Chapter 246 I have a way
"It seems it's time for me to teach you guys what public morality is."
Asakawa Yu said calmly, the soccer ball in his hand beginning to shrivel.
The horrifying scene filled the children with terror, and they all began to back away.
Asakawa Yu slowly approached, and the children finally began to feel scared, a scene that drew the attention of everyone present.
Hahaha! Well done! These brats are driving me crazy!
[As expected of our Asakawa, she's far more capable than that incompetent adult!]
[You can't say that, Mori can be quite reliable sometimes.]
"Sir, could you please wait a moment? I'll handle this."
Just then, a voice called out to Asakawa Yu.
He looked back and saw a man in a black suit with a serious expression slowly walking towards him.
"You are……"
"Let me introduce myself. My name is Tadahiro Kenmura, and I am the head of research and development for Cocoon. As for what just happened, I will give you an answer."
Looking at the man in front of her, Asakawa Yu suddenly remembered that this was Hiroki's biological father from the original drama, and also the person in charge of the research and development of Cocoon.
He was an upright man, but unfortunately, he was later murdered after discovering Chairman Sindora's secret.
But at least for now, this person still has a lot of influence.
Asakawa Yu only wanted to teach these kids a lesson, and now it seems they're all terrified. The rest is up to this guy to handle.
"Then I'll have to trouble you, Mr. Kenmura."
After saying that, Asakawa Yu handed the deflated soccer ball to Kenmura, and then moved towards where Akemi and the others were standing.
As for what Kenmura said to the group of children, he had no idea. He only knew that after listening, the children took the deflated soccer ball and walked in other directions from the venue.
"The thought that these children will grow up to inherit their parents' businesses and become future leaders is truly despairing."
Conan, who had been standing silently to the side, couldn't help but speak, and Ai Haibara, who was standing next to him, nodded in agreement.
"I feel the same way, but right now I think it would be better to worry about the adult who stepped forward first, don't you think?"
After saying that, Ai Haibara turned her head and glanced at Asakawa Yu, who was talking to Akemi. He looked completely unconcerned, as if he were talking about something extremely ordinary.
"Aren't you afraid they'll go to their parents and complain?" Ai Haibara asked. Although she seemed indifferent to Asakawa Yu on the surface, she couldn't help but care.
Just like she said, the parents of those children are all people who could cause social unrest if they were kicked around a couple of times. If they were to be harmed because of something so trivial...
As Asakawa Yu's girlfriend, Miyano Akemi and her younger sister actually shared similar thoughts, and she also looked worried at this moment.
"That's what I'm saying, boss, what if later..."
Akemi began to whisper something in Asakawa Yu's ear, but it was clear that Asakawa Yu didn't take them seriously.
If people really take their anger out on themselves because of this, then Japan is truly finished.
However, if those 'people' really turn their attention to him and his family, he wouldn't mind doing something similar with the distillery.
Thinking of this, Asakawa Yu gave Akemi a reassuring smile, "It's okay, I believe those children's parents aren't such petty people, otherwise they wouldn't be in this position."
"I see... Well, since you've said so, I won't think about it anymore."
At that moment, Akemi suddenly remembered that Asakawa Yu had just given her younger sister a badge to participate in the game, so she smiled and said to Haibara Ai:
"By the way, Ai, since the boss just gave you that cocoon badge, do you want to go up and try it out later?"
She could tell that her younger sister was quite interested in this so-called cocoon.
"Hehe, to be honest, this surprise was really unexpected, and it's a gift I'm quite satisfied with, but..."
Halfway through her sentence, Ai Haibara turned to look at Ayumi and the others standing behind her, a slight smile appearing on her lips, and said:
"Although I really want to go, I can't go and have fun by myself."
"Haibara-san!"
"But if you do that, you won't be able to play!"
"That's right! Those are cocoons!"
Seeing that Ai Haibara was prepared to give up her chance to participate in the game to accompany them, Ayumi and the others were deeply moved, but still felt it was a waste for Ai Haibara.
"It's okay, it's just a game. It's not like we won't be able to play it again in the future." Ai Haibara played with the badge in her hand, a slight smile on her lips.
However, Ayumi and the others felt that Ai Haibara was still interested in the game.
So the group prepared to continue persuading Ai Haibara, but at that moment, Yu Asakawa walked over.
"Actually, it's not that there's no way."
Asakawa Yu's words instantly piqued the interest of everyone present.
"What?! Really, Asakawa-nii? Do you mean there's a way to get a few more badges?"
Mitsuhiko asked excitedly. In his opinion, if Asakawa Yu said it was possible, then it wasn't just empty talk, but that there really was a way.
Xiao Lan and the others also pricked up their ears, ready to hear what method Asakawa Yu would come up with.
"It's actually very simple. Let me ask you a question first: what are the things that children like the most right now, or what do you consider the most valuable things?"
When Asakawa asked this question, Genta and the others immediately began to think about it, and even Conan and Ai Haibara showed some interest in it.
"The most valuable thing in a child's eyes..."
Suddenly, Genta seemed to realize something and shouted, "I know! It's eel rice! Right?!"
Upon hearing this, everyone present was speechless, and Xiaolan and Mingmei couldn't help but laugh.
"Genta... that's what you think, isn't it?"
"That's right, it's obvious that this is impossible," Ayumi and Mitsuhiko said helplessly.
"Eh? Is...is that so? Hehe!"
"The most valuable thing... That's right! I think I know what Asakawa-nii-san's method is!"
After saying that, Mitsuhiko rummaged in his pocket for a few moments and pulled out a... card?
"This is it? Can this thing really be exchanged for a badge?" Sonoko looked incredulous.
"Hehe, who can say for sure..."
