Create a fantasy paradise starting from Conan

Can't women do that?

Do I have to rely on men?

Daughters should be self-reliant. Why can't I inherit the family business? Just because I'm a girl?

When she turned around, she noticed the gloomy expression on her face. Yukiko couldn't help but turned around and asked in a low voice:

"Did you...have a fight with your family?"

"I don't understand. Why can't women inherit the family business? Why do I have to find a man? I don't understand. How am I worse than a man?"

? ?

Yukiko was slightly startled, but quickly reacted.

She remembered clearly that this classmate introduced herself yesterday morning and said that she was the heir to the Tokiwa Group.

In other words, she is the only daughter of the Tokiwa family.

Obviously, the heir claim is just her own.

Her family should be more inclined to marry a son-in-law.

"I think it's possible that your parents are worried that you'll have a hard time in the future, so they want to find someone to share the burden with you, right?"

"Impossible! Just now, before I left home this morning, my father told me that if I didn't find a boyfriend before I graduated from high school, I should pick up a stray dog ​​from the street and let it inherit the Tokiwa Group."

Hearing the last sentence, Yukiko quickly covered her mouth to prevent herself from laughing out loud.

At this moment, the girl next to Tokiwa Mio couldn't help but laugh.

Seeing the two people looking at him, he hurriedly pinched his thighs with his hands and tried his best to hold back his laughter.

"Sorry, I didn't mean to eavesdrop. You guys were a little loud, and I overheard it unconsciously."

"Actually, I also think women are not necessarily inferior to men."

"It's just that many parents have outdated ideas and believe that women can't compare to men."

Tokiwa Mio looked back at her and lowered her head again.

Yukiko kept thinking of ways to comfort her, but after thinking about it, she felt that it was meaningless.

Everyone can say nice things, but that doesn't solve the problem.

At this time, what she needs is not some comfort measure, but a solution to the problem.

"Tokiwa-kun, let's talk about this over lunch break. If we all work together, we can definitely come up with a perfect strategy!"

……

Lunch break, in a corner of the cafeteria.

Seeing that Tokiwa Mio did not object, Yukiko quickly explained her current predicament in front of the white curtain.

"...That's about it. Do you have any good ideas?"

"Three ways. First, really find a boyfriend. If you have a man who is capable, shares your feelings, isn't power-hungry, and has a good personality, I think that would be a very happy thing."

At the end, Bai Mu shook his head slightly:

"However, this is very difficult, and most people don't have this kind of luck."

"The second method is to pay someone to pretend to be your boyfriend. Of course, there is a risk of the fake becoming real and being defrauded of money and sex."

"The third option is much easier. Just wait a month and Yukiko will be able to help. It's a perfect solution."

"Huh...? Me?"

Yukiko subconsciously pointed at herself, was slightly startled, and quickly reacted.

He must be talking about the art of disguise, where he disguises himself as a boy and pretends to be her boyfriend.

"This isn't much different from the second option, right? At most, the risk is lower."

"Isn't this enough?"

"Now that you put it that way, it's true."

Yukiko nodded slightly, then turned to look at Tokiwa Mio beside her and said confidently:

"In that case, Tokiwa-san, please wait for me for a month. I will be able to help you then."

"... "

A month? A beauty pageant?

Mio Tokiwa's mind moved slightly. Although she didn't understand what was going on, it seemed that she had to pay more attention to helping Yukiko win the championship.

"Thank you, then I'm welcome."

"Hehe... You're welcome. I'll be happy to teach you from now on. And when the time comes, please don't look down on me (your boyfriend), Tokiwa-san."

"I never dislike my friends. Also, call me Mio. Otherwise, it will be hard for me to say Yukiko's name."

"No problem, Mio."

……

In the evening, at the Kuroba family, Vermouth was the last one to arrive.

However, compared to yesterday's empty-handedness, today she was holding a bag containing four copies of each of the novels and comic magazines that Fujimine Magazine had just published today.

"Little boy, your family is making a big move. Where do you find all these novels and comics by the same author?"

"The quality is excellent. Bookstores are in short supply. I searched a lot before I could buy four copies."

!! ?

Our family?

Yukiko picked up one of the books in confusion and opened it gently.

Even though she seldom read comics, she could tell that these were extremely excellent works.

But the problem is that the author's name is all Fujimine Masakane.

The same thing happened with another fiction magazine.

“How is this possible…!?”

"These are all excellent works. If they were produced by hired guns, that would be totally unacceptable."

"Novels are fine, but comics are weekly, with one chapter per week. What ghostwriter can achieve such a level?"

"Besides, when did Dad quit his job to work at the magazine?"

"Am I dreaming?"

I tried pinching the back of my hand, and a pain came instantly.

"It hurts! This isn't a dream."

Seeing this, Bai Mu smiled and shook his head:

"Haven't I been telling you these past few days? I've written a few novels, drawn a few comics, and composed a few songs."

"If you weren't so bad at singing, you could have debuted right here."

"Novels and comics are nothing. In the future, our family will also enter many industries such as games and movies."

"I told Watanabe-san not to worry. I was hinting to her that we could sign her once our entertainment company was established."

"If the Teitan High School Drama Club has other acting talents, they can also sign them. Not to mention the second or third female lead, playing a supporting role should be no problem."

"In the future, you only need to concentrate on studying the various acting techniques. As for other matters, don't worry about it. Your uncle will take care of it."

"Besides, acting in my own company can save me from a lot of unnecessary troubles."

"Of course, on the other hand, there is also the risk of being ridiculed as someone who has connections or uses backdoors."

"However, as long as you are strong enough, these will not be a problem. Instead, they will turn into a storm, helping you soar to the sky."

Yukiko stared blankly at the white screen, a thousand thoughts swirling in her mind, which eventually came together into one sentence:

"Are you possessed by an alien? It's a little scary and hard to understand, but thank you anyway."

"You're welcome." Bai Mu said with a smile.

Vermouth stared at Baimu's cheek for a while and found that there was only strong confidence in his eyes, and she felt a little more curious.

After sending the two home yesterday, she immediately arranged for someone to investigate everything in the Fujimine family.

The investigation results showed that before he arrived in Tokyo by plane, everything was normal in the Fujimine family, and they were just an ordinary family.

But on that day, Yukiko's father resigned from the government department, borrowed money from everywhere, and bought a magazine company that was on the verge of bankruptcy at a premium.

Then, with triple wages, the employees were asked to work overtime and quickly produce two issues of the magazine.

That's right, no trace of any author or ghostwriter was found, the editorial department played no role at all, no revisions were made to either the comics or the novels, and work began immediately after the transfer contract was signed.

There are no meetings, it's a completely one-man show.

In the magazine, the author of all the novels and comics is Yukiko's father.

This kind of thing is unbelievable no matter how you look at it.

It’s like being certain that the magazine will be a hit.

Abnormal things must have a reason.

"You're really ambitious, but the magazine won't be able to recoup its funds that quickly. Do you want me to invest a little, little boy?"

? ?

Bai Mu's heart moved slightly. Vermouth should be quite rich, right?

If they could get her investment, the Fujimine family would develop faster.

Ultimately, this is the biggest shortcoming of the Fujimine family at the moment.

Although she doesn't want to have anything to do with the Black Organization, Vermouth's investment is not equal to the Black Organization's investment.

Still, the risks are too high.

There are too many variables in twenty-two years. Maybe in the future the Fujimine family will be swallowed up by the Karasuma Group.

Then again, this is the world of "Detective Conan", and the thing they have the most is money.

"Forget about the investment, but we could do some cooperation. In fact, I know the locations of many deep-sea shipwrecks and ancient treasures. If Miss Sharon is willing, we can split the profits 50-50."

Since Bai Lan's automatic path-finding mechanism can be used to find people, it can definitely be used to find treasures, right?

At worst, I still have the original plot to fall back on.

"Treasure hunt?"

Vermouth was filled with astonishment, then chuckled:

"Okay, when?"

"Tomorrow."

"Oh...? Isn't tomorrow a school day?"

"It's okay, I'll take a leave."

"In that case, I'll pick you up then. But do you trust me that much?"

"Well... I know the locations of many treasures. I don't think someone as smart as Miss Sharon would do something like this. Besides, a 50-50 split is a win-win situation, isn't it?"

Of course, Hei Yu Daoyi is also the reason why Bai Mu is confident that she will not turn against him.

As long as she still wants to learn the art of disguise, it will not be disadvantageous to her.

After all, she herself is not short of money.

She is not the kind of person who would abandon the hen that lays golden eggs for petty gains.

"In that case, then it's settled. I wish us a pleasant cooperation." Vermouth stretched out her right hand and shook hands lightly with Baimu.

"Okay, nice to work with."

Noticing Yukiko's burning gaze, Bai Mu reached out and patted her shoulder, shaking his head slightly:

"You will go to class as usual tomorrow."

"Huh...? That's not fair! I want to go treasure hunting, too."
