Conan: Tennis Boys' Scripted Murder

Chapter 60: Prelude to the Full Moon (2)

The disdainful tone in the letter made Kogoro Mouri very dissatisfied, and he immediately decided to attend the Halloween party.

Maori Juzaburo raised his hand and asked, "Brother, can I go with you?"

"Uncle Shouzaburo, are you also interested in this ghost ship?"

"Yeah, I've never attended a Halloween-themed party before, so it might be a good idea to attend this time. It just so happens that I don't have any classes during this period."

"No problem, Shouzaburo, you didn't see how powerful I was before. This time, I'll let you take a good look at the legendary sleeping Kogoro!"

"Ok."

Maori Jusaburo gave a perfunctory answer and even yawned.

Coincidentally, Miyano Osamu, who was busy writing a report at the police station, also received an invitation letter.

"Miyano, this is a letter for you."

Sato Miwako just went to the mail room to look for something and happened to see a letter signed by Miyano Osamu, so she brought it back with her.

"Okay, thanks, Sato."

Miyano Osamu subconsciously thought it was a sales letter, but then he thought it was unlikely as it should not be popular yet. He took the letter from Sato Miwako and saw the string of English letters, and his hair stood on end.

It clearly says "VERMOUTH" on it, which is pronounced as Vermouth in English, but is also called Vermouth in Japan. This name sounds too familiar!

But he didn’t understand why Vermouth would send him an invitation. Wasn’t he just an ordinary policeman?

He doesn't know it now, but he is already on the Black Organization's recruiting list. He has solved several major cases and is in the professional group, so his promotion speed is much faster than that of the non-professional group.

It is estimated that it will be able to be promoted to a higher level in the next two years. The Black Organization is naturally very interested in people who can bring them benefits.

In this ghost ship incident, Vermouth not only wanted to trip up Kudo Shinichi, but also wanted to test Miyano Osamu's abilities to see if his performance was as outstanding as reported in the news.

"Miyano, are you going to participate?"

"Ah~"

Miyano Osamu was startled by the sudden voice behind him, "Matsuda? When did you come here?"

"Just now, I'm telling you, shouldn't you practice your vigilance?"

"Go, why not? Besides, I don't have any shifts these two days, so I'll go and see who's playing tricks on me."

"Hey, I have to be on duty. Otherwise, I would have gone with you. It would be a pity."

Miyano Osamu didn't want to see Matsuda Jinpei on the ghost ship. He always felt that things would not be peaceful this time.

The day after receiving the invitation, both the Mori Detective Agency and the Miyano Residence became busy.

Kogoro Mori invited Sonoko Suzuki to do his makeup. When Sonoko Suzuki arrived at his house, she saw Hisaburo Mori sitting on the sofa watching TV lazily and was immediately struck by his beauty.

"Xiaolan, Xiaolan, who is this handsome guy? Have you finally figured out how to dump that reasoning idiot and find a new boyfriend?"

This time, Suzuki Sonoko did not approach her directly like a fangirl. She misunderstood the identity of Mori Jusaburo and thought he was related to Mori Ran.

"No, Sonoko, he's my uncle, and Shinichi and I are not a couple!"

"Uncle? We have known each other for so long, how come I didn't know you had such a handsome uncle? And are you sure he and Uncle Maori are brothers?"

Suzuki Sonoko's gaze wandered between Mori Hisaburo and Mori Kogoro, and no matter how she looked at them, the two men didn't look alike at all.

"Uncle Shouzaburo is my cousin, not my biological uncle."

"That's what I said. Xiaolan, does your uncle have a girlfriend?"

"Sonoko! Don't you already have a boyfriend?"

"Hey, I'm asking on behalf of those in my class who don't have boyfriends."

"Well, I haven't heard Uncle Juzaburo mention a girl's name, so he should still be single."

Suzuki Sonoko's task today was not only to help Mori Kogoro put on makeup, but also to do Mori Hisaburo's makeup. When she thought about being able to have close contact with the handsome guy, she almost fainted with happiness.

"Uncle Maori, let me help Maori...Uncle with his makeup first."

"Okay, thank you very much, Ms. Suzuki."

"Hey, you, Xiaolan and Uncle Maori, just call me Sonoko. We're going to attend the Halloween party together later, so don't be so polite!"

Maori Kogoro also chimed in, "Yes, Juzaburo, Sonoko is Xiaolan's best friend, and you will meet often in the future. It would be good if you two can get along more easily."

"Okay, Sonoko, thank you for your help then."

When Suzuki Sonoko heard the handsome guy call her Sonoko affectionately, she felt a little elated.

She held up Maori Jusaburo's face and observed carefully. How come this man's skin was so good? Not even a pore could be seen. Looking at him up close, he was even more handsome.

Suzuki Sonoko's face became redder and redder, and she looked like a cooked hairy crab.

"Yuanzi, are you okay?"

"Don't talk, I'm designing your makeup!"

"Ok."

Maori Jusaburo answered very obediently, and then stopped talking. His eyes fell on a point not far away, and he no longer met Suzuki Sonoko's eyes.

After an hour of work, Suzuki Sonoko finally created a makeup look that made her very satisfied.

Ran Mouri, who had just hung up the phone, turned around and saw a very handsome vampire prince. She had already gotten used to her uncle's beauty, but now she was hit hard again.

"Xiao Lan, my drawing is good, isn't it? This is exactly the vampire prince in my mind. If all the vampire princes in the story look like this, I would like to be assimilated by him!"

"Yuanzi, you draw really well!"

The two girls were immersed in the beauty of Mori Jusaburo, while Mori Kogoro, who had been waiting on the side, became a little impatient.

"Sonoko, is it my turn now? As Juzaburo's older brother, I must be more handsome than Juzaburo!"

Kogoro Mori is very confident about his own appearance. He thinks that if he also dresses up as a vampire, he will definitely look better than Hisashizo Mori.

"I want to pretend to be a vampire blood drinker like Juzaburo!"

"Maori Daiki, we can choose different images. This is a rare Halloween party!"

Suzuki Sonoko still wanted to save him, but the contrast between the two of them would be too obvious and she was afraid that Kogoro Mouri wouldn't be able to bear it!

"I don't care, I want that look."

"Ok."

Suzuki Sonoko and Maori Ran took turns trying to convince Maori Kogoro but failed, so they could only follow his wishes and give him the same outfit.

"Why do I always feel like something is wrong?"

Kogoro Mouri looked at himself in the mirror and felt a little confused. There seemed to be something wrong with this person!
