Dong dong ~
A knock on the door interrupted Mao Li's thoughts of teasing Conan. Mao Li's eyes narrowed. His detective agency didn't have many people coming. Even if he was a little famous now, there wouldn't be people looking for him to solve the case so quickly. However, there was also the idea that he had found a client because he was famous. After all, Mao Li's popularity was not small even now.
"He's here." Xiao Lan saw someone knocking on the door and got up. She walked to the door and opened it. He saw a young man in plain clothes standing at the door with a bag in his hand.
"Excuse me, is this Maori Kogoro's office?”The young man asked politely when he saw a girl appear.
"Yes, yes! Find a great detective like me! Maori Kogoro, what advice do you have! Hahahaha!" Before Lan could reply, Mao Li flew up from his chair and opened the door to welcome the young man. The way he was laughing and showing off was really like Mao Li from before.
“... Hello, I'm here to ask Mr. Kogoro to help me find a friend. He's missing.”The young man walked into the office and looked at Mao Li, who was laughing sloppily in front of him. He smiled and said in his heart.
"Please sit, please sit!" Mao Li invited the young man to sit on the sofa.
"Conan! Turn off the television! Your detective game ends here!”Mao Li shouted at Conan. It was really like Mao Li's attitude towards Conan before.
“……”
Conan was used to Mao Li's attitude and underestimation. He walked to the TV and turned it off.
"Then! This was…What's your name?" Mao Li was about to ask about the case, but he suddenly didn't ask for the young man's name.
"Ah, oh, my name is Cheng Yuanguang. Mr. Mao Li, please guide me.”The young man was a little unable to react. He immediately returned to normal and replied.
"Why do you know my name?
"Ah, because Mr. Mao Li's name was in the newspaper, I also came because of his fame.”Mr. Cheng Yuan rubbed his head and placed the newspaper with Maori news on the table.
Mao Li saw the newspaper that the young man took out. He paid attention to it and took a look at it again. He immediately came back to his senses and said,"Ahaha!" My name, Maori Kogoro, is in the newspapers! Ahahahaha!"
"Yes, Mr. Mao Li, is this young girl your daughter?”Cheng Yuan looked at Xiao Lan and greeted her normally.
"Yes, Conan! Do you really want to watch a detective drama? Mao Li looked at Cheng Yuan's smiling face and walked to Conan's side. He grabbed Conan's clothes and asked.
"What are you doing, Uncle Mao Li?"
"I see that you're still thinking about the TV series just now. I see that you've been staring at the TV. Do you still want to watch it?”
"Ah? I didn't." Indeed, Conan did not. When Cheng Yuan came in, Conan looked at the client suspiciously.
"Stop arguing! Xiao Lan, take this kid out and buy him a few detective discs!”Mao Li grabbed Conan and threw him into Lan's arms.
"Ah, alright." Xiao Lan couldn't react to her father's appearance. After all, Mao Li was always like this! He had changed from being calm to being moody!
As Mao Li took Conan's hand out of the office, Mao Li said to Cheng Yuan,"Ah, I'm sorry. It's really difficult to handle a case with a child. Mr. Cheng Yuan, have some tea first."”
Looking at Mao Li pushing a cup of hot tea to him, Cheng Yuan said very naturally,"Thank you."”Then, he drank it.
"Mr. Mao Li." However, after drinking it for a few seconds, he found that his mind was a little shaky. The more he shook his head, the more dizzy he became, and then he fainted.
"Normally, the first thing you say when you open the door is,'Is this Mr. Maori's office? After all, my name is pasted on the big window of the office, Mr. Chengyuan'.”
Mao Li stood up straight and looked at Cheng Yuan who was lying on the sofa. He had been suspicious of Cheng Yuan's words since the first time he entered the room, which was why his attitude had changed. As he spoke, he felt that this person was not looking for him to handle the case.
“!”Cheng Yuan got up in a daze and found that his hands were cuffed together and his legs could not move.
"Mr. Mao Li! What is this?"
"You were found by Gin, right?"
"How do you know?"
"Oh? Admit it, people are best at telling the truth in panic.”The atmosphere that Mao Li had created for Cheng Yuan and the nervousness of being handcuffed, a sensitive sentence had triggered his true identity.
"Why did Gin send you here? Where is he? What is the purpose?" Mao Li asked a bunch of questions.
“.. Ha!"
Just as Mao Li was asking the question, Cheng Yuan suddenly died while foaming at the mouth and twitching all over!
"Gin." Mao Li had only drugged Cheng Yuan, so it was impossible for him to be killed. Seeing Cheng Yuan die from the poison, he thought of the cunning Gin. Now, he had finally caught someone close to Gin, but he died without saying anything.
Mao Li picked up his cup of tea on the table and drank it helplessly. He walked to the window and looked outside. He did not notice anyone suspicious.
