When the gin knocks on the door

Chapter 162 We Can Only Trust Her

After hanging up the phone, Kudo Shinichi hailed a taxi and headed for Mori Detective Agency.

He intends to scam Uncle Maori, and then ask him about the real situation of the matter.

If he asked them directly, he would definitely not say anything. With Uncle Maori's character, he would definitely refuse to admit that he was entangled.

Therefore, he can only use deception.

When Kudo Shinichi arrived at the Mori Detective Agency, Mori Kogoro was watching TV and drinking beer.

Kudo Shinichi pushed the door open, glanced at no one else, stood in front of him, and stared at him.

When Mori Kogoro looked puzzled, he heard him say: "Uncle, Xiaolan has become smaller, right! I know it all!"

"Pfft—cough cough cough" Mori Kogoro spewed out a mouthful of beer and almost choked to death.

It took him a while to feel alive, and he stood up and glared at Kudo Shinichi: "What are you talking about, kid?"

He looked condescendingly at Kudo Shinichi, with an angry look on his face, which made him feel extremely oppressed.

Kudo Shinichi calmly wiped away the beer stains that Mori Kogoro accidentally sprayed on his face, the raging flames were hidden in his calm expression.

"I already know about Fei Ganai, or about Xiao Lan."

Mori Kogoro looked at him for a while, saw the flames burning in his eyes, and knew that he would not give up if he didn't ask today.

He sat down with his back to Kudo Shinichi unhappily, obviously ignoring him.

He was really unhappy with Kudo Shinichi, if it wasn't for this brat, what would have happened to Xiaolan?
Although Xiaolan said that the matter had nothing to do with him, and that she forgot to take something and went back to get the things that caused the accident, but in his father's eyes, it was Kudo Xin who took Xiaolan out, but did not bring him back properly!

How could he not vent his anger?

He had been sensible for not taking his temper out on him.

Kudo Shinichi closed the door. Judging from Uncle Mori's attitude, he was completely sure of the authenticity of the matter.

The calmer it is, the more it shows that something is real.

Xiaolan has really become smaller!

He didn't care about Mori Kogoro's cold face, and asked seriously: "Uncle, what happened, how did Xiaolan become smaller?"

The information he found was limited, and all the situations were his speculations, and he had to ask the person concerned about the truth.

"Since you know, why are you asking?" Mori Kogoro said with a cold face, "Are you trying to kill Xiaolan?"

Can Xiaolan's shrinkage be said casually?
What if he has a client here?What if someone is in the toilet?What if someone installs a bug?
He didn't think about saying it directly, did he consider the seriousness of the matter?

Kudo Shinichi clasped his hands together, bent over to apologize, and kept his posture extremely low.

"Sorry, I just want to know the truth. Uncle, you know me, and I won't stop until I find out the truth, so please tell me!"

What can Kogoro Mori do?

Watching him investigate randomly and then attract the attention of that organization?
At that time, it will not only bring danger to himself, but also bring danger to those around him and all of them.

After Miyano Shiho's description, they were no longer as ignorant of the organization as they were at the beginning. They naturally knew how dangerous it was, and they would not just watch him take the risk.

"Since you already know, what else do you want to ask?"

"I'm just reasoning, no evidence."

"Heh, you came to lie to me without evidence?"

Kudo Shinichi scratched his head and laughed, "Because I know you won't tell my uncle if you ask him, and you will definitely say that Xiaolan went to the United States to study and find another reason to fool me."

Mori Kogoro wanted to punch this brat to death, but he tricked him again!

Angrily, he grabbed Kudou Shinichi by the back collar, trying to throw him out, but Kudou Shinichi grabbed the table stubbornly, and the table rubbed against the floor making a harsh sound.

The two were in a stalemate, and finally Kogoro Mori was the first to let go when he got tired.

Kudo Shinichi felt his body lighten and fell uncontrollably. He quickly adjusted his center of gravity so as not to fall.

Maoli Kogoro said viciously: "Listen to me, you boy! Xiaolan's matter is of great importance, not as simple as you think! Please keep it for me, and don't blame me for not reminding you when something happens to you!"

"what's going on?"

"Tell me how you checked it first." Mori Kogoro folded his arms around his chest, wanting to see what else he missed and didn't deal with.

"After I left from you, I went to Aunt Concubine, and there I saw a girl who was very similar to Xiaolan when I was a child. I asked Aunt Concubine about Xiaolan, and Aunt Concubine told me without asking a few words. You kicked me out too..."

Mori Kogoro curled his lips in displeasure, "You kid has really sharp eyes. It's been so long and I still remember Xiaolan's appearance when he was a child."

Kudo Shinichi laughed, of course he couldn't say that he liked Xiaolan when he was in kindergarten.

He was afraid of being beaten to death by Mori Kogoro.

"I guess it should be something happened after we parted, and then I went to Dolomita Paradise, and learned from the security that Xiaolan had gone back, and then found the security who found Xiaolan..."

"They didn't suspect anything, did they?" Mori Kogoro's eyes were dangerous.

He managed to find the two security guards and told them not to speak out, but the kid asked him right away. Doesn't that mean that his remedial measures were in vain?
"No, I just said that I came to investigate the case. I didn't say what to investigate specifically. I just asked if they found anything unusual that night."

"How did you know that what happened to Xiaolan that night?"

"Inference, plus intuition."

Xiaolan didn't see anyone all day on Sunday. Either she had an accident on Saturday night or it was the weekend. His intuition told him that the former was more likely.

He has said it so clearly, there is no need for Mori Kogoro to hide it from him.

"Xiao Lan has indeed become smaller. She was fed poison by two men in black. The properties of the drug were supposed to make people die naturally. As a result, Xiao Lan unexpectedly became smaller, so she escaped the catastrophe .”

Seeing Kudo Shinichi sinking into deep thought, Mori Kogoro continued:
"The reason why I said that Xiaolan went to the United States to study is just because I don't want you friends to worry. It goes without saying that it is not a simple organization that can develop this drug. Once they know that Xiaolan is still alive, the consequences will be disastrous."

"Can't you call the police?" Kudo Shinichi asked naively.

"What do you think the consequences of calling the police will be?" Mori Kogoro looked at him speechlessly.

Can the police issue a warrant for them without evidence?How many people are there in that organization, and how much is known to them?How many can the police catch?
Should the police catch those people first and destroy the organization, or should the organization arrest Xiaolan first for research?

As a former criminal policeman, Kogoro Moori knows these ways too well.

It is impossible for the police to protect 24 hours a day, there are always omissions, and once Xiaolan is exposed, there are too many ways for the organization to catch Xiaolan.

Never think that terrorist organizations can have any humanity, the evil of human nature is absolutely beyond imagination.

Once they resort to unscrupulous means, such as explosions, sniper attacks, poison gas, and hostage threats, all such terrorist methods can be used.

After all, an experimental subject that has degenerated into infancy but has no effect on the body is really too precious!
Once this secret is discovered, maybe a drug for eternal youth can be found, and this drug can make many people crazy and unscrupulous.
Mori Kogoro didn't dare to think about these things, and the more he thought about it, the more frightened he became.
At the beginning, they only knew that the matter was not simple, and they didn't think about it. It wasn't until Miyano Shiho appeared and revealed the fact that the organization had been researching, that they clearly realized how dangerous the matter was.
He and Fei Yingli actually considered taking Xiaolan to leave Japan, but Miyano Shiho said that this organization does not only exist in Japan, but has distribution in many countries, and the significance of going to other countries is not great.

They still know the situation in Japan. They still have contacts in the local area, and the police still have people who can help, but they obviously don't have this condition when they go to other countries. They don't know when they are killed unknowingly. .

The real environment of the world is not very peaceful, and various dead worlds emerge in endlessly every day.

Otherwise, how could such a powerful detective be so famous?
The second is that although they forged an identity for Xiaolan, they did not have a regular passport and could not go abroad.

In short, for various reasons, they chose to stay in Japan.

"Why didn't you tell me about such a big thing?"

"What's the use of telling you?" Mori Kogoro asked back.

Kudo Shinichi remained silent.

He thought he was a celebrity in Japan now, had solved many cases, and was already very powerful, but in fact he couldn't do anything.

"We already have a solution to Xiaolan's matter. Now she just needs to be a good child and not let that organization find out."

"But why do you think that the organization won't find out that Xiao Lan is not dead?"

Since it is a terrible organization, someone will definitely be arranged to confirm whether the person who took the drug died or not.

It would be okay to hold a funeral for Xiaolan, but now it is said that she has gone to the United States, and it only needs to send someone to investigate the problem there.

It's too naive to place hope on that organization not being able to find out, it's impossible for uncles and aunts not to think of this...

"You don't have to worry about this, Xiao Lan has already been confirmed dead in the organization's records."

Kudo Shinichi widened his eyes in shock, how did he know this?
Could it be that uncle has found out about the people in that organization and obtained relevant information?
It's true that people don't care about appearances.

In the past, I thought that he was just a decadent uncle who could only accept commissions like finding cats and dogs for cheating, but I didn't expect that uncle to be so powerful!
For Kudo Shinichi's surprised look, Mori Kogoro was very helpful, and he even liked him a little bit.

This kid is too good, and he is a detective just like him. One is famous and the other is unknown. In comparison, his father is very embarrassing in front of Xiaolan.

This is also one of the reasons why he is unhappy to see him.

"What about the antidote?" Since it is poison, there must be an antidote, right?
"The antidote is already being researched, so you don't need to worry about it."

Kudo Shinichi frowned, "Are you entrusting the research institute to do the research? Wouldn't this expose the fact that Xiaolan has become smaller? And even if the antidote is researched, Xiaolan can't take it, right?"

"Xiaolan's friends are doing the drug research, so you don't need to worry about it."

"Xiaolan's friend?" Kudo Shinichi was even more puzzled.

Why didn't he know that there were such talents among Xiaolan's friends?
Wait, it couldn't be the Miyano Shiho she kept talking about, right?
"Shiho Miyano?"

Mori Kogoro glanced at him in surprise, unexpectedly he guessed it so quickly.

But since he guessed it, he has nothing to deny.

"is her."

"It hasn't appeared for so many years, why did it appear at this time?" Kudo Shinichi felt that there was something wrong inside.

It's not that he thinks badly about people, but it's about Xiaolan's safety, so he must be cautious.

"It was she who confirmed Xiaolan's death." Kogoro Mouri threw a shocking bomb.

"What? Doesn't that mean she is from that organization?!"

"That's right." Mori Kogoro said calmly.

Although he was surprised when he knew about it, he even wondered if there was any conspiracy in it.

Because this is really too coincidental.

Xiaolan had an accident, and she happened to be researching the medicine she took. She also came to find her and solved the problem that Xiaolan was not dead, and promised to research the antidote.

It was as if something was needed, and it went so smoothly and unbelievably.

He must have doubted this kind of success, wondering if she had ulterior motives.But Xiaolan trusts the other party very much, and they have no good solution at present, and they don't know any talents in this field, so they can only pin their hopes on her.

But it is definitely impossible to say that you can rest assured.

"What we know about the organization so far is all from her mouth."

"Then you're not afraid that she will lie, do you have ulterior motives?" Kudo Shin's affection for Miyano Shiho was not high at all, even negative.

Therefore, when Mori Kogoro said this, he didn't have the slightest trust, only doubts about Miyano Shiho.

"But what can I do?"

Mori Kogoro sighed, looking at the dark sky outside the window, his back seemed to be bent.

He is just a confused detective. Although Eri said that he is very good at fighting lawsuits, that's all.

They didn't know any experts in this field who could solve this problem, and they couldn't provide Xiaolan with an absolutely safe environment.

He worked hard to investigate, but he couldn't even touch the corner of the organization, and he was afraid of being noticed and bringing danger.

If it wasn't for Miyano Shiho, they wouldn't even know what kind of organization that organization was, or what kind of medicine Xiaolan was taking.

How about getting Xiaolan back to her original state?
After all, they are just ordinary people.

Why not choose to trust Miyano Shiho and Xiao Ran?

They also have no other choice.
