The Pirated Onmyoji of the Detective World

To Eri's surprise, Saku Norifumi's face suddenly showed a hint of disappointment. He shrugged and continued, "I thought you were going to buy it as a gift for me!"

Under the unfriendly gazes of Kogoro Mouri and Ran, Eri Kisaki was clearly startled by Norifumi Saku's words.

At that moment, her face flushed slightly, but she still hurriedly said to Saku Norifumi, "Saku, don't talk nonsense!"

"Hahaha!"

Seeing Eri Kisaki's flustered expression, Norifumi Saku finally couldn't help but laugh, revealing a look of someone who had successfully pulled off a prank.

Now, Kogoro Mouri and Ran on the other side finally realized that Eri Kisaki and this man named Norifumi Saku were not actually on a date together.

However, while secretly relieved, Kogoro Mouri couldn't help but mutter to Eri Kisaki, "Come on, you're not some little girl anymore. Is it really that hard to choose a tie?"

After saying that, he deliberately leaned back on the sofa, looking completely relaxed, and took a deep drag of his cigarette, looking at Eri Kisaki with a provocative expression.

"That's right, you have a problem with that!"

Eri Kisaki was also quite angry at Kogoro Mouri's unpleasant remarks.

Xiao Lan looked at the two people in front of her who were arguing again after they had clearly cleared up their misunderstanding, and helplessly rubbed her forehead.

……

"I thought there would be an even more exciting plot development!"

Looks like there's no more juicy gossip to come!

At the next table, Aragaki Yu and Vermouth, disguised as Miyano Akemi, exchanged a somewhat regretful glance.

Although they could tell from their first meeting with Eri and that man that there was nothing special between them, even Vermouth couldn't resist the urge to watch the spectacle when she had some free time.

"what a shame……"

Not only the two of them, even Conan muttered something unconsciously after he withdrew his gaze.

Aragaki Yu, Vermouth: Stare—

Although Conan only muttered it softly, it did not escape the ears of Aragaki Yu and Vermouth, who were sitting at the same table as him.

For Aragaki Yu and Vermouth, who knew perfectly well Conan's true identity.

Upon hearing Conan's words, the same thought involuntarily popped into their minds—

I never expected this! So this is what you're like, Kudo!

What a filial and good son-in-law!

As for Conan, it wasn't until he noticed the strange looks he was getting from Aragaki Yu and Hirota Masami that he realized he might have said something he shouldn't have.

"Oh no!?"

Startled, Conan instinctively covered his mouth and looked nervously at Ran and the others again. Only after confirming that they hadn't heard his mutterings did he secretly breathe a sigh of relief.

fine……

Thankfully, Xiaolan didn't hear it...

Chapter 649 The Madonna of the Legal World

"That's it!"

Just then, a slightly surprised female voice came from not far away.

Everyone looked over at the sound and saw a short-haired woman wearing a sexy off-the-shoulder top walking towards Eri Kisaki's location, while teasing her with a smile: "I never thought that the queen of the legal world would turn into an ordinary person in front of her husband."

"Queen?"

Hearing the woman address Eri Kisaki, Conan tilted his head in confusion.

"You haven't heard of her?" The short-haired woman noticed the child's bewildered expression and explained with a smile, "Attorney Fei's imposing presence in court is awe-inspiring, and coupled with her superb debating skills that can overwhelm the presiding judge, everyone privately calls her the Queen of the Legal World!"

After saying that, she playfully winked at Eri.

"Original, that's how it is..."

Upon hearing what the short-haired woman said, Conan immediately recalled the fear and trepidation he felt when he stood in front of Ran's mother when he was a child.

"Alright, that's enough."

Eri herself was a little embarrassed by this, and her face turned slightly red. "Actually, it's just that you guys call me that..."

"No, you're wrong. Even the prosecutor calls you that."

At this moment, a portly man in a brown suit stepped forward and said with a smile, "They all say that whenever Attorney Fei is around, she can't help but feel like a traitor kneeling before the Queen."

"Wow~"

Ran, hearing this evaluation of her mother for the first time, was so surprised that her mouth dropped open, and she looked at Eri with eyes full of admiration.

"I can understand that feeling!" Conan wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, feeling a little guilty.

"And what's more, Attorney Kisaki also has a nickname: the Undefeated Queen." Seeing Kisaki Eri's embarrassed expression, Aragaki Yu added, "So far, her loss rate is 0%, she's practically the Madonna of the legal world!"

Hearing what Aragaki Yu said, Eri Kisaki became even more embarrassed.

She glanced at Aragaki Yu with a hint of helplessness and said with a complaint, "Little brother Aragaki, why are you laughing at me too!"

"what!"

It was only at this moment that the short-haired woman noticed Aragaki Yu sitting to the side.

When she saw the other person's face, her eyes brightened considerably.

He noticed that the short-haired woman's gaze had fallen on him.

Yuya Aragaki nodded slightly in greeting to her.

However, the other person seemed a little embarrassed upon seeing this and hurriedly looked away.

"But right now, the most sought-after female lawyer," the man in the brown suit turned to the short-haired woman beside him, "is that the young lawyer, Ritsuko Usui, who overturned that sensational case on appeal and sent it to the Supreme Court for a ruling?"

Upon hearing this, the woman called Ritsuko Usui smiled and said, "No matter who wins that case, they will win."

However, judging from her slightly raised head, Ritsuko Usui was quite proud of it.

At the same time, a man who looked somewhat timid suddenly walked up behind Ritsuko Usui.

He scratched the back of his head apologetically and explained, "I'm really sorry. Actually, we should have won that case in the first instance, but we lost because it was assigned to me."

"what!?"

Suddenly realizing that her words might have been a veiled reference to someone, Ritsuko Usui became embarrassed.

"I'm sorry, that's not what I meant."

After explaining to the man who walked up behind her, Ritsuko Usui quickly ran to Eri Kisaki's side, put her hands on Eri's shoulders, and leaned closer to say, "Actually, even if I win that case, compared to the queen of our legal world, I'm still far behind!"

"Please, stop saying that, okay..."

Eri gave a reproachful look and turned her head away to show her displeasure that these people had once again steered the conversation toward her.

Then, after a slight hesitation, she turned to Ran and Yuu Aragaki and introduced, "By the way, let me introduce you. This lady next to me is lawyer Ritsuko Usui."

"As for these two, they are Kenzo Shiozawa and lawyer Yuji Mikasa."

Then, she introduced them in reverse: "This is my husband, Kogoro Mouri, my daughter, Ran Mouri, and Conan Edogawa, who is staying with us."

"And this one, he's my daughter's classmate, Aragaki Yu, and..."

Since Eri Kisaki had never met Akemi Miyano before, she didn't know how to introduce her at this moment.

"Hello, my name is Hirota Masami, and I am Aragaki Yu's girlfriend... um... assistant."

At this moment, Vermouth also introduced herself at just the right time.

After saying that, she squinted her beautiful eyes and glared at Aragaki Yu.

One hand quietly reached under the table and rubbed his calf.

This guy really doesn't know how to be gentle with women at all.

"Even though you two are separated, it's still really enviable!" Kenzo Shiozawa said with a smile to Eri Kisaki and Kogoro Mouri.

The relationship between Kogoro Mouri and Eri Kisaki was hardly a secret among them.

"They should be the undefeated queen of the legal profession, and one should be a famous detective who can solve every case. They are a perfect match!"

"Not at all!" Kogoro Mouri laughed when he heard this, but he didn't forget to tease Eri Ueki, "Marrying such an arrogant and domineering queen of the legal world makes me look insignificant."

"Yes!"

When Eri heard Kogoro Mouri say that, her slightly shy face immediately darkened, and she squinted as she said, "I must have been blind to choose a famous detective who only picks on other people's mistakes but doesn't demand anything of himself and is completely unrestrained with women. Come to think of it, I was smart all my life but made a foolish mistake!"

As they spoke, the two, who had been at odds, met eyes and smiled in a rather eerie way.

"Please, stop being so stubborn!"

Unexpectedly, Saku Hoji, who was sitting next to Eri Kisaki, suddenly added insult to injury, "Every time Mr. Mori solves a case, you cut out the news reports and make them into clippings. Do you think I don't know that?"

"oh!?"

Kogoro Mouri let out a soft "hmm" in surprise at this.

Eri Kisaki suddenly became anxious, "Don't talk nonsense!"
