"At the time, I thought it was some other problem. It wasn't until the next day when I went up to the roof to check that I found the antenna was broken."

"Logically speaking, there shouldn't be any falling objects from a height at that location, there wasn't a strong wind that day, and the antenna break doesn't look very normal either."

He took another sip of his drink, glanced at the bullet casing in Yusuke Suzuki's hand, and said, "Then I found this on the rooftop. It's very new."

Yusuke Suzuki was silent for a moment. "Did you ask Inspector Megure to do a bullet hole test?"

"No."

Kogoro Mouri shook his head. "It's too time-consuming, and there's a high probability we won't find it. Black guns have a hard time locating users."

At this moment, his expression darkened further, and he said solemnly, "Yusuke, to be honest, whether it was when I was a policeman or now during my time as a detective, I have made quite a few enemies."

"I found an excuse to get rid of your annoying teacher's wife back then, but Xiaolan is someone I can't get rid of no matter what."

“Even if I die, Xiaolan may continue to be threatened, so I have kept her by my side to protect her all these years.”

"But now... to be honest, I'm a little unsure."

Kogoro Mouri paused, his eyes gleaming, "So... I hope you can help me protect Ran to the best of your ability."

After saying that, he banged his head on the table and solemnly said, "Please!"

Seeing this, Suzuki Yusuke quickly helped his teacher up. "Teacher, I will do my best even without you saying so, don't worry."

He was deeply moved.

There is no doubt that Kogoro Mouri is very concerned about his image.

But when it comes to his family, he can swallow any pride.

Since the proper posture in an izakaya is kneeling, what the other person just did was equivalent to giving him a deep bow.

The meaning behind a teacher bowing deeply to his disciple is self-evident.

After receiving the promise he hoped for, Kogoro Mouri breathed a sigh of relief.

Although it was only verbal, he believed that Yusuke Suzuki would take it seriously.

Wasn't their master-disciple relationship just a joke they made back then?

After calming down, the bumbling detective continued his analysis, "Ran and Conan weren't home the day before yesterday, so the other party must have come for me."

"I actually have no clue who my enemies are who can use sniper rifles."

"But at least for now, they only want to warn me. They may take new actions later, so I have to be on guard."

"I don't want to tell Xiaolan about this, so..."

Kogoro Mouri touched his head sheepishly.

Just as he was about to speak, Suzuki Yusuke interrupted him, "So I'd like to help you replace all the glass in your office with bulletproof glass, it'll be safer that way, I hope you don't mind."

In addition, surveillance cameras need to be installed.

He spoke up quickly because he didn't want Kogoro Mouri to say something like "borrow money".

This amount of money is nothing to him; it's unnecessary.

Having experienced the ups and downs of life, Kogoro Mouri naturally understood what Yusuke Suzuki meant, so he stopped being coy and said, "Okay, thank you."

"You are my teacher, it would be too formal to say thank you."

After the important matters were discussed, the atmosphere eased somewhat.

Whether he was prepared for trouble or simply wasn't in a good mood, Kogoro Mouri didn't get drunk this time.

But Yusuke Suzuki ate a lot, taking sips of wine and bites of food, so the meal still took almost two hours to finish.

Big customers are usually treated well by the boss.

The still-charming and beautiful proprietress, arm in arm with the bumbling detective, smiled broadly and saw him off at the shop door, lingering reluctantly as she gently invited him to come again.

how to say.

In the world of Detective Conan, everyone is a master of face-changing.

The bumbling detective instantly revealed his true colors, his tongue nearly flying off his tongue.

I'm more familiar with teachers like this...

Yusuke Suzuki took out his phone and called Masato Nishino directly, asking him to take care of the surveillance and bulletproof glass issues.

Incidentally, he also asked if there were any highly capable girls among the recent new interviewees at the company.

On the one hand, showing some concern for the company can motivate Nishino Masato to do things more effectively.

On the one hand, it was laying the groundwork for Han Chuanqing's subsequent joining the company.

After finishing the phone call, Kogoro Mouri parted ways with the landlady.

Then let's go back.

Back at the detective agency, it was still early, before school was over.

Yusuke Suzuki stayed behind to finalize the renovation progress and also to freeload another dinner.

If you have even the slightest doubt about the efficiency of the "King of Executions," it is a sign of disrespect.

Less than half an hour later, Masato Nishino arrived with his renovation team.

It's just replacing the glass, a small job, we can definitely finish it today.

The bumbling detective was still marveling at how the renovations had already begun.

Yusuke Suzuki was asked to step aside by Masato Nishino to talk.

We're all old buddies, so we can be more direct with each other.

"Boss, are you planning to find a pretty female assistant? The company does have a very suitable candidate recently. During the interview, her business skills were very good, but she is a bit dull."

Upon hearing this, Yusuke Suzuki's expression turned strange. "A quiet and reserved personality, would be suitable as an assistant?"

“She’s beautiful!” Masato Nishino replied matter-of-factly.

Yusuke Suzuki: "..."

Yes.

A beautiful female assistant.

There are three requirements in total.

If Han Chuanqing is interviewing for an assistant position, then she is a perfect fit.

Quite reasonable.

That's right, Suzuki Yusuke immediately thought of Haru Ayakawa upon hearing the description; it was most likely her.

If not, then find a reason to refuse and offer the other person a different position.

"I'll go to the company in a few days."

Yusuke Suzuki lit a cigarette and took a puff. "Prepare the resumes of suitable candidates."

"There's no time like the present," Nishino Masato said urgently. "Shall we leave now?"

"not now."

"What about tomorrow?"

"Tomorrow won't work either."

"Boss, just tell me straight, how many days is 'a few days'?"

"I do not know either."

Masato Nishino: "......"

Damn it! He knew it!

Forget it.

I expected it, and I'm used to it.

Today's plan to lure the boss back to the company failed again.

What exactly is it or what kind of person that can bring the boss back to the company?

Beautiful women are definitely out of the question; there are too many of them in the company, so it's completely useless.

What could it be...?

Chapter 743 The old bastard has a lot of trouble.

Now that he has become a de facto bigwig, Masato Nishino naturally doesn't show his emotions.

He couldn't let the boss see through his intentions.

Once they become wary, the boss might never go to the company again.

After chatting for a few more minutes, Masato Nishino 'voluntarily' took his leave, his face beaming with a 'happy' expression.

Seeing that the conversation had ended, Kogoro Mouri walked over and glanced at the departing car, asking curiously, "Is it really necessary for the president to come all the way here for such a small matter?"

Yusuke Suzuki offered a cigarette to his teacher, saying, "There's nothing I can do; he's the only person I know in the company."

Kogoro Mouri, who had instinctively accepted the cigarette, froze, his eyes wide with disbelief: "??????"

God the hell only knows him!

Didn't you own this company?!

Have modern company management systems become this efficient?

The bumbling detective had a lot to complain about, but he dared not say it or ask.

I felt that my understanding of the world had been greatly impacted.

This is truly eye-opening...

The master and apprentice chatted and discussed the next steps.

The threat of the unknown 'culprit' remains, and the bumbling detective can't relax at all.

Yusuke Suzuki couldn't very well say, "I won't come after you again," so he could only try to come up with a solution together.
