Chapter 95 Seeking Advice from Kogoro Mouri
The more Miyano Shiho followed the oriole, the more uneasy she felt. She had been this road before, the very road she had followed instinctively in a daze. This road led to 2-21 Beika-cho.
Shiho Miyano originally thought she would be taken to some secret base or something, but she never expected that she would be taken to the Kudo residence.
Could it be that Shinichi Kudo has also been controlled?
Forgive her bluntness, but she is a brilliant researcher, and quite valuable to some organizations, but what good is it to catch a detective?
As she walked, Shiho Miyano's pace slowed down, as if she was very reluctant to go find Shinichi Kudo.
When my mind was foggy from the fever, I instinctively sought out others like myself, but now that my mind is much clearer, I suddenly don't want to go anymore.
She must be wanted right now. She knows the organization's attitude towards defectors very well. Maybe something's not right; Gin is definitely looking for her too. If they follow the trail and find the shrunken Shinichi Kudo, not only will the two of them be natural test subjects, but the people around that detective will probably suffer as well.
However, the person in front of her didn't give her a choice at all. Thinking about those ruthless outlaws who organized the bombing of the school, it was not unimaginable.
So, after apologizing in his heart to the famous detective he hadn't even met yet, he started moving his legs even faster.
Shiho Miyano isn't Conan. Although she sensed that the person in front of her probably wouldn't hurt her, she wouldn't dare to strike up a conversation to extract information.
But to her surprise, a loaf of bread and a bottle of mineral water suddenly appeared in front of her. Shiho Miyano, who was always aware of her own feelings and had felt like she was in an ice cellar ever since her sister died, felt a warm current well up from the bottom of her heart. Shiho Miyano was secretly on guard. She had some understanding of psychology. Under extreme conditions, any act of kindness would be magnified, even if the person who made the act did not have good intentions.
However, the complexity of human psychology is precisely reflected here. No one can be absolutely rational, and everyone has moments when they lose control of their emotions.
Shiho Miyano had been a defector for some time. This place wasn't far from the home of Professor Agasa and the others. Huang Que pulled Shiho Miyano, who was walking towards the Kudo residence across the street, and politely rang the doorbell.
He politely tossed out the words, "This person is a researcher for the Black Organization. Like Shinichi Kudo, he shrunk after taking the drug," and left without looking back, leaving Professor Agasa bewildered in the wind.
Finding a secluded spot without surveillance cameras, Akutagawa Hiko reverted to his original form and reunited with his ice clone, who had just received a request to find the mistress. They then leisurely returned home.
"Catching mistresses—I feel like Kogoro Mouri is better at it," Akutagawa Hiko stroked his chin.
Although catching a mistress won't boost one's reputation, it's very helpful for developing connections, so it's impossible to turn one away from it.
However, when it comes to tracking and investigation, Akutagawa Hiko, with his ninja skills, is naturally not to be outdone. The problem is that it's difficult to strike the right balance.
Such behavior of invading others' privacy and probing their secrets can easily cross legal boundaries. Even for detectives, this line may be more lenient, but it's still not something to take the risk of.
After all, this can directly prove that you are following someone. Those photos taken of you meeting with your mistress are direct evidence.
But it doesn't matter, he just happens to know a detective next door who is quite rich in both practical experience and theoretical knowledge. With some good wine, he won't have to worry about the detective not teaching him, the junior.
Sure enough, with two bottles of good wine on the table, everything was negotiable.
When it comes to catching mistresses, Kogoro Mouri is incredibly experienced. He can talk about it endlessly, and some of his methods even left Akutagawa Hiko speechless. He also has quite a few shady tricks up his sleeve when it comes to avoiding crossing legal boundaries.
Kogoro Mouri's understanding of the law is even more surprising, but it's also quite reasonable.
His wife is Eri Kisaki, a powerful figure in the legal profession known as the Queen. It's perfectly normal for her to have some knowledge of the law.
"Speaking of which, you've gotten this kind of commission too?"
Kogoro Mouri waved a toast and handed Akutagawa Hiko a can of beer. When Akutagawa didn't take it, he opened it and drank it himself: "Not long ago, I also received a case where someone suspected his wife of having an affair."
Akutagawa asked curiously, "I wonder if Uncle Mori could take me with him when he goes on his investigation? I'd like to observe it firsthand."
Logically speaking, it's an unspoken rule in the industry that a commission shouldn't be handed over to two detectives, especially for commissions like catching a mistress. Unless there's an ulterior motive, it's a family matter that shouldn't be aired in public, and as few people as possible should know about it.
However, both of the children in the family already knew about this commission, so one more person knowing wouldn't make a difference. In fact, having another very capable detective would be a win for the person who commissioned the commission.
It's all for the sake of better fulfilling the commission, and has little to do with the two bottles of good wine on the table.
"Haha, of course, no problem."
When Akutagawa Hiko heard the client's name, a case immediately came to mind.
The client's name was Maru Denjiro. He suspected his wife of cheating on him, so he specifically commissioned Kogoro Mouri, who was famous in this field, to investigate the matter.
This person actually made his fortune through lending money, but as a creditor, he was extremely irresponsible. He would even sell the things that others had mortgaged and shamelessly demand repayment of the debt.
If someone like that met Conan, how could he possibly survive? He was directly killed by a kendo instructor. Now, not only can he not enjoy the money he earned, but his wife and her lover can also live a carefree life with his money.
But this is a fitting punishment, isn't it? He sold someone's family heirloom, and the repayment deadline hadn't even passed yet, and he still dared to do it.
People would risk their lives for money.
Imagine someone mortgages something important to motivate themselves, then manages to earn enough money within the deadline to redeem it, only to have the creditor sell it instead.
Not only that, he also wanted to get back the money he lent out, with interest. How could anyone not be indignant about such shameless behavior?
For the next two days, aside from some trivial matters at the agency, Akutagawa Hiko spent his time learning from Kogoro Mouri how an ordinary detective catches a mistress.
In just two days, Kogoro Mouri had obtained conclusive evidence, which allowed him to report back to his client. Although she was disguised, her signature beauty mark gave her away.
Looking at the woman in the photo, who looks to be around thirty years old, and the client, who is over fifty, although I know that older men marrying younger women is considered traditional, it's no wonder that they would have an affair.
