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

Chapter 454 Daily Thoughts on Life

The time passed from before daybreak until seven o'clock, and Conan finally finished the call with his friend before his phone ran out of battery.

——This was when Mouri Ran woke up and found that Conan, who was as big as her, was missing, so she ran out to look for him, forcing Conan to interrupt the call, otherwise he could have continued talking to Hattori Heiji until his phone was turned off.

and……

"Really? Why did Hattori call you so early to chat? Don't you know that children need to sleep more to grow?"

After listening to Conan's explanation of the cause and effect, Mao Lilan suddenly became a little dissatisfied with Hattori Heiji.

Because Conan said that Hattori Heiji called him early in the morning to talk about a mystery story...

Conan is already very skilled at tricking his friends.

Of course, even if he puts the blame on the other party, Conan still has to be educated by Xiaolan earnestly, such as turning off the phone when sleeping...

After 'sincerely' accepting the criticism and education, Conan sat in the living room with Xiaolan and had breakfast obediently.

However, Conan was absent-minded while eating, his mind full of the masked man, the organization, and the figures of Jing and Lie.

"If Mr. Lin and that Uncle Cangfeng are both members of the Masked Man Organization, then what exactly do they want to do?" Conan pondered this question in his heart.

Although he currently has no evidence to prove that Ao Fengqian is the masked man who saved Haibara Ai, Conan recalled carefully that the few times he saw Ao Fengqian were all when Haibara Ai was around... Can he understand that the other party is monitoring Haibara?

After all, if we knew that Haibara was shrinking, then it would seem reasonable to pay extra attention to such a magical 'little white mouse'.

And Conan thought of the time when he solved the case in Beihu Mall, the other party directly believed that he could solve the case...

That man might have already known his identity!

It is very likely that Mr. Lin said...

"...Come to think of it, Officer Matsuda seemed to have noticed me after being tipped off by Mr. Lin." Conan's mouth twitched.

Mr. Lin actually kept it a secret from him for so long... Too much!
Fortunately, at present, Mr. Lin and the others have no ill intentions, otherwise I would be doomed even if I had nine lives.

But if we round it off, doesn't it mean that Hiroki might also know his and Haibara Ai's identities?
Conan: "..."

I seem to understand a little bit why Hiroki suddenly became less enthusiastic about him for a while. I guess from that time Hiroki knew that he was Kudo Shinichi and couldn't accept it for a while, right?
After pondering for a while, Conan began to worry about how to face Rei and Hiroki in the future.

Also, should he talk to Haibara Ai about this?
Conan poked the bowl with his chopsticks, feeling conflicted.

After finishing her breakfast, Mao Lilan found that Conan had barely moved his chopsticks. She thought that he had no appetite because he was woken up too early by Hattori. After thinking for a while, she said, "By the way! Conan, my father took a commission yesterday. Do you want to go with him to take a look later?"

Xiaolan thought that since Conan liked reasoning, she should prescribe the right medicine.

Sure enough, Mr. Ke, who was at a loss just now, suddenly became alert: "Sister Xiaolan, what is the commission?"

"Hmm... It seems to be a very powerful person, a candidate for the parliamentary election. He came to my father and said that he wanted to investigate his wife's situation."

Conan: "..."

What? It turned out to be an affair...

……and many more.

...Member of the Congress?!

"Sister Xiaolan, when is the commission time!" Conan suddenly became excited.

Damn, another congressman? There must be something fishy going on here!
"Well, it seems like any time before five o'clock is fine." Xiaolan blinked and secretly praised herself for finding the right topic. "How about it? When Dad gets up, we can go together..."

Before Xiaolan finished speaking, Conan was so excited that he wanted to shout "I do" loudly.

At the same time, there was a sudden noise outside the door. Xiaolan and Conan stopped talking and looked towards the door.

Maori Kogoro walked in yawning, looking sleepy: "Aha... Xiaolan, is breakfast ready?"

Mao Lilan stared at her father blankly, then turned her head to look at the locked bedroom door. She realized something and immediately made a half-moon eye: "Dad, you didn't watch TV in the office downstairs all night, did you?"

Conan: "..."

No, no? He was just on the downstairs stairs making a phone call.

It shouldn't be heard, um, definitely not!
Conan began to eat his meal with a guilty conscience.

Maori Kogoro paused yawning and began to feel guilty: "Well, I only saw a little after three o'clock..."

"Dad! Did you forget that you have a commission today?"

"How, how is it possible! I wrote it down in my notebook..."

"That's what I wrote down!" Xiaolan pouted.

Why is his father so disappointing? If he continues like this, the chances of his mother coming back will get smaller and smaller...

No, she has to find a way to bring them together again!
Xiaolan's quick head began to work.

Of course, she still had to wait until today was over.

Because Kogoro Mouri had been up all night, he planned to take a nap at noon and go to the client's house in the afternoon, since they had already made an appointment yesterday.

Conan also had a day off today. He had nothing to do after breakfast, so he made an excuse to hide in the bathroom and secretly called another person.

……

On a quiet street in Beido-cho.

An old antique car was parked on the side of the road. Gin leaned against his car and talked on the phone, and threw a lollipop to his driver.

"...I guess so. The only people who are active there are probably those two who have nothing to do."

Chewing on a lollipop, Gin spoke into the phone with a vague tone.

"Well, that's about it. I'll have to trouble you again during this period, Jing."

"...Oh? Those little tails, it's normal. After all, that person wants to pull me down from my position, so he must be worried that I will cause trouble. Don't worry, I won't let those people catch me."

"Okay, that's it. If you have anything else, just text me. You don't have to get involved with me anymore..."

After a few more words, Gin didn't put down the phone until Jing hung up. Instead, he continued:
"Noah, please transfer Vermouth's call to me."

[Dear user~Please wait a moment, Noah-Planet is dialing for you——]
Gin: "..."

Is Noah going to completely separate his clone program?

The call was dialed for a while, and after dozens of beeps, Vermouth finally picked up the phone, her tone very sleepy:
"Hello? What are you doing? Why don't you check what time it is before calling me?"

Gin looked at the time obediently: "It's not even eight o'clock yet, it's still early, what's the problem?"

"I don't go to bed until six o'clock. What's the problem?" Vermouth said weakly.

"I don't think it's a big deal...Don't sleep anymore, get up and have fun."

Belmode: "..."

Hi Gin's big-headed ghost!
