Conan: Life between Green Plum and Skyfall

Chapter 153 Invitation

On the other side, after separating from Maori, Conan also started questioning them one by one.

Although he didn't want to get involved in the feud between the couple, he had to admit that when it came to his family issues, Uncle Maori's performance was indeed far beyond that of ordinary people.

Moreover, Hime Eri is still Xiaolan's teacher, and since Maori has agreed to take him and Ai in, he has to help.

But perhaps it was due to the intimacy between husband and wife? Or was it something else? In the end, it was Kogoro Mouri who first found where Eri Kisaki had been and also found her ring.

"Humph, that forgetful woman."

Holding the ring in his palm, Uncle Maori casually put his hand into his pocket.

Seeing him appear to be indifferent but actually carefully guarding the ring, Conan rolled his eyes in his heart:

"As expected, tsundere men are not cute at all."

"Uncle, we..."

Just when Conan wanted to say something, two girls suddenly came up to him:

"Ah! You must be Mr. Maori Kogoro, right? We are your fans. I wonder if we can have the honor to chat with you for a while and ask for your autograph?"

"Ah? This... Haha, it's my honor to have such a beautiful lady as my admirer!"

Seeing two beautiful girls coming towards him with admiring looks, the seriousness on Mao Li's face instantly disappeared, replaced by his usual silly look.

"In that case, how about we go to the restaurant and talk, Takahata?"

Seeing that Mori agreed, Matsuzaki Harumi smiled and looked at Toda Takako beside her and asked.

"this......"

Gui Hezi looked around awkwardly after hearing this:

"How about we wait until Yayan and the others come back?"

"It's okay, it's okay. This is a good opportunity to see if my brother really cares about you~"

When she said the second half of the sentence, Harumi leaned close to Takawako and whispered.

"Well, you're right, Mr. Maori. I wonder if I could..."

"Haha! Since you two beauties have invited me, I certainly won't refuse. Ladies, please come in."

Maori said this with a gentlemanly "please" gesture, which only looked a little funny with his colorful beachwear.

Conan sighed helplessly as he watched Maori leave with the two women with a smile on his face. So, if Maori could be more serious like before, it would be great. If that were the case, Attorney Hime would have gone back long ago.

"Forget it. Whether Attorney Fei can return to the firm or not is none of my business. I've done everything I can. The rest depends on your luck, Uncle Maori."

Recalling how Maori couldn't stop smiling when facing the two female fans, Conan sighed in his heart.

"Mr. Conan, Mr. Maori usually..."

After witnessing Maori's facial expression, Chengshi's face showed a hint of helplessness. He still remembered that he had initially hoped that Maori could stop him and cleanse the island of sin, but he didn't expect...

"Ha, Uncle Maori, he is usually like this. He looks unreliable. He only becomes serious when it comes to his family."

Looking at Maori's back as he left, Conan smiled awkwardly. Uncle Maori, it's not that I don't speak well of you, it's just that your usual behavior is a bit too outrageous.

......

After following everyone back to the hotel, Maori immediately noticed that Hime Eri was sitting in the restaurant chatting with Xiaolan, so he couldn't help but speak a little louder when chatting with the two of them.

Conan, who was following behind him, looked at Maori's actions and felt helpless:

"Come on, where did you get this childish baby? You're an adult, okay? You're still using such childish tricks to attract your aunt's attention. No wonder you two can't reconcile!"

What kind of adult would deliberately use such means to anger his wife? Isn't Uncle Maori a little too childish?

Yingli on the side also obviously noticed this situation and looked at this side with a playful expression:

"Xiao Lan, you see, I was right, this old man must have gone to the beach to chat up other girls."

"Mom, don't be like this, Dad might just happen to..."

It was obvious that Xiaolan was also embarrassed.

Just now, she was trying to convince her mother that her father had changed to some extent, but the next moment, he came running over with two young girls. It seemed too much of a coincidence!

"It's okay, you don't have to explain for him. I already know exactly what kind of person he is! My life is such a failure!"

At this point, a hint of helplessness appeared on Yingli's face.

"No, Conan, and Dr. Cheng Shi just went with us. They should know what Dad did! Mom, let's go and ask!"

Xiaolan's smile was a little forced, and she pulled Hime Eri towards Maori.

"Ah, you're here. These two are friends I just met at the beach."

As he said this, Maori looked at Hime Eri provocatively and gave a brief introduction to the people present.

What happened next was almost the same as in the original book. When Kunio Kawazu and Masahiko Matsuzaki saw that their friend was missing, they also chased after him.

Of course, there are some differences. For example, when the scoundrel-looking Kawazu Kunio put his hand on Mori's shoulder, Maeda Satoshi mistakenly thought he was looking for trouble and came over to grab his arm.

Well, I can only say that he almost did something bad with good intentions.

Finally, after everything was explained, Maeda Satoshi also let go of Kawazu's arm with an embarrassed look on his face:

"Sorry, I thought you were looking for trouble just like that Jiang Yuan over there."

"Haha, He Jin, I told you that you have a criminal's face. Look, even this guy misunderstood me."

Matsuzaki teased a few times.

"You idiot, shut up! Who has a face like a criminal? How can I look like a bad guy? Can you tell me for sure? Do I look like a bad guy?"

Looking at He Jin's ferocious appearance, several people who knew that he was not actually a bad person muttered in their hearts:

'This isn't just a resemblance, this is a natural villain face!'

"Hey, talk to me! Don't be silent!"

Seeing that everyone fell silent, He Jin asked in a panic.

However, no matter who he looked at, that person would turn his head away silently, not daring to look him in the eye.

"Okay, okay, Mr. Maori, have you guys eaten yet? Let's go to the beach and have something to eat!"

Finally, Takako couldn't stand it anymore and stood up to interrupt. At the same time, she looked at Maeda Satoshi beside her:

"And this gentleman, we've known each other for a long time. Would you like to go get something to eat together?"
