My life in the underworld begins at the Takayanagi family!

That's why we were able to come together successfully and bring about some changes for you.

But your mother is different; she's a lawyer, and she's your mother.

Takayanagi Ichiro immediately pointed out the difficulties and expressed his skepticism about Mouri Ran's suggestion.

"Brother Ichiro, I know this is a little difficult, but it's the only way I can help Mom."

I will also work hard to persuade my mother to agree.

What I need to do now is to persuade you, Brother Ichiro, to help my mother.

As Ran Mouri spoke, her tone became completely pleading.

After all, she was unwilling to let go of this opportunity to help her mother.

"Big brother, Sister Xiaolan loves her mother so much, you shouldn't let her down."

Just then, Kaoru Takayanagi, who had been defeated earlier, came back to life and even made a request to Ichiro Takayanagi.

Of course, Kaoru Takayanagi felt a little amused.

Because she knew that Ichiro Takayanagi and Eri Kisaki had already had in-depth and superficial exchanges, and they had also seen the changes in Eri Kisaki.

However, after returning to Tokyo, Eri Kisaki and Ichiro Takayanagi communicated less, so Eri Kisaki's condition may have worsened, which is why Ran Mouri is a little anxious.

"Brother Ichiro, if my mother becomes like Sister Mika after she understands the power of change, I have no objection."

In the past, Ran Mouri didn't quite understand why Takayanagi Mitsuka and Takayanagi Kaoru, this mother and daughter pair, chose to stay by Takayanagi Ichiro's side, but now Ran Mouri understands.

Not only did she realize this, but her friend Sonoko Suzuki also understood and secretly began making some plans.

"I certainly don't mean to covet your mother, but now I can feel the love you have for your mother, so I will definitely help you."

However, you still need to work on your mother's mindset; I don't want to create an enemy.

With Kaoru Takayanagi joining the team, Ichiro Takayanagi readily agreed, but with his own conditions.

"Don't worry, Brother Ichiro, I will definitely do my best to persuade my mother."

Ran Mouri was overjoyed that Ichiro Takayanagi had agreed to her request, and she was also grateful to Kaoru Takayanagi.

If Kaoru Takayanagi hadn't suddenly joined in, it's safe to say that Ichiro Takayanagi would definitely have continued in this stalemate.

After all, Ichiro Takayanagi's business is lending money, while her mother is a lawyer; the two might have a competitive edge in their professions.

"Brother Ichiro, you're so kind."

Ran Mouri thanked Ichiro Takayanagi again, which almost made Kaoru Takayanagi lose her composure.

"Sister Xiaolan, if you really want to thank your elder brother, why don't you ride on his back again and continue to live?"

I could tell just now that my brother was completely out of control.

Ran Mouri had acted as a female knight for a while, giving Ichiro Takayanagi a moment to enjoy the view.

Sensing that Ran Mouri was about to make another move, Ichiro Takayanagi immediately stopped her.

"Don't take Xiao Xun's words to heart, you've already done very well."

"Brother Ichiro, I will always be with you."

At this moment, Ran Mouri uttered such simple words.

Ichiro Takayanagi also decided to have a good talk with Eri Kisaki, without revealing any flaws, and also to avoid upsetting Ran Mouri.

Meanwhile, Kaoru Takayanagi embraced Ichiro Takayanagi from another direction.

"Big brother, I will always be with you, and with Sister Xiaolan too."

Takayanagi Ichiro reached out and hugged Takayanagi Kaoru as well, and they rested together like that.

................

the next day.

Ran Mouri and Kaoru Takayanagi were on their way to school, and Ichiro Takayanagi did not immediately go out to resolve the issues left behind by Kozo Akizuki.

He received the detailed report from Officer Takagi after he had eaten breakfast.

After reading the information about Ryuji Ōki, Ichiro Takayanagi thought of an anime where an uncle attacks his niece.

If I remember correctly, Ryuji Ōki was able to succeed the first time by using improper means, and it is very likely that he stole the item from Kozo Akizuki.

Suzuka Ooki is currently working part-time at Manami Katsura's fried chicken shop, and Manami Katsura is keeping a close eye on her.

There probably won't be such a good opportunity to make a move, so Ichiro Takayanagi is willing to wait.

The most important thing is that Ichiro Takayanagi saw the call from Eri Kisaki at this time, and he definitely had to prioritize it.

"Eri-nee, I miss you."

As soon as the call connected, Takayanagi Ichiro delivered a straightforward declaration of love.

Eri, on the other end, was a little surprised and fell silent, because she was powerless against such straightforward words of love.

"Ichiro, I miss you too."

After responding, Eri Kisaki immediately explained why she called at this time.

"Ichiro, Ran said she wants to have dinner with me. Did you instigate that?"

Chapter 349 Sister-in-law, Brother is still watching.

Since Ran Mouri moved into Ichiro Takayanagi's house, she has maintained contact with Eri Kisaki, but not very frequently.

After all, she also had to go to school and guide Gao Liuxun with her homework and other tasks.

However, they never had a meal together alone, unless it was time for them to meet.

That's why Eri Kisaki is asking here whether Ichiro Takayanagi was behind Ran Mouri's dinner invitation.

After all, Ran Mouri was staying at Ichiro Takayanagi's house, and Eri Kisaki had some idea of ​​what would happen.

However, Eri Kisaki thought it was a good thing that Ran Mouri had this outcome, so she didn't stop her.

However, it is clearly unlikely that Ichiro Takayanagi would actually want to put the mother and daughter together; it is not feasible at this stage.

“I didn’t give any instructions behind the scenes; it was all Xiaolan’s own decision.”

Although Eri Kisaki and Ichiro Takayanagi had much less contact after returning to Tokyo, Eri still trusted Ichiro Takayanagi quite a bit.

"Could something have happened to Xiaolan?"

“Sister Yingli, I won’t hide this from you.”

Ran is now my girlfriend, and she's with her good friend Sonoko Suzuki.

So they felt the changes and improvements that came from our relationship, and they just wanted to apply that effect to you.

Xiaolan said that you have been working hard all these years, not only taking care of yourself, but also taking care of the detective Mouri who was not recruited before, which moved her deeply.

She has already made a request of me, asking me to help you make changes.

They will also try to persuade you to accept the proposal.

Even if you hadn't called me today, I would have called to talk to you anyway.

"I'm telling you not to give yourself away, and not to reject Xiaolan's kindness."

Takayanagi Ichiro's words silenced Eri Kisaki once again; she hadn't expected her daughter to go to such lengths for her.

Of course, it makes perfect sense for Takayanagi Ichiro to want to discuss it with him.

If Ran Mouri knew that Eri Kisaki and Ichiro Takayanagi already had a complicated relationship, it would definitely be another story.

"I have a solution. We'll find an opportunity to complete Xiaolan's request. Besides, I miss you quite a bit."

For a considerable period of time, Eri Kisaki and Ichiro Takayanagi did not have any in-depth or easy-to-understand exchanges.

This caused Eri Kisaki's overall condition to decline, and at the same time, Eri Kisaki really missed Ichiro Takayanagi.

If she really agrees with Ran's suggestion, then she can meet and communicate with Takayanagi Ichiro more openly in the future.

"Alright, then I'll be at your beck and call."

"Yes, I'll let you know."

Eri Kisaki was very pleased that Ichiro Takayanagi had such an understanding.

He had no intention of seeing the mother and daughter; on the contrary, he considered them more important.

After Eri Kisaki hung up the phone, Ichiro Takayanagi, having nothing else to do, went directly to find Mitsuka Takayanagi.

Gao Liu Mihua is now completely laid up; when she was managing this loan firm, she never expected any income whatsoever.

Then Ichiro Takayanagi could go and talk to her about his experience in managing the firm. After all, a secretary can do the work when there's nothing to do, and he can also be a secretary when there's nothing to do.

................

Police station near the fried chicken shop.

Haruka Oki and Ryuichi Oki, along with Ryuji Oki, who was caught yesterday, came to the police station and gave a detailed account of what happened yesterday.

After listening to the story told by Haruka and Ryuichi Oki, the police leader nodded.

"As the saying goes, even an upright official finds it hard to settle family disputes, so I will not interfere in your family matters."

But you need to restrain your brother's behavior; there's a reason for this.

But if he gives those customers that lewd look again, our police will definitely give him a good talking-to.

The police leader's words caused a slight change in Oki Ryuji's expression, even though he hadn't been beaten up yesterday.

However, I was subdued for quite a while, and my arms are a bit sore today.

Unfortunately, even if he had grievances in his heart, he didn't dare to say them directly to the police leaders, and could only engage in some dark activities in his mind.

"Officer, don't worry, this is now a family matter, and I will definitely not interfere anymore."

Ryuji Oki's statement at this moment made Haruka Oki's expression less than pleasant.

She had some things she wanted Ōki Ryuji to do, but she didn't expect Ōki Ryuji to abandon them at this time.

If I were to explain the situation to the police station, I would definitely face their opposition, so I can only take my leave here for now.
