Chapter 1399: The Study at Night
"Are you worried that if one day you're gone, no one will be able to suppress Hideo Midozawa?" Asami patted Yue Chong's shoulder and smiled, "Don't worry, he will definitely die sooner than you." ”
Yue Zhong nodded in agreement and said, "That's right, he's not as idle as me." ”
Iroha on the side heard it inexplicably, she just knew that the conversation between the two seemed to have something to do with Nanami Yachiyo: "What are you talking about?"
Yue Zhong and Ba Asami turned their heads together, and Yue Chong spoke first: "Miss Huan, you have to be careful, don't let people kidnap Miss Nanami." ”
"Yachiyo is much smarter than me, Yue Chong, you're joking again. "Kaniroha doesn't believe in Yue Zhong's alarmism, the magical girls who came out of Kamihama City have high expectations and trust in Nanami Yachiyo, maybe her combat power is not the most outstanding among them, but her maturity and wisdom can reassure others, just like Asami did in Mitakihara.
As the moonlight grew thicker, it didn't take long for Asami to leave, and Kan Iroha also ran over to find Nanami Yachiyo and planned to return to Kamihama City with the other party, but Nanami Yachiyo told her that she had something to discuss with Yue Shige, so Kan Iroha had to stay in the manor for one night under the arrangement of the old housekeeper.
Only the maid was left in the banquet hall to clean up the mess, and Yue Zhong returned to the old mansion to wait for the visit of Nanami Yachiyo and Hideo Midorisawa.
The light on the ebony-colored desk is dim, Yue Chong did not get carried away because he succeeded in a case, he knew that he still lacked a lot of knowledge, this time he was able to hit Kojima Haru by surprise because he had just arrived and there was a pig teammate who couldn't help him, if the two sides started a confrontation on a new case, it would be difficult for Yue Zhong to take advantage of it at that time, so it was imperative to read books as much as possible in the limited time to absorb the knowledge he needed.
Yue Zhong doesn't want to pin the hope of success on the ethereal miracle, relying on his own ability to grasp the situation to make him feel at ease, now he is no longer a gambler who has no worries but gambles again and again for his lovers, he is burdened with the rise and fall of Xiaoyan's family, and bears the expectations of many people to lead this family to the future, and stability is what he needs most.
The girl who was as blue as the cold sea of Hokkaido arrived as promised, and what appeared with her was Hideo Midozawa who had dyed his hair black and was dressed in a formal suit, and the joint appearance of the two had already given Yue Zhong enough signals, he took his eyes off the books on the desk and raised his head, looking at the figures of Nanami Yachiyo and Hideo Midorisawa and said, "Have you discussed it?"
"Boss...... I'm here to report on the information gathered during this time. Midozawa Hideo subconsciously shrank his head after meeting Yue Chong's gaze, even if Yue Chong had never done anything to him, but he was afraid of Yue Chong, and all the careful thoughts that he could get up when he didn't face him disappeared without a trace once they were exposed to Yue Chong's eyes.
He himself knows very well that if he has always had such a mentality, then he will be suppressed by Yue Zhong for the rest of his life, and he will not be able to raise his head, unless he can make up his mind to defeat Yue Chong head-on, he will never have confidence, and there will never be the possibility of equal dialogue.
"Tell me what you're willing to tell me?" Yue Zhong was looking at Nanami Yachiyo more, coincidentally she and Hideo Midozawa happened to be standing in the position where she and Xiaoyan were back then, because of the difference in positions and opinions, there were always big differences between the people in front of and behind the desk, and now he was the one sitting behind the desk.
Hideo Midozawa didn't think that his behavior of contacting Nanami Yachiyo in private could hide from Yue Chong's eyes, he hadn't seen Yue Chong for a long time, and he thought that he had the confidence to face his questioning, but when he really faced Yue Chong, he still felt nervous: "Whatever the boss says, I will naturally tell you everything I know." ”
Yue Zhong nodded noncommittally, still observing Nanami Yachiyo's expression.
Perhaps because of the agreement reached with Hideo Midorisawa, Nanami Yachiyo was not as flat as before when facing Yue Chong's gaze, she looked a little cramped, and her expression flickered to avoid Yue Chong's gaze.
Listening to what Hideo Midozawa was talking about, because it was not long ago, Yue Zhong didn't have much hope that Hideo Midozawa would be able to gain something, and what he said sounded useful, but if you think about it carefully, it's just a speculation to catch the wind and shadows, maybe you can have a greater harvest according to those clues, but who said that this kind of thing must have to be Hideo Ozawa?
Hideo Midozawa has never been the only choice, and his ambition is greater than his ability, Yue Zhong can control him but can't guarantee that he will really be loyal to him, Nanami Yachiyo mistakenly thinks that Hideo Midozawa is his spokesperson before he will agree to the other party's conditions, so should he expose this clumsy lie?
It seems more interesting to know what the agreement between them is until then......
It took Hideo Midozawa more than an hour to concisely finish the secrets he heard in his interactions with middle-level people such as major enterprises and international organizations, Yue Zhong listened without saying a word, didn't give him a sip of water to drink or let him sit down, knowing that Hideo Midozawa stopped and swallowed his saliva and licked his dry lips, Yue Chong said slowly: "Since Miss Nanami is here together, I believe that the most famous magical girl detective in country J must have extraordinary insights, why don't you talk about it?"
In the dimly lit study, looking at Yue Chong's scrutinizing gaze, Nanami Yachiyo was not sitting, she felt that this hour was incomparably long, and now Yue Chong's voice did not make her feel nervous but let out a sigh, and the oppressive atmosphere gradually dissipated as Hideo Midozawa's voice stopped.
"Yue Chong, does what you promised me in Kamihama City still count?" Nanami Yachiyo can't be sure of Yue Chong's thoughts, she is different from other magical girls in that other magical girls believe in Yue Chong unconditionally, but she knows that Yue Chong will also be the next Xiao Mei Yan if necessary, and they can both sacrifice everything for each other.
"Of course, I promised you that you would not do anything unfavorable to the world, and I would not break your promise just because the case was closed. Yue Zhong replied seriously.
Nanami Yachiyo nodded at this time, and then said: "I must have caused some trouble to Yue Chong's family when I came here, but I only hope that Yue Chong can remember his promise and not be too obsessed with revenge in the matter of the previous family master." ”
"I believe that with Yue Chong's ability, even if it does not pass justice, it can turn our world upside down, but too much chaos will implicate many innocent people and lose their lives, and I don't want to see darkness envelop the world again......"
