Chapter 4: Mouri Kogoro's face-changing skills?
"Who are you, kid? What is your relationship with Ran?"
Even though he's not a very good detective, Kogoro Mouri is not a fool. He knows very well that with his daughter's strength, it is impossible for a stranger to break into the house. That's means, the boy in front of him is most likely invited by his daughter. Even if Kogoro Mouri guessed the truth, at this moment, his attitude is still not friendly. Maybe all fathers in the world are the same, and they have an instinctive resistance to men who are close to their daughters. Mori Kogoro is no exception.
"You are Detective Kogoro Mori? It's our first meeting, my name is Lynn."
Seeing Kogoro Mouri appear, Lynn stood up immediately. He could see that Mouri's attitude is not good, but at this moment, his performance is very appropriate.
"Oh? Do you know me? But I have never seen you!"
"Dad!"
Although Kogoro Mori had just drunk a lot of alcohol and his mind was not so clear, as a detective, he instinctively frowned at the boy who he had never met. But before he continued to question Lynn, Maori Ran, who had walked out of the kitchen upon hearing the scream, interrupted.
"This is our landlord, Mr. Lynn, Dad, don't be too rude!"
For Lynn, this landlord, Maori Ran, still has a very good impression. It's okay now. Lynn had given a lot of help, but her drunk father tried Lynn as a prisoner. This is too much!
"Huh? The landlord?"
Hearing what his daughter said, Kogoro Mouri was subconsciously shocked. landlord? Isn't the landlord is a bald arbor in his sixties? No! I heard that the landlord has changed a while ago? And the new landlord's name seems to be—Lynn?
"Hey! It turned out to be the landlord."
"Sorry, sorry for my rudeness, I thought it was a wild boy that came to pursue my daughter. If it's the landlord, then it's totally fine."
"Sit down, please sit down! Ran! So please make tea to entertain the landlord!"
In front of Lynn, Kogoro Mouri performed a face-changing skill perfectly. From the beginning, his serious anti-wolf attitude has directly changed to the current dog licking mode. Money makes you an uncle these days. But Mouri Kogoro is a poor man. Especially for his detective career, he makes more money and less money depends on luck. It's better to meet a generous benefactor, but in the small cases he usually receives, he doesn't even make money for alcohol.
So facing Lynn, Kogoro Mouri lost his confidence first. The most important thing is that Kogoro Mouri knows that he can't pay this month's rent. Then seeing the landlord, he still can't say enough good things? Otherwise, he will be kicked out.
"Mr. Mori is so kind."
"Today I was also invited by Maori classmates to discuss the rent."
Mouri Kogoro's attitude changed so fast that Lynn's heart made complaints again and again. On the surface, he still looked calm, and briefly explained the reason for his presence here. At the same time, Maori Ran also whispered an explanation to his father. Knowing that the young landlord had agreed to postpone the rent, Kogoro Mouri burst into laughter.
"It turned out to be like this!"
"As expected of Mr. Landlord, he is so courageous at a young age, really amazing!"
"Ran! Go cook!"
Being able to postpone the rent payment, Mouri Kogoro's pressure vanished. It's just the middle-aged uncle's next words that caused many black lines to appear on Lynn's forehead.
"Mr. Landlord, we will get drunk today! To express my gratitude!"
"Mr. Mori...I'm not an adult yet..."
Although it has changed to another world, the law of the Special Zone still does not allow minors to drink. Maori this guy...
He used to work in the Metropolitan Police Department, but now he wants to stay drunk with a minor? Are you serious?
"Dad, what are you talking nonsense! What time is this? Are you still thinking about drinking?"
Moori Kogoro was not conscious of his behavior, but Mouri Ran's pretty face was already blushing thoroughly. She hurriedly stepped forward and pulled her father's arm, then snatched away the wine bottle in Kogoro Mouri's hand. I can't let my father drink anymore today! The faces of the Maori family...he had lost all of them!
"I am not happy..."
"Ahem... I know, I will not drink today! Absolutely!"
I was disturbed, and Kogoro Mouri wanted to refute it. As a result, before he could finish his words, he saw Maori Ran's pretty eyebrows erect, which instantly made him stiff in place!
Murderous intent!
This is murderous intent! Even Lynn on the side can feel the chilling aura!
"Ah...then...I...I'm going to cook!"
Probably because of the blunder in Lynn's eyes, Maori Ran's cheeks were immediately dyed crimson. Shame! What a shame!
Ran Mouri ran back to the kitchen while holding the wine bottle, did not dare to look at Lynn again. I must have been misunderstood by the landlord as a violent girl!
Really deserves to be Ran.
"Ah... Then Mr. Maori, why don't we... sit down first?"
As Ran's back disappeared at the kitchen door, Linn's gaze quickly turned to Mouuri Kogoro. Because the wine bottle was snatched by his daughter, this middle-aged uncle looked in the direction of the kitchen with a frustrated face, and at the same time shrugged his shoulders softly, looking decadent.
"Sit? Oh yes! Mr. Landlord, please sit down!"
Under Lin's reminder, Kogoro Mouri finally reacted and graciously invited Lynn to sit down.
"I heard that Mr. Mori is a very famous detective, and I am also very curious about the profession of a detective. If possible, can Mr. Maori tell me about the cases you have investigated?"
If Lynn is a teenager, and such a middle-aged uncle is alone in the living room, the atmosphere will be very embarrassing. But Lynn is not an ignorant boy, he knows how to get closer and communicate correctly. Now, in just a few words, he easily let Mouri Kogoro open the chattering box. It's just that once the chat box is opened, it's hard to take it back.
Seeing the scene of Kogoro Moori blowing and spitting, Lynn couldn't help but regret it secretly. In the future... it's better to do less!
