"To put it another way, you can just order takeout from your dad's place."
"Listen to me, if you don't use it to improve the current situation, I'll just give the card to your dad. You should know very well what he'll do with it."
Lynch then issued a threat.
Xiaolan was completely dumbfounded after hearing this. However, considering what the other person said, she couldn't even imagine what would happen if her father got the card. It was a difficult situation.
"I, I will use it."
Xiaolan compromised and agreed to use the money to improve her family's situation, otherwise her father might actually do something like this. After all, the other party was not short of money, but she didn't want her father to use so much money to degenerate.
Once the other party has this money, they will become even more unruly, and the idea of remarrying the two of them will have to be completely abandoned.
Xiaolan said it was the first time she had ever encountered someone forcing her to spend money!
However, Xiaolan also knew very well that the other party genuinely wanted what was best for her and didn't want her to have to be so frugal and work so hard.
Honestly, this is a situation where neither one's own father nor one's childhood sweetheart has ever shown any concern.
Xiao Lan felt a warm glow inside.
"Oh right, I brought you to the wrong place."
The next moment, the two appeared near the detective agency.
"I led you to the wrong place. You should come back here first."
Xiaolan looked around and confirmed that it was indeed the case.
"Qi Jun, would you like to come along?"
"No, I have some things to do tonight. I'll come see you in a couple of days."
"Come on, give me a kiss."
Lin Qi lifted the other person's chin and kissed him.
Xiaolan didn't refuse. After all, a lot had happened in this kind of situation, not to mention that the other party had already used a weakened ability. They were already very familiar with each other.
"I am leaving."
After saying this, Lin Qi disappeared, leaving the girl alone. She touched her lips, smiled, and turned to leave.
Xiaolan didn't press the matter further, and she roughly understood that the other person was quite busy. However, if she knew that the other person was busy having an in-depth conversation with her mother, she would probably be furious.
After Xiaolan got home, she ordered takeout.
While waiting for dinner, Kogoro Mori called out in a lazy, nonchalant manner.
"Xiao Lan, isn't dinner ready yet?"
This looks exactly like someone who is completely useless.
The shrunken drum washing machine also felt a bit hungry.
The washing machine was also hungry, but it wasn't in a good mood. Its parents' divorce had left it incredibly depressed, and more importantly, it was questioning the meaning of life—its father had actually cheated on it...
"Almost done. I didn't cook tonight, I ordered takeout."
Xiao Lan came out and spoke at that moment, and the doorbell rang as well. Then, she came in with all sorts of high-end ingredients, leaving the two of them stunned.
Kogoro Mouri was completely dumbfounded when he saw all this delicious food, and then asked in a puzzled tone:
"Xiao Lan, what holiday is it today? Why is everything so lavish?"
Kogoro Mouri seriously doubts whether he has woken up yet. (The rest of the text appears to be unrelated and possibly machine-generated gibberish.)
The front-loading washing machine also pretended to be clueless, looking completely bewildered.
"Sister Xiaolan, what's going on? Why is it so lavish today?"
Xiaolan simply said that she was in a good mood.
Suddenly, the two of them, one big and one small, were looking at each other.
At this moment, Kogoro Mouri couldn't help but speak up.
"Xiaolan, you haven't found a boyfriend, have you?"
Kogoro Mouri couldn't think of any other possibility besides this one.
The washing machine was completely stunned when it heard this. Was this for real? Impossible! How could Xiaolan have a boyfriend? Even if she did, it could only be him!
The front-loading washing machine wanted to hold back, but instead of questioning the other party, it intended to hear their response.
Xiaolan never expected that her father's first thought in this situation would be this kind of thing. She had to admit that his wildly imaginative idea was actually quite accurate.
Then, glancing at himself again, the childhood friend, now completely dumbfounded after shrinking, decided to... There are some things that should be said, since Lin Qi only comes here occasionally, so things can't always be kept secret. It's better to just tell him the truth and let him give up.
"Correct!"
"I do have a boyfriend now."
Xiao Lan readily nodded in agreement.
These words immediately caused both of them to gasp in surprise.
"What?" x2
Upon hearing this, the two were filled with disbelief. What was all this about? Could feelings really come true just from a casual remark?
Kogoro Mouri was completely dumbfounded. He never expected that his little cabbage would actually be picked by someone else.
"Xiaolan, who is your boyfriend? Have I met him before? And why haven't you mentioned anything about him before? What kind of person is he?"
Although Kogoro Mouri mostly lets his daughters grow up in a free-range manner, he still has to pay attention to these kinds of things, just in case they fall into a trap.
...
P.S.: Please, handsome guys and beautiful girls, add this to your favorites, recommend it, share it, and give it flowers! Please do everything you can! If you haven't added it to your favorites yet, please do so! Thank you so much! I'm bowing down to you all!
Chapter 289 Kogoro: Why does it feel like my underwear has been stripped off?
Xiao Lan felt a little regretful as she watched the two of them asking her all sorts of questions. But then she remembered that someone had said she could just say it openly and honestly, without having to hide it.
After all, he had already gotten her, and he didn't intend to keep her as a mistress or plaything.
Xiaolan was initially worried that the other person might just be treating her like a plaything, but after receiving this assurance, she eventually fell for him.
So at this point, I wasn't scared anymore.
"He teaches Lynch. As for the rest, we'll talk about it when I invite him over next time."
Xiao Lan didn't say much at this point.
When the front-loading washing machine realized this was true, it acted impulsively and couldn't wait to question the machine.
"no!"
"How could you have a boyfriend!"
These words immediately drew the attention of both of them.
Xiaolan knew the situation, so she looked at the other person with particularly cold eyes. Why can't I find a boyfriend and have to hang myself on you?
Or do I have to wait until you grow up before I can be with you?
Not to mention you're too selfish. You never cared about my family's life or death. Keeping you here is already a favor because we grew up together. The important thing is that Lin Qi is there to back me up.
Kogoro Mouri was also annoyed. He was surprised and slightly displeased that his daughter had suddenly found a boyfriend he'd never even heard of. However, considering his daughter's age of 27, he trusted him. Most importantly, he was amazed that she had managed to forget about Shinichi Kudo, or rather, completely forget about that brat.
Kogoro Mouri may be a bit muddle-headed, but he's not an idiot; otherwise, he wouldn't have become a Superstar in the first place.
So when I saw this guy who called himself Conan, I immediately realized that he was probably Shinichi Kudo. He had obviously gotten into some trouble and was hiding from me. Considering that I was friends with his father and had watched him grow up, I decided to hide for him.
The problem is that her daughter's attitude towards the other party is obviously wrong, or rather, it's as if she already knew that the other party was Shinichi Kudo, and she's making a fuss about going to live with her mother.
Kogoro Mouri now understands that his daughter definitely knows something, perhaps even more than he does.
And the person who told her daughter was most likely her boyfriend whom she had never heard of.
Kogoro Mouri said that it would be a lie to say he wasn't curious, and the most important thing was to find out where the other party came from.
Anyway, if the other party is still considered normal, I won't cook for them. After all, it's better than this guy who can't even take care of himself right now.
Most importantly, he didn't think much of that kid at all. If it weren't for his childhood sweetheart and his daughter's unwavering devotion, he definitely wouldn't have agreed to their relationship.
After all, this kind of person is typically unreliable, especially in matters of the heart and family.
"What are you saying, brat? What's it to you?"
Kogoro Mori decisively smashed the washing machine with a hammer.
Shinichi Kudo snapped out of his daze after being hit and hurriedly spoke up.
"Sister Ran, don't you like Shinichi anymore?"
Xiaolan glanced at him, noticing his eagerness.
"Who told you I like Shinichi? We're childhood friends, but childhood friends don't mean we like or love each other."
"Not to mention someone who is always self-centered inside, he is not worth my liking. Or maybe someone might like him because of his appearance and excellence, but that person is not me. At least I don't have any liking or love for him right now. To me, he is just a childhood friend."
Xiaolan laid everything bare, speaking directly to him. After all, she had already made up her mind about him, so she wouldn't think too much about it. More importantly, her childhood sweetheart was too selfish. And she had foolishly sacrificed herself to help him. Anyway, it was all a tragic fate, so be it. She had already made up her mind, and she wouldn't change it.
So to hell with Shinichi Kudo!
Upon hearing this, the front-loading washing machine seemed to have been struck by lightning, immediately taking a step back in disbelief.
Seeing the other party's attitude, Xiaolan didn't say much. Anyway, things had already been said, so she could do whatever she wanted. She didn't want the other party to have any ulterior motives or harass her. After all, that person wasn't magnanimous. Even if the other party might become this guy's nominal new father, he wouldn't show any mercy, okay?
At this moment, Kogoro Mouri confirmed that his daughter definitely knew a lot of things, and at the same time, he truly let go of that brat. After all, when he mentioned that brat's name, his eyes were no longer as bright as before; they were just flat and lifeless.
At that moment, Kogoro Mouri pondered the name Lynch.
"You're from the Xia Kingdom, right?"
"By the way, how old is the other person?"
"The other person is a first-year high school student."
Xiaolan didn't hide anything about this and answered honestly.
"What's the other person's situation? Or are they an international student or something?"
After hearing this, Xiaolan thought for a moment and decided to lay the groundwork a little.
"That's not true."
"The other person grew up here from a young age; they're not an international student or anything like that."
Kogoro Mouri nodded after hearing this, since there were quite a few examples like this.
"By the way, what does the other family do?"
Kogoro Mouri immediately adopted the demeanor of a shrewd businessman, as if he were trying to marry a rich man, and instantly transformed into an unreliable scoundrel.
"Dad, why don't you just look up the name Lin Qi yourself?"
Xiaolan also knew her father's situation. She had to admit that she never expected that her (nine) Lingliu Temple instrument scars and drunkard father was actually a member of the Mori family, and a direct descendant at that. The only problem was that she was useless and had ended up in this mess.
When Kogoro Mouri heard his daughters' words and saw through them, his eyes suddenly turned cold. He didn't say anything, but he thought to himself that he would find out if they knew something else. He vaguely remembered the old man mentioning the name Lin Qi.
Without saying a word, Kogoro Mouri started drinking, then excused himself to go to the restroom, sent a message, and waited for a reply.
Even if you don't want to deal with many things and want to give up, you still need to ask some questions in this situation.
After a while, my phone vibrated. After reading the relevant information, I couldn't help but sigh and give a wry smile. I felt like my daughter had found 043 evil dragons. This kind of person is very dangerous, okay?
In this situation, the other side will inevitably go to war with this country sooner or later.
After all, this kind of person is not one to stay put. Although they are being suppressed, they will eventually retaliate.
Kogoro Mouri had an urge to cut off his daughter's contact with the other party, after all, this kind of dangerous person was not someone his daughter should mess with.
Of course, he had never met the person in person and did not know anything about him. He was unsure whether the other party was capable or not. However, the fact that the so-called strongest sorcerer in modern times had killed him to avoid being wiped out made him think. The other party must know something.
Moreover, the bright light that appeared high in the sky was followed by a nationwide tremor, and I happened to see the light, which was the work of the other side.
Honestly, the fact that something from so far away could shake the entire country, making it feel like it was about to collapse, is enough to prove that the other side really has some skills.
Kogoro Mouri felt a headache coming on. He scratched his head a few times and thought for a moment that he needed to find an opportunity to have a serious talk with Ran. This boyfriend was not someone he could just casually date.
The key question is whether your daughter knows the truth about the other party? According to intelligence, the other party is surrounded by quite a few beautiful girls.
Kogoro Mouri decided to go out and have a good drink to calm down.
