Late at night in Tokyo.

Outside the window, the city is brightly lit, and the noise of hustle and bustle is faintly heard.

"Okay, Miss Su Fang, we'll see you tomorrow, and the location will be at my detective agency, in the 5-chome of Rice Flower Town."

Fujino hung up the phone and breathed a sigh of relief.

In that case, we can talk about the matter of entrusting endorsements tomorrow.

Although I don't know what the other party's character is, judging from Yoko Okino's introduction, the other party should be a well-known philanthropist.

The reputation of this kind of philanthropist in society should be very high.

"But then again, how do I feel like the name is familiar?"

Fujino put the phone away and muttered in confusion.

In this world, what can leave an impression on him is generally the characters involved in the original plot.

Either the murderer or the victim.

But he couldn't remember it for a while.

Conan's plot is too long, and there are more than a thousand episodes in the TV version, and it is impossible for him to remember every episode.

In addition to some classic cases, there are also key plots, if there are no key hints, he can't recall for a while which paragraph this [Su Fanghongzi] corresponds to......

"My brain is a little messy......"

Fujino pinched his forehead, feeling a little pain in his head.

After thinking for a moment, he decided to search the Internet for more information about this Su Fanghongzi.

It's not just to see if you can find some key clues that recall the plot.

And just to find out the way, to see the reputation of the guy who is about to entrust him with the spokesperson.

If it is really found out that his reputation is not very good, he can also take advantage of the situation tomorrow and directly push it off on the grounds that he has no time.

…………

"Su Fang Hongzi, the Red Society......"

Fujino leaned back against the head of the bed, resting his notebook on his lap, his fingers tapping rapidly on the keyboard.

Soon, he found information about Su Fanghongzi.

Although the search technology in this era is not very good, the search for this kind of celebrity is still relatively simple.

Judging from the search results, this Su Fanghongzi is indeed a big star, as Yoko Okino said.

In the early years, because of her bright singing voice, she was called "The Canary of the East", and she was a representative of an era in the neon music scene.

However, just fifteen years ago, she suddenly retired from the music scene and established a brokerage company called [Red Society].

Dedicated to commercial charity performances and other means, we are committed to helping children who have lost their families in traffic accidents......

As for the black material that Yuko Ikezawa said, it's another matter.

Almost 20 years ago, Su Fanghongzi's female assistant accidentally hit and killed a woman while driving her car, and committed suicide after a hit-and-run.

The Red Society was established shortly after the death of this female assistant, so the public and the news media often used this incident as a reason to criticize Su Fanghongzi.

However, the information is still somewhat controversial, and even if it is reported, there is no actual evidence.

Fujino looked around and felt that this Su Fanghongzi's reputation was very good, and he might be able to endorse it.

…………

In the early morning, the sky was hazy and bright.

Overnight, snow began to fall outside.

Everything in the city is dressed in silver, like a married bride.

Winter goes to spring, autumn comes to summer, and the world of Kexue doesn't know how many winters have been ushered in.

Fujino has long been used to it.

He stood in front of the window of the detective agency, dressed in an old-fashioned suit drawn from the system, looking out the window at the falling snowflakes, and took a sip of hot tea in the teacup in his hand, feeling warm.

"Knock knock!"

At that moment, there was a knock on the door.

"Are you coming?"

Fujino was not surprised to hear this.

He placed the teacup to the window, turned around, skimmed the living room, and pushed the door open.

What appeared in front of him was an old man with gray hair, wearing a long black dress and a red shawl.

Behind her, there was also a middle-aged woman in a gray suit, short black hair, glasses, and a somewhat old look.

Fujino invited the two into the living room, sat down on the sofa, and began to talk.

After some understanding, Fujino learned that this white-haired old man was Su Fanghongzi.

And behind her is her assistant, Kazuyo Inada.

The purpose of their coming here this time was not for anything else, but to discuss matters related to the endorsement of the charity gala......

Su Fanghongzi sat on the sofa opposite, and her words were full of sincerity: "We really hope that Detective Fujino can endorse this charity gala, after all, no one is more suitable than 'Light of Hope' to bring hope to children who have lost their families." ”

"A ray of hope?"

Fujino's eyebrows frowned slightly when he heard this.

He is a little different Sister Li, why does he have another title for some reason.

Ray of Hope...... It feels a bit of a middle two.

"Rays of hope is the theme of our charity gala next week."

The female assistant on the side interjected: "Because the theme of this party is the light of hope, we think that there is no better person to afford this title than the heroic detective who just prevented a plane crash." ”

"That's why we need Detective Fujino's endorsement so badly."

Su Fanghongzi didn't sell it, and directly talked about the point: "If Detective Fujino is willing to endorse this charity gala, our Red Society will pay five million yen as your endorsement fee." ”

Fujino couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this.

As soon as you open your mouth, it's 5 million yen...... This grandmother's shot is wrong, it's just a fight with the Suzuki family.

Are all those who do charity so rich?

Fujino was a little puzzled...... But come to think of it, it's just as well.

Now he can be said to have become famous.

In the previous high-altitude murder case, in order to cover up the scandal of his own co-pilot's drug trafficking, a certain JAL used public relations methods to shift the attention of this incident to the detective who saved the life of the whole plane.

As the detective, he has now become almost a household name.

Although these days have passed, his news is still being broadcast on TV......

In other words, in fact, the small amount of money spent on hiring him will be more than the income obtained.

Fujino thought for a moment, and then readily agreed to this endorsement: "Since Miss Su Fang is so sincere, then I will take the ...... of this endorsement commission."

"But I don't have any contract here to accept endorsement commissions, this time I entrust, I can't issue a contract for the time being, but I will definitely participate in the charity gala, if there is any work that requires my cooperation, you can contact by phone."

"Thank you very much."

Hearing this, Su Fanghongzi stood up and bowed to Fujino: "If you have a deposit, I will ask my assistant to call your card tomorrow......"

"No tomorrow."

Fujino interrupted Su Fanghongzi and smiled, "We support mobile payment here. ”

"Do you support mobile payments?"

Su Fanghongzi couldn't help but be stunned when she saw this, and then beckoned: "Hedai." ”

"Yes."

The female assistant answered, and neatly took out a bank card from the bag she straddled on her chest.

Bite!

1,000,000 yen arrived!

[Current system balance: 6,680,000 yen]

After paying the deposit, Su Fanghongzi suddenly asked Fujino, "By the way, Detective Fujino, do you have time the day after tomorrow?" ”

"The day after tomorrow ......"

Fujino was stunned when he heard this.

Ask him if he has time for anything?

An old lady in her sixties......

He's not that heavy-mouthed.

Fujino thought for a moment, didn't give a reply, and instead asked rhetorically, "Is there any other preparation work?" ”

"That's ......"

Su Fanghongzi explained: "Many of the children sponsored by our Red Society are fans of Detective Fujino, and if you have time the day after tomorrow, you can take the time to go to the orphanage, and those children should be very happy." ”

The female assistant next to her continued: "At that time, we will also arrange for the daily sales TV station to shoot and report at the same time." ”

"I see."

Hearing this, Fujino suddenly realized, "The day after tomorrow, I should have time, just let me know when the time comes." ”

…………

In the car leaving from the detective agency.

Kazudai Inada was driving, looking a little worried: "Teacher, is there really no problem with the 5 million yen commission money?" That's a lot......"

"It's okay."

Su Fanghongzi's eyes flashed with a hint of meaning: "The remaining four million yen, I am sure to stay in three days." ”

Kazuyo Inada is still skeptical: "But ......"

"It's nothing, I can see that although this kind of person looks snobbish on the surface, in fact, he is very gentle."

Su Fanghongzi leaned back on the chair, as if she had a chance to win: "What's more, even if the five million is really lost, the donations we can get will be much more than this...... We were able to take advantage of this opportunity and be able to achieve a win-win situation. ”

…………

At noon, the snow stopped.

After Fujino sent off the two clients, he had nothing to do for the time being, so he temporarily took over Akemi Miyano's work and let her go shopping with Gray Hara.

Soon, Fujino received a new order.

It's a little couple.

After Fujino confirmed the content of the order, he quickly mixed the drink and handed it to the young couple: "Snow King Couple's Secret Suit, please take it." ”

"Okay......

The couple took the plastic bag containing the drink, paused, and asked with some curiosity, "That, is Fujino Detective Fujino?" ”

"You know me?"

Fujino raised his eyes and glanced at the two of them in surprise.

"We're both your detective fans!"

The two looked a little excited, and one of the boys said, "I just saw the news on TV yesterday that you saved a plane." ”

"Well, could you please sign the cups for both of us?"

The girl looked a little embarrassed to speak.

"It turned out to be a detective ......"

Fujino suddenly realized when he heard this, then took out a black graffiti pen from his pocket, skillfully signed his signature on the cup, and then handed it to the two of them: "This should be okay, right?" ”

"Uh-huh!"

The two nodded with satisfaction, and said excitedly before leaving: "It's rare to be able to drink the drink that the detective made for us......

"It's really memorable."

"I'm a bit well-known right now......"

Fujino looked at the two people who left the store and couldn't help but chuckle.

Unconsciously, there were more people looking for him to sign autographs.

What should I do if I feel a little unwell?

But after thinking about it, Fujino thought about it again, and felt that he had discovered a new market.

If you come up with a drink cup of [Snow King Ice City Detective Fujino Limited Collaboration], change the flavor, and sign a few names, then the price of a drink should skyrocket by a few hundred yen......
