The next morning, Maori Kogoro called and asked Mochizuki to go to his house for lunch. Only then did Mochizuki remember that Kogoro had said that he wanted to invite her to try the taste of Xiaolan to thank her for helping him advertise during the interview at the art gallery.
Ah, no, it was to taste Xiaolan's cooking.
Since Kogoro was so enthusiastic, Mochizuki didn't stand on ceremony. He took the bus directly to Mi Hua Town. To be honest, he really wanted to try Xiaolan's cooking.
"Haha, Moongazer, you're here? Hurry up and sit!" When Xiaowulang saw Mochizuki, it was as if he had seen a lucky star. He hurriedly asked Mochizuki to sit down. "I specially asked Xiaolan to buy more vegetables today. You'll have some to eat later!”
Moongazer Serpent also smiled,"That's really exciting!"”
Then Mochizuki greeted Conan," Conan, hello!”
"Hello, Brother Wangyue!" Conan replied in a childish voice.
The smell of food was already coming from the kitchen of the firm. Lan came over with the dishes and greeted Mochizuki with a smile. Then she placed the dishes on the table and went back to the kitchen to get busy. Xiao Lan was wearing an apron and looked like a housewife.
Soon, all the dishes were cooked. Xiao Lan took off her apron and sat down to eat.
"How about Moongazer Serpent? Is there a problem with my cooking?" Lan asked carefully.
Usually, she only cooked for her father and Conan. She had never specially cooked to entertain guests.
"Of course not! This is awesome!"
Hearing the Moongazer Serpent's words, Xiao Lan smiled happily.
……
Just as lunch was about to finish, someone suddenly knocked on the door. "Are you a guest?" Lan muttered to herself.”
Because the kitchen was on the third floor, and everyone was eating on the third floor, there was no one on the second floor, which served as the office. If a guest came to visit and no one answered the door on the second floor, it was normal to try knocking on the third floor.
"Ha! Little brat, open the door!" Kogoro summoned Conan.
Although Conan was reluctant, he still obediently went over and opened the door.
A female voice came from outside." Is Detective Maori in?”
He took another look and saw a woman with short hair. She had a smile on her face and was wearing a black business suit. She looked very elegant.
Kowuro's eyes lit up. What a beauty!
"Cough cough! I am Maori Kogoro! May I ask if there's anything I can help you with?”Xiaowulang grabbed the woman's hand. There was only integrity on his face, and there was no trace of improper thoughts.
Yes, because the desire was in her heart, not on her face.
Conan, Wangyue, and Xiaolan were dumbfounded.
F * ck! When did you go over? Can you teleport?
The woman quietly broke free from Maori Kogoro's perverted hand, and her expression did not change." Let me introduce myself. My name is Ritsuko Ishibing. I'm also a lawyer, just like your wife, Hideori.”
Ice Ritsuko? Mochizuki had an impression of this name. Wasn't this the woman who tried to seduce Maori Kogoro in a certain case, but was killed before she succeeded? Why was she here?
"Hmm?" When Kogoro heard her mention his wife, he put away all his frivolity.
When Xiao Lan heard the other party mention her mother, she hurriedly stood up and asked,""You know my mother?"
Ritsuko was still smiling." You're the daughter of the lawyer, right? We're already so old…Lawyer Fei and I do know each other. In a sense, we're competitors.”
"Then why are you looking for me?" Kogoro asked.
"I'm not here to see you. I'm here to see you on behalf of Mr. Sakamoto Kitaro and Ms. Sakamoto Mariko.”
As soon as these words were said, Kogoro's expression immediately became ugly.
Of course, he remembered the Sakamoto couple. Their son tried to take advantage of Xiaolan on the bus, but Xiaolan sent him to the detention center. They even came to threaten and bribe Xiao Lan, hoping that she would change her mind and claim that what happened on the bus was just a misunderstanding.
Xiaolan became vigilant after hearing Ritsuko's words. This woman was actually sent by the Sakamoto couple…
Ritsuko took out something that looked like an envelope and handed it to Maori Kogoro, saying,""This is a lawyer's letter. It looks like you guys are having dinner, so I won't disturb you. Tomorrow afternoon, Mr. and Mrs. Sakamoto will come over with me.”
"Stop! What do you mean?" Kogoro questioned sternly. Just now, Kogoro had wanted to please her because of her beauty, but now, he was no longer giving her a good look.
Although he, Maori Kogoro, was lecherous, he could still distinguish right from wrong.
Ritsuko stopped in her tracks, turned around, and replied with a smile,"Detective Mao Li, that's not very accurate…It's not what I mean, it's what you mean. I hope you can make the right choice. Otherwise, I'll see you in court.”
After saying this, Ritsuko Shuibing ignored Maori Kogoro's shouts and left.
"Damn it! This woman's attitude really pisses me off!”Kogoro was furious.
Mochizuki reminded him,"Let's look at the so-called lawyer's letter first."”
"Yes, yes! " I want to see what the lawyer's letter says…" Kogoro opened the envelope and took out the lawyer's letter. Mochizuki, Xiaolan, and Conan all gathered together to read the contents.
Then, they were stunned by the contents.
At the beginning, it was the same condition that he had mentioned last time. He hoped that Xiaolan would change her mind and claim that what happened on the bus was a misunderstanding. The Sakamoto couple was willing to give Xiaolan a million yuan.
The latter part of the story was unpleasant to hear. They claimed that Xiao Lan had deliberately framed her son and wanted to blackmail him. In fact, Ichiro Sakamoto did not do anything. The couple simply did not want to make a big deal out of it, so they raised the above conditions. If Xiao Lan was still stubborn, they didn't mind using legal means to deal with her.
"How could they do this…How could they do this?”Xiao Lan was so angry that tears almost fell from her eyes when she read the lawyer's letter. He was clearly the evil person, so why did it become me who was the evil person?
How could a seventeen-year-old girl who had yet to enter society experience such a thing? Xiao Lan felt very sad and wronged.
"Preposterous!" Koguro slammed the table angrily and shouted,""You actually dare to accuse the wicked first, you actually dare to distort the truth! The people of the Sakamoto consortium were simply too shameless!”
Mochizuki was also surprised by their shamelessness, but on second thought, it didn't seem strange. These capitalists were the best at distorting black and white. For example, what good fortune and whatnot. He said it clearly and logically, and what was even more ridiculous was that there were still people who believed it.
Conan also gritted his teeth in hatred! Damn it! You actually dare to slander Xiaolan like this. Looks like I have to go to your house to film an episode!
"Uncle! Don't agree to their request!" Conan was afraid that Kogoro would be confused for a moment, so he quickly gave him a heads-up." On the surface, as long as Sister Xiaolan changes her mind, the matter will end, and we can get the money. But if we do that, it would be equivalent to us silently agreeing to what they said. Sister Xiaolan would probably have to bear this stain for the rest of her life.”
