Conan's All-Member Force Enhancement Plan

Chapter 450: Master-Disciple Relationship or Money Relationship

There are still a few days before the gaming equipment launch conference, which is just enough time for Mao Lilan and others to finish their exams.

The Junior Detective Team also used the exam as an excuse to cancel their training and dinner at No. 11 in the past few days.

After school, Edogawa Conan returned to the detective agency and successfully encountered the commission site.

However, what surprised him was that while listening to the commission, Kogoro Maori actually called Toru Amuro who worked at the Poirot Café, and claimed to the client that Toru Amuro was his apprentice and was now learning from him.

As soon as Edogawa Conan opened the door of the detective agency, he saw Amuro Toru with his back to the door. Maori Kogoro was shocked and guilty: "Conan?! Why are you back? Didn't you go to No. 11?"

Conan Edogawa didn't quite understand Maori Kogoro's emotions: "The exam is coming up, so we're going to stop training for a few days. ...Uncle, what's wrong with you?"

Maori Kogoro looked at the time and found that there was still some time before Maori Ran finished school, so he breathed a sigh of relief: "Nothing."

Then he said to the client with a professional smile: "We understand your situation, let's go check it out now."

After saying that, Maori Kogoro turned his head and looked at Edogawa Conan: "I have work to do, you find a way to solve dinner by yourself, don't talk nonsense."

How could Edogawa Conan let go of the commission? He hugged Maori Kogoro's thigh and said, "Uncle! What is the commission? Take me with you! I can help too!"

Maori Kogoro was reluctant and ruthlessly pushed Edogawa Conan off his legs: "Don't you have an exam? Go and review! Don't disturb me while I'm working!"

Conan Edogawa screamed: "Take me there! Take me there! I've already reviewed and I won't disturb you from work! Please, uncle!"

The client smiled and said, "It's okay. It's not good for a child like him to stay at home alone. He can go with us."

Toru Amuro helped persuade him: "Mr. Maori, take Conan with you. I will help take good care of him."

Maori Kogoro still didn't want to take Edogawa Conan, but Edogawa Conan suddenly leaned close to his ear and whispered, "Uncle, you don't want Xiaolan to know that you took Mr. Amuro. If you don't take me, I will complain."

Maori Kogoro retreated suddenly: "How did you know?!"

Conan Edogawa smiled and said, "I can deduce. See, I'm so good. Why don't you take me with you to the commission site?"

Maori Kogoro gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, since the client agrees, you can go with him. But remember, if you dare to make trouble at the scene, I will smash your head!"

Edogawa Conan shrank his neck slightly and smiled at Maori Kogoro: "Okay, uncle, don't worry, I will definitely be good and will never make trouble!"

Kogoro Mouri didn't believe a word of Edogawa Conan's promise, but there was nothing he could do but to take him with him.

Toru Amuro watched the two interacting with a smile, and made eye contact with the client from time to time in order to maintain customer base.

Edogawa Conan got what he wanted, put down his schoolbag and followed him out.

He was quiet for less than ten minutes before he started asking questions: "What is the commission?"

"Where are we going?"

"Why did Mr. Amuro follow his uncle?"

"When did uncle get a disciple like Mr. Amuro?"

"..."

Kogoro Mouri had a headache from being naggled, but Toru Amuro patiently answered all of Conan Edogawa's questions.

After hearing Toru Amuro's answer, Conan Edogawa said: ...So Toru Amuro used money to buy the opportunity to take on commissions with Uncle Mori?

Tsk, no wonder there are so many Yoko Okino peripherals in the Mouri Detective Agency recently.

It turns out that I have found a way to make extra money.

Should I report this matter to Xiaolan?

After all, Xiaolan doesn't seem to like Toru Amuro being too close to them.

Thinking of this, Conan Edogawa suddenly remembered that he had not yet told Mouri Ran that he and Mouri Kogoro were not at home.

Just as Edogawa Conan took out his phone to send a message, he received a call from Mao Lilan: "Hello? Sister Xiaolan?"

Mao Lilan's voice came from the other side of the phone: "Conan, Sonoko and I are going to eat ramen with our new classmates today. If you don't go to No. 11, do you want to join us? My father seemed to have said that he has an appointment with a client this afternoon, so he probably won't have time to cook."

Upon hearing this, Edogawa Conan immediately said, "No need, Xiaolan, I'm with my uncle, and we're on our way to solve the commission together."

At this moment, Maori Kogoro suddenly shouted: "Amuro, what do you think about this matter?"

Mao Lilan heard the voice on the phone and couldn't help but stop: "Amuro? Is it Amuro Toru's Amuro?"

Edogawa Conan covered his face helplessly. It wasn't that he didn't help to conceal it. He could only blame Uncle Maori for not doing his best: "Yes."

Mao Lilan frowned slightly: "Aren't you going to solve the commission? Why is Mr. Amuro here too?"

Edogawa Conan sighed secretly and explained: "Well, my uncle probably felt that Mr. Amuro's deeds of doing part-time jobs to support the office were very touching, so he accepted him as his apprentice. Today, I took him to learn how to work."

Mao Li Ran knows Mao Li Kogoro very well. She doesn't believe that Mao Li Kogoro would accept a disciple just because of any sentimental reasons. Combined with the new Yoko Okino peripherals that have appeared in her house from time to time recently, Mao Li Ran's half-moon eyes.

She was so disappointed: "Did my father take money from others?"

Edogawa Conan coughed lightly and said vaguely: "I did collect some tuition fees, haha."

Mao Lilan: ...It's outrageous.

If this isn't deliberate approach, what else could it be?

There is indeed something wrong with that Toru Amuro!

Fortunately, Kogoro Mouri knows nothing. I hope that information that should not be leaked will not be leaked.

Mao Lilan sighed. Now that she had received the money, it would be impossible for her to just kick the person away and not do the job. She could only bite the bullet and let her father continue.

But they have to be careful in the future and not reveal any flaws in front of Kogoro Mori.

Mao Lilan told Conan Edogawa: "Conan, keep an eye on my father and don't let him talk nonsense."

The corner of Edogawa Conan's mouth twitched. He was asked as a primary school student to watch adults...

Well, in terms of Uncle Maori’s unreliability, he is sometimes even less reliable than an elementary school student.

ah~

As soon as Edogawa Conan hung up the phone, Amuro Toru came over and said, "Conan, is this Miss Xiaolan calling?"

Edogawa Conan nodded obediently: "Well, Xiaolan is worried that my uncle will go out to work and I will have no dinner to eat when I am alone at home."

Amuro Toru said with a smile: "Ms. Xiaolan is really considerate."

Edogawa Conan smiled innocently and nodded in agreement.

Amuro Toru tilted his head: "But does Miss Xiaolan not like me very much?"

Edogawa Conan innocent face: "Really? I don't think so."

Seeing this, Amuro Toru spread his hands and said, "Well, maybe I was wrong."

On Mao Lilan's side, a boy with short hair and tiger teeth looked at Mao Lilan in confusion: "Xiao Lilan, is Conan your brother? Your mother likes Conan Doyle very much, right?"

Suzuki Sonoko waved her hand: "No, it's a little boy who is staying at Xiaolan's house, but he is indeed a Sherlock Holmes fan."

The boy nodded. I see.

There are no customers at No. 11 today.

Although Jin Mai had already come, Haibara Ai still did not go to school after her leave.

The Classic of Mountains and Seas says that once you have taken the leave, how can you regret it midway?

As a human being, the most important thing is to keep your word.

Therefore, all the permanent members of No. 11 were present today, so Si Xuanyu simply invited everyone to have a barbecue.

Wu Meiying received some news and reported to Si Xuanyu: "Xuanyu, a lot of foreigners have flooded into Japan recently. They all seem to be from the same organization called 'No Death, No Rest'. The company has begun to be on alert. Should we strengthen security at No. 11?"

Hiroki Sawada swallowed a mouthful of potato and said, "Fight to the death? The organization that is targeting the bomb criminal Pramya?"

Wu Meiying nodded: "Yes, Pramiya recently posted on the dark web that she would retire after completing her last job in Neon. This organization is probably afraid that if they miss this opportunity, they will never be able to catch anyone again, so all the members gathered in Neon."
