21. Xiaolan as a model

\"Uncle, I'm back.\" At half past seven o'clock in the evening, Xiaobai opened the door on the third floor.

\"Xiaobai, I'm coming back very late today.\" As soon as I entered the door, I saw Xiaolan pinching her waist and looking at him.

\"Hehe, Sister Xiaolan, I invite you to eat chocolate.\" Xiaobai took out the chocolate from his pocket with one hand and handed it to Xiaolan.

\"Hmph, do you want me to forgive you like this?\" Xiaolan took the chocolate, and then looked at Xiaobai.

"Of course, of course, there are three chocolates in total.\" Xiaobai immediately took out the other two chocolates from his pocket, and his face seemed to have a painful expression.

\"Okay Xiaolan, stop teasing him, hurry up and make the meal hot for him.\" Maori looked at Xiaobai with a painful expression, and the corners of his mouth raised slightly.

\"Got Dad, Xiaobai, wait a while, Sister Xiaolan will give you a hot meal, remember to come back early next time.\" Xiaolan took the chocolate, then stuck out her tongue at Maori, and smiled at Xiaobai, it seemed that it was quite interesting to tease Xiaobai.

\"I didn't expect Xiaolan to have this side.\" Conan on the side looked speechless and thought.

This week, it's almost Saturday.

And on Friday, because she promised Ayumi to paint her a portrait.After school, Motota Mitsuhiko and others also said that they wanted to join, and in the end, Xiaobai had no choice but to let Conan and them stand together, and then drew a picture for them.

And that one was given to Ayumi, and she got that portrait with a smile on her face along the way.

And Yuan Tai and the others, after making an appointment to play football on Saturday afternoon, they each said goodbye and went home.

Then today is Saturday.

On the bus...

"Really, it's a holiday, why is the traffic jam stuffed like this?\" Maori leaned his hands on the seat behind him, looked at the slowly moving bus, and said in a little depression.

\"Ran, wouldn't it be faster if I took the train.\" Maori asked, looking at Ran beside him.

I saw Xiaolan wearing a beige sweater and an orange jacket today, a blue short skirt on her lower body, a pair of sneakers on her feet, and a bouquet of flowers in her hand.

\"I never thought of being a model for Toya's clothes, I always felt like I was dreaming.\" I saw Xiaolan close her eyes, raise her head and smile and say, As for Maori's talk about taking the train?Well, this kind of question was directly ignored.

"Is the other party really called Eiko Toya?

\"Japan's premier top designer Eiko Toya, right.\" I saw Xiaolan flowing like a cloud to tell the origin of Eiko Toya.

"Mmmm

\"By the way, it seems that Eiko Toya's fashion show was suddenly suspended a while ago, and then the news came out a few days ago that her secretary Mika Taniguchi had been fired.\" Conan, who was sitting by the window, held his chin and said.

\"Well, it seems that their competitors were forced to suspend a winter fashion similar to theirs one step earlier, and the newspaper said that Mika Taniguchi sold the design to a rival company before being fired.\" I saw Maori holding his hands in his arms and touching his chin with his right hand and said.

"You know very well, uncle.\" Conan turned his head to look at Maori.

\"You shouldn't be a fan of Eiko Toya.\" I saw Conan squinting at Mori.

"Yo oh.\" Maori was stunned, as if he was right?

"Dad, really?\" Ran asked Maori beside her.

"Don't be kidding, the so-called detective must always care about society in order to expand his business tentacles.\" I saw Maori Bi say hand in hand.

"What tentacles will this have...\" Conan on the side continued to hold his chin, and could only be speechless.

And Xiaobai looked at this scene, smiled and didn't say a word.

\"This is it.\" After getting out of the car, Xiaolan and the others came to the destination, that is, the place where Xiaobai has been here several times, and this place is... The company where Eiko Toya works.

"It's a big building.\" Maori sighed as he looked at the building in front of him, then jumped to the side, squatted down, took out a mirror and a comb, and began to comb his hair.

"Uncle, you're not here to be a model...\" Conan said as he watched Maori's movements.

\"You little devil keeps nagging, it's noisy.\" Maori stood up, holding a mirror in one hand and a comb in the other, and said to Conan.

\"Okay uncle, let's go in.\" Xiaobai looked at the two living treasures from the side, and could only say helplessly.

...

"I'm sorry, my name is Maoriran.\" Ran said to the guards inside as she entered.

\"I'll check first.\" I saw the guard look at the list in his hand.

\"The chairman will be back soon, please wait a little longer over there.\" and after confirming that everything was correct, he replied to Maoliran.

\"Okay.\" Xiaolan held the flower and walked towards Maori.

Maori was now in his pockets with his hands in his hands, looking at the clothes on the side.

"It's pretty quiet here.\" Lan said, looking around.

\"Yes, because it's a holiday, there's no one else there, it's quiet...\" I saw the guard reply as he wrote something, and then seemed to hear something, and turned his head to look at the doorway.

\"I'm really sorry, Miss Mori, have you waited for a long time?\" Eiko Toya, who was wearing a gray coat and light gray leggings as usual, looked at Moriran and asked.

\"No.\" Xiaolan replied, holding the flowers.

As for Xiaobai, he stood next to Maori and also looked at the exhibition costumes, because Eiko Toya, who was trotting in, only cared about looking at Xiaolan, so he didn't notice Xiaobai who was looking at the costumes.

\"I'm so sorry.\" I saw Eiko Toya coming over from the guard.

\"This is my father, and Edogawa Conan, and...\" At this time, Conan and the others walked to Xiaolan's side, and then saw Xiaolan introducing.

\"Aunt Yingzi, and my Maori Bai.\" I saw that Xiaobai didn't wait for Xiaolan to introduce him, he replied with his head in his hands.

"Little ghost, don't be so rude.\""Xiaobai, don't be so rude.\" I saw Mao Li and Xiaolan looking at Xiaobai and said.

\"Oh,It turned out to be Xiaobai.\" At this time, Eiko Toya seemed to notice Maori Bai, and squatted down to pinch Xiaobai's face with her hands.

\"Aunt Yingzi, why do you pinch my face every time you see me.\" Xiaobai took a step back.

\"Hehe, I just feel like you're cute.\" Eiko Toya said, as if feeling a little wrong, and stood up.

And Xiaolan, Maori and Conan on the side, have been petrified.

\"This little ghost...\"\"Xiaobaihe...\"\"\"actually called her Aunt Yingzi?\"This is the idea of Maori and Xiaolan and Conan.

And Eiko Toya smiled and looked at Maori Bai and didn't say anything.

\"Ahem, that, the child is not sensible, please forgive me.\" I saw Maori cough dryly twice.

\"Hehe, it's okay, who are you?\" Eiko Toya smiled.

\"I'm Mori Kogoro, and my daughter will trouble you this time.\" I saw Mori put his left hand on his right chest, bent down slightly, and seemed to bow to Eiko Toya like a nobleman.

"Mori Kogoro?Detective Mori Kogoro?\" Eiko Toya exclaimed in surprise.

\"Where, it's an infinite honor for you to hear our name, this is my little care, please smile, Toya-sensei.\" Mori smiled and took the bouquet from Xiaolan's hand and gave it to Toya Eiko.

\"Thank you so much, Mr. Mori.\" Eiko Toya took the bouquet from Mori's hand and smiled.

\"Where, where.\" Maori laughed with his right hand on the back of his head.

\"Aunt Yingzi, I heard that you are looking for Sister Xiaolan to be a model?\" I saw Xiaobai walk up to Toya Yingzi's side and gently touch her leg heel.

\"Hehe,yes.I just didn't expect her to be your sister.\ I was skeptical at the time.\" Eiko Toya squatted down, holding a flower in one hand, and wanted to pinch Maoribai's face with the other, but she was afraid that he would dodge, so she had to pat him on the head.

\"That...\" I saw that Xiaolan was hesitant to say something.

\"Oh, hehe, I'm really sorry, Miss Maori, I'm smiling at you.Please sit here and wait, I'll go up and get ready first.By the way, Xiaobai, you can come with me too.Mr. Maori, that's no problem?\" I saw Eiko Toya apologize to Xiaoran, then pointed to the sofa on the side, and finally held the bouquet in one hand and took Xiaobai's hand in the other, and asked Maori.

"No problem, haha, Xiaobai, I have to listen to Toya-sensei.\" Maori laughed, and then said to Xiaobai in a didactic tone.

\"Hi.\" Xiaobai answered, and got on the elevator with Eiko Toya.

...

\"Xiaobai, thank you this time.\" Eiko Toya's voice came from the elevator.

"What's wrong?" Aunt Yingzi.\" Xiaobai asked with confusion.

\"Hehe, it's okay.\" Eiko Toya looked at Mori Bai and smiled, then looked at the number of floors of the stairs.

\"Come, Aunt Eiko, I invite you to eat chocolate.\" I saw Xiaobai take out a bag of chocolate from his pocket and hand it to Eiko Toya.

\"Oh, do you like chocolate?\" Eiko Toya took the chocolate, unpacked it and ate it.

\"Hmm.\" Xiaobai took out a chocolate from his pocket again, tore open the package, threw it into his mouth, and replied vaguely.

And Eiko Toya on the side looked at Xiaobai and smiled.

When I got to the office, after Eiko Toya sorted out everything, she chatted with Xiaobai about some other things such as family life, and also walked towards the elevator.

When we got downstairs, the photographer and other groups had already arrived, and Eiko Toya was carrying four handbags.

In the morning, the group went to the beach and set up a temporary changing room, and after the photographer and others were ready, Eiko Toya took out two sets of clothes from the handbag in her hand. Two sets of Maori white paintings.

After wearing it on Xiaolan, just like Xiaobai's painting, wearing a white long skirt and a wedding dress-like cloth, Xiaolan was wearing a white sunhat and smiling at the camera.

As for Conan, he looked at Xiaolan and was stunned.

As for Maori, he chatted with Eiko Toya with a match.

After having lunch at noon, I went to the forest and the park to shoot after being fully prepared, and the remaining two sets were also painted by Xiaobai, which added a touch of beauty and sunshine to Xiaolan.

Eiko Toya looked at Ran's smile, looked at the costume, and smiled.

By the time everything was over, it was already about 3:30 p.m.

"Thank you.\" Eiko Toya bent down and thanked Ran and the photographer.

\"Mr. Toya, this is unbearable.\" The photographer and others hurriedly stepped forward to help Eiko Toya.

\"Xiaolan, those clothes are designed by Xiaobai.\" I saw that Xiaolan, who was about to speak, was interrupted by Eiko Toya.

\"Huh?\" I saw Xiaolan look at Eiko Toya suspiciously, and then looked at Xiaobai on the side, and the same movements as Xiaolan were Maori and Conan.

\"Hehe, if it weren't for the inspiration from his paintings, I might not have been able to design better outfits, and these four outfits are just costumes made according to his paintings.\" Eiko Toya smiled.

\"Hehe, come, Sister Xiaolan, eat chocolate, and Uncle Maori.\" I saw Xiaobai take out a few chocolates from his pocket and distribute them to the few people present.

\"It seems that Xiaobai is really a genius.\"This is Xiaolan, Maori and Conan's idea.Maybe because of the last cooking incident, they have become accustomed to thinking that Xiaobai can draw, and it must be his talent.Perhaps, he may be an all-rounder.

\"Oh, yes.\" Eiko Toya took the chocolate and seemed to think of something, and took something out of her satchel.

Then I saw Eiko Toya take out a box of very beautiful chocolates and give it to Maori Shiro.

\"This one was given to you.\" Eiko Toya smiled and handed the chocolate to Mori Shiro.

\"Hehe, then thank you Aunt Yingzi.\" Xiaobai smiled and took the chocolate.

\"Okay, Toya-sensei, I'm really sorry for you this time, and it's time for us to leave.\" Mori looked at the photographer and others who had packed everything and were ready to go back to the company.

\"It's okay, I'm the one who should say thank you.\" Eiko Toya looked at Xiaolan and then at Xiaobai and smiled.

"By the way, Mr. Mori, I hope you will be able to participate in the next fashion exhibition.\" Eiko Toya, who seemed to have something in mind, added.

\"Really?\" I saw Xiaolan looking at Eiko Toya with her hands crossed.

\"Well, I'll send out an invitation when we hold it next time.\" Eiko Toya said with a smile.

"Then we'll be there together.\" Maori replied affirmatively.

"Thank you then.\" Eiko Toya thanked her.

"Then Mr. Toya, let's take our leave.\" Mori also bent down and bowed.

\"Well, be careful on the road.\" Eiko Toya replied as she ran to the photographer.

\"Hehe, I didn't expect our Xiaobai to be so genius.\" On the tram, Maori patted Xiaobai's head.

\"Cut, I've always been very smart.\" Xiaobai pouted dissatisfied with Maori's movements, and the expression was so cute.

\"Haha...\" Xiaolan and the others smiled.

\"By the way, Conan, Yuan Tai and the others said that they were going to play football in the afternoon.\" Xiaobai turned his head to Conan and said.

\"Well, uncle, after getting out of the car, Xiaobai and I will go to find Yuantai and them, and we will come back on time for dinner.\" Conan said to Maori on the side.

"Go ahead, have fun.\" Maori waved his hand.

"I'm going to come back early for dinner in the evening.\" Xiaolan added.

\"Hi.\" Conan and Shiro responded at the same time.

...

"Conan, tonight's game must be great.\" In the nearby woods, Motota said to Conan on the side, holding a football.

"Match?\" Conan gave a puzzled expression.

"It's a football tournament.\" Mitsuhiko explained.

\"Oh, it's tomorrow's final.\" Conan said, looking up.

\"Xiaobai, guess which team will win?. Ayumi asked, looking at Shiro.

\"I don't know about this.\" Xiaobai touched the back of his head and smiled.

\"I want to know that there must be a heroic Tokyo Soul Team.Anyway, they are a team that has won seventeen games in a row.\" Motota said excitedly.

"Heroes are good, but I still like Naoki.\" Ayumi said as she walked.

\"But I heard that Naoki was injured in the previous game, so he shouldn't be able to play in this game, right?\" Mitsuhiko on the side thought about it and said to Ayumi.

"But I still think the Super Osaka team with Rams will win, because he is excellent both in attack and defense.\" Mitsuhiko looked up and thought about it and added.

\"Football...\" Conan muttered to himself.

\"Well, goodbye.\" On a street, after saying goodbye to Ayumi and the others, Conan and Xiaobai walked to the detective agency together.
