Conan: Science Cartoonist Kudo Yuji

"Wait, wait, you just mentioned Kudo Yusaku's illegitimate child, Kudo Yuji or something like that, you must be kidding."

Mao Lilan looked at Fujiwara Bandage Man who was being looked down upon by the other two people, and said in disbelief: "How is this possible? Uncle and Shinichi's mother are obviously very affectionate, and Shinichi..."

The girl's words were suddenly stuck in her mouth. Her eyes became much clearer as she remembered that "Shinichi" seemed to have mentioned such a name in his words in the morning.

[Damn it, I don't have enough money, I might as well borrow some from Yuuji and never pay him back.]
So her childhood sweetheart knew that her father had another woman and child outside? Mao Lilan suddenly felt that Shinichi was much stranger, because she thought Shinichi would definitely have a big fight with his father because of this kind of thing.

"Well, you guys were talking from a while ago and didn't open the door for me. I was so embarrassed that I pushed the door open by myself..."

A handsome man with soft blond hair appeared from behind the door of the Maori Detective Agency. He was wearing cleaning clothes and found that the people in the Maori Detective Agency were very strange.

Bourbon, who is currently working for Rum, is ordered to investigate the Mori Detective Agency. Through indirect inquiries, he learns that this task was assigned to him after Rum reached an agreement with Vermouth, who had just traveled back and forth between the United States and Japan three times in one day. Bourbon became interested in this new famous detective in Tokyo.

(Yuji: You didn’t expect that, I was the one who got the job by acting cute to Vermouth, haha! Miss Chris in any world would fall for this.)
But why do these four people have such strange expressions?
"Blond-haired...housekeeper?!" Ran Mouri's eyes suddenly widened and she pointed at Toru Amuro, feeling a little embarrassed after realizing that she might be under stress.

"Excuse me blond, what's the problem?"

The three people who were familiar with Amuro Toru could sense that he was in a bad mood, so Jin Yuanguang immediately came out and shook his head at Xiaolan, then looked up at Amuro Toru and said with his cat eyes: "Big brother is very handsome, I like him very much."

"Is... is that so?" Amuro Toru was stunned for a moment. The boy's short black hair, blue-gray eyes and polite smile reminded him of Jing unconsciously.

"Yeah, I think I like it."

Jin Yuanguang retreated back behind Matsuda Jinpei and Fujiwara Kojiro, but was stopped by Amuro Toru.

"Little brother, what's your name?"

"Me?" Jin Yuanguang hesitated for a moment: "Big brother, you can call me Guang."

"Light?" Amuro Toru nodded, then asked, "Who needs housekeeping service?"

Of course, he had conducted a comprehensive investigation of the situation at the Mouri Detective Agency in advance. It would be more accurate to say that he had already started investigating the surroundings of Mouri Kogoro when he first became famous.

It is illogical that an originally unknown person suddenly became a detective that made a sensation throughout Japan, unless this person was originally extraordinary, not to mention that Vermouth's attention is now also focused here.

[Is there any relationship between Maori Kogoro and Vermouth? 】

He was not the only one who thought so, Gin probably thought so too. In a world without Kudo Yuji's cover, when Mori Kogoro was just starting to make his fortune, the relationship between his daughter and Kudo Shinichi, and then extending to Kudo Yukiko and Vermouth, was on the table of the organization's intelligence agents.

"It's me. The client, Ms. Kisaki Eri, is my mother. My name is Mao Lilan. I'm sorry, but we have something important to deal with next, so today's cleaning will probably have to be cancelled."

Mao Lilan blushed a little. Although it was to help the kidnapped Kudo Yuji, it was also a fact that because of her decision, the gentleman made a wasted trip and earned less salary.

"I...I will talk to my mother. Although I can't pay the full amount, I will take out a portion of the cancellation fee as compensation..."

"You don't have to do that. You're too polite." Amuro Toru looked like he was still trying to argue: "You guys go out to work, I can clean here. If necessary, you can put your valuables in a safe or at a trusted neighbor's house in advance."

"This... I'm afraid it's still not possible." Although Mao Lilan was kind, she was not stupid and had no intention of agreeing.

"I can also stay and take charge of dinner for you, as long as you are willing to provide the ingredients... Why did Ms. Maori's expression suddenly become like that again?!"

Toru Amuro noticed that Ran Mouri was pointing at him and looking at the three people over there, as if she wanted to say something but stopped herself. The suspected pervert wrapped in bandages and a scarf and the cute boy were shaking their heads vigorously at the girl at the same time.

"Did we have any misunderstanding?"

"No, absolutely not!"

Mao Lilan waved her hand: "Mr. Amuro, you are overthinking it."

"Yeah……"

Toru Amuro looked disappointed, as if he was really sad about not being able to clean, causing the three people who were watching the fun nearby to fall silent.

[Damn it, even though I know he's pretending, Zero has never acted like this in front of me.]

Matsuda Jinpei was a little helpless. Although he knew that this Amuro Toru was not their Furuya Rei, the blond boy from another world was also Rei. And the look on their friend's face was like telling them that there was a reason they had to stay.

"That's it, Sister Maori, let's go and deal with the kidnapper." Jin Yuanguang spoke deliberately.

[I don't know why you came here, but you will definitely seize the opportunity, Zero.]

"Wait, little brother, you can't say it directly in front of other people, even if it was your client who leaked it..."

Ran Mouri glanced at Toru Amuro nervously. It was not because she had not yet dispelled her doubts about him, but she was worried that this person would become the target of the kidnapper because he knew about the kidnapping.

"Kidnapper? Is someone kidnapped?!" Amuro Toru raised his eyebrows and said shyly, "In fact, in addition to being a housekeeper, I also have a job as a trainee detective. Ms. Maori, I don't need compensation, can I go with you?"

"This... is very distressing..."

Mao Lilan hesitated for a moment, and seeing that Kanemoto and Matsuda had no objection, she nodded and agreed.

"But I have a condition. I must invite a policeman I know privately, and I won't tell him about the kidnapping before he comes." Mao Lilan said seriously.

"That's fine. It's not realistic not to inform the police." The scarf man and the other two looked at each other and said, "Then please ask Miss Maori to call Officer Matsuda of the First Investigation Division. He's very famous, isn't he? Detective Maori has had so many dealings with the First Investigation Division. You should know him."

The three of them are ready to ask for help from Jinpei Matsuda in this world.

"Officer...Officer Matsuda?" Mouri Ran blinked.

"Yes, that is..."

"Who is it?" (End of this chapter)
