Chapter 657 Karasawa: They all match well
“Is it really okay to just go to Nagano Prefecture like this?” After receiving Karasawa’s approval effortlessly, Mao Lilan, who sent out the invitation, became unsure. , "Don't they all need to apply for something?"
She has not forgotten Karasawa's difficult case - Shinichi has reservations about many things, but when it comes to Karasawa, he must not He would make random jokes, and he would say that Tang Ze's case was not easy to handle, and that the problem was really big.
Inviting Tang Ze to go out to spend the summer together was out of good intentions. She did not want to cause unnecessary trouble to Tang Ze.
"I can't say there's no problem at all..." Thinking of the Zero Team members who were busy working on the Phantom Thieves, Karasawa coughed twice, "Well, it's not a big problem. After Mr. Amuro started working as a detective, he I have a close relationship with the police and he will help me handle it.”
Although there are many flaws in Tangze's speech, it is indeed the truth.
Toru Amuro has a really close relationship with the police, and they will really help him deal with these trivial identity issues.
As for whether I will be beaten by Amuro Toru when I come back, that is a question I need to consider in two days.
"That's it." Recalling the channels and resources Amuro showed in the police when searching for Hattori Heiji, Mao Lilan felt relieved and her tone became lighthearted again, "When it comes to lightness, Izawa, I think of a lot of art, humanities and natural landscapes, I really want to experience them.”
Although he looks unremarkable, Mao Lilan has received an elite education from his childhood. He is also a person with certain artistic qualities. He loves all kinds of cultural and historical landscapes, and it is no problem to go to exhibitions and attend concerts.
This adds an unavoidable evil spirit to the art exhibitions in this world, so much so that Tang Ze's mind has begun to classify them into categories and automatically organize relevant case information.
"Well, that's right..." Tang Ze replied indifferently, and at the same time he sighed sincerely at the various cases he recalled for the first time.
After traveling through time, this was the only thing that troubled him. No matter what the reason was for his friends to travel, they would all become a filter for him where the murder happened in another place. It was difficult to sort out and relax. .
"Yes, you pay little attention to this information." Immediately thinking of Tang Ze's monotonous life for the first eighteen years, Mao Lilan's words became cautious, "It's okay, we are going to have fun. The purpose is to escape the heat and relax a little, so there is no need to make any preparations.”
“If I remember correctly, Karuizawa is indeed inland, right?” Drinking juice. Conan thought thoughtfully, "Why does the uncle put so many pairs of swimming trunks in the suitcase?"
"Huh?" Mao Lilan frowned and became alert instantly, "What kind of swimming trunks, beach trunks?"
"The kind of swimming trunks that are very naughty." I don't know how to describe it. Conan gestured twice, "Colorful, a bit tight..."
It's very suspicious. Could it be that my father suddenly had strange thoughts because he had quarreled with his mother several times?
Hmm, something’s not quite right. It looks like I’m going to ask my mother to give me some subtle hints.
Mao Lilan took out her mobile phone, quickly clicked on Fei Yingli's mailbox, started to send a message, and asked casually: "Have you not gone to see Dr. Ali recently? You haven't seen any new strange inventions. Not going to improve the equipment? ”
"Equipment, equipment, what equipment?" Conan choked and asked stammeringly.
Theoretically, he understands that Xiaolan now knows her identity well. The two of them are just maintaining a tacit understanding of you pretending not to know, and I pretending not to know, but occasionally he hears her mention it so naturally. He still can't get used to topics related to identity.
I really don’t know whether I should say that Xiaolan is too calm, or that she is too impatient...
“Some simple sound-producing devices.” Lifting her eyelids from the mobile phone screen, Mao Lilan used You looked back with a strange look in your knowing eyes, "It would be too suspicious if you disappeared without a trace every time dad solved a case, or suddenly appeared from behind him."
"You , you know it's me..." Conan touched his head twice and felt embarrassed.
His appearance and intervention earned Kogoro Mouri a reputation as a famous detective, and also improved the income situation of the Mouri family. From an objective conclusion, it seems to be a good thing.
However, considering that the starting point of this idea was to use the fame of the famous detective to fish and get information about the black organization, he felt guilty.
If Mouri Kogoro really enters the sight of the black organization, then it will be difficult for the organization that strictly guards against their existence not to regard the keen detective as a thorn in their side, which will bring danger to them. practice.
“As long as you want to understand one question, all the questions will gradually be answered, right? At this age, it is impossible for Dad to suddenly have an enlightenment and evolve from an ordinary private detective to a reasoning genius. ? I'm not an idiot." Mao Lilan pressed the send button and looked at Conan sideways.
In fact, these abnormal behaviors of Conan were also an important part of her suspicion of the other party's identity.
There were obviously so many high school students standing around, so why did Dad have to choose elementary school students to complete so many assistant tasks for him? It was impossible for other people's children to be exploited easily.
This kind of activity at the detection scene, coupled with the frequency of the restless detective getting involved in various incidents, it is also a question whether the identity of Edogawa Conan will become equally high-profile.
Tang Ze nodded in agreement, feeling that Mao Lilan's proposal was very constructive.
“A Bluetooth speaker or a small intercom device is not troublesome. I remember, didn’t the doctor make a traceless adhesive for attaching the transmitter? If used with that, the effect should be quite good.”< br>
As Tang Ze spoke, his gaze turned to the last member at the table for advice.
Haibara Ai, who was quietly writing elementary school math problems for mentally retarded students, felt the gaze and looked back wordlessly for a few seconds before finally sighing: "...I'll go back and ask the doctor."
Her eyes flashed across the faces of the other three people present. She hesitated to speak, but hesitated to speak. She didn't know what to say, so she had to lower her head and continue to do her homework.
It’s not surprising that Miss Lan saw through the identity of the idiot detective. What’s strange is the subsequent development direction of the entire incident.
If Karasawa couldn't refuse Mao Lilan's sincere inquiry and it was normal to give hints, then Kudo's frankness and Mao Lilan's silence were in a category that she could not quite understand.
After a big detour, he made her disguise herself, take a temporary antidote, and let Tang Ze raise his hand to transform and transfer at the end, just to stand in front of Mao Lilan and confess this. This kind of thing is simply about maximizing losses!
Is this the sense of ritual that only people in love have? How scary.
The result was that not only did Karasawa know about Conan's identity confirmed by Mao Lilan, but she, the one who took the blame in disguise, also exposed the fact that she knew that Conan was Kudo Shinichi.
Fortunately, she and Tang Ze were siblings, and they were each other's last relatives in the world, so Mao Lilan didn't think much about it.
But no matter what, such a round-table daily meeting was still too weird. Haiyuan Ai felt uncomfortable all over and had to silently write homework for a long time.
"You should come too." Karasawa, who relayed the call to the group members, suggested casually, "Everyone is going out to play, and it doesn't make sense for you to stay alone in Tokyo."
< br>
A person here in Karasawa means that when he leaves Tokyo, the members of the Phantom Thieves will definitely follow him unconditionally. The others will be taken away by him, and only the left-behind child Ai Haibara will be left in the stronghold.
Oh, there are also Zhu Fu Jingguang’s lonely eggs.
"Yes, let's come together. Anyway, we are going by JR, so we can add a child ticket." After receiving Fei Yingli's reply, Mao Lilan's mood improved obviously, and she invited with a smile, "Karasawa You always run around with us, so you are lonely with the doctor, right?"
"Me?" Haiyuan Ai raised his head, looked at Mao Lilan's smile, and then looked at Tang Ze, and had no choice but to Agreeing, "Then I'll bother you."
With her sister and Tang Ze here, she is not worried about problems. In addition, she also understands Tang Ze's thoughts.
Belmode was already fully prepared to attack, and he was just waiting for a suitable opportunity to attack her.
At this moment when an arrow is on the string, Tangze will naturally not relax her safety concerns.
If Noah hadn't also contacted her mobile phone, she would have doubted that Karasawa could monitor her closely with the same attitude towards Kudo, and let her install a transmitter or something...
Hmm , although the love and care from her brothers and sisters moved her, but if it was too heavy, she really didn't dare to move now.
"Don't be so formal. Let's go out and play. Relax a little." Tang Zeyi reached out and patted his sister on the shoulder. Tang Zeyi pointedly said, "Just think of it as an entertainment show."
————
Soon, Haibara Ai, who arrived at Karuizawa, understood what Karasawa meant.
Indeed, it is definitely not an exaggeration to say that family ethics dramas about break-ups and reunions are sideshows.
"What do you mean, you came to Karuizawa to see the scenery and escape the heat. I think you came to the resort hotel to see the swimming pool." He pinched the player of Kogoro Mori playing frivolous country music. , Mao Lilan turned up the volume to the maximum without mercy. "Help -" Mouri Kogoro, whose eardrum was almost exploded by the bass drum, screamed and pulled off his headphones, "What are you doing? Who am I offending if I just listen to a song to relax?"
"Whether listening to music relaxes your ears or your eyes, you know it yourself." She put the player into her pocket angrily, and Mao Lilan turned away, "My mother bought me the player, I don't want to lend it to Semi." Narrow old man."
"I don't mean anything else..." Guiltily looking away from the extremely exposed swimming pool, Mouri Kogoro argued, "The cases are coming one after another, and so am I. There will be pressure, so I want to relax..."
Conan's eyes, which were just silently despising him, turned into half-moon eyes.
You are so stressed. Haven’t you been sleeping to catch up on your sleep? Haven’t you had enough rest?
Mao Lilan, who has fully understood the nature of his "sleeping Maori Kogoro", also raised his eyelids.
Others use their brains and don't use your CPU. Where is your pressure? Do you have too many variety show invitations to deal with?
Then Mingzhijun is more diligent in variety shows than you, and he has to solve the case personally, so I don’t see what he can’t hold on to?
“Don’t you feel sorry for your mother when you look like this?” Mao Lilan dragged him out of the swimming pool area and kept scolding him, “You were saying a few days ago that you wanted to make more efforts to go on a date with her. How many times have I seen a bikini beauty here today?”
Mouri Kogoro’s expression froze, he turned his head and said stiffly: “What’s the use of my efforts on this kind of thing?” Aren't you also hanging out with a handsome young man..."
Well, he admitted that the reason why he suddenly decided to come to Karuizawa was because he heard that Fei Yingli's office came here for vacation.
But after everyone else arrived, Fei Yingli flatly refused to come out to meet them. He was really angry.
Fei Yingli’s office has too many young adults in their prime. Although Fei Yingli’s daughter is already eighteen, judging from her appearance alone, not only does she not look old, but because of her career Successful, mature and capable, especially possessing the aura and charm of a mature woman.
For young people in their twenties and thirties, facing such a charming and interesting boss, it is difficult not to have the illusion that I don’t want to work hard anymore.
It is precisely because of understanding this that he has been sulking here.
"How is it possible, mom is not a crooked person like you..." Mao Lilan, who categorically denied, walked through the administrative corridor of the hotel and entered the shopping street on the lower floor, and suddenly stopped talking, "Mom , Mom? ”
Fei Yingli, who was wearing light casual clothes, was actually visiting a men's clothing store with a handsome and upright young man, as Maori Kogoro guessed.
Perhaps because she is in a resort, Fei Yingli is dressed loosely and casually. The young man standing next to her is also wearing a casual suit. The linen coat is paired with a slight stubble, which makes it a little romantic. Interesting, it is a style that attracts ladies at first glance.
Fei Yingli picked up a tie on the counter with a smile, raised her head and asked the man something. As she spoke, she compared the tie on the other man's chest. No matter how you looked at it, it looked like she was buying clothes for someone.
"Eiri..." He was just saying angry words, but he didn't expect it to come true. Mouri Kogoro immediately clenched his fists and fell back in anger.
"Why are you here? What a coincidence." Fei Yingli, who didn't notice anything was wrong, turned her head and said hello. She lowered her head and saw the tie gesticulating in her hand, and belatedly realized that what she had just seen was lost on others. What is the effect in the eyes.
Hmm, Oops, there seems to be an unnecessary misunderstanding.
But now she hurriedly put down the tie, as if she felt guilty, and as if she cared too much about Mouri Kogoro's feelings. Fei Yingri frowned, slowly lowered the tie in her hand, trying hard to pretend There is nothing strange about the indifferent look.
"...Pfft." Haiyuan Ai, who was wearing a light dress, pressed the straw hat on her head and suppressed her laughter, lest she laugh out loud and attract the attention of the people in front of her.
"It's quite interesting, isn't it?" Tang Ze tilted his head and asked in a low voice.
"Well, people in love are indeed fools." Haibara Ai, who once again confirmed this point of view, replied in a low voice.
Conan, who was standing in the front row eating melon, caught the movement behind him with his sharp ears, and he almost didn't choke to death from the two siblings.
I heard what “all” means!
————
"I told you, I just came to Karuizawa for vacation with my colleagues." After ordering drinks and desserts, Fei Yingli couldn't resist the resentful look from the opposite side. Helpless, "This is lawyer Saku from our law firm. I have known him for many years."
"Well, is that why you bought him a tie?" Mao Lilan, who was holding her chin in her hands, narrowed her eyes and looked unkind. He stared at Saku Hashi's face.
His appearance is indeed not bad, with thick eyebrows, big eyes, and a little stubble, he is still a very attractive type.
So Mao Lilan was particularly displeased with him.
"No, it's a friend who wants this tie as a gift. I feel that Saku's dressing style is closer to him, so I asked him to choose it with me, right?" Fei Yingli looked to her side. person, trying to clarify.
"Oh? Is that so?" Saku Hoshi pretended to be surprised, and replied half teasingly, half disappointed, "I thought you were really planning to give me something."
"Saku ..." Fei Yingli, who didn't know if the other party was joking, became helpless.
Mouri Kogoro snorted lightly and said dissatisfiedly: "For this reason, you are trying to coax a child. Don't you know how to choose a gift by yourself?"
"...Then I'm really sorry." Yingli's forehead jumped, and she gritted her teeth and looked back, "But I remember, didn't someone officially divorce me? Why are you so lenient?"
"I am indeed meddling in your own business and hindering your development." It's spring, right?" Mouri Kogoro stared back unwilling to be outdone.
"What a second love, please stop slandering me. I'm not someone who would have an office romance and affect my work status." Fei Yingli also glared and retorted.
“So, would you consider it if I were not your colleague?”
"Oh, I just don't want to be judged like this by a guy who can't walk when he sees a big-breasted beauty..."
The two people quickly entered the black-eyed chicken battle mode, and indulged themselves in the bickering. Everyone around the table was stunned.
“I thought only boys like Hattori-kun would be like this when chatting with girls they like. I didn’t expect people of this age to be so energetic.” Got a glass of watermelon Juicy Hui Yuan Ai held the straw in her mouth and expressed in a low voice.
"Some people talk about love like this," Tang Ze nodded seriously, "You should praise them for being young at heart."
"Oh, that's right..."
Colleague Fei Yingli, who was sitting on the other side, finally couldn't stand it anymore when she heard that Tang Ze was teaching the children bad things, and said in a low voice: "No, Lawyer Fei only likes to quarrel with others when she meets Mr. Mao Li. She is usually a queen."
"Queen?" Mao Lilan finally pulled her attention away from her parents who were in the stage of trash talk and asked curiously.
"Don't you know? Her awe-inspiring authority in court cannot be violated by anyone, and her eloquence can impress the president of the court. Everyone calls her the 'Queen of the Legal World'." Ritsuko Usui chuckled, "The queen met her husband and became an ordinary commoner."
"It's her ex-husband." The two people in the dispute turned their heads and declared in unison.
After discovering that the other party had done the same thing, they turned their heads again and glared at each other angrily.
"Should it be better to say that they have a tacit understanding, or that they are able to understand the current situation very well?" Conan arranged in a low voice.
"If you ask me, I think this situation should be called a good match." Tangze replied.
"Shut up, too!"
