Chapter 2159: The Fortune Teller's Mandate
Tuesday, July 15.
After the ice cream feast was over, everyone went out happily first, and the gray-faced Maori paid the bill tremblingly, and then went out with a broken heart and lifeless.
In the summer evening, the temperature is not low, and the sunset shines people, but Maori still does not feel the slightest warmth, and it is cool from the inside out.
Fei Yingli looked funny, but she didn't sympathize with him at all, if she could correct Maori's greed for money, even if such a thing happened again, she would be willing to see it.
It's just a pity that this is probably not possible.
"Ah, before you know it's dinner time," Sonoko decided to continue, "Uncle Maori, why don't you invite us to dinner too." β
Maori suddenly became agitated and extremely annoyed, "Hello......"
Yuanta, Ayumi, and Mitsuhiko immediately responded and reported the delicacies they had eaten.
Maori faced each other with a wicked face, "One person has one cup of noodles, and I don't like to eat it." β
Motota, Ayumi, and Mitsuhiko were immediately deflated, and the others laughed.
Maori glanced at the audience, snorted coldly, and left in a huff.
Yuanzi made a triumphant gesture to Lan, and Lan smiled helplessly, it was her father after all.
Motota looked at the garden, "By the way, then you can invite us to dinner." β
"Agreed. Mitsuhiko agreed.
"Sister Yuanzi is the best. Ayumi complimented.
"Ha, don't even think about it, go home and eat your own. The garden unceremoniously refused.
Fei Yingli said with a smile: "In this way, I'll invite you to a buffet, it's just ordinary." β
"Great. β
"Aunt Yingli is the best. β
"Hooray. β
Mitsuhiko, Ayumi, and Motota are very happy, as long as they have food.
Dr. Asa also touched his beard with a smile, and at the same time peeked at Gray Yuan, thinking if he could take the opportunity to eat a big meal, he was not a problem with money, but with Gray Yuan's control.
Gray Yuan realized, "What good things are you thinking?"
"Huh?" Dr. Asa had a bad feeling.
Gray Yuan said angrily: "After eating such a large portion of ice cream, you are not allowed to eat meat tonight." β
"Ahh
Everyone laughed, and Conan spread his hands, saying that he couldn't help. β¦β¦
After that, except for Yamazaki and Mei Daiko, the others went with Fei Yingli and went to Rice Flower Plaza for a buffet, not the one on the 56th floor of the top floor of the commercial building, but the one on the first floor of the residential building hotel.
The difference in location between the two sides is about 280 meters, and the price is also very different, and the quality of the food is also different. β¦β¦
Wednesday 16 July, MΔori Detective Agency.
Maori is in a bad mood, so bad that he doesn't want to go out, and needs to use Yoko Okino's film and television dramas to soothe his wounded heart.
After feeling the warmth of the morning, by noon, the mood was finally much better, and Maori ordered a takeaway to comfort his stomach.
Soon after, there was a knock on the door, and Maori took the money and went to open it.
Then, Maori was stunned, and it was not the sweaty takeaway brother outside the door, but the beautiful woman with the fragrance wafting through.
"Hello, you are a Maori ......"
"Could it be that you are the actress Miss Clara Midorikawa?"
"Well, I am, may I ask ......"
"Wait a minute, wait a minute. β
Midorikawa Clara ate the closed door, and in fact, Maori went back to tidy up the room at great speed, and took care of herself, shaved and combed her hair, and took a bouquet of roses from a vase.
Just a moment later, a super handsome Maori came out with a bouquet of flowers in his mouth, opened the door and posed, leaning against the door, looking up thirty degrees, looking up with a confused look.
"Ah, keep you waiting......"
"Undertaking Benefits......
Before Maori finished speaking, he realized that something was wrong, and when he looked at it again, he was dumbfounded, and the flowers fell out of his mouth.
Because he was not facing the beautiful and fragrant actress Miss Midorikawa Clara, but the sweaty takeaway brother, he was looking at him dumbfounded, sweating all over his head, and he didn't know if it was hot or scared.
However, it is estimated that it is the latter, because he didn't even confiscate the money, dropped the food box and ran away, and the psychological shadow area is probably infinite.
"Huh...... Sorry, heh......" The actress Clara Midorikawa next to her couldn't help but cover her mouth and laugh, it was so funny.
She was wearing wide sunglasses at this time, when the takeaway brother came just now, she was afraid of being recognized, so she brought it, and she also asked the takeaway brother to stand at the door and wait, she never expected this kind of fun thing to happen.
Maori was embarrassed, but he could only force himself to laugh, "Then that, please come in, please come in......"
At this time, the takeaway brother appeared again, looking downstairs, as if he was looking at the lair of the big demon king, thinking that he had calmed down and wanted to take the money, but he was afraid of being eaten.
Actress Clara Midorikawa couldn't help but laugh again, and simply entered the Maori detective agency to avoid this funny scene.
Downstairs, the takeaway guy found that Maori was looking at him, and quickly retracted his head again.
The corners of Maori's mouth twitched until his face was seriously distorted, and he simply went back and took the money out, put it at the door, and then slammed the door shut.
Mori put the takeout in the kitchen, borrowed some fine tea leaves that Yamazaki had put here, and made two cups of green tea to serve.
"Thank you. β
"Ahem, that, Miss Midorikawa, I don't know ......"
"Step on ......"
"Huh...... Sorry, really sorry. β
Maori was about to speak when he heard footsteps on the stairs outside.
Needless to say, everyone knows that it was the takeaway brother who tiptoed upstairs, and then took the money and fled quickly.
Actress Midorikawa Clara couldn't hold back and laughed again, and quickly covered her mouth and apologized to Maori.
"Drink tea and drink tea. "Maori was embarrassed and covered it up with tea.
Actress Midorikawa Clarak casually took a sip of tea, and praised it with a retrospect: "Well, good tea." β
Maori cleaned up his mood and said, "Ahem, Miss Midorikawa, are you here to ......?"
"Here's the thing, Mr. Maori, what shall I say? Actress Midorikawa Clara frowned, obviously not tidying it up yet.
"You speak slowly, and you listen to you. "Maori is not hungry at all now, and she is delicious.
"Kensuke Katsuragi, the president of Star Magazine, is a friend of my fortune teller, Miss Lika Shijo, and can be said to be a big fan. β
"Well, and then what?"
"Mr. Maori, you are a big name, we know it well. β
"Ah, you've won the prize. β
Maori is modest in his mouth, but he is smiling in his heart, and his facial expression is blooming like a flower.
Actress Midorikawa Clara chuckled, "Editor Katsuragi is going to do an interview for my soothsayer, Miss Lika Purple Stripe, and he somehow thought of you, Detective Maori, and he is worried that you, the great detective, will not disdain such things as divination, so he asked me to ask for your opinion." β
Maori understood, "Interview with the detective and the soothsayer?"
"Yes, the interview between the detective and the soothsayer," the actress Clara Midorikawa sighed with a sad face, "Mr. Maori, you really don't think it's suitable." β
"No, no," Maori hurriedly said, "I agree, Miss Midorikawa, you are here in person, with such sincerity, what reason do I have not to agree." β
"Oh, thank you so much. β
"You're welcome. β
"So, if you're out of company, I'll call Katsuragi to inform the editors. β
"Oh, please. β
Actress Clara Midorikawa goes to make a phone call, and she chooses to go to the cafΓ© downstairs so that Maori can have lunch.
And without Xiu Se in front, Maori suddenly felt that his stomach couldn't stand it, and he hurriedly took the opportunity to have lunch. β¦β¦
About twenty minutes later, actress Clara Midorikawa came over with two men.
In his forties, the handsome and mature president Kensuke Katsuragi, in his thirties, the somewhat fat editor Masaso Tamura.
The two sides talked for a while, agreed on the content of the interview, and the time and place of the meeting, this Saturday, at the mansion of the fortune teller Miss Zitiao Lihua.
Kensuke Katsuragi didn't mention the expense, and Mori couldn't bear it in front of the actress Midorikawa Clara to maintain his gentlemanly demeanor.
However, after sending them away, Maori regretted that he didn't talk about the money, but it was too late to regret it, and he could only hope that he would get the appearance fee after the interview.
While Maori was cleaning up his desk, Conan came back from school.
"Uncle, are there any guests coming?
"It's not a commission, it's an interview. β
Conan was not interested, but looking at Maori's neat suit, he couldn't help but joke: "It must be a big beauty, with a good smell of perfume." β
"Long-winded. Maori shouted angrily.
"Hey, then I'm out. Conan slipped over to Dr. Asasa's house to discuss the trip with the others. β¦β¦
On Friday, July 18th, the exams were completed at Teidan High School.
At the end of school, Naoko Takei stepped onto the podium a little shyly and explained to everyone again about the trip to China.
On Monday morning, I picked up the notice form at the school, met with the school again in the afternoon, and then took a bus to Haneda Airport with the school's teachers and took a chartered flight of Entertainment Airlines to the capital of China.
After that, I told some precautions, such as the problem with the mobile phone.
After school, Naoko Takei talks to Midaiko again, making sure that they are leaving on Tuesdays, as Yamazaki and Midaiko still have to work on Monday nights.
This them, including Naoko Takei, Ran, Sonoko, Eiyu Hondo, Maori, Conan and many others. β¦β¦
Saturday, July 19th.
Maori traveled in formal attire, went to the mansion of the fortuneteller Miss Zitiao Lihua to attend interviews, and drove a rented high-end Fengtian SUV.
Although it was not commissioned, Yamazaki and Eiyu Hondo were also brought in as foils.
Mori also told Yamazaki to be optimistic about Eiyu Hondo.
Lan looked at Maori's posture as if he was going on a date, and was very uneasy, so he went together under the pretext of wanting to ask the fortune teller Miss Zitiao Lihua about something.
Conan didn't want to go, but since Ran was looking for a soothsayer, there was a chance that he would ask about Kudo Shinichi, so he had to listen. β¦β¦
