Conan, however, remained oblivious to his mother's abnormality throughout. After grumbling briefly, he returned to the sofa in the living room, picked up a detective novel from the study, and resumed reading.

However, he was also very unhappy.

Now that his body has shrunk, it was all the work of that black-clad organization. He has already vowed in his heart that one day he will find those black-clad organization members and eradicate them all.

As for why the name was changed.

That's because they were afraid that Shinichi Kudo wasn't dead and that the Black Organization might discover him, which could put their family in danger.

So now he's called Conan Edogawa, and his identity is that of a relative of the Koto family who's staying here temporarily.

Fortunately, his body had shrunk, and he believed that the Black Organization wouldn't suspect anything, since he was just a child now.

Chapter 0131: Meeting Eri Kisaki

The next day.

Early in the morning.

Osamu Shiraishi got up unusually early today and went straight to Beika Park.

There were quite a few people here in the morning. The cherry blossoms were in full bloom all around, and children were kicking balls and running around on the lawn, while adults were taking leisurely walks around.

"Ugh……"

Shiraishi Osamu sighed, sat on a public bench, and watched all of this with a helpless expression.

He hadn't paid much attention to it yesterday, but now that he's thought about it, he really doesn't know what to do when he sees Yukiko again.

Although even a day as husband and wife is worth a hundred days of kindness, she has a husband, and yesterday's incident was an accident, so it might be very dangerous if they meet again next time.

Are you sleep-deprived?

A pleasant voice sounded in front of him, and when Shiraishi Xiu looked up, he saw a bottle of beverage being handed to him.

Looking up along her fair wrist, he saw Eri Kisaki wearing glasses.

He was a little surprised, not expecting to run into her at Mihua Park, especially so early in the morning.

"Nothing, I was just thinking about something."

After saying that, he took the drink that was handed to him, and his fingers inadvertently touched Eri Kisaki's hand, which was very smooth and very soft.

Eri Kisaki didn't mind the contact, casually sat down on the public bench next to her, opened her drink, took a sip, and asked:

"Wasn't yesterday's Yukiko the real person?"

You found out?

Shiraishi Osamu was very surprised, not expecting that this clever woman had already guessed it before he even said anything.

Eri Kisaki nodded:

"Although they do look very similar, the voice is very similar, and even the perfume they use is the same, there are still some differences in their habits. That faint sense of unfamiliarity cannot be changed by a familiar face."

"Impressive. Attorney Fei, why are you here in this park so early?"

"no big deal."

Eri Kisaki shook her head. She didn't want to argue with Osamu Shiraishi so early in the morning, so she chatted like a normal friend:

"I come here in the morning to breathe in some fresh air and relax. Things are different now than before. There are too many lawyers, so you have to be very serious about every case, or you might lose your job."

"I don't believe that. I've heard that Attorney Fei is the queen of the legal profession."

"Ha ha……"

When Eri heard this title, she couldn't help but laugh. Although she felt a little embarrassed to hear it from someone else, it was indeed a way of acknowledging her abilities.

"Officer Shiraishi, I haven't asked you yet. What exactly are you doing at my law firm?"

"Because I'm bored."

Bai Shixiu smiled. He wouldn't reveal his system mission, and even if he did, no one would believe him.

Eri narrowed her eyes, then thought of something else and said it softly:

"If possible, I hope you won't hurt Xiaolan."

"Huh?"

Shiraishi Osamu turned to look at Eri Kisaki, not understanding why she would say that; it was truly beyond his expectations.

Eri Kisaki sneered:

"Stop pretending. I'm not blind; I can see what my daughter is like. Besides, you're not exactly a peaceful person either."

"What?! Attorney Fei, you've misunderstood. I just treat Xiaolan like a little sister. If possible, I also hope to have a daughter in the future, and then I'll name her Yi Yi, Aiya Ya."

"Oh dear?" Eri Kisaki was bewildered by the name, momentarily forgetting Ran, and subconsciously asked, "Isn't this a name right now?"

Shiraishi Osamu nodded: "It seems so."

"Your idea is quite cute."

"I'm telling the truth, after all, little kids are quite adorable. And a daughter would be even more adorable."

As Eri listened to Osamu Shiraishi's answer, she recalled Ran's childhood appearance, and a gentle and doting smile unconsciously appeared on her lips.

Little Ran was incredibly cute as a child and loved to stay close to her. Watching her grow up little by little was the greatest joy of Eri Kisaki's life.

It's just a pity...

Ten years of separation caused her to miss many moments of her daughter's growth. Although she visited her often, not being able to watch her grow up all the time was still a huge regret.

This is why she keeps focusing on the lawsuit; only in this way can she divert her attention and her longing for her daughter.

As for Kogoro Mouri...

0. Requesting flowers.......

Let's not talk about it...

At the same time, Eri Kisaki also thought of the fake Yukiko from yesterday who said she was short of men, and couldn't help but mutter, "How awful!"

"Huh?" Shiraishi Xiu was confused. What had he said that made him get scolded for no reason?

Could it be that Eri saw through his lie?

If that's the case, then this woman's intuition is truly terrifying.

I wasn't talking about you.

Eri waved her hand and asked, "By the way, how was Yukiko yesterday? She seemed quite agitated when she called to ask me about it."

"Uh……"

Cold sweat instantly broke out on Shiraishi Osamu's forehead; it seemed this was something he couldn't reveal yet.

...... 0

Moreover, the person next to her is a top lawyer. If Yukiko were to file a lawsuit, she might suffer a great loss, even though both of them were powerless at the time.

Thinking about all this, he immediately burst out laughing:

"It's nothing. She just didn't believe I had met another Yukiko. So she called to ask if you really had met her too."

"I see. Okay, I'm going to the office now."

Eri Kisaki said something, picked up her bag, and left.

Watching her figure disappear into the distance, Shiraishi Xiu finally breathed a sigh of relief.

However, he thought of Yukiko again and couldn't help but swallow. Sure enough, that woman was different; the taste was unforgettable.

“嘟

Suddenly, his phone rang. Shiraishi Osamu took it out and saw that it was Sonoko's.

"Yuanzi, what's the matter?"

"Xiu, you weren't home this early? I have something to tell you."

"What is it?"

"You should come back first, we'll talk at home."

"Ok."

Slide the call to connect and hold it to your ear:

[The previous chapter was immediately banned after being uploaded; I'm quite helpless about that.]

[By the way, has anyone guessed what the clues Bayonetta left behind were?]

[I feel the design isn't too difficult; some experts should be able to guess it. However, the clues are incomplete; there's still a little missing. More will appear later.]

Chapter 0132: Going to Catch Phantom Thief Kid

No. 2, No. 39, Fifth Chome.

The house is located on the third floor, in Baishixiu's home.

Shiraishi Osamu sat on the sofa, listening to the two girls talking across from him.

"Sonoko, you called me here just to talk about Kaito Kid?" Ran looked at her good friend beside her with a helpless expression.

Sonoko nodded and said, "It's him. He's the one who caused this whole mess. Even though he's quite popular among us girls, it's still a bit of a hassle."

Xiaolan said helplessly, "But I feel like even if I ask my dad for help, he probably wouldn't be able to handle such a skilled thief. And the last time at the clock tower in Ekoda Station, he escaped despite being surrounded by so many police officers. That shows how capable he is. So it seems like it's basically impossible for my dad to catch him."

"So, that's why!" Sonoko turned to Shiraishi Osamu with a smile, "Osamu, that's why I sincerely invite you to help out today. Do you want to come?"

"Well..."

Shiraishi Osamu hesitated, waiting for the voice in his mind to ring out.

But after waiting for a while, there was still no sound from the system, which left him feeling a little helpless.

Recently, the system has been issuing fewer and fewer tasks, and he has to wait a long time to encounter a system task if he wants to get a reward.

He had initially thought this would trigger the system's mechanisms, but there was still no response.

"Shu, please say yes~" Sonoko called out again, this time in a coquettish voice.

"Okay, okay, okay." Shiraishi Xiu nodded hurriedly: "Where is the location?"
