Chapter 2 Brother Is a Suspect

The sky outside the window was gloomy, with moderate rain falling non-stop.

"Ah, Dad! Why did you mess up the table again?!" Mao Lilan frowned tightly as soon as she entered the office, "I told you to drink less wine, and you only drink so much at noon!"

While throwing all the rubbish into the trash can, she babbled on Kogoro Mori: "Aren't there any arrangements for the afternoon? Didn't you say yesterday that someone would come to visit?"

"Huh? Someone..." Mori Kogoro was drunk, and it took him a long time to think of anything, "Oh, yes, there is a kid coming. It seems to be..."

"Bang bang bang."

The knock on the door sounded in due time.

"Ah, that's right! I have an appointment with someone today, and he wants to rent a shop on the first floor." Kogoro Mori rolled over, got up quickly, and even arranged his tie and clothes, pretending to be serious .

"Really, since there is an appointment at noon in the afternoon, don't drink any more!" Mao Lilan muttered, and opened the door of the office, "Hello."

"Hello." A soft male voice sounded like the spring breeze in April, "I'm Nobushige Asano. I made an appointment with Mr. Mori before."

It was a tall and handsome figure, not very old, probably in his twenties. He was wearing an ordinary shirt and trousers, but it inexplicably added a clean temperament to him. Short black hair hangs down obediently, and a pair of clear and bright eyes on healthy wheat-colored skin are very attractive.

He was holding a pure black umbrella in his hand, and raindrops were still dripping from the umbrella.

"Oh, you are Nobushige Asano. Please sit down." Mouri Kogoro greeted, pointing to the opposite sofa.

Asano Nobushige sat on the sofa and nodded to Mori Ran who poured him tea.

"That's it. As long as you are willing to rent the store to me, the rent is not a problem."

"Ahaha, it's comfortable to talk to a straightforward person like you!" Mori Kogoro seemed to see dozens of beers and stacks of sexy photos waving to him, "But, you know, I'm a detective Mori Kogoro, I must check the business content of the store operated under the office."

"Of course." Nobushige Asano smiled, "I plan to use it to open a music classroom. If you are interested in learning music, please feel free to contact me."

"Music classroom, that's very good." Mori Kogoro showed a satisfied look, "When will you rent it and how long will you rent it for?"

"Is it okay to start from tomorrow?" Nobushige Asano thought about it again, and said, "I plan to rent for a year temporarily, but don't worry, as long as the business conditions are suitable, I will rent for a long time."

It's just that it's uncertain whether this year will pass.

After negotiating the price, Nobushige Asano took out two contracts from the bag and placed them on the table. After all, Kogoro Mori is the husband of Attorney Fei Yingli. Although there are many conflicts between the husband and wife, they still know the basic legal knowledge. He took a quick look and knew that Xin Fan had no intention of cheating him, and the contract was drafted very conscientiously.

"That's it." After paying one year's rent and one month's deposit, Xinfan got the key to the shop downstairs, "I will hire someone to clean and redecorate from tomorrow. I will leave it to you, Mr. Maori. "He got up and bowed respectfully to Mori Kogoro.

The uncle laughed even more happily: "Haha, it's okay, we will be neighbors in the future! Then let Xiaolan take you down."

"Do you want to stay for dinner?" Mao Lilan asked.

Xin Fan smiled and shook his head: "I live near here, just go back and eat."

"You don't need to keep him!" Mori Kogoro opened another can of beer and said casually, "For a young man as good as Asano, there must be a girlfriend or wife waiting for him to come home."

"Ah, is that so?" Mao Lilan was a little embarrassed, a blush appeared on her cheeks, "But this is really very happy, Mr. Asano, please cherish it."

...

Xin Fan was a little stunned when he heard this. Thinking of his own house that was so cold that there was almost no breath of life, he suddenly envied the father and daughter in front of him. Although there are cases and dangers encountered every day because of taking in the Shinigami elementary school students, but to be honest, the atmosphere of Mori's house has always been great.

"Then I'll leave first, Mao Lisang." Xin Fan nodded to Mao Lilan, and opened the door of the office.

"Sister Xiaolan, I'm back!"

Outside the door, no, to be precise, it should be under the door, there is a six or seven-year-old boy standing there with his head up. He was wearing a blue suit, white shirt, gray shorts, and a red bow tie, which was inexplicably cute.

Xinfan and Conan's eyes met, and he walked downstairs without changing his expression. Conan, on the other hand, frowned deeply after a brief pause.

etc! ! That person seems to be...! ! !

"Sister Xiaolan! Stop him!!" Conan shouted loudly.

Out of love and trust for Conan, Mao Lilan hardly hesitated after hearing such a request, she jumped down the steps and stopped in front of Xinfan.

Xinfan stopped, raised his eyebrows and said, "Is there any question, Maurice?"

"Uh, that..." Although Mao Lilan stopped the opponent directly without thinking, Mao Lilan herself was very confused. Facing Xin Fan's problem now, she couldn't help being a little embarrassed.

Fortunately, Conan rushed over quickly, and he asked calmly and confidently, "Today at 12:40 noon, you are at the Southeast Asian restaurant on the second floor of Mihua Hotel, right?"

Xin Fan showed a proper look of surprise when he heard the words: "Little brother, your memory is very good. It's amazing that you can recognize me after only seeing me once."

"Eh? Have you met today?" Mao Lilan asked in surprise.

But Conan shook his head: "No, this gentleman probably hasn't seen me. Because I saw him in the surveillance camera of Mihua Hotel——Mr. Nobushige Asano as a criminal suspect!"

"Ah? A criminal suspect??" Mao Lilan silently moved half a step back, perhaps without noticing it. After all, in her past experience, the suspects were all dark and cruel guys, too dangerous.

Looking up at Xinfan again, he found that the young man who was identified as the criminal suspect looked as usual, and there was even a little smile between his eyebrows and eyes. There was absolutely no tension or anything else that should have been there.

In fact, Xinfan was not really worried. He squatted down and looked at Conan's child: "I did have dinner with my friends at Mihua Restaurant at noon, but the criminal suspect... what's going on here?"

Conan carefully stared at the changes in his eyes, trying to see something: "Don't you know, brother? Not long after you left, Mr. Yoshida was killed with a dagger. The person who ate with Mr. Yoshida in the box at noon, Including you, they are all suspects."
