I'm in Detective Conan, and the system has appointed Batman.

Chapter 91 Conan: Why are you sitting here so casually?

Maori Detective Agency.

With dark circles under his eyes, Kogoro Mouri pushed the door open.

He yawned and walked inside.

After walking only a few steps, Kogoro Mouri suddenly felt that something was not quite right.

He subconsciously turned his head to look behind him.

Just then, they saw Chen En following into the room with an air of entitlement.

Maori Kogoro:?

What motivated you to come with me?

I was thinking you were walking with me because we were going the same way, but it turns out you were planning to join the firm with me?
Kogoro Mouri asked in an annoyed tone,
"What are you doing following me, you wicked little bat brat?"

"You also have a request for me to handle?"

"Let me make this clear from the start: even if it's you, I won't shortchange you on the commission fee. Also, I'm going to catch up on my sleep later, so please come back tomorrow for any commissions you have!"

Chen En: ?
What are you thinking? Do I need to contact you if I have things to do?

You must be so sleepy, you've even forgotten what you promised last night!

Chen En shook his head, sighed, and said,

"Uncle Mori, I think you don't understand at all."

Kogoro Mouri, somewhat puzzled, asked in return,
"Understand, understand what?"

"You might as well be more explicit. If you don't explain yourself clearly, how will anyone know what you mean?"

Upon hearing this, Chen En spoke directly.

"Did you forget it?"

“Last night, Inspector Megure told you that Prosecutor Kusakabe wanted to meet with you to express his gratitude. You said you were free tomorrow afternoon, and then Inspector Megure said he would tell Prosecutor Kusakabe when he got back.”

"If Prosecutor Shimobe hadn't gone to perform Sukuna that afternoon, he would definitely have come to see you, right?"

“I’m also planning to meet with Prosecutor Kusakabe, and I might as well hitch a ride with you.”

—Hmm? Makoto Kusakabe is meeting with me this afternoon?

Is there such a thing?
Kogoro Mouri was stunned.

His somewhat rusty mind started working again, recalling what had happened last night.

Then, Kogoro Mouri's face darkened.

Oh no, there's something like that!

Dude, I stayed up all night gossiping last night, spent the morning investigating a case, and have to meet with Makoto Kusakabe this afternoon. So, I'm going to have to stay up all day again.
Will I finally be able to sleep tonight?

Kogoro Mouri paused for a moment, then placed his hand on Chen En's shoulder.
"Good plan, but I'd like to make some changes."

"Chen En, I hereby appoint you as Kogoro Mouri. The important task of meeting with Prosecutor Kusakabe this afternoon is entrusted to you. I will not be going, because my own affairs are more important!"

"I'm going to focus all my energy on catching up on sleep!"

—Are you really crazy?
Chen En gave him a disapproving look.

That gaze was so cold that it instantly chilled Kogoro Mouri's heart to the bone.

Kogoro Mouri sighed and turned away with a rather desolate expression.

"This agency has handled countless cases in the past, and has always been a battleground for the Metropolitan Police Department in solving cases. The truth is hard to discern."

"In just one day, has this place really become my burial ground?"

Just as he was feeling sentimental about the passing of time.

Someone is coming down from upstairs.

Kogoro Mouri and Chen En looked up at the same time.

Then they saw that familiar figure.

"Hey, Xiaolan, what are you doing at home? Aren't you going out to play?"

Kogoro Mouri said with some surprise.

However, Ran Mouri answered as if it were perfectly natural.

"Of course I'll stay at home. How could I feel at ease leaving a child as young as Conan at home while I go out to play?"

Ran Mouri hurried downstairs.

Seeing Chen En standing next to Kogoro Mouri, he was somewhat surprised.

Chen En had never been to the firm before today.

What brings me here today?

Ran Mouri, out of curiosity, said...

“Dad, why don’t you go take a nap? Prosecutor Kusakabe just called.” “He said to meet at the Polo Cafe downstairs at 2 PM.”

"If you don't catch up on your sleep soon, and you fall asleep in front of Prosecutor Kusakabe, you'll become famous in the Tokyo District Public Prosecutors Office... I'll wake you and Conan up if lunch is ready!"

Hearing this, Kogoro Mouri nodded, quite moved.

It has to be a daughter who's his little darling, always thinking of him!
However, just as Kogoro Mouri was about to go back to his room and fall into a deep sleep...

He suddenly turned around and looked at Chen En.

Maori Kogoro:?

Wait a minute, if he goes to sleep, won't that leave Ran Mouri and Chen En alone in the office?

Although I think this naturally evil little bat probably doesn't have that intention at all.

However, one should not have the intention to harm others, but one must be wary of others.

What if Chen En makes a move on Xiao Lan at this time? Wouldn't that be terrible?

How's the food preparation going?

Chen En asked,

"Come on, let me teach you 108 ways to cook this dish."

Do you even realize the value of having intermediate-level cooking skills by default?

When cooking is mentioned, Ran Mouri immediately perks up.

She brought over the vegetables she had already washed and said earnestly,

"Okay, please guide me, teacher!"

Maori Kogoro:?

This kid can actually cook?
When did Xiaolan become an apprentice? I have no idea.
...Never mind, it should be fine. I'll take a nap and talk about it later.

------

lunch time.

Conan was woken up.

He sat up blankly and scratched his hair.

Then she changed her clothes and went to the bathroom with Kogoro Mouri to wash up.

After washing up, Conan, still half asleep, followed Kogoro Mouri downstairs.

He sat on the table, picked up the rice and chopsticks, looking completely lost in thought.

"Wow, this soup definitely tastes much better than before!"

Ran Mouri's voice rang out.

Upon hearing this, Conan took the small soup bowl next to him and ladled out a bowl of soup.

He held the soup bowl with both hands and took a small sip.

Then nodded.
