the next day.

Although Ye Gengyi didn't know that this was the first winter in Ke Xue's world, there was no doubt that it was really snowing outside.

so cold...

With such emotion, he took out his winter down jacket.

The living room was empty, Dr. A Li and Hui Yuan Ai seemed to be still sleeping.

Xueli was awake, lying on her stomach in front of the food bowl, trying to cook.

Ye Gengyi felt that 'the meal after exercise is the most delicious', so when passing by, he carried this four-cornered creature onto the cat climbing frame by the way.

Sydney still has more personality... just don't eat it.

"Tsk tsk, have you already started to enjoy this life without worrying about food and clothing? Maybe it's time to put you back into society and have a good experience."

As soon as the words were finished, there were footsteps behind him. Ye Geng turned around and found that Xiao Ai was looking at him with a pair of half-moon eyes.

"Morning." Ye Gengyi greeted, and his eyes fell on the direction she came from.

The basement... I just don't know if I'm researching the ampoule I left yesterday, or the antidote for APTX-4869.

"Morning." Hui Yuanai yawned, looking like he was seriously sleep deprived.

The ampoules contain dextrose, the kind that doesn't matter if you take it orally or inject it.

Therefore, the scene last night can only be regarded as "I made a mistake".

But... did I really read it wrong?

Hui Yuanai thought, watching someone walk into the kitchen.

It may be due to the sudden drop in temperature. Dr. Ali was sealed in bed and did not get up for breakfast.

Ye Gengyi also doesn't like snow very much... To be precise, what he doesn't like is winter, because the cold outside means that the room must be warm, and an environment that is too warm will not only affect the progress of certain researches , will also make people feel a kind of inertia.

 …

"You want to make your own chocolate?"

The two were walking on the way to the shopping street.

Apparently, a certain loli misread 'buy cocoa powder' as 'make your own cocoa power'.

"Buy and drink."

As soon as Ye Geng finished speaking, seeing that Hui Yuanai still had an unbelieving expression, he didn't continue to explain.

The gloomy sky and the growing snow did not dampen the girls' shopping enthusiasm at all.

9:00 am.

Even though it was the time when the store just opened for business, the chocolate shop, which was not considered prosperous in the past, was now full of people.

A diamond is forever, and one piece will last forever; a man can only customize one piece in his lifetime... For some reason, these two sentences flashed through Ye Gengyi's mind subconsciously.

"Eh? Gengyi brother!"

At this time, a few familiar figures walked towards him.

Mori Ran, Suzuki Sonoko, the trio of young detectives, and...Conan...

(?_?)...Can you wait until you finish buying cocoa powder and then appear...

His gaze scanned both sides of the street and the crowd in the glass window, but he didn't know who would be the lucky one to receive the invitation letter from the God of Death today.

"Brother Geng, Xiao Ai!"

Three children surrounded him chattering.

We finished greeting each other.

Sure enough, Suzuki Sonoko approached with a gossip expression on his face, and said:

"Hey, Brother Gengyi, White Day is a day when girls give boys chocolates. Are you waiting for someone when you go out at this time?"

"Wait for you..." Ye Gengyi said.

ah? !

Everyone was shocked.

Suzuki Sonoko was also a little flustered.

"Aren't you here to buy cocoa powder?" Hui Yuanai held his head up, ruthlessly tearing him down.

"Well, yes." Ye Gengyi said.

Hello! To actually admit it so simply...these people felt as if ten thousand slots were stuck in their hearts, and they wanted to vomit but couldn't vomit.

There was a moment of silence.

Suzuki Sonoko said helplessly, "Brother Genichi, you won."

She admitted that her skills were not enough, and even teased people of Fudo Ye Gengyi's level.

Mao Lilan said that she has learned new knowledge. For example, next time Yuanzi makes fun of herself, she will use Kyogoku to retaliate against her!

Ye Geng nodded and asked, "Are you all here to buy chocolate?"

"No! I still have Xiaolan planning to buy the raw materials and go back and make them myself!" Suzuki Sonoko vowed: "After all, that will make the recipient of the chocolate feel full of sincerity!"

"oh."

Ye Geng nodded, and watched the two girls go to the bookstore to catch up on knowledge.

On the other hand, I continued to line up, preparing to buy 'cocoa powder without sincerity'... After all, it would be too troublesome to plant directly from the cocoa tree.

"Oh, what about Valentine's Day, it's really boring."

Conan changed out of his small blue suit, which was rare, and at this moment he was resting his head on his arm, telling the truth: "I think everyone has been brainwashed by those who buy chocolate..."

"But, the person who receives the gift will be very happy~" Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya objected.

"Yes, yes, chocolate is delicious!" Yuan Tai, who was on the side, also wiped the drool from the corner of his mouth.

It's so delicious, Xiaolan clearly said that she would try to make it at noon, but you guys found it in the morning... Conan complained silently.

"Conan," the two noticed his expression, and said suspiciously, "Isn't it because no one gave you a gift, and that's why you feel dissatisfied?"

"Hehe..." A certain detective continued to laugh...even if there is one, it's just ordinary giri chocolate, what's there to be happy about.

"Edogawa is right. Love games where you give chocolates to your loved ones on such days are probably only popular here," Haibara Ai said nonchalantly, "Actually, the origin of Valentine's Day is It was related to a priest who was tortured and finally executed..."

"The Roman Empire was declining due to the decay of the ruling class. In order to maintain the rule, the aristocratic class at that time arrested the rebellious people and Christians."

Ye Gengyi added:

"Valentin is the name of the priest. It is said that after he was imprisoned, he had an affair with the warden's daughter. Before his execution, he left a suicide note, which contained his frankness and deep love for the warden's daughter. Love, after being sentenced to death, in order to commemorate this love, Christians set that day...it should be February 14th in 269 AD as Valentine's Day."

He paused, looked at the children who were dumbfounded, and continued: "It's really worthy of saying that it's Blood Valentine's Day."

The festive atmosphere disappeared, as if it fit the snowy scene, and the few people only felt a little cold.

Hey, you two are here to mess things up...Conan squinted at them.

"This... this..."

At this time, Ayumi Yoshida~lightnovelpub.net~ is the little girl whose fairy tale dream was shattered, and said with a slightly crying voice:

"My mother told me that on Valentine's Day, girls can use chocolate to enhance their courage and leave good memories, so chocolate tastes bitter and sweet..."

"Oh, then there is a high probability that you were deceived..."

"Ahem!"

Hui Yuanai suddenly raised his foot and stomped down hard. Although he failed to hit the target, he still prevented someone from continuing to torture the little girl's innocence.

"Forget it, let's go back." Ye Gengyi said.

Eh?

Everyone was startled.

Just after Hui Yuan Ai wondered if this guy's appetite was affected by the story, Ye Gengyi pointed to the 'sold out' sign and said, "Cocoa powder, sold out."
