Conan: The man who rejects the Criminal Department

Chapter 23 22. Suzuki Ayako’s sincere request

After getting the answers they wanted, Sotakuya and Reiko Akiba left Kudo's house in silence.

After returning to the apartment, Reiko Akiba did not drink for the first time, and instead chose to drink with Sotakuya. However, Reiko Akiba, who did not drink often, only drank one can of beer.

"If there wasn't so much evidence in front of me, I really wouldn't believe that such a thing would happen. What are you going to do next, go find that high school student to show off?"

Qiuting Lianzi seemed a little excited. I am afraid that no one can face the matter of rejuvenation calmly, except of course the person who was forced to rejuvenate himself.

Qiuting Reiko's question made Sotakuya look at him strangely: "Why should I have a showdown with him?"

"Of course, yes," Qiuting Reiko blurted out the answer but didn't say it out loud. Sotakuya was right.

In the final analysis, this is just personal curiosity. So what if there is a showdown? It seems that whether there is a showdown or not does not mean much to So Takuya.

and.

"The dog-riding boy would rather stay anonymous and be a gangster than live in his own home. Obviously, this rejuvenation was not his initiative."

Ayako even described it as a way to train Sotakuya's investigative abilities in advance.

Very moist.

If Sotakuya hadn't fallen in love with a lady like Reiko Akiba, a girl like Suzuki Ayako and Nadeshiko would really be the perfect candidate to marry and live a happy life.

very useful.

Not only is the tuition for daily life and schooling, the scholarship level Sou Takuya received can even allow him to attend a good cram school. Otherwise, Toto University, the top school in Japan, would not be so easy to get into.

So being busy or not being busy is just a relative concept. After all, Sotakuya can go home from get off work every day. Colleagues like those from the Investigation Section 1 may still be working overtime in the office right now.

"It's not bad Takuya, have you been very busy recently? Your parents have been talking about you at home since you went to work at the Metropolitan Police Department, and you rarely come to the house~"

After a few simple greetings, Suzuki Ayako went straight to the topic: "That's what happened. Just now I accidentally heard Sonoko talking on the phone at home."

At this time, Ayako's apologetic voice sounded on the other side of the phone: "Actually, I didn't want to trouble you, but I had to attend a banquet for my mother that day, so I couldn't get away."

"Yuanzi is going on a date with a college student she met on the TV station this weekend, but Yuanzi has known how to choose a boyfriend or a boy she likes since she was a child."

"Sorry, sorry. When I have some free time in a few days, I will go visit my husband and my wife to apologize. I didn't expect that I would be so busy after joining the company."

At least that's what happened after the unexpected death of her fiancé.

As mentioned earlier, Sotakuya's life improved after he received a scholarship in high school, and the sponsor of the scholarship was the Suzuki Group of Suzuki Sonoko's family.

"Then it's the same this time?" What it means is that Sotakuya and Suzuki Ayako went out together and took care of Suzuki Sonoko.

If a detective is as high-profile as Kudo Shinichi, disaster may not be far away. The decline of prosperity is never an empty talk, but an objective law.

Speaking of why So Takuya had Suzuki Ayako’s phone number, this is actually a very normal situation.

There are actually quite a few outstanding young men around her, but this girl is able to pick out those scumbags from the vast crowd every time.

Suzuki Ayako sighed. As an old sister, she was really worried about her younger sister, and she was still worried about her since she was a child.

After learning that Sotakuya was an orphan without parents, Tomoko Suzuki's unexpected motherly overflow took care of Sotakuya. It was at that time that Sotakuya met the peer who named his scholarship at Suzuki's house.

"Tsk tsk, what a pity." Qiuting Lianzi suddenly sighed and shook his head: "I also wanted to ask you to help me ask if this rejuvenation method can do without such a radical effect."

After drinking a can of beer, Qiuting Reiko didn't stay much longer, and she didn't even think about the late night snack she was talking about because she was in such an excited mood just now.

Five years have passed since the accident, and people should not always live in the past.

Sotakuya didn't know the complicated thoughts of Reiko Akiba outside the door. After Reiko Akiba left, he unexpectedly received a call from Ayako Suzuki.

It would definitely be unjust to interrupt them all in a row, but hitting one every other one would definitely miss the mark.

The next second after the security door of the apartment was closed, Akiba Reiko stood still and turned around to take a complicated look at Sotakuya's door. She had not experienced such a comfortable and cozy feeling for a long time.

"It would be nice if my face could stop changing and stay now."

Therefore, Sotakuya has a natural affinity and affection for the Suzuki family who have helped him and even continue to help him.

As the most consistent recipient of the Suzuki Group's highest-level scholarship, Sotakuya has also been received by Suzuki Tomoko and Suzuki Shiro.

As soon as he mentioned this, So Takuya's mouth twitched. He was a bitch. Anyway, he didn't believe that Suzuki Ayako accidentally heard Sonoko's call.

According to his understanding of Suzuki Ayako, Ayako would not contact him rashly unless it was urgent.

Ever since Suzuki Ayako learned that Sotakuya was going to work in the Metropolitan Police Department, Sotakuya was involved in the task of investigating the character of her sister's prospective boyfriend.

That means being fooled every time, but nothing is the same.

In other words, in a sense, the Suzuki family paid for Sotakuya to go from high school to college and then pass the civil service examination to enter the Metropolitan Police Department.

Until now, Sotakuya feels that Suzuki Ayako doesn't seem to understand the difference between police and detectives. This kind of work, which is very similar to investigating a cheating partner, is really not the responsibility of the police.

When Suzuki Ayako said this, Sotakuya also sighed in her heart.

Akita Reiko inevitably wanted to use APTX-4869 in some strange places, but neither she nor Sotakuya knew that this experience of eternal youth had been verified by a woman who was like a witch.

All of this is a free donation without any need for return.

However, Sotakuya felt that such a proven law did not require the investigation of so many actions, so he directly broke the legs of the man who fell in love with Sonoko.

"I guess it's very likely that I accidentally got involved in some biological research, just like in a Hollywood movie." So Takuya briefly analyzed Conan's current situation and quickly got the answer.

The highest scholarship is named after Ayako.

As a woman, especially a royal sister.

If it weren't for Ayako's sister, I would have been defrauded of money and sex so many times since childhood.

This second young lady of the Suzuki family really had something special about her. Ever since he met Suzuki Sonoko, he found that this girl had a strange vision.

"Ayako? Long time no see. Why did you call me so late today?" So Takuya asked Suzuki Ayako curiously.

So Takuya sighed. He originally chose to join the Organized Crime Countermeasures Department because it was not as busy as the Criminal Department, but he still underestimated the workload of the Metropolitan Police Department.

"Takuya, I can only ask you to investigate on your own. Wait until my banquet is over and see if you can rush over~"

Maybe, it's time to say goodbye to the past properly.

This time, the late-night snack was postponed, and Reiko Akiba left Sotakuya's apartment feeling slightly tipsy.

"Well, you can just leave the work of beating the odds to me. It just so happens that I don't have much work on the weekend."

"Well, let's do a little research. What if the boy Sonoko falls in love with this time is reliable?" Suzuki Ayako's unconfident voice sounded on the other side of the phone.

"Do you believe this?"

"Forget it, let's just beat the mandarin ducks!"
