Her movements were easy and natural, as if this was already her daily routine.

"Hey, Kudo, does your mother know your identity?"

Hattori Heiji, who was standing by, came closer and asked quietly, with a tone full of gloating.

Conan glared at Hattori helplessly, his mouth twitching: "What do you think? If she didn't know, would she bully me so unscrupulously?"

He rubbed his head and muttered bitterly.

"Hahaha, I really sympathize with you."

Hattori Heiji laughed with glee and patted Conan on the shoulder, obviously enjoying the fun.

At the same time, Yukiko has turned her attention to Xiaolan.

She smiled and pulled Xiaolan over, saying kindly: "Xiaolan, take me to find your father! I just saw Terahara Mari coming out of the conference room, and Maori Kogoro must be there too."

Yukiko didn't give Xiaolan any chance to refuse. She just took her arm and walked towards the meeting room with a menacing look.

"Mr. Terahara..."

The staff standing by was a little hesitant and looked at Mari Terahara worriedly, wanting to ask whether they should stop it.

Mari Terahara sighed softly and waved her hand, signaling the staff not to stop her.

She was aware of Kudo Yukiko's status and personality, and knew that it was best for her to obey the arrangements at this time.

So, she followed Yukiko and led them all to the meeting room.

Yukiko's domineering attitude made the atmosphere on the scene subtle and tense. Everyone watched this scene silently, but no one dared to step forward to stop it.

The door to the conference room is just ahead, but Kogoro Mori has no idea of ​​the storm he is about to face.

At this moment, Kogoro Mori was leaning comfortably in his chair, with the tired Ozaki Midori leaning beside him, while Hanai Akiko and Usui Ritsuko were also sitting quietly beside him with gentle expressions.

He vaguely heard the commotion outside the meeting room just now, but he remained calm, as if it had nothing to do with him.

The three women had already packed up by now, with no sign of the antics that had taken place.

Suddenly, with a "bang", the door of the conference room was pushed open, and Kudo Yukiko rushed in with the helpless Xiaolan.

Mao Li remained calm, just raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at Yukiko.

Her aura was like thunder, her eyes were sharp, and her posture was proud, which changed the atmosphere of the whole room in an instant.

Yukiko walked over with a smile, casually took Xiaolan's arm, and glanced at the three beautiful women around Maori, her tone frivolous but sharp: "Are you having fun, Maori-kun?"

Mao Li remained calm and nodded calmly, saying slowly: "It is a very pleasant thing to work hard with your subordinates."

Yukiko snorted and looked at him doubtfully, with a hint of dissatisfaction in her eyes.

Xiaolan blushed and said to Maori awkwardly: "Dad, I'm sorry, I couldn't stop Aunt Yukiko and disturbed your work."

After listening to this, Yukiko smiled and shook her head, and teased Xiaolan: "Don't be fooled by your father. Maybe he is playing with women in the conference room, or four of them at the same time."

As she spoke, her eyes deliberately glanced at the calm Mari Terahara, as if there was something else behind her words.

Maori didn't care about Yukiko's sarcasm. He just chuckled and shook his head. He raised his hand to signal Ozaki Midori, Hanai Akiko and Usui Ritsuko to go out first. Then he nodded to Terahara Mari, signaling her to follow the three women and leave.

"You guys go out first, I'll talk to Yukiko."

Xiaolan was a little embarrassed at first, so she hurriedly ran out with the others, leaving Yukiko and Mori alone in the room.

The room fell silent for a moment. Yukiko raised her chin slightly with a faint smile on the corner of her mouth.

"You're so angry, Yukiko. Did you miss me?"

Maori walked up to her and hugged her without any hesitation.

Although Yukiko pretended to be arrogant, she did not refuse Maori's hug. She just pushed him gently and said unforgivingly: "Humph, I thought you were already dazzled by so many women."

Mao Li smiled dotingly, leaned close to her ear, and said softly: "How could that be? You are the best one."

Yukiko raised her eyes and asked casually, "Am I better than Eri Kisaki?"

Mao Li was now speechless, his brows slightly furrowed, obviously not knowing how to answer.

After all, in his heart, Xiaolan will always be first, Kisaki Eri is second, and Yukiko can only be third at most.

Seeing that Maori was speechless, Yukiko smiled triumphantly, secretly happy in her heart, but unwilling to let Maori escape easily.

"Huh, looking at your appearance, there's still no way I can be ranked first."

Maori could only sigh helplessly. Although he couldn't give the most appropriate answer at the moment, he still couldn't resist Yukiko's unique charm in his heart.

He tightened his arms, hugged her tighter, and simply bent down to kiss her.

There is nothing that can’t be solved in one go. If it doesn’t work, try two times!

"Don't talk, love me!"

Chapter 298 Kidnapping?

Conan saw a group of girls coming out of the conference room, while his mother Kudo Yukiko and Mori Kogoro were still staying in the conference room, and he couldn't help feeling a little worried.

He lowered his head and thought for a moment, thinking, "I wonder what my mother and Uncle Maori will talk about when they are alone together."

Confused, he decided to take the opportunity to eavesdrop at the door of the meeting room.

Conan quietly approached the door of the conference room, put his ear to it, trying to hear something.

"Um--"

dong dong dong...

Damn it, I can't hear anything except some rhythmic sounds.

Before Conan could make any progress, Mari Terahara suddenly appeared in front of him, gently blocked his movements, and said with a smile: "Little Conan, don't eavesdrop."

Conan raised his head awkwardly, showing an innocent expression, but still puzzled in his heart, and asked: "What are they talking about? Why don't they come out?"

Mari Terahara gently explained: "Mr. Maori and your mother are discussing things related to Titanic. Before the film is released, the discussion cannot be interrupted."

After all, Jack and Rousi have a sex scene in Titanic, so it's normal for Mr. Maori and Yukiko to rehearse it.

Conan could only step back with regret, but he felt vaguely uneasy in his heart.

"Although Mari Terahara said they were talking about movies, why do I always feel like my mother is being bullied..." He thought silently, but there was nothing he could do.

At this moment, a nervous-looking staff member hurriedly walked up to Mari Terahara and whispered something in her ear.

Mari Terahara was slightly startled, and her expression immediately became serious.

Although Conan didn't hear it clearly, he caught a few key words from their conversation: "TWO-MIX was kidnapped."

"Kidnapping?"

Conan's heart tightened, his detective intuition was instantly triggered, and he keenly realized that this was a major event.

Mari Terahara pondered for a moment, her eyes involuntarily looking towards the door of the conference room.

Apparently, she was considering whether to disturb Kogoro Mori who was inside.

If she bothered Mao Li, the case should make some progress soon, but she hesitated, after all, Mao Li had just promised in the morning that he would not handle the case during this period.

"Hey, what's the problem?" Hattori Heiji noticed the nervousness on Terahara Mari's face and stepped forward to interrupt, "I'm a high school detective from Kansai, Hattori Heiji, I can help."

Mari Terahara hesitated for a moment and frowned slightly.

She quickly weighed the situation, then nodded and whispered, "I'll go ask Mr. Maori."

As soon as Mari Terahara entered the meeting room, she quickly closed the door to prevent people outside from seeing what was going on inside.

There was obviously a brief panic in the house, and the faint sounds were mixed with whispers and slight collisions.

"Hey, how did you come in..."

Yukiko covered herself shyly, and Maori simply hooked his finger.

"It's okay, Mari, you come too!"

……

After a while, Mari Terahara stood inside the door, adjusting her breathing, trying her best to stay calm, and tidying up her messy clothes.

She quickly adjusted her hair, then walked out again with a slightly shaky step.

When Mari Terahara returned to the corridor outside, her cheeks were slightly flushed, but her expression remained calm.

She walked up to Hattori Heiji and whispered, "Mr. Mori has agreed to hand this case over to you."

"Great!"

Hearing this, Hattori Heiji smiled excitedly and patted Conan on the shoulder, "Let's go, Conan! Let's solve the case!"

"and many more……"

Conan has not completely let go of his doubts, and he is still thinking about what happened in the conference room.

Although Mari Terahara looked calm when she came out, Conan's keen intuition told him that the situation inside was not simple.

But before he could react, Hattori Heiji grabbed him and pulled him towards the case.

"It's really worrying..."

Yuanshan Heye sighed and shook his head helplessly behind them.

Her family had close ties with the Hattori family, and if Hattori Heiji got into trouble, she would probably be blamed.

"Ran, please come with me. If anything happens to Hattori, we can help him."

Yuanshan and Ye said.

Xiaolan thought about it for a moment and nodded. "Okay, I'll go with you."

Seeing the group of people leave, Mari Terahara let out a sigh of relief, the blush on her face had not yet faded.

She turned back to the door of the conference room. Before entering, she instructed the staff around her, "Go find the 'flower' group. Mr. Maori wants to see them."

After saying that, Mari Terahara opened the door and returned to the meeting room.

……

Hattori Heiji and Conan stood at the crime scene, their eyes fixed on the police who were talking to the criminal.

The core of the case is the members of the TWO-MIX group, a man and a woman, who were kidnapped by unidentified kidnappers.

The kidnappers demanded the handover of a tape of TWO-MIX's new song, claiming that they would release the hostages only after the tape was handed over.

"The prisoner clearly has no intention of releasing the hostages..."

Hattori Heiji stroked his chin and analyzed calmly.

While listening to the conversation between the police and the criminal, he quickly connected the details of the scene with the criminal's intentions.

Conan stood aside, still thinking about his mother and Uncle Maori. Suddenly, he clapped his hands: "No! How can there be a sound of tables colliding while we are talking about something! Mom is not being bullied!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a deep voice came from the other end of the police line: "Ask the little boy to deliver the tape."

The criminal directly asked Conan to deliver the tape in person.

The scene was silent for a few seconds, and everyone's eyes were focused on Conan.

Conan:?

He was confused. What happened?

Inspector Megure was holding the phone, looking extremely embarrassed. He turned to look at Hattori Heiji standing beside him, frowned and asked, "What's going on? Where's Brother Mori? Why didn't he come? This is a major case."

Megure obviously had some reservations about Hattori Heiji's abilities. After all, in his mind, Mouri Kogoro was the trustworthy detective.

Hattori Heiji smiled helplessly, but his eyes were full of confidence: "Inspector Megure, don't worry! With me here, this case will be solved!"

When Xiaolan heard the criminal asking Conan to deliver the tape, her face was full of worry.

She stepped forward and said firmly, "I'll go too! I'm worried about Conan being alone!"

"Sister Xiaolan?"

Conan stared at Xiaolan blankly, and the criminal hung up the phone, obviously not ready to chat anymore.
