Chapter 107 Xiaolan's Request

In the coffee shop, the customers who were originally noisy became silent after the police arrived, and sat back to their seats obediently.

Maybe they could yell at the police and make trouble unreasonably, but now, a murder case happened under their noses, and no one wanted to be arrested as a suspect.

After all, in this era without surveillance and underdeveloped Internet, the police often handle cases not by reasoning, but by "intuition".

Just like Officer Megure just now, if someone still yells at him to go out, he will most likely be regarded as a suspect, or even directly arrested and taken back to the police station.

Shimizu Koji, Kisaki Eri and Xiaolan also sat back in their original seats.

At this time, after Xiaolan's introduction again, Shimizu Koji and Kisaki Eri also knew each other.

"I see, Xiaolan, your classmate just happened to have a case and wanted to seek legal assistance."

Kisaki Eri nodded. Although Xiaolan's mind was a little confused now, and she made the cause and effect that she didn't know unclearly, Kisaki Eri still understood.

Shimizu Koji has been silent because he has been considering changing, oh, no, finding another way.

As a lawyer, the first impression that Kisaki Eri gave him was that she was not the person he wanted to find.

It can't be said that she is glittering with jewels, but looking at the golden earrings and the milky white pearl necklace on her neck, Kisaki Eri is not a person who is short of money.

In addition to what Sonoko said before, she hates evil as much as she hates evil.

To be honest, Shimizu Koji has regretted his "recklessness" that day.

But indeed, no one would have thought that Sonoko's best friend Xiaolan, her mother would actually be a big lawyer.

All I can say is that fate is a trick.

"Well, that's probably it, Mom."

Xiaolan nodded, her expression was a little melancholy, not only because of what they were talking about, but also because such a good day today was messed up by the murder case.

Kisaki Eri was naturally very sensitive to Xiaolan's mood, and gently reached out and smoothed her bangs on her forehead.

Just as he was about to speak, he saw Conan and several policemen walking back to the coffee shop from the bathroom, and Conan led one of the policemen straight towards them.

"This lady has just been to the bathroom."

Conan's tone was a little hesitant. If possible, he really didn't want to do this, but he was the only one who could point out the suspect for the police.

His face was a little red, and he slightly tilted his eyes, not daring to look directly at Xiaolan.

Xiaolan was also full of surprise at this time, but Kisaki Eri was better. She almost understood what was going on very quickly.

She didn't think there was anything wrong. When the police said to her, "Please come with us," she turned around and whispered to Xiaolan for Conan, then got up and followed the police to the bathroom.

Moreover, Shimizu Koji saw that Kisaki Eri glanced at Conan, who was lowering his head, and there was actually a hint of appreciation in her eyes.

This was a little beyond his expectations, but it seemed to be the way it should be.

After Kisaki Eri and Conan left, only Shimizu Koji and Xiaolan were left in the seats.

The two sat opposite each other and hesitated for a while, and it was Xiaolan who took the initiative to speak.

"Shimizu-kun, do you think there is something wrong?"

Her eyes hesitated. Although she usually seemed a little less wise and smart, she was still very thoughtful in some aspects.

"Hmm?" Shimizu Koji didn't expect Xiaolan to be able to detect his thoughts, and was a little surprised.

Looking at the hesitation in Xiaolan's bright and moving eyes, Shimizu Koji pondered slightly and nodded gently.

He couldn't sit and watch things continue to develop in the wrong direction. It happened that Xiaolan was alone now, and it was the most appropriate time to talk about it.

Although this might have some impact on the girl's worldview, Shimizu Koji felt that if Xiaolan's mother was a lawyer, no matter how naive she was, she should understand some truths.

However, just as Shimizu Koji was about to explain, Xiaolan spoke first: "Shimizu-kun, actually, actually, Senior Sister Tsukamoto told me later that I, I roughly understand what you mean."

"I also sympathize with Mrs. Hosaka's experience, but, that's why I want my mother to take over this case even more."

"She, I, although our family is not as powerful as Sonoko's family, my mother's strength, absolutely! Absolutely can solve this case!"

"So, Shimizu-kun, I would like to ask you to wait until the case here is over, and go to my mother's office with me."

Xiaolan lowered her head slightly, as if she didn't want to face Shimizu Koji's answer, but in fact, only she knew.

In addition to the reasons mentioned above, she also wanted to see her mother stand up for true justice!

She didn't think that her mother, Eri Kisaki, was a pedantic lawyer who only abided by the letter of the law!

Although Xiaolan didn't understand those tricks yet, she also had her own vague standard for measuring justice in her heart.

After listening to Tsukamoto Sumi's general explanation, she realized that although the club did have normal transactions, in fact, it was indeed taking advantage of the situation.

Because, the house, which is now worth 80 million yen, was bought from Mrs. Hosaka by the Takahashi group for only 10 million yen.

The land price at that time was actually worth at least 40 million.

To be fair, no one wanted to let such benefits slip away.

Mrs. Hosaka's behavior might violate the so-called spirit of the contract, but as a single mother, her behavior was even more inappropriate in Xiaolan's view.

Shimizu Koji frowned slightly. He felt that he and Xiaolan were not very familiar with each other, but with Xiaolan's attitude, no matter who he was looking at, he couldn't directly refuse.

Otherwise, if Xiaolan shed two lines of tears later, Conan and Kisaki Eri would see it and think he had done something.

Although Xiaolan looked like a strong girl, Tie Zhuyu, who looked stronger than her, was caught off guard when she cried, sobbing non-stop.

After a short silence, Shimizu Koji nodded to Xiaolan, then picked up his phone to check the time.

He frowned slightly, then stood up directly, and walked to the bathroom in Xiaolan's somewhat suspicious eyes.

"I'll solve this case now, Xiaolan, just wait here."

Indifferently, only one voice was left. The confidence in Shimizu Koji's tone made Xiaolan subconsciously think of Kudo Shinichi.

But unlike Kudo Shinichi, Shimizu Koji did not seem to be so actively interested in the case. It was just like he was talking about something that couldn't be more ordinary.

And it was this feeling that made Xiaolan feel as if she was many years younger than Shimizu Koji every time she was in front of him.

The sense of distance was very strong.
