Conan's All-Member Force Enhancement Plan

Chapter 16 A Keepsake from Childhood

After explaining the cause and effect of the matter, Si Xihuan pulled Si Xuanyu aside while the children were talking about it.

Seeing this, Kudo Shinichi immediately wanted to follow, but was stopped by Kuroba Kaito: "You don't want to experience Xuan Yu's darts, do you?"

Wu Zhiyin stood between the children and the Si family mother and daughter, acting as a guard.

Kudo Shinichi thought of the fighting power of Wu Zhiyin and Si Xuanyu, and silently retreated to continue reading the comics, only glancing at the mother and daughter from time to time, and pricked up his ears to try to obtain information remotely.

Si Xuanyu didn't care about Kudo Shinichi's prying: "Mom, what do you want to ask me?"

"It's about the Green family. I think there may be some hidden story behind this matter involving the Green siblings. Did you find anything when you were at the scene?"

Si Xuanyu nodded and told Si Xihuan what they had discovered.

Si Xihuan thought for a moment, "I see. It seems there is a lot of room for maneuver here... By the way, Mr. Green said he wanted to thank you in person, I declined for you.

You have just been declared the heir, so it is better not to get involved in their family affairs. The Green family will leave when we dock tomorrow. Before then, you should avoid the Green family to avoid being entangled and causing trouble."

Si Xuanyu agreed, went to the sofa, got a bag of potato chips for Si Xihuan, and then sent her away.

When he returned to the room, Si Xuanyu ignored Kudo Shinichi's expectant look and asked his friends: "Tomorrow is the first stop, are you going to leave?"

Mao Lilan shook her head: "Sister Yukiko and Uncle Yusaku will stay until the end of the voyage. Shinichi and I have also asked for a 20-day vacation from the kindergarten, so we will wait until the end of the voyage before leaving."

Kuroba Kaito also said that his father will have a closing performance on the last day, so their family will play on the boat until the last stop before getting off.

Suzuki Ayako expressed regret that the schoolwork in junior high school was quite tight and she could not take too long of a leave. Her mom and dad also had things to do later, so she would leave with them tomorrow.

Suzuki Sonoko happily put her hands on her hips and said, "I don't have to leave tomorrow! I've already told my mother, and she asked Sister Yukiko to take care of me, so I, like Xiaolan and Shinichi, will wait until the voyage is over before leaving."

Shiho was in a low mood. She came here with Karasuma Kiyomasa, but Karasuma Group was busy with affairs, so she had to leave tomorrow as well.

Mingmei patted her sister's head to comfort her: "Uncle Karasuma still has some business to deal with, so we will leave with him tomorrow."

Si Xuanyu thought about it, stood up and looked around the room. When he returned to the sofa, he was holding a pile of toys and books in his hands.

He spread out the things on the table all at once and said, "Since Sister Ayako, Sister Akemi, and Shiho are leaving tomorrow, I will give you some gifts.

These toys are all ones that I have tried and found to be very fun. You can choose yourselves. As for these books, I have read them all. There are junior high school reading materials suitable for sisters Ayako and Akemi, as well as popular science books that Shiho likes.

Although some of it is a bit obscure, I believe that with Shiho's learning speed, she will be able to understand it quickly! "

Si Xuanyu picked and chose, roughly divided the things into three parts, picked up three relatively good-looking bags, and put the things in them.

"I have a lot of books and custom-made toys at home. I'll let you know if I find anything interesting or nice. Everyone has left their addresses anyway, so I'll send it to you if you like it!"

The three did not refuse. Seeing this, the others also said they had gifts to give, and they all got up and ran towards their rooms. Suzuki Ayako also said she had a return gift, and ran back to her room.

Shiho and Akemi were a little overwhelmed, as they didn't bring much with them and didn't have the money to buy gifts.

Si Xuanyu understood their predicament: "My mother's promise to pay for all the shopping is still valid. If you need anything, you can go to the shopping mall at any time to buy what you need."

Hearing this, Shiho looked at her sister hesitantly. Mingmei thought about it and rejected Si Xuanyu's proposal: "No, Xuanyu, thank you, but it's not good to use Aunt Si's money for gifts. I have thought of what to give, let's go back and prepare it first."

After saying that, he pulled Shiho back to the room.

Si Xuanyu did not watch them choose gifts, but asked Wu Zhiyin to send someone to escort them back to their room.

People who went to get gifts came back one after another. They were all people who were going to stay for half a month, so they brought quite a lot of things with them. As Suzuki Ayako was the heir to the Suzuki Group, she brought quite a few things that could be used as gifts even though she was only staying for three days.

After waiting for about half an hour, Shiho and Akemi also came back.

Suzuki Sonoko took out a few skirts and a brooch: "Shiho, I haven't worn these skirts yet. They are the same brand as the ones you bought before. I have a similar figure to you. Do you like them?

Sister Mingmei, I bought this brooch when I went to Italy. I think it is very beautiful. I give it to you!"

Shiho first looked at several skirts with surprise. They were all new models of this year. She had seen them in the shopping mall and liked them all, but she didn't want to buy too many, so she picked the cheapest one and bought it.

Then she remembered the prices she had seen before and felt a little embarrassed: "I like all these skirts, but the prices are too high. I'll just choose one!"

Suzuki Sonoko waved her hand proudly and said, "As long as you like it, I gave it to you anyway. This little money is nothing to me!

I like you a lot during these two days of getting along, so please accept my love, Miss Suzuki!"

Shiho was a little hesitant, and Akemi smiled and motioned her sister to accept it. Although they did feel a little pressured to accept such an expensive gift, they still didn't want to let the children down.

Shiho received the look from her sister and nodded happily to accept it: "Thank you, Sonoko! I will wear the skirt you gave me well!"

Mingmei also took the brooch and thanked Suzuki Sonoko, saying that the brooch suited her and she liked it very much.

Mao Lilan gave a small bag she knitted herself, Shiho gave a blue backpack with a knitted white bear hanging on it, Mingmei gave a shoulder bag with a white background and a yellow dog, and Suzuki Ayako gave a shoulder bag with a green background and red flowers: "This is what my mother taught me to make, and I'm giving it to you! I hope you like it!"

Shiho happily folded the skirt that Suzuki Sonoko gave her and put it in the bag that Mao Lilan gave her: "It's so cute! I like it very much. Thank you, Xiaolan!"

Mingmei and Suzuki Ayako also echoed this and put their bags on their backs to look at them.

Kuroba Kaito used gorgeous techniques to conjure up a few chocolates, successfully winning smiles from the three girls.

Kudo Shinichi took out three comic books that he thought were good and gave them to the three people who were about to leave.

The three of them said they liked the gifts very much and began to return the gifts. Suzuki Ayako prepared six folding fans: "This is the folding fan that my family specially customized before. Each fan is different. I picked the ones that I think are suitable for you. See if you like them?"

Si Xuanyu took the fan from her. It had a soft touch, clear texture, solid frame, smooth opening and closing, neat and symmetrical shape, exquisite carvings and decorations, and the fan surface had good meaning. It was a top-quality fan.

The six children who received the return gifts all thanked Suzuki Sonoko.

Shiho and Akemi took out the gifts they had prepared, a little embarrassed: "We didn't think about preparing gifts before we came here. This is something we made at the last minute, so it's a little crude, please forgive us."

Shiho took out a stack of origami from her pocket. There were six origami in total, representing various animals and plants. She introduced them one by one: "This is a wolf for Xuan Yu, this is a butterfly for Xiaolan, this is a sunflower for Sonoko, this is a cat for Sister Ayako, and there is also a magic hat for Kaito and a detective pipe for Shinichi. I hope you like it!"

"Wow! That's amazing! It can even move! In this case, I'm looking forward to sister Mingmei's gift." Mao Lilan couldn't let go of the little butterfly that could flap its wings by pulling the tail.

Mingmei took out a stack of wrapped papers and said, "This is the sketch I drew for you. How do you think it is? Is there anything you want to modify?"

Everyone got their own sketch, which was the first time they met Mingmei, Si Xuanyu in a tuxedo, Kuroba Kaito who conjured flowers to perform a gentlemanly salute, Suzuki Sonoko and Mao Li Ran with bright smiles, the gentle Suzuki Ayako, and the arrogant and tsundere Kudo Shinichi.

Looking at the paintings in their hands that looked just like photos, everyone was amazed. At the same time, they touched and looked at the gifts they had just received, and the sadness of parting seemed to disappear.
