Chapter 141 Conan's Complaints
"I'm not a detective. I'm just a passerby who wants to eat."
After saying this, Zhou Hao strode directly outside without waiting for the two of them. Passersby who heard this couldn't help but start talking about it.
"Fuck, this guy is so pretentious, I really want to beat him up."
When passerby B heard what passerby A said, he nodded in agreement.
"Who says he isn't? Although he is quite awesome to you, isn't he too self-righteous? He is even more cocky than the popular Kudo Shinichi from a few years ago."
As luck would have it, Conan, who was watching Zhou Hao walking away, was about to take a step to catch up when he heard these words. Now Conan's face darkened.
I'm not that pretentious. It's obviously the one who's pretentious in front of me, okay? I was just showing off a little bit.
Conan completely disagreed with what passerby A said about him being pretentious, and originally wanted to have a good talk with the two of them, but when he saw Zhou Hao who had already left and Kisaki Eri who was about to leave, he lost interest in the idea and strode forward to catch up with the two of them.
Although Kisaki Eri, who left first, did not have as many thoughts as Conan, she was very curious. She was very curious about this little boy who was more powerful than her husband.
Ten minutes later, Zhou Hao, Conan, and Kisaki Eri sat down in another five-star restaurant. At this time, a waiter took the menu and wanted to hand it to Zhou Hao, who seemed to be the person in charge.
But Zhou Hao waved his hand and turned his eyes to Fei Yingli.
The waiter was also a smart guy. When he saw Zhou Hao's eyes, he lowered his head and apologized sensibly, then handed the menu in his hand to Kisaki Eri.
"Thank you."
Kisaki Eri took the menu and thanked the waiter, but Conan, who saw all this, curled his lips.
Because in his mind, Zhou Hao's behavior was obviously to please his mother-in-law, and in his eyes such behavior was very shameful.
Would Zhou Hao, who felt all this, care about Conan, this little brat? Of course not, after all, he was just a little brat, at most he would find an opportunity to beat him up later.
Huh? Didn't I say this before?
Just when Zhou Hao was daydreaming, Fei Yingli next to him had already ordered the dishes. Hearing the waiter's footsteps walking away, she looked at the big boy in front of her curiously.
"Tell me, what do you want from me?"
Faced with the question from his future mother-in-law, Zhou Hao seemed very confused. He couldn't help but let out a cry: "Huh?"
Seeing Zhou Hao's reaction, Fei Yingli also stood up for a moment. She even suspected that her feeling was wrong.
But she quickly reaffirmed her confidence. The boy who greeted her before must have ulterior motives or he had something to do! But this guy said he was friends with Xiaolan, and even Conan next to him admitted it. Should she ask him about it?
In fact, the Queen of Law really guessed wrong this time. It was true that Zhou Hao came out to eat this time, and it was also true that he did not expect to meet her.
Actually, Zhou Hao's damn sixth sense of Hibiki Eri only came to his mind after he saw her. What Zhou Hao didn't expect was that this queen of the legal world was so wary.
I just looked at the other person for a little longer and thought about it a little more, but he found out. This is just too scientific.
"Aunt Yingli, right? I really have a question I want to ask you, what do you think?"
Seeing that the atmosphere was about to freeze, Zhou Hao had no choice but to bring up the topic first. Otherwise, it would be too awkward to just sit there, and Zhou Hao himself couldn't stand it.
Hearing the voice, Kisaki Eri nodded as if to be expected. She said, how could this young man come to her without any problems? It turned out that he had not thought it through.
Thinking of this, Fei Yingli nodded towards Zhou Hao, indicating that he could ask any questions.
"Uh... Aunt Yingli, I have a large investment in China. Can you come over and be my consultant?"
Zhou Hao hesitated for a moment before speaking. The main reason was that he was dealing with some books on cultivation and some books on supernatural powers. The only place where the law could be used was the investment in the Magic City.
(The purchase of the Suzuki Group does not count, because that was directly distributed by the system and there could not be any problems, so Zhou Hao only used the law for this one.)
Listening to Zhou Hao's request, Fei Yingli hesitated for a moment before speaking:
"This gentleman..."
Before Hibiki Eri could finish her words, she was interrupted by Zhou Hao's wave of his hand.
"Aunt Yingli, Xiaolan and I know each other, so you can call me Xiao Zhou or Xiao Hao."
After hearing this, Hibiki became even more hesitant, but after a struggle her eyes finally looked at Zhou Hao.
"That Xiao Zhou, right? I don't know much about Chinese laws, so."
The words were spoken very tactfully and Zhou Hao understood them, but he was not sad, because this was just a topic thrown out casually. Now that they couldn't continue the conversation, they could just change the topic. It wasn't a big problem.
Seeing that Zhou Hao's expression didn't change much, Kisaragi, who was sitting opposite him, also breathed a sigh of relief.
The main reason was that she didn't know what the relationship between the boy and Xiaolan was, and she was afraid of what impact Xiaolan would have if she rejected the boy, so she was so hesitant just now.
Little Conan, who heard the conversation between the two, couldn't help but curl his lips. In his eyes, Zhou Hao was just a rich second-generation with a little money, and he just said those words just to please the old lady next to him.
It wasn't enough to think about this in his mind, he even muttered something out loud.
"What? It's just a small project. It doesn't cost much."
Although he muttered very quietly, the box was small after all, so the two of them could hear it clearly.
"What Conan said is right. It's just a small project. It doesn't cost much. It's only 9000 billion US dollars."
"Cough, cough!"*2
This cough shocked not only Conan, but also Eri Kisaki.
Fortunately, both of them knew the rich man Sonoko. Apart from the initial shock, their mood soon calmed down. However, although Conan's mood calmed down, he cursed himself and Zhou Hao in his heart.
Kudo Shinichi, Kudo Shinichi, you are such a bad talker, why did you give this guy the chance to show off!
Conan was indeed regretting at this time, because although his relationship with Xiaolan was unilaterally broken up by Xiaolan, he thought that it was because he had not appeared for a long time that Xiaolan abandoned him and chose Zhou Hao.
Then, as long as Ai develops the antidote and shows up herself, Xiaolan will definitely change her mind.
But now he is helping Zhou Hao in front to show off, Xiaolan's mother will have a deeper impression of Zhou Hao, and he will be aiding the enemy.
Conan would feel so regretful thinking about these things.
Zhou Hao on the other side didn't know Conan had these little thoughts. Even if he knew, he would just say disdainfully: "Bah, shrimp-headed man, what a shrimp-head."
