The Detective Conan's Luck-Changer: Ran Begs for Mercy at the Start

Then I saw Eri Kisaki taking a nap on the sofa in the office.

During her afternoon nap, Eri Kisaki took off her usual stiff glasses.

Her already beautiful face instantly looked even younger.

With a smile, Izuki Shizuta walked to Eri Kisaki's side and began to chant incantations.

Before long, the door to Eri Kisaki's dormant mental illusion was quietly opened.

Izuki Karuta also successfully entered Eri Kisaki's mental illusion.

Similarly, Eri Kisaki opened her eyes at this moment and saw Itake Karuta.

"Why are you here?"

Suddenly pulled into a mental illusion while asleep, Eri Kisaki still looked a little dazed and half-asleep.

“I heard you thinking of me, so I came to see you.”

"Izuki Karita said softly, taking Eri Kisaki's hand as they explored this new mental illusion," Izuki Karita said.

Eri Kisaki also smiled, a rare sight for her, and in her daze, she couldn't wait to keep up with Izuki Shizuta's pace.

ten minutes later,

Another guest came to the firm.

It was a guest whom Kuriyama Midori knew.

"Good afternoon, Xiaolan~"

Kuriyama Midori greeted him with a smile.

Ran Mouri then said she wanted to take advantage of the lunch break to talk to Eri Kisaki about something.

"It might not be convenient right now."

"The teacher is currently talking to a guest in the office."

It's not surprising that Midori Kuriyama would see Ran Mouri at this time.

Ran Mouri doesn't want to take up Eri Kisaki's work time and affect her work.

Secondly, even if Ran Mouri came at this time, she wouldn't anger Eri Kisaki; on the contrary, she would be happy.

"The afternoon nap time isn't over yet, why is Sister Fei meeting with other guests?"

"Is it a very important guest or an urgent case?"

"Or...daddy's here?!"

Ran Mouri inquired curiously, her eyes full of anticipation.

"Not the Mori Detective..."

"But it must have been arranged with the teacher."

"The guest's name is Itake Karuta."

Kuriyama Midori told him the truth, after all, Mouri Ran was no outsider.

"What?! Itake Karuta?!"

Ran Mouri's voice immediately rose eight octaves, "When did he go in?"

Ran Mouri has great faith in Karuichi Itake's abilities.

It was precisely because of Izuki Karuta's exceptional abilities and unique style of doing things that alarm bells rang in Ran Mouri's mind.

"It's been about 10 minutes since we went in."

Kuriyama Midori was startled and didn't understand why Mouri Ran was so surprised.

Ran Mouri hurried to the office door, instinctively preparing to push it open and enter.

But I'm also worried that if I force my way in, I might see something awkward.

"Xiaolan, what's wrong with you...?"

Kuriyama Midori couldn't understand this behavior of wanting to go in yet hesitating.

Xiaolan didn't explain further.

dong dong dong-

He raised his hand and knocked on the door, giving the person inside some time to process what was happening.

One second, two seconds, three seconds...

A full twenty seconds passed.

"who is it?"

Eri Kisaki's voice rang out, but it was on the answering machine at the front desk.

As always, it was peaceful.

This inexplicably made Mori feel much more at ease.

"It's Xiaolan."

Kuriyama Midori answered.

"I was just about to go back to sleep... Come in."

With consent,

Ran Mouri pushed open the door.

They found Eri Kisaki sitting behind her desk.

There was no sign of Izuki Shizuta in the office.

This left Mori confused.

Kuriyama Midori said that Itake Karuta had entered the room.

"What's wrong, Xiaolan?"

Eri Kisaki was somewhat puzzled.

Ran Mouri closed the door behind her.

Then he inquired about Itake Karuta.

“Izuki Karuta did come, but she left 5 minutes ago.”

"He probably left in such a hurry that Xiao Lü didn't notice."

Eri Kisaki calmly explained, then asked Ran Mouri why she had suddenly come over.

"That's right, Sonoko made a friend online and they're planning to meet in person."

“I was worried about her going alone, so I wanted to go with her.”

"Sonoko suggested inviting Mr. Itake as well... I'd like to ask Princess's opinion."

Ran Mouri continued, "By the way, it seems that Dad was knocked unconscious by Kaito Kid in the bathroom last night, and he also drank alcohol and has been sleeping ever since."

"They were only discovered at 10 a.m. yesterday, and now they've already gone to Europe on a ship."

"It will take some time before we can return to the earth."

Chapter 83 Eri the Stutterer, the Unlucky Fortune Teller

There were just too many things that happened on the night of the anniversary celebration.

After disembarking, Ran Mouri got angry again because of Conan.

After returning to the office, I forgot to check if Kogoro Mouri had come back.

I didn't receive a call from Kogoro Mouri until yesterday morning.

The cruise ship is currently heading towards Europe, and it's impossible for the entire ship of passengers to turn back because of Kogoro Mouri.

Now Kogoro Mori can only wait for the ship to reach Europe and then take a plane back.

Fortunately, the ship had already been bought by the Suzuki Group, and Kogoro Mouri was an invited guest at the anniversary celebration, and he had obviously been knocked unconscious by Izuki Karuta.

When Sonoko learned of this, she had the ship's staff waive Kogoro Mouri's ticket expenses, so Kogoro Mouri had no worries about food and drink on the ship.

"Dad is really something, he sounded so happy on the phone."

Even Ran Mouri couldn't help but complain.

The journey from Japan to Europe takes more than a day or two, but over twenty days.

Various evening parties are held on the cruise ship every few days for the guests' entertainment.

The thought of Kogoro Mouri leisurely vacationing on a ship, staring wide-eyed at the beautiful women on board...

Even Ran Mouri couldn't help but feel angry for Eri Kisaki.

"That old drunkard is always like that, so who cares what he does?"

"As for going out... let's just ask Izuki Karuta to come along."
