Kogoro pretending to be Hercule Poirot.

Kogoro Mouri (毛利 小五郎 Mōri Kogorō?), known as Richard Moore in the FUNimation dub, is a main protagonist of the Detective Conan manga and anime. He is a private detective and Ran Mouri's father. Once a former police detective in the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department, he retired a few years prior to the timeline to become a full-time private investigator, opening Mouri Detective Agency in Beika Town, which doubles as the Mouri family's home. He currently raises his daughter as a single father, after becoming estranged from his wife Eri Kisaki, a first-class lawyer. While struggling to maintain his agency successful, he reluctantly takes in a shrunken Shinichi Kudo, who presents himself as Conan Edogawa, after Ran's insistence. Conan's presence in the household would however prove useful, as Conan uses his Stun-Gun Wristwatch to solve many cases using Kogoro's voice. He thus becomes famous as the "sleeping Kogoro" and is regularly relied upon by the police whenever there is a case they cannot crack. While Kogoro is a skillful martial artist and marksman, he is, on the other hand, a heavy smoker and a drunkard, and is known for flirting with other women while still being married. His lazy character makes many doubt his actual investigative abilities, but when his close relatives are the ones at stake, he can manage to solve tough cases by himself. Read more...
