Detective Conan: Becoming a Zaibatsu - Starting with Joining the Winery

This moment.

Xiaolan was genuinely curious!

Amuro Tooru is someone who is not short of money, yet he has done so many temporary jobs. Any normal person would think that there must be something wrong with him.

Seeing the curiosity on Xiao Lan's face, Lin Mo then spoke softly, "I did find out his true identity, but obviously I can't tell you."

"But since you're curious, let me say a little more."

"Amuro Tooru has some hidden shares in more than 20 companies, and each of these companies is considered a relatively important star company in Japan."

"He effectively controls three of these companies!"

Yes!

When Lin Mo discovered these things, he was actually shocked himself.

I originally thought that Amuro Tooru would only cause minor trouble, at most making a little money through expense reimbursement...

But after actually investigating, Lin Mo was quite shocked!

Damn it.

Every single one of them who managed to become a codename member is a shrewd and cunning individual!

Even though Amuro Tooru is an undercover agent for the National Police Agency, it doesn't stop him from secretly gaining more benefits for himself.

Is it illegal?

Do not!

Island nations are, after all, semi-feudal and semi-capitalist countries. Even though the United States has transformed this country, many things have only changed from overt to covert.

How could you possibly clean it thoroughly?

and so……

When Amuro Tooru was undercover, if he managed to gain a little benefit for himself, everyone would turn a blind eye.

no way!

Everyone's doing this, so won't the eldest brother laugh at the second brother?

People like Odagiri and Hattori, even if they mainly work for the Metropolitan Police Department, don't they have supporting businesses outside of that?

some!

It's just that it's far inferior to pure commercial conglomerates, which is why it's not very well-known.

Xiao Lan was completely stunned. This wasn't just an ordinary boss; he was a real tycoon, wasn't he?

And yet this guy works as a waiter downstairs in his own building every day?

This moment.

She truly realized that Lin Mo's behavior, to some extent, could no longer be judged simply as "slander".

Because Amuro Tooru himself seems to have some ill intentions!

otherwise……

Two chance encounters? That doesn't make sense!

The knot in her heart about this matter was instantly untied, and her gaze towards Lin Mo became pure and sincere again, returning to a state of being more than friends but less than lovers.

Thinking about this, Ran couldn't help but frown and ask, "What exactly does Mr. Amuro want?"

"Will this be dangerous for my family?"

I have to say...

Xiaolan felt somewhat worried after learning about this.

And, in response to this.

Lin Mo waved his hand dismissively: "Don't worry, it's fine."

"Amuro Tooru is targeting me; your family will not be in any danger."

"and……"

"Never underestimate your father, and don't be fooled by his appearance. Your father is no ordinary person."

"Even if Amuro Tooru has his eye on your family, I believe your father has the ability to deal with him!"

"I'll keep an eye on things, Xiaolan, you can rest assured."

"I'll step in if anything happens!"

His words also sounded like a guarantee.

However, Xiaolan was somewhat bewildered. Was her father not an ordinary person?

Isn't he just a third-rate detective?

Lin Mo's assurance reassured her considerably, and a sweet feeling welled up inside her. However, she still waved her hand and said, "My father is just an ordinary detective. You're not talking about Mr. Mori, are you?"

"Although my father has boasted before, my family is really just an ordinary family!"

"The Mori clan thing is just a coincidence."

Obviously.

Xiaolan didn't believe those things; after all, she knew her own family's situation best.

Her family was just an ordinary family, without any of those messy things, so she just laughed off Lin Mo's words.

Upon hearing this, Lin Mo couldn't help but smile.

"Xiao Lan!"

"If your father were truly that ordinary, how could you have entered the Teitan Academy at such a young age?"

"Think about your alumni, how many of them come from ordinary families?"

"The public schools in Beika Town are Beika-affiliated schools!"

"besides……"

"If your father were truly that ordinary, would your mother, Eri Kisaki, have married him?"

"Don't forget!"

"Both your parents graduated from the Teitan Institute, which in itself means that your parents are of a high caliber."

"Although for your safety and well-being, and for your mother's career development, your father chose to resign from the Metropolitan Police Department..."

"but……"

"In my opinion, Mr. Mori, protecting your family's safety shouldn't be too much of a problem!"

Lin Mo is quite direct; he says what he thinks.

Because he knew Xiaolan's temperament, he might choose not to say anything, but if he did speak, he would make sure it was 100% true.

But on the other side...

After hearing these words, Xiaolan was stunned and stood there.

She had never thought about these things before, but after listening to Lin Mo's analysis, it seemed that there was some truth to it.

Of course.

What she cared about most was her father's resignation and her parents' separation.

After all these years, she has been trying to win back her parents!

But, unfortunately.

Although my parents are not divorced, they still choose to live separately.

Thinking of this, she disregarded Amuro Tooru and instead asked, "My father resigned for my and my mother's sake?"

"Brother Lin Mo, please!"

"Please tell me the truth."

Seeing Xiaolan suddenly become serious, Lin Mo thought for a moment and then nodded.

Unlike the Amuro Tooru incident, there was no need to hide this one.

Even if Kogoro Mouri finds out, he probably won't say much, since Ran is already a second-year high school student and can no longer be considered a child.

Knowing a little bit won't affect anything.

Taking a deep breath, Lin Mo spoke.

"Can!"

"You should still remember what happened back then. When your father was a police officer in the Metropolitan Police Department, a criminal he arrested took your mother hostage."

"That incident made your father realize that if he continued to work as a criminal police officer, he would definitely arrest more criminals and make more enemies."

"At the same time, your mother is a lawyer!"

"Your mother's work will also make her a lot of enemies."

"You were too young back then. What if your parents' enemies from work suddenly kidnapped Xiaolan at school?"

"so……"

"To provide you with a safe environment to grow up in, your father chose to resign and let you live with him."

"Your mother is focused on her career, so she chose to separate and leave!"

"To put it bluntly..."

"Your parents have no grudges against each other!"

"Your mother doesn't want to move back in now just because she doesn't want the enemies she's made over the years to find this place and pose a danger to you."

"This is also why your parents will not choose to end their separation, no matter how hard you try."

"Unless your mother gives up her career or eliminates that potential danger, she will never choose to move back."

"Because moving back brought danger with it!"

"The same..."

"That's why your parents don't really like Shinichi Kudo and don't think you two can get married."

"Are you kidding me?"

"Your father gave up his job at the Metropolitan Police Department for the sake of his family, and even as a detective, he attracted a lot of trouble."

"Your mother is a lawyer, which has also made her enemies!"

"If you marry Shinichi Kudo in the future, given his passion for detectives, who knows how many enemies he'll make in the future."

"Good heavens!"

"If you really marry Shinichi Kudo, will you even be able to live a normal life after marriage?"

"If enemies come knocking on your door every day, do you think you can survive?"
