Chapter 62 The Wisdom of the ‘Famous Detective’

Just when Conan was greeting Mao Lilan, Kitagawa Yuu also took the opportunity to look at Mao Lilan.

I have to say that Mao Lilan is indeed as set in the anime, very beautiful, not inferior to Ayako and Irena at all. Her eyes are as bright and clear as springs, as if they are the purest treasures in the world.

His whole body was filled with a gentle, virtuous, quiet and beautiful temperament, as if his whole person was exuding a pure white light, which was completely different from the aloof Xiao Ai behind him.

It's a pity that the timeline of this world is too weird. If Xiao Ai can't develop the antidote to APTX-4869, she may never be able to wait for her Kudo Shinichi.

The four of them followed Conan to the sofa area and sat down.

At the same time, Mao Lilan also took off her apron, quickly put the mop back into the utility room, and then made tea for them.

"Ahem. So, I wonder what commissions you have?"

Uncle Maori sat over at some point, with a mean expression on his face, and took the initiative to ask about the commission.

"It's like this. This is my classmate Haihara Ai. Her sister's boyfriend suddenly left without saying goodbye some time ago and is missing."

"After some investigation, we found that the person's identity was false, as were his address and name."

"We all felt that her sister had met an emotional cheater, but her sister didn't want to believe it and still had illusions about the man."

"So we want to entrust the Maori detective to help us find the guy, and then ask her sister to meet the guy and explain the matter face to face."

"If that guy was really cheating from beginning to end, then it would be better to make her sister give up and stop holding on to this relationship."

After hearing this, Mao Lilan suddenly showed a look of sympathy on her face. She felt deeply unworthy of Miyano Akemi and thought to herself, 'Fortunately, Shinichi is not a liar.'

On the other side, Mouri Kogoro felt relieved after listening.

Looking for someone? He is familiar with this matter! With his good relationship with the Metropolitan Police Department, as long as he is within Tokyo, he can't find anyone?

Of course, he would be even more skilled if it was looking for cats and dogs!

Before he became famous as a famous detective, he was the most famous pet detective in the Tokyo detective world!

"Ahem. What about the cost?"

As he spoke, Mouri Kogoro rubbed his hands subconsciously, showing a money-obsessed look.

"The cost is easy to negotiate. The deposit is 500,000 yuan. If we can find someone within a month, we will pay another 5 million yuan."

"Five five five, five million?!"

After hearing this astonishing number, Mouri Kogoro jumped up from the sofa. His eyes couldn't help but shine, his tongue stuck out, and he couldn't even speak clearly.

Mao Lilan on the side looked at his gaffe and turned away in embarrassment.

However, as the finance minister of her family, she also knew that the current financial situation of her family was not very good, so it was not easy to blame Moori Kogoro.

After all, this is five million! Including the deposit, it’s five and a half million!

You must know that the average annual income of Tokyo families at this time is only about 6 million, and 5.5 million is almost equivalent to their family's income for a whole year!

The most important thing is, if you make a year's worth of money in one month, wouldn't you be able to do whatever you want in the remaining eleven months, relax and enjoy yourself?

Beer, horse racing, and Okino Yoko’s concerts and TV series.

When he thought of this, the smile on Mouri Kogoro's face suddenly became even more enthusiastic, and drool almost formed in the corners of his mouth.

This commission must be won!

No one can stop the famous detective Mouri Kogoro from making money!

"But we only have one photo of that guy, and the two fake names he once used, 'Akai Shuichi' and 'Okiya Subaru'——"

"It doesn't matter! Please believe in me, the famous detective Mouri Kogoro! One month! Even if I, Moori Kogoro, dig deep into the ground and search every corner of Tokyo, I will definitely find it within a month!"

This damn emotional liar!"

Mouri Kogoro, who was already fascinated by money, spoke loudly before Kitagawa Yuu finished speaking.

If Kitagawa Yuu didn't know him too well, he might actually believe this beautiful words.

In fact, Mouri Kogoro also has his own little abacus.

In fact, the deposit of 500,000 yuan alone was more than the commission fee for a month of hard work. So even if he couldn't complete the commission, he actually didn't lose at all.

So don’t underestimate the wisdom of a ‘famous detective’!

As for whether failing to complete the commission will damage the dignity of the detective?

A detective said that dignity is not as important as making money!

"Then I'll leave it to the famous Maori detective~"

As he spoke, Kitagawa Yu took out the 500,000 deposit and contract, as well as a photo of Akai Shuichi that Xiao Ai had specially copied before departure, handed it to Mouri Kogoro, and left Xiao Ai's contact number.

Afterwards, Conan was left to help Mouri Kogoro. Kitagawa Yu picked up Aniya who had already dozed off, and then got on Dr. Agasa's Beetle with Xiao Ai and Irena and left the office.

"Is that uncle really reliable?" Xiao Ai, who took the initiative to be the co-pilot because she gave up the back seat to Yu Kitagawa who was holding Aniya, couldn't help but ask as soon as she got in the car.

This was the first time she had met Kogoro Mori face to face, rather than in a newspaper.

Seeing Mouri Kogoro's despicable money-grubbing appearance with her own eyes, she really had a very unreliable feeling.

Kitagawa Yu thought of what Mouri Kogoro looked like just now, and also showed a smile, but he still explained: "That uncle is quite good at finding people, and his relationship with the Metropolitan Police Department is also quite good, plus

There is also Conan assisting him, so he should be relatively reliable. Don't forget that Conan is one of the best detectives in Neon."

Xiao Ai and Kitagawa Yu glanced at each other through the rearview mirror, and then nodded gently, no longer dwelling on this topic. Anyway, the result will be known in a month, which is not a long time.

"Then what do we do now?"

Kitagawa Yu smiled slightly: "Of course it's time to take a good rest now, reverse the jet lag, and then have fun for a month. This is your sister's wish that even alarmed the gods~~~"

Half an hour later, the group arrived at the highest-end Acupido Hotel nearby and checked in.

Dr. A Li's villa looks very big, but in fact most of the rooms have been demolished and converted into laboratories and warehouses, and it is not big enough to accommodate the four of them.

As for the cost of staying in the hotel, as well as the previous high investigation commission fee, of course Conan's parents provided it.

I have to say one more thing, Conan's parents are really rich. Not only do they have a large flat with an area of ​​thousands of square meters in Manhattan, New York, but they also have a mansion in Beverly Hills, Los Angeles.

Not counting others, these two properties alone are worth US$70-80 million!

This made Kitagawa Yuto consider whether to bring Conan's father's best-selling novels back to the main world.
