Chapter 498 A Gift for Kaito

After being intimidated by Ze Yu's momentum, Wangcai finally became obedient, stopped resisting, and let Huibara Ai help him take a bath.

After a while, after washing, Wang Chai jumped out of the basin, shook his head reluctantly, then stretched out his paw and licked the wet hair on his paw.

Seeing this, Ze Yu retracted the slight aura he had revealed and returned to his natural state.

"Meow..." Feeling the oppressive aura disappear, Wangcai breathed a sigh of relief, then left the bathroom somewhat unhappily.

"How does it feel to give a cat a bath?" Ze Yu asked with a smile.

"It's too much effort." Huiyuan Ai wiped the sweat off her face and said helplessly, "I see, you gave John a bath quite smoothly. Why don't we switch next time?"

"As long as you are happy." Ze Yu's mouth corners slightly raised, and he rubbed John's dog head.

In fact, John didn't want to take a shower either, but he didn't dare to resist Ze Yu, so he could only accept it helplessly.

If Haibara Ai and Sawaha swapped targets, it is hard to say whether John would be as well-behaved as he is now.

However, Ze Yu did not intend to tell Haibara Ai about this matter, so let her keep her fantasy.

Just like before, Sawa Yu did not tell Haibara Ai about Hiroki's talent. Sawa Yu did not want to say anything about something that would make her unhappy.

Under normal circumstances, he is still very gentle.

.........

a few days later.

Tokyo, Ekoda Town, Kuroba Residence.

Kaito took out a gift box from his mailbox. He took it to the bedroom and opened it with curiosity and caution.

It turned out to be a box of mooncakes with a note inside.

[Douzi, long time no see. I'm sending you a box of mooncakes. Don't forget me. - Aragaki Zeyu. ]

"What are you doing..."

After reading the note, Kaito felt helpless.

Mooncakes are not very common in the island country, but Kaito knows mooncakes. He knows that they are the pastries that Chinese people eat when appreciating the moon during the Mid-Autumn Festival.

But the question is, how long has the Mid-Autumn Festival been over?

Wouldn’t that little guy feel it’s too late for him to give himself mooncakes at this time?

Kaito knew that he and the other party both lived in Tokyo, the same city, so it wouldn't take too long to send a gift.

Therefore, there is no such thing as "it takes too long to send a gift and it is out of date when it arrives."

Kaito can guarantee that this mooncake must have been sent out by Ze Yu not long ago.

It’s been such a long time since the Mid-Autumn Festival, and that little guy just remembered to send mooncakes to others. It’s really enough...

Kaito looked quietly at the mooncakes in the box, and an idea flashed through his mind.

Based on Xiaoyu's personality, he wouldn't have tampered with these mooncakes, right?
However, it seems not good to maliciously speculate about others behind their backs...

"Forget it, it's a kind gesture after all." Kaito shook his head and finally chose to believe Sawaha.

He plucked up his courage, picked up a piece of mooncake, and took a bite carefully.

As soon as Kaito put the mooncake in his mouth, he could feel that there was no strange taste in his mouth, only the sweetness of the mooncake.

This made his eyes light up slightly.

"Not bad..."

Kaito praised, finished this mooncake, and picked up the second one.

He turned his head, looked at the computer screen beside him, and took a bite of the mooncake.

At this moment, an email interface was playing on the computer screen.

[Master Chunjing, keep going, I look forward to your performance! ——Red Herring.] The email was sent half a year ago.

Kaito was eating mooncakes while looking at the computer.

Before he knew it, he picked up the third mooncake and put it into his mouth with confidence.

However, he seemed to have forgotten his initial caution about the mooncake.

Kaito, who had lost his vigilance, was obviously careless and forgot the evil side of Sawaha's character.

Kaito stared at the computer quietly, biting his tongue subconsciously...

Then, a fishy smell came from my mouth.

Kaito's face turned green and he fell directly onto the computer desk, losing his voice.

In the second before he fainted, a sad and angry thought flashed through his mind.

Damn Xiaoyu, you’re cheating me again!
If I eat anything you give me again, I'll be a dog!

As he thought this, Kaito passed out.

He didn't know that the reason why Ze Yu gave him this box of mooncakes was because of something Yuan Tai once said.

[Can eel meat be added to mooncake fillings? ]

When Ze Yu heard Yuan Tai's words at that time, he couldn't help but complain in his heart, thinking that Yuan Tai was very unreliable.

But then, he thought about it carefully...

Adding fish filling to mooncakes seems like a good idea?
It just so happens that among Ze Yu's friends, there is one who "likes" to eat fish, so let's give him a box of mooncakes with fish filling.

Of course, Ze Yu did not forget to put a few more original mooncakes in this box of fish-filled mooncakes as a complement.

Most of the mooncakes in the gift box delivered to Kaito were filled with fish, with only a few original mooncakes.

He was lucky enough to get the original mooncake twice in a row, but unfortunately, his luck did not continue.

The third mooncake directly turned Kaito back to his original form, ending his short-lived good luck.

.........

A few days later, the weekend.

Just like what Guangyan said when everyone was chatting a week ago: [Winter will come in a few days, why don’t we wait until next weekend and go skiing together? ]

Now, the weekend is here and no one is going skiing, but winter is definitely here.

The ground was covered with snow.

boom……

A car was driving on the snow, and the engine made a low roar.

The driver was Uncle Mouri, the passengers were Sonoko and Ran, and the trio of Conan, Sawaba, and Haibara Ai.

"Everyone, look here!"

On the back seat of the car, Yuanzi was holding a clean white handkerchief and said with great interest: "Look, there is nothing on this handkerchief."

"Then, take another string and a ring, and then..."

"Ms. Xiaolan, please help me tie a knot in the middle of this line..."

"Now put the knot on your hand, put the ring next to the rope, and then cover it with the handkerchief..."

"Now it's time to witness a miracle!"

"Look, at some point, the ring has moved to the middle of the rope!"

Yuanzi showed a proud smile and lifted the white cloth. Her hands were holding a rope with an exquisite ring in the middle of the rope.
