People are in Conan, but Ace Attorney

Chapter 393 Diplomat's Day Off

"Looking for a cat or a dog? I don't have the time to hire a detective for this kind of thing."

"Detective Maori, I would like you to help me investigate someone's information, preferably negative information."

Tsujimura Kimie snorted coldly and swept his eyes around the detective agency.

However, the environment here was not very conducive for her to sit down.

So he just continued to stand there and finished speaking his commission information.

"This person's name is Katsuragi Sachiko, she is 24 years old and graduated from Tokyo Medical College this year."

"She wants to marry my son and I cannot accept her becoming my son's wife."

"So, I hope the detective agency can find negative information about Katsuragi Sachiko..."

"Let me legitimately refuse Katsuragi Sachiko from marrying into my family!"

Hearing this, Kogoro Mori frowned.

This doesn't sound like a good commission. Are you trying to break up a couple?
What era is this? There are still such outdated things.

He became serious, walked out from behind his desk and came in front of Tsujimura Kimie.

At this time, Mao Lilan took Conan, who was holding a glass of wine, to the side.

He then turned to torture Conan, intending to ask him about the white liquor in his arms.

Hattori Heiji leaned on the edge of the table, listening quietly to the conversation between Mori Kogoro and Tsujimura Kimie.

"Excuse me, but what is the reason why you don't approve of Katsuragi Sachiko?"

"Is it that Katsuragi Sachiko has a problem with her character? Or is it that her professional ability is not good enough, or is it that her academic performance is not good enough?"

"What does your son think of Katsuragi Sachiko?"

Hearing Uncle Mori's question, Tsujimura Kimie couldn't help but remain silent for a moment.

Then she said in a stiff tone.

"There's nothing wrong with her. I just don't like her, so I don't want her to marry into our family."

"You don't need to ask these questions, do you? You won't lose the commission. Just tell me whether you will accept it or not."

Uncle Maori stroked his chin, still thinking whether to continue.

After all, there are outsiders in the firm, and if he accepts such a commission, it may damage his lofty personal image...

"Before accepting the commission, you have to understand the specific situation first, right? At least, take a look at the file?"

"We don't even know what Katsuragi Sachiko looks like or her identity information, so how can we investigate?"

Hattori Heiji suddenly spoke at this time.

Such words almost meant that Uncle Maori had accepted the commission.

This immediately shocked Kogoro Mori, but Kimie Tsujimura directly took out the file of Sachiko Katsuragi.

"Huh, so you want to look at the file first before making a decision. Why didn't you tell me about this earlier?"

"Please browse quickly. If you don't take it, I have to go to other detective agencies."

(What detective agency? Isn’t this a universal agency? It’s also called a handyman shop…)
(However, the businesses they are responsible for are similar, and perhaps Universal Law Firm is responsible for more businesses.)
On the other side, the Shinigami elementary school student was listening to the noise here while fooling Mouri Ran.

I couldn't help but complain in my heart.

After just flipping through a few pages of information about Sachiko Katsuragi, Kogoro Mori was shocked again.

He simply couldn't understand why Tsujimura Kimie rejected Katsuragi Sachiko as his daughter-in-law.

No, these are outstanding graduates who are ranked top from elementary school to high school and then to Tokyo Medical College.

Moreover, she has a very good relationship with your son and it is a situation where both of you are willing. Is it your turn, a monster like you, to break them up?

Who are you that you can't even look down on such a good daughter-in-law?
"Oh, it's perfect. Are you jealous of such a perfect person so you want to do this?"

"Well, that's just the nature of human nature. It's not something that's hard to understand."

The Great Detective of Kansai said as if it was a matter of course.

This immediately made Tsujimura Kimie frown, and she looked at the outsider with strange speaking style with dissatisfaction.

Just as I was about to open my mouth to criticize him, I heard Hattori Heiji continue.

"In short, since it's a commission, we have to pay a deposit first, right?" "Since the search is for negative information about Katsuragi Sachiko, it will take some time."

"Excuse me, Auntie, when will you need it soonest?"

...Auntie?
Tsujimura Kimie's face changed instantly, but he didn't get angry in the end.

Compared to the famous Maori detective, this young man seems to be more skilled in his work.

She snorted and finally said.

"My husband and I made this decision together. After the commission is confirmed, you will have to meet with my husband."

"He is a diplomat of this country. He doesn't have much time to rest. He happens to be free tomorrow."

"I'll leave the deposit here first. The address is on the last page of the information. I hope you won't break your promise tomorrow!"

"goodbye!"

The auntie with an inexplicably arrogant tone put on sunglasses and a coat, and walked away without looking back.

It makes people wonder if this guy has some hidden identity and why he has to hide like this.

Kogoro Mori wanted to say something but stopped himself. In the end, he kept silent because of the small stack of Fukuzawa Yukichi's papers on the table.

No matter what, at least the result is good, which is better than having no commission at all.

It was the kid next to him who took the commission on his own initiative, which made people feel inexplicably unhappy.

He almost wanted to say "Hattori! I am the director!"

"Oh, I just happen to be planning to stay here for a while. Can I go with you guys tomorrow?"

Hattori Heiji said with a grin.

This immediately made Uncle Maori look a little puzzled.

"We? What are you talking about? I must be the only one going on this mission."

"No, no, no, I mean it would be best if Miss Maori goes too."

The famous detective from Kansai continued.

"I learned from a high school girl that Kudo Shinichi is very heartless."

"I don't usually have any contact with his daughter...ah, no, Miss Maori."

"But from what I learned from another person, he doesn't seem to be a heartless person."

"Since there is little contact with Miss Maori, it means that he is very reassured about Miss Maori's situation."

"And if you want to reassure the detective, the best way is to let him see it with his own eyes. After all, seeing is believing."

"Maybe Kudo is hiding somewhere and watching Ms. Mori!"

Hattori Heiji turned around and looked at Conan who was still holding the wine.

He narrowed his eyes and continued to deceive Mao Lilan.

"So, for special scenes like someone's home, there would be no observation point if it wasn't arranged in advance."

"I think if Ms. Maori is in the house, there's a good chance that Kudo will follow her in, right?"

"So, if Ms. Maori goes with us to the commission site, the chances of meeting Kudo will be even greater?"

Being fooled, Mao Lilan fell into deep thought.

Looking at Xiaolan next to her, the top of her head seemed to move to horn-shaped hair as she thought.

Conan didn't know what to say for a moment.

This guy from Kansai always has a way of deceiving people...

The bigger the fish, the bigger the fish bones, the bigger the fish bones, the less meat, the less meat, the less fish, so the bigger the fish, the smaller the fish.

That's about how it feels.

If he hadn't turned into a child, there must be a reason why he hadn't appeared.

What’s the point even if Xiaolan goes to the commissioning site with her?

He's not a stalker, so how could he be sure that Xiaolan is in his sight 24 hours a day...

(It feels like this guy is going to do something big... I better keep an eye on him.)
(I don’t know if there is any special situation with Xiang Yuan…)
