Ke Xuezhuo's son-in-law

Chapter 35 An unexpected thing

After eating breakfast, Fujiwara returned to the office and was enveloped in thoughts, and finally couldn't bear it and fell asleep. As the afternoon approached, Fujiwara slowly woke up from his sleep.

"Sleep so good."

After washing up briefly, he couldn't wait to walk across the street to the Mori Detective Agency across the street, ready to see his new neighbor, Edogawa Conan.

According to memory, he should have been favored by Kogoro because of his performance when he helped the chairman find his daughter yesterday. Coupled with Xiaolan's intercession, he agreed to Conan's request to stay overnight, and Conan also made up his mind to use Xiaolan through this incident. Wu Lang's reputation found the black organization.

After arriving at the office, he found that Xiaolan had just returned from shopping for groceries, so he talked to her about Conan, but learned that Kogoro did not agree to Conan's request to stay overnight.

"What, Conan doesn't live here anymore?"

"Well, Dad said that he lost the five million commission fee from the last bet and has no ability to support others."

Kogoro, who was reading the newspaper at this time, heard his daughter’s complaint and retorted:

"My home is not an orphanage, and you are not the nanny of the Kudo family. And the more I look at that kid, the more disgusting I become. He is exactly the same as that brat."

Mouri Kogoro saw through the conspiracy behind this incident last night, that is, Kudo Yusaku created an illegitimate child by messing around outside, and then specially sent it to their home in order not to be discovered by Yukiko.

"Dad! Conan is the child of Shinichi's distant relatives. His parents are abroad, which means Conan is left unsupervised, so his family sent Conan to Shinichi's family."

Xiaolan also couldn't understand the brain circuit of Conan's family, and actually handed Conan over to a high school detective who couldn't even take care of herself, so she agreed to help take care of Conan.

"That's not okay. You have no reason to help their family raise their children. I won't agree to this kind of thing until you get married."

"Dad~"

Seeing the father and daughter quarreling over Conan, Fujiwara, as an outsider, couldn't get in the way. After all, this was their family's private matter, and he couldn't say anything, but he preferred Conan to stay.

Mouri Kogoro became slightly famous after Conan came over, and with Conan's constant help, he gradually became a great detective famous throughout the Neon Kingdom, and was even known as the Sleeping Kogoro. These are all thanks to him. He gave it.

So subjectively it was more advantageous for Conan to live there, but on the other hand, it was precisely because of Conan's intrusion that Mouri Kogoro was discovered by the black organization step by step, and was almost sniped to death by them once...

While Conan brings fame and fortune, he also brings dangers that are not easy to detect.

As long as the black organization checks the time when Kudo Shinichi disappeared and the time when Mouri Kogoro became famous and makes a little judgment, he can find something wrong.

But there are no absolutes in everything, and Fujiwara has no reason to resent an original character. This time he is here, so many things can be avoided.

He wants to change the script!
  "Humph, dad is just making excuses for losing the commission fee in gambling."

Upon hearing Xiaolan talk about losing money, Kogoro retorted on the spot:
  "You don't understand, that means leaving money at the racecourse temporarily. Anyway, I will win the money back in a few days."

This sentence instantly angered Xiaolan, who was cooking by the way. She put down the dishes she had just washed and walked out of the kitchen and angrily yelled at Kogoro: "Are you going to gamble again? Does Dad still have this family in his heart?"

When Kogoro heard the scolding, he immediately retorted: "So what, it's all my business how I spend the money I earn. You kid, just leave me alone. If you find me annoying, just go back to your mother." .”

As soon as these words came out, Fujiwara noticed something was wrong and intervened to smooth things over: "Can everyone calm down for a while?"

But Xiaolan, who was clearly on top, naturally didn't want to give up.

"Dad often gambles and doesn't even care about my life. The last time I went on a trip, my dad spent all the travel money just playing mahjong."

Kogoro rarely refuted when he learned that Li was wrong.

Xiaolan seemed to have vented her anger and returned to the kitchen silently to continue preparing dinner.

Fujiwara looked at the newspaper in his hand with a blank expression, not knowing what to do.

No one spoke during dinner, everyone ate in silence, and Kogoro didn't clamor for a beer.

After dinner, Fujiwara approached Kogoro to discuss whether he could take over future commissions. After all, his original purpose was to steal Kogoro's commission and he unknowingly purchased the three-story building opposite. “Oh, you mean you can take over small commissions like that, right?”

"Yes, I want to comprehensively practice what I have learned during this period."

Last time he helped Kogoro solve the ghost hotel issue, and the system recognized that he was the one who solved that commission, so as long as he completes it two more times, the mission will be successful.

Xiaolan went back to her room to pack her things. She finally selected clothes and put them in her suitcase.

After finishing his meal, Kogoro felt the urge to urinate, so he took toilet paper and flushed it in.

Just as Kogoro entered the bathroom, Xiaolan walked out from the bedroom pushing her luggage.

"Xiaolan, what are you..."

"I plan to stay with my mother for a few days to let my father realize his mistakes."

What Mouri Kogoro said today was too much, and even Xiaolan, who was always used to being patient, couldn't stand it.

I thought that with her by his side, Kogoro would be more restrained, but he didn't expect that it would become more and more excessive...

"Oh."

Although he was reluctant in every possible way, Fujiwara helped Xiaolan move her luggage downstairs and watched her leave with his own eyes.

"Goodbye."

……

He moved here for Xiaolan and took Kogoro as his disciple to take care of Xiaolan's feelings. Now that Xiaolan is gone, is it possible that he really wants to be this confused detective's apprentice?
  Thinking of this, he returned to his office lonely, lying on the bed looking at the ceiling of his house as if he was lost.

……

Kogoro came out of the toilet and saw that neither of them were there, so he didn't care. He returned to his desk and continued to look at some recent commissions. He planned to give Fujiwara a few simple ones and let him practice them. After all, teaching alone does not mean practice. Not a detective.

"Ding dong!"

The doorbell rings.

He thought there was a commission coming to his door, so he shouted: "I'm sorry I won't accept the commission tonight, please come back."

"Maoli, I'm A Li. I'm looking for you today for something else."

"Dr. Agasa?" Mouri Kogoro put down the order in surprise, walked over to open the door, and found Dr. Agasa standing in front of the door with a child.

"You are?"

"It's like this. This child's parents are abroad and have entrusted him to me. But you also know that I have to do scientific research and it is difficult to take care of him, so I have entrusted him to your home and asked you to help take care of him... …”

When Maori saw that it was the boy from yesterday again, he was about to refuse when he saw Dr. Agasa take out a bankbook and hand it to Kogoro, "This is the care fee entrusted to me by his parents. Now I will give this to you."

Kogoro took the bankbook and saw that it was two million yen. He immediately changed his expression and respectfully invited the two of them back to the room to sit down.

"Hum, there's no need to be so polite. It's just a matter of a pair of bowls and chopsticks when eating. Don't worry. From now on, this kid is my biological son. I will definitely take good care of him."

Conan was speechless for a while when he saw Kogoro's inconsistent expression, but fortunately, he finally moved in thanks to his half-year pocket money.

Just thinking about living under the same roof with Xiaolan in the future made him excited and shy.
