Maori Kogoro's daily life in the science harem

Yumi Miyamoto rushed over, quickly controlled them, handcuffed them, and arrested the two criminals.

Mao Li turned and walked to the trunk of the Cadillac, only to see that the rear of the car was dented due to the collision. His brows furrowed slightly.

Seeing this, Conan hurriedly shouted: "Uncle Maori, we need tools to break open the trunk!"

Upon hearing this, Maori waved his hand to indicate that it was not necessary. He bent down and held the edge of the trunk with both hands.

Only an unpleasant metal squeak was heard, and he pulled with great force, and the trunk lid was torn open in his hands, revealing the scene inside.

As the lid was opened, the scene inside stunned everyone: Ayumi was curled up in a large box, hugging her knees and shivering.

Her eyes were filled with horror.

Mao Li was relieved to see that Ayumi was safe and sound.

He reached out his hand and gently helped Ayumi out of the box, and whispered to her, "Ayumi, it's okay, you are safe now."

Ayumi whimpered and looked up at Maori, seemingly still not fully recovered from her fear.

Maori patted her head gently, and Ayumi gradually recovered from her fear. Her eyes slowly moved towards Maori.

When she saw Maori's familiar face, she felt a surge of warmth and security in her heart.

Unable to hold back her tears any longer, she threw herself into Maori's arms, hugged him tightly, and cried bitterly.

"Uncle Maori..."

Ayumi's voice came out as a faint whimper in Mori's arms.

Her body trembled slightly and her tears soaked Maori's clothes.

Maoli hugged her gently and patted her back tenderly, trying to calm her down.

"It's okay, Ayumi, it's okay."

Maori said softly, rubbing Ayumi's back gently.

Ayumi's crying gradually subsided, but she still held Mori tightly, as if she hoped to completely forget the horror that had just happened in this way.

Maori continued to comfort her until her crying gradually stopped and her emotions stabilized.

【Ding! 】

[Congratulations to the host for completing the main mission: Gotei 1000! You have earned 18000 points, and currently have points left.]

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

The system prompts popped up, proving that the incident was indeed completely over.

"I'll leave the aftermath to you."

Mao Li smiled and said to Miyamoto Yumi and Miike Naeko

The two saluted Maori and said they would handle the follow-up matters properly.

Maori turned around, comforted the children, and told them to leave first.

Originally, he wanted to let Ayumi leave with him, but Ayumi insisted on holding on to Mori tightly and was unwilling to let go.

Faced with Ayumi's insistence, Maori sighed helplessly and finally decided to send her home.

When Mori took Ayumi away, Miyamoto Yumi and Miike Naeko watched their backs, their hearts filled with emotion.

Miyamoto Yumi's eyes sparkled like stars, and she sighed, "When looking for a man, I want to find one who is this handsome, this rich, and this capable!"

Miike Naeko shook her head helplessly and mentioned the past, "What about the man you liked before?"

Miyamoto Yumi immediately responded firmly: "How can there be such a person! I declare that I will not marry anyone but Mr. Maori now!"

Her words were full of determination and enthusiasm, as if Maori had become the most ideal partner in her mind.

Miike Naeko looked at Miyamoto Yumi with a wry smile, knowing in her heart that Miyamoto Yumi had completely fallen into the worship of Mori.

……

“My home is here!”

Ayumi huddled in Maori's arms and said to him seriously, "Uncle Maori is so handsome, and he is also Ayumi's savior. When Ayumi grows up, she will marry Uncle Maori!"

Chapter 224: Women are soft by nature, but strong as mothers

Mao Li carried Ayumi to her door and raised his hand and knocked gently.

After a moment, the door lock made a slight sound and the door slowly opened a crack.

Michiko Yoshida cautiously poked her head out, a hint of confusion and nervousness flashing in her eyes.

When she saw Mao Li holding Ayumi standing at the door, she couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, with confusion in her eyes.

"May I ask you are?"

Yoshida Michiko's voice was a little hesitant, and she was obviously surprised by this scene.

Maori smiled slightly and tried to explain in a gentle tone: "Hello, I am Maori Kogoro. There was an accident in the park just now, and I happened to be there, so I helped rescue Ayumi."

When Yoshida Michiko heard this, the expression on her face immediately became complicated.

She glanced nervously at Ayumi who was nestled in Maori's arms, her eyes full of worry and gratitude.

"Thank you very much, Mr. Maori..."

There was obvious gratitude in her words, but also a hint of uneasiness and caution. She bowed slightly, then gently opened the door and invited Maori and Ayumi into the house.

After entering the house, Yoshida Michiko was busy pouring tea. Although her movements were quick, her fingers were trembling slightly.

She handed a cup of tea to Maori and whispered, "Please have some tea..."

Mao Li took the teacup politely and nodded slightly.

He looked at Ayumi in his arms, then raised his head and explained seriously: "Ayumi got into some trouble while playing in the park today. I happened to be nearby and helped rescue her. She may have been a little frightened, but she is safe now."

After listening to this, tears flashed in Michiko Yoshida's eyes. She clenched her hands tightly, looking even more uneasy.

She asked tentatively: "Mr. Maori, thank you very much... But you are so busy and have done so much for Ayumi, may I ask... do you need any compensation? I am willing to..."

Mao Li interrupted her gently, shook his head, and said with a smile: "No reward is needed, Mrs. Yoshida. Ayumi is a very cute child. I like her very much and I am glad to help."

When Ayumi heard what Maori said, she immediately smiled and said in a sweet voice: "Ayumi also likes Uncle Maori! When I grow up, Ayumi will marry Uncle Maori!"

Both Mori and Yoshida Michiko couldn't help laughing, and they both thought of this as a child's joke.

However, Michiko Yoshida bowed deeply to Mori again, her eyes full of gratitude.

Mao Li smiled and nodded, then patted Ayumi's head gently to comfort her.

Seeing that Mao Li really liked Ayumi, Yoshida Michiko seemed to relax a little, but she was still a little worried and asked softly: "Ayumi, is she... really okay?"

"Ayumi is fine,"

Mao Li smiled and looked down at Ayumi in his arms, and continued, "She was just a little frightened, but she's fine now."

"That's good……"

After hearing Mori's comfort, Yoshida Michiko finally relaxed completely. Her originally tense expression gradually relaxed, and a relaxed smile appeared on her face.

She obviously felt Mao Li's kindness. After confirming that he was not a bad person, she finally plucked up the courage, smiled slightly, and sincerely invited him: "Mr. Mao Li, thank you so much for today... Since you are already at home, why don't you stay and have dinner together? I'll do it now."

Maori looked at her with some surprise, obviously not expecting Yoshida Michiko to invite him so enthusiastically.

He wanted to refuse, but when he saw Ayumi looking at him expectantly, he hesitated for a moment.

"No, don't bother, really..." Maori said hesitantly.

However, Yoshida Michiko smiled and shook her head, gently insisting: "It won't be a bother. You have done so much for us, this meal is what you deserve."

Mao Li could not refuse, so he nodded and agreed: "Then I will obey your command. Thank you for your help."

When Ayumi heard that Maori agreed to stay, she jumped up excitedly, her face filled with smiles: "That's great! Uncle Maori is staying for dinner, Ayumi is so happy! Daddy is never at home, now that Uncle Maori is at home to eat together, Ayumi feels like her daddy is with her!"

When Mao Li heard this, he frowned slightly, looked at Ayumi in confusion, and asked, "Ayumi, your father is not at home?"

Ayumi shook her head innocently and explained, "Dad seems to be very busy at work. He is always out and rarely comes home. He rarely eats with us. Mom often says that Dad has a lot of things to do."

While listening to Ayumi's words, Maori looked thoughtfully at Yoshida Michiko who was busy in the kitchen.

He carefully observed Yoshida Michiko's expression and found that when she heard Ayumi mention her father, she paused slightly, but quickly returned to normal, as if she didn't want to talk about this topic too much.

Mao Li looked around the room again and found that although this was a cozy little home, there were not many traces of men in the room.

Although there were some men's items, most were brand new with no signs of use.

……

At the warm invitation of Yoshida Michiko, Mori started dinner with her and Ayumi.

At the dinner table, Yoshida Michiko behaved very well, asking Maori about his preferences from time to time and adding dishes for him several times.

Ayumi was eating happily beside them, and from time to time she excitedly shared her interesting things at school with Maori. The atmosphere was very harmonious.

After the meal, Mao Li put down his chopsticks, wiped the corners of his mouth, and asked casually: "Ayumi, just now you said that your father is always working outside and rarely comes home. What kind of job does he do?"

As soon as these words came out, Yoshida Michiko's smile froze slightly. She lowered her head to clean up the dishes and deliberately changed the subject: "Mr. Maori, are you used to eating here? These dishes are home-cooked, I hope you don't mind."

Maori naturally understood it and did not ask any more questions. He just looked at Yoshida Michiko meaningfully.

He sighed softly, with a hint of concern in his tone: "Life is not easy, right?"

Yoshida Michiko paused for a moment, and a trace of hesitation flashed in her eyes, but she quickly concealed it, forced a smile and shook her head: "It's okay, Ayumi and I are living well, although our life is dull, but we don't lack anything."

Maoli looked at her, and a maternal glow arose spontaneously.

Although the woman in front of him looked weak, she had obviously gone through a lot of difficulties and hardships in order to raise Ayumi.

There was a look of strength in her eyes, as if she was willing to endure everything for Ayumi.

"Women are soft by nature, but they become strong when they become mothers..."

Maori secretly sighed in his heart.

After dinner, Maori stood up and said goodbye.

Ayumi seemed reluctant to leave. She held Maori's hand and was unwilling to let go: "Uncle Maori, you must come to see Ayumi again!"

Chapter 225 Marriage by Agreement

Mao Li touched Ayumi's head, smiled gently and said, "Of course, I will. You have to listen to your mother and study hard, understand?"

Ayumi nodded, and although she was reluctant, she still obediently let go of his hand.

Maori looked at Yoshida Michiko, nodded slightly, then turned and left their home.

Standing at the door, Michiko Yoshida looked at Mori's back, and a complex emotion surged in her heart, including gratitude, melancholy, and a trace of indescribable feelings.

Ayumi stood beside her, her eyes full of longing and expectation, and whispered: "Mom, I must marry Uncle Maori in the future..."

Yoshida Michiko smiled gently, stroked Ayumi's hair, and said softly: "Okay, as long as you like it, mom will support you."

……

Michiko Yoshida brought Ayumi back to the room and closed the door gently. The light in the room was soft and warm.

She walked to the bed and her eyes fell on a photo on the bedside table. It was a photo of her and her husband.

She is smiling brightly in the photo, while the man next to her looks a little indifferent.

She looked at the photo, mixed emotions welling up in her heart, and she sighed secretly.

This marriage was a marriage of agreement from the very beginning.

In order to treat her mother's illness, Yoshida Michiko agreed to marry Yoshida on the condition that she helped Yoshida raise Ayumi and Yoshida provided her with financial support.

At first, everything seemed calm. Michiko Yoshida took good care of Ayumi, while Yoshida worked outside and only returned home occasionally.

However, as time went by, Yoshida gradually lost interest in his daughter, and eventually he simply stopped coming back. He even asked Michiko for money and threatened her.

Michiko Yoshida had a hard time, but she never told Ayumi a thing.

She knew that Ayumi was a sensible child who could take care of herself, which allowed her to work during the day and barely make ends meet.

Perhaps it is because of this that Ayumi often likes to play with the two boys. She longs for some male care to make up for the lack of fatherly love.

Tonight's dinner was unexpectedly wonderful for Michiko Yoshida.

Having a man at home to eat with, even if he was just a man she had just met like Mao Li, she felt a long-lost warmth and stability.
