Chapter 4: A Request from Yoko Okino

Maori Detective Agency.

"Dad, you're watching TV again. Take a break."

After saying that, Huisuke, who had just returned home, took the remote control and switched to the Kamen Rider channel.

As we all know, special effects dramas such as Kamen Rider, Armor Hero and Ultraman are part of most people's childhood, and Terusuke is no exception.

At the beginning of this story, when even smartphones had not yet been developed, he was very interested in Kamen Rider and Godzilla in the Conan world.

"Ms. Yoko!" Kogoro Mouri screamed when he saw the TV suddenly change the screen.

Then he started adjusting the radio, preparing to listen to today's horse racing, while muttering to Huisuke: "Damn kid, I really don't know what's so good about you, Kamen Rider!"

After hearing this, Terusuke curled his lips and said, "I really don't know what's so good about your Okino Yoko. She's even worse than Kamen Rider."

The various scandals that broke out in the entertainment industry in his previous life made him clearly aware of how deep the water is in it. It may seem glamorous, but who knows how dirty it is behind the scenes.

[Congratulations to the host for practicing his own ideas and insisting on watching Kamen Rider, which is in line with the behavior of lying down.]

[Lie flat +3. 】

"By the way, where's that little brat Conan?"

"You would have been back by this time anyway!"

After listening to a game, Kogoro Mouri picked up the can next to him and brought it to his mouth. He paused slightly and asked a question.

Huisuke glanced at the time and realized that the plot was about to begin. Conan should be going to Dr. Agasa to get the black technology.

"I just called Dr. Agasa and he said Conan should be back soon." Xiaolan stuck her head out of the office window and looked down.

"Ah, I see him!"

When Huisuke heard this, he also stuck his head out to look, but he didn't expect to see more than just Conan.

At the distant corner, three heads popped out from Terusuke, from top to bottom were Genta, Mitsuhiko, and Ayumi.

Seeing Conan who had just gone upstairs, the three little ones at the corner, and a car driving in the distance, Huisuke sighed inwardly.

The halo of death has begun to take effect, and it will be difficult to continue such a peaceful daily life in the future.

……

"I am back!"

As soon as Conan came back, he saw Terusuke lying on the sofa and Xiaolan was saying something to Mouri Kogoro.

Conan thought for a moment, walked towards Terusuke, and asked him, "What are they talking about?"

Huisuke leaned listlessly on the sofa, looking out the window, and said to Conan without moving his head:
"Just now, my sister was looking for you through the window. When she turned around, she found my father's case file folder. It was full of detailed records of horse racing."

"So my sister got a little angry and asked him to sort out the documents properly."

When he saw Conan coming back, Maori Kogoro immediately changed the subject and pointed at Conan and said:

"Speaking of which, how long is this brat going to stay here? Why is he still here?"

Seeing Maori Kogoro's clumsy attempt to change the subject, Xiaolan replied helplessly: "Dad, isn't this what you agreed to?"

"And you said before that a case would happen when Conan came. Is he your lucky star?"

Maori Kogoro rubbed his chin and thought, "Is that so?"

"Then why hasn't this lucky star brought me good luck today?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a knock on the door behind him.

"You're actually here? But you're not working today!" Maori Kogoro was taken aback, looked at Conan, and then said to Terusuke:
"Kusuke, open the door and tell them that the Mori Detective Agency is closed today. If you have anything to do, please come back tomorrow!"

Huisuke was half lying on the sofa, looking at the door, then looking at Conan beside him, looking back and forth several times, saying nothing, but it seemed as if he had said everything.

When Conan saw the look in Terusuke's eyes, his head was immediately filled with black lines, and he secretly complained in his heart that this kid was so sinister and lazy.

Although he thought so in his heart, Conan still walked to the door silently and opened it. After all, he had high hopes for the Mouri Detective Agency.

Since he has made up his mind, he wants to rely on the Maori Detective Agency to help him find the mysterious organization.

Therefore, he cannot let go of any case.

After all, only by spreading Uncle Maori's fame can we reach that level.

[Congratulations to the host for lying down and letting Conan open the door, which is consistent with lying down behavior.]

[Lie flat +5]

"Hello," Conan said loudly the moment he opened the door, "Excuse me, what can I do for you..."

Just as Conan was speaking, Kogoro Mouri picked up the empty can and inadvertently saw the figure behind the door.

Maori Xiaowu took off with a jerk and rushed over. He pushed Conan, who was opening the door, aside and pointed at the person knocking on the door with some trembling eyes. He asked in disbelief:

"Could it be that you are, Okino Yoko?"

Terusuke couldn't help but be amazed at this scene. Conan hadn't even opened the door completely, but Mouri Kogoro actually recognized him.

Conan, who was pushed aside, was a little speechless at Maori Kogoro's reaction, but then he looked towards the door curiously, wanting to see what the big star Maori Kogoro had been talking about looked like. Standing at the door was a beautiful woman with golden wavy hair, wearing a pink coat, and holding a round hat she had just taken off in her hand. She had a gentle temperament.

"Um, yes, yes..." Looking at the excited Maori Kogoro, Okino Yoko nodded awkwardly, and then said a little embarrassedly: "I have something to ask for a commission. Isn't the detective agency open today?"

"That's nothing, it's just a child shouting." Maori Kogoro waved his hand and said:
"Please go to the office area and wait for a while."

Conan was very upset when he heard this. It was clearly him who said it, so why did he turn around and put the blame on himself?

Then he looked at Huisuke next to him, and suddenly Conan was confused. Did Huisuke do it on purpose or accidentally? So Conan began to reason about Huisuke's behavior.

"Kusuke had been looking out the window when I came back. He knew it was Okino Yoko, so he didn't move."

"This guy actually used the information gap to trick me. He's quite good at it!"

"Oh right! Not only this time, but also those three kids in elementary school!"

"Although the troubles he caused me were minor, I can see from the small details that Terusuke's abilities should not be underestimated!"

If Terusuke knew what Conan was thinking, he would probably be speechless. Although Terusuke did want to cause some trouble for Conan, the fundamental reason was that Terusuke absolutely did not want to move as long as he could lie down.

While Yoko Okino was walking a few steps towards the office area, Kogoro Mouri returned to the room at the speed of a 100-meter sprint. When the door opened again, Kogoro Mouri in front of him had changed his previous sloppy image.

He was wearing a white shirt, a lavender suit, and a tie. He even had a rose in his hand. He leaned on the door with one hand and asked in a gentlemanly tone:

"You look like you're having trouble, miss."

Seeing Kogoro Mouri change his clothes so quickly, Terusuke sat up suddenly and looked at Kogoro Mouri in astonishment.

No buddy, it’s open so quickly?
And is this person you?
Xiaolan was also speechless.

Conan even asked directly: "Who are you?"

……

After a brief understanding, including but not limited to Yoko Okino's address, phone number, and a handwritten signature directly marked as addressed to Kogoro Mori.

Everyone also understood the purpose of Yoko Okino's visit.

Just like in the original novel, Yoko Okino was being monitored by an unknown person. When she returned home, she found that the furniture in her house had been moved, someone had sent her strange photos, and there were unknown phone calls.

Manager Sakae Yamagishi, who was bending over behind Yoko Okino with his hands folded in front of him, handed over his business card and said:

"If possible, I hope you can investigate in secret!"

Maori Kogoro stroked Okino Yoko's shoulder and laughed, "Hahahahaha! Leave everything to me, Maori Kogoro. It will be absolutely fine. Don't worry!"

Just as Maori Kogoro was about to go to Okino Yoko's house to investigate, Xiaolan suddenly spoke and said in a sweet tone:

"Can you take me with you?"

"We also want to see what the idol's room looks like."

"Right? Huisuke and Conan?"

Conan was stunned, looked at Xiaolan's eyes, and replied:

"Hmm? Ah, yeah!"

Terusuke was sitting by the window and saw the "Teitan Three Idiots" who had just gotten into the trunk of Yoko Okino's car downstairs.

[Congratulations to the host for knowing about the trio's sneaking into the car without reporting it, which qualifies as lying down.]

[Lie flat +10. 】

Huisuke knew that although Maori Kogoro looked lustful, he would not really have any feelings for Okino Yoko. Xiaolan's idea of ​​going over to supervise was unnecessary, so he waved his hand and made an excuse and said:

"I won't go. I'll leave someone to watch the house to prevent thieves from breaking in!"

Although Xiaolan's eyes were still smiling, her tone became tougher. "It's okay! It's too dangerous to leave you alone. Besides, you must want to see the big star, right?"

"Yes, yes, that's right! That's right, I really want to go!"

Sensing a hint of danger, Huisuke immediately changed his mind.

Maori Kogoro watched this scene, stroked his forehead and said, "Okay, but you must not interfere with my investigation, understand?"

Then he prepared to take Yoko Okino's car to her apartment to investigate.

……

At the same time, in a black car outside a coffee shop.

After meeting with Miyano Akemi, Miyano Shiho recalled the ideas her sister had given her.

"Child?"

After listening to what Miyano Akemi said, Shiho Miyano immediately thought of an example that had occurred in the laboratory.

After taking APTX-4869, one of the mice did not die, but showed signs of rejuvenation. However, she did not report this to the organization at the time, but directly disposed of the mouse.

Not long ago, Gin used this drug on Kudo Shinichi, but Kudo Shinichi's body was not found.

This made it difficult for Miyano Shiho not to associate the two things together. It was very likely that Kudo Shinichi was not dead, but turned into a child!
Thinking that the organization would soon send someone to investigate Kudo Shinichi's situation, Miyano Shiho secretly made a plan. She would go to Kudo Shinichi's home to investigate in person!
PS: Please recommend and comment. Data is very important. By the way, is there anyone watching? I feel panicked if no one speaks.
