I'm in Detective Conan, and the system has appointed Batman.

"Alright, alright, let's forget about him for now and get going."

"Have Shiratori come over and help out. He and Officer Sato will go to the other side. Our two teams will split up and try to get everything done before we leave work."

"Xiao Lü and I made a promise to have dinner together tonight."

Inspector Megure muttered to himself and immediately led Wataru Takagi toward the parking lot.

At this moment, the conference room was just as lively as Takagi Wataru had predicted.

"...Hey you, what are you trying to do, playing the hero all the time?"

"You won't even cooperate with the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department officers in something like this? You're a detective now, not a criminal investigator like before. What reason do you have not to cooperate with the Metropolitan Police Department? Don't you know how dangerous this is?"

No sooner had Eri Kisaki finished speaking than Kogoro Mouri said somewhat impatiently.

"Please, you're annoying."

"I have my own plans, and you wouldn't understand even if I told you."

Hearing this, Eri Kisaki became even more furious.

"I've only said a few words, and you're already saying I'm annoying."

"I……"

Listening to the lively commotion inside the conference room.

Chen En didn't bother to check the situation in the conference room inside.

The reason he waited for Eri Kisaki to come over instead of leaving directly was that he planned to talk to her about serving as the legal counsel for Chen En Enterprises.

Eri Kisaki readily agreed to his request.

Of course, it's also possible that she was in a hurry to argue with Kogoro Mouri, so she didn't ask for details.

Ran Mouri, standing next to him, looked somewhat worried, peering through the window of the conference room door at the scene inside.

She felt that her mother still loved her father very much.

But why couldn't the two of them put aside their past grievances and get back together?

If...

Ran Mouri was lost in her fantasies.

She started fantasizing again about Eri Kisaki and Kogoro Mouri getting back together and living together in a wonderful future, and then she started thinking about what methods she could use to bring Eri Kisaki and Kogoro Mouri back together.

Conan, who was standing nearby, had a somewhat unsatisfactory opinion about Ran Mouri's thoughts.

This kind of thing definitely requires Kogoro Mouri to give his approval.

Uncle Mori's mentality of taking on danger alone and driving everyone else away doesn't seem to solve the safety issues. There's no way the two of them can get back together.

Conan just yawned.

Then, out of the corner of my eye, I saw a somewhat bloated figure appear.

...This is an old acquaintance.

Chapter 1008 The Overwhelming Suppressive Power of a Mother

A woman who appeared to be slightly overweight came into Conan's line of sight.

Judging from appearance alone, this person seems to have no connection with Conan.

But in reality, the other party is Conan's biological mother, Fumiyo Edogawa.

She is also Conan's real mother, the identity that Yukiko Kudo obtained after using disguise techniques. Her presence here at this moment is naturally because Yukiko Kudo has come to find her beloved son.

Upon seeing Yukiko Kudo appear, Conan couldn't help but sigh.

The oppressive power of a mother's bloodline was immediately apparent.

Even the Grim Reaper elementary school student has to be obedient and well-behaved in front of his own mother.

Officer Chiba, standing next to Conan, looked up at Fumiyo Edogawa with a somewhat bewildered expression and instinctively blocked Conan's path.

His eyes held a hint of innocent foolishness as he glanced at his phone, then looked up and asked.

"Excuse me, ma'am, who are you?"

Fumiyo Edogawa replied with a smile.

"I am Conan Edogawa's mother, Fumiyo Edogawa."

"I received a call from Detective Mouri, so I came to pick up Conan first."

...So you're Conan's mother, Fumiyo Edogawa?

A hint of doubt appeared in Officer Chiba's eyes.

He looked up at Fumiyo Edogawa, then down at Conan Edogawa, and felt that the two had nothing in common except for their surnames, and even their appearances were completely different.

Are these two really mother and son?

Although Inspector Megure had previously mentioned Conan's mother, Fumiyo Edogawa.

But actually meeting him still made him feel somewhat...

He subconsciously turned his head to look at Chen En beside him.

Noticing Officer Chiba's pleading look, Chen En nodded slightly, indicating that this person was Conan's mother.

Officer Chiba then stepped aside, opened the door, and asked Kogoro Mouri inside.

"Detective Mori, could you please stop for a moment?"

"Conan's mother, Fumiyo Edogawa, has arrived. I'm not sure if it's really her. Could you please help me confirm? Thank you."

Kogoro Mouri and Eri Kisaki, who had just been arguing fiercely, immediately ceased their fight.

The two of them pushed open the door at the same time and stepped out, their eyes falling on Fumiyo Edogawa.

Eri Kisaki had never seen this person before.

But I felt a strange sense of familiarity with this person, as if I had seen him somewhere before.

Kogoro Mouri waved his hand dismissively and said casually.

"That's right, that's right, this is Ms. Edogawa."

"She was the one who picked up Conan back then, and she even let Conan stay with me. She also gave me a check for 10 million yen in child support. How could I not remember her face?"

Inspector Chiba, Eri Kisaki: ?

What? There's something about this?

The two men's faces darkened.

However, seeing Conan behaving obediently next to Fumiyo Edogawa, they didn't pursue the matter further. After all, if she weren't his biological mother, Conan would definitely have revealed it.

"I'm really grateful to you these past few days, Mr. Mori."

Fumiyo Edogawa didn't care about the small amount of money; instead, she smiled and thanked Kogoro Mori.

"My partner and I are only in Tokyo for a business trip and are transiting for one day, so we'll need Mr. Mori to take care of Conan for us tomorrow. We'll also be looking after him."

Upon hearing this, Kogoro Mouri confidently pointed to himself with his thumb.

"No problem, leave it to me, the great detective Kogoro Mouri."

"However, if we're going to thank someone, we shouldn't just thank me, Ms. Edogawa. Over the years, this kid Chen En next to me has also helped Conan many times."

He patted Chen En on the shoulder.

Somewhat surprisingly, Kogoro Mouri included himself in his boast this time.

However, Chen En didn't say much, and simply took out a coffee from his six-slot belt as usual.

Don't ask, Chen En remains silent, just drinking his coffee.

Faced with Kogoro Mouri's praise of Chen En.

Fumiyo Edogawa feigned surprise before smiling and speaking to Chen En.

"In that case, Mr. Chen En."

"May I invite you to my home for dinner as a way for my partner and me to express our gratitude?"

Upon hearing Fumiyo Edogawa's words, Conan looked up at her in surprise.

What does it mean?

Could it be that Yukiko Kudo and Yusaku Kudo have something to discuss with Chen En?

Not only Conan understood the implied meaning, but Chen En did too.

Although somewhat surprised that Yusaku Kudo wanted to meet him, Chen En nodded and said this.

"No problem, we can go now."

Without further ado, the three of them immediately prepared to set off.

Just as Eri Kisaki was about to continue arguing with Kogoro Mouri, she suddenly remembered something and quickly spoke to Chen En.

"By the way, Mr. Chen En."

"Regarding the legal advisor you mentioned to me earlier."

"I need to visit your company in person before we can sign the specific contract terms. I hope you understand."

Chen En didn't turn around, but simply waved his hand to indicate that he understood.

Then, he and Fumiyo Edogawa disappeared from Eri Kisaki's sight.

Kogoro Mouri, standing nearby, just kept making sarcastic remarks.

"Why would Chen En, that brat, ask you to be his legal advisor?"

"You really have bad taste."
