Conan wants to lie down but won't let him

Chapter 28 Successfully integrated into the Mori family's team

"I was talking in my sleep this morning when I was half asleep. Eri was awake at that time and heard it all, and then... you saw it, it became like this." Kogoro Mouri said, touching his face.

"Dad, what did you talk in your sleep? What made Mom so angry again?" asked Mao Lilan in confusion.

"Hey! It seems like I was dreaming that I pulled Eri's hand, touched her and said, 'Miss Keiko, your hands are smoother than my wife's hands!' Then Eri slapped me awake and said, 'Your Keiko is so good, her hands are so smooth, follow your Keiko and live your life!' Then Eri packed up her things and walked away." Maori's face was filled with depression. Although they had a good time last night and thought they could get back together, something like this happened. Good things take time! "That's why I said it, but I was sent back out again."

"How could this happen, Dad? How do you know Keiko?" Mao Lilan asked angrily.

"Uh... she's the owner of the izakaya I frequent!" Maori Kogoro replied sheepishly, feeling a bit sorry for his ultimate failure.

Fujiwara Hiroshi had a different opinion. He comforted Maori Kogoro, saying, "Brother Maori, don't be sad yet. Think about things from a different perspective. Once you open up your horizons, you will discover a new world!"

"Think about it carefully, why is your sister-in-law so angry? It means she cares about you, so she is jealous when you mention other women! Think about it, isn't it the same? If I were to find another woman today, any other so-and-so, would she care? She won't, because I am an outsider to her, and everything about me can't affect her, but you have a great impact on her. Do you think this is a manifestation that she still cares about you and loves you?" Fujiwara Hiroshi directly started to PUA Maori Kogoro.

"Wow! Brother Fujiwara! What you said makes so much sense. Listening to your words is better than reading for ten years! If you need my help after returning to Tokyo, just tell me and I will come to help!" After listening to Fujiwara Hiroshi's words, Maori Kogoro suddenly felt that he had suddenly seen the light, and the clouds were cleared and the sun was shining!

Yes! Before, I just thought that Hibiki Eri left in anger. Being angry is a good thing, it means you still care about her. If she is really cold and indifferent to me like a stranger, then there is really no hope!

After Maori Kogoro figured it out, he had enough energy to eat breakfast. Maori Kogoro pulled Fujiwara Hiroshi and started chatting with him again.

"Brother Fujiwara, do you live in Beika-cho too? If you have time, you can come visit me." Maori Kogoro invited him warmly. Fujiwara Hiroshi had been waiting for this long for Maori Kogoro's words, so that he could participate in more cases.

"Sorry to bother you, Brother Mori! I will definitely visit you after returning to Tokyo!" Fujiwara Hiroshi replied.

"If Brother Fujiwara comes over, I will definitely treat you well." Mao Lilan also said enthusiastically.

This time, thanks to Fujiwara Hiroshi, all of Fujiwara Hiroshi's arrangements were completely fine. The final mess was also Mori Kogoro's own fault. And it was not completely a waste of time. At least Mori Kogoro and Kisaki Eri have made substantial progress after so many years of separation.

After returning to Tokyo, Fujiwara Hiroshi asked Ozaki to arrange for Okino Yoko and Ikezawa Tomoko to live in the Fujiwara family villa. Her belly was getting bigger and bigger, and she needed someone to take care of her. According to the jumping timeline, it would not be surprising even if she became a child tomorrow.

After the resettlement, Fujiwara Hiroshi continued to live in the apartment in Beika Town, returning to his solitary life. Suddenly, no one was there, and the apartment seemed a bit desolate again. It seemed that if there was a chance, the family could use some new people.

The next day, at the warm invitation of the Mori family, Fujiwara Hiroshi went to Mori Kogoro's house alone to keep an appointment. Before leaving, he went to the wine cabinet and took out a bottle of 82 Lafite, and walked to the Mori Detective Agency with the wine.

"Brother Fujiwara, you are finally here!" Maori Kogoro gave Fujiwara Hiroshi a big hug.

"Brother Mori, I brought you some wine. We can have a drink at noon." Fujiwara Hiroshi said as he raised the wine in his hand.

"Brother Fujiwara, you are too polite!" Maori Kogoro saw that Fujiwara Hiroshi had brought some wine.

"It's okay, Brother Mori. I'll come to your place often in the future and bring wine for us to drink together. If you're satisfied after drinking it, I'll ask Ozaki to send a box over some other day." Fujiwara Hiroshi said as he put the wine on the table.

At this time, Xiaolan and Conan also came out to greet him, "Brother Fujiwara, you are here. You and dad should watch the TV news in the office first. Lunch will be ready soon."

At this time, the news was reporting a supernatural event that had recently occurred in the Medieval Art Museum: at night, someone in armor was walking back and forth in the museum, and was seen by the security guard on duty at night. The security guard was so scared that he threw away his flashlight and ran away.

You can't blame the security guard for running so fast. After all, any human being would be moved and scared by such things. Besides, the security guard only earns 5 yen a month. Why are you asking him to risk his life?!

"There are actually such strange things. This is really not a story or novel, but something reported in the news?" Kogoro Mouri complained.

"Uncle, I guess someone is causing this trouble. How about we go to the art museum together to investigate this matter after lunch since we have some free time in the afternoon?" Conan suggested cutely.

"Hmm! That's a great idea. Since the office hasn't been busy lately, we can go to the art museum this afternoon and take a look!" Maori Kogoro agreed with the suggestion. "I never thought a little brat like you could come up with useful suggestions!"

"Hey, hey! Who on earth is always thinking of useless things? The conclusions of the things you deduce are always a mess. You are such a confused detective, and you have the nerve to comment on me!" Conan complained indignantly in his heart. But on the surface, he had to pretend to be a child who was happy when he received the approval of an adult!

"Thank you, Uncle Maori, for your affirmation!"

Fortunately, at this time, Xiaolan's voice calling for dinner came from upstairs.

"It's time to eat, everyone!" Xiaolan called out at the entrance of the corridor.

"Come on, Brother Fujiwara, let's go upstairs and eat together!" Maori Kogoro led Fujiwara Hiroshi upstairs.

"Brother Mori, wait a minute, don't forget to bring the wine." Fujiwara Hiroshi raised the packaged wine box.

When Fujiwara Hiroshi took out the bottle of 82 Lafite, Maori Kogoro also widened his eyes.

"Brother Fujiwara, this..." Maori Kogoro was a little embarrassed at this time, "I originally agreed to thank you, but it turned out that you brought such expensive red wine. I feel unworthy of it!"

"Brother Maori, what nonsense are you talking about? You and I, brothers, get along really well when we meet. It's wonderful to drink and chat happily! What's the point of drinking this wine alone? I must enjoy it with a close friend to deserve this fine wine."

Everyone sat down together. Kogoro Mori and Hiroshi Fujiwara only drank half a cup each. After all, they had an appointment to go to the art museum together in the afternoon.
