Conan: I'm Not a Model Worker in the Winery

Chapter 345 Hiroki Returns the Book
Eri Kisaki rushed to the Mori Detective Agency and when she saw Kogoro Mori who was drunk and unconscious, her eyes were full of helplessness.

Eri Kisaki, Xiaolan's mother, has been separated from Kogoro Mouri for several years.

When Conan just became a child, Xiaolan once met with him secretly, and Conan almost thought that Xiaolan had fallen in love with someone else.

And Mao Lilan has been trying to reconcile her parents...but her father is always a little disappointing.

such as……

"Okay, I'm here to help you, hurry up and get up..." Kisaki Eri said gently to Mouri Kogoro who was still sleeping soundly.

Eri Kisaki, the queen of court who is well-known in the legal profession.

If an outsider saw such a strong and (adjective) girl showing such a weak side, they would probably think she was crazy.

Mao Lilan looked at this scene, her heart filled with joy - finally, the chance for her parents to reconcile was right in front of her!
She has been trying to bring them together for so long, is this finally going to bear fruit?

However, Xiaolan ignored her father's fighting ability:

Maori Kogoro, who had been moaning "I can't take it anymore" and "Come and save me", drooled a few times: "I really can't eat anymore, Yoko..."

"...?"

Kisaki Eri's gentle smile froze on her face.

The next second, the court queen looked at her own daughter expressionlessly: "Xiaolan, what's going on?"

Didn't this bastard keep calling her name? Who is this Yoko?

Xiaolan's eyes widened immediately, "Ah, this, but Dad did keep calling Mom's name just now..."

What the hell, her father clearly didn’t call anyone’s name just now!

Conan stood aside, feeling the aura of Eri Kisaki, which was no less than that of the people in the Black Organization. He swallowed silently and tried to save his father-in-law:
"Well, Uncle Maori might have been influenced by this TV show..."

As it happens, a cooking show with Yoko Okino as the main character is currently being broadcast on TV.

But the show was only four minutes long, and Conan had just finished speaking when the show was over.

Hibiki Eri had a blank expression on her face: "That's true."

Oh, if she still can't figure out what her daughter is planning, then wouldn't all her years as a lawyer be in vain?
"Well, Mom, you're not going to leave now just because you're angry, right?" Mao Lilan looked at her mother cautiously.

Looking at her husband who was still unconscious on the sofa, Hibiki Eri said with disdain: "Eh~ Of course, I won't do such an immature thing just because of such a small matter..."

"But don't get me wrong, I made this trip just for you, Xiaolan, but this man has nothing to do with it!"

She really wasn't angry at all...at all!
Conan: "..."

Mother-in-law... Oh, no, Aunt Fei looks very angry.

Should he stay away?
"I really can't eat anymore..."

On the sofa, the drunk Mouri Kogoro had no self-awareness at all. He smacked his lips, obviously dreaming sweetly and was completely unaware of the seriousness of the problem.

Barrister Eri Kisaki, who was very dignified in both her dress and makeup, now clenched her fists with gritted teeth.

I really want to beat my husband up but I can't. What should I do? Waiting online, very urgent.

Just when Mouri Ran and Conan were racking their brains to think of ways to calm their mother's anger, the half-closed door of the office was pushed open.

Hearing the noise, the three of them turned around and were slightly startled when they saw the person coming in.

"Hiroki, why are you here?" Conan blinked in surprise. The little boy standing at the door looking at them curiously, isn't he Sawada Hiroki?
In Conan's impression, Hiroki seemed to have stopped playing with him when he was in the office from one day on...

He even once suspected that Hiroki disliked him.

But after thinking about it, Conan still couldn't figure out the reason for Hiroki's sudden change of attitude, and finally he could only hastily attribute it to "Don't try to guess what a young genius is thinking."

Hiroki naturally had no idea what Conan was mumbling in his mind.

But to be honest, he really didn't want to come over... because as soon as he saw Conan, he would become suspicious that someone had died somewhere again.

However, Hiroki has always been good at saving face.

He looked at Kisaki Eri curiously, then smiled and answered Conan:

"I came here to return a comic book. I wanted to ask if you were there first, but when I called the office just now, the line was busy. I guessed that you were probably on the phone with your client or someone else and you wouldn't leave for a while, so I hurried over."

As he spoke, Hiroki took out several comic books from the bag behind him.

Conan: "...?"

When did Hiroki take so many comics from Xiaolan's house?

Looking at Sawada Hiroki who was putting the comics back on the bookshelf as if he was her own home, Eri Kisaki ignored her husband who made her feel unhappy for a moment and leaned close to Xiaolan's ear, "Xiaolan, whose child is this? He has strong logical ability."

"He's the nephew of Mr. Lin that I mentioned to my mother before. His name is Chi Yan Hong Shu."

Xiaolan also whispered in her ear.

"Is that the little genius you mentioned who's good at computers?"

"right……"

Hiroki Sawada listened to the whispering behind him which was very clear to him, calmly put away the comic book, turned his head to glance at Kogoro Mouri who was lying on the sofa, and chose to ignore it.

He smiled and said to the three of them: "Sister Xiaolan and Aunt Maoli, are you going to solve the case? Then I won't bother you anymore..."

Mao Lilan: “!”

Did Hiroki hear them talking?
Conan: "?"

How did Hiroki know that Eri Kisaki is Xiaolan's mother?
"Mao, Aunt Maori?" Eri Kisaki's eyebrows twitched, she lowered her head and smiled kindly, "Um, Hiroki, right? Although I am Xiaolan's mother... but you can just call me 'Aunt Kisaki', okay?"

Hiroki blinked his eyes, feeling the powerful pressure from the other party, and immediately nodded: "Okay, Aunt Fei."

I had never seen her in person before and didn't realize that Xiaolan's mother had such a strong aura.

Why is there such a big gap between this family?
Hiroki Sawada looked at Kogoro Mori, a hint of thought flashing in his eyes.

Conan poked Hiroki, "Hiroki, how do you know that Aunt Fei is Xiaolan's mother?"

Hiroki seemed to recognize her when he came in just now, but it seemed that none of them had mentioned Xiaolan's mother to Hiroki before.

"Because she looks a lot like Sister Xiaolan, and she looks like an elder, and she's so close to Sister Xiaolan... This is easy to guess." Hongshu weighed his schoolbag and said calmly, "I still have to take Uncle Lin to the hospital. Sister Xiaolan, Aunt Fei, I'll leave first!"

Conan: "..."

Hiroki doesn't even greet him now...

Will love really disappear?
