I am in Mihua, and the ladies all like me

Serabell herself didn't care. She just went to the hospital to see Dr. Agasa and bring some gifts. But Conan's behavior of disobeying orders made Kogoro Mouri very angry.

A quarter of an hour later, the Audi was on its way to Mihua Hospital.

Inside the car, Conan was still sitting in the passenger seat, his toes off the ground, his chin pinched by one hand, with an unusually serious look on his face.

"Hey, do you think the next victim might be that Asahi Shengyi?"

"I do not know."

Serabelle gave Baidu's high-quality answer without hesitation.

"I still stick to my original opinion. I think it is unlikely that Murakami is the culprit."

"So do you think there's something wrong with Mr. Sawaki?" Conan asked again.

"I don't know about this either. I can only take it one step at a time."

Serabelle said it very subtly, but she actually had a second half to her words.

[But if Zemu Gongping really has a problem, then I will just stab him.]

After all, your friends and acquaintances have been hurt. If you remain indifferent, are you still a human being?

Chapter 243 How can a rebellious girl who has been rebellious for more than ten years compete with a rebellious girl who has been rebellious for decades

It’s as if humans have never stopped building all kinds of weird buildings into the water since the first undersea tunnel was built in the last century.

For example, there is an ocean museum in a tourist attraction that only has an entrance and an exit on the ground.

As soon as you enter from the entrance, there will be an automatic circulating track taking tourists all the way down to the bottom of the semicircular glass passage. If you look up slightly, you can see the floating water plants and swimming fish in the sea outside the passage.

Especially when the golden sunlight shines through the water, it is especially beautiful.

A certain ocean crystal museum is also designed based on this concept.

On a coastal highway in Tokyo, in an Audi driving along with the traffic, Serabelle held the steering wheel with one hand and glanced at the "giant crystal flower" on the distant sea outside the left hand window.

"That is the Ocean Crystal Museum..."

Most of the Ocean Crystal Pavilion is buried deep beneath the sea, while the part above the sea looks like a huge crystal that exploded in the center, splashed in all directions, and was then frozen in place by some unknown force, stuck between a state of integrity and destruction.

It has a beauty that is similar to those fantasy-style buildings in fantasy series.

"It's indeed beautiful."

A familiar female voice sounded in the passenger seat. Kisaki Eri sat in the car seat with her head tilted, her legs crossed tightly wrapped in black stockings. The outline of the buildings on the sea was clearly reflected in her indigo eyes. She adjusted the frame of her glasses and her tone was a little inexplicable.

If I had to find an adjective, it would probably be "on high alert."

Hearing that the female lawyer didn't have much intention of chatting, and Serabelle herself was not the talkative type, she simply stopped talking, looked away, and concentrated on driving.

It is worth mentioning that although the Ocean Crystal Pavilion is located in the sea, there is no direct passage connecting it. If you want to go to the Ocean Crystal Pavilion, you must first go to the "pier" on the shore and take a specific sea train to the crystal pavilion.

Ten minutes later, as the Audi slowed down and drove off the road to a parking lot by the sea, faint sounds of quarreling were heard not far outside the car window.

It is called a parking lot, but it is actually a pier. The parking lot is located on the west side, and as long as you pass through the station at the end of the parking lot, you can reach the east platform and take the sea train.

As for the sound of quarreling, that was naturally——

"Dad! No matter what you say, I must go with you this time!" This is Xiaolan's voice.

"That's enough! Xiaolan, you're almost there, stop being so willful!"

Louder than that was the voice of Kogoro Mouri.

"Listen carefully, this trip is no joke. If things go wrong, things could get really dangerous! So Lan, you absolutely cannot go!"

"But I'm Daddy's daughter!" Xiaolan argued, "First it was Inspector Megure, then it was Mom, and now it's Dr. Agasa. So many people have been hurt because of Daddy, how could I just sit there and do nothing! Conan feels the same way, right, Conan?"

"Uh-huh!"

The insignificant (physics) elementary school student, the god of death, could not get a word in and could only nod his head quickly like pounding garlic.

"Uh……"

With the facts before him, even Kogoro Mori, with his good temper, couldn't help but temporarily lose his temper.

At the same time, the Audi that had just arrived drove into the parking space next to the quarreling two people at just the right speed and angle and stopped steadily.

The car door opened, and Hibiki Eri stepped out of the car in her high heels. She stood up and held the car door with one hand.

"Lan, your father and I have the same opinion this time. You and Conan should not go. Just leave this matter to us adults."

"Mother?!"

Xiaolan never expected that her mother would come and even stand on the same side with her father. She was immediately shocked.

Even Conan next to him was stunned. Before his brain could react, his body subconsciously shrank behind Xiaolan and hid.

Tsk tsk tsk, it looks like he is really scared...

Serabelle, who was closing the car door with her cane, glanced at this scene and thought to herself.

However, it was obvious that even if Kisaki Eri showed up, she could not easily shake the unicorn girl's determination to go. After a brief retreat, Xiaolan took another step forward.

"But wasn't mom also attacked by the criminals before? Normally, mom should be the one who has a good rest. And if you two go there and something really happens, what are you going to do with me, your daughter?"

This is indeed a powerful counterattack, especially for most responsible parents in the world, their children always come first.

Who is Keihime Eri? How can a rebellious girl of more than ten years compete with a rebellious girl of decades? Faced with her daughter's rebellion, the female lawyer resolved it smoothly.

"That's why I asked Sera-kun to help."

"……Eh?"

After a slight pause, Xiaolan noticed that her mother had come here in Serabel's car.

Although Kogoro Mori didn't say anything, his cheek twitched slightly.

After all, any man would feel uncomfortable if he saw his wife getting out of another man's car.

After being tough, the next step is naturally to be gentle. While Xiaolan was still in a daze and couldn't organize the words to refute, Kisaki Eri quickly stepped forward and gently placed her hands on her daughter's shoulders, and spoke in a serious tone.

"Listen carefully, Lan, this matter is really serious, so you must be obedient and stay in a safe place, so that we can devote all our efforts to finding the criminal. Mom also promised you that she will come back safely after the matter is over, okay?"

"……Um."

After being completely defeated in the verbal confrontation, Xiaolan had no choice but to nod in agreement.

About two or three minutes later, the sound of the engine was heard again on the road outside the dock.

But this time it wasn't just one car, but three or four cars arrived together.

Leading the way was a red Aston Martin, which sprinted into the parking lot at a speed of 100 kilometers per hour, turned around with a superb drift, and used inertia to rub against Kogoro Mouri's lower back to steadily park itself in the parking space.

The overly aggressive driving style almost scared Kogoro Mouri to the point of peeing his pants. For a moment, his LSP spirit was completely gone. He even started scolding when he saw that a beautiful brown-haired model got out of the Ashton Martin.

"Hey! Miss, please don't drive like this, it's very dangerous!"

"Aha?"

The brown-haired female model, who was originally observing the ground to see if she had parked her car too far, suddenly became unhappy and shrugged her face like a kitten and pouted.

"Are you kidding me? I didn't bump into you. So who are you, uncle?"

"I am the famous detective Maori Kogoro!"

When he heard that he was actually looked down upon, Kogoro Maori was furious.

However, he did not expect that once the name was announced, the female model who was so arrogant in the last second suddenly changed her expression. After a brief surprise, she stepped forward and took Mouri Kogoro's arm, happily taking out her mobile phone to take a selfie.

"Ah? Is he that super famous detective? I'm the model Nana Koyamauchi. Let's take a photo!"

"Eh? Oh...sure."

All the dissatisfaction and resentment in his heart disappeared the moment he felt the soft touch on his arm, and Kogoro Mouri even cooperated by making a scissors hand gesture to the camera.

Nana, this name sounds a bit like the number seven... Serabelle touched her chin.

"dad……"

Seeing that her father looked so embarrassing even though her mother was right next to them, Xiaolan's face turned dark. Veins popped out of her clenched fists, but she couldn't just hit him because there were so many people around, so she could only secretly observe her mother's expression.

Kisaki Eri looked normal.

Chapter 244 It’s all here

We had just finished taking the selfie when several cars behind us arrived one after another.

They got off the car one by one - a reporter wearing tinted glasses who looked both polite and social, and who felt like he had come from the set of some Vice City, a gourmet with long flowing hair who looked like a pianist, and an unknown foreigner.

Of course, the sommelier Sawaki Kohei, who was responsible for inviting Kogoro Mori and others to the Ocean Crystal Museum, also came.

"Mr. Shishido and Mr. Nishina are here too!"

Nana Koyamauchi, who had just taken a photo with Kogoro Mori, saw the reporters and gourmets getting off the car and immediately recognized them and exclaimed in surprise.

Reporter Shishido Nagaaki also casually responded: "Hey, you're here too, Nana."

The gourmet Minoru Nishina was more particular. He first nodded to Nana Koyamauchi who greeted him, and then bowed slightly to everyone present.

"I think this is the first time I meet some of you. Hello, my name is Minoru Nishina, and I love gourmet food."

"Wow~ It's so formal. I feel embarrassed."

Nana Oyamauchi shrank her neck in a funny way, then turned to a middle-aged foreign blond man behind Shishido and Nishina.

"By the way, this person is..."

"Oh, I'm Peter Ford, a guest invited by Mr. Xu."

The blond middle-aged man explained himself in Japanese with a slightly European accent.

After the new faces were introduced, Zemu Gongping, who had been silent, finally looked around.

"That's strange. Didn't Inspector Megure and the others come this time?"

"Megure?"

Before the three new faces could react to how they were related to the police, Kogoro Mouri coughed lightly.

"The police chief sent a message saying that he's on the way. He should be on his way now..."

Before he finished speaking, a Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department police car slowly drove up the side road outside the parking lot, accompanied by the sound of an engine coming from afar.

If you really say Cao Cao, Cao Cao will arrive.

The police car stopped and Megure and Shiratori got out.

Seeing this scene, reporter Nagaaki Shishido instinctively smelled something unusual and subconsciously raised the portable camera in his hand.

"Speaking of which, even the police are here. Could something have happened?"

"about this……"

Just as Inspector Megure opened his mouth to explain the situation, Nana Koyamauchi, who had been waiting impatiently, rolled her eyes and started to urge him on.

"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. Let's go to the Ocean Crystal Museum first. We've been looking forward to it for a long time."

"Well, that's true."

Upon hearing this, Inspector Megure pondered for a moment, glanced at the Ocean Crystal Museum standing proudly on the sea in the distance, and nodded, as if he was sure that the suspect Murakami Jō was hiding there.

"Okay, let's go now!"

On the other side, Kisaki Eri turned to Xiaolan again.

"Lan, listen to your mother and stay here until we come back, got it?"

"……Um."

As if it was a farewell of life and death, Xiaolan nodded silently.

Three minutes later, a sixteen-seat sea train was on the track heading to the Ocean Crystal Pavilion.
