Chapter 322: Crying Mao Lilan
"Lan"
Hiki Eri had a complicated expression.
Now that she has completely recognized herself, it doesn't mean that she will become Luke's Star Fury.
She just accepted her dark side and thought that this was the more real Hiki Eri, and she was not as resistant to the relationship between her and Luke as usual.
And what happened to Xiaolan was done by the sick her.
It was her fault after all.
"Mom."
Xiaolan murmured, her face was haggard and her eyes were blank.
She still couldn't understand why her mother did that.
However, her kind nature prevented Xiaolan from feeling resentful towards her mother.
She loved her parents. Even though her father was drinking all day and her mother left home in anger, Xiaolan still tried her best to fill this broken home as much as possible.
Xiaolan always thought that her parents just had a quarrel, and they would get back together sooner or later.
Just like when she was a child, her father worked outside and her mother took care of her at home. She was busy cooking every day. Her cooking skills might not be very good, but her mother loved to cook and her father loved to eat.
But
Thinking of that night, thinking of her mother's guilty eyes when she pushed her into the room and closed the door
Xiaolan knew that she could not go back. The home she imagined had been closed by her mother herself.
"Mom, why? Why did you do that?"
Xiaolan bit her lip and clenched her hands under the table unconsciously.
"Lan, I"
Hiki Eri opened her mouth, but didn't know what to say.
Can she say that she did that at the beginning, in fact, for Xiaolan's good?
As long as Xiaolan can confirm the relationship with Luke, Hiiki Eri's bottom line will be limited there, and the relationship between the two will naturally stop there.
At that time, although it would be a bit sorry for Xiaolan's friend Yuanzi, the two had not confirmed the relationship in the first place, and Suzuki Shiro's attitude was also unclear. Who knows what he was thinking.
People in the Suzuki family have always had some problems with their brains.
Shiro Suzuki likes to build wonders, and he never gets angry when he builds one. It feels like the money of the Suzuki family came from the wind, and he spends money freely.
Jiro Suzuki is also a freak. In the first half of his life, he claimed to be a collector and often spent huge sums of money to buy gems, famous paintings, antiques and other messy things.
In the second half of his life, he inexplicably fell in love with Kaito Kidd and played hide-and-seek with Kidd.
Although he was defeated repeatedly, he was still interested. People who didn't know him thought he fell in love with Kaito Kidd.
Don't look at how Sonoko and Luke are affectionate now, but if Shiro Suzuki thinks that the two are not suitable one day, Luke will be sent abroad overnight.
It is rumored that Shiro Suzuki is gentle and sincere to people, and has the style of ancient wise leaders. This is indeed true, but as the ruler of one of the six major consortiums in Japan, no one can stop him from doing what he wants to do.
At least in Japan.
So, let Sonoko suffer. She is still so young. With the ability of the Suzuki Group, there is no husband she can't find.
Why bother hanging on an "ordinary" boy?
It is a poor person like her who needs Luke's help.
Hiki Eri was thinking a lot, but looking at her daughter whose face seemed to be full of "sorrow".
The quick-witted person who used to distinguish right from wrong in court was now like a heavy burden, and she couldn't say a word of quibbling.
No matter how nice it sounded, no matter how many reasons there were, she pushed her daughter out with her own hands.
This alone was enough to make Hiiki Eri, who had "awakened", regret it.
"Lan, I have divorced that guy, and you will follow me in the future."
She hesitated for a long time.
In the end, Hiiki Eri, who had returned to her nature, decided that it was better to suffer a short pain than a long one, and told her plan.
If it is said that during the period of separation between the two, Hiiki Eri, under the influence of Xiaolan, has always been the hesitant one.
But now, with Luke, Hibiki Eri has made up her mind.
The marriage is going to end, and her daughter must follow her. With her help, Xiaolan will soon be able to get out of the shadow of this time.
By then, after a few years, Xiaolan's thoughts will be more mature, and Hibiki Eri will be willing to support her daughter no matter what she wants to do.
However, these few years of vacancy should be regarded as the last dream of her mother.
Xiaolan.
A trace of scarlet flashed in Hibiki Eri's eyes. She was in a similar state to Xiaolan at this time. She needed a pillar in her heart to support the motivation to live.
However, hearing this, Xiaolan was silent.
Go with mother?
Can mother's words really be believed?
Xiaolan inexplicably had such an idea in her heart.
However, this idea only lasted for a moment and disappeared.
Because at this time, Hibiki Eri hugged her and hugged her daughter with her warm body, as if she wanted her daughter to feel her sincerity.
"I'm sorry, Xiaolan, I was wrong."
The warm embrace, sincere regret, and the last motherly love
made this "angel" in the worst state stop the signs of falling.
A drop of sparkling things appeared in Xiaolan's sunken eye sockets.
She twitched all over, hugged her mother, and sighed in repressed pain, as if it was drawn out from the depths of her soul, scattered in love, weaving a dark blue sorrow.
The lights in the cafe also became dim and light. Several guests noticed the movement here and glanced at it, but did not pay too much attention.
Under the dazzling neon lights, there was empty tasteless decadence and indifference.
However, it is worth noting that several little ghosts shrank back.
Pressing the call badge of the Junior Detective Team, the little ghost whispered:
"Hey, Conan-kun, did you see that Sister Xiaolan is crying while hugging a strange old lady."
"Margaret, the organization has entered a silent state, and the operation is temporarily suspended."
Luke sat on the sofa and glanced at his mobile phone.
In just three seconds, the text message was automatically destroyed.
Not only that, this time even the organization's forum could not be logged in, and the signal was directly cut off unilaterally, and there was no need to reply.
Gin made a much bigger noise this time than usual.
If there were no important people at the amusement park, I'm afraid the entire organization would have to be completely silent like that year, evacuating Neon directly and turning to overseas operations.
There have been several silent states in the organization's records.
The earliest one was in the early days of its creation.
For some unknown reason, the boss ordered the organization to move, abandoning most of Japan's industries and going abroad for development.
Vermouth was cultivated during that period, and therefore, the title of the Thousand-Faced Witch has long been registered with the FBI.
However, it may be that the FBI here is too useless, or it may be because Japan is rich in super geniuses. The FBI has been trying to capture the Thousand-Faced Witch for more than ten years, but it has not achieved much results.
It was not until Shuichi Akai came that the FBI almost forced Vermouth into a desperate situation.
It has to be said that Xiaorizi is the best at self-entertainment, just like the overconfident little stick next door.
And this time, the boss did not issue a retreat order.
It seems that the old man Karasuma Renya has not been playing dead for so many years.
The back-up plan should have been prepared long ago.
Gin's move was a bit big, but now after nearly half a century of subtle industrial transfer, the boss has completely established a foothold in Japan.
After a few months, they will find a few scapegoats, and the organization will still be the same organization, and Japan will still be the same Japan.
"Margaret, what happened?"
Curacao was a little curious.
After a night of fierce battle with Luke, she understood her situation.
In the eyes of the organization, she was already a dead person who was dead quite thoroughly.
This was reasonable, after all, there was no human in the world who could withstand the crushing of a super-large Ferris wheel without dying.
Even a super newcomer couldn't do it.
"The organization has entered a silent state, and it is estimated that the members of the organization will not go out for activities in a few months."
A few months in the Conan world, who knows how many years.
It could be a few days, or it could be a few years.
However, Curacao can breathe a sigh of relief.
Although it is not right to say that she is now faking her death, it should be said that she is really dead and escaped.
But it is almost impossible to walk in the sun and visit the amusement park with a few children like before when she lost her memory.
Her appearance is too special, with two-color eyes, silver hair, and mixed blood.
If Curacao dared to go out shopping, the organization would probably kill her as a traitor on the spot within two days.
Fortunately, the organization is now in a silent state.
As long as she is a little careful, the possibility of her being exposed is almost zero.
In other words, she can stay in Neon for a longer time.
Thinking of this, Curacao licked her lips excitedly, her beautiful eyes full of spring.
"Margaret."
Luke was replying to the news of Huiyuan Ai.
The cat-headed little loli may have been "furious" because of Vermouth, and now she is "grinning" at him.
I don't know what Vermouth did to her.
However, seeing that she is so energetic, it is estimated that it is just a little bit of Vermouth's bad taste.
At this time, a delicate little hand has already touched her quietly.
Luke felt something was wrong, and when he lowered his head, he met Curacao's eager eyes.
Well, let's not talk about the kitten with its fur standing up over there, but the cat demon over here is hungry again.
"Hiss"
"Oh, I remember it right, you really like this."
"Curaçao, how did you know?"
"I remember all the changes in your expression last night."
Curaçao has the ability to store memories, and a strong memory ability often allows Curacao to quickly discover the opponent's weaknesses.
Just like today, Curacao grasped Margaret's weakness.
"Uncle, isn't it ramen that I want?"
Conan was a little speechless.
He remembered that the lunch he wanted Uncle Maori to bring over should be ramen.
But why did it become a bento?
"Burp, kid, it's good to have something to eat, and Xiaolan just called me and said that children need to supplement nutrition during the recovery period and don't be picky about food!"
Uncle Maori blushed and burped.
Not because of shame, but because he was drunk.
Uncle Maori didn't go to the ramen restaurant to pack at all, he probably went to an izakaya.
It was the middle of the day, and I drank a lot before coming back.
Moreover, I looked at the "50% off" label on the lunch box, which I was too lazy to even tear off.
Conan's mouth twitched.
The discounted lunch boxes in supermarkets contain both meat and vegetables, which indeed meet the standards of nutritional supplements.
However, instead of eating this thing, it would be better to eat the bland standard meal of the hospital.
At least that one is still fresh.
Also, has Dad forgotten to pay Uncle Maori living expenses in the past few months?
Conan complained crazily in his heart.
"Kid, eat quickly and take a nap after eating. I have a checkup to do in the afternoon."
Uncle Maoli breathed a sigh of relief, and the smell of alcohol filled the ward.
Conan sighed inwardly, but on the surface he opened the plastic packaging honestly.
Put your hands together, say "I'm ready", pick up the chopsticks and eat.
There was no way, Xiaolan was busy these days and couldn't spare the time to take care of him.
So the responsibility of taking care of the patients fell on Uncle Maori.
But as for Uncle Maori’s character, I can only say that he understands everything.
He also has to take care of helping the Metropolitan Police handle terrorist attack cases. When he is busy, he doesn't even have time to ensure that he has time to eat.
It's quite difficult to find time to come here every day and give Conan exactly what he wants to eat.
I was able to have a drink at noon today because Officer Megure made the decision. In order to thank him for his off-site assistance, he specially granted Uncle Maori a half-day holiday.
Of course, part of the reason is that without the help of Conan, Mouri Kogoro's personal reasoning can only be described as "unconstrained".
The task force originally wanted to see if it could trigger the "Sleeping Kogoro" and use the famous detective's reasoning to find out the clues of the mastermind behind the terrorist attack.
The result is naturally self-evident.
Without Conan's blessing, Kogoro Mouri's reasoning can only be described as "unbridled".
The task force followed Kogoro Mouri to the strange corners many times. Not only did they not obtain any clues, but they wasted a lot of time, the task force gave up.
The Metropolitan Police Department is refusing Mouri Kogoro's help in a tactful way.
Despite this euphemism, Mr. Mori may not quite understand.
Of course, it is also possible that he is pretending to be confused.
An ordinary middle-aged detective like him got involved in a big event like a terrorist attack. If he wasn't careful, he might die under the arrangement of a senior police officer.
Mouri Kogoro can die, but he cannot harm his daughter.
As a retired detective, Mouri Kogoro may not be as good as high school detectives such as Kudo Shinichi and Hattori Heiji in terms of reasoning ability.
But they are much more stable than this group of young people who don’t know the heights of the world.
Alcohol can only paralyze his brain, but it cannot wear down Moori Kogoro's "sanity" as an adult.
Mouri Kogoro was drunk, leaning on the chair next to the hospital bed, seemingly asleep.
At this time, Conan also turned on his phone.
As Xiaolan's childhood sweetheart, Conan actually cares about Xiaolan.
So he asked a few children from the Youth Detective Team to help check on Xiaolan's situation.
Although he didn't really expect these three guys to be of any help, after all, they usually came to "add trouble".
However, when seeing the information for the first time.
Conan was stunned. (End of chapter)
