Chapter 372: Banquet Hall

“。。。 Well, that's it, get in touch with the Suzuki Foundation as soon as possible. I'll do it as soon as it's over tonight on my side. Before the message walks out. When necessary, we exchange some of the core information we get for funding. With that, I hung up.

I came to the twin buildings of the Tokiwa chaebol, and in the corner of the banquet hall, I dialed the thin wolf. Let him finish the preparations I just said.

"Kaoru, what did you just say in the car? "Seeing that I hung up the phone, Shiho also walked over to me in small steps and asked.

"Hmm. I nodded, and then pulled Shiho with me towards the banquet table. "Originally, I wanted to give up if I didn't have a winning point, but who wanted the second Miss Yuanzi to give face like this, so she sent the winning point directly. ”

"I don't really understand. Shiho shook his head in confusion.

"To put it simply, this new hairstyle in the garden inspired me. I picked up a plate of foie gras from the table and ate it with bread. "This time, with wavy hair and short brown hair, to be honest, at first glance I thought it was my Shiho who had taken the antidote and got bigger. But if you look closely, well... Sure enough, it is still my family Shibao's facial features are more three-dimensional and better-looking. ”

"It's not serious. Shiho turned his head and snorted softly. "I'm of mixed English and Japanese descent. It is normal for the facial features to be three-dimensional. ”

"Of course. That's why my family Shiho is more pretty. I said with a grin. "But ... Gin doesn't know. ”

"Huh?"

"First of all, Gin didn't know about our getting smaller, and he had the impression that Sherry was still the woman with a cold face, a white lab coat, and short wavy brown hair. Right?"

"Hmm. ”

"Second, even if Gin sends someone to the banquet hall to find out, I'm sure that person's impression of you won't be as recognizable as mine, right?"

"Hmmm... Well. After thinking about it, Shiho still nodded.

"Third. If Gin's choice of assassination this time is in the form of close-range poisoning, shooting, or melee weapons such as bayonets, then he himself must have come here. But don't forget, now the police are just waiting downstairs, no matter how wild Gin is, he can't bring someone directly in to kill someone, right? What's more, with me at the scene, as long as I keep an eye on it a little bit, at least in this field, I am sure that as long as he makes a move, I can kill him as soon as possible. Although there may be people to accompany the burial. On the other hand, for long-distance sniping, I have seen the nearby terrain, and the nearest sniper point is 400 yards away. Gin couldn't see what the garden looked like, he would definitely recognize the wrong person. ”

"You mean to say ... Sonoko's unexpected change of hairstyle this time has instead become a bait for you to calculate Gin?" Shiho frowned when he heard this.

"Hmmm... Yes. Although this is very unfair to the garden. I nodded.

"The last time you showed such an expression was when you sent Sister Shizuru out of the organization. Shiho's blue eyes were fixed on me. "But this time you took the initiative to send the garden to the gallows. ”

"Don't say that... I smiled bitterly. "After all, it's a set for Gin.,Although there are certain dangerous ingredients in it.,But... ”

"What's the chance of winning?" Shiho interrupted.

"Hmmm... Three-seven open? ”

"I won't agree if I don't have a 100% success rate!" Zhibao's face was slightly cold, as if my decision made her a little angry, after all, I was really selling my teammates now.

"It's not impossible. I thought about it with my chin in my lap. "But this kind of variable will be relatively large, although I can save the garden 100% in another form, but there is no guarantee that there will be anything left for Gin. It may even be possible that we can only defend passively. In this case, it may not work in our favor in the future. ”

"Do you remember what you said to me in the afternoon, to prevent > from escaping> profiting > assassination members. Why take the risk now? Shouldn't assassinating members of the organization be the last option?"

"But Shiho, this is the winning point of the door, I... ”

"No!" Shiho's voice suddenly raised a few points, causing everyone around him to look at us. Seeing this, Shiho stopped talking, shook his hand and walked out of the hall.

——————————— Detective Conan Theatrical Edition 5 & Countdown to Heaven——————————

"Did you quarrel with Ashbara?" After Shiho left, Conan walked up to me with two drinks and handed me one of them.

"Alas. . . I don't know when this girl started to take care of my business. Looking at the direction Shiho left, I couldn't help but shake my head helplessly.

"You haven't been letting her take care of it. "Conan is funny.

"Something. . . I told you that you don't understand. With that, I poured tons of drink into my mouth. "I'm going to find her back. ”

"You'd better let her calm down for a while. Conan stopped me. "It's on this banquet floor anyway. The only place I can go is the bathroom, so it's fine. But I have something I want to ask you. ”

"Huh, what?"

"Are you planning something?"

"Hey... Why did you start to take care of me?"

"I don't know what Gray Yuan knew from you that made her react so much, but now I'm sure you're hiding something from me. ”

"It doesn't have much to do with you, you just can enjoy this banquet with peace of mind. ”

"Is it leaking?" Conan said. "What did we make smaller, let the organization know?"

“。。。 I stared at Conan's slightly serious face with a calm look, and finally smiled helplessly, "Almost." ”

"That is, it was not leaked, but its whereabouts were exposed?"

“。。。 You can understand it this way. With that, I picked up a plate of salmon from the table and chewed it slowly. "In general, it's a complicated affair and there's a lot of stuff involved. After some research, I was able to identify people who were indeed organized in the Tokiwa Foundation. ”

"Nani?!" Conan's pupils shrank.

"But it's already hanging. ”

“。。。 "In the next second, Conan had already identified the character I was talking about.

"Yes. ”

"So to speak. Yuan Jiaming was killed by the people of the organization?"

"The preliminary judgment is yes. ”

"What about the shot glasses I saw at the scene earlier?"

"It was the murderer of the parliamentarian who rushed over afterwards only to find that he was dead. Evidence was left afterward. ”

"Do you know who he is?!

"Nope. ”

"Why!"

"Your detective game. Why should I get involved? Besides, you don't have any proof now, so what can I tell you?" I teased. "Enjoy this banquet. The horse's feet will always be exposed. ”

"You're really... Conan glared at me helplessly. "And so on. . . You've said so much in one breath, and you've completely diverted me from the topic. You just said that we were exposed. ”

"To be precise, only Shiho, or Sherry, was exposed. I said flatly. "And yet... As I spoke, I raised my chin at the garden, who was still talking and laughing with Xiaolan on the side.

Conan followed my gaze and understood what I meant in an instant.

"This... Wouldn't the garden be dangerous? ”

"Yes, to be honest, I don't even dare to let her stand at the window now, for fear that a bullet will be sent directly. ”

"What should I do? Do you want her to leave first?"

"Do you think she will be in danger with so many people here, and now she can run away if she is alone?"

"What should I do? You must have a way, right?"

"Yes, there is, but ... With that, I turned my gaze back to the direction where Shiho had just left.

"Not sure?" Conan's face was solemn. "No wonder Gray Plains is arguing with you. I have to praise Conan's thinking ability, just a few words, he analyzed the process of many things.

"Actually, it's just a few dangers, it's just that times are different, I used to be able to do anything to achieve something, but now ... As I spoke, I shook my head. "Forget it. "I'll see the plane.

"Anyway, you can't leave the garden alone, and I and Gray Yuan are united in this point. Conan patted me on the shoulder. "I can not investigate who the murderer is for the time being, I will go back and investigate it myself, but I may not be able to help much on the side of the organization, everything depends on you. ”

"It's not a matter of life and death. Rest assured, everything is fine with me. In this hall, I'll keep an eye on the garden, but there's one thing you need to be aware of. ”

"What?"

"Don't let the garden come near the window, or I won't be able to save her in the first place if a bullet flies from four hundred yards away. ”

"Oh, that's fine. Conan thought for a moment. "But what about you?"

"I have to prepare for what's next. Before I knew if the organization would find me, I had to prepare for the worst. ”

"Now, it's in the banquet hall. There are people everywhere here, how do you prepare?" Conan looked around.

"Let's be later, if the people of the organization really come, then it will soon be not peaceful here, and it will naturally be the time for me to move. If I don't come, then everything will be fine, and this matter will be considered over, so I will go first... ”

"Thank you very much for taking time out of your busy schedules to attend the opening ceremony of the Tokiwa Group's Twin Towers skyscraper. Before I finished speaking, I was interrupted by a voice from the loudspeaker, it turned out that the banquet had already begun, and Mio Tokiwa, the representative of the Tokiwa Group, had already stepped onto the stage and started her speech, "Before the official start, I have an after-show here, and I hope everyone can participate in this little game." ”

"Let's go to the stand. I greeted Conan. "You go to the garden, the badge is definitely not usable, the mobile phone is kept unblocked, and you can contact at any time. ”

"Hmm. Be careful with yourself afterwards. Conan nodded to me and walked towards the garden.

"In celebration of the 30th anniversary of the Tokiwa Group, I wanted to play a game of guessing the time, that is, a game of 30 seconds! ”

When the words fell, the audience exclaimed, an imported convertible is not a small number, which may not be worth mentioning for some high-ranking officials, but there are still some middle-class, even commoner class people at the scene, and even a group of half-grown children. Such a temptation can be said to be quite large, looking at the excited appearance of Motota Mitsuhiko from afar, it is estimated that the thirty-second treasure is all pressed on Ayumi.

"Of course, if two people guess correctly, then it can only be decided by guessing, and the losing side can only take this off-road mountain bike with a helmet here. ”

"Hahaha. ”

Funny lines are always the protagonist of the banquet hall. No, Tokiwa's casual joke set the mood on the field.

"Alas. . . Okay, if you send it, I'm welcome. I picked the corners of my mouth and looked at the car not far away. "It's not necessarily going to be open, but it's good to have it at home. It is also possible to give Shiho as a gift of reparation. ”

"Ahem. As soon as the words fell, there was a slight cough beside me, which seemed to be speaking. "I'm back. "When I turned my head, I saw Shiho, who had recovered, standing beside me.

"Oh. I'm back. I greeted Shiho. "Better?"

"Forget it. Shiho's beautiful eyes closed slightly, and he lowered his head and sighed softly. "If you think about it, it seems like I'm on the wrong side. Your plans shouldn't have been affected by me. It was I who said the superfluous. ”

"Hmm, why is it so good all of a sudden?" I wondered. "Did anyone tell you anything?"

"No, it's just... It may be that I have been away from the organization for too long and have forgotten the sense of crisis I once had. Shiho said with a slight loss. "In the past, I didn't dare to ask for so much. Maybe it's because my life is so comfortable now that I have the idea of being greedy. ”

"Okay, okay, isn't life pretty good now?" I replied with a grin. "It's me who's wrong this time, this car will be a gift for you when I win it back, okay?"

"My body can't drive now. Shiho glanced at me angrily.

"How about a Prada bag?"

“。。。 Good. ”
