Conan light and dark

Chapter 17
The Suzuki consortium is a large consortium, involving many industries, such as construction, jewelry, aviation, etc. It is a top existence in Japan.

There was no such consortium in the previous life, or there used to be a similar consortium, but it became fragmented due to the war.

Of course, the present has nothing to do with the previous life.

Four Seasons didn't think too much about the past life, the important thing is what needs to be done now.

"Sure enough, I should have falsely reported my age at the beginning. 15 years old is too young, and it is inconvenient to do anything!"

Four Seasons sighed, and then left the house directly.

……

Maori Detective Agency.

It was already afternoon, probably after school.

Four Seasons came here at this time, and Kogoro Mori was the only one at home.

At this time, Mori Kogoro was drinking, eating snacks, and watching TV alone.

On the TV, what seemed to be a star program called Okino Yoko was playing.

Of course, Four Seasons didn't pay much attention to this, but sat on the side, also drinking beer, and disgusted while drinking.

"Beer really doesn't suit my taste. Uncle, don't you have Cider or Sherry at home? Personally, I drink Cider more often. Of course, Sherry is better. If you can't do it, you can have some Vermouth."

"Crack..."

Mori Kogoro squeezed the empty beer can in his hand.

"Where did you come up with so much nonsense, you brat? If you have something to eat and something to drink, can't you keep your mouth shut?"

"The problem is I don't like it."

"Don't I have to prepare what you like for you to come and eat and drink?"

"That's right, that's exactly what I mean."

"..."

So it is really a tragedy in life to have such a shameless nephew!

Mori Kogoro looked helpless, and casually threw the crushed empty beer can on the table.

Then he opened another can and drank it.

"So, what are you doing here when you have nothing to do?"

"Oh, I just plan to come here and be a detective's assistant for you, uncle. After all, we also have to support our family. As for the salary, it's fine to just give it 80 a month."

Four Seasons stated his purpose in this way.

Being an assistant to Mori Kogoro, you can follow him around, and sometimes it's convenient to go anywhere.

However, Mori Kogoro really wanted to drag Shiki out and beat him up.

But he still didn't do that after all, just sighed helplessly.

"So you don't study well at home, kid, what are you doing here?"

"Ok?"

It seems that it feels a bit strange for Mori Kogoro to say this suddenly.

Looking at this seemingly decadent uncle, Siji still smiled.

"No way, there are some things that have to be done by someone, for example... to take care of two distant cousins."

"Those two little girls can't live without you."

"Indeed, even without me, they can still live strong. I have always believed so firmly, but what should be done is still to be done!"

Siji seemed a little emotional, picked up the beer can and poured it again.

In the world, there are people and things that always need to be done.

Just as good people need someone to do it, bad people also need someone to do it, because there will be no good people without bad people, and similarly, there will be no bad people without good people.

Life is like a play, everyone is playing a role, some people choose to play good people, some people choose to play bad people, of course, some people are playing neither good nor bad, or both good and bad people.

But in the end, it doesn't matter when life is over.

After all, death is like a lamp going out.

Mori Kogoro didn't continue to say anything, and he didn't know whether he agreed with the words of the four seasons, or he was too lazy to continue talking nonsense with him.

After such a long silence, Xiaolan and Conan returned to the office one after another.

It's already school time.

"Hey, the four seasons are here."

"Yes, Sister Lan, I have nothing to do, so come and have a look."

Four Seasons greeted with a smile.

Conan, on the other hand, looked at the four seasons with his eyelids shrugged. He now feels a little suspicious when he sees the people he knows. It is the sequelae left by the golden incident, although several days have passed.

Especially the height of the four seasons is about the same as the height of that person at that time, so Conan also thinks that he is a bit suspicious.

But suspicion is just suspicion after all, and there is no evidence to prove it.

So Conan didn't say anything in the end.

But Xiaolan is a little curious about the living conditions of the four seasons.

"Nothing to do? Those who don't go to school for four seasons...don't they look for a job?"

"I'm looking, now uncle is interviewing me to see if I can be a detective assistant or something, right, uncle?"

Siji said and looked at Mori Kogoro again.

Xiaolan also looked at Mori Kogoro, and then looked a little unhappy.

"Father, why did you start drinking in broad daylight? You even dragged Siji to drink together. Siji and you too. You are obviously underage, how can you drink?"

"This... Actually, I only drink a little once in a while, and I don't like beer, but Cider, Sherry, etc. It is said that it is good for preventing arteriosclerosis!"

"That's wine, it's red wine, can cider work too?"

"This... I don't know."

Siji shook his head honestly, he really didn't know.

Xiaolan was also a little speechless about this.

Then he went straight to it, put away all the unopened beer snacks, put them back in the refrigerator, and greeted Mouri Kogoro's lament.

Then Xiaolan complained again and cleaned up the table.

"So Sister Lan really has the potential to become a good wife and mother!"

Siji said with emotion while watching all this.

Xiaolan felt a little embarrassed when she heard this.

"No... don't say it like that, it's embarrassing."

After speaking, he suddenly thought of something, so he changed the subject directly.

"By the way, Four Seasons, if you have nothing to do, that means you're free tomorrow, right?"

"Yeah, what's wrong?"

"No, Sonoko invited me to play in Shibuya, do you want to go together? Bring today and tomorrow too."

"Let's go play..."

Four Seasons scratched his head.

Although he is free, going out to play always feels like a waste of time.

After thinking about it carefully, he still refused.

"I won't go, if possible, take today and tomorrow together."

"Eh? Is this okay?"

"Hmm, no problem."

Four Seasons nodded and said that there is no need to worry.

To put it bluntly, he didn't have much interest in shopping.

Xiaolan didn't say much about it.

So things were decided happily.

Mori Kogoro still hasn't stated whether Shiji can serve as his assistant.

Four Seasons didn't stay here too long, and soon said goodbye and left.

……

That night, Shiji told Yamada Today and Yamada Asuka about asking Xiaolan to take them to play.

Regarding the arrangement of the four seasons, the two sisters did not object or refuse.

The next morning, after basic training, Shiki ate Yamada Today and Yamada Asuka, and headed straight to Mori Detective Agency.

Then Yamada today, Yamada tomorrow and Xiaolan left together, leaving only three men in the office.

As a result, Mori Kogoro drank with Shiji again.

Regarding this, Conan just showed his iconic hehe smile, always feeling that the two master uncles and nephews are really master uncles and nephews.

Anyway, the day was spent watching TV, drinking beer and eating snacks.

However, in the afternoon, it suddenly began to rain.

Siji was a little worried about this, but after thinking about it, it seemed that Xiaolan and the others were also carrying umbrellas, so they didn't think much about it.

It was not until evening that Xiaolan and the others came back from outside.

Moreover, Xiaolan seemed to be in a bad mood, and after questioning, she found out the reason.

"Eh? You passed by Neshinichi in Shibuya? How is that possible!"

Conan said that such a thing is simply impossible.

If I really want to say why, because Kudo Shinichi is him, he stayed at home all day today, how could he appear in Shibuya?

And even if he arrived in Shibuya, if he didn't recover his original body, he couldn't be Kudo Shinichi.

But Xiaolan said she was very sure.

"It's absolutely true!"

After emphasizing this sentence, he looked a little angry again.

"I didn't expect that he didn't say hello to me. Do you think it's too much?"

Regarding this, Kogoro Mori, who was sitting at the desk with his head in one hand and a beer in the other, said it directly.

"I think he's probably had enough of you, so don't worry about that reasoning idiot."

Hearing this, Xiaolan seemed to agree, with a disappointed look on her face.

"That's right, he was still walking with a girl at that time."

"You must have admitted the wrong person, don't take it to heart!"

Conan waved his hands cutely and said.

However, it only attracted Xiaolan's squinting eyes, which made Conan feel a little bad.

"What...for what?"

"Speaking of which, I have a question."

Four Seasons suddenly raised his hand to ask a question.

So everyone looked at him again.

Four Seasons glanced at everyone before asking.

"Who is this Kudo Shinichi you're talking about...?"

Who is Kudo Shinichi, he actually knows this question.

However, as a person who just came from China not long ago, it is obviously impossible for him to know Kudo Shinichi.

That's right, Kudo Shinichi is still well-known in Japan, after all, he is a very powerful high school student detective.

But being famous in Japan does not mean being famous in China.

And when the four seasons came, Kudo Shinichi basically disappeared, and the news basically didn't mention it.

So it's normal not to know the four seasons, if you really want to know, then it will be suspicious.

So Xiaolan gave a very brief introduction, mainly about her childhood sweetheart, her parents are well-known mystery novelists and actresses, and she is also a well-known high school student detective or something.

Then the four seasons looked stunned.

"It turns out there is such a person."

"It's all right, anyway, it's just a reasoning punk."

Mori Kogoro seemed a little upset, shook the beer can in his hand, and continued.

"Speaking of which, Lan, is the other thing you just said true? How long ago did you ask me to catch a strange thief?"

"It's Phantom Thief No. 1412!"

Xiaolan stood up and said with her hands on her hips, as if she was a little displeased with Kogoro Mori's forgetfulness.

But Mori Kogoro obviously hadn't heard of this.

"What is the origin of Phantom Thief 1412?"

"Actually, I don't know exactly where he came from."

Xiaolan was also a little confused about this.

"According to Yuanzi, he is the number one robber who targets artworks or jewelry from all over the world. People from the FBI and CIA have long been pissed off by him, and The same is true for Interpol (ICPO), that’s why he was given a secret number 1412, and after the news leaked out, everyone knew that this was his secret number.”

In this regard, Conan is still hehehe, saying that this is nonsense.

And Siji also shook his head, saying that if the FBI and CIA really take it seriously, Kaitou Kidd is just a tragedy.

But such thieves, the FBI and CIA will not use their elite forces to deal with them. Their elites are dealing with criminal organizations, killing people and the like. Stealing things is just a trivial matter, as long as they don't steal their secrets.
