Ming Ke: When the villain accidentally mixes into the protagonist group

The next day, the sky was gray, like a cement wall, the sky was dim and bumpy.

Yusaku stood in front of the window holding a cup of coffee, watching the two children go to school, and took a sip.

"I didn't expect Mingyue would agree to go in someone else's place." Yukiko wiped her hands with a towel, walked to the window, and said with a slightly complaining tone, "Shinichi is really something, he actually made such an unreasonable request. I haven't even seen the child Baosheng, how can I help Mingyue with makeup! It's really a headache."

Yusaku looked at Yukiko, "Come to think of it, I do know a man named Shirigata, he's a mystery novelist."

Yukiko shifted her attention to Yusaku and asked curiously, "Hmm? Who is it? It can't be related to this matter."

"Although this surname is not common, I can't say for sure that it is him." Yusaku raised his head and looked at the gray sky. "The novelist wrote very well, but his lifestyle was not very good. When I first became famous, I heard that he had a daughter who ran away from home and her whereabouts are still unknown."

Yukiko tilted her head in confusion, "So it is possible that Princess Hosou is the daughter of the daughter who ran away from home? But why was she abandoned? Or did Princess Hosou's biological mother encounter something and had to abandon her daughter?"

Yusaku shook his head, "I'm not sure about that." He reached out and picked up the latest mystery novel on the table and turned to the last page. "If it is really as I guessed, the mystery will be solved."

"Will it be dangerous for the children to go there?" Yukiko frowned, feeling a little uneasy.

Yusaku smiled slightly, "Didn't they handle the previous poisoning case very well? We should trust him, and Mingyue is not the kind of reckless person. Besides, don't we still have us? Let's go to the hospital to meet that Baosheng Yiji and her adoptive parents."

"Okay." Yukiko changed into warm clothes and looked at the sky. "Yesterday's weather forecast said it might snow today. To be honest, I really want to go to school to listen to their chorus and watch Mingyue play the piano on the stage."

The sky above was a depressing gray, as if night had come early, and a cold wind was howling past.

The campus was bustling with activity. Many parents followed their students to Teitan Junior High School, and the auditorium was full of people.

"Dad, I told you to drink less last night, why didn't you listen?" Maori Ran put her hands on her hips and looked at Maori Kogoro, who was frowning and rubbing his temples with his hands beside her.

"I'm here now, aren't I?" Maori Kogoro adjusted his tie. "It's all because of you chattering all the way here that I'm getting a headache."

Mao Lilan looked at her father with half-moon eyes and said, "Am I giving you a headache because of my noise?!" Then she clenched her fists.

"Uh..." Maori Kogoro looked around, "Is Eri not here yet?"

"Mom suddenly received a call from an important client this morning, so she may not have time to come over." Mao Lilan said dissatisfiedly, "After all, Mom is not like Dad, who has nothing to do every day."

Kogoro Mouri wanted to say something in rebuttal when he suddenly heard a boy greeting Xiaolan.

"Good morning, Maori-san. This is your father, right?" A handsome boy with thick eyebrows and big eyes and a ponytail walked towards Maori Ran.

"Who are you?" Kogoro Mouri stared at the heroic young man in front of him with wide eyes.

"Dad, this is Aoi Jabami from Class A. He just transferred here not long ago." Mao Lilan introduced the handsome boy to her father, then turned to look at Aoi Jabami and said with a smile, "My dad is a very good detective."

However, when Jabami Aoi heard the word "detective", her pupils shrank slightly, and then she smiled and greeted Maori Kogoro, and said with regret: "It's a pity that my mother couldn't come because of something, otherwise I would definitely introduce her to you."

When Maori Kogoro heard the heroic boy calling his mother "Mother-sama", he felt a little itchy in his heart. He glanced at Maori Ran beside him and imagined the scene of being called "Father-sama". However, what he saw was his daughter's inquiring eyes. He quickly cleared his throat, put on a stern face, and casually exchanged a few words with the heroic boy.

"Mr. Maori, how do you think about inviting you to soak in the natural hot springs at the villa?" Jabami Aoi looked at Maori Ran.

Mao Lilan thought about how Aoi had told her about this several times before, but because she had made an appointment with Shinichi to watch a movie together on the weekend, she had never given Aoi a clear reply. Now that Shinichi and Mingyue were going to help Yiji, could she agree to let Aoi go to the hot spring? That was natural and she had never experienced it before.

However, Maori Kogoro was shocked and shouted: "My daughter wants to go to a hot spring with a boy?! I won't agree!"

"Dad!" Mao Lilan glared at Kogoro angrily, her cheeks slightly red. She looked around and found that no one was paying attention to them, so she breathed a sigh of relief.

"Uncle Maori, that's not the case. There are girls of the same age traveling with us, and even though it's a natural hot spring, it's not the kind where men and women bathe together." Jabami Aoi looked at Maori Ran and said very considerately, "Is my invitation too presumptuous? If you don't want to, you can refuse me. Don't be embarrassed."

Kogoro Mouri pointed his finger at the tip of his nose and asked, "Can I go with you?" But the scene of many girls soaking in hot springs appeared in his mind.

"Dad!" Mao Lilan frowned, "I was the one who was invited!"

"Can't you invite me too?" Maori Kogoro was not prepared to let his daughter be alone with a boy he didn't know very well. He looked around and asked, "Is Shinichi going?"

Jabami Aoi smiled and refused, "I'm sorry, Uncle Maori, we only invite students of similar age to this event, and there is no one named Shinichi on the invitation list."

"Are there really other girls?" Kogoro Mouri was still a little worried. Although Xiaolan often went out to play with Sonoko and even stayed overnight, this time it was a boy who invited her. As a father, he felt that he should be cautious.

Jabami Aoi said sincerely, "Of course, it's a private hot spring in the manor. There won't be outsiders. It's very safe. Please rest assured, Uncle Maori."

"Dad, I haven't seen the natural hot springs in the mountains yet." Mao Lilan muttered.

Maori Kogoro looked at his daughter, then at the heroic boy, and understood a little, and asked, "What does your family do?"

"Eh?" The sudden question made Jabami Aoi slightly stunned.

"Dad, why are you asking this?" Mao Lilan yelled at Kogoro, "Aoi's family runs a research institute and does research." Then, Mao Lilan looked at Jabami Aoi with an apologetic look on her face, "Sorry, because of dad's job..."

Jabami Aoi looked at Mouri Kogoro with a smile, "It's okay, I can understand. After all, many fathers would think this way, but I do have to admit..." Jabami Aoi turned her head and looked at Mouri Ran gently, "I was attracted to you at first sight when I saw you in the teacher's office." She has a well-proportioned figure, explosive power, and a cute appearance. This kind of girl is what mothers like.
