Xiaolan and others to help you choose a dress? This was also used to deceive the little girl with purple hair!
Kudo Shinichi was the first to not believe what Suzuki Sonoko said, but what he didn't know was that the purple-haired little girl he was thinking about didn't believe what Suzuki Sonoko said either. On the contrary, Mao Lilan believed it in an instant. She said without hesitation: "Okay Yuanzi, I will definitely help you dress up beautifully! Our Yuanzi is still very beautiful. If you dress up well, you will not lose to anyone else!"
Mao Lilan, who doesn't have so many twists and turns in her heart, believes in her best friend wholeheartedly. Except for things about men, she believes everything Suzuki Sonoko says, well, except for things about men (emphasis added).
Of course, if you listen to the exact opposite, it might be believable. After all, it’s Yuanzi!
After the discussion, Suzuki Sonoko took the girls, Maori Ran and Kasumigaoka Shiu, to her dressing room. As for Kudo Shinichi, he followed halfway, but was kicked away by Suzuki Sonoko in the end.
This loser Dim Sum was not active when he confessed, but at this time he started to act shamelessly. It was so muddy that it couldn’t stick to the wall!
Following Suzuki Sonoko to the locker room, after opening the door and entering, Kasumigaoka Shiu and others immediately said that they had been deceived.
This place is not a dressing room, it's more like a clothing mall!
It's said to be a locker room, but the actual area inside is enough to match a basketball court. All kinds of expensive and gorgeous dresses are hung on separate hangers, and it's almost endless at a glance.
"Come on, Xiaolan, just choose what you like...ah, no, you are helping me choose to see if there is anything suitable for me!"
Suzuki Sonoko said to Mouri Ran, who was dazzled by countless beautiful clothes.
"Yuanzi, you..."
At this time, even Mao Lilan realized that Suzuki Sonoko was not asking her to help choose a dress, but was preparing a dress for her!
When attending a banquet, you must not be careless in dressing up, especially girls. Boys can also be more casual. Once a girl is casual at a banquet, she will be expelled from her "female status" immediately, so most of the people who come to the banquet are dressed up. Came later.
Busujima Saeko is the only daughter of the Busujima family, a famous Japanese swordsman, and her status is not much worse than that of Suzuki Sonoko. She came here wearing an expensive kimono, and Rei, who was holding her in her arms, was wearing a pocket kimono. Shima Saeko's outfit is similar in color and style, so it's a mother-daughter style.
Kasumigaoka Shiha's family was well-off, and her family had already prepared a dress for the banquet. Eve was also dressed up beautifully. After all, Mikado Ryoko was a hidden wealthy woman.
But among the few people, two of them were not dressed up carefully. They just came over in simple school uniforms. They were Chitong and Mao Lilan.
Among them, Akhitomi is actually completely indifferent. She is not the kind of person who likes to dress up. Moreover, she is attending the banquet on behalf of the Akayama family. Being able to attend the banquet hosted by the Suzuki Zaibatsu is already giving face to the Suzuki Zaibatsu. Normally, The Akayama family are too lazy to attend such a banquet. Now that Akahitomi can come, even if they just come casually in school uniforms, it is impossible for the Suzuki Zaibatsu and even all the guests at the banquet to look down on Akahitong, otherwise they will be contemptuous of Kitayama who is behind the Akayama family. Family, and in Japan, no one can despise the Beishan family, and no one can afford this price.
Chitong didn't pay attention to the banquet, and she didn't need to pay attention to the banquet, so she came here casually wearing her school uniform, but Mao Lilan came here in her school uniform because she really didn't have a dress to wear.
His father is a former policeman who resigned, and he is currently a private detective named Mouri Kogoro who specializes in investigating extramarital affairs. His income is very unstable, and his money is sometimes tight and loose. His mother, Princess Eri, is a well-known barrister who runs her own law firm and has an enviable annual income. But because of conflicts with Mouri Kogoro, they are currently separated in the Cold War.
As long as Mao Lilan asks, Fei Yingli will not be stingy with her daughter. It is easy to buy a decent dress for Mao Lilan. However, Mao Lilan has always wanted her separated parents to get back together. If she asks Fei Yingli for it, Money, the macho father Mouri Kogoro must be furious. In this way, the relationship between the two will definitely get worse and worse, so even if the family is financially strapped, Mao Lilan must live a life of digging and digging. Mao Lilan has never asked for a penny from her mother. This time, Mao Lilan also did not intend to make an exception, so she came over wearing only her school uniform.
Maybe in Mao Lilan's opinion, her school uniform is very clean and not dirty at all. Even if she wears her school uniform and enters a senior banquet, she doesn't need to feel ashamed at all.
She is such a pure-minded girl.
However, Mao Lilan has a pure mind, but Suzuki Sonoko will never allow Mao Lilan to be hurt, even if she is hurt mentally!
So Suzuki Sonoko deceived Mao Lilan into the dressing room in the name of helping her choose clothes, where she planned to choose a good-looking dress for Mao Lilan and dress Mao Lilan beautifully so that she could amaze everyone at the banquet in the evening. Let the eyes of those young men in Tokyo's upper class stare out!
Well, by the way, if Kudo Shinichi, the reasoning geek, can be made anxious and confess his love to Xiaolan quickly, then everything will be perfect!
Suzuki Sonoko plans to pass!
After thinking about Suzuki Yuanzi's painstaking efforts, Mao Lilan was amused and moved. She knew that she could not refuse Suzuki Yuanzi's kindness at this time. Her best friend had already spent so much effort to take care of her dignity, could she? Do you want to show any self-esteem drama in front of her? She really couldn't say no at all!
However, Mao Lilan did not go up immediately to choose the dress she liked. Instead, she looked around carefully, planning to choose a dress suitable for Suzuki Sonoko first.
"Yuanzi, what do you think of this outfit?"
Mao Lilan picked out a pink one-piece dress and said to Suzuki Sonoko.
"Uh... not bad..."
Seeing Mao Lilan carefully choose a dress for her, Suzuki Yuanzi felt a little confused. She didn't know if Mao Lilan understood her consciousness, so she said casually.
"Aren't you too satisfied? Then I'll look at other things..."
Mao Lilan continued to choose carefully.
Kasumigaoka Shiyu couldn't stand it any longer. If she hadn't been so angry that she could be considered a genius. She walked up to Suzuki Sonoko and whispered into her ear: "Sonoko, Xiaolan has accepted your kindness, but you are Xiaolan was 'lied' in with the excuse of helping you choose a dress, so of course Xiaolan will help you choose a dress first! When the time comes, you can choose a dress that you think looks good for Xiaolan, so that everything will not go wrong. Is it natural?"
Suzuki Sonoko immediately became energetic, and she said to Kasumigaoka Shiyu with great gratitude: "Senior Shiyu, thank you!"
After saying that, he immediately chased Mao Lilan, who was walking further and further away because of carefully choosing a dress: "Xiaolan, wait for me, let's choose together!"
Kasumigaoka Shiha looked at the back of Suzuki Sonoko who was chasing Maori Ran in a funny way, and said to Busujima Saeko who also showed a faint smile next to her: "What a beautiful friendship... There is such a friendship between girls that understands and cherishes each other. I This is the first time we’ve met! Saeko, we’re going to be like this in the future too!”
"Shiyu, we can!"
Busujima Saeko nodded firmly.
Although they have not known each other for as long as Maori Ran and Suzuki Sonoko, and they do not understand each other as well as they do, Busujima Saeko believes that she will become such a close friend with Kasumigaoka Shiu.
"Come on, Sonoko! What do you think of this dress?"
Mao Lilan wandered through the "forest" of dresses for a long time, and finally found a dress that was very suitable for her.
No, it doesn't seem right to call it a dress. This is a very exquisite Hanfu. It is emerald green in color, soft and elegant, and has an aura that is completely different from other dresses.
Suzuki Sonoko followed Mao Lilan's voice and looked over. When she saw this Hanfu, her eyes lit up, but she quickly remembered something and shook her head and said: "Xiaolan, it's no good. This dress belongs to me, Jiroji." What uncle has prepared for others is just here temporarily. We can choose other dresses at will, but this one...cannot!"
"It's like this...what a pity...it obviously looks beautiful!"
Mao Lilan lamented that she thought this simple and elegant dress would be very beautiful on Suzuki Sonoko.
"It's okay, there are so many beautiful dresses here, let's just keep choosing!"
Suzuki Sonoko took Mao Lilan's hand and said indifferently.
Although Suzuki Sonoko also likes this dress, it belongs to Suzuki Jirokichi. Suzuki Sonoko doesn't dare to move it. It's just a piece of clothing anyway. If you don't let it be moved, don't let it be moved. She, Suzuki Sonoko, doesn't have any rebellious mentality and won't let her. If he insists on moving her, isn't that a bit mean?
While Suzuki Sonoko was taking Mao Lilan to pick out clothes, a woman in military uniform with long ice-blue hair and a dangerous aura appeared in front of the mansion's door.
"Is this here? Classmate Yan Kai is really good at calling people. He doesn't let the teacher have peace on his days off... But I really hope that the possible chaos he mentioned will happen, so that I can... relax and relax!"
The woman in military uniform pushed down the military cap on her head, hiding her face in the shadows, licking her lips, and a cruel smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.
