Science: The Little Shota of the Maori Family

〖Activity Reward: Master - Sketch, 10,000 points〗

The reward wasn't generous, but out of curiosity about the disappearance of the burn marks on Hibiki Eri, he still asked indirectly, "Aunt Hibiki, have you ever been burned before?"

· ········Request flowers· ······

"Huh?" Kisaki Eri was slightly taken aback, not knowing why Watanabe Toru suddenly asked this, but she still shook her head and said, "No, why do you ask this suddenly?"

Watanabe Toru explained: "When I first learned to walk, I accidentally knocked over hot water. It hurt so much that I cried loudly, so I wanted to ask Aunt Fei if she had had such an experience."

Kisaki Eri suddenly realized: "So that's how it is. Then Xiaotuo must be careful in the future."

"Yeah, I will."

From Kisaki Eri's tone, it can be seen that she has never been scalded by hot water, but Xiaolan still remembers that scene from her childhood.

.. ...... 0

There is only one explanation, that is, Xiaolan might have recognized the wrong person at that time.

But is this possible? After all, Kisaki Eri is her mother, so the possibility of her making a mistake is negligible. Unless, the person Xiaolan saw just looked like Kisaki Eri.

and many more! !

A memory from the past suddenly awakened in Watanabe Toru's mind.

That day, Kisaki Eri had a fever and a cold. While she was sleeping, she mumbled about her "sister". I didn't pay much attention to it at the time. Now I think about it, could it be that what Xiaolan saw at that time was actually Kisaki Eri's sister?

But where is that sister now? In her impression, it seems that Kisaki Eri doesn't have a sister either.

Seeing Watanabe Toru in a trance, Kisaki Eri asked curiously, "Toru, what are you thinking about?"

Watanabe Toru thought for a moment and asked bluntly, "Auntie, do you have any brothers or sisters?"

Kisaki Eri's expression froze for a moment, then she recovered and smiled, "No, I'm an only child, so when I was little, I envied my friends who had older brothers and sisters."

"Aunt Fei is the same as me."

"Does Xiao Che also envy those friends who have older brothers and sisters?"

Watanabe Toru shook his head: "No, because I have many good friends."

310. Is Eri Kisaki not Ran’s mother?

The next day.

As the morning light gradually seeped in, the sky in the east began to turn pale, and the warm sunlight filtered through the gauze curtains into the bedroom, driving away the darkness.

On the 1.8-meter-tall bed, Watanabe Toru's small body curled up in Kisaki Eri's arms, tightly pressed against her. One of his small hands seemed to unconsciously grab Kisaki Eri's chest.

The cell phone alarm on the pillow vibrated. Before the volume could gradually increase, Kisaki Eri quickly reached out to turn off the alarm, then slowly opened her eyes.

This is her lifestyle habit, getting up on time at 6:30 every day.

Kisaki Eri yawned slightly. The nightgown she was wearing was a little messy at the moment, and she could even clearly feel that part being held in the palm of her hand.

"This child..."

Looking at Watanabe Toru who was sleeping soundly in her arms, "Seven-Three-Three" Kisaki Eri smiled helplessly, moved his hand away from her chest, then quietly got up from the bed and left the bedroom.

The moment the door closed, Watanabe Toru opened his eyes, looked at his palms and smiled.

I can't hold it at all.

At eight o'clock in the morning, Kisaki Eri walked into the room again. She gently patted Watanabe Toru's shoulder and woke him up: "Toru, it's time to get up."

Watanabe Toru opened his sleepy eyes: "Aunt Fei, good morning."

"Good morning, Tohru." Kisaki Eri said with a smile, "Breakfast is ready."

"Okay." Watanabe Toru looked lazy: "I'll get up right away."

"You're so good." Hibiki Eri kissed Watanabe Toru on the forehead. "Then Auntie will leave first."

"Uh-huh."

When Watanabe Toru finished washing up and went out, a sandwich and a glass of milk were already on the dining table.

Watanabe Toru pulled out a chair and sat down. He picked up the sandwich, took a bite, and said happily, "It's delicious."

Kisaki Eri smiled and said, "If it's not enough, Auntie will give you this as well."

"No, this is enough for me." Watanabe Toru took a sip of milk and said, "Aunt Fei, I'll go back after breakfast and won't disturb you from working."

"It's okay, you can go to the office with your aunt."

"No thanks." Watanabe Toru shook his head: "I'd better go find some friends to play with."

"Okay." Fei Yingli didn't force it: "Then I'll take you back later."

"Thank you, Aunt Fei."

……

After breakfast, Kisaki Eri sent Watanabe Toru downstairs to the office.

"Auntie Hibiki, are you really not going to go up and see your uncle?" Toru Watanabe got out of the car and looked at Hibiki Eri who was sitting in the driver's seat.

Of course, he was just being polite.

Kisaki Eri shook her head: "Auntie is busy, come back when you have time."

"Okay, then be careful on the road, Auntie."

"it is good."

After watching Kisaki Eri's car drive away, Watanabe Toru turned around and went upstairs.

"I'm back."

Watanabe Toru opened the door and entered the room. The room was quiet. Kogoro Mori, who should have been sitting in his office chair reading a newspaper or watching horse racing at this time, was nowhere to be seen.

Weird? Uncle hasn't gotten up yet?

Watanabe Toru went to the third floor with doubts in his heart, but still did not see Mouri Kogoro, so he took out his cell phone and called him.

The person who answered the phone claimed to be a friend of Mouri Kogoro. From him, I learned that Mouri Kogoro had been drinking with him and other friends last night, and they drank until late at night and were still drunk.

Watanabe Toru hung up the phone as if he was used to it. As expected, as long as he and Xiaolan were not at home, Mouri Kogoro would happily enjoy his own nightlife.

However, the fact that Kogoro Mouri was not at home made it convenient for him to take action today.

Whether Xiaolan's mother is really Eri Kisaki, Kogoro Mouri's bedroom may give him some answers.

Because there were no women's things, Kogoro Mouri's bedroom was simply decorated, with nothing but a desk and a closet.

Toru Watanabe opened the drawer of the desk. In addition to some books about crime and criminal law, there were also some notebooks recording cases. They should have been left behind by Kogoro Mouri when he was a detective.

There was nothing else in the closet except Kogoro Mouri's clothes and bedding for all seasons.

Watanabe Toru rubbed his chin. If his guess was correct, then Maori Kogoro would definitely have left information about Xiaolan's biological mother.

Although that uncle is vulgar, lustful, and has a lot of bad habits, his loyalty cannot be denied. It's probably because I just haven't found it.

Watanabe Toru simply took out all the quilts in the closet and finally found a box covered with a layer of dust in a hidden corner.

The box was locked, but this was not a difficult task for Toru Watanabe. He had the skills to pick locks and had a master key in his hand, so it was easy for him to open this kind of lock.

With a click, Watanabe Toru opened the box.

There wasn't much in the box, just a photo, a ring, and a letter.

Watanabe Toru picked up the photo. It showed a man and a woman. The man was a young Mori Kogoro, looking energetic and beardless. Next to him, a girl who looked very similar to Kisaki Eri was hugging Mori Kogoro's arm, making a "yeah" sign and smiling sweetly.

"Isn't this Kisaki Eri?" Watanabe Toru muttered to himself, put down the photo, picked up the envelope and took out the letter inside.

Two minutes later, Watanabe Toru sighed softly, put the letter back into the envelope, and felt a little complicated.

Just as he guessed, Kisaki Eri was indeed not Xiaolan's biological mother. The real mother died of illness when Xiaolan was two years old.

In order for Xiaolan to have a "mother", her elder sister "Eri Kisaki", who was far away abroad at the time, returned to China and took on the role of Xiaolan's mother. The two sisters were only one year apart in age and looked extremely similar, making it difficult for outsiders to tell who was who.

But even so, there is a risk of being discovered.

Therefore, Kisaki Eri rarely appears in front of acquaintances with Mouri Kogoro, in order to avoid acquaintances mentioning things that Kisaki Eri should know.

When Xiaolan was seven years old, Eri Kisaki proposed separation on the grounds that she had quarreled with Kogoro Mouri.

Doing so, on the one hand, can reduce the risk of exposing one's identity, and on the other hand, it can also avoid the embarrassment of living together when they are not a couple.

311. Two detectives were killed

October 1th, Thursday.

As soon as Toru Watanabe returned home from school, he saw Kogoro Mouri put down the phone with a sullen look on his face and sighed.

"Uncle, what's wrong?" Watanabe Toru put down his schoolbag and asked curiously.

Xiaolan came over, put the water in front of Maori Kogoro, and explained: "Xiaotuo, did you know that a detective was shot and killed yesterday?"

Watanabe Toru nodded: "I remember the incident happened in a phone booth on Beika Street."

"Yes, I heard that another detective was killed in the underground garage today, so Dad wanted to ask Officer Megure for details."

Maori Kogoro took a sip of water, his expression a little depressed: "However, Inspector Megure said he is very busy now and rejected my request."

Xiaolan comforted him, "That's understandable. After all, two detectives have died."

Maori Kogoro scratched his head: "But Inspector Megure's attitude this time is completely different from usual. By the way, tomorrow is Inspector Shiratori's sister's wedding celebration party, are you going?"

"Of course it has to be 26." Xiaolan said without hesitation: "I also want to see what the bride and groom look like. Xiaoche must want to see it too, right?"

"Huh?" Watanabe Toru was stunned for a moment, then nodded: "Yeah."

He already remembered that this was the plot of the theater version.

Maori Kogoro shook his head: "It's really a headache to hold a banquet at this time. I hope everything goes well."

……

The next evening, Kogoro Mori and his two companions, as well as Sonoko, who was attending the banquet on behalf of the Suzuki Group, came to the Beika Sun Plaza Hotel together.

Ding!

The elevator reached the 15th floor and the doors opened.

A group of people got off the elevator. Just as Kogoro Maori signed the list, he heard a familiar taunt behind him.

"Your handwriting is still so bold."

"Mom." Xiaolan turned around in surprise and looked at Kisaki Eri who was dressed up.

Maori Kogoro snorted: "They invited you too."

"Yes." Kisaki Eri stepped forward to sign. "The bride, Sara, is a future associate lawyer in the legal profession. Naturally, we know each other."

Her handwriting is neat and steady, with a hint of elegance, and is much more beautiful than that of Kogoro Mouri.

Several people deposited their bags and entered the venue.

Many guests, including many acquaintances, had already gathered in the venue.

Maori Kogoro looked in one direction: "Inspector Megure is here too."

Kisaki Eri looked around and said calmly, "Any police officer would have seen it at a glance. He has a fierce look on his face, and the atmosphere is so depressing that it makes people uncomfortable."

Maori Kogoro said in an understanding tone: "After all, there have been two cases of murder of detectives. They have no intention of eating, drinking and having fun."

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw an acquaintance, adjusted his tie with his hands, and said, "It's Minister Odagiri. I have to go over and say hello."

"Who is it?" Xiaolan looked confused.

"Minister Odagiri," Kisaki Eri introduced. "When Detective Pizu was a police officer, he was the head of the Criminal Division. Now he's been promoted to head of the Criminal Division."

Snapped!

At this moment, the lights in the venue were turned off, and a beam of light shone on the door. The bride and groom walked in with a smile. At the host's introduction, the guests applauded loudly and for a long time.
