Conan: I Am Not a Snake Spirit

"I understand," Sakawa Xiaozi responded, as if listening to the person on the other side. After a moment of silence, he asked, "Mr. Takiguchi wants to talk to you on the phone. Is it convenient for you?"

"Please give him your phone," Chi Feichi said.

"Okay, please wait a moment."

There was still the sound of wind accompanied by the rustling voices on the other side of the phone. After a moment, a rich male voice came, "Hello, I am Kotaro Takiguchi..."

Kotaro Takiguchi?

Chi Feichi felt that the name was familiar. After a moment of recall, he found the corresponding character from the memory of the original consciousness.

The president of Takiguchi Metallurgical Industry Co., Ltd., Kotaro Takiguchi.

Takiguchi Metallurgical Industry Co., Ltd. has multiple non-ferrous metal smelting and processing plants. It has been the metal parts supplier of the Mayike Group in Japan since many years ago.

For example, for some popular non-ferrous metal accessories, or some non-ferrous metal accessories that do not involve manufacturing secrets and are simple to make, the manufacturing department of the Makike Group will place orders with Takiguchi Metallurgical Industry Co., Ltd. and hand over these parts to Takiguchi Metallurgical Industry The company is responsible for production.

The Mayike Group and Takiguchi Metallurgical Industry Co., Ltd. have cooperated for decades. When Takiguchi Metallurgical Industry Company expanded its scale in the past few years, it even received capital injections from the Mayike Group.

Now, Makike Group's shares in Takiguchi Metallurgical Industry Co., Ltd. have been transferred to Umbrella. At the same time, Takiguchi Metallurgical Industrial Co., Ltd. has never accepted and does not intend to accept capital injections from other consortiums or large companies. Therefore, Takiguchi Metallurgical Industry Co., Ltd. It is definitely an 'Umbrella' company, and Kotaro Takiguchi can definitely be regarded as a loyal fan of Shinnosuke Ike.

In the years when the competition between the Maike Group and the Yatsushiro Foundation's shipbuilding department was most intense, that is, in the years when the original consciousness was born, although several companies, including Takiguchi Metallurgy, were not involved in the core of the Maike Group's manufacturing department, They have also been suppressed or co-opted by the Yatsushiro Consortium, but Takiguchi Metallurgical led by Kotaro Takiguchi has always stood firmly on the side of the Mayike Group.

It wasn't until the Ike family separated and left Japan, and Shinnosuke Ike shifted his development direction abroad. The intensity of competition between the Ike Group and the Yatsushira Consortium gradually decreased, and Takiguchi Metallurgical ushered in a period of development. With the help and investment of the Ike Group, Next, several expansions were made.

In the memory of the original consciousness, the Chi family mentioned Kotaro Takiguchi, and people who were close to the Chi family also mentioned Kotaro Takiguchi. When the original consciousness was very young, Kotaro Takiguchi visited the Chi family more than once.

The original consciousness was too young at that time, and the memories of Kotaro Takiguchi were incomplete. In my impression, he was an uncle with slightly darker skin, a loud laugh, and no different from ordinary people.

In other people's words, in addition to the "reliability" and "sincerity" repeatedly mentioned by the Chi family, most people's evaluation of Takiguchi Kotaro is inseparable from one word - workaholic.

Even a workaholic like Shinnosuke Ike who loves his work has personally labeled Kotaro Takiguchi a ‘workaholic’, and has repeatedly stated that working with a workaholic like Kotaro Takiguchi is very comfortable and efficient.

Kotaro Takiguchi seems to be seven or eight years older than Shinnosuke Ike, but it is said that he was obsessed with career when he was young and was unwilling to put too much thought into other things. He never got married until the company developed in the past two years. It's almost over. Takiguchi Kotaro is no longer as obsessed with his career as before. He has found a suitable person and got married this year...

Unexpectedly, he would meet Kotaro Takiguchi and his new wife during this trip.

When Chi Feichi was reminiscing, Takiguchi Kotaro took the initiative and asked, "Is this Master Feichi of the Chi family?"

"It's me," Chi Feichi retracted his thoughts, "Long time no see, Mr. Takiguchi."

"So you still remember me?" Takiguchi Kotaro was a little surprised, his tone even more revealing of the joy of meeting again after a long separation, "It seems that we haven't seen each other for more than ten years. The last time we met, you were still a child. Where’s the boy!”

Chi Feichi doesn't mind saying nice things to his family's loyal supporters, "It's true that we haven't seen each other for more than ten years, but my father will mention you to me every year. It's hard for me to forget you. You got married this year." At that time, my father also mentioned this matter to me, but I was a little uncomfortable at the time and was receiving treatment in the hospital, so I couldn't go to the wedding banquet to congratulate you. I didn't expect to meet you and your wife here today. "

"Yeah, I didn't expect to meet here today," Takiguchi Kotaro said happily, and then asked with concern, "By the way, when I got married, I also heard Mr. Shinnosuke say that you were feeling a little uncomfortable. I didn't know that you How is the situation now?"

"It's much better now." Chi Feichi said.

"That's good," Takiguchi Kotaro's voice was always smiling, "If you are free later, I hope you will give me a chance to visit."

"My yacht will dock at about twelve o'clock, and I will invite you and your wife to be guests here," Chi Feichi said, "I won't disturb your dinner now."

"Okay," Takiguchi Kotaro responded with a smile, "Then we'll see you later!"

The phone hangs up.

Conan saw Chi Feichi handing the phone back to the butler, and curiously inquired about the situation, "Brother Chi, does he know Mr. Takiguchi who invited Genta and the others to the boat for lunch?"

"That Mr. Takiguchi is the president of Takiguchi Metallurgical Industry Company. Takiguchi Metallurgical Industry Company and Machi Group have been cooperating for decades."

Chi Feichi explained, his thoughts drifting away.

In fact, when Kotaro Takiguchi got married, that is when he was admitted to Aoyama Fourth Hospital. If Kotaro Takiguchi hadn't just gotten married at that time, and Shinnosuke Ike didn't want to cause trouble to the newlyweds, he would have probably let him live in Kotaro Takiguchi's house. , and will not let him go to Ganshan Kensan's house.

But then again, as long as that person wants him to come into contact with the organization, he can't avoid it no matter where he lives.

Hmm... The reason why he thought of this was because he suddenly wondered - did Takiguchi Kotaro know that he had lived in the Matoyama Kenzo family?

Although after the murder of Kenzo Mayama was exposed, his cheap dad blocked the news that he was staying at Kenzo Mayama's house, but before the incident happened, his father did not know that Kenzo Mayama would kill people, even when he was staying at Kenzo Mayama's house. When I was at home, I didn't know that I would be so deeply involved in the organization, and I didn't pay attention to keeping it confidential.

After Takiguchi Metallurgical Industry Co., Ltd. developed over the years, it also cooperated with the company of the well-known automobile dealer Masama Kenzo for many years. Takiguchi Kotaro is not only familiar with his father, but also knows Masama Kenzo. Maybe he has heard of this matter. .

Under normal circumstances, Kotaro Takiguchi would certainly not publicize this matter, but with the Death God student here, sometimes the clues might get directly into the face of a Death God student...

Chi Feichi glanced at Conan, retracted his thoughts, and focused his eyes on the fishing rod.

However, Belmod has already left Conan with the seeds of doubting him. He no longer cares when the seeds will sprout. It doesn't matter if Kotaro Takiguchi mentions Kenzo Masayama later.

Now he wants to focus on fishing.
