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

Chapter 431 He Made a Small Mistake (2 Updates)
Shiraishi E didn't go back to her room; while she was in the elevator, Kogoro Mouri called her out.

He left the resort hotel and watched Kogoro Mouri sitting on the sand on the nearby beach, chugging beer.

Shiraishi E could tell from the other party's defeated look that the deal had definitely fallen through.

"Tell me, why doesn't she want to break up?" He didn't sit down on the beach, but instead lit a cigarette for himself.

Although it's been a while since the battle ended, it's still the first cigarette I smoked after the fight.

"Sigh," Kogoro Mori sighed and confessed, "I was wrong, really wrong, terribly wrong!!"

"This has resulted in a death... I can't just ignore it."

"Shiraishi, what should I do?"

Upon hearing this, Shiraishi E raised an eyebrow and immediately began to suspect that she was pregnant.

He's fired thousands upon thousands of bullets with the Gatling gun, and nothing has happened.

How could Kogoro Mouri's rusty revolver have killed someone so quickly?

He said, "Tell me the details!"

After downing his can of beer in one gulp, Kogoro Mori crushed it and tossed it aside, muttering sullenly, "She showed me the pregnancy test results, and it's in black and white—I'm doomed!"

Shiraishi E raised an eyebrow, realizing that Horikoshi Yumi was no ordinary woman!
He asked, "Pregnancy test report? Which hospital did you go to? When was it done?"

"Uh... this... I didn't notice." Kogoro Mouri couldn't recall and stammered a reply.

Then he realized something, looked up and said, "You mean... this pregnancy test might be fake?"

"You have the nerve to call yourself a detective?" Shiraishi E looked at Mouri Kogoro with a speechless expression.

Kogoro Mouri's skill level in matters of the heart is only at the Bronze level; he can't even handle his own wife, so how could he possibly compete with Yumi Horikoshi?

He said, "I'll have someone investigate this matter tonight."

"Let's see if she's really pregnant or not."

"If she's faking it, I'll deal with her. If she's really pregnant, I'll give her some money and kick her out!"

Kogoro Mouri opened his mouth, but ultimately said nothing.

In that instant, he felt that calling him "big brother" had not been in vain.

They genuinely help when there's a problem!

He said somewhat embarrassedly, "This... thank you, Shiraishi."

"I'm doing this not for you, but for Ran." After saying this, Shiraishi E silently added in her heart: Of course, there's also Eri Kisaki.

"I don't want to see her sad and upset."

"I understand, I understand!" Kogoro Mouri nodded repeatedly to show that he understood.

"Good that you understand." Shiraishi E didn't want to waste time on these trivial matters, and said, "Go back now and check on Ran and Attorney Fei... Also, explain why you didn't answer the phone and why you left temporarily."

"I understand, I understand," Kogoro Mouri assured him repeatedly.

Shiraishi waved her hand, indicating that the other party could leave.

The weight that had been hanging over Kogoro Mouri's heart could finally be lifted. He quickly got up, dusted the sand off his backside, and ran towards the resort hotel.

Shiraishi E took out her phone and made a call to Vermouth.

"Vermouth, help me investigate a woman." After the call connected, he said, "Her name is Horikoshi Yumi, and she's a college classmate of Kogoro Mouri."

"Could you help me investigate whether she has had a prenatal check-up recently, and whether she is pregnant?"

What an intelligent woman Vermouth was!
Upon hearing this, she immediately understood: "So Xiaolan's father made a mistake?"

"Hmm, he made a small mistake," Shiraishi E said, puffing out a cloud of smoke.

It wasn't that he was protecting Kogoro Mouri... but compared to himself, a Class A war criminal, Kogoro Mouri's crotch matter was really nothing.

He was speechless that Kogoro Mouri couldn't even handle such a small matter.

“Okay, I’ll have someone check for you right now…give me twenty minutes.” Vermouth also felt that this was not a big deal.

In the eyes of this assassin, what's the big deal about cheating?
Even killing an entire family wasn't a big deal to her... after all, she'd done this kind of thing quite often.

After hanging up the phone, Shiraishi E went to sit in the bar inside the resort hotel.

While waiting for news from Vermouth, we should also inquire about Yumi Horikoshi's whereabouts.

He tapped on the table, waited for the bartender to come over, opened a photo of Yumi Horikoshi on his phone, and handed it to the bartender: "Help me find a woman."

The bartender was taken aback; this was the first time he had ever encountered such a request!

"Excuse me, sir. We don't provide this kind of service here—" Before he could finish speaking, he saw the handsome man in front of him take out a stack of ten thousand yuan in banknotes and place them on the table.

The bartender's eyes widened in disbelief!

That must be at least a million, right?

Tempted by the money, the bartender gritted his teeth and finally said, "Let me ask my other colleagues."

As he spoke, he took out his phone, snapped a photo, and sent it to the work group, indicating that the female customer had left something behind and asking them to help look for it in the vicinity.

Shiraishi E nodded, then ordered a glass of whiskey.

She'd only drunk half a glass of whiskey when Vermouth sent a message—she wasn't pregnant.

This situation was also within Shiraishi E's expectations.

After all, why did Yumi Horikoshi bring it up at the exact moment Kogoro Mouri said he wanted to break up?

It's obvious they were prepared in advance!

He had just finished his whiskey when the bartender excitedly approached and exclaimed, "Found her! Found her! Someone saw her by the pool!"

"It's so late, and you still have the mind to do something useful." Shiraishi E chuckled.

Being someone's mistress isn't easy these days.

You have to manage your figure at all times!

"Here's a tip for you." Shiraishi E handed the bartender a wad of ten thousand yen bills, and left the bar after the bartender bowed deeply in gratitude.

After about ten minutes, he arrived at the indoor heated pool and soon found Horikoshi Yumi swimming there.

This woman has a pretty face and a good figure, plus the added advantage of having this classmate.

No wonder Kogoro Mouri couldn't resist.

If it were him, he wouldn't be able to resist either.

After all, possession is one of the fundamental characteristics of human beings.

After waiting patiently for the other person to come ashore, Shiraishi E took the initiative to pick up a dry towel and hand it to them.

"Thank you~~" Horikoshi Yumi was in a great mood because she saw a handsome guy talking to her.

She said, "However, if you're trying to hit on me, forget it... I already have a boyfriend."

Shiraishi E laughed when she heard that.

If you say she's moral, she knows she has a boyfriend and doesn't go around having affairs.

If you say she's immoral, then she's a mistress who knowingly becomes a mistress.

As expected of a girl from the Japanese server, her moral bottom line is quite flexible and unfathomable.
