Koizumi stood in front of a signboard of a building, looking for the name on the piece of paper in his hand.

She asked Kurofuji Kisaburo for a list of lawyers, requiring that the lawyers must be women and have family members or relatives who are police officers.

For this guy who is well-connected in both the black and white worlds, it is not too easy to make a list.

Kurofuji Kizo made a phone call on the spot, and someone sent the list over within half an hour.

There are not many people who meet Koizumi's requirements, only three on the list.

Kurofuji Kizo was very confused about Koizumi's criteria for finding a lawyer, but Koizumi was too lazy to explain to him. He insisted on the principle of use and throw away the lawyer and directly drove the person away.

In fact, people who are familiar with Detective Conan will probably know who Koizumi is looking for as soon as they hear it.

Koizumi softly read out the name on the water sign: "...Fei Law Firm, found it."

"Sister, are you looking for Auntie Hibiki?"

Koizumi looked down in the direction of the voice and saw three radish-headed girls at her feet looking up at her. The one who was speaking was the little boy standing in the middle of the three people.

Conan without glasses, oh no, the real elementary school student Kudo Shinichi.

The two little girls behind him are holding hands. The timid one with horns on her head is obviously Mouri Ran, and the other one with a bold headband is undoubtedly Suzuki Sonoko.

Oh, they are all so cute!

Koizumi squatted down and said with a smile: "Yes, I have something I want to entrust to lawyer Fei. Do you know her?"

"Yes!" Kudo Shinichi nodded, he turned his head and glanced at Mao Lilan, "Auntie Kisaki Eri is Xiaolan's mother."

"Oh, really? That's quite a coincidence."

Koizumi looked at Mao Lilan and nodded to her: "Let me introduce myself. My name is Sakurai Izumi. What should I call you?"

"My name is Kudo Shinichi."

Mmm, I’ve heard so much about you!

"My name is Suzuki Sonoko."

Wow, such a lively voice.

"I, I'm Mao Lilan..."

Hmm, why is your voice getting lower and lower the more you speak? Are you so shy?

Koizumi greeted them with a smile, and even shook hands with Kudo Shinichi formally: "Three little friends, nice to meet you."

Because she was treated seriously like an adult, Kudo Shinichi's affection for Koizumi immediately soared, and he said he could take her to Kisaki Eri's office.

But unfortunately, Kisaki Eri was not there.

As soon as Kisaki Eri's assistant saw the three little kids, he looked like he had a headache.

When the man saw that Koizumi was brought by three children, he locked the four people into the same conference room without saying anything and told Koizumi to wait there and that he would notify Kisaki Eri when she came back. The meaning was obvious, that is, to let Koizumi help look after the children.

Both girls behaved very quietly, so the only one who gave the assistant a headache was Kudo Shinichi.

As expected, little Kudo climbed onto the chair, his two short legs swaying restlessly back and forth, and he complained very dissatisfiedly: "Really, I thought I could see some interesting files, but I was locked up here again."

He rested his hands on his head and glanced at Mao Lilan, saying, "I thought I could move freely with Xiaolan, but the result is still the same."

I don’t know if it’s because an outsider like Koizumi is present, but Mao Lilan is still timid and doesn’t say anything.

Suzuki Sonoko grabbed Xiaolan's hand and snorted, "We should have gone to the library, but you insisted on coming here! Are we going to sit here all afternoon? It's so boring!"

Kudo Shinichi looked at Koizumi, rolled his eyes, and said with a smile: "Aunt Sakurai, you must have something to ask Aunt Kisaki Eri, right? What is it? Can you tell me first?"

Koizumi: ...

He looked at Kudo Shinichi with a kind face: "What did you call me?"

Little Kudo: ...

Why does this aunt have such a scary expression like Xiaolan's mother? So scary!

He hesitated for a moment and stammered, "Sakura, Sakurai sister..."

Koizumi nodded with satisfaction and said with a smile: "You are still a child, I can't tell you about my affairs."

"what the hell!"

Kudo Shinichi showed his classic half-moon eyes and complained unhappily: "I'm already in the fourth grade, I'm not a child anymore!"

Xiaoquan thought about it and said with a smile: "How about this, you play a little game with me, and if you can beat me, I will tell you."

Little Kudo suddenly perked up, jumped off the chair, ran over and made a pinky promise with her: "It's a deal! Don't regret it!"

"Yes. Your two friends can also help. It will count if either of you beats me."

Kudo Shinichi's eyes sparkled: "You said it! Hey, Xiaolan, Sonoko, come here quickly!"

The two girls also came over with interest.

Koizumi reached into his pocket and took out a five-yen coin. He looked at the three children and asked with a smile, "Who will go first?"

Kudo Shinichi immediately shouted: "Me!"

Koizumi nodded.

She threw the coin into the air, then grabbed the coin with both hands, and stretched out her two fists in front of the little Kudo: "Come on, guess which hand the coin is in?"

"That's it!"

Kudo Shinichi didn't expect it to be such a simple game and was a little disappointed.

He said weakly like a deflated ball: "Auntie Sakurai... Sister Sakurai, your hand speed is not fast enough. I saw it all just now."

Koizumi raised his fist unmoved: "So, in which hand is the coin?"

"Left hand!"

Koizumi unclenched his fists and said, "Ah, sorry, I guessed wrong."

Little Kudo looked over hurriedly and saw that the coin was indeed in the palm of Sakurai's right hand.

He scratched his head: "Come again!"

Koizumi smiled: "Okay."

Guess, try your best. This five-yen coin is the one I put in the storage space. I can take it out and put it away as I please. As long as I want, you will never guess it right! Hahahaha!

When Eri Kisaki returned to the office, she heard the child's cry.

She said helplessly to the woman following behind her: "See, your brat really came to me again."

Kudo Yukiko could only smile and say, "I'm so sorry, Eri. This kid has always liked reasoning games. Ever since he knew your profession, he has been convinced that he can help you solve the case. No matter what Yusaku and I say to him, he won't listen."

As he was speaking, he heard the voices of two girls coming from the conference room.

"The left side, it must be the left side this time!"

"No, Sonoko, I feel like it must be the right side this time!"

Kisaki Eri: "Huh? Ran and Sonoko are here too. Didn't they say they were going to the library?"

Kudo Yukiko said helplessly: "He must have been brought here by Shinichi's brat."

The two listened for a while at the door of the conference room.

"Left! No, right!"

"Ahhh! How can it still be wrong!"

"Shinichi you idiot! I told you it must be on the right!"

"Kudo, get out of the way! Xiaolan, you guess!"

"right!"

Hibiki Eri was surprised: "How could Xiaolan speak so loudly? This child is too introverted, I have always been worried. I didn't expect..."

Kudo Yukiko was also very surprised.

Her Shinichi was a child who was a little too smart, had a cocky personality, was a little smart, and never willing to suffer any loss. When had she ever seen him so angry?

The two looked at each other, both extremely curious about what was happening inside!

How about taking a sneak peek?

Eri Kisaki and Yukiko Kudo exchanged glances, and in tacit understanding, they gently pushed the door of the conference room open a crack and looked inside.

A woman with a short ponytail was sitting in a chair with her back to them. Three children gathered around her and were concentrating on their studies. They didn't notice that someone was peeking at the door.

Before they could figure out what was going on, the girl with short ponytail suddenly turned around and her eyes met the eyes of the two peepers.

Because she has a husband who is a detective, under his influence, Kisaki Eri is more perceptive. The moment her eyes met, Kisaki Eri saw the vigilance in the other person's eyes.

What kind of job does this woman have? She's so sensitive. They didn't make any sound, but she noticed them immediately? Is she also a police officer?

Seeing the two people at the door clearly, Koizumi put away the coins, smiled and said to the three children: "Okay, time is up, the game is over."

The three children still didn't see anyone outside the door and kept yelling.

"Eh?! Why is this happening?!"

"No, no! I haven't guessed it right once!"

Although Mao Lilan didn't say anything, she was also expectant, her face flushed, and she tried hard to nod and agree with her friends.

"Cough cough!"

Kudo Yukiko pushed the door open and walked in: "Shinichi, why are you here again? Didn't I tell you not to come to Eiri's office without permission?"

Only then did the children realize that their parents had arrived.

Kudo Shinichi's eyes lit up, and he ran over, grabbed his mother's hand and dragged her towards Koizumi: "Mom, you guess!"

At this time, Kudo had completely forgotten his original intention of playing the game, and his mind was filled with a strong desire to win.

Kudo Yukiko smiled awkwardly at Koizumi: "Hello, I am the mother of this child. Nice to meet you."

Koizumi returned the greeting, then hesitantly asked, "Um, are you an actor?"

Kudo Yukiko smiled and said, "I was indeed an actor before."

Koizumi said in surprise: "You are indeed Fujimine Yukiko!"

"Oh, that's all in the past. I've changed my name to Kudo Yukiko now, and this naughty boy is my son."

On the other side, Mouri Ran and Suzuki Sonoko ran to Kisaki Eri.

Looking at her daughter's rare energetic appearance, Kisaki Eri touched her head with satisfaction and felt a little more favorable towards Koizumi.

When Kisaki Eri invited Koizumi into the office for a private chat, Kudo Shinichi then remembered why he wanted to play the coin guessing game. However, he lost the game, and according to the agreement, he could not listen to Koizumi's story, so he could only stay outside the office indignantly.

Xiaolan and Sonoko were still excited and kept chattering around Kudo Yukiko.

Little Kudo turned his head and looked over there, but ultimately couldn't overcome his curiosity. He sneaked to the door of Kisaki Eri's office, tilted his head and put his ear close to it.

The door opened suddenly.

Kudo Shinichi lost his balance and fell to the ground. When he looked up, he saw Koizumi standing inside the door, looking at him with a smile.

"Ahahaha, I wasn't eavesdropping, I was just learning how to dance like a panda!"

It's so stupid, it's unbearable to watch!

Yukiko Kudo hurried over and brought her son back to her side, smiling apologetically at Koizumi.

Koizumi didn't say anything, just gave her a chuckle and closed the door again.

Fei Yingli asked in surprise: "How did you know that boy would come and eavesdrop?"

I heard it.

Koizumi smiled and said, "Given the kid's unyielding character, it's normal to guess what he will do."

"Too."

Kisaki Eri smiled and adjusted herself to work mode: "Now let's talk about your commission."
