My life in the underworld begins at the Takayanagi family!

A man like Takayanagi Ichiro definitely can't stand being at the office every day. If she keeps running the shop without any results, wouldn't that just prove her unlucky nature?

After hearing what Takayanagi Mitsuka said, Takayanagi Ichiro laughed.

“You’re not that unlucky guy next door, there’s no need for you to take this kind of thing to heart.” After saying this, Takayanagi Ichiro hugged Takayanagi Mitsuka, just to make his stance clear.

"The unlucky guy next door?"

Takayanagi Mitsuka found it a bit strange. The Mori Detective Agency should be right next to the loan agency, so how could there be such an unlucky person there?

After a young high school detective moved into Kogoro Mouri's detective agency, his career progressed significantly, and paying off his loans there wouldn't be a problem in the future.

Unfortunately, the loan has changed its nature, and Ran Mouri is now required to stay here for three years to repay the debt.

Of course, even if you offered Ran Mouri money to go back to the detective agency next door, she would absolutely not agree.

Because Ran Mouri has now taken on the form of Ichiro Takayanagi, she won't go back to the detective agency to live with Kogoro Mouri.

Not to mention, there's also Conan, that little rascal, at the detective agency, who has the genuine mindset of a high school student.

"I also have some contact with the police, who say that there have been frequent murders around Detective Mori these days."

In the past, Detective Mouri only handled cases involving catching cats and dogs, and occasionally, he would take photos of mistresses.

Now a jinx has moved in. Although he hasn't brought any major changes to the Mouri Detective Agency, people die wherever he goes outside.

Although Detective Mouri eventually helped solve the problem, some police officers referred to him as the Grim Reaper.

Actually, it has nothing to do with Detective Mouri; it's just that the little guy is a jinx.

After hearing Takayanagi Ichiro's story, Takayanagi Mitsuka's body trembled in his arms.

If all of this is true, then Shinichi Kudo is just too outrageous.

He deliberately waited for people to die before appearing as a detective. That kind of person is terrifying.

In comparison, I only didn't receive any loan applications while I was minding the store, so I'm not exactly a jinx.

"Ichiro, in that case, we can't let that Grim Reaper come to our house, or something bad will happen."

Takayanagi Mitsuka values ​​this home very much. Although it's just a company, wherever Takayanagi Ichiro is, that's home to her.

Takayanagi Mitsuka's attitude made Takayanagi Ichiro smile, and he immediately comforted her.

"Don't worry, I don't take that little Grim Reaper seriously. Even if he comes to my house and causes trouble, it won't have any effect."

Ichiro Takayanagi was quite confident about this; he was definitely the natural counter to Kogoro Mouri and that brat Conan.

"Sigh, someone went to the Mori Detective Agency again. No one came to do loan business while I was minding the shop. I'm really a failure."

Takayanagi Mitsuka brought up the matter again. Since Takayanagi Ichiro was able to perfectly control Kogoro Mouri and Conan, she definitely needed to continue to reflect on herself.

"Isn't this coming?"

Chapter 280 The Bad Woman, Yuko Ikezawa

After hearing what Ichiro Takayanagi said, Mitsuka Takayanagi was a little surprised, but she immediately noticed the entrance to the agency.

They actually discovered a woman who was completely covered up, using the agency as cover, as if she were monitoring something.

The reason I knew it was a woman was because Takayanagi Mika was also a woman, and my intuition in this regard had never been wrong.

However, this woman had covered herself up completely, clearly not wanting to reveal her identity, and the location she was looking from seemed to be the detective agency next door.

In that case, it's impossible for them to offer their services to you for free, as Takayanagi Ichiro claimed. You should know that she worked at this agency for two days and no one came to her door to consult her.

Ichiro Takayanagi said that Shinichi Kudo next door was an incarnation of the Grim Reaper, so Mitsuka Takayanagi believed that she herself was an incarnation of the Night Reaper.

Although Takayanagi Ichiro's persuasion had comforted Takayanagi Mitsuka considerably, she still felt much better.

However, the thought of sitting in the shop and not having any business dealings was a slight blow to her.

So he wanted to find out what this woman who was using their office was up to. If she was doing something illegal or criminal, he would definitely take her to the police station.

"Miss, this is a loan agency. If you need a loan, we can discuss it."

If you're planning to use our firm for nefarious purposes, I advise you to stop now, because we have a good relationship with the police.

A simple phone call will bring the police to handle the situation immediately.

The sudden approach of Gao Liu Mihua startled the woman, who was completely disguised, and also revealed that her identity had been exposed.

Could this woman also be his fan? Otherwise, how could she have seen through his disguise and even advised him not to do anything rash?

"Sorry, I didn't see it clearly before..."

The woman in disguise apologized first, but then seemed to recall something and looked directly at Takayanagi Mitsuka.

"By the way, what kind of agency did you say this was?"

Upon hearing this question, Gao Liu Mihua knew that this woman in disguise was definitely doing something bad.

However, she still offered an explanation, even though it didn't have much to do with the agency.

“We are a loan agency. If you have a loan need, we can discuss it slowly.”

After receiving this answer, the woman, who had completely disguised herself, left the agency.

Then I looked up at the sign and sure enough, I saw the name of Modern Office.

"Very well, since you are the firm, then I would like to discuss the loan with you. Can you make the decision?"

The woman suddenly stopped talking about the investigation and started talking about the loan, which surprised Gao Liu Mihua a little. She had originally wanted to get rid of the woman.

But now that the other party has brought up the idea of ​​taking out a loan, we should definitely invite them in.

"I am Gao Liu Mihua, the secretary of this firm. Miss, if you want to take out a loan, you should talk to the owner of our firm."

Takayanagi Mitsuka was merely responsible for running the shop when Takayanagi Ichiro wasn't home; she had no ability to actually take out a loan.

So if this woman really needs a loan, then he and Takayanagi Ichiro should negotiate slowly.

Takayanagi Mitsuka brought the woman into the office without arousing Takayanagi Ichiro's suspicion.

"Ichiro, this young lady says she wants to take out a loan."

After Takayanagi Mitsuka finished speaking, she took the initiative to serve tea to the woman. Takayanagi Ichiro, however, did not immediately discuss the loan; instead, he addressed the woman, saying:

"It's no problem to get a loan from me, but I won't lend to people who are hiding."

If there's absolutely no trust, then there's no point in continuing the conversation.

The woman knew that Ichiro Takayanagi was referring to her current attire, so she immediately removed all her disguises.

She revealed a rather delicate face, and also had soft, golden curly hair.

This woman doesn't have a particularly noble air about her, but she possesses a wild beauty that seems to be heavily influenced by foreign cultures.

"Hello sir, my name is Yuko Ikezawa."

I've encountered some difficulties in my career, so I need financial assistance.

After Takayanagi Mitsuka poured the tea, she was surprised to find that Ikezawa Yuko had already removed her disguise.

I never expected her to be such a beauty. Why was she doing those things in secret before?

"I am Takayanagi Ichiro from the credit agency, but I also have a pretty good relationship with the agency next door."

You clearly didn't realize this was a loan agency, and were actually following that guy who went to the Mori Detective Agency.

Instead of discussing the loan, Takayanagi Ichiro talked about his own actions at this moment, which made Ikezawa Yuko frown slightly.

“Mihua wasn’t wrong just now. I have a very good relationship with the police. All I need to do is make this call and the Metropolitan Police Department headquarters will send someone to assist me.”

Furthermore, we have a rule here that borrowers must clearly disclose their circumstances; otherwise, we have no way of knowing if they have the ability to repay.

When Takayanagi Mitsuka said that before, Ikezawa Yuko would have thought that the other person was bragging.

However, now that she is facing Ichiro Takayanagi, the owner of the credit agency, Yuko Ikezawa believes that what Ichiro Takayanagi said must be true.

Considering her current financial predicament, Yuko Ikezawa made no attempt to hide her identity and laid it all out in the open.

"Actually, I am an actor in an agency, but I haven't been able to get enough roles lately, so I'm having some trouble paying my rent and making ends meet."

"That's why you're working at the credit bureau, isn't it?"

Takayanagi Mitsuka had already handed the tea to Ikezawa Yuko, and then she sat down next to Takayanagi Ichiro.

After listening to Yuko Ikezawa's story, I thought I understood why she was there.

"Don't be fooled by her. Her presence here is just a coincidence."

Her purpose wasn't to borrow money at all, but to go to the woman at the Mouri Detective Agency.

If her real intention was to borrow money, she wouldn't have asked you to confirm whether we were a loan agency.

Although Takayanagi Ichiro's credit office had just opened, there was no clear plan yet.

But the signboard is already up, so why would anyone come here and have doubts again?

This proves that her initial purpose was not to apply for a loan, but to keep an eye on the people at the detective agency next door.

Takayanagi Ichiro's explanation immediately made Takayanagi Mitsuka serious, and her gaze fell directly on Ikezawa Yuko, wanting to hear how Ikezawa Yuko would defend herself.

If this woman is truly a bad woman, then Takayanagi Mitsuka will definitely have Takayanagi Ichiro personally take her to the police station.

Chapter 281 Yuko Ikezawa: I'll make you satisfied.

“Mr. Takayanagi, I don’t think you’re more like the president of a modern agency than a detective.”

After hearing Takayanagi Ichiro's words, Ikezawa Yuko's expression changed several times before she finally praised him.

She really hadn't expected to be discovered at this loan agency. The main reason was that all her attention was focused on the detective agency next door. Now that Takayanagi Ichiro had exposed her, it was quite embarrassing.

"The woman who went to the Mouri Detective Agency was my rival. Because of her sudden rise to prominence, she completely replaced me in all my work."

I think my abilities are basically the same as hers, and she must have used some other methods to steal all my jobs, so I want to secretly follow her and see what she's up to.

Neither Ichiro Takayanagi nor Mitsuka Takayanagi agreed with Yuko Ikezawa's explanation, but Mitsuka Takayanagi did not reprimand her.

After all, she's not in the entertainment industry and doesn't know some of the inside stories.
