Chapter 675 Mao Lilan Knows Everything
"A-affair partner?" Mouri Kogoro opened his mouth so wide that he could fit an egg in it.
Karitani Banko quickly motioned for him to keep his voice down.
Mouri Kogoro put his index finger in front of his lips and kept "shushing" at Mouri Ran Nobushige and the others.
"Tch." Conan complained in a low voice, "You are the one who really deserves to be booed."
Nobuhiro looked at him: "Who said loudly this morning that he discovered..."
"Brother Asano!"
Mao Lilan was shocked by the client's message and was a little confused: "The person you are having an affair with wants to send you a message."
"Yes." Karitani Tamoko admitted frankly, she said worriedly, "If the three people in our family find out, I will definitely be kicked out of the house. So I would like to ask you to help me find my mobile phone."
Mouri Kogoro smiled and said: "Then why don't you contact the other party quickly and ask him not to send you emails? I can lend you my mobile phone."
"No. Because..." Karitani Banko sighed, "Actually, he has been contacting me unilaterally all this time. I never received a reply when I emailed him. And when he called me, his number was not displayed. "
"You still don't know his phone number?! He is such a macho man."
"There are such people!" Mao Lilan said angrily, "They are selfish and only care about themselves, without considering the feelings of the people around them. Are you right, Conan?"
Conan flinched: "Yes, really?"
Nobushige looked at the two quarrelsome young lovers and reluctantly changed the topic to the commission: "Then when and where did you lose your cell phone? Do you remember?"
"I'm not sure about the specific time and place, but it should have been the night before yesterday, at this home." Karitani Tomoko said worriedly, "And when I call my mobile phone, there is always someone on the other side who answers, but I don't say a word. Hang up soon."
"Then how did you make sure your phone was at home?"
"Because when the call is connected, I can hear the sound of the bamboo flute from the receiver, just like now. This is my father-in-law practicing the bamboo flute."
There are waves of bamboo flute sounds floating in the air, but this music does not make people intoxicated, but makes people want to close their ears. Karitani Banko's father-in-law's ability is comparable to that of Edogawa Conan.
"Then why don't you ask everyone at home?" Mouri Kogoro asked again.
"I've asked everyone, but everyone said they didn't see it. My husband originally suspected me of cheating, and I didn't dare to search for it in a big way, so I invited you over." Karitani Tamoko lowered his voice, "I will take you with me later. I visited the family members separately, and Mr. Mori said he was my classmate. You must not let them know that I hired a detective. Of course, the commission fee will still be paid to you. "
In a sense, detectives are originally a shady profession, so they just keep secrets for their clients. This kind of thing Mouri Kogoro does very smoothly.
When he introduced himself, he almost said that he was Kogoro Mori, but fortunately he changed his name in time: "I am Goro Mori, a classmate of Banko's junior high school. This is my cousin, this is my daughter, and the one who lives in my house temporarily. A relative’s child.”
Nobuhiro was helpless: Uncle, you don’t need to introduce it so clearly, right? ?
Karitani Banko smiled and said: "Mr. Mori is about to build a house recently. He thinks the house designed by his father is very exquisite, so he wants to come and take a look for inspiration."
"So that's it!" Karitani Oce, the father-in-law of Karitani Banko, smiled heartily and agreed, "Okay, no problem, just take your time and watch."
Having said that, Karitani Dace also raised his bamboo flute: "Now, please listen to me play a piece of music!"
"Ah? No, no, no, no, no, no!" Mouri Kogoro begged repeatedly.
Come on, isn't it enough to listen to that tone-deaf Conan singing all day long? He, Mouri Kogoro, if he puts down his words today, he will never let his ears suffer damage in the future!
No one can do it, neither Conan nor this guy called Karitani Dace!
"Ran!" Mouri Kogoro quickly hinted at his daughter.
Mao Lilan put his hands behind his back and dialed Karitani Banko's phone number.
At almost the same time, Karitani Daisei, who was sitting opposite them, suddenly changed his expression.
The atmosphere in the room suddenly became tense.
"Haha." Karitani Dace stood up holding his stomach, "Really, I suddenly felt a little upset. I'm sorry, but I have to excuse you now."
He quickly slipped out of the Japanese room and closed the door.
A bunch of people were left looking at each other.
Karitani Banko was stunned: "Could it be my father-in-law who took my mobile phone?"
After all, it was too coincidental just now.
"Probably not." Mao Lilan replied, "Because the call was connected just now, but just like Ms. Banzi said, it was hung up soon."
Mouri Kogoro secretly opened the door and looked at Karitani Osaku who was walking towards the bathroom: "But your father-in-law doesn't look very scary. He seems to be easy to get along with."
Karitani Banko lowered his head: "Maybe other things, but cheating has always been his fault. Just like twelve years ago..."
"Twelve years ago?" Mouri Kogoro turned around, and he smelled the smell of the incident.
However, Karitani Tamoko twitched his lips and said perfunctorily: "It's nothing, it's just trivial matters at home. Then I will take you to my brother's room to search."
…
"Huh? High school classmate??" Kariya Shiying said disdainfully, "Could he be your first love?"
Karitani Banko's face suddenly turned dark: "What nonsense! Mr. Mori just wants to see the layout of his home."
"Tch, what's so interesting about this?" Shigei Karitani said while typing on the keyboard, "Just don't disturb my writing."
"Eh?" Mao Lilan said in surprise, "Are you writing a novel?"
Karitani Shigei nodded when he heard this, then took out a book and handed it to her: "Although I may be unknown now, soon my name will be resounding throughout Japan, reaching the point where no one knows it. .”
Mao Lilan took it and looked at it, and immediately laughed: "You are Teacher Shiying Karitani! I heard that Karitani didn't react before! So your work will be made into a TV series? It's so unexpected. I didn't expect you. So young."
Nobushige opened the romance novel and glanced at it a few times. He was very sure that he had never read this book and had never heard of Karitani Shiei. Speaking of how Mao Lilan seems to know everyone, the same Shii Nobuchi from before was also recognized by Mao Lilan at a glance.
"But...why do you think Karitani Shihei is older?" Nobushige asked in a low voice.
"Because the era described in his book is very similar to that of more than ten years ago, I thought he was an older person and knew more about that era."
