Chapter 68: Has Ran Mao Li fallen in love with someone else?

Early this morning, Mao Lilan dressed up carefully and went out beautifully, with the reason being "to meet Shinichi".

Conan was confused. He was the real Kudo Shinichi, so who was the Kudo Shinichi that Mouri Ran went to meet?

Could it be that someone was pretending to be him to deceive Mao Lilan?

Or is it that Mao Lilan has fallen in love with someone else and is dressing up so beautifully for a date? !

Conan immediately became alert and followed Mouri Ran to the coffee shop, but was accidentally caught. He could only sit next to Mouri Ran and ask her who she wanted to see, but he couldn't get any answer.

The only answer I got was "important person".

All of his usual tricks - rolling around and acting cute - were ineffective today, and Conan could only sit aside with his hands in his pockets and sulk.

At this moment, he caught a glimpse of a familiar figure out of the corner of his eye, and when he looked up, it was Yuya!

Moreover, he was holding two drinks and walking towards this side with a smile on his face.

Conan suddenly looked like he was struck by lightning.

How could it be Yuya? How could it be Yuya? Conan was petrified, and then shattered immediately. He looked at Yuya with a sad look that said, "We were childhood friends, and you actually..." Without thinking, he said, "When did you guys..."

Mao Lilan's forehead made a well-shaped gesture, and she covered Conan's mouth with her hand: "Sorry, Yuya, I don't know what Conan ate wrong today."

Yuya looked at Conan with a strange look, smiled and said to Mao Li Ran, "It's okay, I'll beat him up later and he'll be obedient." Then he walked straight past without any intention of stopping.

Conan was stunned for a moment, and his eyes that were blinded by jealousy woke up. He turned around and found that Youya had sat down in another seat, and sitting opposite him was Miyano Shiho, who even smiled at him.

In Conan's eyes, this smile is extremely evil, cold, and terrifying...

Conan was frightened and immediately sat up straight and moved closer to Mouri Ran, fearing that Miyano Shiho would suddenly come over with a scalpel and cut something off his body.

At this time, Conan's brain, which had been left at home, finally came back a little bit - that's right, Yuya likes that cold and icy female nerd, how could he possibly come out to date Mouri Ran?

Conan breathed a sigh of relief after figuring this out, but then immediately became nervous again. If it wasn't Yuya he was seeing, then who could it be?

Besides Yuya, who else is smarter and more handsome than him?

···

Ran Mao Li didn't know what was going on in Conan's mind.

Of course, she didn't go out to meet a boy today, but to meet her biological mother, Kisaki Eri.

Ten years ago, Kogoro Mouri and Eri Kisaki had a fight, and Eri Kisaki ran away from home while Kogoro Mouri went to the bathroom. She never returned and the two began a long separation.

Although they say they are separating, in the eyes of those who understand, it is just dog food in disguise. Both of them are too proud to admit it and humble themselves to admit their mistakes.

Ran Mouri tried countless ways to make her parents reconcile, but Kogoro Mouri always lost his mind at critical moments. He would either say bad things about Eri Kisaki or get caught flirting with beautiful women, which resulted in them quarreling again even though there were many opportunities to reconcile.

But divorce is impossible, which can be seen from the fact that the legal name of Eri Kisaki is still Eri Mori, and the two have no intention of divorce. (In the "Stiff Tea Party", the nameplate of Eri Kisaki's hospital room says Eri Mori.)

Faced with Conan who refused to leave, Mao Lilan was a little embarrassed. The reason why she didn't want to tell Conan who the "important person" was was that she felt that the background of his parents' separation was too heavy for a 7-year-old child and would affect his childhood.

In fact, she completely forgot that Conan was also a child who was "abandoned" by his parents and lived in her house.

While looking around, I saw a long queue at the cake shop opposite.

With such a long line, the cakes sold must be delicious... Thinking of this, Mao Lilan came up with a good idea.

"Conan, I remember you like sweets very much, right?" Mao Lilan smiled and touched Conan's head, "I'll go buy a piece of cake across the street, you take it home and eat it, okay?"

After saying this, he stood up and walked out without waiting for Conan to answer, apparently very anxious for Conan to leave here.

Conan leaned against the window, silently watching Mao Lilan walk over to line up. He felt even more reluctant to leave, and he didn't eat sweets much anymore.

It was all because of that cold-blooded female geek. She said that tooth decay would affect her judgment of his physical condition. In order to change back as soon as possible, Conan could only suppress his craving for sweets.

Seeing that the line was very long and Ran Maoli would not be back in a short time, Conan immediately stood up and slipped to Yuya's side, and asked quietly: "Do you know who Xiaolan is going to meet today?"

Yuya tilted his head, squinted at Conan, and said indifferently: "I don't know, I don't know when Xiaolan and I..."

Conan's face darkened. Wasn't it just that he was a little too quick-witted just now? Was there any need to hold a grudge like this?

Miyano Shiho smiled and said to Conan: "Children can't eat too much sweet things!" She glanced at the drinks on Conan's table and added, "Drinks that are too sweet are not allowed either."

Conan's face turned even darker. These two people are simply following the same path as husband and wife. How hateful!

Knowing that he couldn't get anything out of him, Conan might not even know who Mouri Ran met today and it was just a coincidence. He could only return to his seat in frustration.

Yuya is unreliable, so he can only rely on himself. Conan began to stare at other guests and try to find out who Mao Lilan's "date" was.

Conan's position was right in the middle of the coffee shop. He turned around and kept observing other customers, especially the male ones.

Conan's sight first fell on a man with messy hair and stubble. After taking two glances, he looked away... It's not that he looks down on people, but he thinks that Mouri Ran's vision is not that bad, right?

At this time, a middle-aged woman with bund-up hair, sharp eyes and wearing OL clothes walked in and sat down opposite Conan.

Conan habitually looked over and found a super beautiful aunt. He always felt that he had seen this person somewhere, but he could not remember who she was.

The super beautiful aunt ordered a cup of coffee, then opened a document bag in her hand and started reading.

Conan noticed the words "Law Firm" written on the file bag, but the first few words were blocked and could not be seen. He thought that this aunt was a lawyer, and Mao Li Ran should not be here to see a lawyer. At the same time, he became even more confused. Where had he seen such a beautiful lawyer?

Just as Conan was thinking, he suddenly felt a chill on his back. The aunt opposite him looked at him with unhappy eyes. He immediately felt like he was being targeted by some natural enemy and quickly shrank back.

The horrible feeling disappeared.

"It's over, I almost got scolded..." Conan patted his chest with lingering fear, and suddenly froze, why did he feel like he was going to be scolded? And this familiar feeling of fear, he seemed to have felt it somewhere before...

Just as Conan was thinking, a handsome and somewhat showy playboy sitting behind him started making a phone call.

——Show off to friends that I caught an innocent and cute little girl.

Conan's face turned dark and he couldn't help but lean on the back of the sofa, looking at the Playboy's back with a dark look, the kind of resentful look that only murderers in animations would have before committing a crime.

After hearing the man say with a lewd look on his face, "Just say something nice and you'll be able to get me!", Conan couldn't help it any longer, and subconsciously reached for the kick-strengthening shoes on his feet, while his eyes scanned around for something to kick.

Of course, regardless of whether there is anything here for him to kick, Conan is unlikely to really kick that man, even though that man is obviously a playboy and is more likely to be the "important person" that Mouri Ran met today.

At this moment, Conan was surprised to see Yuya coming over again. He was about to speak, but Yuya ignored him and walked to the beautiful aunt.

"Aunt Eri, long time no see." Yuya greeted Kisaki Eri with a smile.

Conan's body suddenly froze, revealing a shocked expression, and his body instinctively shrank into the sofa.

Hibiki Eri looked up in confusion, and the smiling boy in front of her seemed familiar, but she couldn't remember who he was, so she asked, "Who are you..."

Yuya touched his head and said with a smile: "Aunt Eri doesn't remember me? I am Yuya, Kamiya Yuya."

Kamiya Yuya? Hibiki Eri recalled it and said with a smile: "So it's you. I haven't seen you for 10 years. You've grown up so big in the blink of an eye."

Yuya: "Auntie Eri is as beautiful as before. I recognized her right away."

After being praised like this, Kisaki Eri put away her sharpness and said in a good mood, "You are still as sweet-mouthed as before. You are nothing like the brat from the Kudo family who causes trouble every day."

Conan behind him shrank even smaller.

Yuya smiled, thinking that one-third of the trouble was actually caused by him, but in the end he just blamed it all on Kudo Shinichi at that time.

Kisaki Eri glanced in the direction where Yuya came from, with a smile in her eyes: "That, is that your girlfriend?"

Yuya blushed slightly, touched his nose and said, "Still working on it."

He glanced at the file bag in Hibiki Eri's hand and said, "Aunt Eri is waiting for someone, right? I won't disturb you then."

Hibiki couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth, and pushed up her glasses to hide her auntie smile: "Go over there quickly, the child has already looked this way eight times."

Yuya couldn't help but look back, and happened to see Miyano Shiho looking at him for the ninth time, and the other party immediately lowered his head.

Yuya smiled, said goodbye to Eri Kisaki and walked back. When he saw Conan trying to sneak out, he took two steps over and grabbed him by the back of the collar.

"Let me go, I remembered that I still have homework to do." Conan struggled to speak in a low voice, but he didn't dare to move too big for fear of attracting Kisaki Eri's attention.

When Youya called out "Aunt Eri" just now, Conan remembered why this beautiful aunt looked familiar, and why he felt a natural fear when she looked at him, as if he was going to be scolded in the next second.

——He was naughty when he was a child. He took Ran Mouri to play everywhere and often got himself dirty. In addition, he had to take the blame for Yuya. He had no idea how many times he was scolded by Eri Kisaki and how many bumps he got on his head.

Conan came today to see who Ran Mouri was dating. He originally thought it was that playboy, but after recognizing Eri Kisaki, he knew who the "important person" Ran Mouri was talking about.

In that case, there is no need for him to stay.

It’s definitely not because I’m afraid of Kisaki Eri.
