Conan: I Am Not a Snake Spirit

At 5:30 in the afternoon, those involved in the gate reconstruction went to have dinner in batches and then returned to the square to continue working.

Lights were turned on in the square, and after clearing away the ice from the collapsed gate, a group of people began to build a new gate.

Some people lifted the ice bricks out of the storage place and put them on the cart, and then used the cart to send the large ice bricks half a person's height to Tetsuya Shiota. Some people were responsible for lifting the ice cubes to make it easier for Tetsuya Shiota to carve. , the remaining people with carving experience are responsible for cutting and assisting in carving.

Gentai, Mitsuhiko, and Ayumi are very interested in cooperating to pull the cart. Dr. Ali also led the young detective team to join the transportation team.

Chi Feichi was interested in ice carving, so he asked a villager to get a chainsaw, communicated with Tetsuya Yantian, and cut the large ice bricks into the size Tetsuya Yantian wanted.

Subaru was worried that his fake face would fall off due to sweating too much, so he stayed at the carving area and helped lift the ice bricks to the shelf, and then took another electric saw to join the cutting team.

Tetsuya Shiota saw that the two of them were interested. When he stopped, he talked about some ice brick cutting skills, carving common sense and tips.

"I first learned stone carving. The teacher told me at the time that carving stones was very tiring and required sufficient physical strength and endurance. And I was interested in making large statues, so I was destined to do it. Doing the physical work of physical work..."

While Tetsuya Shiota was talking, Dr. Ari and five children pulled a cart to the side.

Guangyan still held the rope in his hand and asked with a smile, "Brother Chi, are you talking about withering again?"

Yuantai excitedly pointed to the big ice brick on the trolley, "We're sending another one!"

"Thank you for your hard work, everyone!" Mika Itakura stepped forward and said to Dr. Agasa with a grateful look on her face, "Mr. Agasa, just leave the rest of the work to us. You can take everyone to rest quickly!"

Dr. A Li looked at the half-formed ice bricks in the field and said hesitantly, "But..."

"I also support you to go to rest early," Tetsuya Shiota looked at Dr. Ari and said with a sincere expression, "And I hope you can take the children to stay in our ice hotel, which is a big house made of ice. You will be surprised when you see it.”

"A big house made of ice?"

When the three real children heard what Tetsuya Shiota said, their eyes suddenly lit up.

Seeing the children's interest, Dr. A Li no longer insisted on staying in the square to help.

Tetsuya Shiota paused what he was doing and sent the group to the Ice Withering Hotel with Itakura Mika.

The Ice Withered Hotel is some distance away from the square, and you need to pass through a forest in the middle.

There are no street lights on the forest path. Fortunately, the lights nearby are brighter and the path is smooth. This section of the road is not difficult to walk.

While walking on the road, Itakura Mika briefly talked about the features of the Ice Hotel, including the igloos arranged in a circle, the ice lake in the center like an ice mirror, the igloo's refrigeration equipment and various lights.

As he spoke, Itakura Mika continued to talk about the reason for building the Ice Hotel, "The Ice Hotel was specially built by Mr. Shiota to make the festival more grand..."

Tetsuya Shiota looked depressed, "I didn't expect it to backfire!"

"The mayor of Yamaguchi Village also said this during the day," Dr. Ali couldn't help but ask, "What on earth is going on?"

"It's a fact that the village's finances are in deficit," Itakura Mika sighed. "The village chief has always hoped that Dongdu Leisure Industry can enter our village, but there are no special attractions in our area, and Dongdu Leisure Industry has not responded. , until the village chief noticed that the ice hotel we built was characterized by the ice hotel, and he became interested in signing a contract with us. Unexpectedly, the festival could not be held as a result. "

The three real children could feel Itakura Mika's unwillingness and helplessness. They did not make any noise and listened quietly.

"The Ice Hotel was originally built for the festival, but it became the reason why the festival was forced to be held." Tetsuya Shiota frowned, "That kind of building... If I had known about it earlier, I wouldn't have built it!"

Chi Fei belatedly saw that Dr. A Li was in a state of being hesitant to speak again, so he took the initiative to say, "The leisure industry in Dongdu is not only coming to the Ice Withering Hotel, but also because of the knowledge of the Ice Withering Festival." People are attracted by the lifelike ice sculptures, so after signing a contract with the village, Dongdu Leisure Industry will not prevent the village from continuing to hold the ice sculpture festival, and may even invest in the festival. "

Itakura Mika was stunned for a moment, hearing the angle from which Chi Feichi said these words, and not sure whether Chi Feichi was simply comforting them, "But, but..."

"But how did Brother Chi know?" Guangyan asked bluntly.

Ayumi looked confused, "We don't know those people, how does Brother Chi know what they think?"

Yuantai nodded, "That is to say, who knows what those people think, maybe they, like the unpleasant village chief, don't want the festival to go ahead!"

Conan and Huiyuan Ai heard Chi Feichi speak so confidently, and they already had guesses in their minds.

Could it be that Dongdu Leisure Industry is...

"Because the Dongdu leisure industry that you said before 'may not be a good thing'," Chi Feichi looked at Haihara Ai, who had implicitly agreed with the children's speculations in the afternoon, "it is the investment and shareholding of the Field Group that exceeds 70% of the company, in addition to the remaining shares distributed to the company’s president and senior management, my mother also personally holds a part.”

"Why?!"

The three children exclaimed in unison and stopped with frightened expressions. Their reactions were so exaggerated that Conan was startled.

Itakura Mika and Shiota Tetsuya were so frightened that they stopped and looked at the children in confusion.

The look of horror on Yuantai's face gradually turned into confusion, "The investment by Field Group means that Dongdu Leisure Industry is related to Field Group, right? But what does Brother Chi mean by the distribution of shares and the like? "

"You don't even know what that means, why are your reactions so exaggerated?" Conan was speechless. "Field Group holds more than 70% of the shares of Dongdu Leisure Industry. It can also be said that Dongdu Leisure Industry is a subsidiary of Field Group and is subject to The companies controlled by the Field Group... Anyway, all you need to know is that Mrs. Kana is the big boss behind Dongdu’s leisure industry!”

"Furthermore, Mrs. Kana still has personal shares in Dongdu Leisure Industry, which means that she should be very optimistic about the development of Dongdu Leisure Industry, right?" Dr. A Li looked at Chi Feichi, "In other words, Dongdu Leisure Industry is important to her. It has special meaning."

"The capital injection into the Dongdu leisure industry was an investment proposed by my mother when she married in Japan. At that time, she had not taken over the Field Group. It was my grandmother who agreed to invest in the Dongdu leisure industry. As for the investment held by my mother personally, That part of the shares was my grandmother's personal investment and a wedding gift to her," Chi Feichi explained to Dr. Ali, then looked at Itakura Mika and Shiota Tetsuya who looked stunned, and his tone was always calm and determined, "Dong Dongdu Leisure Industry has special meaning to my mother. She could not let Dongdu Leisure Industry become a black-hearted development company that oppresses others to make profits. Moreover, when my mother heard that I was coming to Kawadu Village with the doctor, she told me, She likes the ice sculptures here very much, and the reason why she wants to develop this place is because she thinks the exquisite ice sculptures deserve to be seen by more people. She also recommended that I come to Kawato Village to see the ice sculptures festival.”

Itakura Mika heard that there was a mother's love for her daughter in this company. Thinking about the prejudiced impression she and the villagers had on Dongdu's leisure industry, the more she thought about it, the more guilty she became.

Moreover, all the villagers' complaints with personal prejudices were heard by the children of the big boss behind the Dongdu leisure industry. The other party was still here to seriously discuss this issue with him. When he thought of this, Itakura Mika wished he had a place on the ground. "I'm really sorry, Mr. Chi, we made such unfounded guesses about Dongdu's leisure industry after hearing what the village chief said..."

Tetsuya Shiota raised his hand and scratched the back of his head, with an embarrassed and apologetic smile on his face, "Sorry, I was quite hostile to Dongdu's leisure industry before."

"It doesn't matter," Chi Feichi didn't care about some of the angry words of the villagers. Although he didn't understand these people's arbitrary judgment that "Dongdu's leisure industry must be bad," he still said it in a beautiful scene, "I can understand everyone. At that time, everyone thought that the development of Dongdu’s leisure industry would lead to the suspension of the Ice Festival, and it is normal for them to be resentful of Dongdu’s leisure industry.”

"But Mrs. Kana told Brother Chi that she likes the Ice Withering Festival here very much, right? She has no reason to lie to Brother Chi. So, as long as she wants the Ice Withering Festival to continue, the Ice Withering Festival will not be cancelled. "Conan looked up at Chi Feichi with a trace of doubt in his eyes, "But before, the head of Yamaguchi Village said that this year was the last Ice Withering Festival, and he was very sure when he said it... There was a problem in the communication between the two parties. ?"

"Maybe, but maybe it's not a communication problem..." Chi Feichi started to move forward, "I don't know who is responsible for the Chuandu Village project, but the project negotiation process is wrong this time. Normally, Dongdu Leisure Industry Before formally signing an agreement with the village committee, the person in charge will arrange personnel to investigate the villagers' opinions on the development project. The number of people collecting opinions must be two-thirds of the village's permanent population or more than half of the village's registered population. The survey generally needs to collect two The first is whether the villagers support the development, and the second is what wishes the villagers have in terms of development, such as retaining the Ice Withering Festival, or trying not to damage the environment of a certain place. If many villagers have the same request, the person in charge We need to take it seriously and find a balance that everyone can accept between the villagers’ wishes and the development plan.”

Itakura Mika followed and recalled seriously, "About half a month ago, the village chief did issue a questionnaire to the villagers. However, the village was in financial difficulty. He said that if we wanted to attract investors or tourists, We need to show our friendly attitude. At that time, he had not said that the Ice Withering Festival would be cancelled. Everyone did not have hope for the village to win investment in Dongdu’s leisure industry, although they saw that Dongdu was mentioned in it. Leisure industry, but everyone thinks this is because the village chief sought medical treatment in a hurry and wanted to collect people’s friendly things to impress Dongdu’s leisure industry..."

"So when everyone filled out the questionnaire, they all agreed with the development. According to the village chief's request, when answering several questions, they all wrote no opinion..." Tetsuya Shiota clenched his hands hanging by his side. , gritted his teeth, his eyes were full of anger, and his bearded face was so angry that he was a little distorted, "In other words, he was completely deceiving everyone at that time, right? He deliberately led everyone to fill it out like that! "
