Conan: I'm Not a Model Worker in the Winery

Chapter 224 Twin Skyscrapers
Tokyo, Nishitama City.

"Wow! The scenery here looks really nice~"

Xiaolan looked out the window through the glass and said, "You can see Mount Fuji directly from here!"

"Isn't it great?" A woman with an air of wealth and nobility smiled and said, "This was also the intention when this skyscraper was built... Only on the upper floors of this building can you see such a beautiful view."

Mio Tokiwa, the chairman of Tokiwa Company and a college classmate of Kogoro Mori.

For mysterious reasons, she invited Kogoro Mori to visit this "twin skyscraper", and in a week the building will officially open for business.

Both buildings are over 50 stories high, and there is only one connecting passage halfway between the buildings. It can be said that it is a huge expense...

Moreover, the functions of the two buildings are even more different, and once the buildings are built, they will be equivalent to monopolizing the beautiful view of Mount Fuji.

"Oh, by the way, I have to meet a distinguished guest, so everyone can enjoy the tour first."

Tokiwa Mio glanced at the time, said something hurriedly, and went downstairs.

Leaving behind Kogoro Mori and Ran Mori, and...

All members of the Junior Detective League except Hiroki, plus Miss Suzuki Sonoko.

"I say, why do we have to bring these little devils here!" Veins on Kogoro Mouri's forehead were throbbing.

It was clearly his former beautiful female classmate who invited him to visit, but he ended up bringing so many cumbersome things with him...

Mao Lilan didn't think there was anything wrong with it. She looked at her father and said with a smile: "What's wrong with it? Besides, you can see that they are obviously very happy!"

Maori Kogoro:"……"

These little brats are happy, but he is unhappy, because it affects his ability to look at his beautiful female classmates...

Forget it, forget it, it’s fate.

Next to him, Conan looked at Mount Fuji and marveled at the generosity of the Tokiwa Group.

I feel like I've been through too much recently, it's nice to relax once in a while...

"How do you fight the Great Detective? You look a little tired."

While the children were chasing and playing here, Haibara Ai walked up to Conan and they looked at Mount Fuji in the distance together.

"Aren't you going to play with them?" Conan looked weak and had a pair of dead eyes.

Huiyuan Ai glanced at him speechlessly, "Please, I'm not really a child, I don't have that kind of thought."

Conan glanced at him, "Really? You acted like a kid in the car the day before yesterday."

She smiles so sweetly, even better at pretending than him... She usually looks cold when facing them.

"Speaking of which, I really want to beat you up."

Huiyuan Ai suddenly revealed a very friendly smile, but her teeth kept grinding: "Why did you suddenly call me at that time?"

"……what?"

A big question mark appeared on Conan's head.

"Why can't I call you?"

"Your senses are really dull." Huiyuan Ai taunted mercilessly, her eyes full of disdain, "You have come into contact with those people more than once, but you still can't sense their breath."

Conan's expression suddenly changed: "Hey, Haibara, you're not saying..."

"Hey, that day, the organized people were on that bus..." Huiyuan Ai narrowed her eyes and revealed a strange smile at the corners of her mouth, "Yes, they were among the seven people who got on the bus later."

Before Conan could ask, Huihara Ai grabbed Conan's ear, with an expression similar to Gin's:
"So, you asked me what was wrong at that time...it totally made that person notice me!"

"It hurts, it hurts! How should I know? Besides, that person also noticed me..."

Conan felt pain and hurriedly tried to pull Haibara Ai's hand away.

Huihara Ai took a deep breath, let go of Conan's ear, and drooped her eyelids. "Anyway, I was definitely noticed that day, and it might have been one of the people who talked to me... That's why I pretended to be a child."

Conan rubbed his ears, a little puzzled: "But how can you be sure that he was among the people who got on the bus later? I remember that the person who got on the bus after Mr. Lin was also very suspicious... The robbers didn't even ask for his mobile phone at that time, and he disappeared afterwards..."

"Probably not."

Huiyuan Ai did not deny it directly, looking at the snow-capped mountains in the distance, "Because I only sensed those people when they got on the bus from behind, so I was sure it must be among them."

"And it is very likely that they are among the people you usually hang out with."

Haibara Ai's expression was unusually serious, and Conan also realized the seriousness of the problem.

"In short, I will try to reduce the frequency of my appearances." Huihara Ai closed her eyes. "After all, I am a traitor on the run from the organization, and you are the 'dead'. The organization will definitely pay more attention to me than you... and the organization must have photos of my childhood. If they send out some people who are familiar with me, then even if I become smaller, it will harden their suspicion."

"Haiyuan..."

"So, please tell the doctor to stop taking me out for no reason."

After saying this, Huiyuan Ai slowly walked towards the Teitan Sanbao, "Isn't it better for both of us if I stay at home alone to research the antidote? Also, you should also consider what you can do if you recover your original body."

After saying that, Haibara Ai stopped paying attention to Conan and went to sit on the sofa beside her.

Conan looked at Haibara Ai, whose expression didn't change at all, but he had a subtle feeling in his heart.

What on earth is Huiyuan thinking about?

She always seems like she doesn't care about anything... He used to suspect that she had other intentions, but later he found out that Huibara simply didn't want to do anything. Apart from developing the antidote, she never left the house except for going to school and the few times the doctor took them on outings.

Just as Conan was thinking, a man in a suit walked out of the elevator. He saw the Teitan Sanbao playing and fighting at a glance, "Kids, this is not the place to play around!"

“Ah? Yes!”

After being stopped by the adults, Yuantai and his companions immediately stopped chasing and stood still obediently.

"Where are your adults? This is a place to receive guests. It's not right to be so noisy."

The man who came up should be a staff member in the building, and he was very patient with the children.

"I'm sorry, we brought these children here..."

Mao Lilan hurried over to explain.

Maori Kogoro also came over scratching his head with an apologetic smile on his face: "Ah! Sorry, sorry, I have caused you trouble... I will definitely teach these guys a lesson later!"

His domineering words successfully attracted the contempt of Ayumi and the others.

"What? Uncle only knows how to bully children!"

"That's it!"

"It's wrong to bully the weak!"

The veins on Maori Kogoro's forehead were throbbing:
What a bunch of twisted ideas these little brats have!
The man in a suit who was educating the children looked up and was slightly startled when he saw Maori Kogoro. Then he said in surprise, "Ah! You are the one who was invited by the chairman, the famous..."
