"Ha, what's the point of believing what that brat says? I'm too lazy to bother with him."
Kogoro Mouri muttered to himself.
However, Conan came up behind Kogoro Mouri and gave him a push, causing Kogoro to stumble forward.
Kogoro Mouri was about to deliver a powerful punch to Conan, but under the watchful eyes of Sera Masumi and Ran Mouri, he abandoned the idea.
After all, her daughter's friend seems to really like Conan, and if she hits Conan in front of him, it might damage Ran's reputation at school.
Thinking of this, Koro Mouri clenched his fists angrily before speaking.
"Alright, alright, let's go."
"It's just a trip to the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department to meet that brat Hakuba, right? Do you think I, the great detective Kogoro Mouri, am afraid of that kid?"
Hearing this, Takagi Wataru and Inspector Megure exchanged a glance, and then Inspector Megure went to Kogoro Mouri's side and whispered something.
"Brother Mori."
"You can say these things at the police station, but don't say them at the Metropolitan Police Department. You know, Hakuba Saguru is the only son of Superintendent General Hakuba."
"Even though you used to work in the Criminal Investigation Department, you never know when someone might put a sack over your head."
Mori Kogoro:?
What? Has the rampant corruption within the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department reached this level?
He had been away from the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department for ten years, and he never expected that the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department had become such a mess. It was truly disheartening.
There was nothing he could do, so he had to tone it down a bit.
This wasn't out of fear of Hakuba Saguru, but rather out of consideration for Inspector Megure and Wataru Takagi, since it was Inspector Megure and Wataru Takagi who brought him back to the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department.
"Let's go, kid."
"Xiao Lan, you'll have to take care of dinner yourself."
Kogoro Mouri grabbed Conan by the back of his collar, lifted him up, and walked out the door with Inspector Megure, not forgetting to give Ran a word of advice.
Conan didn't struggle even when he was lifted up.
Although often referred to as Hakinam, Conan is not a real cat and will not react to being grabbed by the collar.
He glanced sideways in Chen En's direction.
Chen En's ability to arrive at the scene so punctually was certainly not because he and Suzuki Sonoko had any telepathic connection.
According to Conan's guess, Chen En most likely installed listening devices or even surveillance cameras in the Mouri Detective Agency.
He must find that surveillance camera or bugging device next time he has time.
Although he had already tried twice before.
Seeing Conan and Kogoro Mouri leave, Eisuke Hondo quickly followed.
After all, Hondo Eisuke had investigated the case with Mouri Kogoro before, and Mouri Kogoro didn't seem to dislike him.
However, Sera Masumi had no reason to follow them, so she could only stand there and watch them leave.
After a while, Sera Masumi sighed and said,
"What a pity. I was hoping to ask Mr. Kogoro Mouri about his experience as a detective, but it seems I won't have the chance now."
"Xiaolan, Yuanzi, I'm going back now."
Upon hearing this, Ran Mouri quickly said,
"Sera-kun, let me see you off."
At this point, Ran Mouri turned to look at Chen En and Sonoko Suzuki, but before she could ask any questions...
Sonoko Suzuki had already grabbed Chen En's arm with a grin, made a gesture, and said.
"Tonight, Arn is coming with me to the exhibition hall to see if the defenses against Phantom Thief Kid are adequate."
"So I won't be going with you to see Shiliang off today, Xiaolan."
Hearing this, Ran Mouri nodded.
Chen En took out his phone and saw that Ai Haibara had texted him saying she had gone back to her apartment to rest. Chen En didn't say anything more about it.
This time it really took a long time, after all, we still had to wait for Inspector Megure and Kogoro Mouri to return.
However, the manor to be used as the base has already been selected, and we can move in directly tomorrow. The manor will probably be directly connected to the Bat Cave the day after tomorrow.
Therefore, there is no need to watch any further.
"Let's go."
Chen En said.
He and Sonoko Suzuki walked down the internal staircase, while Sera Masumi and Ran walked out together. Their gazes fell on the backs of Chen En and Sonoko Suzuki, and their eyes narrowed slightly.
Realistically, she felt that Chen En was just a delusional teenager who thought he was Batman.
But for some reason, she had a gut feeling that Chen En must be a very special guy.
"Let's check it later."
Sera Masumi said in a low voice.
Chapter 566 The White Horse Scout's Negligence
After Chen En and Suzuki Sonoko got into the car, they drove directly towards the Suzuki Foundation Exhibition Hall.
On the way, Sonoko Suzuki, remembering what had happened that day, asked curiously,
"Aun, don't you think Sera Masumi and Hondou Eisuke, those two transfer students, seem a little strange today?"
"I always feel like the two of them are intentionally getting close to Conan."
"That's strange, is Conan really that popular with transfer students?"
Sonoko Suzuki stroked her chin and asked curiously.
"Could it be that Conan's true identity is actually Shinichi Kudo, who used a rejuvenation drug?"
"That's unlikely."
"Even if a drug that reverses aging existed, Shinichi Kudo wouldn't have the nerve to take a bath with Ran, would he?"
Chen En: ?
My assessment is hard to say.
Shinichi Kudo usually has a strong bottom line, but under certain circumstances, his bottom line can be lowered indefinitely.
For example, the part about taking a bath with Ran Mouri.
Chen En sighed and said,
"More than that, you should consider getting yourself a bodyguard."
"Although I have been able to arrive at the scene in time in the past, I cannot guarantee that I will be able to arrive in time every time."
"Just like this time, if it weren't for Sera Masumi, Hondo Eisuke, and Kudo Shinichi buying time, the consequences would have been unimaginable."
Chen En narrowed his eyes slightly as he spoke.
Superheroes are not gods, after all.
God can save everyone, but superheroes cannot. Superheroes can only do their best to save everyone who needs to be saved.
Hearing this, Sonoko Suzuki nodded slightly, although she thought it was quite romantic that Chen En always came to the rescue in time.
However, it is undeniable that Chen En seems to be getting busier and busier lately, after all, one vicious incident after another has occurred.
She didn't want to become a burden to Chen En.
Especially after being kidnapped so many times, she didn't want to be a hostage like those in superhero stories, kidnapped by supervillains and used to threaten superheroes again.
"I'll talk to my uncle about it later."
"Oh, by the way, Arn, don't you think I'd be perfect for a girl group?"
Sonoko Suzuki suddenly remembered what she had been thinking about that morning, and then asked with a grin.
Chen En: ?
A girl band? You?
Forgive my bluntness, but I doubt you meet the standards of a girl band in terms of either instrumental skills or singing ability.
Chen En blinked.
They can't exactly fake playing and singing when the girl band performs, can they?
However, to be fair, K-On!'s live performances do indeed follow this procedure...
“I think you have a lot of room for improvement in this area, but you may need to put in a little more effort.”
Chen En said tactfully.
Sonoko Suzuki: ?
Although Chen En seemed to agree with what he said, something just didn't feel right. What was going on?
It must be my imagination, after all, Chen En never lies.
The vehicle quickly stopped in the parking lot outside the Suzuki Foundation exhibition hall.
Chen En took the lead in opening the driver's side door, then went to Suzuki Sonoko's car door, opened the door for her, and then spoke.
"Then you can get off the bus."
Upon hearing this, Sonoko Suzuki blushed slightly, but still nodded demurely and helped Chen En out of the car.
This scene was clearly witnessed by Hakuba Saguru inside the Suzuki Foundation exhibition hall.
The high school detective, whose hobby is cosplaying as Sherlock Holmes, winked, reached out and teased the falcon Watson on his shoulder, and then said.
"Is it just my imagination?"
