"Uh-huh!" Conan nodded, looked towards Chi Feichei who put down the map and started flipping through his Mobile Phone again, and asked doubtfully, "But Brother Chi, why did you mark the address and date on the map? Even with this information, we can't be sure which councilor's secret account this is, right?"
"I want to find the one who lost the Mobile Phone first..." Chi Feichei said, flipping the Mobile Phone in his hand to let Enomoto Azusa see the content on the Phone Screen, "Is it this one?"
He remembered that this incident was a secret account incident. The one who traded with that Glasses Man was Baishō Shūhei's person, who was also the councilor being promoted by that propaganda car that just passed by. However, the other one was still unclear.
Since he was idle anyway, he might as well dig a little deeper.
On the Phone Screen was a report of a press conference, with a photo of a Glasses Man who was wearing Glasses and looked a bit fat.
"That's him, that's him!" Enomoto Azusa recognized him at a glance.
"It's him, so he's a Reporter..." Miyamoto Yumi also nodded in confirmation, curiously looking at the map over there, "But Mr. Chi is really amazing, can he find out his identity like this?"
"Because that person also exposed his own identity information when recording other people's secret accounts," Conan Realize, helping to explain, "The recording started on October 23rd, so there must be some reason that made that Uncle with Glasses start Tracking and investigation. It was also Said before that even eating alone requires an invoice. He might be a Employee on a business trip, an Individual Business Owner, a Police Officer performing Surveillance Task, a Reporter, or a Detective. If Police Officer Yumi can't determine the other party's identity, then it won't be a Police Officer. It's difficult for a Employee on a business trip to stay in Tokyo for so long to Tracking and investigate someone. Of course, he may have Resignation to focus on investigation, but unless he is very confident in his Ability and is in urgent need of a large sum of Money, he would not give up his job to investigate these things, right? It's even less necessary for Individual Business Owners to Leave their own business to investigate a Matter that is uncertain whether it can be investigated clearly and is very dangerous..."
"The Possibility of the other party being a Detective or a Reporter is Better. These two types of people are more Experience in Tracking and investigation. The other party did not Sense his investigation, which also proves that his Ability is indeed good, and these two types of people also have Opportunity or Time to run around."
"If he is a Detective, then the Opportunity for him to start investigation could be a Commission or passing by. If he is a Reporter, then the Opportunity may be an unintentional Discovery during an Interview or Tracking and investigation of other Matters," Conan Said, the Lens on one side of his Glasses began to Reflection, and a smile also appeared on the corner of his mouth, "There was a Report about Shizawa Production pollution on October 22nd last year, which was an Interview Report about the Manager."
"Check the Newspaper Company that Reported it, and the Name of the Reporter who was responsible for the Interview at that time," Chi Feichei took over the Words, Confirm Conan's Speculation was Correct, "Then check that Reporter, and there will be News and Activity information about him."
"If it's not that Reporter, you can also filter the Reports during that Time, or the Incident that happened at several Key addresses and Dates. No Matter what, there will always be Spider Silk and Horse Tracks to follow!" Conan Said with certainty, feeling in his Heart that the Information in this Era is really Unsafe. If you encounter someone like Chi Feichei or a Detective with Ability, you can Track and investigate all the way down by catching a little Trace.
"Then what about the target of his Extortion?" Miyamoto Yumi Asked with Expectation, "Who is that Fellow who Election Bribery?"
Chi Feichei: "..."
There is currently no Clue pointing to Baishō Shūhei.
Conan: "..."
This still needs to be investigated further...
Miyamoto Yumi saw that the two of them were Silence, Understood, and Said with some disappointment, "There are no Clues yet, right? Also Correct, I'm too impatient..."
"Police Officer Yumi can Call to Ask the Telecom Company," Conan reminded, "If the other party Called but did not find the Mobile Phone, maybe they will Call the Telecom Company to Ask about the Registration Location or Registrant Information of this SIM Card. We can Call to Ask the Telecom Company whether anyone Called the Telecom Company to Ask about these things on the Day Sister Azusa received the Phone Call."
"Can you find this out by Calling the Telecom Company?" Enomoto Azusa Asked curiously.
"No, they won't Say it," Miyamoto Yumi took out her Mobile Phone, "Unless it's a Police case, otherwise they will not casually reveal this Information, but coincidentally, I had Intersection with people from the Telecom Company when I went to investigate before. If I Call over, they Should be able to tell us if anyone Called them that Day to Ask similar Questions."
"If the other party knows that the Telecom Company will not reveal Customer Information to Others, then they won't Call, right?" Sawada Hiroki raised a Question.
"No, in desperation, the other party is very Possible to Try, thinking about Whether or Not they can persuade the Staff of the Telecom Company to tell them the Information," Conan Look Towards Chi Feichei, "Many people will do this, even if it's Brother Chi..."
Chi Feichei Silence Look at Conan.
Sorry, he wouldn't, and couldn't understand this Behavior either.
Knowing that people's Work has a Confidentiality System, why still hold on to Luck Mentality and Call to Ask? Can't you investigate from other Directions?
Conan met Chi Feichei's Calm Line of Sight and choked.
He Seemingly knew Chi Feichei's Answer - wouldn't Call.
But not everyone is such a Calm Big Shot, Okay? In desperation, it's Normal to want to Try your Luck...
Miyamoto Yumi Called the Telecom Company to Ask about the Situation. From the Day Before Yesterday to Yesterday, three people had Called the Telecom Company and Specially Asked about the address of a certain Number.
One was wanting to go to a Company Interview, but forgot the Paper with the Interview Address at Home. Worried that the Interviewer would not be Okay if they knew about this Matter, they Called the Telecom Company, provided the Phone of the Interview Company, and wanted the Telecom Company to Help check the Company Address.
One was that their Daughter had Run Away From Home, and the person who answered the Phone Call wanted to know where the Number their Daughter was using was located.
Another one Said that they met a person during Travel, and the other party Helped him a lot. As a result, the other party mistakenly put the Mobile Phone in his Suitcase. They wanted to Say thank you and By the Way return the Mobile Phone to the other party, so they wanted to know the other party's Address.
"That Should be the last one," Conan Said, "There are Weird Places in the Statement."
"I also think so, so I Specially Asked about the Number of this Phone Call," Miyamoto Yumi Said, "But they Said that they Originally Intention to refuse, so they didn't Record it and already don't remember it. But those three Phone Calls Seemingly were all Made from Outside, not from their own Home..."
"Outside?" Conan Seize the Key Point.
"One person Made it at 'Colombo Restaurant' yesterday evening, one person Made it from Mihua Station Platform 3 the Day Before Yesterday Night, and another one Made it at the sporting goods Shop 'Apollo' at noon yesterday. They also don't remember when and where exactly they Said they were looking for someone they met by chance during Travel," Miyamoto Yumi recalled, "In addition, they Said that although they refused the other party all three times, all three Phone Calls were actively hung up by the other party, Seemingly because there was a very loud Sound that drowned out the Sound of the Phone Call, but that Sound was only a Moment before it was hung up by those three people, so they couldn't Confirm what that Sound was..."
"Then Whether or Not to Call those three Places again to Ask?" Conan Asked.
Miyamoto Yumi started to Call to Ask about Matters again.
First of all, it was the Public Phone at Mihua Station Platform 3. The Management personnel had an Impression of the person who Made the Phone Call at that time, Saying that it was a Middle-aged Man wearing a high-end Trench Coat and being Careful. Recently, they often saw that person near the Platform, and the very loud Sound was Indeed there, which was the Radio that notified Passengers of the Train's arrival and Preparation to Get On The Bus at the Platform every once in a while.
Afterwards, it was the sporting goods Shop named 'Apollo'. The Shop Assistant who answered the Phone Call expressed that someone did come to Receive a Phone Call at noon yesterday. It was a Middle-aged Man with a crew cut and wearing a Suit. Seemingly, his Mobile Phone was out of Electricity, so he borrowed their Phone. As for the very loud Sound nearby, it was the Construction Noise of the Bank opposite the Shop. From a week ago, there would be intermittent Construction Work Sound every noon.
Finally, it was Colombo Restaurant. The Shop Assistant who answered the Phone Call expressed that they remembered. It was a Middle-aged Man wearing light-colored Sunglasses and not very talkative. Because the other party did not bring Small Change, they also asked them to exchange Small Change to pay for the Phone Bill, so they had a Deep Impression. As for the huge Sound nearby...
The Shop Assistant immediately expressed, "Our Place is famous for being a Quiet Road, how could there be that kind of..."
"Good afternoon, Citizens! I am Baishō Shūhei..."
The Speaker Sound of the propaganda car came from Miyamoto Yumi's Phone, and even Conan, Chi Feichei, Enomoto Azusa, and Sawada Hiroki next to her could hear it clearly.
The slap in the Face came too suddenly. There was a Moment of Silence on the other end of the Phone before the Shop Assistant Said awkwardly, "Oh right, oh right, there have been Election propaganda cars passing by at noon and in the evening Recently, and the Speaker Sound is quite loud..."
"Colombo." Chi Feichei suddenly Speak Out.
"Ah?" Miyamoto Yumi Be Stunned, hurriedly explained to the Shop Assistant over there to Let Them Confidentiality, and then Asked doubtfully, "Isn't it the sporting goods Shop called Apollo? Apollo and Poirot Pronunciation are very similar, maybe that Reporter misremembered it and Said Apollo to the other party, which led to the other party going to the wrong Location and not getting this Mobile Phone."
"Colombo is also a Detective." Chi Feichei Said.
"Colombo Restaurant is also in 5-chome. If that Reporter only remembers eating in a Shop in 5-chome whose Name is Detective, maybe they will confuse Colombo Restaurant and Poirot Cafe, and there will be propaganda cars passing by over there. This Matter is related to the Election black project, and the other party may be Worry about being associated with a certain Councilor, so they hung up the Phone Call in a hurry, right?" Conan smiled confidently at the corner of his Mouth, Get Up, Turn Head and Ask Chi Feichei, "Brother Chi, Whether or Not we should go to Colombo Restaurant to Check? Maybe we can meet that person. If the other party has not received the Mobile Phone, there is a high Possibility that they will repeatedly go to Colombo Restaurant."
Chi Feichei Nod, "We can By the Way go for Dinner."
However, sitting directly in Poirot Cafe until noon, they could eat something more at Poirot and then stroll over along the Road...
(End of Chapter)
Chapter 941: Is the Boss Playing Urban Bungee Jumping?
In the afternoon, Enomoto Azusa directly took leave, bringing her mobile phone and going with a group of people to Colombo Restaurant.
Chi Feichei again used an anti-loss rope to handcuff himself and Sawada Hiroki together, walking and strolling with the kid all the way there.
Miyamoto Yumi saw Chi Feichei taking Sawada Hiroki to buy snacks Streetside, stopped and waited Roadside, stroking her chin and muttering, "So, not an Illegitimate Child after all..."
"Illegitimate Child?" Enomoto Azusa asked in surprise.
"That's what I originally thought," Miyamoto Yumi leaned closer to Enomoto Azusa, gossiping in a low voice, "Although Mr. Chi often brings Conan and seems to like Children, a one or two-year-old Child is different from a seven or eight-year-old Child. Taking care of a one or two-year-old Child is much more Troublesome. He doesn't seem like someone who would Help take care of Children for others, so that Child must have a Relationship with him. And Mr. Mouri and his wife have been separated for a long Time, and I haven't heard that they have a Baby. Mr. Chi's Parents have also been separated for a long Time. I was wondering if that Child might be Mr. Chi's Illegitimate Child..."
Conan, with Half-Moon Eyes, eavesdropped Aside.
He thought Police Officer Yumi had changed her personality today, but Unexpectedly, she was still so gossipy, comparable to Sonoko.
Enomoto Azusa sweated, "But, Mr. Chi is unmarried, there's no need to not Public the Child's existence, right? Moreover, Even If it's an Illegitimate Child, that Child should Call Mr. Chi Father, right?"
"Yeah, Children don't Care about So Many things, so I also feel it's not like that," Miyamoto Yumi glanced sideways at Chi Feichei over there, who was taking the Child to buy snacks, Speechless, "Besides, this isn't a very crowded Road, and Mr. Chi still uses a Rope, it's obviously to be lazy and not want to bother paying attention to where the Child walks!"
Enomoto Azusa thought for a moment, also feeling sorry for Xiao Shu, being strolled like a Pet by someone. She nodded with a serious Face, and after Chi Feichei and Sawada Hiroki came back, she tried to carry Sawada Hiroki, but was refused...
Walking and strolling all the way, when they arrived at Colombo Restaurant, Sawada Hiroki was already holding a large pile of Snacks.
Miyamoto Yumi joined the Queue of 'worrying that this Child won't survive three days in Chi Feichei's hands', helplessly reminding, "Mr. Chi, is it really okay to let such a young Child eat Snacks?"
"I intend to give them to others as Gifts," Sawada Hiroki Say.
"Xiao Shu speaks very clearly," Enomoto Azusa's maternal instincts overflowed, Smilingly Say, "So amazing!"
Enomoto Azusa Gain a Snack Gift Pack from Sawada Hiroki!
Miyamoto Yumi just wanted to tease Sawada Hiroki, and also Gain a Snack Gift Pack!
Sawada Hiroki, based on the spirit of 'finders keepers', also didn't forget the remaining Female Police Officer and Conan.
Over here, they were distributing Snacks, happily saying thanks, interacting harmoniously, and the Shopkeeper of Colombo stood for a while before looking at Miyamoto Yumi in Police Uniform and Speak Out, "Excuse me..."
Excuse me, are the Police Officer here for official business? Or to eat?
Miyamoto Yumi then remembered there was still Serious Business, explained to the Shopkeeper that she was the Police Officer who had Call Before, and asked the Shopkeeper to Help identify the person who borrowed the Phone Call yesterday evening.
Just After Saying this, the Bell at the Entrance of the Shop rang.
The Shopkeeper looked up and quickly Say in a low voice, "It's that Guest!"
Conan Turn Head to Look, it was Indeed a Middle-aged Man wearing light-colored Sunglasses, and behind the Other Party was also a burly man who looked a bit fierce.
Due To having notified Police from other Departments to Search Command the Reporter's Home Before, and Miyamoto Yumi had confirmed by Phone Call that they had already Searched for the Account Book Copy there, she directly Step Forward and took the Man away.
Chi Feichei stayed to eat with Conan and Sawada Hiroki, and also Call Enomoto Azusa, and made a Phone Call to Mouri Kogoro, Mouri Ran, Doctor Agasa, and Haibara Ai.
A Group of People gathered at a large Table.
After the Meal, Haibara Ai took her mobile phone to ask for Enomoto Azusa's Contact Information.
She almost missed a Female who Brother Hichiji could contact many times, she must add her!
"Going to attend a Banquet tomorrow Night?" Doctor Agasa was chatting with Chi Feichei, "Then Ai..."
"Sorry, I'm not going," Haibara Ai Say while Turning Head, continuing to add Enomoto Azusa as a UL Friend.
"I Seemingly heard Sonoko mention it, but what about Xiao Shu? He's still too young, going to that kind of Place will be very boring, and Brother Hichiji won't be convenient to take care of Children then, right?" Mouri Ran Look at the little Child who was lying on Chi Feichei's lap and Yawn, "My Training Camp Activity tomorrow will end a A Bit earlier..."
Mouri Kogoro drank until his Face was flushed, "You're not Intention to bring another Kid Home, are you?"
"What's wrong with that, Just Helping to take care of him for one Night," Mouri Ran glanced at Mori Kogoro, "And Brother Hichiji..."
Mouri Kogoro instantly Realized that the Commission he was still busy with was introduced by Chi Feichei, and the Reward was a lot. Then he Realized again that Chi Feichei had also Helped take care of Conan today, and then Realized again that he had eaten a Meal from Chi Feichei tonight. He immediately had no Idea of complaining, "Cough, listen to me, I agree! It will be more lively at Home this way!"
"R-Really?" Mouri Ran was a little embarrassed, "I thought Father you wouldn't want to..."
"How is that Possibility," Mouri Kogoro pretended to be dissatisfied, "Really, is your Old Dad the kind of person who wouldn't even Help with a little favor?"
"Sorry, Sorry," Mouri Ran Say with a smile to coax him, "Don't be angry!"
"I can also Help take care of him," Doctor Agasa smiled at Chi Feichei, "Although I don't quite understand how to take care of such a young Child, but Xiao Shu is so well-behaved, it should be easy to take care of him, and Ai is also here..."
"No Need, No Need," Mouri Kogoro immediately Say, "I'm Hissashi's Teacher, it's Should for me to Help him take care of a Kid, Doctor Agasa, you don't need to compete with me."
He had to strive for this Opportunity, Otherwise, he would owe Chi Feichei too much, and he would be embarrassed to complain about his Disciple Kuroki Jiro in the future, how could that be okay!
...
The next day.
Chi Feichei got up early.
Sawada Hiroki, who was sleeping on the small Bed Next Door, opened his Eyes in a daze, "Godfather, good morning..."
"It's not dawn yet, you sleep," Chi Feichei took out his mobile phone to Check the Date, and Discovery that it was already late spring, and did not take a Coat to put on, "I'm going for Morning Exercise, I'll make Breakfast when I come back and Call you, If you wake up first, you can Call Xiao Mei to Keep Company with you."
Sawada Hiroki raised his Hand to rub his Eyes, "I'll go too."
"Your little Body is not Suitable for Morning Exercise," Chi Feichei went out of the Room, "Go to the Living Room and crawl by Oneself."
Sawada Hiroki: "..."
He felt insulted!
But such a young Child's Body is Indeed prone to sleepiness. This kind of Life where he doesn't need to code, doesn't need to be awake in the Internet day and Night, and can enjoy the Joy of Sleep, is a waste not to sleep.
He, Choice to sleep.
Nearby Building, Yingqu Yan Nan also rarely got up early, cooking Breakfast in the Kitchen, waiting boredly, and conveniently took Binoculars to Observation the Outside from the Kitchen Window, preparing to Check the Situation Nearby.
The sky was not yet fully bright, the Outside was dim and blurry, he could See the Rooftop of the five-story Shopping Mall Next Door, and further Outside, was the Apartment where his Boss lived, separated from the Shopping Mall by a quiet Path...
Yingqu Yan Nan used Binoculars to Look at both ends of the Path, and after Discovery there were no Suspicious Person, he put down the Binoculars.
His Boss must not be awake yet.
People in the Organization are all Night Owls, maybe they just Intention to Sleep at this Point, there are not many people who get up early like him.
Moreover, what is facing his Kitchen Window from his Boss's side is a Bedroom. Except for the lights being on once a few days ago, it has been Pitch Black at other Times.
He doesn't dare to Say or Ask about the specific Situation. If his Boss Discovery that he would pay attention to his Boss's Window when he was okay, his Crazy Cat Boss would not know what terrible things he would do...
Yingqu Yan Nan was frantically Teasing in his Heart, Seeing that the Breakfast was not cooked yet, he Turn Head to Look, and Discovery that the lights in the Bedroom on the 11th Floor of the Building over there were on, and there Seemingly was a Black Shadow standing Windowside opening the Window.
The next second, that Black Shadow Leap down from the Window.
Wait, that Seemingly is his Boss's Home?
Yingqu Yan Nan picked up the Binoculars to Look over, and Discovery that the House over there was Indeed lit up, the Window was Indeed open, and a Climbing Rope was hanging Outside the Window. The Figure Just Now Should not be jumping off a Building to Suicide.
Turning the Binoculars to the Path Below, silently Observation.
Although most of the Field of Vision was blocked by the Shopping Mall, he could still See both sides of the Road clearly. If someone jumped off a Building at the Boss's Home or the Boss forced someone to jump off a Building, then he would Go To Help deal with the Corpse or catch people.
Encountering such a Boss, he had to be prepared for a rich and colorful Work content!
Half a minute later, no Figure fled on the Road. He watched with his own Eyes as his Boss's Figure slowly rose into the air from the Blind Spot of Field of Vision Behind the Shopping Mall, and was dragged up to the 11th Floor by the automatically retracting Climbing Rope.
Then, his Boss jumped down from the Window again.
Then, his Boss was pulled back to the 11th Floor by the Rope again.
Then again, his Boss jumped down from the Window again.
Then again and again...
Yingqu Yan Nan saw Chi Feichei pulling the Rope up to the 11th Floor for the sixth Time, and Discovery that his Boss finally sat on the Window Sill and began to untie the Rope around his Waist, Seemingly having jumped enough. Speechless, he took out a Cigarette and bit it, lit it.
Early in the morning, is his Boss playing urban bungee jumping?
Up, down, up, down, up...
In the Field of Vision of the Binoculars, the Black Shadow at the Opposite Window jumped down again.
Yingqu Yan Nan put away the Lighter and Look over, and Suddenly Discovery that the Rope Ring was still retracted on the Window Sill, but the person was gone. The Cigarette he had Just Now lit failed to bite, and with a 'slap', it brushed past his Hem and fell on the Ground.
(O)
His Boss played urban bungee jumping, but forgot to tie the Rope?
Wrong, Wrong, did the Boss not sit firmly when retracting the Rope and fall from the Window Sill?
Stunned for five or six seconds, Yingqu Yan Nan came back to his senses and quickly took out his mobile phone to Call Chi Feichei.
The Bell rang once and was answered.
Over there, the young Man's voice was Still calm, "What are you Looking at me for so early in the morning instead of sleeping?"
Yingqu Yan Nan: "..."
As Expected, he was Discovery.
However, shouldn't he Ask the Boss first, 'What are you doing jumping off a Building so early in the morning?'
"Cough, I Just went to the Kitchen to make Breakfast, and conveniently Observation the Situation Nearby, and accidentally saw you jumping Downstairs," Yingqu Yan Nan explained, Realized that Chi Feichei Seemingly forgot to tie the Rope the last Time he jumped down, "Are you okay?"
"I'm fine, are you making a lot of Breakfast?"
"Ah? I prepared a lot..."
"Then open the Access Control on the First Floor for me, wait for me for 5 minutes."
"Okay."
"Beep beep..."
Yingqu Yan Nan put down his mobile phone, Stare at the page showing 'Call ended' for two seconds, then put away his mobile phone and went to the Living Room to Help open the Access Control.
He, a steady Man, must get used to his Crazy Cat Boss's confusing Behavior.
[The update was originally scheduled for yesterday, but due to the 'Orange Cat at Home is Madly Demanding Coded Words', the update is postponed further... (covering face)]
[End of Chapter]
Chapter 942 Takatori Must Suffer a Heavy Blow!
Path of Rapid Progress, Spiritual Energy, and True Energy, Chi Feichei turned the street corner and walked towards the Apartment Building where Yingqu Yan Nan lived.
Last time in Guizawa Village, the test was interrupted by Otsuzawa Mami, and there was still a very important item that hadn't been tested—
Falling from a Building.
When a Cat falls from a High Place, its body will adjust its posture in mid-air to ensure that its padded feet land first, ensuring that parts such as the abdomen, back, and head are not injured.
Although Cats can also fall to their death, they always have a better chance of survival than other animals when falling.
He just wanted to test whether he could adjust his body in mid-air like a Cat when falling, and for this reason, he also tied a Rope around his waist.
After all, he didn't want to commit Suicide, nor did he want to break his legs due to excessive Impact.
During the Falling from a Building just now, the Wind whistled in his ears, and the strong wind hit his Face head-on. He couldn't open his mouth to speak or open his eyes at all, but listening to the subtle changes in the sound of the Wind and feeling the indescribable 'Premonition', he knew very well the extent of his fall, and could even calculate which Floor he had reached.
The muscles and Bones all over his body were also constantly making subtle adjustments. Those were automatic adjustments made without thinking. It seemed that when his mind received the estimated Situation, his body would adjust itself.
Not only could it adjust his 'head-down' posture to 'soles of feet down', but the Falling speed was also not as fast as he had imagined.
The First Time he fell, he grabbed the Rope with his gloved right Hand halfway through the fall, and slowly reduced his Falling speed, to avoid breaking his leg Bones due to excessive Impact when landing, but the Impact that time was not as great as he had imagined.
The second time he fell, he Specially grabbed the Rope a little later, making the Impact on his legs when landing a little greater. As a result, he found that not to mention a Bone Fracture, his legs didn't even feel numb.
The third, fourth, fifth time…
He increased the Impact on his legs when landing time after time. After discovering that his Falling speed was not as fast as he had imagined and that his body could withstand the Impact when landing, he finally untied the Rope and did a Free Fall Jump once.
Experiments proved that jumping from the 11th Floor would only make the soles of his feet feel numb for a moment, and there would be no other problems.
Unfortunately, it was already Day, and the Residents of the nearby Apartment Building had already gotten up one after another. In order to avoid causing a commotion, he could no longer continue the Experiment.
Another day, he could find a good Time or Place to try jumping from Floors below the tenth Floor, jumping from Floors above the tenth Floor, jumping from Floors above the twentieth Floor…
…
Chi Feichei went to Yingqu Yan Nan's Home to freeload Breakfast, called Yingqu Yan Nan to run to the Underground Training Ground in 1-Chome for Training, and by the way, beat Yingqu Yan Nan up, then ran Home together, just in time to go to his Home for Lunch together.
Sawada Hiroki put on Contact Lenses, sat on the Carpet in the Living Room playing on the Computer, and prepared to go to the Mouri Detective Agency in a while. Hearing the Door opening Sound, he looked up and saw Chi Feichei and the Sunglasses man who came in. He immediately recognized who the other party was, "Uncle Takatori?"
Yingqu Yan Nan looked over, suspiciously sizing up a certain Kid through his Sunglasses, "Boss, this is…?"
Sawada Hiroki then remembered that Yingqu Yan Nan had seen the 10-year-old 'Sawada Hiroki', but had never seen the one-and-a-half-year-old 'Xiao Shu'.
"A Friend entrusted me to take care of the Child for a while," Chi Feichei closed the Door and flipped a pair of Slippers for Yingqu Yan Nan, "Just call him Xiao Shu."
"Xiao Shu?" Yingqu Yan Nan sat down in the Entrance Hall to change his Shoes, looked back at the Kid walking towards them, "He looks very young, how could his Parents entrust him to others to take care of him…"
Sawada Hiroki walked to the side, raised his Arm, and hugged Chi Feichei who was sitting with his back to him in the Entrance Hall changing his Shoes. He was with his Godfather, so he hadn't been Leave, but he couldn't say this, and he had to find a way to smooth over the Opening from before, "Not many people can come to your Home, I guess this is Uncle Takatori you told me about? He is indeed very cool!"
"Uh-huh." Chi Feichei cooperated with Sawada Hiroki to patch up the loophole.
Yingqu Yan Nan was flattered, "You even mentioned me to him?"
Indeed, not many people can come to the Boss's Home, and he is one of them, feeling good.
The Boss even mentioned him to the Child, indicating that in the Boss's Heart, he is very Important, feeling good.
Moreover, listening to what this Child said, his Boss used the Words 'very cool' to introduce him to the Child. Children don't Say Lying, feeling good.
Alas, the dark circles around his eyes from being beaten up by the Boss in the morning don't hurt that much anymore.
"I did mention it to him," Chi Feichei reacted neutrally, changed his Shoes, and got up to prepare to go to the Kitchen, "I'll stir-fry two Dishes, liquor is out of the question, I still have to drive to the Mouri Detective Agency later, get Ice Cubes yourself."
"I'm not picky," Yingqu Yan Nan followed closely, changed his Shoes, and went to the Kitchen to get Ice Cubes, preparing to apply them to his dark circles in the Washroom, "Boss, were you Intentionally doing it this morning?"
Chi Feichei: "Uh-huh, Correct."
Peeping at his Home with Binoculars early in the morning, Takatori must suffer a heavy blow.
Yingqu Yan Nan: "…"
Very good, still this straightforward and irritating speaking Style.
Chi Feichei cooked Rice, stir-fried two Dishes with the Food Ingredients he still had at Home, and cooked a Soup.
Two grown men eating with a Child, the Atmosphere was not considered cold.
Yingqu Yan Nan joined the Queue of 'worrying that this Child won't survive three days in the Boss's Hands'.
"Boss, you just Leave this Child at Home in the morning?"
"Boss, is it okay to let this Child eat Rice directly? Do you want to cook softer Food for him?"
"Boss, is it not good for a Child this old to eat too much miscellaneous Food?"
"Boss…"
"Can you eat your Meal quietly?" Chi Feichei put down his Chopsticks, got up and took the Dishes to the Vegetable Sink.
"Okay," Yingqu Yan Nan lowered his head and ate Dishes, "Are you going to the Mouri Detective Agency today? Does that mean I don't have Work today either?"
"After a while, I'll help you change your Face to divert Gaoshan's Attention," Chi Feichei returned to the Table Front and poured a Bowl of Soup for Sawada Hiroki, "I'll contact you again if there's anything."
Gin hadn't replied to his Email, so there was no Work.
…
In the Afternoon, Chi Feichei drove Sawada Hiroki to the Mouri Detective Agency. When Mouri Ran opened the Door, everyone was there.
Mouri Ran, Conan, Doctor Agasa, Haibara Ai, Genta, Ayumi, Mitsuhiko, Suzuki Sonoko…
Mori Kogoro should have gone out for Investigation. Investigating infidelity is not something that can be handled in a day or two.
As soon as Sawada Hiroki arrived, he was instantly Surrounded.
"Xiao Shu, you're back!"
"No, no, that's not right, it should be said you've come!"
"Oh, that doesn't matter!"
Chi Feichei distributed the Snack Gift Pack that Sawada Hiroki had asked him to bring, listening to Genta, Ayumi, and Mitsuhiko chattering around Sawada Hiroki.
"Xiao Shu, Sonoko is inviting us to go Fishing tomorrow, do you want to Go Together?" Ayumi asked.
"You should know what Fishing is, right?" Mitsuhiko asked.
Conan chuckled dryly in his Heart. This Kid is like he shrank after taking medicine, how could he not know what Fishing is?
"I know," Sawada Hiroki responded childishly.
Haibara Ai looked at the fair and tender Kid with big, bright black Eyes, and couldn't help but soften her Tone, "Xiao Shu, do you want to go Fishing with us?"
Sawada Hiroki looked towards Chi Feichei.
Chi Feichei looked at Haibara Ai, "Ai, are you also Intention to go?"
Since Belmode disappeared, Haibara Ai has obviously become much more active in participating in the Junior Detective League's Activities.
"Although I'm not very Interested in Rewards, the point is participation, it's also good to go and See with everyone," Haibara Ai explained in a mature Tone, and then asked, "Aren't you going?"
"Not going," Chi Feichei Said, "Toshiya is looking for me for something, I'm going to find him Tomorrow."
"Okay, I knew you were a busy person," Haibara Ai looked at a certain well-behaved Kid, and her Tone softened again, "Then what about Xiao Shu? If you have things to busy yourself with, you can't bring him along…"
"Brother Chi, let Xiao Shu go with us!" Mitsuhiko Said seriously, "This time we will definitely not take him to do dangerous Things!"
"That's right," Genta Nodded, "We will protect him!"
"Sonoko and I will also go with the Children, and will take good care of them," Mouri Ran looked at Suzuki Sonoko, "Right, Sonoko?"
Suzuki Sonoko was a little worried that she wouldn't be able to handle it, and stroked her chin, "If it really doesn't work, I'll bring two Maids from Home, too young ones are out of the question… Ran, you wouldn't be wanting to adapt to Life with Children in advance, would you?"
Mouri Ran blushed suddenly, "Sonoko, what nonsense are you talking about!"
"Okay, okay, I won't tease you anymore," Suzuki Sonoko got up from the Sofa, "Brother Hissashi, I'll just hitch a ride in your Car, I'll go change into a Formal Dress outside the Banquet Hall!"
"Okay."
…
Early the next morning, after Chi Feichei completed his Daily Routine of jumping off buildings Test, he delivered Sawada Hiroki's Clothes, Small Water Bottle and other items to the Mouri Detective Agency, handed the Little Child over to Mouri Ran, and drove away with peace of mind.
Even if something went wrong with the unreliable Junior Detective League Kids, Sawada Hiroki would be fine.
THK Company President's Office.
Morizono Kikuto sat on the Office Desk, Whispering to Odagiri Toshiya.
Hearing the Knocking Sound, Odagiri Toshiya got up to open the Door.
Morizono Kikuto looked up and saw who it was. He still sat on the Office Desk without regard for his Image, and greeted with a casual Smile, "Hissashi, you're here."
Chi Feichei entered the Door, "Locking the Door in broad Daylight, what are you two Discussing?"
He heard the Sound of unlocking the Door and twisting the Door Handle Outside the Door. Locking the Door in broad Daylight, Secretive.
"Cough…" Morizono Kikuto coughed dryly, just about to speak, when he found that Chi Feichei immediately raised his Eyes and Staring at him, and the Statement he had prepared also choked back.
Chi Feichei quickly withdrew his Line of Sight and sat down on the Sofa.
There's a Secret, definitely a Secret!
Just now he was just Say So casually, 'talking about a new Project' could also be Locking the Door, which is not Weird, but Morizono Kikuto didn't answer immediately, using the Time of coughing dryly to think of a Statement. This habit of pre-lying Intro is very bad.
"It's nothing, I was talking to him about going to the banquet tonight, and I was just about to tell you too… Never Mind, let me talk about another Matter first," Odagiri Toshiya closed the Door, and then clicked the Lock shut, turned around and walked back to the Sofa and sat down, "It's about Kazuki, it was probably half a month ago, I went Home early that day, my Old Dad was not at Home, the Servant at Home had prepared the Meal, and I wanted to Call him to eat, but when I opened the Door, I saw that Child sitting at the Table Front looking at Cards or something in a daze. When he Saw me, he hurriedly put them away. I'm not sure if they were Photos or Letter Paper, but there was a thick stack. Originally, I wanted to tease him and Ask him if they were Love Letters from Girls or Fan Mail, but seeing that he seemed to have cried and his Eyes were still red, I didn't know What's Wrong. I didn't Ask him at the Time, probably because I was afraid that Asking would make him cry…"
…Holding a Scabbard in one Hand and drawing a Knife in the other, wanting to peel… an Apple, but when drawing the Knife, I put my Left Hand Thumb on the Scabbard opening, and the Blade just sliced across the pulp of my finger, that refreshing feeling… ⊙ω⊙ (Shifting the Responsibility to the Weather, who made the Weather warm and sunny, it's really not because my Chuunibyou relapsed and I made a Mistake in operation)

(End of Chapter)
Chapter 943: This Suggestion Works
Odagiri Toshiya said, spreading his hands helplessly, "After that, I paid a little attention and noticed that he sometimes locks himself in his Room Door and stays alone. When he comes out and sees me Outside, he seems flustered, and it looks like he's been crying. I was wondering if someone was bullying him, but I checked around myself and didn't find anything. My Company has a lot of things going on, and I was even thinking about Whether or Not asking the Junior Detective League Children to investigate. After all, they are Children, it's easier to communicate with them, and those Children have pretty good Investigation Ability..."
"He went to find Kazuki's former Bastard Manager," Morizono Kikuto interrupted Odagiri Toshiya's rambling, cutting to the Key Point, "The other party said that Kazuki should be looking at the Postcard his Mother sent him. It seems that since two years ago, Kazuki's Mother, who abandoned him, has been sending him Postcards, but it stopped last Winter."
"Kazuki might be missing his Mother, and worried that Old Dad and I would overthink it, or maybe he's wondering why that Woman disappeared again and feels sad..." Odagiri Toshiya paused, scratching his Hair frantically in distress, and said bluntly, "I want to find that Woman and ask her what she's thinking and why she suddenly stopped sending Postcards. This kind of thing is not something Children can investigate clearly. I want you to ask Mr. Mouri if he has time, just consider it my Commission, and ask him to Help investigate. But I don't have any Clues here, I just heard that Kazuki was abandoned at the Church Entrance..."
"Where is Kazuki now?" Chi Feichei asked.
Odagiri Toshiya told the truth, "The filming of the second part of 'Detective Lawyer' just finished, and he's been resting for the past few days. Today is the Weekend again. In the morning, he and Midorikawa were Downstairs watching the Editor work. I don't know if he's still there."
Chi Feichei Get Up, Go To the Office Desk, and directly used Odagiri Toshiya's Office Phone to dial Kurara Midorikawa's Mobile Phone Number.
"Hello, President? Are you looking for Kazuki?"
"It's me, Chi Feichei."
Silence.
On the other end of the Phone Call, Kurara Midorikawa froze. She didn't know if it was because of Chi Feichei's increasingly cold and stern image in the rumors, or because Chi Feichei had once come up with an Idea and set a trap to make her take Kinu Kawa Kazuki to live a difficult Life in another City and almost not be able to come back. As soon as she thought of Chi Feichei, she felt quite nervous.
"Mr. Chi, is there anything you need?"
"Is Kazuki with you?" Chi Feichei asked, feeling a little Speechless in his Heart.
Am I that scary?
"Yes," Kurara Midorikawa said quickly, "He wanted to eat Cake, and he and I just came out from the Editor's place and were planning to go to the Lounge to sit for a while..."
"Have him come to the President's Office," Chi Feichei said, "Bring the Cake too."
"Okay, okay."
Odagiri Toshiya watched Chi Feichei hang up the Phone Call, feeling a little Speechless, "You're asking Kazuki to come up, you wouldn't be thinking of..."
Chi Feichei Go To the Entrance, Open the Door Lock, and leave a Crack in the Door, "Just ask him directly."
He remembered that there was indeed a Plot about Kinu Kawa Kazuki looking for his Mother. The other party seemed to be in a Hot Spring Hotel, and there was a Mole in a certain Location. He didn't remember the specifics very clearly, but it was a good Ending.
Moreover, he felt that it was Better to be direct.
Odagiri Toshiya became anxious, "Hey, hey..."
"I also Think it's Better to make things clear directly," Morizono Kikuto stood up from the Office Desk, finally moved to the Sofa and sat down, teasing with a smile, "Minye, what's wrong with you? When it comes to this Matter, you don't have any decisiveness at all, you're as long-winded as a Woman and can't explain things clearly for a long time..."
Odagiri Toshiya was about to speak when Chi Feichei, who had returned, spoke first.
"He's just 'Concerned, then Confused'. Also, to be accurate, he's more like a middle-aged Woman who is overly worried about her Children."
Morizono Kikuto Nod, "Indeed!"
Odagiri Toshiya glared at the two for a moment, and found that they were ignoring him with calm expressions. He sighed deeply, "Bad friends, Kikuto, for my Dignity, Duel!"
"Why don't you Duel with Hissashi?" Morizono Kikuto had no Intention of Get Up.
"I can't beat him," Odagiri Toshiya admitted very frankly, clenching his Fist, "I'll deal with you first!"
"Cough cough..."
A dry cough came from the Entrance. Kurara Midorikawa knocked on the Door and then pushed the Door open a little, "President?"
Odagiri Toshiya: "..."
His steady and wise President image collapsed!
Although... he didn't have much of a steady image before.
"Let Kazuki in," Chi Feichei Get Up and Step Forward, "You go to the Lounge first."
Kurara Midorikawa avoided Chi Feichei's overly calm Line of Sight, hesitated and glanced at Kinu Kawa Kazuki beside her. With the Mentality that the little boy was going to the execution ground but she couldn't Help, she Nod heavily, handed the Cake Box to Kinu Kawa Kazuki, "Okay."
Kinu Kawa Kazuki took the Cake Box, also entering the Door with the Mentality of stepping onto the execution ground, his Heart drumming, and took the initiative to greet, "Brother Chi, Brother Minye, Brother Kikuto."
Chi Feichei closed the Door and locked it with a click, "Sit down first."
Kinu Kawa Kazuki Go To the Sofa and sat down, put the Cake Box on the Coffee Table, and sat upright.
Although he had been tricked by Chi Feichei before, and he had slandered 'ruthless', 'not cherishing women', 'not taking care of Children', 'Great Demon King, I will eliminate you on behalf of the Moon' and other Words in his Heart, but when he really met...
The Demon King Aura is very powerful, he didn't Think anything before, and didn't slander anything.
Odagiri Toshiya wanted to open his mouth to explain, but he didn't know where to start, and fell into Silence again.
Kinu Kawa Kazuki: "..."
The Atmosphere is so heavy, did he do something wrong?
Odagiri Toshiya: "..."
How should he talk about this? He has no Experience.
Morizono Kikuto: "..."
He was too optimistic before. Looking at their Getting Along, Odagiri Toshiya and his Father, who is the Chief of the Headquarters, should be the same Personality. They have many Ideas in their Hearts, but when they face to face, they look like 'you owe me Money', and they can't express themselves at all.
Alas, Home is Better after all, but should he Help?
Chi Feichei also knew that Odagiri Toshiya couldn't Say it, so after returning to the Sofa and sitting down, he took out a Voice Recorder and played it.
"The other party said that Kazuki should be looking at the Postcard his Mother sent him. It seems that since two years ago, Kazuki's Mother, who abandoned him, has been sending him Postcards, but it stopped last Winter..."
Morizono Kikuto: "!"
(゜ロ゜)
This Recording...
Odagiri Toshiya: "..."
(゜ロ゜)
Wouldn't the following also be...
"Kazuki might be missing his Mother, and worried that Old Dad and I would overthink it, or maybe he's wondering why that Woman disappeared again and feels sad... I want to find that Woman and ask her what she's thinking and why she suddenly stopped sending Postcards. This kind of thing is not something Children can investigate clearly. I want you to ask Mr. Mouri if he has Time, just consider it my Commission, and ask him to Help investigate. But I don't have any Clues here, I just heard that Kazuki was abandoned at the Church Entrance..."
The Recording stopped.
Kinu Kawa Kazuki was stunned when he heard the Recording, then Look Towards Chi Feichei in surprise, and after listening, Look Towards Odagiri Toshiya again, with tears glistening in his Eyes.
Odagiri Toshiya completely ignored everything else. He 'Whoosh' Get Up from the Sofa, like a humiliated young Woman, Looking at Chi Feichei in shock and Grievance, "Hissashi, you, you, you recorded it when? What are you recording this for?"
Chi Feichei ignored Odagiri Toshiya's Weird Gaze and said calmly, "About Kazuki changing his surname, you didn't mention it, thinking that mentioning it would embarrass Kazuki, or make Kazuki feel that he lost the Name his Mother gave him. If you don't mention it, you are worried that Kazuki will overthink it, but if you don't mention it, Kazuki will Think that you dislike him. If he takes the initiative to mention it, he is worried that you didn't originally Intention to let him enter the Odagiri Family, and Think that he is too greedy. This Matter is also the Same. If you investigate it yourself, it is Easy to cause misunderstandings. For Example, if Kazuki knows half of it, he will Think that you are minding that he is not your Younger Brother, or that you are minding that he is still Concerned about his Biological Mother..."
So, Adoption is the most Troublesome. It's Better to recognize Godfather and Godmother, but Adoption definitely has good Meaning, representing complete acceptance.
"Before you said that you Discovery him crying secretly in the Room, I Discovery that your Investigation has been carried out behind Kazuki's back. I was worried that misunderstandings would arise between you afterwards, and wanted you to communicate with him directly," Chi Feichei continued, "But with your Personality, you definitely can't Say it directly, so I recorded it."
Such a Matter that can be resolved by making it clear, don't drag it on and on and cause any Troublesome Matters in the future.
In this World, misunderstandings can also lead to Incidents. Odagiri Toshiya has already been a 'Suspect' twice, so don't cause any more Incidents.
Odagiri Toshiya Looked at Chi Feichei, speechless.
He had Nothing Else to Say!
Morizono Kikuto listened to Chi Feichei explaining the Situation in a calm and unhurried Tone, raised his Hand and rubbed his eyebrows. His previous shocked Mood was completely gone, and only a sense of powerlessness remained. What's going on, "Then why do you carry a Voice Recorder with you?"
"Personal Belongings," Chi Feichei put away the Voice Recorder, "I Suggest you also carry one with you, it's very useful when necessary, and it's also very easy to use."
Morizono Kikuto was speechless for a moment, and really started to Consider it seriously, exchanging glances with Odagiri Toshiya.
This Suggestion works!
"That..." Kinu Kawa Kazuki, who had been teary-eyed for a long time and ignored, opened his mouth, wanting to remind the Three People that the Topic had deviated, "Brother Minye said about Helping me find my Mother..."
Since the Words were spoken, Odagiri Toshiya didn't act coy anymore, waved his Hand and said, "If you mind, then go find her. Old Dad and I didn't overthink it. Adoption Procedures have been completed. No matter what, you are a Child of our Family. My Mother also passed away a long time ago. There are only two of us Men in the Home, and we are both very busy. We can't take care of some Matters. If you find your Mother and she is also willing to take care of you, you can Go To her place to See her if you want. I'm just worried that the Outcome will not be as you wish and make you sad, but after Thinking about it, I still Think it's Better to find out the Truth!"
"Thank you, Brother Minye," Kinu Kawa Kazuki lowered his Eyes, his Voice soft and sincere, and Look Towards the Two People on the Sofa opposite, "And Brother Chi and Brother Kikuto, thank you."
"Hissashi, it should be no Problem to Commission Mr. Mouri to investigate this Matter, right?" Odagiri Toshiya asked.
"No Problem," Chi Feichei agreed.
"Then I'll Request you to take Kazuki to find Mr. Mouri later, and I'll pay the Commission Fee, one million Japanese Yen. If the expenses are too much during the Investigation Process, I will add Reward again," Odagiri Toshiya quickly finalized the Matter, "It must be no Problem to leave it to Mr. Mouri, the Famous Detective. I Hope he can do his best. If it's Troublesome for you, I'll ask my Old Dad to talk to him, he should give him some Face, right..."
"No Need, I'll mention it to him another day," Chi Feichei said.
Using his Left Hand Thumb to type, it doesn't affect the operation at all, I am still me, fireworks of a different kind (hands on hips for a while).
[End of Chapter]
Chapter 944: Just Agreed?
"I can pay the Commission Fee myself," Kinu Kawa Kazuki said a little embarrassedly, "I also have money from filming..."
"That little bit of money you have is for your future family!" Odagiri Toshiya interrupted with a dark face.
Morizono Kikuto laughed, "Kazuki, your Brother Minya is standing up for you, which means you're one of their people, and they'll support you if anything happens. It wouldn't be good to refuse again."
Kinu Kawa Kazuki didn't expect that meaning, didn't refuse again, and nodded obediently, "Then let Brother Minya pay!"
"Cough, okay," Odagiri Toshiya awkwardly turned his head away, "Kazuki, go eat Cake over at my Desk, I have something else to say to them."
"Yes!" Kinu Kawa Kazuki was in a very good Mood, and ran off carrying the Cake Box.
"It's about the Onmyoji Film Series," Morizono Kikuto looked at Chi Feichei, his Expression becoming more serious, "You've read the Script, right? Although it's not completely finished yet, because the entire series is made up of small stories pieced together, and the Plot related to the Great Tengu that runs through it can also be adjusted, someone suggested that preparations can begin, and Minya and I also think it's time to start Arrangement."
Chi Feichei had no Opinion. Odagiri Toshiya was worried about these things, and Odagiri Toshiya thought that if preparations could be made, then so be it, "No Need to worry about Funds, no Problem."
"Yes, we don't lack Investors, the Problem is that we have too many," Odagiri Toshiya smiled strangely, with a feeling of 'pain and joy', "Originally, you, Kikuto Morizono, and Sonoko all intended to Investment, and the Company had already negotiated Investment issues with Field Group and Suzuki Foundation on the Condition of subsequent IP development, but I forgot that this Rumors couldn't be concealed, and others also intended to get involved, but it's okay, their Investment is only aimed at Film and Television aspects, and will not affect your IP subsequent development Benefit."
Morizono Kikuto smiled and took over the conversation, "Minya picked and chose, and refused many people, but there are two that are really unavoidable, or rather, it would be a Pity to avoid them. One is Yoko Okino's Talent Agency, they Request that Yoko Okino play an Important Role, Investment is just a formality, what's Important is that they are willing to Exchange Resource, and there are Things that Minya has been Stare at for a long time."
"You also know that Yoko Okino's Idol Protagonist Aura is too strong, and the female Roles inside are all Monster, they have to play ugly when they need to play ugly, and they have to be Serious when they need to be Serious. We value this series very much, and we will definitely not allow anyone to play cute in it. I'm worried that this Point will cause us to argue with them," Odagiri Toshiya frowned, with a Headache, "In addition, this series will be filmed for a long time. If an Actor changes their mind halfway through and someone else comes to play, it may Offend the Audience. Even signing a Contract won't work. The Compensation has a maximum limit. If they really want to manipulate us, they can still afford to pay. If we give her an unimportant Role, the Other Party will definitely disagree. If we give her an Important Role, she will be very popular with the Audience in the early stage. If they then use running away to Threaten us, wouldn't I be letting The Other Party Seize our Pain Point for a little Resource?"
Chi Feichei thought for a moment, "It's okay, promise them. As Long As the Death is wonderful, Death is sometimes the sublimation of the Role. Although some people will scold, it can achieve classics. Those things are left to the Screenwriter to Consider. If one is not enough, find two. You just need to choose the Optimal Plan."
Odagiri Toshiya Nod, "Okay, then promise them. Another Investor who intends to Investment is a Distribution Company from Hollywood. They are here to Investment to Making Money, and their Attitude is very good. It's inconvenient for me to refuse. After we have discussed it, I will send the relevant Situation to you. Of course, I will also send it to Sonoko."
"The Other Party doesn't intend to launder Dirty Money, right?" Chi Feichei asked directly.
There are many Situations of using the Film and Television Industry to launder Dirty Money.
For Example, the money launderer Invests in a Movie, and then agrees with the Cinema to sell Movie Ticket at a discount or let the Cinema make fake Data showing 'full house', and the loss of the Cinema's discount or empty seats is privately paid by the money launderer. After the box office statistics are completed, the money launderer will then share the 'big sale' box office revenue with the Cinema, turning the Money into legitimate Income.
With such a Turn Head, the Funds will shrink Portion, plus Tax Revenue, the Funds Consumption is not small, but Dirty Money comes easily and effortlessly. For the money launderer, those Consumption are bearable.
For Example again, the money launderer's Company spends a Fee to invite a certain international Star to participate in a Promotion Activity. The open Account Record shows a cost of 500,000 US Dollar, but this Money is not directly transferred, but communicated through a 'intermediary'. This 'intermediary' is also a money launderer, who will talk to the Star, give the Star 100,000, and then secretly pay 500,000 through a hidden Account.
The Star can get 600,000, of course they will not refuse. Although Portion of the Money is from Improper sources and not taxed, that Money can be used in inconspicuous Places.
For Example, to smooth Relationship and other Matters, this kind of Dirty Money is more convenient instead.
And that 'intermediary' took the 500,000 transferred from the Company's open Account, saying that 400,000 of it was intermediary Fee, while the Money he paid to the Star was only 100,000. In that way, at most he would be scolded for being black-hearted, but that 400,000 has become his legitimate Income, and the Purpose of laundering Dirty Money has been achieved.
Of course, the specific Operation is more Complex, and there are many more Routines.
As far as he knows, Belmode helped the Organization as a Funds transfer person when she was active under the Identities of 'Sharon Vineyard' and 'Chris Vineyard'. Sometimes she laundered Dirty Money to legitimate Consumption and lured people into a Hook, and sometimes she helped some big shots launder Dirty Money, taking in The Other Party's Dirty Money as the Organization's illegal Activity Funds.
The Organization's Dirty Money laundering system is very mature. It uses the Flaw in the Operation Rules of Film and Television, Finance, etc. If there is a lack of black, there is black, if there is a lack of white, there is white. It can also help others launder Dirty Money and make a Profit. Similarly, the existence of the Organization is also very Troublesome to get involved with.
THK Company is not unable to help people launder Dirty Money, but those Factions that need to launder Dirty Money are very Complex. You must be very careful and cautious, and don't let the Situation get out of control in the End.
When encountering foreign Investment of unknown Details, you need to pay attention to Whether The Other Party has the Intention of laundering Dirty Money, find out The Other Party's Background, and find out how much Risk they have to bear.
"The Other Party probably doesn't have this Intention," Odagiri Toshiya Said, "If they have this Intention, they will Hint at it first when talking, After All that requires our Cooperation, but they didn't Say it, but I will pay attention to it again. No Need to Worry, and then..."
"Hissashi, let's have a Gathering together at Night!" The smile on Morizono Kikuto's Face suddenly became ambiguous, "Have a Gathering with the other two Investors. They Said Before that they Hope we would call you and Sonoko, but Sonoko seems to have made an appointment to go on a long trip and has no time to go. If you are free, you can Go Together and Check it out. There are all kinds of Girls!"
Odagiri Toshiya and Morizono Kikuto secretly exchanged a Glance, and also smiled and encouraged, "Yes, they are all people in related Industry, the Atmosphere is relatively Relaxation, if you have time, Go Together."
He and Morizono Kikuto locked the Door in broad Daylight Before, first, to talk about some more Secret Matters of the Company, worried about being overheard, and second, to secretly Discuss -
Tonight's Gathering, no matter what, they must coax Chi Feichei to go, to see what Reaction Chi Feichei will have.
He Thinks that Chi Feichei will be the Same as before, this Fellow is too calm, Morizono Kikuto's View is completely Different, Saying that everyone is at the Age of vigor and vitality, Chi Feichei is even younger than them, just in the restless period, definitely can't hold back.
He is really Curious about whose Idea is accurate between him and Morizono Kikuto.
Chi Feichei captured Odagiri Toshiya and Morizono Kikuto exchanging glances, and had Certainty in his Heart.
There's a Pitfall.
But they have no Conflict of Interest. Based on the Relationship between the three of them, at most it's a Joke that doesn't even count as a Prank.
He Probably Understands what kind of nature this Gathering is.
The Circle is not that clean. Among people without Background Support, a large number of people engage in shady Transactions for Resource and to climb up.
The Rule placed in the Dark Place exists in any Kingdom.
He doesn't have any Important Matters on hand Recently. Sawada Hiroki and the Kid have gone out to play, and will be at Mori Detective Agency tonight. He can Consider going to Check it out...
"How about it?" Morizono Kikuto smiled, "What kind of Girl do you like? Minya can Arrange it for you."
Chi Feichei Nodded, and Said again, "I'll Look then, and choose a clean one."
Morizono Kikuto: "..."
(゜ロ゜)
Wait, wait, agreed? Just agreed?
Odagiri Toshiya: "..."
(゜ロ゜)
Report, this Fellow is not playing cards according to Routine!
As someone who just turned twenty and doesn't talk much usually, shouldn't he be a little shy? If not shy, being a little reserved is also okay.
Kinu Kawa Kazuki, who was sitting in the Office chair eating Cake, raised his head in Doubt, "Brother Minya, are you talking about Girls you like?"
Odagiri Toshiya broke out in a cold sweat. He almost forgot that there was still a Child sitting over there. If his Old Man knew what they were talking about here, he felt that he would probably have his Leg broken, "Y-yes, we are just chatting casually, asking The Other Party what kind of Girl they like."
Kinu Kawa Kazuki was fooled, and asked expectantly, "Brother Minya, do you have a Girl you like?"
"W-well, not really..." Odagiri Toshiya Said dryly.
Morizono Kikuto turned his head to look at the Office Door, and worked very Hard to hold back his laughter.
...
That Night, Odagiri Toshiya booked a well-known Sky Restaurant.
The Dining Room is located in a high-rise building in the Downtown Area. One French Window faces Tokyo Tower, and the other side has a Glass Terrace, facing the Bridge and Driveway leading in all directions.
The Internal Decoration is fashionable and exquisite. Food and Drinks are placed on the Table, and the Candle on the Candlestick shines with a little Radiance, reflecting on the Glass Window together with the dazzling Lights Outside.
The Banquet is buffet-style. In addition to Chi Feichei, Morizono Kikuto, and Odagiri Toshiya, the three inviting parties, the rest are the Management personnel of Yoko Okino's Talent Agency, the representatives of the two Investors from Hollywood, well-known Screenwriters and Directors in the Industry, and well-known male and female Entertainers.
Among them are Yoko Okino and Kurara Midorikawa, who were brought by the Company to support the scene, some who received Invitation Letter by virtue of their Reputation, and some who have Backing and Background, and obtained Invitation Letter from other Channels.
In the first Hour, everyone gathered to talk about Matters and eat Things. Management talked to Management, Directors exchanged Pleasantries with each other, Entertainers chatted casually or whispered and laughed. No one would rashly break into other Circles.
After eating almost enough and chatting almost enough, the people who were originally gathered to talk about Matters gradually dispersed.
Odagiri Toshiya Daily Routine was to 'show off' with the Girls of his own Company, helping the Girls to become familiar with the people from Hollywood. Just after finishing the Pleasantries, he Turn Head and found Morizono Kikuto leaning against the Cocktail Bar counter, chatting with two beautiful female Entertainers, smiling like a Sea King who started casting a net to catch fish. Turn Head again, he found Chi Feichei sitting in front of the French Window by himself with a Glass of Wine, enjoying the scenery and drinking, as leisurely as a Slacker who doesn't want to do anything.
Being a President is really Hard.
He is so envious of those two Fellows.
