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

After saying that.

Lin Mo exchanged phone numbers with Director Ochiai and gave him his current home address before leaving his office.

After watching Lin Mo leave, Butler Ochiai's expression became extremely complex.

He had prepared for a whole month, even secretly training every night, but his murder plan had fallen through.

But it's a good thing!

If he had a choice, he would not want to get his hands dirty with blood, even if it was for justice!

Thinking of this, he naturally felt mostly grateful to Lin Mo.

He decided that he would work hard for his new boss, who had helped him when he was at his most desperate.

Even after I pass away, I want my son to take over my business!

As for those nephews and nieces, they are actually quite capable, but because their families lack power, they can only struggle to make ends meet in those places.

At that time...

Introduce them all to the new boss. If they're willing to hire them, it'll be like finding a powerful backer for the family!

After unloading that burden from his heart, his mood improved considerably, and he even had time to think about the younger generation in his family.

After a while.

He made a verbal call to the owner of Zhenzhong, told him that he had fired him, and then packed his belongings and left.

……

Meanwhile, on the other side...

Amuro Tooru, who had been eavesdropping on the entire conversation from outside the door, couldn't help but sigh deeply. He really couldn't understand Lin Mo.

He thwarted a murder plot and inadvertently landed himself a butler job?

This thing is all legal!

At the very least.

It is impossible to determine from this whether the other party is related to the organization.

But it's alright!

I've only just met Lin Mo today, so I can't be impatient. There's plenty of time in the future, I'll take it slow!

As for now...

We could ask Kazami Yuya to keep an eye out for who will stand up for Lin Mo and see if we can find any information from that person.

Having figured this out, Amuro Tooru quickly left as Lin Mo was about to leave, and returned to Ran's side once more.

but.

Even Amuro Tooru didn't realize that he was being followed by Lin Mo's shadow clone the whole time.

Once he realized that the shadow clone was eavesdropping, he took the initiative to deal with it.

original……

Lin Mo, who was in the office, wanted to contact Oshima Keisuke to come forward, which was why he had decided to have Yamazaki Tetsuya come forward after receiving the Shadow Clone Project plan.

"Bo! Ben!"

"Go ahead and investigate as hard as you can. The day you find the truth will also be the day you have to make a choice."

"Either expose yourself, or cooperate!"

"However, if you would rather expose yourself than cooperate, then I can only send you to your death."

"I'm waiting for you!"

After silently making up his mind, Lin Mo smiled faintly.

Then.

He came to Xiaolan's side again, and the three of them admired the artwork once more.

The Pavilion of Earth, the Pavilion of Sky, the Pavilion of Ocean, the Pavilion of Hell...

Because of Lin Mo's intervention, although the Hell's Mansion was gloomy, it was no different from an ordinary museum.

halfway……

Feeling there was no point in continuing to keep him around, Amuro Tooru casually made up an excuse and then made a grand exit.

but.

Just as Lin Mo felt he could enjoy some time alone with Xiao Lan, and was even planning where to take her out for dinner that night, Conan sneaked in without a ticket, his short legs carrying him.

"Sister Lan!"

Conan was panting heavily, his whole body covered in sweat.

Unfortunately, it's a pity.

Xiaolan wasn't buying it at all and immediately crossed her arms over her chest.

"Didn't you say you didn't like looking at art?"

"Me, haha!"

Conan grinned foolishly, his forehead covered in cold sweat, his face etched with embarrassment.

What could he say?

Although he was indeed unwilling to go to art exhibitions, Conan didn't really take it too seriously when Ran left home in a huff at first.

After all, he thought Xiaolan would be back soon.

but……

He waited for two or three hours, but Xiaolan didn't come back. Then he went downstairs and asked around. The coffee shop staff told him that Xiaolan had left with Lin Mo.

in fact……

The shop assistant was even prepared to say, "Amuro Tooru has also gone there!"

Unfortunately, it's a pity.

Upon hearing the name Lin Mo, Conan reacted instinctively and dashed out without waiting for the coffee shop employee to finish speaking, as the name Lin Mo had become his Achilles' heel.

Shinichi Kudo vowed in his heart that he would protect Ran, the girl who was trying to steal him away!

Don't like going to art exhibitions?

Hehe!

He likes it very much now!

Lin Mo looked at Conan in front of him, feeling quite displeased.

Damn it.

First, there's Amuro Tooru, then there's Conan with a big head.

Is this never going to end?

Can't you just let yourself and Xiaolan have some peace and quiet?

If I'm unhappy, Conan won't be comfortable either!

Thinking of this, Lin Mo immediately rubbed Conan's head.

"Conan, be a good boy!"

"Don't disturb my time with your sister Ran. Of course, I know you're not happy, since you're closer to your brother Shinichi."

"but……"

"Don't panic, just hold it in!"

"Or call Shinichi Kudo over, and I'll have a fair fight with him!"

"Go and call someone!"

Lin Mo spoke seriously, his eyes filled with solemnity.

Obviously.

He knows how to break Conan's defenses!

Meanwhile, on the other side...

Xiao Lan, who originally wanted to speak up, immediately chose to shut up after hearing Lin Mo's words.

In her opinion, if this incident really happened, and that guy Shinichi Kudo showed up...

That's a good thing!

but.

It was precisely Ran's refusal to deny it that completely shattered Conan's composure.

It's numb!

What a date!

Conan was so confused by this thought that he wondered where the hell he was going to find Shinichi Kudo.

Do you think he wants to be Conan?

At this moment, Conan gritted his teeth, really wanting to tell the truth directly; but thinking of the horror of the Black Organization, he gritted his teeth and decided not to go back.

No, absolutely not!

We absolutely cannot involve Xiaolan!

After thinking for a long time, Conan finally gritted his teeth and said, "Lin Mo, you have a girlfriend!"

"Sorry, Conan, I was lying to you last time." Lin Mo didn't even lift his eyelids and immediately retorted, "Ms. Hirota Masami and I are just friends. She can't find a place to live right now, so she's just sharing an apartment with me."

"If you don't believe me, go back and ask!"

Lin Mo was not afraid of this at all.

It's something that can be easily resolved with a simple phone call to Akemi Miyano. After all, that woman doesn't care about such matters; all she cares about is that she and her sister can live out their lives peacefully and happily.

Marriage certificate?

She doesn't care about any of that!

They didn't care whether Lin Mo had other women outside.

Conan: "..."

At that moment, he was completely dumbfounded.

but.

Although he couldn't argue with Lin Mo, he still learned from Amuro Tooru in order to protect Xiao Lan.

They displayed their shamelessness and couldn't fool Lin Mo no matter how hard he tried.

……

At five o'clock in the afternoon, the sun was setting.

The sky was filled with the glow of sunset, and Lin Mo's heart also became languid.

She glanced helplessly at the little brat Conan beside her before chatting and laughing with Ran as they headed towards Beika Town.
