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

Ryoichi Takahashi has chosen to give up!

Ayako breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this, as she was very happy to be able to avenge Atsuko herself.

Not to mention...

With the evidence in Takahashi Ryoichi's hands, she can save a lot of time and take action herself after this gathering ends!

Next.

The gathering continued, but unlike in the original story, no murder occurred; the entire event remained peaceful.

the next day.

When everyone was parting, Ayako found Lin Mo and said, "You were right, thank you very much."

"You've already arranged a contact person; your people can come to your office to sign the contract at any time."

Looking at the man in front of her, Ayako's eyes were full of curiosity.

Obviously.

According to the Suzuki family's initial investigation, Lin Mo was just an ordinary engineer. Among recent college graduates, he was actually doing quite well.

But in reality, it's just average.

To put it bluntly...

He's just an ordinary person!

So she wanted to see what Lin Mo was hiding behind his back.

Lin Mo simply nodded and didn't say anything more. After descending the mountain, he drove his S600 and took Ran and Conan away.

……

The Suzuki family.

Ayako immediately summoned her father, Suzuki Shiro's secretary—Nishino Masato.

This is a tall, slender man who wears glasses but always wears gloves, and always has a smile on his lips.

"Miss Ayako!"

Nishino Masato bowed deeply, his tone extremely respectful.

Ayako handed over the original manuscript of "Sky-Colored Kingdom" and the evidence collected by Ryoichi Takahashi to the other party, and then recounted the whole incident from beginning to end: "My request is very simple, I want Chikako Ikeda to suffer a fate worse than death."

"Therefore, I must remind you, Dunzi is my best friend!"

Masato Nishino pushed up his glasses, his expression turning serious.

He didn't speak directly, but instead took the evidence and glanced at it briefly before giving his assurance: "Okay, Miss Ayako."

"I'll have it sorted out within a week. Is there anything else you need?"

Followed by.

Ayako hesitated for a moment before slowly speaking: "The second matter is Watanabe Foods Co., Ltd."

"Let's acquire this small company. There's a guy named Ryoichi Takahashi working there. Let's promote him to a middle management position."

"There is no need to give them preferential treatment or target them. Promotions should be carried out according to the normal procedures."

"third……"

"I've already transferred ownership of my small private company, Future Entertainment Co., Ltd."

"Go there tomorrow morning to oversee the process, see who's coming to sign the agreement, and investigate their basic information."

"Investigate only the surface information; there's no need for in-depth investigation."

Report back to me once you have the results!

At this moment, Nishino Masato was genuinely surprised.

Acquire a small business to support an ordinary person?

What's even more outrageous is Ayako's small private company. Although it's nothing special within the Suzuki Group, it's a very large business for ordinary people.

Is it really that easy to transfer it to someone else?

but.

Since Ayako didn't explain, he naturally wouldn't ask her.

After agreeing to everything, he left the villa immediately.

Meanwhile, on the other side...

After Nishino Masato left, Sonoko, who had changed into her pajamas, came over and asked, "Sis, did you give your company to Lin Mo?"

"Yes, that's right!" Ayako nodded.

She gracefully picked up a cup of coffee, leaned back on the soft sofa, and after a moment of contemplation, said softly, "That Lin Mo is not simple. Remember to be careful when you're with him in the future."

Lin Mo?

Hearing her older sister Ayako's reminder, Sonoko also fell into thought.

She picked up a cup of coffee, stirred it gently for a while, and then said softly, "Lin Mo and I aren't really friends. He's just a neighbor who recently moved to the vicinity of Xiao Lan's house."

"Sis, tell me more!"

"I want to know the specifics."

At this moment, Sonoko also became serious.

Obviously.

She knew about her sister's relationship with Dunzi, and she also knew about her sister's investigations over the years, which is why she thought of recommending Lin Mo.

While we're at it, let's test the waters!

After all, he was someone who appeared by Xiaolan's side. Even though she had only met Lin Mo once, Lin Mo's eyes, which seemed to see through everything, still gave her a deep-seated sense of dread.

But now...

The price her older sister paid truly shocked her!

Although the entertainment company was mediocre, the amount they used to pay for a case was, frankly, incomprehensible to her.

Although we are wealthy, we are not fools!

the other side.

After hearing her younger sister's words, Ayako didn't hide anything and told the whole story.

"That's about it!"

"It's not really a matter of whether it's worth it or not. As long as it can truly solve the problem, then spending any amount of money is worthwhile in my opinion."

"And Lin Mo is right, he is not a detective and has no interest in taking on cases."

"They weren't trying to curry favor with the Suzuki family, and they've already sensed our sisters' probing. Even if they might have had the idea of ​​being friends with you before, they've probably given up completely now."

"Under these circumstances, why shouldn't they ask for an exorbitant price?"

"Sonoko, get this straight!"

"The truth is that they originally didn't want to take the commission. It was our sisters who, out of a desire to test the waters, said things like 'they can name their price.'"

"Therefore, you can't call them greedy; it's just an equal exchange!"

Ayako spoke softly, her eyes perfectly calm.

Having figured this out, Sonoko had to admit that her older sister was right!

Sonoko doesn't care about making friends or anything like that.

For her, having Xiaolan as her best friend was enough; it was Lin Mo's troublesome nature that alarmed her, allowing such a character to intrude into Xiaolan's world.

Is it really good?

Oh well!

Anyway, with me watching over things, there's a high chance nothing will happen.

"Okay, got it."

"But I really didn't expect that Lin Mo was such a hidden talent."

"He looks like an ordinary person, yet he has his own dedicated staff."

"That's really interesting!"

"Sis, if there's any new news about your entertainment company, please let me know."

After saying that.

After yawning, Sonoko put down her coffee cup and prepared to go upstairs to rest for a while.

Ayako nodded upon hearing this.

The two sisters were only curious about what would happen next. As for whether the artists from that entertainment company would be affected by this incident, or even suffer a significant drop in popularity and losses...

Hehe!

The two sisters didn't care, they didn't even care at all.

To put it bluntly...

They were indeed raised very well by their families, and they have the typical capitalist attitude.

They don't care about the lives of others as long as they can achieve their goals!

The artists and employees of that entertainment company were merely innocent pawns placed on the chessboard.
