The famous criminal in the world of Conan

next day

Maori Detective Agency

"Boom boom boom——"

Maori Kogoro was brushing his teeth when he heard a knock on the door. He quickly finished brushing his teeth and rinsing his mouth, then shouted to the outside,

"Xiaolan, go open the door!"

Xiaolan, who was making breakfast in the kitchen, untied her apron and poked her head out of the kitchen. She first glared at her old father who gave her orders, then patted Conan's sleepy head, and finally walked to the door in three or two steps and opened the door of the detective agency.

"Good morning, this is the Maori Detective Agency, how can I help you..."

Xiaolan skillfully spoke the lines that she had already said countless times.

"You must be Miss Maori, hello, is Mr. Maori at home today?"

The visitor gave Xiaolan a polite smile.

"At home, at home,"

Xiaolan smiled even more brightly.

The first thing he asked was whether his old father was at home. It seemed that he must have received a commission.

God has mercy on me. My father, Maori Kogoro, hasn't received any commissions for a week. The quality of life at home has declined a lot. Now I can finally open my business.

"If you have anything to say, sir, please come inside and sit for a while..."

The visitor nodded, lifted the bag in his hand, and was about to go into the house.

At this time, Conan, who had just washed up, came out and looked out the door curiously...

"Eh?"

Conan's eyes, which were still a little sleepy, suddenly opened wide.

"An, Mr. Amuro?!"

"Hello, little Conan."

Toru Amuro also gave Conan a friendly smile.

"You, what are you doing here?!"

Conan was so frightened that he even forgot his current identity and Amuro Toru's identity for a moment, and his thoughts burst out directly from his mouth.

"As for me..."

Toru Amuro glanced at the bag in his hand, which contained some drinks and gifts, then raised his head and smiled at Conan and Xiaolan.

"I'm here to become your disciple."

"Nani?!"

...........

"Cough-cough-"

Kogoro Mori coughed lightly twice.

At this time, he had already washed up, put on his usual suit, and sat upright on the sofa in the Maori Detective Agency with a solemn and serious look on his face.

He looked at the pile of wine and gifts on the coffee table in front of him, and Amuro Toru who was almost blocked by the gifts and wine across from him. Although he felt a little happy in his heart, he couldn't show it on his face.

"I heard that Mr. Amuro wanted to become the apprentice of the famous detective Maori Kogoro, who is also known as the 'Sleeping Kogoro'?"

Kogoro Mori squinted his eyes, glanced at Toru Amuro, and spoke in a serious voice.

Conan and Xiaolan: You don't need to add those messy titles to your words...

"Um,"

It seems that Toru Amuro was not "shocked" by what Maori Kogoro said. He also had a serious expression on his face, and his eyes kept flashing with a kind of light called admiration.

"To be honest, Mr. Maori, I once ran a detective agency myself, but I was not able to keep it going for long because of my poor professional skills."

"In yesterday's account book case, I participated in it together with you, the famous detective, and Officer Baima, the famous criminal. Listening to your reasoning and ideas about the case, I benefited a lot and was deeply touched."

"After reviewing the account book case last night, I have made up my mind to take you as my teacher and learn the reasoning skills from you!"

As he spoke, Toru Amuro pushed the drinks and gifts on the coffee table over to Kogoro Mori and nodded heavily to him.

"Please give me a chance, Mr. Maori, and accept me as your dull disciple."

"Of course, these gifts are not a token of respect, but just some small gifts for visiting you, the famous detective today..."

Toru Amuro's eyes were sincere and genuine.

Kogoro Maori looked at the several bottles of "famous liquor" in front of him that he usually couldn't bear to drink, and subconsciously swallowed twice.

Xiaolan leaned close to Conan's ear and asked him in a low voice,

"Conan, did Dad do a lot of amazing reasoning in the account book case yesterday?"

Xiaolan felt a little confused. If her father had really made some remarkable deductions yesterday, according to his personality, he would have opened a large bottle of wine as soon as he came back and boasted about it to his daughter.

However, Mr. Amuro highly praised this, so it is obviously a very good mystery content. This...

Conan: Haha, it’s really hard for me to say.

He raised his head in a way that he thought was inconspicuous and glanced at Toru Amuro. The first time they met, this guy just happened to run into him. When he met him yesterday, he was already downstairs of his house. Today, he even came directly to his door...

Damn it!

I always feel that this guy from the "organization" is not a good guy. Is it really okay to let him get closer little by little? !

Thinking of this, Conan couldn't help but ask Toru Amuro innocently,

"Oh, Mr. Amuro, if you come here to be Uncle Mori's apprentice, what will happen to the work of Poirot Cafe?"

He didn't want this guy to get close to him, but he couldn't chase him away openly, so he had to do this.

Hearing what Conan said, Kogoro Mouri also looked at Toru Amuro, feeling a little confused.

"Haha, it's okay."

Amuro Toru smiled lightly, not caring at all, and it was obvious that he came prepared.

"I have already communicated with the store manager. I am at work during normal hours and only come to learn from Mr. Maori when there are cases commissioned."

"My craftsmanship is pretty good, and the store manager is also a mystery fan, so he fully supports my idea."

Amuro Toru said this, scratching his head with a humble look on his face.

Kogoro Maori also nodded.
