Ke Xue: My standards for dating are not problematic!

Chapter 407

Night falls
Time flies, and it's already seven o'clock, time to get off work.

"Thank you for your hard work, please be careful on the road!"

Kitahara Natsuyu stood at the door, waving to Miyano Akemi, Haibara Ai, Enomoto Azusa, and others, watching them leave.

They waved to Kitahara Natsuyu and then left, chatting and laughing.

After their figures completely disappeared from his sight, Kitahara Natsumi returned to the shop, stretched, and prepared to start cleaning the shop.

At this point, only Kitahara Natsuhiro, Amuro Tooru, and Wakita Kanenori remained in the shop.

Amuro Tooru and Wakita Kanenori were cleaning up the kitchen, while Kitahara Natsuhiro was cleaning up the area in front of them.

As for Ran and Conan, they had already gone home, and Sonoko had also gone home in her family's car.

Their fulfilling day has come to an end, and they should be lying in bed playing on their phones or reading a book by now.

"Okay, we can go back now that we've finished cleaning!"

Kitahara Natsuhiro rolled up his sleeves and started cleaning, and did the same in the kitchen.

Maori Detective Agency.

At that moment, Kogoro Mouri was eating, drinking, and watching TV in the living room.

Dinner was naturally food brought back from the restaurant.

Because Ran works at the restaurant, she eats dinner there instead of cooking at home. Kogoro Mouri orders food directly from the restaurant and pays the bill monthly. So every night he can eat delicious food, his mouth full of grease, and he can watch Yoko Okino's videos and shows while he eats. It's really fun!

Of course, Xiaolan's cooking is also very delicious, but he has been eating it for so many years, it would be good to change things up.

Xiao Lan was happy to have some free time.

Although cooking isn't very tiring work, thinking about what to do every day is too troublesome, so eating at a restaurant is quite nice.

"Dad, drink less alcohol!"

Xiaolan, dressed in her pajamas, dried her hair while looking at her father and couldn't help but give him some advice.

Since the divorce, Kogoro Mouri has become increasingly reckless, often getting drunk. Fortunately, he drinks at home, though he does go out drinking sometimes, but not often, so she doesn't have to carry him back from izakayas.

"Okay, I know." Kogoro Mouri swirled the sake bottle, slightly tipsy, and said, "Your old man hasn't been drinking much lately, and besides, I've solved a lot of cases recently, so I've only been having a little bit, just a little bit."

"Hey hey hey"

Hearing this, Xiaolan couldn't help but cover her cheek and say, "He's already talking nonsense from being drunk, and he still says he hasn't drunk much. He's hopeless."

She was at a loss and didn't know what to say.

After all these years, she had tried to discipline him, but it had no effect whatsoever. Now that they were divorced, he was naturally going to let loose.

"Sigh, should I find a woman for my dad and teach him a lesson?"

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but recall a comic book she had seen before.

This comic also tells the story of a man's second marriage, but the content of this story is quite heartbreaking.

For example, a man's daughter being bullied by her stepmother.

So when she thought of this, she immediately dismissed the idea. What if she were bullied?

And there's no way to resist, since she's his stepmother; she and Conan might both be kicked out.

Most importantly, with his father in such a terrible state, how could any woman possibly be interested in him?

"Forget it, this isn't something I can decide. Let Dad decide!" Xiaolan shook her head and walked towards the room, but then stopped and turned back to say, "Drink less, and don't sleep in the living room."

"Although the weather is starting to get warmer, it's still a bit chilly at night, and you might catch a cold."

Upon hearing this, Kogoro Mouri let out a burp and waved his hand, saying, "Ran, you're getting more and more long-winded, just like your mother."

"You've had a long day, go to sleep, don't stand here!"

"Sigh," Ran sighed, then walked to her father's room and opened the door: "Conan, I'm done washing up, you can go take a shower now."

At this moment, Conan was lying on the bed on the floor and had fallen asleep.

Ran looked at Conan sleeping and smiled gently, "Conan, you've really worked hard."

Conan was quite busy at the restaurant today, running around everywhere, so after returning, he went to his room and fell asleep from exhaustion.

"Hmm~~~" At this moment, Conan suddenly opened his eyes and subconsciously rubbed them with his hands: "What's wrong, Ran-neechan?"

He was still a little groggy from just waking up.

"You can go take a shower now, I'm all better." Xiaolan squatted down and smiled. "Also, remember to cover yourself with a blanket when you sleep, otherwise you'll easily catch a cold."

Hearing this, Conan nodded vigorously and said, "Yes, I will be careful. Ran-neechan, you should get some rest too."

"it is good."

Xiaolan stood up, smiled, and then returned to her room. Soon after, the sound of a hairdryer could be heard.

Conan sat up, yawned, stretched, and muttered under his breath, "That damn Kitahara Natsuhiro, it's all his fault. If it weren't for him, I wouldn't be so tired and would have fallen asleep as soon as I got back."

"I wanted to watch a detective drama, but I just couldn't watch it because I was too sleepy!"

Although he gave Kitahara Natsuyu a good scolding here, he only scolded him behind his back. He wouldn't dare to scold Kitahara Natsuyu to his face, and he would be severely punished in return.

"Ah!!!" Conan scratched his hair, making it a mess: "When will I be able to turn back into my original form?"

"Back to normal?" Kogoro Mouri lay on the living room floor, turning to look at Conan. "Kid, what are you talking about? Are you drunk too?"

"Why did I say I was drunk? Oh, I was drunk, hahaha."

He couldn't help but burst into laughter.

Conan, sitting in the room, looked at Kogoro Mouri's bizarre appearance, his face twitching involuntarily, but he remained completely calm.

Kogoro Mouri is now drunk, almost to the point of unconsciousness. Even if he heard what he just said, he wouldn't remember it the next day.

So, no big problem!

As for Xiaolan? She was drying her hair in her room, so she automatically filtered out that sentence. Plus, with the TV sound from her room and the living room, it was impossible for her to hear it.

"Sigh," Conan sighed, stood up, and walked into the living room: "Uncle Mori, drink less, you should go to sleep."

"Sleep?" Kogoro Mouri blushed, blinked, and burst into laughter before lying down. "I really should go to sleep."

A few seconds later, snoring sounds came from Kogoro Mouri.

"This guy falls asleep really fast." Conan was speechless when he saw this. "Besides, he'll catch a cold if he sleeps here in this weather."

He shook his head, then took a blanket from the room and covered Kogoro Mori with it. After that, he took his change of clothes and went to the bathroom to take a shower.

"A sneeze."

at the same time.

Kitahara Natsuhiro, who had just finished cleaning, sneezed, rubbed his nose, and looked up at the ceiling: "That brat Conan is badmouthing me behind my back again. He really doesn't hide it from me at all. I'll settle the score with him tomorrow!"

Even though it was through the ceiling, he could still hear Conan cursing him behind his back, so he kept it in mind and planned to settle the score with him the next day.

"Boss, everything's done inside, we'll be leaving now."

At this moment, Amuro Tooru and Wakita Kanenori came out of the kitchen and changed their clothes.

Upon hearing this, Kitahara Natsuyu said, "Okay, you guys go first, I'll lock the door later."

"Thank you for your hard work today, please be careful on the road!"

"Okay, boss, you too."

Amuro Tooru and Wakita Kanenori nodded, then opened the restaurant door and went out.

After the two left, only Kitahara Natsuhiro was left, and he then began to conduct the final checks.

A few minutes later, he also came out of the restaurant, locked the door, and walked towards his home.

At this moment, Amuro Tooru got into his white Mazda, preparing to drive to carry out a mission for the Japanese Public Security Bureau, and also to find his subordinate Kazami Yuya to handle some documents.

His daily work is also very busy and fulfilling.

Buzz buzz.
Just as he started driving, a phone call came in. It was from his subordinate, Kazami Yuya: "Kazami, what's up?"

Upon hearing this, Kazami Yuya adjusted his glasses and said softly, "Last time you asked me to reinvestigate the information on Wakita Kanenori, and now that investigation is complete, I'm ready to report to you."

After Wakita Kanenori started working at the store, he asked Kazami Yuya to investigate him, but they found nothing; he was just an ordinary person.

However, not long after working with Kenjiro Wakita, he felt that Wakita was a bit strange, but he couldn't quite put his finger on what was strange about him. He just felt that something was off.

He always trusted his intuition, and this intuition had saved him many times, so he asked Kazami Yuya to continue investigating Wakita Kanenori to see if there was anything wrong with the guy.

"Then tell me, let's see if there's any information I don't know about this investigation." Amuro Tooru stepped on the gas pedal, controlled the steering wheel with both hands, and drove the Mazda out of the parking lot and into the distance.

In those few short minutes, Kazami Yuya went through Wakita Kanenori's information again.

This time, the information about Wakita Kanenori was not much different from the previous information.

The only difference is that Kazami Yuya had someone follow Wakita Kanenori, but they lost track of him.

"Lost them?!" Amuro Tooru raised an eyebrow upon hearing this. "How did you lose them?"

Kazami Yuya's subordinates are all members of the Japanese Public Security Bureau, and elite ones at that. They are all carefully selected members, so it's impossible for them to lose track of an ordinary person.

So when he heard this news, he felt a little strange.

It's possible that Kenshinori Wakita isn't an ordinary person, but rather has another identity.

“Yes.” Kazami Yuya said seriously, “I sent two people to follow Wakita Kanenori, but they lost them both in the end. Moreover, they blended into the crowd and disappeared before our eyes!”

"He blended into the crowd and disappeared from your sight." Upon hearing this, Amuro Tooru repeated, "So, you all lost him and couldn't find him in the end. So, there must be something wrong with him."

Upon hearing this, Kazami Yuya nodded and said, "That's what I think too. The members I sent out are all elite members of our group. It's impossible that they couldn't even keep an ordinary person in check. So this man is definitely suspicious. His identity is not that simple."

Kenjiro Wakita's identity is indeed extraordinary, and it is quite normal that he was able to shake off the Japanese Public Security Bureau that was following him.

After all, he was a member of a criminal organization, and shaking off the Japanese police was a piece of cake for him; he didn't even need to exert any effort.

It's fair to say that these Japanese Public Security officers were like greenhorns in front of Kanenori Wakita, completely useless.

But it was precisely because of this that Amuro Tooru and the Japanese Public Security Bureau discovered the flaw.

There was no other way, because Wakita also had his own part-time job to do, so he had to get rid of these guys.

However, Kenjiro Wakita knew he was being followed, but he didn't know which side was following him.

Because Japan is now a mixed bag, with members of the FBI, CIA, and MI6, as well as local organizations like the Japanese Public Security Bureau, none of these guys are good at it.

So until he discovered something, he decided to remain still and see who was following him.

"In that case, let's continue the investigation. We must find out exactly who this guy is. Bring more brothers and be prepared. Be careful," Amuro Tooru said in a deep voice.

Although this is Japan, and Japan's police force is on its home turf, we still can't be careless, or we could easily suffer an unexpected setback.

Kazami Yuya said, "Yes, Mr. Furuya, I will be careful. You should also be careful. If Wakita Kanenori is not simple, he might discover your identity. Be careful too."

"okay, I get it."

Immediately, Amuro Tooru hung up the phone, his gaze fixed ahead, a faint glint in his eyes.

"As expected." At this moment, Kenjiro Wakita was also on the phone with someone and learned some information from the call: "It's those guys from the Japanese Public Security Bureau."

"Ignore them for now, and investigate another matter."

"Sir Rum, what is it?"

“Investigate Shuichi Akai. I’m a little uneasy that he hasn’t shown up.” Wakita’s gaze became somewhat vacant as he spoke softly.

Upon hearing this, the person on the phone replied, "Yes, Mr. Rum."

patter
The call ended!
"That Rum guy is really troublesome!" Kitahara Natsuyu scratched the back of his head, looking at Rum's blank expression with a sense of helplessness!
