Naturally, one should dress up nicely for a banquet-style press conference.
Lin Che himself didn't care, but Curaçao insisted on giving him a good tidying up.
The GTR, with its distinctive and flamboyant design, has attracted a lot of attention.
Flash focus.
Lin Che glanced at the red carpet and led Curaçao over in a generous manner.
Identity is given by myself when I go out.
His image in Curaçao was good enough that the rest of the people didn't see anything wrong with it and just thought of him as an outstanding young entrepreneur.
In comparison, Curaçao was more reserved.
She appeared on camera with her real face today. What if the organization sees this?
Curaçao even had a strange feeling of "being caught dating by her parents".
The only thing she could console herself with was this: since Mr. Lin dared to do this, he must be confident.
The two entered the venue quickly.
He had barely taken two steps inside when he was arrested on the spot by Kogoro Mouri.
"Mr. Lin, you've come too." The bumbling detective still looked quite handsome after dressing up carefully.
He was accompanied by the Junior Detective League and other regular cast members from the theatrical version.
The three children were overjoyed by Curaçao's arrival and praised her as looking absolutely stunning today.
Lin Che suddenly reached out his hand.
After a brief hesitation, Kogoro Mouri shook hands with Lin Che.
With just that one word, the bumbling detective understood, but everyone kept it to themselves.
However, from this moment on, he had to be on his guard and deal with Lin Che properly.
Sonoko Suzuki couldn't stop thinking about Lin Che's good looks. Even though she was much more restrained than before, she still couldn't help but talk to Lin Che.
Ai Haibara really didn't want to say a word right now. Lin Che and Curaçao were such a perfect match for her, she even started to ship them a little.
envious.
After envy comes loneliness and regret.
The temporary antidote has been proven to be fine, so she can try taking one.
But what should you do after eating it?
Did she pull Lin Che aside and confess her feelings?
Or are you going to take it a step further and force him to abdicate?
What has she become?!
Conan has even more complicated feelings than Ai Haibara.
Ke was now unable to get a word in edgewise, and Ran Mouri couldn't care less about him; she had to keep an eye on Kogoro Mouri to prevent him from getting too drunk.
Come to think of it, I don't know if the muddle-headed detective was too confident or just naturally careless. He was clearly on high alert with Lin Che just now, but he immediately started drinking.
"Mr. Lin, will anything unexpected happen today?" After interacting with the three little ones, Curaçao returned to Lin Che's side.
She was still quite worried that the organization would find out about her presence through the media.
Lin Che shook his head, "Don't worry, nothing will happen. Hurry up and eat, these are all free."
Curaçao: "......"
Mr. Lin clearly has plenty of money, so why does he always like to freeload?
Chapter 158 I said he didn't say it was you, right?
Curaçao thought to himself, "I'm complaining."
Lin Che has already embarked on a food-hunting journey with food critic Yuan Tai.
Although the chubby boy is prone to causing trouble, he is quite an authority when it comes to food and is very trustworthy.
The two, one big and one small, were busy cooking, while Kogoro Mori was busy drinking.
The remaining people couldn't help but turn their attention to the children who were receiving game experience badges.
Mitsuhiko and the others were very envious.
Although the Ayumi family is considered prolific, it pales in comparison to the children here.
"You want that badge?" Sonoko Suzuki looked down at her chest. "The Suzuki Group also funded the research and development. The staff gave me one when I came here today."
She took it off and laughed, "Who wants it?"
Although the three little ones love to cause trouble, they are also truly united.
Seeing that there was only one badge, they looked at each other and shook their heads to indicate that they didn't want it.
If you want to play, let's play together!
Mitsuhiko scratched his head and laughed, "Sonoko-neechan, although we envy them, it's not like we absolutely have to do it. We'll figure something out ourselves."
Sonoko Suzuki was pleased with the children's performance. "But I'm really not interested in games, so they're useless to me. Ran, do you want one?"
Ran Mouri waved her hands repeatedly, "I don't want this, and I'm not interested in games."
Curaçao did want it, because she knew Lin Che had one.
However, she wasn't very familiar with Sonoko Suzuki, so after thinking about it, she didn't say anything.
Lin Che then glanced at Ai Haibara.
In my memory, the little girl would then launch into a satirical commentary on the current state of Japanese society.
But the other party doesn't seem to be planning to speak right now.
Ai Haibara certainly had no interest in criticizing Japanese society.
All she can think about right now is Lin Che.
However, those annoying second and third generation characters from the original storyline still came back to stir up hatred.
"Hideki Moroboshi" chuckled, twirling a soccer ball. "What kind of plan can you guys come up with? If you're not qualified, you're not qualified. You can't cross social classes by trying to find ways to do so."
"Some things, if you're not born with them, you'll never have them in this lifetime, so you should just give up on that idea."
Kikukawa Seiichiro's gaze involuntarily drifted to Haibara Ai's face.
As if to attract attention, he adopted the manners of an adult gentleman and said, "Miss, your temperament is too refined. It would be a disgrace to your elegance to be with these ordinary children."
"I wonder if you'd be interested in playing with us? I can help you get a trial badge."
Sonoko Suzuki was furious and couldn't help but roll her eyes. "You guys are really rude!"
She glanced at Ai Haibara again, "You're so young and you're already learning to flirt with girls in such a greasy way. It's not time for you guys to start looking for girlfriends yet!"
"Sonoko!" Ran Mouri exclaimed, surprised that her best friend was being so inappropriate. "How could you say something like that to a child?"
Just as the children were about to speak, Lin Che's tall figure suddenly stood in front of them.
You're flirting with girls in my backyard? Is that even allowed?
Has the little brat grown all his hair yet?
Lin Che casually put down the plate in his hand, picked up Moroboshi Hideki, and wiped his mouth with the other's clothes.
"Hey, hey, hey—! What do you think you're doing?!" Hideki Moroboshi struggled desperately but could only flutter around like a chick. "My dad is the Superintendent General of Police!"
"The deputy," Lin Che said calmly. "Of course, you can also call your father over and see if he dares to challenge me."
With that, he threw it away.
Kikukawa Seiichiro bore a resemblance to Mitsuhiko, his triangular eyes giving him a particularly sinister look. "Who exactly are you? I've never seen you before!"
"You're not some random nobody who snuck in here, are you?"
"I'm warning you, this isn't a place where someone like you can just run wild!"
Lin Che's eyes were cold as he raised him in the same way, "I said he didn't mention you, right? You're so young and already learning bad habits, are you all grown up yet?"
After saying that, Kikukawa Seiichiro was also thrown out, hitting the floor and wincing in pain.
There was also a chubby boy and a short boy next to him, who retreated repeatedly and dared not say a word after being glared at by Lin Che.
"Hmph, let's go play soccer!" Hideki Moroboshi got up from the ground, glaring fiercely at Lin Che. "We'll see. Once I find out who you are, you're finished!"
The three of them ran away as if they were fleeing.
"Mr. Lin, your attitude towards children is far too harsh." Kogoro Mouri took another swig of wine, his face already slightly flushed.
Sonoko Suzuki cheered, "A brat like this needs to be taught a lesson!"
The three little ones didn't have that many thoughts.
Whoever stands up for them is their hero.
Even Ai Haibara couldn't help but glance at her.
Because Lin Che's words were clearly an endorsement of her.
Mr. Lin is truly very reliable!
Conan finally felt a sense of presence. "The thought that they will inherit their fathers' careers and status to lead Japan's future makes me feel utterly hopeless about the future."
Kogoro Mouri, with his iron fist drill, said, "This is none of your business, kid, worrying about such things."
The kids were playing soccer indoors, causing chaos and confusion.
The three little ones exchanged glances and quietly slipped away.
Everyone has their temper and backbone.
They're determined to find their own way to get the game experience badges!
There are also Conan's and Ai's.
Including the one that Sonoko Suzuki has, they only need to get four badges.
The three little ones began to take action.
At this moment, someone else took a microphone and said:
"Attention, everyone! Mr. Yusaku Kudo, who provided the stage design for the Cocoon Game, has returned from the United States!"
Everyone turned their gazes to each other.
Lin Che's gaze immediately met Kudo Yusaku's.
Their eyes met from afar.
Kudo Yusaku smiled and nodded in acknowledgment, and Lin Che also raised his wine glass in the air.
One glance was enough to tell that this master of deduction was indeed paying attention to him, and was not completely indifferent to Shinichi Kudo's situation.
Yukiko Kudo did not attend this theatrical version.
To be honest, Lin Che has never met any of the beautiful married women in the world of Detective Conan.
There was thunderous applause.
Professor Agasa quietly walked up to Conan, bent down and handed him a game experience badge: "A gift I brought back for you from America."
Conan chuckled, "I was wondering where you'd been all this time. Turns out you were helping my dad with his work. Where's my mom?"
Professor Agasa stroked his beard. "She said she hadn't been back to Japan in a long time and went to a class reunion. Ran's mother might go too."
"Heh...hehe..." Conan had already imagined the scene of the two meeting. "I'm afraid this class reunion is going to be full of fighting again."
Professor Agasa shoved the badge into Conan's hand. "Let's not talk about that for now. Although I can't reveal the secret for the time being, I can tell you that the game is set in London a hundred years ago. You'll definitely love it."
"I can't just go off to play by myself, can I?" Conan turned around to look at the three kids, but couldn't find them. "Where have these guys gone again?"
Suddenly, the stage lights dimmed, and colorful spotlights illuminated a giant egg that slowly rose from the stage.
The host's voice boomed: "Next, please enjoy this groundbreaking game console, the Cocoon!"
As the host introduced the topic, Lin Che's anticipation grew stronger.
