Conan: Another Famous Detective

At seven o'clock in the evening, Director Hakuba drove his car and arrived outside a traditional Japanese-style building.

As soon as he got out of the car, he saw two other cars parked outside the house.

One of the cars is quite luxurious. It is a limited edition of Lamborghini and is worth more than 200 million yen.

But Director Baima just glanced at it and paid no more attention.

This kind of luxury car is not difficult for a person of his status to get.

His attention was focused more on the other car.

This car is not as luxurious as the previous one. At first glance, it looks like an ordinary Ford off-road vehicle. The vehicle as a whole does not look new, and there are even signs of modifications.

Looking at this ordinary car, Director Baima felt a shiver in his heart.

The last time I saw this car, the person who got out of the car was the current commander of the US military in Japan, Edmick Yellen.

"It's really... there's no such thing as a good banquet!" Director Baima sighed inwardly, came to the door, and rang the doorbell gently.

"Here we come!" came a gentle female voice. After a while, the door opened, revealing a graceful woman in kimono.

"Ah! It's the white horse! It's been a long time since I've been here!" the woman said with a smile.

"Yes! After all, Chief Gutian has many things to do, so he really doesn't dare to come over and disturb him." Director Baima said with a smile.

"What's the matter? He likes to drink some wine by himself as soon as he comes back from work, or simply spends time in the study room reading. He's so bored that I wish someone could come over and disturb him!"

Director Baima smiled and wisely did not answer the question.

As a wife, it is okay to complain about her husband a little bit, but it would be rude for him as a subordinate to participate in this topic.

Under the guidance of Gutian's wife, Director Baima came to the living room.

At this time, three men were sitting on the sofa, talking harmoniously.

Director Hakuba scanned them one by one, and the person facing the door of the living room was his immediate superior, the Chief of the Police Department—Tanida Yuichi.

Sitting on the left side of Tanita Yuichi is a man with a hard face, blue eyes, deep features, a light beard, and light blond hair combed back, looking very capable.

The man on the right is a middle-aged oriental man with a thin body, a long face, a slightly pointed chin, black hair and black eyes.

"Here comes the Hakuba!" Yuichi Tanita saw the Hakuba arriving, stood up, and said hello with a smile.

"Sir Gutian, excuse me." Director Baima bowed in return.

Yuichi Tanita raised his hand slightly and introduced the guest on his left with a smile:

"Major General Edmick Yellen, commander of U.S. forces in Japan, and an old friend of mine."

"Mr. Hakuba, I'm glad to meet you. Japan's public security cannot be so good without the efforts of the Metropolitan Police Department." Yellen said with a standard smile on her lips in not very standard Japanese.

"I am also honored to meet Major General Yellen." Director Baima said with a smile: "When I attended the Major General's inauguration ceremony, I was deeply impressed by the Major General's demeanor."

The two exchanged pleasantries and shook hands politely.

"Then this..." Yuichi Tanita introduced the guest on the right: "This is the Deputy Minister of Defense, Yamazaki Takayuki."

"Director Hakuba and I have met several times, so we can be considered acquaintances." Yamazaki Takayuki said with a smile.

"Haha, Minister Yamazaki has outstanding abilities, and I have always admired him." Director Hakuba said politely, and his heart became more solemn.

None of Tanita Yuichi's two guests is simple.

Moreover, their identities made Director Baima have some guesses about the purpose of this dinner party.

He had a calm expression on his face, and after chatting with Yuichi Tanita for a while, Tanita's wife came to invite everyone to sit down.

During the dinner, Yuichi Tanida, as the host, took the initiative to stir up topics and chatted with several guests, keeping the atmosphere harmonious.

Director Hakuba has been coping with Smiley Face, but he is secretly paying attention to Tanida Yuichi's words and deeds.

"The chief is more enthusiastic about Yellen, and Yamazaki seems to be aware of this, but has been catering to the chief's topic..."

Analyzing silently in his mind, he already had a general understanding of the current status of the three of them.

Understanding this, he can better guess Tanida Yuichi's attitude when talking about business in the future, so as to make the correct response.

After more than an hour, dinner was over.

Yuichi Tanita enthusiastically invited several people to his study to enjoy his collection of antiques.

No one refused, everyone knew that they were about to get down to business.

After asking his wife to make a pot of tea and bring it to the study, he motioned for her to leave.

After Gutian's wife bowed slightly to the guests, she withdrew and silently closed the study door.

"Everyone, please sit down, Hakuba, sit next to me." Yuichi Tanida gestured with a smile.

Director Baima naturally did not dare to have any objections and sat on the side of the grain field as instructed.

Seeing this, the other two guests were not polite and found their own seats to sit down.

Yuichi Tanita looked around and said, "Everyone, let's skip the pleasantries and get to the point."

"Okay." Yellen replied in a deep voice, showing the resoluteness of a soldier.

Yamazaki, who originally wanted to exchange a few words, suddenly froze his smile, then nodded casually and said, "I don't have any objection either."

Director Baima did not speak, and Tanita did not listen to his intention to express his position. After seeing that Yellen and Yamazaki had no objections, he immediately said: "Regarding Zeping's matter, do you still stick to your original attitude?"

When Director Baima heard this, he thought to himself that it was true.

Naturally, he has not forgotten who [Zeping] is - the arms dealer behind Toyokawa.

And that arms dealer was connected to a person called [Mr. Uchida] who was suspected to be a senior government official.

He looked at Yamazaki calmly, and couldn't help but feel a little surprised: "I didn't expect that the Deputy Minister of Defense was involved. It was indeed right to report the matter to Chief Tanita first."

Not to mention Director Hakuba's thoughts, on the other hand, Yamazaki's face was obviously a little worried.

Tanita Yuichi's attitude was really rude and he didn't give him any face at all.

He pursed his lips and forced a smile: "I don't understand what Mr. Tanita said..."

"I didn't come here to see you pretending to be stupid!" Before Yuichi Tanita could do anything, Yellen had already coldly interrupted Yamasaki.

"To tell you the truth, your secretary has been controlled. This guy is just a weakling. Just before I came, he had already confessed and admitted that he was that [Mr. Uchida]. Do you want me to show you the confession?" look?"

Hearing this, Yamazaki's face suddenly turned ugly.
