Chapter 629 Conan: That despicable Amuro Tooru, he's gone too far!
Kogoro Mouri pulled the invitation out of the envelope and read the text inside.
Yes, it is exactly the same as my letter, except for the name at the beginning, everything else is identical..................
It can be basically concluded that this is an invitation sent by the same person.
but...................
Kogoro Mouri narrowed his eyes slightly, which were hidden behind the invitation.
Inviting him to Kogoro Mouri was quite reasonable, considering he frequented high society and many wealthy people were willing to spend a little money to have dinner with him...
but.................
He knew Long Si's personality very well. This guy basically did nothing but solve cases and play cards, and it seemed that he also had his own regular job.
Therefore, very few people would invite him, and most people can't even find him...
Now, the owner of this Twilight Villa has invited both me and Mr. Long Si, and both of us are detectives who have solved some major cases... This...
What does this guy want to do?
Involuntarily, some things that Kogoro Mouri had seen and experienced in his past came to mind.
For example, some rich people have a perverse hobby like gathering a bunch of detectives together to challenge each other with riddles, or something like that...
Now, that possibility cannot be ruled out...
Thinking this, Kogoro Mouri shook his head inwardly.
Why think so much? Let's just hand this invitation to Brother Long first.
Whether he goes or not is a completely different matter; why worry about it so much...
When the time comes, we'll meet force with force and water with earth.
"This letter is the same as my invitation."
Kogoro Mouri looked up at Ran.
Xiaolan nodded.
"Hmm, it seems they also want to invite Uncle Long to come along."
"but,"
Xiaolan became somewhat puzzled.
"Why was this invitation, intended for Uncle Long, sent to our house...?"

Before Ran could finish speaking, the door to the Mouri Detective Agency was pushed open again.
This time, it's our little Conan, the Grim Reaper elementary school student, who's back!
He had just entered the house when he heard Xiaolan talking, mentioning things like "Uncle Long" and "invitation"...
Conan immediately became curious.
"An invitation? What invitation, Sister Xiaolan?"
"Conan is back!"
Ran turned her head, smiled at Conan, and instead of answering, said...
"Then I'd better hurry up and go cook."
As she spoke, she glanced at Amuro Tooru.
The meaning is quite clear: Is Mr. Amuro also having a meal here?
Amuro Tooru really wanted to agree with Ran, but he also felt that his eagerness to stay and eat here might seem a bit deliberate.
After all, I actually had before
I didn't eat at Mr. Mori's house very often...
"Let's cook it all together,"
Whether he was able to overhear Amuro Tooru's thoughts or not, Kogoro Mouri spoke up when Amuro Tooru seemed slightly conflicted.
"Amuro arrived early today, which is quite rare, and it's a restaurant anyway, so Ran, it's just a matter of cooking an extra bowl of rice..."
"Yes, yes, Daddy is right,"
Ran smiled and nodded, then looked at Amuro Tooru.
"Then please, Mr. Amuro, try my cooking today..."
"hehe,"
Amuro Tooru smiled slightly, still as gentle and refined as ever, a true gentleman.
"I've heard from Mr. Mori that Miss Ran's cooking skills are superb, and today I'm finally able to taste them..."
"where,"
Ran felt a little embarrassed after hearing what Amuro Tooru said.
"It's just some ordinary home-style dishes..."
After exchanging a few more pleasantries, Xiaolan turned and went to cook.
Meanwhile, Conan watched as Ran showed little concern for his return, instead becoming quite friendly with the 'malicious' Amuro Tooru beside her, and couldn't help but feel annoyed.
His gaze towards Amuro Tooru grew increasingly hostile...................
This damned guy is not only a member of some mysterious organization that caused him such a miserable life, but he also tries to monitor his every move.
Now that I've seen through him and distanced myself from him, this guy is still not giving up and is even trying to set his sights on Xiaolan!
snort!
He's glib and deliberately trying to please Xiaolan; he definitely has ulterior motives and is no good person.
Over there, Kogoro Mouri, behind the table, shared the same sentiment.
This Amuro Tooru, from the moment he approached him, kept showering him with compliments, and he did the same to everyone.
While it's true that everyone likes to hear nice things, this guy is being far too deliberate; he definitely has ulterior motives, and perhaps quite ambitious ones at that...
After Xiaolan went to cook, the atmosphere at the scene suddenly became somewhat quiet.
Amuro Tooru, seeing this, realized it wouldn't work and started showering Kogoro Mouri with compliments again.
Kogoro Mouri also cooperated by performing a magic trick involving opening his mouth and sticking out his tongue, which made Tooru Amuro break out in a cold sweat, and the atmosphere in the room became lively again...
Before long, Xiaolan had finished cooking the meal.
The four of them sat down at the table for dinner. Conan, as if remembering something, subconsciously asked about what had just happened.
"Sister Xiaolan, what is that invitation you mentioned earlier...?"
"Oh, you mean that?"
Xiaolan put down her chopsticks and smiled gently.
"When I came back to check the mailbox, I found an envelope that was exactly the same as the invitation my dad had received before."
"It also had the words 'To Mr. Long Si' written on it, which I found a bit strange, so I brought it up to my father..."
