"Sister Xiaolan, this is…"
" Hello, Ms. Mao Li, I'm Conan's cousin. I heard that Conan is staying at your house, so I came to thank you," Lin Chen said with a smile.
"Hey, hey, you really know how to act. Yes, yes, Sister Xiaolan, that's right. My brother said that he wanted to thank Sister Xiaolan properly, right, Lin Chen…Brother?" Conan pouted and said in a child-like tone with a harmless look on his face.
"That's okay, Conan is very obedient anyway. I feel like I have a cute little brother. But Mr. Lin Chen, your name doesn't seem Japanese, so why is it Conan's brother?”Xiao Lan smiled and said that it wasn't a problem. Then, she looked at Lin Chen with a puzzled expression.
Lin Chen and Conan used all sorts of excuses to trick Xiaolan. Xiaolan didn't feel anything wrong, so she asked Lin Chen to stay for dinner and went to the kitchen. Lin Chen entered the house and found that the layout was familiar yet strange. He looked at the chair that Uncle Mao Li often sat on in the anime and saw a middle-aged man reading the newspaper.
"Eh? Kid, who are you? Why are you in my house?”Uncle Mao Li felt that someone was looking at him. He put down the newspaper and looked in Lin Chen's direction. He realized that it was an unfamiliar face that he had never seen before. He shouted at Lin Chen with a suspicious expression.
Lin Chen stared at Uncle Mao Li and quickly ran to him. He grabbed the confused Uncle Mao Li's hands and worshiped him to show that he was a fan of Uncle Mao Li and also Conan's cousin. He felt bad that Conan was staying at his idol's house and flattered him a lot.
"Haha…" Conan's face twitched as he watched from the side. He complained that this flattery was full of loopholes. Only this old man would be happy.
"Sigh, kid, I like you very much. It's rare to meet a soulmate like you. This time, you're here to…Will Conan take it with him?" Uncle Mao Li laughed and asked Lin Chen if he wanted to take Conan away.
"No, I'm here to meet Uncle Mao Li and pay the foster care fee."
"Isn't it just a foster care fee? There's no need for that at all. After all, I'm a famous detective. I won't lack the five million yuan that this kid eats!？Please leave Conan here. I'll take good care of him."
At first, Uncle Mao Li patted his chest and bragged. Then, he saw Lin Chen take out a check and take it from him. He looked at the number on it and said that he would not take care of Conan.
At this time, Xiao Lan had already prepared the meal and knew what had happened when she was not there to cook. She had quarreled with Uncle Mao Li about how he could accept other people's money. She was also surprised that Lin Chen, who looked so casual, was actually so rich.
If Lin Chen knew what Xiaolan was thinking, he would have been helpless. Although it was just a casual five million, it was the money given by the system, so he didn't feel bad. He remembered seeing a video of Jack Ma being interviewed in his previous life.
"I've never touched money. I'm not interested in money."
" Because I was happiest when I was a teacher. I received a few hundred yuan every month."
Lin Chen said that he was also very capable. Like Jack Ma, he didn't lack money. However, the only difference was that Lin Chen's money was given by the system, while Jack Ma's was too much. After the meal, she lamented that Xiaolan's culinary skills were really in inverse proportion to her mother's.
Just as he was about to ask if he could sleep with Conan at the office for a night, he heard a knock on the door. Mr. Mao Li stood up and opened the door unhappily. He shouted," We're closed. If you have anything to do, please come early tomorrow..." Then, just as he turned around and took two steps, he seemed to have thought of something. He rushed back and stammered,"You..." You... You're Okino Yoko?"
Uncle Mao Li then closed the door, rushed back to his room to change into his suit, and rushed out to open the door. With a fresh rose in his mouth, he completed what an ordinary person could do in a minute in just a few seconds.
Lin Chen couldn't help but sigh. This world clearly didn't have supernatural powers, but it was so illogical. For example, Conan could get bumps on his head, and black smoke could be seen coming out of his body. Xiaolan had a sharp horn on her head, and so on.
However, Lin Chen was not worried. Why did he have to be so serious? As long as he was happy, he would be happy. When he saw the woman and the man brought in by Uncle Mao Li, Lin Chen looked at the woman's face and realized that today was the day of the idol's secret room murder. Then, he felt that someone was following him and Conan. Moreover, with such lousy skills, it should be the three primary school students from Imperial Pill Primary School.
Thinking of this, Lin Chen wanted to scare Conan. He told Uncle Mao Li that he was going to buy something, then went out of the door and called the system in the corridor.
"Sigh, system, exchange for a set of black clothes and a replica gun for me. What kind of mission do I need?”Lin Chen wanted to laugh when he thought of Conan's frightened expression.
"Ding, please choose the set to be exchanged.”
" One, an ordinary black coat set. It's so ordinary that it can be discovered to be a fake gun. You need to receive an F-rank mission."
" Second, a coat with a hidden intimidation attribute that allows the user to switch between a gun and a simulated gun at will. You need to receive an E-rank mission."
"Is this E-rank mission difficult for me?”
"It's not difficult. It all depends on the host's charisma."
“... Hmm, hmph, hmph, hmph…The system is not bad. It knows that my charm is unstoppable, so it likes a system like you who likes to tell the truth. Exchange for the second set. Receive the mission."
"Ding! Exchange successful. Since this is the host's first exchange, one cubic meter of storage space will be given.”
"Ding! Quest activated. Quest as follows:
