Chapter 0604 - Invitation to the Resort
The next day, Sunday, May 24, morning, Maori Detective Agency.
After Hattori had eaten the breakfast left for him, he had only been reading the Tokyo morning newspaper for a while when he heard someone calling his name outside, a voice he knew very well, and then Kazuha came in.
"Y-What are you doing here?" Hattori clearly thought about it, and confirmed with some nervousness.
"I guess enough of a day of play. He Ye clenched his fists and smiled, "Auntie told me to catch you and go home, obediently, come with me." ”
"Stupid, will you count, one day. Hattori shouted.
"Why not, you idiot, it's almost the same when you get home. He Ye said, "Hurry up and pack your things." ”
Glancing at the snickering Maori trio, Hattori complained, "Damn. "But I went upstairs anyway. ……
In the afternoon, the Maori Detective Agency.
When Yamazaki came, he found that Hattori was not there, so he asked, and it turned out that he was captured by Kazuha from Osaka in the morning.
At this time, the Twilight Police Department came and informed Mori about the investigation into the incident between Osamu Honda and Katsuji Mishima yesterday.
"We searched Mr. Honda's apartment and found his diary, from which we learned that Mr. Osamu Honda had a six-year-old brother who died of serious injuries sustained in a car accident in '95. ”
Maori asked, "So, is Mr. Mishima the perpetrator?"
"We investigated the transcript of the incident, and it went like this, the perpetrator said that the child suddenly rushed out of the alley, and when he was taken to the hospital, he muttered 'give it back, give it back to me', probably chasing a motorcyclist, but he couldn't remember the license plate. "And Mr. Honda's diary says that he has joined Kamen Superman's fan club many times in the past two years just to find this person." ”
Mori asked, "Has it been confirmed that it is Mr. Mishima?"
"Last night we brought in the perpetrator and showed him Mr. Mishima's motorcycle, and he said it was this one. ”
Maori asked, "Surely? Didn't you say it was transformed?"
"The perpetrator said that he used to play with motorcycles, and although Mr. Mishima's motorcycle was modified, he must have seen it before, and he remembered it when he saw the license plate, which is the license plate of this number," the police department said. ”
Lan asked in surprise, "Doesn't that mean that Mr. Mishima stole the child's things, right?"
"We also found Mr. Mishima's diary at his apartment, which said that he got a rare Kamen Superman thick plate poster that day. The poster has been found, and according to Mr. Mishima's friend, Mr. Mishima said that the poster was given to him by one of his brothers, but he didn't say who it was. We asked Mr. Mishima, who squeaked for a long time before finally saying that he had snatched it from a child. "Looks like Mr. Mishima had no idea that the kid had died because of his misdeeds. ”
"I see," said Mori, "Mr. Honda planned Mr. Mishima's suicide in order to avenge his brother's death." ”
"Yes, Mr. Honda has also confessed. "He and Mr. Mishima agreed to put on a scary trick at the make-up party, and then prepared a real gun and gave it to Mr. Mishima." ”
"I see. Maori said.
The Twilight Police Department looked at the time, "Alright, I should go back too." ”
"You walk slowly. Maori said. ……
Later, Osamu Honda was sentenced to three years for attempted homicide and three years for illegal possession of a firearm. ……
Wednesday, May 27, afternoon, good mood, Mimiko Miyamoto's office.
Misa Horiuchi came with a heavy face, and saluted and said, "I'm very sorry, madam." ”
"What is it?" Miyamoto smiled, "Sit down and talk." ”
"Thank you, ma'am. Misa Horiuchi sat down in her seat and touched the logo of the Golden Ryoribe on the table.
"Take it easy. Mimiko Miyamoto smiled, "Let's hear it." ”
"The Russian government today promulgated a series of financial policies, which directly or indirectly affect our investment in Russia and officially enter the stage of loss. Misa Horiuchi said.
"Okay, I see," Miyamoto smiled, "you don't have to take it personally." ”
Misa Horiuchi said, "However, it was my mistake that the funds were not withdrawn in time. ”
Miyako Miyamoto smiled: "Okay, I'll punish you for earning back the losses from somewhere else." ”
"Yes, ma'am, I will do it. Misa Horiuchi said seriously.
"By the way, how much money do we have in Russia?" asked Miyakoto Miyamoto.
"There are still about $7 billion worth of money that haven't been withdrawn yet. Misa Horiuchi said.
"Spend it. Miyamoto Miko said, "I guess it's going to be difficult to withdraw." ”
"All?" asked Misa Horiuchi.
"Actually, there aren't many, it's almost enough to buy dozens of tons of diamonds and gemstones, and he must have this stock. Of course, we are reducing our losses, and he is also in urgent need of funds to turn around, so there is definitely a chance, but it is inevitable to be cheated. Of course, how you want to spend it will have to be told by someone to know. Miyamoto Miko said, "I'll leave this matter to you, and you can see that it's done." ”
"I see. Misa Horiuchi said, then thought about it and smiled, "If it's really a trade in gems, I'll almost be able to return to my original cost in more than ten years." ”
"Alright, go ahead, I'm going to get off work. Miyamoto Miko laughed. ……
Friday, May 29, morning, Miyamoto house, living room.
The front page of the morning newspaper ran about the Labour Force Survey report, which was full of bad meaning, and finally concluded that the unemployment rate was more than 4 percent.
Yamazaki said, "I don't know if that big guy can pass this level." ”
Miyamoto Miko said: "With our conditions to lay the foundation, he himself must be fine." ”
"That's just as well. Yamazaki said.
"Brother, it's time, we can go. Mei Daiko said. ……
In the afternoon, the Maori Detective Agency.
Soon after Yamazaki arrived, the Maori hearing returned, and Conan couldn't wait to ask about the situation.
After drinking a can of beer in one go, Mori flattened the beer can, "Death penalty, the murderer of Mr. Asahi is also considered to be Mr. Sawaki's fair man, and Mr. Sawaki's lawyer is completely defeated." Then he asked, "Okay, don't talk about him, what's going on in the business?"
"No, uncle. Yamazaki said.
"Well, really. Maori sighed.
At this time, the phone rang, and Maori immediately answered the phone, "Hello, this is Maori Detective Agency, I am Maori Detective." ”
"Hello, Detective Maori, my name is Eri Nakamura, and I am the secretary of the president of Yamazaki Development Company. Nakamura asked, "We, President Yamazaki, would like to ask you to go to the Iwami Onsen Resort in Iwami Town, Fukushima Prefecture tomorrow, I wonder what you think?"
"Of course that's fine. Mori quickly jotted down the address, "May I ask what President Yamazaki asked me to do?"
"Our president didn't say this, but he just said, if it's convenient, please bring your family. Nakamura said.
"Okay, I see. Maori asked, "What time is that?"
Nakamura asked, "Can you arrive at 10:30 a.m.?"
"No problem, absolutely no problem. Maori immediately laughed.
"Well, then, I'm there for you. Nakamura said with a smile, then hung up the phone.
Hanging up the phone, Maori smiled at Lan and said, "It seems that tomorrow's lunch has been settled." Then he told Yamazaki about the commission, and then asked Yamazaki, "What do you know about this club, and I always think I've heard of it somewhere?"
Yamazaki said, "It is a company that specializes in the development of tourism resources for local public organizations at the town and village levels, and it has made good use of the advantages of easy fund-raising for local public organizations, which was featured in magazines some time ago. ”
"And," Conan said, "it says to recruit bodyguards." ”
"Recruiting bodyguards?" Maori muttered to himself, touching his chin, "Could it be that there is a physical threat?"
Lan asked, "Since you have recruited bodyguards, why do you still invite Dad?"
Maori smiled, "It must be because I, the famous detective Maori Kogoro, is more reliable." He laughed smugly.
"It's upgraded again. Yamazaki and Conan sighed together. ……
The next day, in the morning, Iwami Town, Fukushima Prefecture, Iwami Onsen Resort Inn.
Mori pressed the doorbell, and after a while, a middle-aged man answered the door, and he said, "Welcome, you are the Mori detective, I'm Shingo Aihara, the manager here, and our president is waiting for you, please come in." ”
"Excuse me. "Mori, Ran, Conan, and Yamazaki change their shoes in the hallway.
Living room.
There were three people in the living room, a middle-aged woman, a man of about sixty years old standing side by side with her, and a young woman standing behind her, which should be Nakamura Esato who was on the phone.
Shingo Aihara introduced the middle-aged woman to everyone, "This is our president, Ms. Hiromi Yamazaki." ”
"It's a pleasure to meet you, Mr. Maori. Hiromi Yamazaki smiled and stretched out her hand.
"That's what I should say. Maori smiled and shook Yamazaki's hand.
Hiromi Yamazaki said, "Mr. Mori, let me introduce you, this person next to me is the mayor of Iwami Town, Mr. Hachibei Hachibei. ”
The man, who was about sixty years old, smiled and said, "Welcome, Mr. Maori, I'm sorry to invite you all the way to the mountains this time." ”
"Where, it is precisely because of your invitation that I have seen such a beautiful landscape. Maori laughed.
Hachibei smiled happily, "Really? It seems that you really didn't find the wrong person for this matter." ”
"Can you please ask me for this?" asked Maori.
Pointing to the architectural model of the resort on the table, Hachibei Hachibei said, "Look at this, Mr. Mori, in order to increase the population of the town and revitalize the economy of the town, we asked the Yamazaki Development Company to design and build this Iwami Onsen Tourist Resort, and in addition to the hot springs, we have taken into account almost all the facilities of the venue, whether it is a golf course, a baseball field, a popular music club, an amusement center, etc. ”
Hiromi Yamazaki laughs, "The construction of this resort will be completed in the near future, so we plan to start the final promotional work. ”
"Publicity?" asked Maori in surprise, "Did you ask me to be a model?"
Hachibei smiled: "It's worthy of a Maori detective, and it was deduced at once." ”
"Do you still need reasoning?" conan muttered.
Hiromi Yamazaki smiled, "Yes, Mr. Mori, we are going to ask you to be a promotional model for the poster, and we are going to ask you to perform in a TV commercial." ”
"No problem, it's all on me. Maori smiled excitedly.
"I'm glad that my dad can be a model, but let my dad be a model," Lan asked in a low voice, "Yamazaki, do you think anyone will come?"
"God knows. Yamazaki whispered.
Hachibei looked at the time, "Mr. Mori, I still have some business, so I'll come and have two drinks with you at noon, so that you can taste our unique wine." ”
"Okay, that's exciting. Maori laughed.
Hiromi Yamazaki smiled, "So, Mr. Mori, let me show you around." ”
"I'm tired. Maori laughed. ……
