Chapter 276: The Game at the Racecourse

Early one morning.

"Yuda, the prisoner who was arrested because of Detective Mori Kogoro's reasoning, escaped from prison last night......" Xiaolan read the newspaper delivered in the morning, with a hint of sadness on her face.

"What can I do, Dad."

"What to do?" Mori Kogoro, who was studying today's horse race, said in a daze, with dark circles on his eyes, as if he hadn't woken up yet.

Xiaolan didn't seem to listen to what she said just now.

"Dad, what's the matter with you, why did you come back so late with Xia Ruo last night? There was still a smell of alcohol on his body," Xiaolan asked suspiciously.

"Haha, last night, I met a few fans who adored me, and they were in super good shape, so I went to the bar with Xia Ruo to find them, hahaha, I came back late."

Speaking of which, Mori Kogoro seemed to think of those beautiful girls last night again, and smiled stupidly.

Xia Ruo nodded on the side, and subconsciously agreed, "Well, it's true that you're in good shape and beautiful." ”

Xiaolan clenched her fists on the side, she was suppressing her anger, "So you go to the bar with those girls and drink until two or three o'clock in the middle of the night and don't come back." ”

"Ugh."

Xia Ruo and Maori Kogoro pretended not to hear Xiaolan's words, and began to read the newspaper and play with the mobile phone.

"Hehe, worthy of you," Conan thought to himself.

"By the way, Xiaolan, what did you just say," Kogoro Maori pulled the topic back, not wanting his daughter to pay attention to what had just happened.

"I was just saying, Dad, the prisoner you captured Yuda has escaped from prison!" Xiaolan was a little helpless, but she said it again.

"Oh, it's a prison escape, it's good to have the police deal with it," Mori Kogoro said indifferently.

"Dad, that prisoner was caught by you, what if he escapes from prison and comes out to take revenge on you," Xiaolan said worriedly.

Maori Kogoro waved his hand relaxedly, "There's nothing to worry about, Xiaolan." ”

As a result, Xiaolan stood up angrily, "You don't care what you do, but it's you who is the target of revenge, Dad." ”

Conan thought a little embarrassed, "If I really want to take revenge, it seems that I sent him in, but Uncle Maori helped me take the blame." ”

"Yuda?"

Xia Ruo thought about it for a long time, but he didn't come up with it, who was that Tang Tian, maybe there were too many murderers sent in by Conan.

It's horrible.

"Don't worry, Xiaolan, he managed to escape with great difficulty, so this time he won't risk being arrested to stay in Tokyo, and now he has long fled abroad," Mori Kogoro didn't feel the crisis at all.

"Alright, I'm going to work on the case."

Xiaolan really can't stand her father, obviously it's so dangerous, it seems that she has to protect him alone, "I'm going to go with me too." ”

"What are you going to do?" Mori Kogoro asked helplessly.

"Of course it's to protect your father, it's definitely dangerous when you handle the case, I want to be my father's bodyguard," Xiao Lan said with a few punches into the air.

"Handling this kind of thing, where are girls going?"

Hearing that Xiaolan was also going, Maori Kogoro frowned, and at the same time, Maori Kogoro squinted and glanced at Xia Ruo, as if he had made a look.

However, in the face of Maori Kogoro's eyes, Xia Ruo pretended not to see.

What Xiaolan wants to do is generally unstoppable.

In the end, Maori Kogoro had no choice but to let Xiaolan and Conan follow him, and then came to the betting racecourse.

"Dad, the case you are talking about is to come to the racecourse to bet on horses," Xiaolan looked at where her father came, and the tic-tac-toe appeared on her forehead, "Usually, you and Xia Ruo said that you went out to handle the case, that is, you came here!" ”

"Hehe, you just know," Conan thought to himself, he had already guessed what Mori Kogoro was going to do today through the morning betting newspaper.

……

"Xia Ruo, look, I bought the No. 8 horse, and the No. 8 horse is absolutely fine!" Maori Kogoro shouted at Natsuruo with a horse gambling newspaper.

"Mr. Maori, I don't think the No. 8 horse is good, or the No. 4 horse is more imposing, I bought the No. 4 horse," Xia Ruo carefully observed for a long time, and placed a heavy bet to buy the No. 4 horse.

Conan: "......"

Although Xiaolan was speechless, she quickly accepted the reality, and she was also clear about her father's virtues, so Xiaolan looked around vigilantly, paying attention to whether anyone wanted to assassinate her father.

It didn't take long for the horse races to begin, and Mori Kogoro was obviously unlucky, and he looked sadly as he watched the No. 8 horse he had bought dangling behind him as if he were in a fake race, and was far behind by the other horses.

And the one who took the lead was the No. 4 horse that Xia Ruo bought, like a drug, far ahead.

β€œnice!”

Xia Ruo looked at this scene and waved his fist excitedly.

"Close!"

Seeing Xia Ruo and Uncle Maori playing so excitedly, Conan was a little speechless, as a child, he could only go to the convenience store to help buy things.

Sometimes, Conan even thinks that Xia Ruo is quite similar to Maori Kogoro, and the two have a lot of fun.

Maybe so, it won't be so tiring.

"Huh?" On the way to buy something, Conan spotted a very suspicious person, wearing a hat, who came to the racetrack not to pay attention to the horses, but to find someone.

But in the moment of Conan's hesitation, the man disappeared.

"Does that person say ......?"

……

Maori Kogoro, who had lost a fine loss, walked out of the racecourse dejectedly, on the contrary, Xia Ruo's face was ruddy, and the smile on his face couldn't be hidden.

"I'm gone, Lady Luck isn't with me," Mori Kogoro said with a sigh.

Xia Ruo tried to comfort Maori Kogoro, "Mr. Maori, don't be so low, next time if it succeeds, you look at me, just try it casually and make a small profit." ”

"You kid, you're so lucky, it's really unpleasant," Maori Kogoro looked at Xia Ruo, his tone a little sour.

"It's not about luck, it's about vision."

Just when Maori Kogoro, Xia Ruo and the others walked to the overpass, from the top of the overpass, a rickety and beautiful woman walked down, the woman was dressed in purple, and she looked like she was in a bad mental state, as if she was going to fall down at any time.

Noticing this scene, Maori Kogoro's eyes glowed faintly, "Could it be that my lady luck is back?" ”

Sure enough, the girl swayed, and when she walked in front of Mori Kogoro, she finally didn't step on her feet, and fell down in the expectant eyes of Mori Kogoro.
