Detective Conan: Becoming a Zaibatsu - Starting with Joining the Winery

Is this Yuanzi's alumni reunion?

For an instant.

He immediately thought of the most classic case from the early part of the original work.

Hiding a head in someone's arms—that's a childhood trauma!

However, a problem arises.

It's understandable that Sonoko invited Ran, since the two are good friends. Even though it's Ayako Suzuki's alumni reunion, Ran is welcome to come and join in the fun.

But what's with inviting yourself?

Not to mention Ayako Suzuki, even Sonoko isn't familiar with me!

We've only met once, why would you invite me to do this?

Thinking of this, he immediately spoke up: "If it were a gathering hosted by Sonoko, it wouldn't matter, but this gathering was organized by Sonoko-neechan, and I don't even know her. Would it be inappropriate for me to attend?"

"Don't worry, it's fine." Xiaolan smiled and shook her head upon hearing this, "Sister Yuanzi agreed."

"Ayako-nee is very gentle, and she welcomes you to come over tomorrow."

"Yuanzi already mentioned this on the phone, so Brother Linmo doesn't need to worry."

Lin Mo narrowed his eyes slightly upon hearing this.

That's interesting!

He had no connection with Sonoko, and even less with the Suzuki family's eldest daughter. Why would she invite him to participate if she had nothing better to do?

Unsolicited kindness is either a sign of ulterior motives or theft!

Lin Mo is a very realistic person and would never believe in free lunches.

The Suzuki family...

Among all the zaibatsu in the entire island nation, they belong to the top second-tier zaibatsu!

If the Suzuki family were truly as docile as depicted in the original story, they would have been swallowed up by other conglomerates long ago.

Sonoko is no simple person, and Ayako is the eldest daughter of the Suzuki family. Are they really just simple characters?

Ran and Sonoko are so close because they grew up together, and Ran's personality is so endearing and innocent that the Suzuki family can see that Ran has no ambition.

otherwise……

Ordinary people aren't qualified to be Yuanzi's best friend!

So, what about yourself?

Chen only met Sonoko once,

but.

Although his mind raced with a lot of thoughts in an instant, it all happened in the blink of an eye. After only a few seconds of contemplation, Lin Mo immediately agreed.

"No problem, I'll participate!"

Lin Mo was now very curious about what the Suzuki sisters wanted to do.

Meanwhile, on the other side...

Ran didn't think too much about it. After seeing Lin Mo agree, she took Conan and left.

Conan hesitated, as if he wanted to say something but then stopped!

He clearly wanted to chat with Lin Mo a little longer and learn more about Miyano Akemi.

Unfortunately, it's a pity.

He's dealing with the child's physical body now, and he simply can't go against Xiaolan's determination.

Lin Mo stood at the door, smiling as he watched the two leave.

……

Meanwhile, on the other side...

Akemi Miyano sat in the passenger seat, her heart pounding with anxiety.

Vodka, who was driving, did not notice Conan following behind, and was giving Miyano Akemi pre-job training.

"From now on, we will carry out missions during the day on our days off."

"On normal working days, the hours are from 7 pm to 10 pm."

"It's only because of Amaretto that I've made time to personally guide you. After I finish these small tasks with you, I'll have to go back and do higher-level tasks with Gin."

"I have to say, you're really lucky!"

Vodka kept rambling on, his face clearly showing his displeasure.

He doesn't actually need to do these small tasks; usually, these are the jobs of cannon fodder on the periphery. But now, in order to help Amaretto with this, he has no choice but to come and take care of Miyano Akemi.

The key point is that after taking care of Akemi Miyano, he still has other work to do when he gets back!

Yes.

During the time he spent with Akemi Miyano, it took up his rest time. He had to cooperate with Gin's work during the day, and he still had to finish his work after he finished here.

Akemi Miyano: "..."

She was now extremely embarrassed by Vodka's request.

After hearing what the other party said, he felt like a rich kid.

Of course.

Vodka didn't expect a reply from Miyano Akemi. He took out the first file from a stack of documents in the armrest box and handed it to her: "This is our first target for today, a district councilor who embezzled road maintenance funds."

"The file contains photocopies of his incriminating materials. You will give these to the other party later and ask him if he is willing to work for the organization in the future."

"If he refuses, kill him!"

Akemi Miyano was somewhat dumbfounded.

She never expected that her first mission would involve such a high-ranking figure as a member of parliament.

She instinctively opened the file folder, and after seeing its contents, she almost vomited.

Embezzlement is the least of it; there are also murder and kidnapping involved!

Seeing all this incriminating material made Akemi Miyano want to kill someone.

"What? Can't accept it?" Vodka asked.

Akemi Miyano pondered for a moment, then nodded slightly: "I saw in this document that the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications investigated the other party, but in the end, nothing came of it."

"Tch, it's perfectly normal." Vodka scoffed. "Does that even need asking?"

"Turn to page 27 of that file; it contains some specific information."

Akemi Miyano subconsciously flipped to page 27, and after reading it, she couldn't help but sigh, her lips curving into a bitter smile.

It turns out this congressman is from the Ito Foundation!

The heirs of the Fukuyama Group and the Ito Group are both vying for the same female celebrity.

The heir to the Fukuyama Group, while having someone investigate the Ito Group, discovered that this member of parliament had shady dealings. Coincidentally, the Fukuyama Group had someone within the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications whom they had promoted.

Head of the Financial Investigation Section, under the Autonomous Finance Bureau!

then.

The section chief began to investigate the congressman and personally delivered the evidence to his door. Naturally, the congressman chose to turn against him and provided some damaging information about the Ito Group involving a core company.

finally……

It was this scandal that ultimately forced the heir of the Fukuyama Group to back down.

"Heh, all for a woman?"

"What are these people doing with their time? Making such a huge commotion just to snatch a female celebrity?"

"Are you crazy?"

Akemi Miyano, I can't understand it.

She knew that the chaebol circle and its upper echelons were definitely not clean, and she could understand that there were some unsavory aspects to it. But after truly understanding it at this moment, she realized that she had been thinking too simply before.

And, in response to this.

Upon hearing this, Vodka, who was driving, became even more disdainful: "The disgusting nature of this world is a hundred times worse than you can imagine. The little bit of dirt you have now is nothing in the real elite circles."

"Don't be fooled by their glamorous appearances every day; they're essentially no different from our organization."

"If you'd even like, the organization can arrange a parliamentary seat for you to play around with!"

A few words.

Vodka spoke very casually, clearly having seen a lot over the years.

For a mere member of parliament or other public officials, organizing and operating such an organization is indeed quite simple.

But on the other side...

Upon hearing these words, Akemi Miyano was completely dumbfounded.

I can't understand it!

In fact, it's unacceptable!
