Ke Xuezhen, starting with hypnotizing Vermouth.

"Xiao Lan, although this is our first meeting, I believe you are an independent and innocent girl. You should learn more from your mother."

"At the same time, we must remain vigilant!"

"Next time, don't accept invitations from strangers at night!"

"Now, let me take you home!"

Gu De said with a smile.

Ran Mouri nodded thoughtfully.

"It's getting cold, let's hurry up and go."

"Oh, by the way, I'll show you where my office is later. You're welcome to come visit anytime!"

Gu De threw away the ice cream and casually put his arm around Ran Mouri's shoulder.

The two quickly walked out of the street, and at the street corner, Gu De slightly turned his head to look behind him.

Sure enough, a short figure appeared, staggering along.

Shinichi Kudo is now Conan!

……

the next day.

Kogoro Mouri was woken up early in the morning by the doorbell.

"Xiao Lan?"

"Xiao Lan?"

Kogoro Mori, still half-asleep, called out twice, but received no reply from his daughter.

It seems that the daughter made dinner in the morning, packed her things, and went out.

"Where did Xiaolan go? Today is clearly her day off!"

Kogoro Mouri grumbled, tossed the newspaper aside, and went to open the door.

Outside the door stood a somewhat familiar, overweight man; Kogoro Mouri recognized him as Professor Agasa.

My daughter used to be very close to that detective kid, and it seems that Professor Agasa has a good relationship with him.

However, today, the doctor has a little kid with glasses by his side.

"Mr. Mori, you're here. I'm here to see Ran."

Dr. Agasa said with a hearty laugh.

"I don't know where Xiaolan went. She rushed out after finishing cooking breakfast this morning."

Kogoro Mouri stepped aside to let the other person in.

Professor Agasa sat down with Conan.

"Actually, it's like this..."

Professor Agasa glanced at Conan.

Before Professor Agasa could finish speaking, Ran Mouri pushed open the door and walked in.

He was also holding several law books in his arms!

This instantly reminded Kogoro Mouri of Eri Kisaki from the past.

"Xiao Lan, what are you going to do with all these law books?"

Kogoro Mouri took two steps back with some fear, and finally went straight back to his desk.

"I've decided to study law like my mother and become an independent woman!"

Ran Mouri said solemnly.

After being driven home by Gu De last night, Ran Mouri thought about it for a long time.

I have always been like Shinichi's vassal!

This can't go on!

You must also realize your own value!

Professor Agasa and Conan exchanged a glance, both feeling something was off.

However, Conan still nodded to Professor Agasa.

According to their plan, Ran Mouri's angelic nature would definitely allow them to stay here!

However, after listening to Professor Agasa's words, Ran Mouri hesitated.

"What? This kid will be staying here for a while?"

Kogoro Mouri was immediately furious.

Goodness, a child this big costs money every day for food, drink, and everything else!

His living expenses were already... As he spoke, he unconsciously looked at Ran Mouri.

After all, since Eri Kisaki left, her daughter has been managing most of the household affairs, but what about her own daughter...?

Conan and Professor Agasa were also confident of victory.

If we leave the decision to Ran Mouri, there won't be any problem!

……

Thank you for your support.

Chapter 8 Why did Xiaolan need so long to ask for advice?

Ran Mouri felt the gazes of the three people, and instantly thought of what Gu De had said last night!

"Therefore, you must live an independent life."

"You shouldn't be kind to everything; you have to analyze things yourself!"

This child in front of me doesn't seem to have any bad qualities...

but.

Seemingly sensing Ran Mouri's hesitation, Kogoro Mouri immediately cleared his throat.

"Cough cough~"

"I'm sorry, we can't help you. Professor Agasa, please think of another way!"

After saying that, he made a move to drive the two away.

"My...my parents will pay child support!"

"And I really admire Detective Mouri!"

Conan got a little anxious and immediately unleashed his ultimate move.

Child support?

Kogoro Mouri hesitated for a moment.

"Yes, the child's parents are quite wealthy, and they will definitely pay Mr. Mori a large sum of child support!"

"I can guarantee that!"

Dr. Agasa also chimed in from the side.

Kogoro Mouri knew that Professor Agasa lived in a big house.

Since Professor Agasa is vouching for it, there's still a chance to make money out of this...

He glanced at Ran Mouri with a guilty look on his face.

This is profitable!

At this moment, Ran Mouri had a vague feeling that something was wrong.

Why does this child insist on living in his own home?

If they live in their own homes, wouldn't they have to take care of them themselves?

Seeing the pleading look in the other person's eyes, Ran Mouri instantly felt something was even more wrong.

Inside, the two Xiao Lans started arguing.

“This child is quite pitiful, it wouldn’t be a problem for us to help take care of him.”

"Something's not right. This child is suspicious. Why does he insist on staying in his own house?"

"He's just a child, what could possibly be wrong with him?"

"But Professor Agasa's house is also very big, so why doesn't he take care of it? Something must be wrong!"

"But he looks really pitiful, so how about we compromise?"

"No, why don't we go ask Brother Gu De?"

"it is good!"

Ran Mouri glanced at Kogoro Mouri, then at Professor Agasa and Conan, and slowly said, "Dad and Professor, you've both been too hasty in this matter. I need to go out and think about it!"

"I'll be back later!"

Think about it?

Xiaolan would never have hesitated about something like this before!

You've already acted so pitiful, and you still want to think about it?

And why go out?

Conan was immediately filled with doubt.

Kogoro Mouri and Professor Agasa also sensed that something was amiss.

However, Dr. Agasa has always focused only on his own inventions and has almost no sensitivity to these things.

"Bang~"

Ran Mouri pushed open the door and left.
