Conan: The Man Behind the Romance

Chapter 269: I hope Chiyo’s concubine Eri!
Yingsheng looked at Vodka's eyes carefully, but unfortunately the sunglasses blocked his sight perfectly, making him unable to see whether Vodka had a pair of small eyes.

I could only shake my head in disappointment: "Don't hold your hopes too high. I'm not sure either."

Vodka quickly asked, "What happened? Did you see Shirley with your own eyes?"

"No, it was the private detective I told you about this afternoon. Remember, his name is Toru Amuro? I asked him to find someone to help me develop software, and he found a software engineer named Hara Yoshiaki. I sent someone from the Sumiyoshi-kai to visit him this afternoon, but he reported back halfway that he had encountered a suspicious target who looked like Shirley. Unfortunately, he didn't catch her, so she got into a black BMW and slipped away."

Yingsheng said rather frustratedly.

Amuro Toru?!

Hara Jiaming?!

Vodka thought, aren't these two people members of the organization? One is a code name member, and the other is a peripheral member who has been a little restless recently. Is it just a coincidence that these two people are together? Or is there another reason?

But this is not the most important thing at the moment. Vodka asked hurriedly: "What is the license plate number of the black BMW? You should have someone remember it."

"Shinagawa 300あ17-45, BMW X3."

What Yingsheng was talking about was, of course, the car that escaped from the abandoned warehouse area. They were probably lucky and stayed far away, so they didn't enjoy the technological baptism of Medicine A.

Vodka quickly took out his phone and contacted the intelligence team to investigate the matter immediately. The winery was really efficient and replied in a short time:

This is a car with a cloned license plate. The vehicle registered with the real license plate number is a Suzuki Every, and its owner is an eighty-year-old man.

"There's definitely something wrong!"

Vodka looked excited. Although he failed to locate Shirley's whereabouts in one fell swoop, since there was something fishy about this car, the possibility of it being related to Shirley was even greater.

He thought for a moment, gritted his teeth, walked aside, called Rum, and asked him to investigate further.

Although Vodka is very unhappy with this guy now because of Binga's incident, the organization's business is more important after all, so he can only bow his head temporarily.

After hanging up the phone, Vodka felt quite unhappy, so he walked back to his seat, picked up a few glasses and drank them all in one gulp.

"what--!"

clang!
Putting down the glass heavily, Vodka looked at Yingsheng and said solemnly: "Your news is really timely, it is a great help."

Yingsheng smiled and said, "It's just luck. Can the organization find it with just a license plate?"

Vodka shook his head: "I don't know about that, maybe."

The organization has undercover agents in the police force who can check road surveillance, so maybe it's possible.

Not long after, a Yakuza knocked on the door and came in with a large bowl full of strawberry pudding. Huaying Hope took a bite and her eyes narrowed with joy.

"It's delicious, where did you buy it?"

The old Yakuza said somewhat reservedly: "The shops outside are all closed, I picked the lock and did it myself."

Yingsheng also tasted it and gave him a thumbs up: "Go out and open a store, as long as it is within the scope of Beihua Town, I will provide the start-up capital."

"........."

Vodka took a look at the trembling pudding and couldn't help but feel curious: "Give me some too."

"No!"×2
"........."

The strange midnight snack ended successfully. Yingsheng brought Huaying to catch up with the second half of the night. The Sumiyoshi-kai and the Yinyue group joined together. Everyone felt uncomfortable in their hearts. In the end, they could only convince themselves to vent all their unhappiness on the Nican-kai.

As a result, Tokyo is quite lively tonight.

The moonlight faded, the east gradually brightened, and the night passed in a flash, in Chiyoko's quaint courtyard.

Chiyo was naturally awakened by the singing of birds in the courtyard. She slowly opened her eyes and her consciousness gradually became clear. She suddenly felt that there seemed to be someone beside her.

Having someone break into your house without permission, or even invade your bed, is definitely an extremely terrifying thing.

But Chiyoko was not at all panicked, she just had a slight palpitation in her heart and tilted her head slightly.

Not only because she knew that only one person could come in while she slept.

What's more, I felt that familiar sense of security.

Her eyes met that person, and sure enough, it was the person she was thinking of, the gentle smile in her dream.

In an instant, Chiyoko felt as if her whole body had melted, merging into a pool of spring water and flowing into his eyes.

"The matter has been resolved, Chiyoko. I'll borrow your place to take a rest for a while. Call me at 10 a.m., okay?" Yingsheng said.

Chiyoko's silky eyes were about to drip with tears, and she said in a resentful tone: "You came to someone's bedroom just to borrow a place to sleep?"

"Sorry, Chiyoko, I have other things to do during the day, maybe next time."

Yingsheng, who was lying on his side, put down his arm that was supporting his face, lay down flat, and slowly closed his eyes: "You are the president of the Tokyo branch of Sumiyoshi-kai, and you always have been. No one can touch you. Do whatever you want, and don't worry about encountering resistance."

The sound gradually faded, and Yingsheng fell asleep peacefully.

There was a flash of disappointment in Chiyoko's eyes, but when she heard Yingsheng's breathing quickly calmed down, a hint of pity rose in her eyes again.

Ying has been running around all night for her own affairs and is now very tired.

Thinking of this, she immediately withdrew her hand that was originally stretched out to gently touch Yingsheng's cheek, and stood up and put on her clothes very quietly, for fear of disturbing Yingsheng.

result……

"Hey, you walk without making any sound?"

Chiyoko gently pushed open the Japanese sliding door. A girl in teddy bear pajamas fell into the house before she could react. She appeared in front of her, rubbing her head and mumbling.

Chiyoko looked puzzled. Where did this child come from and why did the guard let her in?
Moreover, was she eavesdropping on what was happening in the room just now?
Chiyoko blushed for some reason. Fortunately, Hotaru had just rejected her. Thinking of this, she made a hushing gesture to the little bear girl and pointed outside, wanting her to go out before talking to her, so as not to disturb Hotaru's rest.

Huaying Xiwang nodded quickly, but did not go out. He just waved to Chiyoko, asking her to lean over and listen carefully, and whispered:
"I am the older brother's sister. I want to sleep with him. Please don't disturb us."

"........."

Chiyoko felt that this sentence was grammatically incorrect.

But of course she guessed that the "big brother" was referring to Yingsheng, because Huaying hoped that he had already walked over there as soon as he finished speaking.

Chiyoko subconsciously wanted to reach out to stop her, but Huaying looked back with a pitiful look on her face.

Chiyoko's hand stopped in mid-air.

Such a small and cute girl really looks like Hotaru's sister. Although this person has never appeared in the information, maybe it was just an omission?

Huaying wanted to bow to Chiyoko, so she tiptoed to the bed and quickly got into bed.

She looked at Yingsheng's sleeping face with a sly smile on her face. Then, she fell asleep herself while smiling.

"..."

Chiyoko turned and walked out, gently closing the sliding door, thinking that she had probably just thought too much.

How could such a cute guy be her love rival?
No, to be honest, considering her relationship with Ying, there is no such thing as a love rival.

Once the queen appears, she will have no choice but to give up her position.

I'm so unwilling, but there's nothing I can do.

Cherish the present moment, finish the Sumiyoshi-kai matters as soon as possible, and then go cook for Hotaru.

Ten o'clock, is that breakfast or lunch?
Four and a half hours later, Yingsheng answered the question: "Of course it's breakfast. I will eat another meal around twelve o'clock, which is the proper lunch."

Hotaru borrowed Chiyoko's bathroom to wash up and changed into the full black suit he had prepared earlier.

Of course he had taken a shower when he came here in the early morning. He couldn't disturb the beauty with the smell of blood on his body.

Yingsheng sat down on the corridor beside the courtyard. The sunlight had not yet completely enveloped the place. The dividing line between light and darkness was two meters away, and it was quite cool under the eaves.

Chiyoko brought him tea, then took a large mahogany food box and began to serve the food.

"Did you lie next to me for a while just now?" Yingsheng asked.

Chiyoko paused for a moment, then returned to her normal state, smiling softly, "I just lay there for a while, I shouldn't have done anything, right?"

Yingsheng shook his head: "No, I was just subconsciously alert at the time, but then I felt there was no danger, so I ignored it."

"I see, didn't Hotaru have any other feelings at that time?"

"I'm a very deep sleeper. I won't wake up unless my subconscious senses danger. Otherwise, even if Mount Fuji erupts, I won't wake up." Yingsheng smiled, "After all, I don't sleep much. I pay much attention to efficiency. I don't even dream."

Chiyoko placed the dishes on the low table and sat on the other side. She looked at Hotaru with sympathy: "It must be very hard for Hotaru."

"Sleeping? How can sleeping be hard?"

Yingsheng turned around, picked up his chopsticks and started eating. "If it's normal, then it's not too bad. Life is pretty peaceful. Sometimes I even feel it's too leisurely."

"Wouldn't it be nice to live a more leisurely life?" Chiyo asked.

"I'm not saying it's bad, it's just... I always feel like something is missing. I've always been looking forward to some more vibrant colors." Yingsheng ate calmly, and suddenly thought of something and chuckled, "It doesn't seem right to say that, I'm still hiding so many things from Xiaolan."

He looked up at Chiyoko: "You should know who I'm talking about."

Chiyoko lowered her eyebrows and sighed: "I have investigated her. She is a very powerful and enviable girl."

"Sorry, for now, I think I like her, but if you ask me the specific reason, I can't really tell you."

Yingsheng thought for a moment and said, "To be honest, Xiaolan didn't make the deepest impression on me in all aspects. Maybe it's because of her comprehensive score. And I'm very happy with her growth speed. In short, it's just a coincidence that things turned out like this."

Chiyoko smiled: "This is what is called fate, how can I tell where it came from?"

"probably."

After saying this, Yingsheng ate quietly. At 10:30 in the morning, he said goodbye to Chiyoko, got on the black Bentley Yaris, and went to the Hime Law Firm.

"Has Xiwang been here this morning?" Yingsheng asked the driver.

The driver was silent for a few breaths: "Yes."

Speechless all the way.

At ten-thirty in the morning, Yingsheng arrived at the Fei Law Firm, took a look at the sign, and walked straight in.

The hall is decorated simply, with a few modern art works hanging on the light-colored walls, and there are not many people around.

As Yingsheng looked around, a pretty black-haired woman came towards him and asked what he wanted to consult. After learning that it was an important commission, she went into the back office to ask for instructions. Soon, Yingsheng was invited in.

Pushing open the heavy wooden door, Yingsheng walked into the office and saw Kisaragi standing by the desk waiting for him.

She was wearing a purple women's suit that was well-tailored, and her long brown hair was tied behind her head. Under the sunlight that came into the room through the gauze curtains, her hair emitted a soft luster. Her azure eyes were easily reminiscent of the calm sea, and her square-framed glasses added an intellectual charm to her.

"Mr. Shuiyue, welcome."

Kisaki Eri walked forward with a smile, her black high heels making crisp sounds on the wooden floor.

"Lawyer Fei, nice to meet you."

Yingsheng responded, extending his hand to her, and the two shook hands, breaking apart at the touch.

"Please take a seat."

Hibiki pointed to the chair in front of her desk, walked back to her desk, and sat down opposite Yingsheng: "I heard from Kuriyama that you want me to be in charge of a business negotiation with the Suzuki Group, is that right?"

Yingsheng said: "Probably more than one time, this involves great interests, if possible, I hope to entrust you with full authority."

"Excuse me, you look very young."

"I will pay a deposit in advance. Do you think one million is enough?"

"Can you tell me about the specific content of the business cooperation?"

"Of course, but nothing has been finalized yet. I can only give a rough idea."

Yingsheng briefly talked about the Alzheimer's disease treatment project and the market prospects estimated by Junerick, and finally added: "The Suzuki Group will definitely come up with a preliminary contract first. What you need to do is to review the contract and strive for our best interests."

Fei Yingli thought for a moment and said, "The prospect is very attractive. It seems that you are very confident in your medicine."

Yingsheng said calmly: "This is the fact, it is definitely not blind."

The conversation lasted only about ten minutes, and the cooperation between the two parties was finalized. Hotaru completed the payment efficiently, but after Kuriyama Midori handed over the draft contract, Hotaru told them that they needed to wait for a moment because the person who was going to sign had not arrived yet.

Fei Yingli was slightly stunned: "Are you really a minor?"

Yingsheng was carefully looking over the contract, analyzing the possible traps in it one by one: "I assure you that I was not wasting your time before. I was just waiting for a pen, not a guardian."

Fei Yingli said quickly: "Sorry, I'm just a little surprised."

Yingsheng nodded and asked if she needed to go out and wait. After receiving the answer that it was not necessary, she continued to look through the contract and asked some questions from time to time. No matter whether they were purely out of layman's knowledge or were really worth paying attention to, Kisaki Eri answered them very seriously.

After a while, Yingsheng finished reading the contract from beginning to end, put it on the desk, and said with a smile: "I think you should know which parts should be modified."

There was a hint of helplessness between Hibiki's brows: "You are such a demanding customer."
