"um, yes!"
Yuko Ikezawa nodded gently. "Do you have a better place to go? If so, I can change locations."
"I'd like to borrow some clothes; I washed all the clothes I wore yesterday."
Yoko Okino looked at Yuko Ikezawa and asked, her eyes filled with a pleading look.
It's more accurate to say that it was thrown away rather than washed off, since it was at the crime scene and stained with a lot of blood.
She threw it away as soon as she got back and changed into the pajamas that Ikezawa Yuko had given her.
She could have asked her agent to buy it, but ever since she met Chen Mo,
She is very averse to other men, especially when it comes to personal items like clothes, and she would never let her agent handle them.
And since she only has pajamas, it's inconvenient for her to go out and buy more.
I had no choice but to ask Yuko Ikezawa for help again.
Yuko Ikezawa glanced at Yoko Okino.
"If it's inconvenient, then forget it," Yoko Okino quickly said.
“No, but I do have an outfit that would suit you.” Yuko Ikezawa smiled and took a pink dress out of the closet.
Yoko Okino took the dress and looked at it, her expression changing. "It's so beautiful! Thank you!"
Yuko Ikezawa smiled and said, "I bought this before, but it doesn't suit my style! So I haven't worn it. I think it suits your style perfectly."
“Yes, I like it very much!” Yoko Okino nodded immediately.
She glanced inside.
"Um, could I have another pair of ripped socks?"
Yoko Okino's face flushed slightly; Chen Mo had already ruined the previous moment.
But she knew Chen Mo would definitely like it.
She definitely needs to prepare one for the dinner party tonight.
"Would white be okay?"
Yuko Ikezawa thought for a moment and asked,
She wanted to wear black, but if Yoko Okino also wore black, she might steal the spotlight.
She painstakingly saved up, only to have it all go to someone else.
This is not what she wants to see.
"can!"
Yoko Okino nodded immediately; she knew she didn't have much of a choice.
Moreover, white seems to match the style of this dress even better.
Chen Mo squinted for a moment, then felt as if someone had patted his shoulder.
He woke up immediately and turned around to find it was Eri Kisaki.
"Is there something you need?" Chen Mo asked, rubbing his eyes.
"Are you very free?" Eri Kisaki's face was cold, like an iceberg.
Chen Mo smiled. "I'm waiting for a new case, aren't I?"
“I have a new case here.”
After speaking, Eri Kisaki turned and walked towards her office.
Chen Mo's expression shifted, showing some curiosity about what kind of case it was.
After all, you can get a reward for completing the case.
Moreover, the system's rewards are quite good.
He entered the office and went straight to Eri Kisaki's desk, where he found case files already laid out.
"It seems this case is more appealing than I am."
Eri Kisaki spoke with a hint of jealousy, when she entered the office and was alone with Chen Mo.
Her expression returned to normal, and seeing Chen Mo flipping through the case files on his own, she deliberately pursed her lips and spoke.
After all, she wasn't a child, and she was just saying that to get Chen Mo's attention.
Chen Mo turned to look at Eri Kisaki.
I found her sitting on the bay window sill.
She has now returned to her usual self, with her hair neatly styled in an updo and her face adorned with exquisite makeup.
The outfit consists of a white shirt paired with a blue suit jacket and a black pencil skirt.
Her long, slender legs were still adorned with black suede, as always.
"How could that be! You will always be the most attractive person to me."
Chen Mo smiled and looked at Eri, offering a word of comfort. With the power of his Joyful Union Technique,
Basically, just a few words are enough to make the other person happy.
As expected, Eri Kisaki smiled again. "So, does that mean I'm more attractive than Ran?"
Chen Mo walked up to Eri Kisaki. "What? Still want to compare yourself to your daughter?"
A rare hint of willfulness appeared on Eri's face. "Can't I know?"
Chen Mo smiled slightly.
"sure!"
Eri Kisaki hadn't received Chen Mo's answer yet.
But he found that one of his legs was already in mid-air.
"No, I'm asking you for the answer, why are you tearing my stockings!"
"Wait! I haven't..."
"How did you get in?"
Chen Mo smiled.
"That's my answer!"
Chapter 14: Kuriyama Midori: Can I have a bite?
Chen Mo covered Eri with the blanket.
I put her glasses aside, guessing she'd have to get up and clean them later.
He returned to his desk and glanced briefly at the cases that Eri Kisaki had handled this time.
"Oh! Dr. Ogawa?"
Chen Mo immediately began to review the case files in his hand.
The client in this case is Ogawa, a surgeon.
Chen Mo knew about this case because a failed surgery he performed three years ago resulted in the death of a boy, which made the boy's father resentful.
So I've been sending gifts and money to Xiao Chuan for the past two years.
The other party's goal was simple: to kill Dr. Ogawa's son.
But in comparison,
Chen Mo was still more concerned about the name of this hospital.
St. Juliana Hospital!
Chen Mo's expression shifted.
He knew the world wasn't that simple.
It's not just the world of Detective Conan.
Moreover, it incorporates elements from other worlds.
Thinking about this, Chen Mo was actually looking forward to solving the case.
Perhaps I could take this opportunity to get to know Nanase Ren.
He closed the case file and sighed softly.
He glanced at Eri Kisaki on the sofa.
I should have saved my energy earlier; I was supposed to be dealing with this case this afternoon.
"Teacher." Kuriyama Midori walked in from the office.
However, upon entering, they found Eri Kisaki lying on the sofa.
Chen Mo sat at his desk.
"Teacher, she..."
Kuriyama Midori glanced at it and quickly understood what had happened.
After all, the marks are still there.
What a waste! It would be great if there were cups that could automatically catch the food, so I could save it anytime.
"It's alright, your teacher is just resting for a while, she'll wake up soon," Chen Mo said with a smile. "Do you know where Dr. Xiao Chuan lives?"
Kuriyama Midori snapped out of her daze and nodded quickly.
"Yes, I know! I took on this case with my teacher!"
Chen Mo smiled and said, "Alright! Good that you know! Let's go then! I'll take this case."
Kuriyama Midori looked at Chen Mo with some surprise, "Are you sure? This case isn't that simple."
"Don't worry, I'm confident. I'm just going to find out the specifics."
Chen Mo smiled and looked at Kuriyama Midori.
Of course, it was also a convenient way to get to know Nanase Ren.
Kuriyama Midori hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded.
"Okay! Then come with me! But Dr. Ogawa might be at work right now."
Chen Mo smiled and nodded, "Yes, it's okay. Let's go to Dr. Xiao Chuan's workplace and chat when he's free."
“Okay!” Kuriyama Midori glanced at Kisaki Eri, then left with Chen Mo.
This is the first time I've ever acted alone with Chen Mo.
I must seize this opportunity.
Kuriyama Midori entered the driver's seat and found Chen Mo already closed his eyes in the passenger seat.
It seems Chen Mo must be very tired lately.
She didn't dare disturb Chen Mo, but focused on driving to St. Juliana Hospital.
Chen Mo was actually just closing his eyes to review the development of the case.
It will be much easier to handle then.
He opened his eyes and immediately sent a message to Sato Miwako.
They asked her to help find Mr. Ogino, the father of Tomoya Ogino.
After all, he's dealing with this case ahead of schedule now, and if he wants to find the murderer, he still needs the help of the police.
Metropolitan Police Department Criminal Investigation Division
Miwako Sato looked at her phone.
She spent the whole morning looking at her phone.
She was torn between whether or not to take the initiative to invite Chen Mo.
