Conan: Science Cartoonist Kudo Yuji

"Shinichi? Is your husband here?"

Hearing Xiaolan seem to say the name of an old friend, Sonoko hurriedly looked around, but did not see Kudo Shinichi, so he patted Xiaolan on the face.

"Are you confused?"

Raising her eyebrows, the eldest lady covered her mouth, as if she had seen through everything.

"Oh, are you imagining the engagement ceremony between you and Shinichi? Don't worry, that guy may be stupid, but he will definitely try his best to do this kind of thing."

"I hope so..."

When her eyes fell on Conan, Xiaolan also noticed that his brows were furrowed, as if he was troubled by something.

"It's a pity. Uncle and the others won't be able to come back until tomorrow. I heard that they finally bought the plane tickets."

"Well, after all, it's not easy to buy air tickets to Japan during this period. Mom said they would go to the airport to draw lots every day, and then wait for the winning numbers in the evening."

"Buying by lottery is one of the cruelest things in the world."

Yuji suddenly intervened in the conversation between the girls while pushing a wheelchair: "But I haven't seen my uncle for a long time. I really miss him."

I don’t know if the relationship between the couple will improve after living together for these two months.

"It stands to reason that if a couple who have been separated for ten years are suddenly forced to live together, they may become violent and get out of hand."

Yuji pinched his chin and looked at Xiaolan helplessly: "Sister Xiaolan, maybe your Maori family will have a new member. If you don't want your parents to pay less attention to you and feel uncomfortable, you'd better marry her as soon as possible."

"Then I would like to ask, Mr. Kudo, whose wife do you think I should be?"

Grasping the boy's ears, Xiaolan's mouth moved slightly, her head rising with anger. Yuji read the lips and understood that Xiaolan was saying, "I haven't settled the previous score with you yet."

[Why are these two people so weird? 】

"Oh, Miss Kinoshita is out. It's time for the doctor to hand over the ring."

Patting the wheelchair, Xiaolan pushed Yuji, and the three of them also went to where the crowd gathered. Seeing Ms. Kinoshita dragging her long skirt walking towards the center from the gate, Dr. Agasa sweated on his head as he was pushed out by everyone.

"Is the doctor really too nervous?"

Holding the wolfberry and chewing it, Yuer looked around for Hiroki who gave him the ring: "Strange, where is the little ghost man?"

"There should be some surprises, such as holding two dogs and letting the dogs bring the ring box in their mouths. Don't children like to play more?"

Xiaolan, like everyone present, looked at the door expecting Hiroki to give him the ring. The young man nodded in agreement when he heard the words in his ears, and also waited and ate.

He felt a sharp pain at the root of his tooth, paused, and spit out half a tooth and a diamond ring from his mouth.

Blood quickly flowed from the boy's mouth, dripping along the collar of the suit and onto the white shirt. Yuji, who was originally only wearing a pink suit jacket, now even had a little pink on his shirt.

"Xiaoran." Yuji covered his mouth, handed over the ring and motioned for Xiaolan to give it to Dr. Agasa, and then glared at Hiroki who walked over in embarrassment.

"Brother, this..."

Hiroki's hands were still holding Shinpachi and Yujiro. Probably seeing their old master, the two dogs eagerly jumped on Yuji, and one dog licked Yuji's chin.

"Did you do it on purpose or on purpose?"

Feeling that his words were leaking a little, the anxious-looking young man pinched his teeth and mentally urged the doctor who was grinding in the middle to hurry up so that he could go to the dental hospital for treatment.

"It was accidental. I accidentally fell in when I was peeking at the ring."

Hiroki puffed up his chest, as if he wasn't the one who knocked out half of the boy's teeth: "Doctor, too. If you buy a ring so small, wouldn't it be easier to lose it if you buy it bigger?"

"Cut the nonsense!"

After kicking this kid, Yuji looked at his teeth distressedly: "I tell you, you paid for all the money I paid for seeing the doctor."

"No problem, I can barely afford a tooth filling..." Hiroki didn't finish his sentence because he saw his brother wagging his index finger and then lightly tapping his mouth.

"To tell you the truth, I've always wanted to turn this thing into gold, but I just never had the chance."

"Gold-plated?"

"Pure gold."

Noticing that Hiroki's face suddenly turned pale, Yuji breathed a sigh of relief. Of course the gold teeth were a joke, otherwise the disguise would have been in vain.

"Eh? What are you doing?"

Halfway through petting the dog, the boy suddenly noticed that Hiroki took out his tablet and walked towards the corner.

"I... sell an account."

Normally, the engagement ceremony should end here. After all, it is not a wedding. After everyone gets together lively and chats, they have to eat.

There were only some snacks and fruits in the banquet hall, and few people who came to the banquet could not afford to eat these. Except for the children who dragged Conan around to try them, most of the guests had already left one after another.

"Xiaolan, let's go back too. Aren't you going to attend the wedding of the eldest lady of the White Bird Group tomorrow?"

Sonoko looked at her best friend: "Everything is going well today, I just want to regret that Shinichi didn't come."

"He's always busy, I'm used to it." Xiaolan saw Conan walking towards the Kudo couple after saying goodbye to the children, and simply nodded.

"Let's go."

After escorting all the guests away, the Kudo family also left. However, because the Kudo family was rented out to Subaru Okiya and his wife, and Dr. Agasa's house was not convenient tonight, Conan and the Kudo family had no choice but to stay at Yuji's house.

"That kid's teeth were chipped, he really deserved it."

As soon as he entered the house, he mocked Yuuji. Conan suddenly felt three pairs of emotionless eyes staring at him, and then he realized that he was the heartthrob of the current mistresses of the Kudo family.

"Damn it, I picked it up, right?"

Besides, forget about Yuzuki and Kaori, why is my mother so partial to Yuji? They are both sons obviously. Sitting on the sofa, Conan was unhappy.

"You must be wondering why Yukiko is so partial to her younger brother."

Kudo Yusaku still looked like an old fox. He took out the black tea that Yuji had occupied in his study from Yuji's tea cabinet, brewed a pot and put it on the coffee table.

"Yuji was so weak when he was first born, and later developed psychological problems. Of course the mother will put more energy and love into him."

"What about you, dad?"

Conan took off his glasses and kept pretending to be Conan. He almost forgot his true identity.

"Why do you never favor him but me?"

"Mom is partial to him, and of course I am partial to you, but we both love you equally."

Kudo Yusaku saw the boss' eyes turning red, pushed up his glasses and said, "But I guess I won't be partial to you in the future."

"Eh?! Why!"

Jumping up suddenly, unaware of the appearance of the third son of the Kudo family, Conan rolled on the ground as if his mind had degenerated. He rolled to his father's feet before looking up at him.

After finding Shinichi so cute, Kudo Yusaku also became interested in playing with his son.

"If you want to say why..."

He pushed up his glasses and said in a matter-of-fact tone: "Aren't you going to marry into the Maori family?" (End of Chapter)
