Maori Kogoro's daily life in the science harem

Conan nodded. He knew what Maori meant. Once his identity and plan were exposed, he would be in endless danger.

Mao Li continued, "I will act openly and help you cover. But remember, no matter what, if Lan is present, you must protect her first, and she must not be involved in this."

……

Maori held Haibara Ai, whose emotions had not yet fully calmed down, and took Conan back to Professor Hirota's house step by step.

At this time, the police had completely blocked off the scene and set up a cordon.

The atmosphere was solemn, and the red and blue flashing lights of the police cars flickered in the night, illuminating everyone's face.

As soon as she saw Maori and the others coming back, Xiaolan finally felt relieved and rushed forward to greet them. "Dad! You're finally back!"

Mao Li saw Xiaolan's worried eyes and asked softly, "Lan, are you okay? Are you hurt?"

Xiaolan shook her head and showed a tired but relieved smile: "I'm fine, the police officers have been protecting me very well, and Inspector Yokomizo is not injured."

At this time, Inspector Yokomizo Sango walked over quickly with anger and anxiety on his face.

He looked at Mao Li and said angrily, "Mr. Mao Li, this time the criminal is really vicious! I wonder if you have caught up with her?"

Maori, Haibara Ai and Conan looked at each other, and the three of them understood each other tacitly.

Mao Li shook his head helplessly and said in a deep voice: "She ran away and disappeared very quickly. I couldn't catch up with her."

Upon hearing this, Inspector Yokomizo showed a trace of regret on his face, clenched his fists tightly, and said angrily: "How despicable! I will catch her at all costs and will never let such a murderer in Shizuoka Prefecture go unpunished!"

Mao Li nodded, his tone tired: "Inspector Yokomizo, I'll leave the rest to you. We are all tired too, I'll take Xiaolan and the others back first."

Inspector Yokomizo quickly expressed his understanding and said sincerely, "Mr. Mori, you have worked so hard. Without your help, things would not have gone so smoothly."

Maori smiled slightly, and walked towards Xiaolan with Conan and Haibara Ai.

Xiaolan walked naturally to Maori's side and gently held his hand. As long as her father was around, she would feel at ease.

Chapter 193: Golden Bell and Iron Cloth Shirt

After driving for a long time, Mao Li finally brought a few people back to their familiar home.

After a thrilling day, everyone was exhausted.

Xiaolan yawned and walked towards the bedroom holding Haibara Ai's hand; Conan also looked tired and walked towards his room with heavy steps.

Maori walked into the bathroom alone, locked the door, slowly took off his clothes, and got into the bathtub.

The hot water gently wrapped around his body, relieving the day's fatigue.

However, Maori's mind did not calm down as his body relaxed.

Today's confrontation with Vermouth, especially the tense gunfight, made him clearly realize that although he already possessed excellent reasoning ability and marksmanship, his fighting ability was still not strong enough in a real life-and-death struggle.

【Ding! 】

[Congratulations to the host for completing the main mission: Gotei 1000! You have earned 34000 points, and currently have points left.]

[Congratulations to the host for completing the side quest: Get the Universal Roulette 1 time! Currently accumulated 3 times! Do you want to draw a prize? ]

The system made its presence felt in Maori's mind, so Maori simply closed his eyes and started communicating with the system.

"Tongzi, give me some advice, what should I do next?"

Maori muttered to himself.

【Ding! 】

【Analyzing……】

[It is recommended that the host improve his physical strength and purchase hard skills! ]

"Hard work?"

Maori frowned slightly, then suddenly realized.

Although his physical fitness is now far superior to that of ordinary people, if he can further improve his body's defensive capabilities, he will be more calm when facing the enemy.

Thinking of this, Maori spent 10,000 points without hesitation, directly exchanged for a full set of iron shirt, and upgraded it to the grandmaster level.

The hot water was steaming over Maori's body, and he felt the changes brought about by the iron shirt in his mind.

The muscles, bones, skin and flesh seemed to become tougher and stronger under the nourishment of this set of exercises.

Maori tried to take a razor from the side and drew it across his hand. The razor cut his hand like it was on hard cowhide, leaving only a white mark.

Amazing.

Maori sighed, but it wasn't enough.

His gaze fell on the secret book of the Golden Bell Cover again.

Golden Bell Cover and Iron Shirt. The Golden Bell Cover can be considered an advanced version of the Iron Shirt. Unfortunately, the price of this thing is too expensive.

Mao Li gritted his teeth and decided to take a more cost-effective approach - buy the secret book and study it on his own!

With the iron jersey as a base, Maori is confident that his body's hardness has reached a new level, and he also has a certain understanding of hard skills.

In addition, with the Nine Yin Scriptures and the I Ching Bone Strengthening Chapter as a foundation, his comprehension will not be bad.

Although the secret of the Golden Bell Cover is complicated and profound, Mao Li believes that as long as he keeps practicing, he will be able to master it sooner or later.

"Tongzi, spend another ten thousand and give me the secret manual of the Golden Bell Cover."

Maori shouted, and the system gave feedback.

【Ding! 】

[Purchase successful! Current remaining points: 14000]

As the system's voice sounded, Mao Li felt that there was a golden secret book in his mind.

He closed his eyes and began to simulate the process of practicing the Golden Bell Cover in his mind.

Every posture and every breathing adjustment were rehearsed over and over in his mind.

The heat of his body seemed to flow through his body along with his thoughts. A powerful force gradually gathered in his chest, as if it were made of iron and was indestructible.

As Maori focused, the steam in the bathroom seemed to be controlled by his breath, and the ripples on the water surface gradually calmed down under his control.

He immersed himself in cultivation without distraction, and both his body and mind reached an unprecedented level.

That night, Maori practiced silently in the bathtub until dawn, when he slowly woke up from his practice.

Although his physical fatigue had not completely dissipated, he felt a new power surging in his body.

The first ray of sunlight in the morning came in through the bathroom window, and Kogoro Mouri slowly stood up from the already cold water.

He felt the changes in his body and his heart was filled with anticipation.

After a night of practice, he has successfully mastered the Golden Bell Cover.

Standing in front of the mirror, Maori raised his hand, picked up the razor and practiced the Golden Bell Cover technique. A dark golden light quietly emerged on his skin.

That heavy and indestructible feeling seemed to spread over every inch of his skin, and his body seemed to be wrapped in a layer of solid metal.

Mao Li slashed his arm hard with the razor.

The moment the blade touched the skin, there was a hissing sound, but no trace was left.

Maori felt like the razor hit hard metal, without even a trace of pain.

This effect is much better than the iron vest!

Maori looked down at his intact skin and felt a strong sense of satisfaction.

This kind of defensive power is far beyond the imagination of ordinary people.

If he could improve a little bit, he believed he could even withstand bullets!

……

Maoli dried himself, walked out of the bathroom happily, put on his clothes, tied an apron around his neck, and started preparing breakfast.

He hummed a little tune and busied himself in the kitchen skillfully, and the aroma from the pot gradually spread.

Not long after, Haibara Ai walked out of the room.

There were dark circles under her eyes, obviously she didn't get enough rest last night.

Huiyuan Ai walked behind Maori, hugged his legs with a heavy heart, looked up and asked: "Uncle Maori, when will you give me the surprise?"

Mao Li stopped what he was doing, looked back at her, smiled and ruffled her short brown hair, and said softly, "Let's talk after dinner."

After hearing this, Huibara Ai nodded obediently, then returned to the dining table and sat down.

She held her chin, thought for a while, and then asked, "Uncle, what about the laboratory? Professor Hirota is dead, and the laboratory can't continue."

Mao Li touched his chin, and after a moment's silence, he said, "Why don't we build a laboratory near our home? It won't cost much anyway."

After hearing this, Huiyuan Ai looked up in surprise and said anxiously, "The cost of the laboratory is not small. Can Uncle Maori really afford it?"

As he was talking, Conan came out of the room in a daze, his eyes half open and half closed, yawning and saying, "Don't worry, Huibara. I'm afraid that the movie "Titanic" alone will make Uncle Maori a lot of money."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Ai turned to look at Conan and asked with a little doubt: "Are movies so profitable?"

Conan nodded, his tone a little envious and teasing: "From the script to the filming to the promotion, everything is controlled by the Beidou Group. As long as the movie is a big hit, all the box office revenue is Uncle Maori's profit. How can he not make money?"

Mao Li smiled, a hint of pride flashing in his eyes: "That's right, so don't worry about the laboratory. Uncle has plenty of ways."

Xiao Ai looked at Maori's confident smile, and her worries gradually dissipated.

She nodded slightly and smiled again.

Chapter 194 Sisters Reunited

After breakfast, Haibara Ai followed Maori closely.

Seeing that there were no urgent cases in the office, Mao Li made up his mind and decided to fulfill the surprise he had promised before.

So he said to Huiyuan Ai: "Let's go, I'll take you to see the surprise."

They drove to a flower shop.

Haibara Ai frowned, feeling even more confused. What did this place have to do with her surprise?

"Didn't you say you would give me a surprise? Where is it?"

Mao Li smiled and rubbed her head: "Don't worry."

Just then, the door of the flower shop was pushed open and a woman in an apron ran out.

When she saw Mao Li, a warm smile immediately broke out on her face. She threw herself into Mao Li's arms without hesitation, and said in a playful voice: "Kogoro, you're here! I was just about to make a phone call!"

Mao Li smiled and patted her back, responding gently, "I'm here. How is the flower shop these days?"

Kirara Haibara happily began to chat with Maori about the recent situation in the flower shop, as if they were an ordinary couple.

The interaction between the two was natural and intimate, and everything seemed so harmonious.

However, Huibara Ai, who was standing aside, suddenly froze.

Her eyes were fixed on Kirara Huihara, as if she had seen something incredible.

The woman’s face, eyes, smile… Her heart trembled violently, and her whole body froze as if she had been electrocuted.

A long-lost face suddenly appeared in Haibara Ai's mind - that face belonged to her deceased sister, Miyano Akemi.

The woman in front of me is so strikingly similar to Miyano Akemi!

Although Kirara Haibara's hair is brown and short hair makes her look neater and more refreshing, her familiar face and temperament make it impossible for Haibara Ai to ignore her.

Her heart beat faster, her lips trembled slightly, and her mind was in a mess.

She stared blankly at the scene in front of her, not even knowing how to react for a moment.

Maori glanced at Haibara Ai who was standing beside him in a daze, and a smile flashed in his eyes.

He gently pushed away Huihara Kirara who was still nestled in his arms, patted her hands, then looked at Huihara Ai and said slowly: "Xiao Ai, I'm surprised. Look at the person in front of you... Who do you think she is?"

Haibara Ai's throat was dry and she couldn't speak for a moment.

"Kogoro, who are you talking to?"

Kirara Haibara turned her head in confusion, and when her eyes fell on Haibara Ai who was following behind Maori, she suddenly froze, as if she had seen something incredible.
