08. Go first
Cooking, beautiful oak.
It's a strange name, and no one knows what it means. Perhaps, only the proprietress knows.
"Welcome. Opening the door and entering, a middle-aged woman in a kimono shouted at Conan and the group.
"There are about six of us. The smell of oden came to his nose, and Kuriyama stepped forward and hesitated for a moment.
"Six?" the proprietress looked at the number of people present.
"There's another one who's probably still on the way, and I guess it won't be long before he comes. Kuriyama said with an embarrassed smile.
As for the concubine lawyer, she came to the shop of Masaki Kameda, Usami's ex-wife, without notifying the other party. Although she was confident that the teacher would come to this place, she really didn't know when she would come.
"Then may I be seated, may I have something to eat?" The proprietress didn't care about Kuriyama's embarrassment, but greeted her with a smile, after all, she was a guest.
"Five drinks, what do you need?" Kuriyama said, then looked at Xiaolan and the others.
"Well, I don't know what's delicious. Xiaolan pointed her left index finger to her chin and said distressedly.
"Auntie, I'll eat whatever is delicious. Xiaobai raised his hand and smiled.
"Hehe, I've got a lot of good food here. The proprietress covered her mouth and smiled.
"Then each of them has a good meal. Xiaobai said.
"Well, whatever, then. The proprietress looked at Kuriyama, who nodded.
"Okay, wait a minute. The proprietress hooked slightly, then picked up the tray and walked to the oden pot on the side, and then fished out their tender oden.
For example, eggs, potatoes, fish balls, cabbage, etc.
"......" Kuriyama looked at Ran, and Ran looked at Kuriyama.
Although they all know the destination to come here. However, the two of them don't know how to speak at the moment.
"Hey, why are you here?" It seemed that someone had come in, and the person who came seemed to know one of them, and the two of them looked out the door.
"Welcome, Mr. Mori. The proprietress smiled at the visitor.
"Dad, why are you here?" Xiaolan looked even more surprised.
"Hello Mr. Mori. Kuriyama said hello.
"Hello uncle. Little White Conan and the others also greeted each other.
"You little ghosts, why are you here so late?" Maori walked in, seemingly accustomed to handing the trench coat to the proprietress as usual, and then looked at the three little ghosts behind Xiaolan in surprise.
"Daddy, why are you here so late?" Xiaolan repeated the meaning of her words.
"I don't know who called me and said, 'Dad, I'm eating out with Conan, and you'll be in trouble for yourself at night.'" No, I'm here to solve it myself. Maori sat down and said.
"Mr. Maori, are they?" the proprietress looked at Maori.
"Oh, this is my daughter Moriran, this is Miss Kuriyama, the assistant of the insider, and as for the three, one is my nephew, one lives in my house, and the other is a friend's child. The doctor pointed at Xiaolan, then Kuriyam, and then at Xiaobai, as well as Conan and Xiaoai.
And when introducing Conan, the tone of "staying" is heavily emphasized.
"Dad, Conan's mother obviously gave living expenses. Lan reminded.
"Hmph, if you give the money, you can't see anyone anymore. What an irresponsible pair of parents. Maori said with his hands in his arms.
"Huh...... Uncle was right. Conan smiled awkwardly, but he still agreed with Maori's words.
Now, his parents are probably still traveling overseas? Who knows.
"Heh, Mr. Maori, is it still the same as usual?" the proprietress asked with a smile as she hung Maori's trench coat aside.
"Well, though, I don't need to take wine today. Maori nodded, then glanced at Xiaobai, and then turned back to the proprietress and continued.
"Okay. The proprietress was stunned, but she didn't ask the reason, but answered.
"By the way, what are you doing here?" Maori pulled the conversation back to square one.
"We're here to eat. Xiaobai said with a smile on the side.
"Oh, really...... The stuff here is really delicious. Maori nodded without suspicion.
"Listening to what the proprietress just said, it seems that Mr. Mori often comes to this shop?" Kuriyama caught a clue.
"Yes, Mr. Mori often takes care of my business. The proprietress put the oden in a bowl and brought it to the tray and placed it in front of the guests one by one.
"So, Mr. Mori, have you heard anything about the case that happened around here not long ago?" asked Kuriyama to Mori.
"Huh?" Maori was stunned, but it seemed that it was not only Maori who was stunned, but also the proprietress who was stunned. Of course, because Kuriyama and Xiaolan were looking at Maori, the two didn't notice, but Xiaobai, Conan and Xiaoai were very clear to see the proprietress holding the bowl hanging in the air because they heard Kuriyama's question.
"I've heard of this, and it seems that the victim was killed by a blow to the back of the head with an iron pipe. Maori thought for a moment and said.
"So......" Kuriyama was about to continue asking.
"Huh?" The door opened, and a woman in professional attire stood in front of it, stunned when she saw the people inside.
"Teacher's ......"
"Mom......
"Eng... Yingli ......"
It seems that it is not only the people who are surprised, Xiaolan and Kuriyama and others inside also seem to be very surprised.
"Why are you here?" Then, Maori and Fei Yingli looked at each other, and the two said in unison.
"I'm here to do something......
"I'm here for dinner......
The two said in unison.
"Hehe......" Looking at the synchronized speed of their speech, Xiaolan and his party laughed sneeringly.
"Xiaolan, why are you here?" Fei Yingli didn't look at Maori, but looked at Xiaolan and the group.
"I suggested it, because I guessed my aunt was going to be here. Xiaobai raised his hand and said.
"Oh?" Fei Yingli walked in, and then made a break in the empty seat next to Xiao Ai.
This one isn't huge. However, although it is not big, it does not seem small. Because, now it is announced that the seats are full.
"Conan, he asked about the case that the teacher had taken on the defense. I talked to them a little bit and they said they wanted to help. Kuriyama looked at Fei Yingli with apologetic eyes.
"That's ......" glanced at Kuriyama, then at Xiaobai.
"So, what are you asking about now?" Then, after thinking about it, he looked at Kuriyama again.
"I haven't asked yet, but it seems that Mr. Mori often comes here. Kuriyama said.
"Oh?" Squinting slightly, Fei Yingli shifted her gaze to Maori, who was eating oden......
