Regarding the case of the Kazuo Sugi brothers, even if it is completely over. There were no murderers, no one seemed to have committed a crime, and the police station only made some records and let everyone go back.

Today, Xiaolan went to school as usual, and Conan naturally had to go to school obediently, leaving only Maori and Lu Yuan sitting idly in the office.

Maori picked up the button in his hand and looked at it boredly.

"So, we've actually met for a long time, right?"

"Yes, Mr. Maori." Lu Yuan responded.

Mori let out a long sigh, the kid in front of him had just told him a story about a series of murders, the murderer was a chaebol named Ichiro Sato, and the location was an island called [Sato Island].

On the island, himself, Xiaolan, Conan and Lu Yuan in front of him detected a continuous murder that lasted for three days and three nights, the process was extremely thrilling, and the story behind it was also embarrassing.

The only thing that's wrong is ...... Maori he had never been to that island at all.

Yes, in his memory, he had never been to [Sato Island], let alone Lu Yuan.

However, the button in front of him made him have to believe that all this was true.

"So, I'm just in a game, right?" Maori said again.

Lu Yuan nodded: "Your original model was taken from a comic, and the Ark Game just implanted you into the game and constructed some copies. ”

"Hehe, interesting, listening to you, I shouldn't just have one, but in every copy of Conan, there is a me."

"emmm......" Lu Yuan hesitated: "That's what it means." ”

"So which is the real me, or is it that [I] exist in a pluralistic way, and [I] is not an individual, but is divided into countless fragments, each of which has independent thoughts?"

"......" Lu Yuan did not answer this question because he did not know the answer.

Maori smiled: "Okay, let's go back to your plan, anyway, I don't want to get involved." ”

Lu Yuan's hand grasped the armrest of the chair: "But Mr. Maori, we need you, and your help can even save a world." ”

"Yes, but if something goes wrong with your plan, I may not be able to come back, or rather, when I come back, it may be many years later, so what about Xiaolan?"

"It won't be a problem, I have at least an 80% chance of making sure that you leave this quest for a few days, and Xiaolan they won't find out, as long as you just give a reason, such as ...... You go on a trip to another place or something. ”

"Okay, don't bother talking too much, after all, the person who gave you the button is not me, at least not me in this plane, and I don't want to risk saving a world that I can't touch at all, my ability is very limited, I'm just a detective, it's enough for me to stay by Xiaolan's side...... Saving the world, hehe, or leave it to someone else. ”

"But Mr. Maori ......!"

Before Lu Yuan could say anything, Mao Li waved his hand: "I'm tired, and I still have to watch Miss Yoko's recording at night, so I won't send you." ”

As he spoke, Maori closed his eyes, as if he was going to fall asleep on the couch.

Lu Yuan looked at the lazy detective in front of him helplessly, and for a while, he didn't seem to know which person was really Maoli.

It was the heroic man who did not hesitate to rush into the burning mansion in order to save the next person.

Or the [self-awakener] who said frightening words in the moonlight.

Or a decadent middle-aged man who spreads out on the sofa all day and drinks with a flushed face.

Everyone has a different side, and maybe this combination of these kinds is the real person.

"Click......"

A sound of opening the door suddenly sounded, Lu Yuan and Mao Li were stunned for a moment, and then looked in the direction of the door, only to see Xiaolan push open the door and walk in.

"Huh? Why did you come back so early? Mao muttered in his usual lazy tone.

"There were only two classes today, and I didn't go to school a few days ago, but I found out when I got to school today." Xiaolan said.

Lu Yuan looked at Xiaolan and knew that in front of her, there was no way to say anything to Mao Li, so he had to get up and bow: "Mr. Mao Li, I'll come to you again when I'm free." ”

"I've said everything I need to say, and it's the same when you come again." Maori hugged his shoulders.

"There's no way I'm going to give up." Lu Yuan said very firmly, then got up and left the office.

The door was closed, and Xiaolan asked a little inexplicably, "What are you two talking about?" ”

Maori pointed to the refrigerator and motioned for Xiaolan to bring him a can of beer: "It's nothing, that guy asked me to do me a favor." ”

Xiaolan's brows furrowed suddenly: "You refused?" ”

"yes."

When Xiaolan heard this, she thrust into her waist a little angrily: "How can you be like this, do you know how much Mr. Lu Yuan helped you to find you?" ”

Mr. Maori muttered, "He has a purpose. ”

"But he helped you, too! Didn't you just say when you were a kid that being a detective was about helping other people? Xiaolan's voice is a little louder!

"That's just rhetoric, otherwise why do you think I have to take money when I take the commission?" Maori had a good expression, and then he didn't want to pay attention to Xiaolan, turned on the TV directly, and lay down on the sofa.

"Look at it, you are so virtuous that my mother doesn't want to live with you!"

"......" Maori did not respond.

"When I was a child, I just listened to your rhetoric, thinking that you were the greatest father, and among my classmates, I was proud to say your profession!"

"Cut, you don't need to mention it now, just say my name of Maori Kogoro, who doesn't know me~"

"So what?" Xiaolan's tone changed: "Compared to the previous one who waited for the commission all day long, there was an old grandmother asking for help to find a cat, and you were happy to do your best......"

"I said, it's for the money." Maori muttered.

"Even then, I liked my father at that time."

In this way, the father and daughter quarreled with each other, and they did it almost every day, even when the door was open for the neighbors to hear.

At night, Lu Yuan sat in a ramen shop on the side of the street, with a bowl of ramen in front of him, but Lu Yuan didn't eat it, he just wanted a place to sit.

As for Maori, Lu Yuan definitely did not give up, even if he was forced to use violence against him in the end, he would not hesitate to do so.

Suddenly......

"A bowl of ramen." A voice sounded behind Lu Yuan.
