Looking at Kogoro Mouri whose eyes almost turned into the shape of "¥", Tang Ze had already gotten used to it.
After all, Maori Kogoro is sometimes like this...
"Bold"...
However, this "generosity" is negative, and it is even difficult to read the atmosphere, so that his own daughter sometimes feels that her father is too shameful.
Of course, Tang Ze was used to it. He had only heard of the name of Naoki Kamii, but had never had much contact with Kogoro Mori, and the corners of his mouth twitched involuntarily.
He looked at Kogoro Mori at the moment, and his worldview looked like it had been shocked.
In his opinion, as a famous detective like Detective Karasawa, Kogoro Mouri must be as good as imagined and have the "level" that a famous detective should have.
Just like the calm and wise famous detectives in novels, movies and TV shows, he seems to have no problem in the world that can defeat his confidence.
Why does it seem like he is just a money-grubbing uncle now?
However, even though he complained in his heart, since he could be on good terms with Tang Ze, there must be some things that ordinary people could not reach.
Maybe this is the style of detective Maori Kogoro...
Naoki Kamii suppressed his complaints and finally left Soho Akako's room with the two of them.
After leaving the room, the three did not go back directly, but went to the entertainment room to meet up with everyone.
At this time, the three men of Katagiri were playing billiards, while Ayako and Xiaolan were sitting aside playing chess, Conan was receiving divination from a fortune teller, and the two maids were busy adding tea to the group.
"Ah, Miss Nagara, you're here!"
Maori Kogoro saw Nagara Haruka who was fortune-telling and lifted Conan up from the stool. He said to Conan with disdain: "What's the point of fortune-telling for a child? Just have fun."
After saying that, Maori Kogoro sat on it without any hesitation, turned his head and said with a flattering smile: "I wonder if you can help me with divination!?"
"Of course no problem." Nagara Haruka smiled and looked at Conan and said, "You drew an upright 'Wheel of Fortune'.
This can be interpreted as luck, a changing situation, an unpredictable future, etc., but in any case, it tends to be good luck, so don't worry."
"Oh...thank you, sister!" After thanking the other party, Conan looked at Mouri Kogoro unhappily, and then ran to Xiaolan to watch the battle.
Tang Ze originally had no plans to play anything, but Kamii Naoki was indeed interested in darts and insisted on dragging Tang Ze to play with him.
Although Tang Ze refused at first, Mr. Katagiri, who had temporarily left the court after the billiards game, joined in the persuasion. For the sake of face, Tang Ze had to agree to play darts with the two of them.
As for the ending, the two unanimously decided to exclude Tang Ze from the competition and choose to fight each other with the weaklings.
With a helpless smile, Tang Ze saw Nagara Haruka checking the cards that Maori Kogoro had drawn, so he walked over to watch the fun.
Tarot divination is something that you can believe in or not, but it's good to take a look at it.
"Well, Mr. Maori is also very lucky." Nagarahara analyzed the cards and said, "This year will also be a great opportunity for you to create a new situation.
I believe you will be able to achieve great success in your career."
"Creating a new situation..." Kogoro Mouri couldn't help but feel excited after hearing what Nagahara Haruka said.
"Then Mr. Maori, would you like to come to our company and be a singer?"
Meanwhile, Inaba Kazuyo, who seemed to have become a different person after drinking, came over and bumped into Kogoro Maori's shoulder. "If that famous detective, Detective Maori, were to open his mouth, it would definitely cause a sensation!"
"In that case, I'll sing a song now!"
Kogoro Mouri, who had drunk a lot of alcohol, was also a person who liked to act like an entertainer. When someone instigated him, he didn't know what embarrassment was. He stood up, holding the wine glass as a microphone, and planned to sing a song on the spot.
Seeing this, Karasawa on the side immediately wanted to stop Kogoro Mouri, but before he could open his mouth, the two maids on the side looked at the clock and suddenly spoke.
"I'm sorry to interrupt your fun!"
"Dear guests, over the years, this mansion has a tradition of locking the 'Masque Hall' at midnight."
"Once the Mask Hall is locked, it will no longer be possible to go back and forth between the West Wing and the East Wing."
"Therefore, we must ask everyone to return to their rooms and rest before this. We hope you can cooperate..."
The twin sisters informed everyone to return to their rooms one after another, and everyone stopped what they were doing after hearing that.
"What..." Maori Kogoro, who collapsed again, scratched his head and said, "It's only twelve o'clock, but it's just getting dark..."
"Excuse me, this 'Masque Room' must be locked at 12 o'clock. Is there a reason for this?"
As a child, Conan pretended to be curious and looked at the twin sisters and asked.
"That's right. Xiaobul's mask has always been fond of playing pranks, so as soon as it gets past midnight, he will run out of the "Mask Hall" without permission to play."
"To prevent them from causing trouble, we must lock the Mask Room."
"Jane, that's simply nonsense..."
Hearing what the two sisters said, Matsudaira Mamoru couldn't help but deny it out loud, but from his panicked words, it could be heard that he was obviously a little scared.
“This is true!”
The two sisters turned their heads together, and Shimokasa Minaho said, "Every time I wait until dawn and enter the 'Mask Hall' again, I find that the masks are tilted left and right..."
Shimokasa Honami continued, "Otherwise, it will just fall to the ground. This has happened a lot so far."
After explaining, the two sisters looked at everyone and said in unison, "So based on the above reasons, please start preparing to go back to your rooms and rest."
"Haha... this is really weird..." Naoki Kamii couldn't help but twitch his lips as he looked at the twin sisters.
Coincidentally, Conan on the side also looked at the twin maids with the same expression in silence. As a staunch materialist, Conan would never believe these nonsense.
Of course, since you are on someone else's territory, you naturally have to give face to the owner and follow the rules.
After greeting each other and saying goodbye, everyone walked towards the east and west wing rooms respectively.
After everyone returned to the east and west wings from the "Mask Hall", the twin maids went to the doors on the east and west sides, took out their keys and locked them.
The second hand made another full circle, pushing the minute hand to the "XII" mark on the clock. The next moment, a dull but slightly eerie bell rang slowly, reaching every corner of the mansion and everyone's ears.
