"I thought the news I heard from my friends was fake, but I didn't expect Sayuri to actually do it... How could things turn out like this!"
Looking at Robert's painful face, Maori Kogoro quickly held his shoulders and comforted him:
"No, Mr. Robert, I haven't confirmed whether your wife is cheating on you. In fact, these photos can't prove anything. You see, the behavior of the two people above is not beyond the line."
When saying this, Kogoro Maori was actually muttering to himself.
After all, the photo was taken when Luo Shu and Sawamura Sayuri met in the early days, and the scene of the two of them leaving arm in arm was only seen by Maori Kogoro himself.
From this perspective, the news that Mr. Robert heard from his friend about Mrs. Sayuri's affair might not be groundless, right?
Could it be that the target is not Officer Luo Shu, but someone else? Then it seems necessary to observe for a long time.
With his mind churning, Maori Kogoro comforted Robert:
"Personally, I am more inclined to believe that this is a misunderstanding."
"Misunderstanding?" Robert hesitated and looked at Kogoro Mouri with some confusion.
Seeing this, Maori Kogoro took a deep breath and then said:
"Given your status, you should have heard of it, right?"
"The rumored secret department of the Metropolitan Police Department..."
"The group of people called 'Wujinshu'..."
Chapter 110 Is It My Fault?
Samurai Shu? The Metropolitan Police Department has this department? Conan, who was eavesdropping, was filled with confusion.
As the 'savior of the Metropolitan Police Department' in the newspapers, a famous detective who has a good relationship with the police chiefs of the Metropolitan Police Department, the former famous detective Kudo Shinichi and now Conan, he has never heard that the Metropolitan Police Department has a department called 'Bujinshu'.
Moreover, judging from what Kogoro Mori said, Luo Shu seems to be related to the secret department of the Metropolitan Police Department called the Bushinshu?
The secret service of the police contacted the wife of an English diplomat? There is something wrong with this.
Just as Conan was thinking this, he suddenly heard footsteps coming from behind him.
Suddenly, Conan was startled and turned his head to look behind him, only to see a man in his 30s wearing brown work clothes just walking into the aisle.
"Ok?"
The man who had just walked over seemed surprised to see the child and asked:
"Little boy, what are you doing standing here?"
Hearing this, Conan quickly pretended to be stupid and explained:
"Uncle, which way is the bathroom? This place is too big and I can't find where the bathroom is."
As the two were talking, Robert and Maori Kogoro, who were leaning against the window at the corner, suddenly became quiet, looked in the direction where the sound came from, then looked at each other and walked over together.
When Robert arrived at the passage, he saw Conan, but his expression did not change. He just looked up at the man in the work clothes and said:
"Mitsui, what's going on?"
Seeing this, the man named Mitsui immediately said to Robert:
"I had just finished mowing the yard and when I came back to put my tools away, I saw this child. It seemed that he couldn't find the bathroom."
Mitsui seemed to be the gardener of the Sawamura family, so he was very respectful to Robert.
On the other side, Maori Kogoro slapped Conan on the head without any hesitation. The force was not strong, but it showed his anger:
"You little brat, why do you always like to run around?"
"sorry!!"
Conan apologized while feeling sorry that he didn't overhear what happened next.
"Mr. Maori, don't be too harsh. After all, Conan is just a child." Robert comforted Maori Kogoro, and then said to Mitsui: "Mitsui, take this child to the bathroom."
As he spoke, Robert leaned over, touched Conan's head and said, "Conan-kun, follow Uncle Mitsui this time, but remember the way clearly, and don't run around next time."
"Oh." Conan saw this and realized that he would probably not hear anything further, so he had no choice but to follow Mitsui and leave.
After Conan left, Maori Kogoro had a suspicious look on his face:
"Why does this little devil like to run around all the time?"
After muttering something, Kogoro Maori glanced at Robert and turned his head to indicate whether he wanted to continue the conversation.
At this time, Robert took out the photo from his shirt, flipped through it, and said to Maori Kogoro with a serious face:
"It seems that we need a quieter place, Mr. Maori."
As he spoke, Robert led Maori Kogoro to a prayer room with holy images, and then said to Maori Kogoro apologetically:
"Sorry, there don't seem to be many quiet occasions at home."
"It's okay, it's just a small matter."
As Kogoro Maori spoke, he looked around the small prayer room.
The prayer room is not big, about 20 square meters.
Facing the front is a statue of the Holy Child, on the right is a statue of the Virgin Mary, and hanging on the wall is a statue of the Holy Father with arms outstretched.
In front of these three holy images are two rows of church prayer chairs. The room is decorated very simply.
At this time, Robert walked to the statue, made the sign of the cross in front of him, apologized, and turned to Maori Kogoro and said:
"Because my family is not religious, I am usually the only one who goes to this small church to pray on Sundays. It is usually closed on other days."
"Everyone in the mansion is aware of this custom, so normally no one comes to disturb this place."
As he spoke, Robert gestured to Kogoro Maori to sit on the prayer chair on the side.
"That's much more convenient. At least we don't have to worry about anyone eavesdropping." Maori Kogoro nodded and said after taking a seat, "Then Sir Robert, let's get back to business."
Kogoro Mori became serious at this time.
"Although I cannot explain the specific circumstances, the gentleman your wife, Ms. Sayuri, contacted was indeed a member of the Metropolitan Police Department's secret department that was related to the Bushinshu."
"So, I think you may have some misunderstandings about Mrs. Sayuri."
"After all, if someone from that department contacts the wife of a diplomat like you, it's probably because of something unspeakable."
After saying this, Maori Kogoro hesitated for a moment, fearing that he would be involved in some conspiracy or dispute between countries, so he quickly added:
"Of course, because I have only been investigating for a short time, I cannot rule out the possibility that the lady is having an affair with another man."
He was changing the subject to the investigation of the cheating, in case Robert really said something he shouldn't hear.
"...I know what you mean."
Robert was silent for a moment, sighed, sat on the prayer bench beside him, pinched his brows and said:
"My wife has some connections with some Shinto people due to family reasons, and sometimes she helps people there solve some problems."
"I think that gentleman must have met my wife through a similar channel."
"As for the 'misunderstanding' you mentioned, Mr. Maori, it is indeed possible."
"How about this, you continue your investigation for now. After a while, I will find my wife and ask about the gentleman's situation. If it is a misunderstanding between the two parties, then it would be the best."
"It's great that you understand."
When Kogoro Maori saw that Robert did not ask why he knew all this, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
This kind of client who doesn't ask too many questions and is considerate is a good thing for his work.
"Well, since you ask me to do so, I will continue to pay attention to Madam Sayuri until the day you feel it is no longer necessary."
Hearing what Maori Kogoro said, Robert immediately smiled and said, "Thank you Mr. Maori for your understanding."
After that, he 707 paused and said, "As for the remuneration, I will give you three times the agreed amount."
"Thank you so much!" Kogoro Mouri's eyes lit up and he quickly smiled and thanked him.
Three times as much as agreed? Then he is really going to get rich this time! !
Robert just smiled when he saw his greedy look, then turned his head to look at the holy elephant, took a deep breath, and then said to Maori Kogoro:
"Mr. Maori, I think I should take some time to adjust, pray to God, and explain to Him my guilt for misunderstanding my wife."
Maori Kogoro saw Robert's expression and immediately understood that this meant that his wife had not cheated on him, so he quickly replied:
"Please go ahead and do your work. Please don't worry about me."
With that, Kogoro Maori said goodbye and left, closing the door of the prayer room. After looking at the door again, he thought for a moment, then turned and walked towards the reception room.
-
At the same time, on the ramp next to the villa.
Eriri looked at Sayuri Sawamura who was holding Luo Shu's hand, then looked at her own home which was so close, and finally couldn't help but asked:
"So, what is it that requires me to go home?"
After complaining, Eriri stared at Sayuri Sawamura's arm with dead eyes and complained:
"Besides, Luo Shu, can you please let my mother go? We have been holding each other's arms all the way, do you really think I don't exist?"
Hearing Eriri's straightforward complaints, which clearly showed that she had been holding back resentment all the way, Luo Shu couldn't help but spread out one hand and said with a strange expression:
"Blame me~".
Chapter 111 Her father is not dead yet!
Looking at Ying Lili who was as angry as a golden retriever with its hair standing on end, Luo Shu said with a bit of disgust and amusement:
"So, Eriri, are you jealous?"
"what?"
Eriri was stunned for a moment, and her golden twin ponytails seemed to dance with her owner's mood.
"I'm jealous?"
She suddenly raised her voice, then sneered and said:
"I'm jealous as hell!!"
"Do you have any sense of shame? You walked all the way with someone else's mother in your arms. I warned you, and you still said I was jealous? I'll eat your head off!"
"No matter what, holding him all the way is a bit too much, isn't it?"
Luo Shu's face turned red with embarrassment when he heard Eriri's complaints. Although he was shameless enough not to refuse, he was only held by the arm instead of hugging Sayuri Sawamura?
Sayuri Sawamura covered her mouth and laughed secretly, her eyes narrowed into crescents, and she said in the tone of an experienced person:
"Eri has finally grown up~"
"Huh?" Eriri tilted her head stupidly, then looked at Sayuri Sawamura with disdain and said, "Really, I can't understand what you're thinking anymore."
"We're almost home, why don't you let go?"
At this time, Luo Shu added: "You also know that I am being held by Sayuri, right?"
Eriri resisted the urge to roll her eyes: "Shut up, aren't you enjoying it too?"
"That's true." Luo Shu nodded, shamelessly admitting his own 'shortcomings', and added: "Honestly speaking, if you, Eriri, perfectly inherited Sayuri's strengths, then Shiyu might be worried that I'd cheat on her."
Ying Lili's face suddenly darkened, and her fists clenched involuntarily:
"I'm really sorry that I'm not like her!!"
"Hahahaha." Sayuri Sawamura couldn't help it after all. She let go of Luo Shu, turned her head and laughed out loud.
Hearing her smile, Luo Shu couldn't help but curl his lips: "Ying Lili, you actually have your merits."
"It's too late to apologize now." Ying Lili snorted, but was still prepared to listen to what Luo Shu said about the advantages.
"Knowing that you are not like Sayuri and having self-awareness is one of your few strengths."
Ying Lili moved her foot to step on Luo Shu, but the other party dodged it nimbly.
The small leather shoes hit the floor tiles with a clatter, causing Ying Lili to feel numb for a moment. Then she raised her head and looked at Luo Shu angrily with her eyes full of tears, her little fangs showing as if she wanted to bite someone:
