Chapter 324: Moneyism

At the center of the war situation, Ji Haihong was on a video call with Ulfrik.

"What's the matter, W, I see that your Yin Tang is black and your complexion is not good, is there any battle recently?" Ji Haihong teased.

Ulfrick glanced at him: "Fart, what is the black hall, of course it's a little tired, it's just some trivial things, how are you doing lately?" ”

"Let's eat a trench and grow wise, haha," Ji Haihong was in a very good mood, "The war in a peaceful society is not the same as the war we had at that time. ”

Ulfrik said approvingly: "Now, you have really matured a lot, the Ministry of Intelligence has made new progress, and we have found traces of Pate, which is a little suspicious. ”

"But it doesn't hurt to say it."

"The first time the Department of Intelligence found out about Pate was in the United States, and according to the information provided by the police, he is now in Japan, so the FBI assisted us in investigating his whereabouts, do you know what he is doing now? Guess what. ”

Ulfrick rarely whets an appetite. Ji Haihong guessed suspiciously: "Uh...... His specialty is to escape, is he responsible for picking up the members of the organization? ”

"Half, we found that he often goes in and out of the headquarters of major banks, and he is very popular in the circle of financial predators, and as for the members of the organization, it is like a side business, have you found that he has any talent in economics before?"

"Nope." Ji Haihong pouted unhappily, Ulfrik didn't make it clear, but he knew it. Those who do this must be rich, rich and rich. As for life, not to mention, the door is a mansion, the door is Lincoln, and the bodyguards are eating the delicacies of the mountains and seas.

Hehe, it's quite moist.

"There's a discovery from the Intelligence Department," Ulfrick said, "do you remember the time when you were noticed by the Order, in the beginning? ”

In the beginning? Oh, it seems that some people are noticing themselves. But these people are already dead, what does it have to do with Pate?

"It's okay with Pate, but their work is the same as Pate's, we looked into the past and found that the organization has been drawing huge amounts of money, and they have never stopped this process for so many years, and Pate's appearance has accelerated this process."

"Isn't the first priority of a criminal group like the Black Cloak Organization to collect money, what's all the fuss, who will have trouble with money? Who is afraid of money? ”

"Yes, but it's too much money for a criminal syndicate," Ulfrik said. ”

"How many?"

Ulfrick spat out a string of numbers, causing Ji Haihong to gasp.

Astronomical, really astronomical. With so much money at its disposal, one has to wonder if the organization also has a place in the international financial community.

"There are many sources of these funds, some of them are earned from their own companies, and some of them are earned through black work, and there are not a few cases of extortion, fraud, embezzlement, etc., and the organization uses special means to make money from the mouths of many predators, and there are many well-known enterprises that are also victims." Ulfrik said.

Ji Haihong stretched his waist: "If the FBI and CIA really want to deal with the organization, they have to be cautious, they will move the whole body with one shot, and if they have so much money and capital, if they fall all at once, it will cause an earthquake." ”

"So, the Ministry of Intelligence is currently investigating, what does the organization want to do with the money, unlike ordinary wealth accumulation, the organization's approach is steady and secretive, there is a goal, a plan, a phase, and we suspect that the organization may be carrying out some kind of activity that requires a huge amount of money to support."

Ji Haihong pointed to himself: "For example, like me? ”

"Oh, probably, I don't think they found out that the poison has a smaller function, how is David?"

Ji Haihong said with satisfaction: "As you can see, I have often found him a job recently, to test his combat ability, looking at Japan, there are few who can fight him, but unfortunately he can't meet a strong enemy, I will let him fight to the death with Erebos, see the result." ”

……

Xiaolan and Yuanzi receive an exciting invitation, that is, Shiliang Zhenchun has finally moved. Moving from a luxurious hotel suite to a beautiful seaside courtyard is a pleasure to think about.

To celebrate, Sera invites everyone to throw a party in their new home. Among those invited were Koran, Sonoko, Dr. Asasa, all the members of the Junior Detective Corps, Kogoro Mori and Toru Amuro.

Unfortunately, Uncle Mori had no interest in the children's affairs, so he sent Amuro to attend and congratulate Sera on his move.

"What a beautiful place!" The well-informed garden is full of praise for Sera's new home. The house has its back to the beach and comes with a garage. The balcony at the back has direct access to the sea, making it easy for residents to enjoy the sea bathing. Three palm trees adorn the house like red fruits on a cake, which is very beautiful.

"You can hear the sound of the sea!" Ayumi said excitedly.

The sound of sea water? The speaker has no intention, but the listener has the intention. Xiaolan suddenly thought of Shiliang, and always felt that Shiliang had something to do with the sound of the sea.

Sera went out to greet him warmly, but Mary did not show up.

"Sera-chan, you really have the foresight to choose such a good place," said Yuanzi, "but the price of this house, uh, is Shiliang's family really rich?" ”

Shiliang smiled mysteriously, she looked at Ji Haihong, and did not answer Yuanzi's question.

welcomed everyone into the house, and everyone was stunned. A lovely little blonde loli wears a small apron and puts the tea set on the table.

"This is a distant relative of mine, her name is Mary, she is from the United States, and she sent it to me because her parents are busy with work," Sera said, "Come, Mary, and say hello to everyone." ”

Mary greeted everyone with some twists: "I'm Mary, please take care of me." ”

It's so cute! Yuanzi's throat was sweet, her brain was hot, and she couldn't help but rush over to hug this cute little Lori - fortunately, she was stopped by Xiaolan in time.

Mary is indeed cute, with a childlike face and a suitable hairstyle, but the combination of mature eyes and this temperament forms a unique charm.

"At first glance, it looks very similar to you, but if you take a closer look, there is actually a gap." Ji Haihong commented.

"Oh? Gap? Gray Yuan was a little dissatisfied, "Then may I ask, who is the gap between who and whom?" ”

Oops, the wrong word! Ji Haihong immediately changed his words: "Of course, there is a gap between you and her, you are so beautiful and so wise, don't look at her with the eyes of a guinea pig." ”

Gray Yuan once asked Ji Haihong to collect samples of Mary's blood and hair, but Ji Haihong always lost face and was not easy to ask. Why don't you call Brother Cat tomorrow and ask him to do this?

"This guy shouldn't know about me." Gray Yuan asked.

Ji Haihong assured: "Don't worry, Conan and I are not stupid. ”

Suddenly, he remembered that Brother Cat also knew about Gray Yuan. So will he tell Sera and Mary? Probably not.

But you're embarrassed to say in the garden, hurry up and put away your saliva. Dare to laugh at Shiliang for being Zhengtaikong.,Look what you look like.,Authentic Lolita!

Since Shiliang knew that Shuichi Akai was still alive, he ran to Kudo's house twice in three days. In addition to asking questions related to reasoning, he will also listen to Okiya tell some interesting stories that happened after his "death". Sometimes Shiliang would complain about how sad she was after hearing about her brother's death.

It's really satisfying.

Judy and James were aware of the situation, but as long as there was no interference with the progress of the investigation, he was left with it.

For this party, Sera prepared a lot of food. Amuro Toru helped her a lot as a waitress at Polo's Cafe. Conan, who knows the inside story, is really tired, and your circle is so messy. Amuro didn't know that Sera was really Akai Shuichi's sister, and Sera didn't know what grudge Amuro had against his eldest brother.

Seeing these two people talking and laughing, Conan was very uncomfortable.

However, the pizza and desserts prepared by Amuro are so delicious that you can't stop it.

Mary's appearance was previously negotiated between Sera, Okiya, and Conan. You can't always hide it from everyone, and it's easy to arouse suspicion if it's discovered. It is also a good choice to take advantage of the opportunity to let her come out and meet everyone.

However, Sera's excuse is the same as Conan's excuse for staying at Ran's house. Conan will never forget the teasing look on her face when she said this excuse.

Toru Amuro has a good relationship with Sera because Sera had taken risks to save him before. So in the face of the sudden appearance of distant relatives, he should not be suspicious.

The FBI will take care of everything.

The highlight of the party, Miss Mary, got everyone's attention. The Lori of the garden can't control her anymore, and even wants to pull her to be her godsister (sure enough, it's better to be a godsister than a sister). Ayumi and the other little ghosts gave a warm welcome to the new young sister, and only Xiaolan noticed that something was wrong: "Why, Mary always coughs?" Is she sick? ”

Mary sat on Sera's lap and was about to answer, but was rushed to answer by Sera. She hugged Mary and said, "Yes, yes, Mary is a notoriously sick child in our house—oops! ”

"What's wrong, Sister Seliang?" Ayumi looked at her strangely.

Shiliang laughed: "It's okay, it's okay." ”

It's okay - it's fake, how could Ji Haihong not see it. Mary secretly pinched Shiliang's thigh and signaled her not to talk nonsense.

"Ahem, anyway, I'm a dutiful big sister (oops!) In the face of such a cute and sick sister (ouch! It's not easy (hey, hey!). )。 "Seliang's laughter is worse than crying.

As long as you do not die, you will do it to death.

No matter how these people made a fuss, Ji Haihong sat next to Amuro with a piece of pizza in his mouth: "What is the result?" ”

"Don't say it, the barbecue really works, are you free at night?" Toru Amuro said.

――TBC――

The world line is beginning to wrap up.
