Chapter 31

However, the clever Mouri Ran had already closed the door to guests, hiding in the small building.

The noise outside had nothing to do with the Mouri Detective Office.

【Shinjuku 3-chome, Kiyomura Sushi, the Lancer group was eating rice balls.】

【Cú Chulainn swallowed the rice ball heroically, glanced at his Master, and said seemingly nonchalantly: "Hey, Master, if you could maintain the seriousness when solving cases, your popularity with women wouldn't be bad."】

【The mustache detective heard this and laughed loudly: "I can't do that, after all, Mouri Kogoro has never been a serious person."】

【"... Really, don't know what to say about you."】

【Cú Chulainn complained: "However, you guy, you are indeed qualified to be my Master; my previous contempt for you was my mistake."】

【Mouri Kogoro waved his hand: "Doesn't matter, it's all small things."】

【Cú Chulainn became interested, curious: "Oh, according to what you say, what is a big thing?"】

【The mustache detective thought for a moment and said calmly: "There are no big things in life, just cherish the journey~."】

【The blue-clad Lancer expressed agreement: "Makes sense, come, Master, let's have a drink!"】

【Saying that, he raised his wine glass, and Kogoro also smiled and raised his.】

【They drank and toasted, the two drinking it all in one gulp with heroic smiles.】

【The atmosphere was just right, and Cú Chulainn asked with a bit of drunkenness: "In the commission, you want to protect that little girl, did you find her?"】

【Kogoro nodded: "I have clues, I also asked Inspector Megure to use the police force to help me keep an eye on it, but ten years have passed since the commission, she should be a grown woman now."】

【Following that, the mustache detective picked up the old commission letter melancholically.】

【On the letter paper, lines of handwriting were like dragons and snakes, full of deep affection.】

【At the bottom was a photo of a black-haired little girl; she looked dazed, as if she didn't know what was about to happen...】

【—Signatory, Yukinoshita Yukino.】

Because the amount of information was too large, people were stunned simultaneously.

"Yukinoshita Yukino, who is this?"

"Not clear, is there anyone in reality who knows this person?"

"Could it be that... Yukinoshita family in Chiba Prefecture?"

"Seems so, the eldest daughter of the Chiba Yukinoshita family is called Yukino."

"No, why be a riddle-maker? Is there anyone who can elaborate!"

"Listening to this description, it's just a small landlord in the county, so-so."

"Got it, this will smash a few hundred million to acquire the Yukinoshita family."

"Acquire a hammer, Chiba Prefecture is bigger than Tokyo and Kanagawa Prefecture combined."

"The total output of Chiba is higher than the GDP of provinces like Jilin in that big country, the Yukinoshita

"Do you understand the gold content of the Chiba elite family? With assets of ten billion US dollars, the companies they control add up to about sixty or seventy billion US dollars..."

"Converted to yen, that's trillions of yen, not to mention that Yukinoshita Haruno's mother is a prefectural assembly member, and one step further is the national parliament—she is truly one of the people who hold the power of life and death over a country!"

"99.99% of people will never have the chance to come into contact with someone of this class in their entire lives!"

"You call this a small landlord? If one could become a live-in son-in-law of the Yukinoshita family, that would be absolutely amazing!"

"So, no matter which world it is, Yukinoshita Haruno is a dragon among people, right..."

"It's a pity she died so young. I wonder why she died?"

……

"Sister... is dead?"

In the Sky-Curtain World, Yukinoshita Yukino feels a bit sad.

The moment she saw the photo of that little girl, she recognized it as herself in childhood.

Thinking that Haruno was still thinking of her even after she died, Yukino feels like crying.

Suddenly, a somewhat mischievous, teasing voice rings out.

"Oh my~ is little Yukino sad for me? Onee-chan is really so happy."

Yukinoshita Haruno walks over with a smile and pats her cute sister's head.

"Who's worried about you, you sister-complex."

Yukino is stunned, turns her head away, and doesn't forget to wipe the tears from the corners of her eyes while stubbornly retorting.

……

【The street is bustling with people coming and going, and two people stand side by side.】

【The blue-clad Lancer curls the corner of his mouth, his smile arrogant: "Master, feel free to go find people; the Child of Light of Ireland will protect you."】

【"Haha, I know, you are invincible~."】

【Mouri Kogoro smiles, looking at his servant's stats with immense peace of mind.】
