Kikuemon's residence is a very standard Japanese-style courtyard. A slightly plump woman led the group in.

After sitting down, Maori introduced the children he brought to Kikuemon. Kikuemon also introduced his family, including his daughter-in-law Tsuchiya Mashiko, his apprentices Arita, Seto, and Otani.

Shi Mo Mi was quite puzzled that his daughter-in-law's surname was Tsuchiya, but Kikuemon's was not. But before Shi Mo Mi could ask, Kikuemon explained himself:

"In fact, Kikuemon is just a title. Only the most powerful disciples can take over this title. Now not many people remember my real name "Tsuchiya Mankichi"."

Tsuchiya Mashiko poured them tea and joked: "Calling you 'Kikuemon' is also a compliment."

Mori chatted for a while and said seriously: "I don't know what you want to investigate today?"

Conan and Shi Mo Mi discussed this on the way here. Conan thought it might be a small matter like investigating an affair or looking for something, but Shi Mo Mi disagreed.

Because he really didn't know Kikuemon, after returning home, Shi Mo Mi asked the system to investigate and really found some problems. Recently, many works of Kikuemon are circulating on the market. Although they are all first-class masterpieces, the number is too large.

You have to know that Kikuemon is now 78 years old, a senior citizen. Kiln firing is not a daily trivial matter like eating and drinking. Compared with previous years, there were only a few works a year, and the number of works in the past two years has increased dozens of times.

So Shi Mo Mi thought that Kikuemon should have asked Maori to investigate this matter.

Now that the mystery is revealed, both of them looked at Kikuemon with burning eyes.

Kikuemon also cleared his throat very seriously: "Actually, I asked you to come here to give you some advice!"

Maori was shocked: "Huh?"

Both of them guessed wrong: "Huh?"

"To be honest, your recent reasoning is really disorganized!" Kikuemon aimed his guns at Shi Mo Mi again, "Doctor Shi, your occasional reasoning is still not mature enough!"

Maori's reasoning was all said by Conan, and even when he reasoned with his junior sister, most of it was said by Conan. At this moment, both of them were criticized, and Conan, the initiator, was sweating.

Shi Mo Mi poked Conan who sat up straight: "Did you hear that?"

Kikuemon seemed to want to give examples to the two and continue to criticize, but was interrupted by the smiling Tsuchiya Mashiko.

"Don't pretend, Dad, tell the truth. In fact, you are a fan of Detective Maori's reasoning, right? And Doctor Shi, you also like it. Last time I made a mistake in my notes, you got angry."

Kikuemon's face flushed, but he couldn't say anything to refute. But since he was exposed, he didn't continue to maintain his majestic appearance: "Well, that's the fact. In fact, I asked Detective Maori to come today, and I also wanted to give you one of my works. Pick a work in this room. Although there are not many things in this room, each one is worth at least a million.

"I thought Doctor Shi was very busy, so I didn't invite him. I didn't expect that he came with Detective Maori. Doctor Shi should also pick one. ”

Shi Mo Mi had the system, and he quickly figured out the prices of the works in the room, and deliberately picked the one with the lowest price.

Xiao Lan came to Mao Li: "That's what I said, but it's not good, Dad, you have to be polite."

Then Mao Li looked around, hesitated, and directly chose the cup of tea in front of him.

Shi Mo Mi knew who Xiao Lan inherited her luck from, it was the hidden emperor Mao Li Kogoro!

The price on the cup was one more than the seven-digit works in the room.

Because they received Kikuemon's gift, several people stayed for dinner after visiting Kikuemon and his apprentice's works. Most of the people in the group were adults, and they didn't rest until very late because of the alcohol.

The three minors couldn't drink, and Tsuchiya Mashiko, who had the worst alcohol tolerance, was taken to the room to sleep early because of drunkenness.

The next day, Shi Mo Mi was almost the first to wake up. Although he was at someone else's house, Shi Mo Mi still went out for a run as usual.

Before Shi Mo Mi went out, he strangely saw the photoelectric device representing Tsuchiya Mashiko in the warehouse.

Because it was still early, the faint light of dawn had just illuminated the earth. Shi Mo Mi didn't understand why Tsuchiya Mashiko was in the warehouse.

[Do you have a record of Tsuchiya Mashiko's drinking yesterday? ]

System: [Yes. ]

[Based on that amount, would Tsuchiya Mashiko wake up so early? ]

[According to the data, no. ]

Shi Mo Mi frowned and opened the heavy warehouse door, but did not see Tsuchiya Mashiko at first glance...
