Chapter 993 Conan: It seems that he is completely finished
When Kogoro Mori and his group walked into the banquet gate, they saw the Sijing Rika who was surrounded by stars in the crowd from afar.
She was wearing a bright red dress, the golden necklace on her neck was paired with a gorgeous ruby in the middle, and her figure curve was completely highlighted by a slim-fitting dress, which was completely the most expensive classic socialite style.
In a black, white and gray formal dress, such a dress is undoubtedly destined to make her the focus of her sight. Judging from her high head, she is also very self-aware and proud of it.
"That's Lihua Sijing? I don't know why, but I feel like you can see your personality at a glance..." Conan looked at Lihua Sijing over the cover of several dining tables, with a very subtle expression.
"It should be very difficult to deal with... Hum?" Kogoro Maori complained in a low voice, heading towards the president of Sijing Group as the invitation. He soon discovered that there was a very familiar guy among the people around Sijing Rika.
"Akichiko? Why..." Ran Maori opened his eyes wide in surprise, "Has the Siyi family invited him too?"
"Maybe." Kogoro Mori curled his lips and felt unhappy, "I invited me and him too... Of course, I don't have much objection to this guy Akichiko, but these rich people are really..."
I don't know why, maybe it's because the price rises together affects the market price, he always feels like he's always tied to Akichiko recently.
Especially various cases related to wealthy families, even the carefree young lady's company, his appearance rate in Suzuki Group-related media is even higher than that of Kogoro Mouri.
Is this Akichigoro really too business, or is it that these rich people who like to compare prices? "Oh, Detective Maori, I'm lucky to be lucky." The president of Sijing, who had a small beard, was originally staring at his daughter with a doting gaze. After being reminded by his assistant, he turned around and found Kogoro Mori, and immediately greeted him with a smile, "Thank you for accepting our invitation to attend the banquet. This really makes the radiant here..."
Kogoro Mori nodded, dealing with his social rhetoric, and his mood became more and more complicated.
Since he has gradually become more and more expensive, even if he is just polite and greetings, everyone's words and attitudes have changed more and more.
In the past, someone would have said contemptuously and indifferently that he was just a private detective, but now this kind of look is almost gone.
This feeling is really...
"Where is, thank you for inviting me. I just solved a very simple commission for Miss Shiyi Rika. You are too exaggerating..."
Kogoro Mori entered the adult social time, and Conan, who was always at Akichigoro's side, quickly lost interest in continuing to listen.
He pulled the hem of Moriran's skirt, pointed to the other side, and then tiptoed away. Taking advantage of the opportunity to reach out to get the dessert on the table, he got to the crowd around Sijing Rihua.
Tang Ze is also in a social situation of an adult who is difficult to avoid, referring to his efforts to reject Sijing Lihua's closeness.
"At 18 years old, oh, yes, you're a high school detective." Sijing Rika smiled with a tooth when she saw the champagne she handed over, "It's not the age to drink. However, if you drink a glass secretly, we will treat it as if you didn't see it. What's the matter? Champagne is just not a strong wine."
"Thank you, but as a well-known detective, you should not do such things." Tang Ze firmly pushed away the slender goblet in her hand again, "You know, there are always many cameras and eyes staring at me, and this kind of thing will be worthy of being a TV star."
"Well, I almost forgot, you are a TV star." Sijing Rika raised her eyebrows and smiled even louder. "No, it doesn't count. I can only say that thanks to everyone's care and has received some media attention..." Tang Ze said more respect, but he rolled his eyes secretly inside.
It is obvious that reminding Sijing Lihua that his public character attributes will not only not dispel her ideas, but may also make her more interested.
Although Tang Ze had some predictions about this kind of development, and this posture was more like doing it on purpose than being bothered by her, deliberately trying to make Sijing Lihua deepen her interest, when the situation really developed according to his expectations, the greasy feeling was still very annoying.
For her, indulging in pleasure and being arrogant may not be considered a derogatory term. After all, she enjoys the dividends of power and money, enjoys the joy of being able to fight others with these resources, and is very proud of it. "It's not sincere if you are too modest, wise?" Sijing Rika stuffed the champagne that he refused to accept to the person who was following him. She stretched out her hand and grabbed his arm without saying a word, and said with a smile, "I'm very interested in your work and past commissions. Oh, I've watched your variety show on TV before. I'm not having any other purpose. Don't be so cautious. I'm really curious about famous detectives."
After she said, she turned her eyes and glanced at the other people behind her: "You guys, right?"
Her attitude is very clear. She doesn't want to play a solo show, and she needs a few supporting roles.
"Uh, yes, Mr. Akichi. I've heard of your name for a long time, but I didn't expect that I was more glorious and elegant. Mifune really introduced a powerful person to come over, and I'll give you some advice." The man standing behind her wearing glasses, who seemed a little dull, rushed up and stuffed a business card into Tang Ze's hand.
Whether he or other men surrounding Sijing Lihua, after hearing his name clearly, especially after knowing his youth, the hostility in his attitude became much less.
This is an 18-year-old boy. Even if Sijing Lihua favors him because of his appearance, when it comes to choosing a real marriage partner, even if she thinks, Sijing's family will not let her choose someone who has just reached the legal age of marriage. "Let's have a chat and have something to eat. Communicating with Rika will be very helpful to your career..." Yuji Nikaido, who is handsome, also took over and persuaded him.
"Hey, what are you doing?" Takuya Mifun jumped, maybe he couldn't bear to see anymore, so he reached out to wrap his hand around Tang Ze's shoulder, although he didn't dare to pull him back from Sijing Lihua, at least separated the few people who came over. "Do you want to bully the little brother I brought over? Aizhi is very busy at work and is a young man who focuses on his career. Don't think about taking him to have fun."
He had the intention of using Akichigoro to divert the attention of Shiyi Rika so that she could play with her as the object of playing with her, but he did not mean to push the child who was not good at playing with her. "Oh? Can you play with Sanshuo, who is dedicated to career?" Wujo Shu, who is meticulously erecting his hair, seemed to have finally found a reason and spoke sarcastically, "Aren't you two very happy playing in the club?"
"This is what you said, you can't make good friends in the yacht club, so don't be jealous of my popularity, okay?" Sanshuo said this half jokingly, and by the way, blocked Wujo Shuo's hostility towards Akichigoro.
Takuya Mifune's idea is very clear.
If it weren't for the invitation, this person wouldn't have appeared in this place at all, and it would be unnecessary to take him as a competitor to run.
Wuzhao Xiu is a smart person, and you should understand it with a few hints.
"Yach Club?" Rika Siyi's attention was completely on Tang Ze, as if she turned a blind eye to the people around her. She smiled and patted Tang Ze's arm, "Do you like yachts very much? That's not bad. Our family also has its own yachts, and we can go out together next time..."
"Rika Siyi's attention was completely on Tang Ze's side, and it's time to cut the cake."
Rika Siyi's words were not finished, but the president of Siyi Group had finished greetings with Kogoro Mori, reached out to greet his daughter and officially started the banquet process. "Ah, the banquet is about to begin. Let's talk later. It's wise. Have fun tonight."
Lihua Sijing finally let go of Tang Ze's hand and glanced at his face with some regret.
This is a boy who is not easy to grasp. He seems to have a principled bottom line. He is not a guy who just hooks his fingers and takes the bait.
But it doesn't matter, pulling is also a kind of fun.
After adjusting her expression, she adjusted the fabric on her shoulders and turned around and walked towards the middle of the venue.
"Here, Dad."
As soon as the protagonist of the banquet left, the attention of the people surrounding Tang Ze immediately pulled away from him and followed him to the center.
Conan, who was stunned while watching, dared to poke his head out and look at Akichigoro inquiry.
Hiss, it sounds like Zhizhi was not invited by the Sijing family, it seems that a relative from the Sijing family introduced him to the banquet out of kindness.
It's right. If Sijing Lihua didn't have the factor, as a private detective, he might have really found a lot of customers at this banquet. There are indeed many rich people here.
No mistakes, one poem, one post, one content, one in 6, one book, one bar, one read!
That being said, Mingzhi is a person related to the organization after all, and it is very likely that the code name member called Kumer himself did not completely face Mingzhi as an enemy, mainly because of Tang Ze's guarantee, which made this person seem a little shaky.
But this kind of swaying is not very reliable in itself.
Akitoro may have been as Tang Ze said, considering the past connections and being affected by drugs and experiments, he will not hurt Tang Ze. He may also take a little care of the people he knows, but it is completely unknown what he will do in more cases.
From his past information about the various words he received about this code name, if Akitoro was really Kumer, the contrast between this guy's appearance and his true inner self would probably be very scary.
Looking at the entangled state of Sijing Lihua's almost sexual harassment, Conan felt as if he had seen the insect ants that were attracted by the beautiful bait and flew towards the insect-eating plants, and couldn't help but sweat for her.
"Sorry, sorry, Rika is so troubled by you." When everyone around him left, Takumi Mifun put down his hand slapping Tang Ze and lowered his voice, "I didn't expect her to be like this. Although her personality is a bit problematic, she was not so exaggerated before."
"...It doesn't matter."
Tang Ze adjusted his watch and tidied up the coat that was torn by her, and the smile at the corner of his mouth did not change much.
The willful and arbitrary young lady clearly celebrated her birthday, but she was secretly coerced by some dark history. Although she looked very happy, her anger and malice must be very strong.
People who have never been suppressed are forced to accept threats from others. This kind of frustration makes people want to go crazy, understand, and understand.
"It's not your problem, Mr. Mifune. But what you said on the road is really tactful."
"Well, at least Rika is really beautiful, right? If you don't mind her personality, actually..."
"No need."
"Yes, you won't be able to find a beautiful girl..."
As Akichigoro gave the steps and jokes in good condition, the atmosphere between the two was gentle, and they were joking while walking towards the table where the cake was placed.
However, Conan watched him slowly tidy up the wrinkles on his coat, and no matter how he looked, he felt that he was not only smoothing the fabric, but also as if he was disgustingly smoothing the place he had touched by Sijing Rika.
Conan followed the crowd and walked towards the direction of the cake, and couldn't help but worry.
If Lihua Sijing continues to persist in this way, she will probably really anger Mingzhi.
Hiss, do you want to think of a way, don't let her get closer to wise, saving a life is better than building a seven-level pagoda...
The crowd surrounded the surroundings, and the lights in the banquet hall were ignited one by one with the candles on the cake, dimming, leaving only the Sijing Lihua standing next to the cake with a proud expression, illuminated by more than twenty candles on the cake.
The red dress on her body was like a dahlia stretching out her petals under the candlelight, and the rubies and gold jewelry on her neck and earlobes were even more brilliant, illuminating her. "Lihua, happy birthday! Happybirthdaytoyou!"
The crowd didn't say the congratulations very neatly, which caused everyone to chuckle with kindness, so Lihua Sijing also laughed, bent down, and blew out the candles on the cake.
This should have been quite beautiful, but I don't know if it was because of the bad character she showed that made people preconceived. When Conan looked at the shadow of the candle light source from the bottom up, he always felt that this action was not like making a pious wish, but more like blowing out other people's dreams indifferently and maliciously.
"Lihua, congratulations on your 24th year." As the lights came on, the president of Sijing walked over with a smile and held his daughter's shoulder.
"Thank you, dad." Lihua Sijing let him show off and turned herself to everyone, with a bright smile on her face. "Thank you very much for taking the time to go up the mountain and attend the girl's birthday party. Please continue to provide support and advice to Sijing Group in the future!" The president of Sijing said, patting his daughter's shoulder. In addition, the current occasion makes the meaning of his words clear enough.
He completely tied Sijing Lihua and Sijing Group together and was working hard to express this willingness to inherit. He was almost confirming that whoever married Sijing Lihua would be equivalent to gaining the entire Sijing Group's statement. "It sounds like it's completely finished, Sijing Group." Conan, who was not willing to comment loudly, could only complain in his heart.
