58
Everyone in the upper class circles of the island country knows that... the Saegae family has been... a little strange lately.
Everyone knows the plight of their family.
Everyone wants to see whether the Sanzhi family will choose to decay until death or emerge from the cocoon into a butterfly, wait for a miracle or turn into ashes in nirvana.
There are many possibilities, but only two endings.
Success or failure.
Can……
Is their family going crazy lately?
All content that was previously planned for innovation has been suspended, and some cooperation has been suspended even if it loses money.
It made everyone think there was something wrong with this cooperation.
It offended the project partner to death.
To say that they are determined to be old-fashioned... is not the case.
They actually spent huge sums of money to buy an island.
Already under discussion.
There are many small islands in Neon Country. For the country, these islands are indispensable, because each island will be associated with a large ocean territory.
In the dispute over the Diaoyu Islands, why is Wanwan the most anxious person?
Diaoyu Island is too close to Wanwan.
Once the Diaoyu Islands are owned by Neon, a large area of the sea will also be owned by others, and half of the fishermen will be unemployed.
Yet sovereignty is firmly held.
The sale of ownership is very capitalist.
It's just that small islands with development value have long been monopolized by far-sighted plutocrats.
The rest are either difficult to develop and will not recoup costs, or they are garbage islands without resources.
It's obviously this kind of garbage island that Sanzhi is trying to buy.
Why? Is there any mystery about this island? Or is the Saegashi family really having a collective brain attack?
The island is not about chocolate, just buy it if you want.
So the news has just been released.
The next news is the real deal.
The Saegashi family got a rare treasure, so dazzling and extraordinary that just looking at the photos is enough to get addicted to it.
Such gems cannot be bought with money.
You have to be lucky enough.
Or why do rich people like to buy top-notch jewelry?
It is not only beautiful and valuable, but also has metaphysical activities that represent your own destiny.
Even if the Suzuki family's black pearl has lost its luster, it is still a symbol of the rise and prosperity of the Suzuki Consortium.
If you can buy it, buy it.
Why don't you just hold a tasting in private?
Communicate on a small scale within upper-class circles.
The result?
Sanzhi held a big banquet as soon as he came up.
All celebrities from all walks of life are invited.
Each invitation was printed with the autograph and family emblem of the head of the Sanzhi family.
The gold-edged dark-grained paper is smoked with special spices, and you can smell the prudence of the Sanzhi family.
Opening the invitation, there is a 360-degree photo of the gem inside.
There are photos of gemstones taken alone, and photos taken with beautiful women.
The beauty is an international top-tier supermodel. She is naked, with her arms folded, and her vagina is cushioned by gems.
The visuals and artistry are superb.
Even though the supermodel only showed half of her face, industry insiders commented that this photo is enough to be regarded as one of the classic photos in the supermodel's career.
Such a sensational and thoughtful post.
Showing off and pomp like a nouveau riche is not only unlike the style of the Saegashi family.
It feels more like attracting thieves.
Yes, it attracts thieves.
Who doesn't know that Kaitou Kidd likes to steal gems the most?
Although most of the gems he stole were returned.
It was also a little quirk that came about recently, most of which were attributed to Officer Nakamori and Detective Hakuba.
Who dares to bet?
All the major insurance companies are hesitating whether they will accept the Sanzhi family's policy or not.
As a result, after communicating with each other, it turned out that the Sanzhi family was not insured at all.
As soon as this news came out, the idea that the Sanzhi family was mentally ill became even more solid.
Then as expected, the invitation letter from Kaitou Kidd came.
The Sanzhi family refused police protection.
This kind of rejection actually made everyone in the upper class interested.
Everyone speculated whether the gems displayed by the Saegashi family were fake and the anti-theft equipment displayed by the Saegashi family was real. Are you planning to use Kaitou Kidd as a stepping stone to become famous in one battle?
If it was a high-tech technology that could guard against Kaito Kidd...Emmmm, I'm interested.
Whether they were those who guessed that the Saezhi family had another clever trick, or those who speculated that the Sanzhi family was mentally retarded, quite a few people came to this gathering.
Almost all the famous families and forces in Japan sent people.
For the already declining Sanzhi family, it is really an unprecedented face.
All the servants shuttled back and forth in high spirits, making sure to make all the guests feel at home.
The members of the Sanzhi family held wine glasses and entertained the distinguished guests with great vigor.
Why do rich people like to hold cocktail parties?
This contact, this exchange of information, this signal of release is money! It’s the future!
"Isn't this Cousin Oden!"
"Yuanzi, you came so early."
"Of course, I won't miss Kaitou Kidd!!!" Sonoko's eyes were already filled with stars, but she didn't forget to introduce Xiaolan.
"This is my friend Xiaolan and her father, the famous detective, Mouri Kogoro. By the way, this is Conan."
"Nice to meet you... Mr. Mori." Saegusa Oden's expression was a little subtle. After thinking about it, he took out an amulet from his pocket and handed it to Kogoro Mori.
"This is……"
"Please, Mr. Maori, please take it with you. This is a very powerful magician's amulet to ward off evil spirits." He felt very sad to give it to me, but he really had to be on guard.
"Why give it to me?"
"Mr. Maori, rumors have it... I'm sorry, but this cocktail party is very important to our Saegusa family."
Maori Kogoro, Ran, Conan: …………
It's damn hard to refuse.
Even if the three of them are firm materialists, they are embarrassed to say NO.
Watching Maori Kogoro put the amulet into his pocket, Saegusa Oden took him to the dessert area that women and children can't refuse the most and then politely left.
"Sister Sonoko, who is that Saegusa Oden? You call him cousin, are you relatives?"
Sonoko gave a face-saving popular science. How many families are there in the Saegusa family, what is Saegusa Oden's rank, etc.
"If we count the relationship, it's probably complicated, but if we count the blood relationship, in the entire Sanzhi family, only Sanzhi Oden is my cousin. Her mother and my mother are cousins. But our relationship is just average."
Don't think that Sonoko is careless, chasing stars and being crazy about flowers, she doesn't look like a rich lady at all.
But she still has a complete grasp of the required courses of a rich lady.
For example, there is a perfect genealogy in her mind. Who is related to whom, what is the recent dynamic of whose family, who is not in harmony with whom, etc., Miss Sonoko knows everything in her mind.
So every time there is a cocktail party, Sonoko can easily take on the role of "narrator". Introduce the identity and background of each suspect to Conan.
Kogoro is still complaining about why he has to wear a ghost amulet, and he is unhappy and drinks a glass of wine.
Sonoko has already muttered and revealed the recent abnormality of the Sanzhi family clearly.
Xiaolan heard a gossip, Conan analyzed among these messages... which of these people will become the replacement target of Kaito Kid.
Yes, as a loving couple...
Except for the first time when Conan was careless, he didn't know how many times he "caught" Kid afterwards, but he always had a reason to let Kid go.
For the sake of the pigeon, for the sake of the garden, for the sake of the children, for the sake of your help this time, for the sake of...
Uh, I can't count them all.
Anyway, as long as Kid returns the gem, everything will be fine.
And Kid, who was determined to find the Moon Stone, was supposed to return the stone.
So the strongest detective stood up again and again, and Kuroba Kaito also helped Conan at critical moments again and again.
Helped to conceal his identity, helped to find evidence, helped to save people, and helped to coax his girlfriend...
No wonder Shinran's confession was successful, but the Corgi flag still stood up. You really...just stay together.
It just so happens that brotherly articles are not allowed to be written now, and the fact that you two look exactly the same is a consolation.
Let's put aside the CP fans' circle of self-love.
Sonoko's exclamation drew back Conan's exploring gaze.
window._taboola = window._taboola || ; _taboola.push({ mode: 'thumbs-feed-01', container: 'taboola-below-article-thumbnail---300x250', placement: 'Below article thumbnail - 300x250', target_type: 'mix' });
Following Sonoko's gaze.
Conan's pupils also condensed.
Even if the hair became shorter, even if the clothes changed.
That face, that temperament, that person, can't be forgotten in just over a month of separation.
That mysterious "practitioner". That "doctor" named Wu Ding.
Maori Kogoro still only had wine in his eyes, but Conan, Xiaolan, and Sonoko began to discuss with doubts.
They were not surprised to meet again.
After all, neon is only that big.
What they were curious about was the attitude of the Sanzhi family towards this person.
The head of the Sanzhi family was now walking side by side with this man, not side by side, but slightly behind him.
It was not obvious because the two of them were walking and stopping.
But if you look closely, you will find that the head of the Sanzhi family is mainly based on that person.
"Could he be the illegitimate son of the Sanzhi family who was living outside and came back recently to seize power successfully?"
"Sonoko..."
"Sonoko sister..."
Conan and Xiaolan looked at Sonoko speechlessly.
"Go ask and you will know." Sonoko pulled Xiaolan and ran there.
The identity of the second daughter of the Suzuki chaebol family At the age of 17, lively and innocent, Suzuki Sonoko had enough capital to be a little bit out of line.
"Mr. Sanzhi."
"Ms. Suzuki."
After greeting, Sonoko went straight to the point and greeted Wu Ding.
"I didn't expect Miss Suzuki to know him. Mr. Wu Ding is a distinguished guest of the Sanzhi family. He cured my father's illness." Sanzhi Shogo only said this ambiguous sentence, and then stepped back, letting Wu Ding and Sonoko talk on their own.
Conan once again relied on his height as a child to show a thoughtful expression.
Although the Kudo family is not a chaebol, they are definitely wealthy people who have seen the world. Just now, Sanzhi Shogo definitely did not regard Wu Ding as a lifesaver.
Soon Conan realized that now was not the time to delve into these small details.
Xiaolan and Sonoko (the emphasis is on Xiaolan) have been talking non-stop around the suspicious man
"Mr. Wu Ding, thank you so much for that herbal bag." Xiaolan blushed and bowed to thank him.
When a lover is missing, being able to meet him in a dream can also relieve the pain of missing him.
In the dream, Shinichi is always active at various crime scenes.
But at least I can be with him, instead of looking at his back, not knowing when we can meet again.
Conan: Damn it! So what is that herbal bag for! ! Why didn't Xiaolan tell me!
"You're welcome, the effect of the herbal medicine is very long-lasting, Miss Maori can rest assured."
"Just call me Xiaolan."
Conan: Furious.
"Mr. Wu Ding, I went back for a physical examination and there is nothing wrong with my body."
"Really? That's great." Wu Ding glanced at Conan and insisted again on getting the anesthetic and bringing it back for the benefit of all mankind.
Conan felt like being stared at by a venomous snake when he looked at him.
It made him more certain that there must be something wrong with this person.
"Could the big brother be Kaito Kidd!" The sweet childish voice was played at a very high decibel.
"Conan!"
"But I really want to meet Kaito Kidd!" He continued to act cute. "Isn't he the big brother?"
Kidd hiding in the dark: Hey, hey, hey, don't make a fuss about me, little detective.
By the way, is there something wrong with this person?
Conan's childish words were exchanged for the kind smiles of the people around him.
Wu Ding pinched his face to show that he was not a disguise.
The people of the Sanzhi family immediately testified that this person was a benefactor, a great guest, and the previous owner of the "Princess Under the Moon".
Very good, this identity cannot be Kaito Kidd.
Kidd: In other words, if I change into him later, no one will doubt it, right?
Very good, go over and find out.
A charming beauty walked towards Conan and the others with a standard model step.
People around her would show admiration and praise when they saw her.
Regardless of her status, this person's beauty is recognized by the whole world.
"Isn't this Sonoko? I haven't seen you for a few years. You look better and better."
"Alisha!" Sonoko was very happy to see the beautiful lady. "Long time no see. I didn't expect you to return to China. The photos you took this time are really beautiful!"
"Thank you for the compliment."
Sonoko immediately introduced Alisha.
This is Alisha Evelyn, a Japanese-French hybrid. Her Japanese name is Oki Ritsuko.
She is the top model who took promotional photos with gemstones on her chest.
Obviously, the Suzuki Group, which is involved in various industries, also cooperates with this top supermodel.
The purpose of Alisha's coming here is very simple, just for Wu Ding.
She sighed that her youth is gone and she wanted to retire.
She sighed that people always feel lonely when they are abroad, so she decided to return to Japan.
As a woman, no matter how hard she works, she still hopes to have someone to accompany her on cold nights.
Even if she doesn't take off her shining light, she still hopes that someone can appreciate it side by side.
Every move exudes a different style.
Slender fingers lazily flicked the hair, looking at Wu Ding expectantly.
The thin red lips were slightly opened, and the gray-blue eyes were hazy like water mist.
Even a blind person can see that the beauty is teasing you.
Xiaolan and Sonoko pulled Conan to retreat without leaving a trace.
Conan struggled and was unwilling to leave the "suspicious person".
Just when Elisa, no, it should be Kidd, was about to stick to Wu Ding.
The lights dimmed.
A mechanism slowly rose.
It was the theme of this banquet, "Princess Under the Moon" slowly rose from the ground.
"So fast?" Sonoko's surprised question was exactly what the guests present, especially Kidd, wanted to ask.
Shouldn't the normal process be.
You, you, say a few words.
Then talk about how the gem came from, how beautiful it is, and then provoke Kidd a few words, and introduce this "foolproof" defense measures.
After pushing the atmosphere to **, will the gem rise again?
You don't follow the routine, it's too much!
No one knows Kidd's dissatisfaction.
Others' dissatisfaction quickly disappeared under the beauty of the gem.
Under the spotlight.
The beautiful gem showed its incomparable beauty to everyone.
And because of the clever lighting and the arrangement of special glass cabinets.
Everyone can see that the gem seems to form a hazy figure of a woman.
This is obviously a beauty that cannot be recorded by photography and can only be captured by the naked eye.
Rare treasure!
Someone immediately offered a price to the Sanzhi family.
Money is only the lowest.
Other treasures, industries, cooperation, promises, status...
Tangible and intangible, whether it can be put on the table or not.
At this moment, they all turned into hints and flowed into the ears of the Sanzhi family.
Especially Sanzhi Shogo.
Just when everyone was screaming, obsessed with this gem, and wanted to take it for themselves.
The lights suddenly came on.
The gem was still beautiful, and Kidd had no time to make a move.
But everyone's eyes were not on the gem.
Next to the base of the gem, a bloody corpse caused all the women at the scene to scream.
When he saw the corpse for the first time, Kidd secretly glared at Conan: I knew you were up to no good.
Wu Ding looked at Kidd and then at Conan: Well, in terms of BUFF, Conan wins.
"This is... Meiko!" Someone recognized the dead person.
Although the deceased was wearing ordinary business attire and had a bloody face and a ferocious expression, one could still tell her identity if one looked carefully.
"Who is she?"
"She is Ms. Elisa's assistant."
Kid: WHAT? !
