Infinite Kings Advent

Vol 20 Chapter 228: Pie in the sky

Mouri Kogoro said helplessly: "Who are these two?"

Kikuemon said, "They are my apprentices, let me introduce them."

He looked at the man in the green sweater and said, "This is Yoshihiko Arita whose craftsmanship has improved rapidly recently, and his skills have become more and more pure."

Yoshihiko Arita nodded and greeted.

Kikuemon continued, "Next to this is Seto Ryuichi, whose works have been declining recently, almost stopped, and have not improved at all."

His evaluation of his students was very direct. Takaichi Seto scratched his head and said, "Actually, I was only temporarily disappointed."

Yoshihiko Arita poked his arm and said with a smile: "It's not because you blindly imitated the relationship of the master."

"Not wordy." Seto Takashi said with a smile.

Ms. Tsuchiya said, "Yes, you have to put more fuel, Seto, everyone thinks that you are the apprentice who can inherit the sixth generation of Kikuemon. You can't be discouraged."

"The sixth generation?" Mouri Kogoro asked.

Kikuemon said: "In fact, Kikuemon is the name passed down by our master for generations, and I am the fifth generation."

"Stop talking about it." Yoshihiko Arita leaned over and said, "We just want to know one thing now, Mr. Mori, which pottery would you choose."

Kikuemon waved his hand, "Okay, what are you anxious about, I haven't said this yet."

Kogoro Mouri asked, "Excuse me, what's the matter?"

Kikuemon said, "To be honest, I want to be able to give you a piece of work. Actually, I can send it by myself, but in the end I decided that you should come here to make a choice."

He pointed to the cabinet where the pottery was visited in the room and said, "Well, hurry up and choose, you can choose any thing in this room."

"This..." Maori Kogoro was surprised. After all, he is a potter at the national treasure level. Every pottery is invaluable, and he is a little embarrassed because he has no merit.

"This...is it really possible?"

Ms. Tsuchiya smiled and said, "No matter which one you choose, each one is worth millions of dollars."

"Millions..." Mouri Kogoro was about to faint. He didn't expect this kind of good thing in the world, and the pie slammed on his head firmly.

Mao Lilan leaned into his ear and whispered, "I said, Dad, it's not so good. You have to be polite."

"I know."

Kogoro Mouri looked at the empty teacup, held it in his hand, and said with a smile, "I think I can choose any one. This is the teacup, okay."

Kikuemon's neck shrank and was surprised. The others also opened their mouths wide enough to swallow an egg, and looked at Mori Kogoro incredulously.

The atmosphere in the room instantly solidified. Looking at the incomprehensible expressions of everyone, Kogoro Mouri looked around blankly, not understanding what was going on.

Kikuemon sighed slightly, and slowly said, "A famous detective is a famous detective. He really has a unique vision. It seems that I have won the bet."

"Bet?" Mouri Kogoro asked puzzled.

Kikuemon said: "I made a bet with some of my apprentices. Let's guess which one you would choose. As I had judged, you chose the best work here."

He looked at the teacup in Kogoro Moori's hands, "This teacup is a work praised by insiders as a world-famous implement."

Mouri Kogoro was a little dazed. He wanted to be polite and picked up the teacup on the table, but he didn't expect to hit the best one by mistake.

Xie Chen smiled helplessly, it was really the blind cat that met the dead mouse.

Kikuemon smiled and said, "I didn't mean to give it to anyone, but you can be an exception."

"But, Dad..." Tsuchiya Msoko hesitated, trying to dissuade Kikuemon.

But Kikuemon stopped the topic and looked at her and said, "That's right, I am publishing a new Feng Shui issue this time. To be honest, I also want Mr. Mori to see it and help me get it. ."

Tsuchiya Masuko had to stand up, "Yes, I'm going now." After that, she gently shook her head and walked out slowly, her footsteps looking a little heavy.

After she left, Kikuemon asked her two students, "Strange, why didn't I see Otani today."

Yoshihiko Arita said, "He is at the Huoqiu now."

"That's just right." Kikuemon stood up. "Mr. Mori, let's go to the Huojiao."

Mouri Kogoro nodded, and Mouriran thought for a long time, but finally couldn't help asking: "Excuse me... how much is this teacup worth?"

"Well." Kikuemon touched his chin and thought for a while and said: "If you want to give it a price, I think it should be worth at least 10 million."

Maori Kogoro was shocked that a sip of tea spurted out, and the hand holding the teacup trembled, "Ten million..."

Kikuemon smiled and walked out with his hands behind his back.

Seto Takashi smiled and said, "Actually, you knew it a long time ago, right? We wouldn't bet with Master if we knew it."

Mao Lilan sat there and didn't get over for a long time. She looked at Xie Chen and muttered, "He said it was worth ten million..."

Xie Chen curled the corners of his mouth, it was a pie from the sky, and it happened to fall into the mouth of Kogoro Mouri.

Mouri Kogoro was holding the teacup in both hands, his body trembling, the teacup crumbling in his hands, "I would rather ask for ten million banknotes than this teacup."

Afterwards, they came to the fire cellar, worthy of being a national treasure-level potter. The fire cellar was very spacious and the huge stove looked very grand.

"Otani, how is the situation now." Kikuemon asked the squinted man who was filling the living stove with firewood.

Xun Otani turned her head and said timidly: "You can cook the sukiyaki before night."

Xie Chen walked to the pile of black fragments placed by the stove and asked, "What are these fragments?"

Arita Yoshihiko said, "That is the fragment of our ceramics that was broken by Mrs. Tsuchiya."

Kogoro Mouri said, "You mean she broke these ceramics?"

Seto Takashi nodded, "Don't look at Mrs. Tsuchiya's appearance, she is very eye-sighted, so if our works fail her standards, Master will not be able to like it."..
