She pointed at Yamazaki Fusa with her pipe.

"Even if you earn less money, you won't gain any favor from the other party. They might forget about you in a few days."

Hearing Himegami Sakura's words, Yamazaki Fune couldn't help but feel a little annoyed.

"If I had known, I should have lowered the price and held on tight, but in the end I was greedy and didn't stick to my bottom line."

"This situation is already quite good. I don't think that person's goodwill is so easy to earn. At least you haven't aroused his dislike. You don't need to worry about burning your hands with this money. Use this money to do other things. Don't worry about things in Yingdu anymore." Himegami Sakura looked into the distance, bidding farewell to this friend she had known for five or six years, while reminding him not to do anything he shouldn't.

Yamazaki nodded in deep agreement with Himegami Sakura's reminder. He didn't want to cause Jiang Hang to misunderstand, since Himegami Sakura had described Jiang Hang in such a frightening way.

Now that he has this money, he can just stay at home and enjoy his retirement.

......

Meanwhile, in Jianghang, he was still unaware of the misunderstanding that Himegami Sakura had about him. Even after signing the contract, he still couldn't understand what Yamazaki Zhou meant by lowering the price.

Could it be that Yingdu Photography Studio is currently facing various internal and external troubles, and even without the incident involving the General, it wouldn't last much longer? But shouldn't Yamazaki Zhou make a quick buck off him before leaving?

"Could it be that Mr. Yamazaki is also a very straightforward person, worried that I would suffer losses after acquiring Yingdu, so he advised me like this?" Jiang Hang stroked his chin. Because of the acquisition of Dabao Film and Television, he had indeed misunderstood those wealthy bosses before. It turns out that there are still good bosses like Yamazaki Zhou in this world.

Thinking about it this way, he really is a villain who thinks he can take advantage of the situation and wants to acquire Yingdu because of the incident involving the general.

Jiang Hang couldn't help but sigh with a touch of melancholy.

Sitting next to Jiang Hang, Cheng Butang Longyi also sighed along with Jiang Hang.

Today's negotiations ended almost without him doing anything.

Yamazaki, who lost money, felt relieved, while Jiang Hang, who saved money, was depressed. As a normal lawyer, Naruhodo Ryuichi suddenly felt that the world had become somewhat unfamiliar.

He even considered whether he should see a psychologist to ask if he had any psychological problems.

In short, on this seemingly ordinary day, Jiang Hang officially became the owner of Yingdu Photography Studio, and his brand holdings increased significantly. Perhaps the Great General crew will be able to collaborate with Gomera and Ultraman in the future.

If the Ultraman and Gomera tokusatsu series can become successful in the future, coupled with the already popular Great General IP, Jiang Hang might be able to become half of the tokusatsu industry.

"But you actually acquired that tokusatsu company. This must be the second time, right?"

That evening, when Jiang Hang went to Professor Agasa's house to help Shiho Miyano disguise herself, Conan, who was there to be inspected by Shiho Miyano, couldn't help but complain about Jiang Hang.

Jiang Hang seemed a little puzzled by Conan's mention of a second time, but Conan quickly provided an explanation.

"Last time you encountered a case at the art museum, and shortly after solving it, you acquired the Mika Art Museum. This time you encountered a case at the Eito Photography Studio, and after solving it, you acquired Eito as well. You don't happen to have a rather peculiar collecting fetish, do you?"

Jiang Hang's lips twitched.

"It's just a coincidence. Besides, out of all the cases I've handled, I've only acquired the art museum and the Yingdu Photography Studio. Don't talk nonsense. And I also have Da Bao Films. It was Professor Agasa who introduced me to Da Bao Films."

"It seems that Jiang Hang, you only got the idea to invest in a film company after you prevented a murder from happening on set at the Mikasa Shrine, right?" Conan said, resting his chin on his hand as he analyzed.

Seeing that Conan's imagination was about to reach the sky, Jiang Hang couldn't help but retort, "Your guess is no better than guessing that I actually orchestrated those murder cases to acquire these companies."

Jiang Hang just casually made a comment, unaware that quite a few people were already speculating about him in this way.

But what he didn't expect was that Conan actually nodded seriously after hearing his nonsense.

"It is indeed a possibility. With your disguise skills, Jiang Hang, you might actually be able to commit the perfect crime at the crime scene." Even though he knew that Jiang Hang wouldn't do such a thing, Conan still analyzed the situation rationally, while also thinking about how he could defeat Jiang Hang if he were the enemy.

However, before he could even mentally simulate his duel with Jiang Hang, he was promptly beaten up by Jiang Hang in reality.

After beating Conan, Jiang Hang, looking at the angry but speechless Conan, took out a few coupons from his pocket and handed them to Conan with a satisfied expression.

"Movie coupons?" Conan looked at Jiang Hang suspiciously.

"The new Gomera movie is going to be released in a couple of days, so I booked several small cinemas for half a month and had them play the past nine Gomera movies on a loop in one screening room. These coupons can let you go to those cinemas to watch Gomera movies for free."

“You can give it to your friends in the Detective Club,” Jiang Hang said, then looked at Conan, the Grim Reaper elementary school student, with a serious expression, as if he had thought of something.

"But you shouldn't go to the movie theater. I'm afraid you'll cause some kind of trouble for me there again."

Chapter 251: Chapter 249: You should ask your assistant to go to the movies with you.

Conan was "rationally analyzing" the possibility that Jiang Hang was the mastermind, and Jiang Hang naturally couldn't help but complain about Conan, this "death god elementary school student."

"To be honest, you've only been shrunk for less than three months, yet you've already encountered more than ten murder cases, five or six kidnapping cases, and several robberies, right?" Jiang Hang thought to himself. Although he had encountered many cases since becoming a detective, he had prevented most of them in advance. He hadn't actually encountered many real murder cases. In this respect, Conan was far ahead of him.

"Something that a normal person might only encounter a few times in their lifetime is as commonplace as eating and drinking soup for you. Compared to me, it's obviously more suspicious on your end."

Upon hearing Jiang Hang's words, Conan, beloved by the world, couldn't help but roll his eyes.

"It's not like I wanted to get involved in these cases; I myself want to keep a low profile."

"Besides, those cases happened right in front of me. If I don't try to solve them, what if the murderer gets away, or the police arrest the wrong person? I heard that in the case of the Great General, if it weren't for you, the prosecutor's office would have filed a lawsuit against the actor who played the Great General."

Knowing he couldn't win an argument with Jiang Hang, and even more aware that he would definitely get beaten up if he did, Conan wisely chose to avoid the topic.

He took the coupons from Jiang Hang's hand: "Anyway, I've already seen those Gomera movies when I was little, and I'm too lazy to go to the cinema to watch them again. I'll just give them the tickets... But aren't these a bit too many?"

Conan glanced at the coupons in his hand; it looked like he had more than ten or twenty of them.

"Just take them to your class and give them to the other students. I have plenty of these. If you need more, just ask me. I'd love for all the students in the school to go to the cinema and watch Gomera." Jiang Hang shrugged. Not only did he have a bunch of coupons, but the employees of DaBao Films also had dozens of them.

Perhaps because there are relatively few cinemas in Japan, the film release period in Japan is often extended to several months. Moreover, many films can still maintain a relatively considerable daily box office figure even after they are no longer in theaters. Therefore, it is entirely feasible to release Gomera's new film while simultaneously attracting new fans by re-releasing Gomera's previous films.

Those small cinemas don't have very good box office performance to begin with, so even if you rent one out for a month for advertising, it won't cost much.

The previous boss of Dabao Films hadn't made much money from Gomera, and had even almost gone bankrupt because of filming it. Naturally, he was even less willing to spend money on promotion, which is why Gomera has been in an awkward position for the past ten years. Now that Jiang Hang, who is not short of money, has arrived, he naturally wants to make Gomera as popular as Godzilla, the king of monsters before the time travel.

Conan knew that Jiang Hang wanted to use him to promote the event in class, so after putting away the coupons, he asked Jiang Hang a few questions about the Mud Ginseng Festival and then went back to the Mori family's house.

After Conan left, Jiang Hang, who had disguised Shiho Miyano, also planned to go home.

But Shiho Miyano, who had just heard something from Conan, suddenly brought up the matter of Shizuka Sakaki.

"Is your female assistant being targeted by the Mud Ginseng Association?"

Jiang Hang nodded and told Shiho Miyano about the previous case involving the Mihana Art Museum.

"The Mud Ginseng Association probably wants to retaliate against Sakaki. For her safety, I've asked her to stay at the agency for a while. But this isn't a big problem. I'm already investigating and have a direction. I expect we'll be able to resolve this soon."

Upon hearing that Shizuka Sakaki was now living with Jiang Hang at the agency, Shiho Miyano glanced at Jiang Hang briefly before giving him a warning.

"I don't know much about the Mud Ginseng Association. There are many people who want it to go wrong, both openly and secretly, but it still exists. So you'd better be careful."

Jiang Hang nodded to Shiho Miyano. A top yakuza gang with an annual income of hundreds of billions of dollars and decades of history in Japan is not something that can be dealt with easily. If they are really pushed to the limit, who knows what they might do.

He himself did not intend to deal with the entire Mud Ginseng Association as a whole, but only wanted to get rid of those who were detrimental to Sakaki Shizuka.

Thanks to the information provided by Takagi, Jiang Hang now knows that the department that arrested the Oda Group yesterday will likely have to release the detainees after 24 hours tonight due to insufficient evidence.

Takagi told him definitively that not only did the police have an undercover agent within the Oda Group, but the Oda Group also had an undercover agent within the Metropolitan Police Department, and that the undercover agent was even hidden among the police officers who participated in the arrest operation that night.

The Metropolitan Police Department is currently trying to find out the identity of that undercover agent, and one can imagine that the Oda-gumi leader is probably also eager to find out the undercover agent in the gang immediately.

In short, the Oda Group's undercover operations are becoming increasingly sophisticated. Originally, Jiang Hang only wanted to get rid of the Oda Group as soon as possible, but now he has suddenly become interested in these undercover agents.

Perhaps he could obtain a lot of information directly from that Oda Group spy.

Having already roughly figured out how to deal with the Oda Group, Jiang Hang took out two more movie discount coupons and handed them to Shiho Miyano.

Shiho Miyano looked at the two coupons in Jiang Hang's hand, and her expression changed slightly.

Seeing that Shiho Miyano didn't reach out, Jiang Hang explained, "You haven't left the house at all for the past month or so, right? It's okay to go out and see a movie to relax once in a while."

"This coupon is different from the one I gave to Conan. It allows you to watch any movie that's currently showing at that theater."

Shiho Miyano stared directly at Jiang Hang: "I'm not interested in watching movies. If you want someone to watch a movie with you, you should go find your assistant. She might be more suitable."

Jiang Hang blinked, paused for a moment before realizing that Shiho Amano seemed to have misunderstood him, and immediately explained to her.

"Shiho, you've got it wrong. I meant for you to go to the movies with your sister. I actually prefer to go to the movies alone." Jiang Hang looked at Miyano Shiho with a straightforward expression.

Chapter 252: Chapter 250: It's definitely better to go to the movies alone.

Seeing Jiang Hang's completely undisguised attitude, Shiho Miyano's expression seemed to freeze.

After a long while, she coldly took the two coupons from Jiang Hang and somewhat awkwardly thanked him.

Perhaps realizing that his words had made the atmosphere a little awkward, Jiang Hang couldn't help but add, "If you really don't want to go to the movies, you don't have to force yourself. Your sister certainly doesn't want you to force yourself to watch a movie you're not interested in with her."

However, after Jiang Hang said those words, Shiho Miyano's expression became even more gloomy.

"No need, I haven't gone to the movies with my sister in a long time either, I'll talk to her about it myself."

Shiho Miyano's tone didn't sound very friendly, so Jiang Hang took his leave before she kicked him out of the lab.

It seems that Shiho Miyano is still reluctant to leave the laboratory and interact with the outside world. The pressure from the brewery must be quite great.

She really needs to go out and see a movie to relax her mind.

Walking home, Jiang Hang couldn't help but have this thought.

At the same time, he also unusually thought about the scenario of going to the movies with Shiho Miyano.

Given Shiho Miyano's personality, she probably wouldn't go with him to see anime movies or tokusatsu films. She's more likely to go to the cinema to see documentaries or factual films.

I bet if he went to see a movie like that, he'd start getting sleepy right after the movie started.

If Jiang Hang were to go to the movies with Yoshino Kiharu, she wouldn't choose a documentary, but given her personality, she'd probably choose one of those melodramatic romance movies that Jiang Hang would consider incredibly cheesy. Jiang Hang felt that he'd rather watch a documentary and get a good night's sleep than watch those melodramatic movies.

If you go to see an animated movie with an anime enthusiast like Shizuka Sakaki, you won't fall asleep, but you'll probably watch the movie in completely opposite directions.

Jiang Hang just wanted to relax by watching a movie, while Shizuka Sakaki would probably focus all her attention on the characters' dialogue and voice acting. After watching the movie, she might even discuss the characteristics and performances of the voice actors.

Jiang Hang wasn't just making this up. He had watched anime with Shizuka Sakaki before, and after watching it, Shizuka Sakaki's longing and admiration for those voice actors kept echoing in his ears. As an ordinary anime viewer, he now gets a headache whenever he hears these professional analyses.

Jiang Hang thought about the other people again. It seemed that none of the people he knew were suitable to go to the cinema with. Either they didn't have any interest in animated films, or they were much more knowledgeable than him, a half-baked otaku, making his viewing experience completely unpleasant.

So in the end, he still came to the same conclusion—it's definitely more convenient to go to the movies alone.

The very next day, Jiang Hang actually went to the movie theater alone.

Of course, he didn't come to watch the movie; he came to see how many people had used coupons to see the re-release of Gomera.

There are only about a dozen or twenty large cinemas in the entire city of Tokyo. The remaining fifty or sixty are small and medium-sized cinemas. However, since it was the weekend, Jiang Hang went to visit the small cinemas that had been contracted with him. Most of the cinemas were quite lively.

Thanks to the coupons, Gomera's screening room was quite full today. However, the effectiveness of this promotion will depend on how many viewers will be willing to pay to see Gomera's latest film after these coupons are used up.

However, when Jiang Hang walked to another movie theater, he couldn't help but frown slightly.

This cinema looks like it's been around for a while, and its location isn't exactly remote. Logically, since it's the weekend, the cinema should be doing pretty well.

But something seemed off about the cinema. Before Jiang Hang even reached the theater, he saw many viewers walking out looking unhappy, as if they had just encountered something unpleasant in the cinema.
