Chapter 84 [Chapter 084] Conan, willing to admit defeat

Several days have passed since the general hospital murder incident.

Of course Dr. Jiang Teng Shengli, the victim whose face was not even shown, is not dead, but the evidence that Mitsuo Shirai committed the crime is conclusive. Even if he is not dead, he will have to spend decades in prison.

Koizumi Anko also left. Before leaving, she specifically told Kogoro that he must be merciful if he encounters Kaito in the future.

She was really afraid that her innocent and kind-hearted Kaitou Kidd, who had never seen much of the world, would mistake Kogoro for Nakamori Ginzo to tease him, and end up falling into the hands of this weird uncle.

In a few days, it has now returned to the hot summer, and school is on summer vacation again, so Conan and Xiaolan are hiding at home and blowing on the air conditioner.

"By the way, I always feel like I've forgotten something, but now I finally remember it."

Kogoro, who was lying on his desk, listlessly watching the horse racing, suddenly slammed the table and stood up.

Xiaolan and Conan were startled, and turned to look at Kogoro: "Dad, you just watched the horse racing and forgot some important work, right?"

"NONONO..."

Kogoro shook his index finger: "Dear daughter, lovely Conan, do you two still remember the bet we made before?"

Conan's heart thumped and he suddenly felt something bad. Xiaolan, who had not yet reacted, asked in a daze: "A bet? What kind of bet? I never bet."

"No, Xiaolan, please recall carefully, before dad went out to serve as a consultant for Miss Okino Yoko's new drama, did we make a bet on what would happen to someone during the time we were apart?

Case, right?”

Xiaolan's face couldn't help but change slightly when she heard this, she remembered.

And it seems like he lost.

However, after Kogoro came back, he never mentioned this matter, and Xiaolan gradually forgot about it. Unexpectedly, Kogoro suddenly remembered it today.

"Is there? No? I don't remember. It must be no, right, Conan?"

Xiaolan is ready to cheat.

"Yeah, yeah, sister Xiaolan is right, I don't remember such a thing either."

Conan also acted stupid.

Seeing this idiot in disguise, Kogoro nodded, said nothing more, took out his cell phone and played a recording.

"Dad, you...you actually recorded it at that time?"

Xiaolan was so angry that she stuttered.

"It's better to be prepared in case someone refuses to admit their mistakes. Now it seems that I am quite far-sighted."

Kogoro said with a smile.

"Oh, I just remembered after listening to the recording. This is indeed the case, but there is no case here, and we have not lost."

Xiaolan decided to continue pretending to be stupid.

Kogoro took out another newspaper, opened it on the table, and pointed to the top photo: "The 1 billion bank robbery, is this not a case? Don't say it has nothing to do with you two, both of your photos are on the news

Now, how can you two argue?"

Xiaolan looked helplessly at the photo in the newspaper of herself holding Conan and being captured by the reporter. After humming for a long time, she thought of a reason: "We were just passing by to watch the fun, it doesn't count..."

"Xiaolan, you have to be honest in life."

"Then... who knows if there has been a case in your area, dad?"

"If my detective Kogoro Mouri solves a case, will it not be published in newspapers or on TV? Or you can contact the TV station and ask them if the case has happened before."

Kogoro's heart was not empty at all. During the entire filming of the TV series, except for someone being kicked out of the crew, there were no twists and turns.

As for the person who was kicked out of the crew and disappeared, no one cares about it. Even after he has been missing for so many days, no one calls the police. It's okay for him to be so popular.

"Maybe it's a small case that didn't alert the police at all. Anyway, I don't care."

Xiaolan wants to default on the debt.

"My good daughter, I didn't make a bet with you, why are you nervous?"

Kogoro had something to say.

As expected, father and daughter are of the same mind, and Xiaolan understood instantly: "Yes...Conan, I am willing to admit defeat. Even if Sister Xiaolan wants to protect you, there is nothing more to say."

"..."

Conan was dumbfounded.

what's the situation?

Why did Xiaolan sell herself out in the blink of an eye?

I said Xiaolan, will you stop thinking about it?

Wouldn't your conscience hurt if you do this?

Conan stared pitifully at Xiaolan with his big eyes that were magnified by her beauty, trying to get through by acting cute.

It's a pity that Kogoro is so hard-hearted this time, Xiaolan has no choice but to die as a Taoist friend.

"Conan, although you are still young, no matter how young you are, you are still a man. Only by knowing how to face everything bravely can you learn to grow."

Xiaolan smiled and stroked Conan's head: "This is all sister Xiaolan's good intentions, you understand, right? You must understand, right!"

Feeling the increasing strength of the palm on his head, and the question that was obviously an affirmative sentence, what else could Conan say, of course it contained tears, and he nodded in agreement, indicating that he felt Sister Xiaolan's good intentions.

"Um, Uncle Maori, I'm still a child, I can't fulfill my demands if I ask too much~~~"

Although there was no point in being cute towards Kogoro, Conan decided to give it a try.

What if it succeeds...

"It's okay, little Conan, uncle, my request is very simple."

Kogoro quickly ran into his bedroom, exchanged his popularity points for several sets of clothes, and took them out triumphantly: "Uncle, I have prepared them a long time ago. Just pick one piece and wear it for a month."

Looking at the clothes in Kogoro's hands, Xiaolan's face turned red, let alone Conan:

"...What are the looks between you two? Why do you look like you are looking at a crazy person?"

"Aren't you?"

Xiaolan said angrily: "Dad, I didn't expect you to fall to this level. Conan is still so young...how could you do it?"

"Hey, hey, sister Xiaolan, the key to the problem is not my age, right?"

Conan couldn't help but complain.

"You also know that Conan is just a kid, so he should look cute in these clothes, right?"

Kogoro was like the big bad wolf who tempted the little white rabbit: "Xiaolan, you also want to see what Conan would look like wearing these clothes, right?"

"Tch, sister Xiaolan is not as boring as you, right, sister Xiaolan...?"

Seeing Xiaolan slowly turning her head, her eyes seemed to be glowing, looking at him faintly, Conan instantly felt that his hair was standing on end.

"Sister Xiaolan, I remembered that I agreed to do my summer homework with Xiaoai. I'm leaving first..."

As soon as Conan stood up, Xiaolan grabbed him by the collar and lifted him up.

"Speaking of which, Conan wears this kind of clothes all year round, which is indeed too monotonous. So let's try all these clothes."

Xiaolan smiled and handed Conan to Kogoro: "By the way, I'm going to get the camera. This way I can wear something nice, so I can go out and buy the same type of clothes for Conan."

Seeing Xiaolan humming a tune and going to get the camera, Conan's face turned pale. He turned to look at Kogoro with difficulty: "Uncle, let's discuss it and change the request."

"It's no longer possible, kid. The initiative is no longer in my hands."

Kogoro stuffed the clothes into Conan's arms and kicked him into the bedroom: "Give you a minute to change into another set, otherwise I will do it myself."

Even though Conan was unwilling to do so, his arms couldn't twist his thighs. How could a person keep his head down under the eaves? He could only choose a set of clothes to put on, and waited until Kogoro and Xiaolan got anxious outside.

Chirp walked out.

"Wow, Conan, you are so handsome."

Xiaolan opened her eyes wide, picked up the camera and took several photos of Conan. Suddenly she frowned: "Why are you still wearing glasses? They don't match this outfit at all. Take them off quickly."

With that said, before Conan could react, Xiaolan reached out and took off Conan's big, old-fashioned black-rimmed glasses.
