Chapter 48 Death is Coming ==

Ever since Meisha came to live, inexplicably, Kogoro Mori's business has deteriorated.

No one came to see him, and there was nothing for a whole month.

"Why..." Mori Kogoro murmured while watching Yoko Okino on TV.He is as famous as before, why is no one looking for him?I haven't eaten meat for half a month, and I'm so hungry that even Ms. Yoko is not so beautiful~

"What did you do?" Conan asked quietly.

"I promise, I didn't do this." Meisha shrugged: "You know, it's not just the reputation of being a detective, but also the reputation I mentioned."

The corner of Conan's mouth twitched, where is the reputation of a dead person?

Meisha covered her lips with her hand: "Hehe, there's no other way. It was originally a case of searching for someone or having an affair, but you went with it, and turned it into a murder case. If it were me, I wouldn't come to the door easily. "

"Tch, it's not my fault, it's just a coincidence." Conan still said, "If my uncle didn't entrust me, I have nothing to do here. I just learn from these elementary school students every day... Damn it! Cloaked People Organization, I must find them and catch them all!"

"Wouldn't it be better to kill him cleanly?" Meisha said lightly.

"Pfft—" Conan sprayed directly.

"Ah, Conan, how could you be so rude!" Xiaolan hurried over, punched Conan on the head, and then wiped the table with a blushing smile at Meisha: "I'm really sorry, Miss Meisha, this child is too naughty."

"It's okay, kid, everything is cute." Meisha rubbed Conan's head vigorously, and said softly: "Lan, I have already told you, don't always be so polite to me, you are already the same We shared the bed."

Xiaolan's face turned even redder, and after a low hum, she hurried away with the rag.

"You..." Conan's expression was really not good.

"It was a joke just now, you can't even tell?" Meisha despised him.

"I'm not talking about this... This is also a problem. In the future, don't make such jokes... I mean Xiaolan, why are you teasing her when you have nothing to do?"

"Because it's fun. You're such a nice woman, kind-hearted and intuitive. Although I don't know my identity, I can sense the difference in my aura."

"Aura? You mean the part of you that isn't human—"

"Bang!" Meisha punched him again, hitting the same place: "Even if you are a child now, I'm still not happy with your tone!"

The two of them messed around for a while, Xiaolan suddenly opened the door and came in, happily said: "Meisha, Conan, Dad has a business, come out and have a look!"

Conan immediately jumped off the sofa, but Meisha didn't move.

"Aren't you going?"

"You go first, I have to clean up, look at what we eat and drink, that guy Xisuke doesn't know how to clean up the house."

"No wonder you two are looking for someone else to live with, it's really a problem." Conan whispered, not daring her to hear.Just kidding, these two women are so tough, and I don't get nervous, are you looking for abuse?

When Meisha arrived late, the client had already left, and Kogoro Mori was flipping through a pile of documents.

"What case?" Meisha leaned over and took a photo to look at: "Is it a dead body? Uh... Poisoned?"

"Meisha, can you tell? It is indeed poisoning, and I read the information, how can I say that it is a suicide, the son of this family just said that his father was murdered by his stepmother, let me investigate." Mao Li Kogoro lost interest : "I didn't want to continue, but he gave a lot of money. He gave 100 million at the beginning, and said that if this matter is resolved, he can pay three times more."

"A total of 400 million, which can be eaten for a long time." Meisha pulled twice and took out two pieces of paper: "Take a look at this, it should be much more reliable than the ones in your hand."

Mori Kogoro looked clueless, but Conan's eyes lit up on the sofa behind him.

Those few pieces of paper were not the cause of death, but the post-mortem investigation of the corpse. There were indeed some clues in it, which were much more useful than the death photos.

After seeing the end from beginning to end——

"Uncle, the money has been collected anyway, let's go and have a look? You can eat there tonight."

"Eat there?" Mori Kogoro imagined mansions, maids, delicacies...

"Okay, just eat over there!"

If you don't leave, you don't know. If you leave, you will be shocked.

Originally, he only brought his daughter and that brat with him to deal with the case, but now with Meisa and Urahara Kisuke, he suddenly became a big gang, quite majestic.

Mori Kogoro was troubled: "This doesn't seem good. I'm going to handle the case. If I drag my family around like this, people will look down on me. Why don't you rely on yourself, Mr. Urahara?"

He really doesn't like to be seen... Kisuke Urahara looked at Meisha sadly, and immediately smiled at Kogoro Mori: "Of course not, of course not, how can you say that you are dragging your family? I am Mr. Mori's." Assistant 'oh."

"Assistant? Then what do you know?" Although the word assistant made Maori feel a little flustered, he was very picky.

"Well, there are so many things to know, and I can't tell clearly in a while." Kisuke Urahara pushed them out: "Let's go first, and talk while walking..."

Xiaolan hesitated and tugged at the corner of her eyebrow gauze: "Mr. Urahara is real...or is it just for eating and drinking?"

"Eating and drinking is for sure. Xisuke knows a lot, but not much can be used in handling cases."

"For example?" Conan was also a little curious.

"For example, the research on various substances, especially medicines, and he also has profound attainments in kendo."

Conan's eyes widened in surprise. That uncle who looks very similar to Uncle Kogoro has such a great ability?

"You can't judge by appearance, just look at Mr. Mori, you don't know that he is a judo master, look at Xiaolan, you can't tell that she is so good at karate." Meisha looked at the back of Kisuke who was walking side by side with Kogoro, and said softly : "Xizhu is just hiding himself too deeply. In fact, he is better than most people in this world."

Kisuke in front of him paused for a while, his voice was still so steady, it was a habit he had cultivated for many years.

As gods of death, each of them seems to have its own mask.He, Yoruichi, Byakuya, the captain, even Mako Hirako, Aizen Soyousuke...

Whether they can see through each other or not, they always hide in their hearts and act according to their own thoughts.

So when people like Mei Sha appear, they are either intoxicating or rebellious.

In my own words, it has always been the latter, right?

Even now, when I hear her penetrating words, I still feel uncomfortable.

But it was useless, this woman still went her own way, and still didn't care about anyone's eyes, no matter how seriously she was injured.

"It's enviable." He said suddenly.With such a character, he would never look back like he was destroying, and he couldn't do it himself.

"Envy? In fact, there is no need to be envious. This is talent." Kogoro said rather stinkingly: "For me, this kind of trivial matter of case-handling and reasoning does not require much thought at all."

"That's right, Detective-sama." Urahara Kisuke's small fan blocked the expression on his face, and also blocked his glance backwards.

Maybe this is an opportunity for me?Try to get to know her, really get to know her.

This rich man, Conan, has seen it in the newspapers. They made their fortune in the marine industry. Half of the seafood industry and tourism in eastern Japan are related to them.

There is a couple in their family, the husband is 57 years old, and the wife is only 39 years old. They got married five years ago.

There are two sons and one daughter under his knees. The eldest son helps his father manage the company all the year round. He only comes back after a few months and leaves in a hurry after staying for a few days. The younger son is studying for a Ph. No one has a wife.As for the daughter, although she is the youngest, she is married, the son of her father's best friend, and her life is very happy.

In such a happy and harmonious family, the only strange voice seems to be their stepmother—Shui Hui early spring.

Mother passed away early, in fact, they didn't like their father's reunion very much, but since father likes it himself, and they each have their own things and can't accompany old father all day long, there is nothing wrong with someone who can serve father.

"That's right." Kogoro stroked his chin: "In that case, the relationship between the three children and stepmother should be okay, right?"

"Yes." The housekeeper nodded: "But I don't know why, as time goes by, the relationship between the second young master, the third young lady and his wife has become worse and worse. The eldest young master is fine, after all, he is away all year round."

"Then Mr. Domoto is dead? Whose inheritance is it?" Conan asked suddenly.

"This master has never mentioned it, and he always keeps it secret. But I think, maybe the eldest young master, the second young master, and the third young lady each have a share? The master always treats children equally. Here, please follow me."

"Hey? If you say that, that lady is not bad at all!" Conan exclaimed.

"Hee hee..." A low laugh came from behind, obviously Meisha was laughing at him for pretending to be tender.

"It's true that Madam doesn't have one, and Madam doesn't need it either." The housekeeper frowned and said, "Actually, I think the Second Young Master and Third Miss really misunderstood Madam on this point. Madam never only asks about the company's affairs, and doesn't care how much the master gives her." money, or how many things to buy for her, Madam is a very quiet person, living her life in peace and contentment, she definitely did not marry the master for the sake of the master's property."

Kogoro nodded again and again: "Such a woman is good, such a woman is good."

Xiaolan couldn't understand it, and said coldly: "It's a pity that someone obviously has such a good woman, but he still drives her away."

Xiao Wulang is at a loss for words, since getting along with Meisha, Xiaolan's tongue has become more and more vicious, and she has become less and less respectful towards herself.It's strange, Meisha is obviously good, how did you teach the child... No, no, this must not be taught by Meisha, maybe it was led by Kisuke Urahara.

After being stared at inexplicably, Urahara Kisuke pressed his hat.Well, he didn't do anything annoying, did he?

Meisha walked to his side: "Let's make a bet, murder is certain, who do you think killed the owner of this house?"

"Is there a way to gamble on this? If it is now, it can only rely on luck."

"It's just luck. Whether it's you or me, if you really want to find the murderer, there are too many ways. How boring."

"People in this world seem to value human life very much, it's not about playing." Kisuke Urahara said seriously.

Meisha was a little surprised: "Abiding by the rules of this world when you come to a world, make yourself like a person in this world...you will do such a troublesome thing? It surprises me, Xisuke."

"It's okay, although I've always been willful..." Kisuke Urahara's eyes flickered: "I thought you would expect me to do this."

"I really know how to joke, so when I'm with people who don't understand me, there will always be misunderstandings." Meisha shrugged: "Xizhu, please remember that for me, freedom is the most important thing, and I have compromised a lot for the sake of responsibility." Things, sacrificed a lot of things, the only thing left is this free body and mind. I can do whatever I want, not only for me, but also for the people around me—you’d better keep this in mind.”

"...Hi Yi~ I understand." Urahara Kisuke pressed his hat and smiled.

How should I say it?He did not understand, their king.But no matter how you say it, it is indeed not a faint king, nor is it a dictatorial king, which is gratifying enough.

"You're really smart." Conan said suddenly, after Kisuke went to act as an assistant.

"Where do you start with this, Little Conan? I didn't do anything, and what I said was the truth."

Conan shook his head, some things were not clear, and he couldn't explain it clearly, but it was roughly like that, with some deceptive taste in it.Very light, very natural, if it is not clear to the bystanders, it is difficult to detect by yourself.

"Oh, it's very good, little Conan, you can see through a lot of things." Meisha hugged him up: "How should I put it? People get along with each other patiently, understand each other, and then live together harmoniously...and Not to my liking. It's a solid relationship, but it's so troublesome it's giving me a headache."

"So you are demagoguery, even deceitful?"

"Well, if I only admit the former, do you believe it or not?"

"What's the meaning?"

"It's just that my reality, in the eyes of others, is more like falsehood."

[Truth is falsehood], this sentence sounds strange at first glance, but when you taste it carefully, it suddenly makes people feel bitter.So Conan remained silent, and spent a long time with Meisha, no matter her style or habits, once she got to know her deeply, it would always make people feel this way, she must have experienced a lot, whether it was sad or moving, so it made me feel sad. Heartache.

Noticing that he was considerate and stopped asking, Meisha looked down at him, then raised her head to look at Xiaolan in front of her.

There may be such benefits in the world of ordinary people. Children are so cute, even if they have a little scheming, there is no need to worry. They can be trusted without fear of betrayal.

"Hello, detectives." A pale girl came down the stairs: "My name is Domoto Yuka, and you are here to investigate the cause of father's death?"

"Yes, Ms. Domoto." Kogoro said seriously, "Although today is a bit abrupt, I hope you don't take offense."

"It's okay, I should say thank you, and I'll trouble you." Domoto Yuka suddenly bowed deeply, and two tears fell to the ground: "Please, Detective Maori, we must find the murderer who killed my father!"

"Okay, okay, I will try my best to find out the truth, don't cry!" Kogoro hated the girl's tears the most.

"It's really pity for the fragrance and the jade, no wonder Xiaolan's mother can't stay, and the pity for the fragrance and the jade is too much."

"Maybe there is another reason, that uncle is too out of shape." Conan murmured: "But if there is something, it is still reliable, and the brain can be very bright if someone guides it. I mean occasionally."

"So you acted as the guide?" Meisha let go of him: "Go, why don't you contact those people, how can you get it done just by Kogoro?"

Conan jumped down and gave her a strange look: "I know you must be quite young, but please use your honorific name, don't you know that you look similar to Xiaolan?"

Meisha crossed her arms and responded to him: "Whenever you start calling Xiaolan sister in private, I will remember to use honorifics to address those who 'look' older than me."
