Conan’s Corpse Picker

Jiang Xia nodded, and before Hidehiko Kazama came over, he whispered to Toru Amuro at a volume that could not be heard over there: "I met him last time when I came here. I remember his name was Hidehiko Kazama, and he was Moritani. Teiji's apprentice - by the way, you know Moritani Teiji. He is an architect I met accidentally before and had some communication with him."

Toru Amuro: "..."

Architectural designers with whom you have had some communication?

Are you referring to the obsessive-compulsive disorder master who was thrown into jail by you and later shouted that he wanted to sue you?

...Fortunately, the matter was suppressed in the end. Maybe it was because Moritani was timid, or maybe he was afraid of being knocked down by Jiang Xia. In short, in the end, the situation was much easier to handle than expected.

Toru Amuro recalled what happened at that time and pressed his forehead tiredly - Moritani Teiji installed a large number of bombs on the ring line and the municipal center. Once detonated, the consequences would be disastrous. He did pay attention to this matter.

And when he thought of Moritani Teiji, and then looked at Hidehiko Kazama who was approaching, Toru Amuro couldn't help but look more closely at him: What is the disciple of that kind of bomb maniac looking for Jiang Xia?

Jiang Xia looked at Hidehiko Kazama who was approaching, and also didn't know why he was so familiar.

——Could it be that after his master was imprisoned, Hidehiko Kazama, whose ideas were different from those of his master, finally had a chance to express himself, so he was particularly pleasing to his "benefactor"?

…

Hidehiko Kazama is indeed quite friendly to Jiang Xia.

He quickly walked through the banquet hall and walked to Jiang Xia. He turned around and glanced at the floor-to-ceiling window next to him: "Why are you here? I thought you would definitely go to the opposite side to admire Mount Fuji."

As he said that, Hidehiko Kazama looked out the window and saw the roof of Building B.

Recalling the low-pitched discussion between Amuro Toru and Jiang Xia just now, Kazama Hidehiko suspected that the two people were discussing the design of the building, and couldn't help but explain:

“Actually, I originally wanted to see Mount Fuji from both buildings, but unfortunately due to the shape of the land acquired by the chairman, it was really difficult to realize that idea.

"But it's okay now, you have to distinguish building AB. If the two buildings are exactly the same, then what's the difference between building AB? I actually don't like symmetry. After taking it apart, two identical things will only erase each other's beauty. Value, only unique objects are the most precious!”

Jiang Xia: "..." No, I'm not very interested in the design concept of the building, and it's about to be rebuilt anyway.

Toru Amuro had a very bad impression of Moritani Teiji, so when facing Hidehiko Kazama, he inevitably put on some colored glasses: the art world pays special attention to the inheritance of masters and apprentices - this person should not be like his teacher. Let's do something like "blow up all the works that don't suit your aesthetics"...

Hidehiko Kazama was talking to his confidant when he suddenly felt a chill.

He shivered suddenly. Looking around, I couldn't help but be surprised: there should be no air-conditioning circulation device in this location. Could it be that there is air leakage from the window?

…

The dedicated designer raised his head and began to carefully examine the corners of the floor-to-ceiling windows.

At this time, as the sun completely set, the hall suddenly became silent.

Chairman Tokiwa, dressed in attire, walked onto the stage.

"Thank you very much for taking the time to come today. The opening ceremony of the Tokiwa Foundation Twin Towers Skyscraper is about to begin."

Tokiwa Mio smiled and said: "However, before the official start, we have designed a small sideshow and want to invite everyone to play a game."

Toru Amuro looked up quickly, always feeling that this line sounded strange, very in line with Uzo's aesthetics, and very much like the prelude to a battle royale.

But fortunately, Chairman Tokiwa did not behave like "smiling sinisterly, and then clang clang clang clanging down some roller shutters around the venue, trapping the guests in the venue."

She just stood on the stage very normally and introduced loudly:

"Today is the 30th anniversary of the Tokiwa Foundation - so let's play a 'guess for 30 seconds' game.

"It is forbidden to look at the watch. Start counting the time and count silently for 30 seconds. The person who has no error at all, or the person who guesses the closest..."

She raised her arm wearing black gauze gloves and motioned to the display platform next to the stage: "You can take the convertible sports car in front of you home."

"!" The young detective team was stunned and suddenly became excited.

Genta and Mitsuhiko whispered in a corner where Jiang Xia couldn't see: "Isn't this the game we played a few days ago when we went camping? I remember Ayumi guessed very accurately!"

Ayumi nodded happily, but suddenly remembered something and hesitated.

She quickly turned her little head and looked around, as if trying to find something in the crowd.

…

Not only the children were attracted by this "game", but the adults in the hall were also impressed.

——Even if the invited people have some status, this sports car can definitely be regarded as a huge prize. Especially some young talents whose families are very strict and want to buy a sports car but cannot afford it.

Chairman Tokiwa stood gracefully on the stage.

After the whispers in the hall gradually stopped, she continued:

"However, if two or more guests guess correctly, the winner can only be determined by guessing the game - the person who comes in second can ride the mountain off-road vehicle."

She smiled and pointed to a bicycle next to the sports car.

Next to the bicycles, there are some beautifully packaged small gift boxes, which are obviously participation prizes for those who accompany the runners.

The young detective team looked at the bicycles with their eyes brighter: "Isn't this better? We can't drive anyway!"

——While camping, I experienced the accuracy of Bumi's "guess in 30 seconds". At this time, several naughty kids had already fast forwarded to how to maintain their bicycles.

Ayumi, who had high hopes from Genta and Mitsuhiko, was becoming more and more uneasy at this time.

She looked around and whispered: "...Where did Conan go?"

When I glanced around, I couldn't find Conan at all, but I suddenly saw Jiang Xia, who was quite conspicuous in the crowd.

Ayumi slowly thought of something and her eyes froze.

She looked at Jiang Xia, who was standing not far from the stage, and was briefly confused.

…

The warm-up games begin soon.

"Everyone who participates in the game, please send your watch. We will give you a gemstone of equal value later based on the value of the watch."

As Chairman Tokiwa finished speaking, her secretary Sawada Chinami walked to the stage.

The secretary held a small basket in his hand, passed in front of the guests with a smile, took away the watches of the game participants one by one, and gave them a small triangular flag at the same time.

Suzuki Sonoko stood next to Jiang Xia and also received a small flag to join in the fun. She waved the flag casually and couldn't help but mutter: "A gemstone equivalent to a watch for each person? What a big deal..."
