Being stared at by his mother angrily, Conan couldn't help shrinking his neck, and accidentally saw Dr. Ali behind the cabinet in the distance. The other party was facing him at the moment and made a 'V' with his right index finger and middle finger .
Conan is so helpless, although Dr. Ali will inform his parents, he already knew about it, but what makes him wonder is that Dr. Ali did not remind him when his mother came back, and even made a "big show"... .
"Xiaoxinyi~~~"
After his distraction met his mother's sharp gaze, Conan quickly said with a dry smile, "Ah, ah haha... By the way, mom, where's dad? Didn't you come back with dad?"
"...Oh, you said Yusaku, he has something to do, let's not talk about him, Shinichi, what are you going to do now?"
"It wasn't a quarrel, was it?"
"It's none of your business, anyway, what are you going to do."
Conan didn't really want to take care of his parents' affairs, he just said it casually just now, after all, he had never seen his parents quarrel.
Hmm, the couple who respect each other like guests usually speak politely, so how could they quarrel.
"This..." After thinking about it, Conan finally said, "I don't know what to do now."
"Huh? You don't know?" You Xizi sat on the sofa, looking at this son who had always been very assertive, even self-righteous, in a strange way.
"Dr. Ali told you about my situation, right?" Conan asked back.
"Yeah, but it's really amazing that there is such a medicine that makes people smaller..." Yuxiko said, her eyes became brighter.
"Mom, don't think about it!" Conan is very clear about his mother's character, so he said quickly, "I was not completely unconscious before being drugged, and I vaguely heard the conversations of those men in black. Drugs are originally poisons used to kill people silently!
In short, it is highly poisonous, I was lucky to become like this, you can use your brain! "
"Okay, okay, I see. Let's continue the topic just now, what do you mean you don't know what to do?"
His mother's obvious perfunctory attitude made Conan very helpless, but he also knew that he would not be able to persuade his wayward mother for a while, so he secretly decided to remind her more in the future.
Immediately, Conan got down to business, "The main reason is that the men in black hide too deeply. I have tried various methods but failed to find any traces of them. What's more important is that when the other party' drugged, they will die." In the cognition of ', the normal development should be that the headlines of major newspapers in Tokyo will appear on the headlines of the next day. News similar to 'The famous high school detective died violently on the street'. After all, I still have some reputation as 'Kudo Shinichi', but In the absence of any of these, the other party showed no sign of taking any action.
I have arranged a lot of things at home, but now, it has been so long, but no one has visited.
In this regard, I can only make two inferences for the time being. One is that the other party directly ignored me, a dispensable outsider, and those men in black may not be some mysterious and powerful criminal organization.As for the poison, it might not belong to those men in black, who were just one of the users.
The second is that the other party has actually started to act a long time ago, but I didn't notice it at all.
If it's the former, then everything is easy to handle, at least my current situation is not so dangerous.If it's the latter, then I really don't know what to do. "
As he spoke, Conan sighed helplessly.
"In short, you haven't figured out who your opponent is until now? You're so weak~~"
Yukiko's sudden words made Conan feel very hurt.
"Mother..."
"Hey~~" You Xizi also realized that what she said was a bit too much, so she quickly pretended to be cute.
"Hey..." Conan could only let out a long sigh.
"Well~ Xiaoxinyi, don't sigh, anyway, as long as you are safe and sound now." You Xizi thought for a while, but suddenly said, "By the way, Xiaoxinyi, you are looking around like this. Going down is not a solution, maybe you should let go of your strange self-esteem and rely on others, how about it?"
Conan paused, then finally shook his head.
"I said Shinichi, you..."
Yukiko was about to give a lecture, but Conan said, "It has nothing to do with self-esteem, but with daring."
"Don't dare?" You Xizi and Dr. A Li who was serving tea were both stunned.
Seeing them like this, Conan explained with a wry smile, "If it was before, I would definitely say something like trying to solve it with my own efforts. It's just that after this kind of thing happened, I also thought a lot, Especially the words of Uncle Maori made me pay attention to the issue of human nature..."
"gross profit?!"
Yukiko suddenly raised her voice, which surprised both Conan and Dr. Ari.
"Ah, ah, haha, go ahead, Xiaoxinyi, go ahead. Ha, haha..."
Conan glanced at it casually, but didn't delve into it. He had long been used to his mother's jumping temper.
"In short, I dare not ask for help, because I think few people can resist the temptation of 'rejuvenating'. Once my situation is known to outsiders, there is a high probability that I will not be able to live in peace for the rest of my life. Just like mom, you just didn't. ..Huh? Mom, did you do it on purpose just now?" As he spoke, Conan was a little stunned.
Seeing Conan's reaction, both Yukiko and Dr. Ari couldn't help but smile in relief.
You Xizi even said, "If you really grow up, even without me, Shinichi can live a good life alone. This way I can rest assured..."
"Hey, mom, what are you doing?"
Conan was a little anxious, but Yukiko's expression seemed to be that important people don't have to worry about it anymore, and they can 'go' with peace of mind.
Not to mention Conan, Dr. Ali was also stunned, and looked over worriedly.
"What's the trouble? Of course I'm pursuing my own happiness~ The oil bottle is gone, youth and passion are beckoning to me!" After Yuxizi said, her face changed in seconds, from 'heart without love' to 'fighting spirit' in an instant .
Conan: "..."
Dr. Li: "..."
At this moment, Dr. A Li's head was full of black lines, and he didn't know what to say.
And Conan is a bit 'unlovely'.
——How could there be such a mother...
"Hey..." Sighing again, Conan ignored his mother's 'burning' appearance and said, "The only ones I can rely on now are you and my father. As for other people, I don't dare to seek help..."
"Xiaoxinyi, I can ask you... Uncle Maoli for help. With the relationship between our two families, your Uncle Maoli is absolutely trustworthy. Besides, Kogoro used to be a criminal policeman, and has worked in the detective industry for nearly ten years. In Tokyo, black and white contacts are not bad, maybe Kogoro has information about those men in black?" As Yukiko was talking, there was a smile on his face that Conan couldn't understand at all.
Conan didn't bother with that smile, but frowned and said, "This...not good, if it's my second judgment, then this is tantamount to bringing danger to Uncle Maori and his family..."
"It's okay, Xiaoxinyi, you were probably deceived by Kogoro's decadent side, and thus underestimated Kogoro's ability. Hehe, Kogoro really wants to make a move, let alone a criminal organization, it's C. IA Headquarters... Well, in short, your Uncle Maori is very powerful, and he won't be afraid of these troubles, as long as he nods, he will be fine."
"I really don't know where your inexplicable self-confidence comes from, Mom, Uncle Maori obviously..." Conan rolled his eyes, and while complaining, he suddenly remembered something, and then said suddenly, "So it's like this, If Uncle Maori was already very powerful, then his recent changes can be explained, maybe he has been decadent enough, let's get back on his feet."
"Huh? Changes? Has Kogoro changed recently?" Yukiko asked hastily.
"There are some, but I can't tell clearly, after all, I have relatively little contact with Uncle Maori."
"Then what did you say?"
"I said, Mom, why are you so nervous, Uncle Mori?" Conan was puzzled, and looked at Yukiko with some puzzlement.
"Uh... this, it's not an old classmate for many years, and it's normal to care about it." You Xizi's face froze slightly, but in an instant, her expression turned into a memory with a trace of nostalgia, as if reminiscing about the green years of the past, "Besides, Xiao Xinyi's safety rests entirely on Kogoro. How could I not care about Kogoro's situation?"
"Is that so..." Conan didn't think much about it, he also vaguely remembered that his mother mentioned that she and the Maori couple were high school classmates and had a good relationship. "Actually, it's nothing. It's just that Uncle Maori's behavior has become completely different from what I remembered recently. It's not like I haven't been to Xiaolan's house before I became younger. Uncle Maori at that time was simply a standard Heisei frustrated middle-aged man. Man, he is a downright decadent uncle, just..."
"Boom!!"
"Hey! Mom, what are you doing?!"
Suddenly, his mother punched his head heavily, and Conan burst into tears of pain.
"Hmph, you are not allowed, um, you are not allowed to be so rude, you are an elder, you must have the most basic manners." You Xizi pouted her little nose and said angrily.
Chapter 340 Single Mission - Interweaving
"Even if I made a slip of the tongue, mom, you're too harsh... Really..."
He rubbed his head, seeing that he didn't take off the bag, Conan also knew that his mother had kept her hand, so he just complained.
"Anyway, you are not allowed to be rude. You continue to talk." You Xizi raised her fist, which seemed to mean that if she dared to do it again, she would not be polite.
"Yes, yes, yes." What else could Conan do, he had no choice but to respond, and said hastily, "It's just that the old man's decadence has been swept away recently, and he looks calm and wise, and even his image has changed drastically, making him look younger and younger. By the way, I heard from Xiaolan that Uncle Maori is not very interested in the commission of detectives recently, and has a tendency to change careers. This will take down the Polo Coffee Shop downstairs, although "Maori Detective Agency" The signboard has not been put away, but I think there is a high probability that Uncle Mori will be a coffee shop owner in the future, and commissioning detectives as a sideline, or even a hobby."
"Xinyi, you said that Kogoro took back the right to manage the coffee shop on the first floor of his house and became his own boss?" Yukiko asked with bright eyes, full of expectation.
"Well, yes, that's what Xiaolan said, it must be true."
Hearing what Conan said, Yukiko smiled happily and couldn't help muttering, "You still remember..."
"Mother?"
"Ah, it's nothing, by the way, from what you said just now, you often talk to Xiaolan on the phone? This situation has not stopped yet?" You Xizi seemed to remember something, and her face gradually became a little gloomy.
"Oh, it's not very often. I just give a phone call once in a while to make sure I'm safe. Of course, I use a voice changer made by a doctor. Xiaolan won't notice it. Mom doesn't have to worry about my situation being exposed."
"Really..." You Xizi frowned, wanting to say something, but didn't know how to say it.
"Mom, don't worry. So far, the only ones who know my identity are you, Mom. I've been very careful..." Conan said disapprovingly.
"Boom!!"
"Hey, it hurts!!! Mom, what are you doing?! It hurts so much!"
Yukiko got angry, and after hitting Conan's head hard, she said sharply, "You still say you are careful?! The behavior of your young detective team that often makes headlines in newspapers is what you call 'careful'? !"
"Uh..." Conan's expression froze, how could his mother, who has been away from China all year round, know...
Conan suddenly looked at Dr. Ali who was not far away, and Dr. Ali turned his face away and looked at the vase in the distance. His 'guilty' appearance made Conan understand-the enemy is inside!
"That...Mom, I'm not..."
"There's no need to explain. It must be that when you encounter a case, you get hotheaded and plunge your head into it."
"Uh...this...that..." Conan didn't know how to explain.
"Okay, I can't go on like this anymore, I'll take you to Kogoro tomorrow, and let Kogoro help you solve this trouble, otherwise something really happens one day, how can I explain to him..."
"It's as if Dad doesn't know about my situation. Besides, Mom, is Uncle Mao Li really as powerful as you say? This matter can't be careless." Conan rubbed his head and frowned. The painful lump on his head made him frown, as did the entanglement in his heart.
He was debating whether to reveal the matter to Uncle Mao Li. After all, Uncle Mao Li knew about it, so it is very likely that Xiaolan would also know about it. At that time, he would definitely be... ridiculed to death!
Moreover, it is very likely to be beaten!
After all, he used a voice changer when talking on the phone with Xiaolan during this period of time, which is equivalent to cheating, and what Xiaolan hates most is cheating...
Just thinking of Xiaolan's 'anti-humanity' fighting power that could break a concrete utility pole with one punch, he couldn't help but shiver.
You Xizi frowned, and finally said, "Anyway, it's settled like this, we'll be there tomorrow morning. No objection is allowed, or I'll beat you up!"
"Uh...Okay." Seeing his mother lighting up her tender white fist again, Conan could only nod.
"Hmph, that's good." After Yuxizi smiled with satisfaction, she looked at Dr. Ali who had been acting as the background, and said, "Doctor, I will only disturb you here tonight. After all, I am I came back secretly, so it’s not good to go back to Kudo’s mansion.”
"No problem, Yukiko, your room has already been prepared."
"Thank you so much."
"You're welcome, by the way, the one prepared for you is the one you used for makeup earlier."
"Oh, then I'll..."
"You Xizi, you can do whatever you want."
"it is good."
After seeing his mother dragging the suitcase to the guest room, Conan couldn't help but frowned and muttered, "Is it true that Uncle Mao Li has so much energy worthy of his mother's superstition?"
Dr. Ali, who did not leave, said, "Shinichi, it's not surprising that Yukiko is so superstitious about Morisan."
"Eh? Could it be that Uncle Maori was really powerful when he was young?"
"I don't know about this, but Yusaku once sighed, saying that even if you are against the entire neon police and gangsters, you can live longer than against Morisan. Well, although I don't know What does this mean, but it is certain that Yusaku has always admired Morisan very much. If you think about it, Morisan really has some amazing skills. It is normal for Kiko to be superstitious for someone who can make Yusaku admire like this .”
"Dad would say such exaggerated metaphors? Doctor, do you remember correctly?" Conan had an unbelievable expression on his face.
"Yeah, I remember correctly. After all, You are very rigorous as a person. It is incredible that you can use such an exaggerated metaphor and still look serious, so I am deeply impressed."
"That's it... It seems that this Uncle Maori is really not simple... Well, tomorrow, with the help of my mother, I will explore the background of this mysterious uncle..."
"Xinyi, you'd better not go too far. Although Maori-san and Yukiko are old classmates, for Yukiko's sake, they probably won't be too strict, but if it's too rude, Maori-san probably won't do it. Yukiko It will take the initiative to make you taller, taller...haha..."
"Doctor..." Conan rolled his eyes. Although the lump on his head disappeared, it still hurt a little.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry... Hey, just in time, I came up with an idea, I'll write it down first, when Ayumi and the others come over to play, I will test them again." Dr. Ali said, and hurried to the office to find paper and paper. The pen records go.
As soon as Dr. Ali mentioned Ayumi and other little ghosts, Conan felt a pain in the head, and even had a little hope in his heart, hoping that Uncle Maori was really so powerful and could solve his problem so that he could get away from that damned Primary school life...
......
The next morning, in the living room on the third floor of the Mori office.
When Nangong Xiao woke up, Xiaolan was already preparing breakfast in the kitchen.
Fei Yingli was wearing Xiaolan's pajamas and sitting on the sofa in the living room reading a newspaper.
"Good morning." Nangong Xiao greeted out of politeness, then strolled towards the bathroom.
"Morning." After Feiying responded, she also looked at Nangong Xiao, watching Nangong Xiao's back strolling into the bathroom, a comfortable smile spread across her face unconsciously.
——How long has it been, this morning, which is so ordinary that it can no longer be ordinary, finally came back...
