I'm in Conan, I'm not a gangster

Chapter 350 Eri Kisaki is Poisoned (2 Updates)
“Ding-ling-ling——”

The alarm clock shattered the tranquility of the morning.

Shiraishi E frowned, reached out and groped for the alarm clock, sleepily turned it off, and then got up to brush her teeth and wash her face.

Last night, after confirming Rum's location, he withdrew.

As for the affairs between the Black Organization and the FBI and the police, he couldn't be bothered to pay attention to them.

Anyway, he had already obtained the relevant drugs and data in advance, so they can do whatever they want with them.

It would be best to beat the dog's brains out!

After washing up, Shiraishi E prepared a simple but hearty breakfast for herself, and after eating, she put on her schoolbag and went to school.

Just after the break between two classes, Shiraishi E suddenly received a call from Ran.

As soon as he saw Xiaolan's call, he immediately realized something had happened.

After all, Xiaolan was only a few classes away from me, and it wasn't anything important. She could have just come over and talked to me instead of calling.

"Hello? Ran, what's up?" Shiraishi asked, and what she heard next confirmed her guess.

"Shiraishi-kun, oh...oh no, something's happened!" Ran's voice, choked with tears, came from the other end of the phone: "My mom...my mom's in trouble!!!"

Upon hearing this, Shiraishi E immediately became very alert and asked, "What's wrong, Attorney Kisaki?"

"She's been poisoned! She's in the hospital being treated!" Xiaolan's voice trembled so much she could barely speak a complete sentence. "The doctor said her condition is very dangerous."

Shiraishi E frowned and said, "Which hospital? I'm coming right away!"

After learning that it was Mihana Central Hospital, he hung up the phone, asked for leave from school, and then took a taxi to the hospital.

--------------

Outside the emergency room of Beika Central Hospital, the red light shone glaringly. Kogoro Mouri paced back and forth in the corridor, his tie loosely hanging around his neck, completely devoid of his usual frivolous demeanor.

Xiaolan stood anxiously at the entrance of the emergency room, tears still streaming down her face.

Sonoko comforted the other person from the side.

Assistant Kuriyama Midori was also extremely flustered.

At that moment, Shiraishi E came over.

Seeing the worried expressions on everyone's faces, he repeatedly tried to reassure them.

He then asked, "What exactly happened?"

Standing to the side, Midori Kuriyama looked grave: "This morning, Mr. Mori sent a box of gibbons. Attorney Kisaki was very happy and ate a piece right away... but not long after, she suddenly fainted."

"What?!" Kogoro Mouri whirled around, his face ashen, and shouted, "I never sent any chocolates!"

His voice was filled with anger and disbelief, his fists clenched so tightly that his knuckles turned white.

“Dad…” Xiaolan looked at him with concern.

Kogoro Mouri took a deep breath, trying to calm himself, but his voice still trembled slightly: "Someone is impersonating me... Yesterday, Inspector Megure was attacked with a crossbow while jogging, and today it's Eri's turn..."

He lowered his head, his voice low and pained: "The murderer was after me..."

Thinking of this, Kogoro Mouri felt angry, but also annoyed and guilty.

I feel like I've dragged them down.

Ran noticed Kogoro's emotions and quickly stood up to comfort him, saying, "Dad, this isn't your fault! You don't need to blame yourself."

“Yes, Uncle!” Sonoko comforted him, “The murderer is the one who should be condemned, not you!”

Shiraishi patted Kogoro Mouri on the shoulder, her tone calm yet reassuring: "Now is not the time for self-blame. The most urgent task is to find the culprit and prevent more people from becoming victims."

Kogoro Mori nodded silently, suppressing his emotions. He gestured for E Shiraishi to follow him to the emergency exit, then said, "Shiraishi-kun... this isn't over yet. Tachibana Maya is still watching me!"

As he said this, he felt a surge of irritation and unease.

He had been away from the front lines for too long and had been a stay-at-home dad for too long, so when these things happened, he felt uncomfortable and uneasy for a while.

"Tachibana Maya?" Shiraishi E glanced at Mouri Kogoro with some surprise, not expecting that the other party would pinpoint the real culprit to her.

But from his perspective, there really is nothing wrong with that.

While Kogoro Mouri was out in the shadows, those around him were unharmed.

But as soon as he returned, those around him suffered.

Logically speaking, there is some connection between them.

Moreover, Kogoro Mouri had no other suspects besides this one.

Shiraishi E could only remind him, "Detective Mouri, calm down."

"That woman is an assassin. If she really wanted revenge on you, she would have killed them both long ago... Do you think she's incapable?"

These words brought Kogoro Mouri to his senses a little more.

Yeah, Tachibana Maya has no grudge against me, so why would she want to take revenge?
If she were to harm herself, she would be after the bounty; there's no need for her to go through all this trouble.

He frowned and asked, "Then tell me... who will retaliate against me?"

"You've sent so many people to prison before, why don't you just check who's been released recently?" Shiraishi E gave Mouri Kogoro a direction for his investigation, telling him to do his research properly.

As for the real culprit, he will take care of him.

"That's true!" Kogoro Mori couldn't wait to take out his phone and call his former colleagues, asking them to investigate the matter.

After Shiraishi E left the escape route, she saw the emergency room door open, and a nurse pushed Kisaki Eri out and took her to a ward.

After giving Xiaolan a few instructions, the doctor left in a hurry, and the nurse also said goodbye and left after finishing the IV drip.

Shiraishi E pushed open the door to the ward, and the smell of disinfectant hit her.

He looked at Eri Kisaki lying on the hospital bed, her face pale, an IV tube inserted in her arm, her breathing weak but steady.

Xiao Lan sat on the edge of the bed, holding her mother's hand tightly, her eyes red-rimmed.

Sonoko and Kuriyama Midori stood to the side, their worried expressions fading considerably.

Shiraishi E walked quickly to the bedside and asked in a low voice, "How is the situation?"

Kuriyama Midori replied, "The doctor said there's nothing seriously wrong, but I need to rest in the hospital for a few days."

Although Shiraishi E knew that Kisaki Eri would be alright, she only breathed a sigh of relief after hearing those words.

A little while later, Kogoro Mouri came back in.

He breathed a sigh of relief after learning that Eri Kisaki had passed the critical period.

"Shiraishi-kun, I need your help." Kogoro Mouri winked at E Shiraishi.

Shiraishi E nodded, said goodbye to Ran and Sonoko, and left the ward with Mouri Kogoro.

On the way, Kogoro Mouri told E Shiraishi that he had found out who was taking revenge on him.

Murakami Takeshi, ten years ago he sent the other party to prison, and the other party was only recently released from prison!
Instead of correcting the other party's misjudgment, Shiraishi E told Kogoro Mouri to go find Takeshi Murakami and not let it interfere with his work.

As for himself, he went to find the real culprit, Sawaki Kohei, and got rid of him.
