Xiao Lan did not notice anything wrong and answered foolishly,""I want to help him sew his clothes. What's wrong?”
"Ah?" Conan was stunned.
"Yuanzi accidentally tore off Mochizuki's button at school, so I asked him to come over and help him sew the button." Why did you shout so loudly just now?”
"No…no, nothing!" Conan quickly defended himself.
From the beginning to the end, the garden was watching from the side. Her eyes rolled around, as if she had guessed something, and she smiled at Conan." Hehe…Little brat, you're not thinking the wrong thing, are you?”
Conan was at a loss." W-What are you talking about? I don't understand…"
"Look at you, I must have been right! You saw Xiaolan helping Mochizuki take off her coat, so you're jealous, right? You must have a crush on Xiaolan…" Yuan Zi was very pleased.
Conan's face was red." How is that possible?!" No, no such thing…I…I…"
"Hahaha! Xiaolan, this little brat has a crush on you!”Yuan Zi hurriedly shouted at Xiao Lan.
Xiao Lan smiled nonchalantly, clearly not believing him." Yuanzi, don't spout nonsense.”Lan then looked at Conan and smiled.""Conan only sees me as his sister, right?”
" Mm..." Conan nodded quickly, looking very obedient.
"Pfft, Xiaolan, don't believe him! Little ghosts matured very early these days. They knew everything when they were in the first grade of elementary school. You must be careful when you live with him. Don't let him take advantage of you.”Yuan Zi kindly reminded.
The Moongazer Serpent agreed with this and said,""That's right. Children nowadays can't be treated with common sense. Xiaolan, I suggest you be on your guard against him. By the way, don't tell me you guys are taking a shower together?”
Mochizuki hadn't started to attack Xiaolan yet, but it was necessary to make Xiaolan wary of Conan. Even if it was just because they were classmates, he had to remind Xiaolan.
" How is this possible?!" Xiao Lan shook her head vigorously.
"That's good." Mochizuki had invisibly deprived Conan of his benefits. Even if it wasn't for Xiaolan, he had to do it. Anyway, he just didn't like Conan.
When Kogoro heard this conversation, he actually agreed." Xiaolan, I think your classmate is right. This little brat looks innocent, but for some reason, I feel that he is very cowardly. He is definitely not a good person.”
Conan was so angry that he was like a hot kettle. You're clearly the most cowardly person!
……
Xiao Lan sat on the sofa and helped Mochizuki sew the buttons seriously, trying to make the details impeccable. The garden wanted to chat with Mochizuki, but Mochizuki started chatting with Maori Kogoro.
"Business? It's just so-so. There haven't been many clients coming to visit recently.”When Kowuro said this, there was not the slightest dissatisfaction on his face, as if he had long been used to this kind of cold and cheerless days.
Mochizuki pretended to sigh." Sigh, the other firms are overcrowded, but Detective Mao Li, you have no customers. Recently, these people really had no taste. Detective Mao Li's level was clearly so high, but they went to find those third-rate detectives.”
"Hmm?" Kogoro's expression changed.
This kid…Why does it seem like he's praising me?
However, he was right. I, Maori Kogoro, was once a criminal police officer. Naturally, other detectives could not compare to me. Unfortunately, the customers didn't understand. Instead, they were lured away by those detectives who only knew marketing.
The corners of Conan's mouth twitched. This old man's level was high? If I hadn't helped him in the past, I would have believed him. However, it might seem so to outsiders.
I was the one who solved the case, but this old man took all the benefits…
"To tell you the truth, Detective Mao Li, I'm actually a fan of yours.”Moongazer Serpent said this against his conscience.
"Oh?" Kogoro immediately sat up straight, his eyes glowing." Fans?”
"Yes, I read every report about you carefully. For example, when the daughter of a big boss was kidnapped, you came up with the idea of using a dog to find her…It can be said that no one knows how to live a low life better than you!”
Listening to Mochizuki recount his glorious history, Kogoro smiled so widely that the corners of his mouth almost reached behind his ears. Actually, I'm not as amazing as you say. I'm just a foil to my peers!”
"You're too humble, Detective Mao Li. In my opinion, you are the greatest detective in Japan!”
Both Sonoko and Conan looked at the two of them suspiciously. Even a fool could tell that Mochizuki was flattering them, but Kogoro himself was intoxicated and unable to extricate himself. Xiao Lan stopped what she was doing and looked at the Moongazer Serpent with a strange expression.
Why is Mochizuki suddenly sucking up to my dad?
Finally, Mochizuki bared his fangs." After seeing Detective Mao Li's glorious deeds, I finally found my life goal, which is to become a reporter and interview great detectives like you! Mr. Mao Li, can you inform me in advance when you go out to handle cases in the future so that I can follow you and understand the whole process?”
Of course, he did this to get rid of more people who were " reckless " and get closer to Xiaolan.
Kogoro was originally grinning happily, but when he heard this, his face immediately fell. Follow me? It's already annoying enough to have Conan as a small burden, and you want me to bring along another big burden?
"Of course, I will pay you 500,000 yen as tuition fees every month.”As Mochizuki spoke, he took out a bundle of 10,000 yuan notes from his bag and threw it on the table." Detective Mao Li, I'm very sincere!”
Kogoro stood up abruptly and said earnestly,""Ahem, money is not important. The main thing is that your spirit is very valuable. Young people with ideals like you are rare. Good! I, Maori Kogoro, will make an exception and promise you!”
Everyone's jaws dropped. Wasn't this old man too shameless?
……
After some flattery and money, Mochizuki successfully turned Maori Kogoro into his " event megaphone ", and he would inform him in time every time there was a case.
Why did he do this? Of course, it was so that she could be with Conan…Ptui! It was so that he could openly follow Conan and then contact more people who were willing to sell their lives. Due to the limitations of the trading rules, it was not easy for Mochizuki to find a suitable trading partner, but there were many people who did not care about their lives around Conan.
The fee of 500,000 yuan was nothing compared to the endless stream of trading partners.
However, this move was very unbelievable to Conan. The way he looked at Mochizuki changed.
"What is the purpose of this person trying to get close to Uncle Mao Li?”Conan suspected that Mochizuki's motive was not simple, but he could not say why. Perhaps this person really thought that Uncle Mao Li was very powerful, and he really wanted to become a reporter who specialized in interviewing detectives? Thinking about it carefully, this possibility did exist.
Xiao Lan was afraid that the Moongazer Serpent would be at a disadvantage, so she quickly reminded,""500,000 a month…isn't that a little too much? Mochizuki, where did you get so much money?”According to Xiao Lan's observation, Mochizuki was usually very frugal in school.
Xiaowulang was very angry. Whose side were you on? I am your father!
Mochizuki made up an excuse." Didn't I tell you? Actually, when my parents passed away, they left me a large inheritance, about a few hundred million yuan. I don't even know how to spend it."
The garden was very surprised. So Moongazer Serpent was so rich?
Although a few hundred million yuan was nothing to the garden, it was already an astronomical figure for ordinary people.
A few hundred million? In Kogoro's eyes, Moongazer Serpent seemed to have become a walking golden man. He grabbed Moongazer Serpent's shoulder." Moongazer Serpent! I don't have a son, and you don't have parents. Why don't you just acknowledge me as your godfather?”
F * ck! Are you taking advantage of me?
" No, no, there's no need to be a son…" Perhaps he could consider being a son-in-law.
