Simultaneous Time Travel: Am I the only normal person among them?

He has frequently encountered cases involving three or four choices.

It's as if someone is deliberately feeding him experience, trying to guide Luke step by step towards becoming a famous detective.

This led to a lot of bad luck for the people around Luke.

The male escorts at the host club have been changing shifts very frequently lately.

The assistant store manager, lying in the hospital, watched the number of fellow patients increase every day, and he felt numb.

"Manager, what a coincidence, you're here too!"

"Yes, that's right, I was stabbed by a customer..."

"Qingfeng? Qingfeng was unlucky; he was poisoned by a guest and sent to his death."

The male escorts, some with minor injuries and others with serious ones, chattered amongst themselves as they gave instructions to the assistant manager.

The assistant store manager fell into deep thought.

No, you're all in now, so who's greeting the guests?

But when the store manager saw the following month's revenue, he felt he had discovered some incredible method.

The male escorts in the shop have personal accident insurance, and each of them has high-end insurance.

After all, this industry is a mixed bag, and you never know when you might get caught up in it.

so.

Seeing the compensation that was several times higher than that for serving drinks, the store manager felt that it wasn't all bad that everyone was injured.

Besides, isn't Kazama, who actually made the biggest profits, still safe and sound?

Let others get hurt, consider it a paid vacation.

With these profit figures, he won't have to lick the store manager's shoes next month.

The assistant store manager was all smiles.

As the number of cases continued to increase, despite Luke's desire for fame, reporters came like hyenas drawn by the scent of a car.

They immediately noticed this "famous detective" whose background was rather unusual.

"Shocking! The Emperor of Darkness! A genius rarely seen in a millennium!"

"The son of a white fox in the Heisei era, a spirit prince with supernatural abilities, has solved numerous major cases!"

"Ruri Kazama: The Dream Man of Japanese Women, the Most Perfect Person in the World!"

Various miscellaneous reports caused Luke's fame to skyrocket.

Originally, Luke was only famous in the host club industry and some unspeakable circles, and was known as the pinnacle of flower arrangement.

But most respectable people don't know much about Luke.

After all, the main theme of this world is detectives, and detectives are the only characters that can be accepted by people.

Now, Luke has merged two professions that were originally impossible to connect: male escort and detective.

Coupled with the vanity of some wealthy women in the shadows, Luke was quickly elevated to a god-like status.

In an instant, Luke subdued all the iconic characters: "Holmes of the Heisei era," "Sleeping Kogoro," "Phantom Thief 1412," and "Charming Naniwa."

"What's so praiseworthy about this scoundrel who made his fortune by deceiving women!"

Kogoro Mouri dismissed it with disdain. He believed that because there were so many rookie detectives who relied solely on their image, experienced detectives like himself had no business coming their way.

The young detective Conan nodded in agreement.

He could understand why Uncle Mori was suppressed; why was he inferior to that guy?

Is it just because he's appearing on screen less often these days?

Pah! You bunch of guys who only care about trending topics!

After returning from the host club, Conan went to Professor Agasa's house a few days ago to discuss whether or not to investigate Luke.

But after a few days, he seemed to have subconsciously forgotten about it.

It's as if Conan would never remember that his main mission is to investigate the organization's secrets unless he bumps into someone from the organization on the spot.

"Dad, Mr. Kazama isn't that kind of person."

Xiao Lan felt somewhat helpless.

In recent days, Sonoko has often dragged her along to visit Mr. Kazama.

Yes, we didn't go to the store.

The host club is short-staffed lately, and there are too many people who want to see Mr. Kazama, and they are all very powerful.

Although Sonoko is approachable and has a lot of connections, she can't fight against so many people.

She can suppress one person, but not a group of people.

So, is poor Sonoko just supposed to watch helplessly as Mr. Kazama is pinned down?

of course not!

So she found all sorts of excuses to keep getting Luke out of her house.

Have some tea today, go to an amusement park tomorrow, and go shopping the day after.

Of course, having a husband doesn't mean she can forget her best friend; she often takes Xiaolan with her when she goes out.

Perhaps it was because of the addition of these two brilliant and talented individuals that Luke experienced various criminal cases more and more frequently.

After experiencing these cases, Ran Mouri's image of Mr. Kazama has gradually become more positive.

Aside from his relationship with his mother, Mr. Kazama is indeed a very outstanding person.

He is gentle and considerate towards women, respects their opinions, but is fearless in the face of difficulties, and even steps forward in many critical moments.

No wonder Sonoko fell in love with Kazama-san at first sight.

Sonoko must have seen Kazama-san's shining soul!

Sonoko: Huh?

"Xiaolan, stay away from that guy from now on. He's no good!"

Kogoro Mouri warned.

"He's definitely trying to change his previous bad impression of you, and then..."

When it comes to "then", Kogoro Mouri stops talking.

He didn't want to mention that woman.

But Xiaolan's eyes lit up, and she asked hopefully:

"Dad, I happen to have some free time lately, how about we invite Mom to have dinner together?"

Xiaolan was genuinely worried.

If one day Mom can't resist and actually has something happen between her and Mr. Kazama, then the perfect family she envisioned will completely vanish.

After all, Mr. Kazama is just too outstanding.

"Hmph, I have nothing to say to that woman!"

Kogoro Mouri is stubborn and opinionated.

"dad."

Xiao Lan looks so pitiful.

Kogoro Mouri turned his head away, but Ran leaned closer and handed him her phone.

In the end, there was really no other way.

"Hmph, just this once!"

Kogoro muttered to himself.

Xiao Lan beamed with joy.

Beep—Beep—Beep—

The phone rang, and Ran stared intently at Kogoro Mouri.

Answer it, Mom, answer it quickly!

Xiao Lan prayed silently.

"Hello, is this Xiaolan?"

The call was connected.

But Mom's voice sounded tired, or rather, languid.

What is Mom doing right now?

"it's me."

Kogoro Mouri replied in a muffled voice.

"You? Did you call me for something?"

Mom seemed to be exercising; she was slightly out of breath.

Chapter 104 The Snowflakes Are Falling in My Hometown, Mr. Kogoro

Kogoro Mouri hesitated for a moment, but looking into his daughter's expectant eyes, he gritted his teeth and said:

"Eri, how about we find some time to sit down and have a meal together as a family?"

Yes, that's right, Dad, that's it!

Xiao Lan clenched her fists, jumping for joy.

If we had done this earlier, how could Mom have left home!

"Have a meal?"

Eri paused, seemingly to catch her breath.

"No, I'm very busy lately, I'll hang up now."

They said they were going to hang up, but in the end, a faint echo could still be heard.

"Is someone looking for you, Eri?"

"fine."

Toot toot.

After hanging up the phone, Kogoro Mouri's face turned ashen.

Although the voice was very faint, he could tell it was a man's voice.

"Dad, did Mom agree?"

Xiao Lan is looking forward to it.

She didn't hear clearly what had just happened.

Kogoro Mouri's breathing became somewhat rapid.

Conan realized something was wrong, so he tugged at Ran's sleeve. Ran looked down in confusion.

"Ran-neechan, Professor Agasa said he has news about Shinichi-nii and wants you to go see him."

Conan quickly came up with a brilliant idea.

When Ran heard Shinichi's name, she didn't realize something was wrong.

"Oh, is that so, Dad? Tell me later where Mom is going to eat, I'll be right back."

After saying that, Xiaolan walked straight out.

Conan glanced cautiously at Uncle Mori.

Uncle Mori had a dark expression on his face, staring intently at the ceiling, lost in thought.

Conan shivered, then jogged downstairs with Ran.
