Conan’s Corpse Picker

That's right, after a battle of wits and courage. In the end, Vodka failed to successfully return to work as he hoped.

When he euphemistically proposed that he would continue to go on missions with Brother Gin, Vodka just received a new mission - Gin asked him to keep an eye on Belmod more when he had time, because "she has been acting strange recently."

"Me? I'm going to keep an eye on that mysterious and cruel person?"

After a moment of silence, considering that this was not a mandatory task, but just a casual instruction from Brother Gin, Vodka silently put it aside and decided to do other tasks that Gin had assigned him before.

"I think I'd better go on a business trip first."

After looking through the mission details, Vodka sighed.

He didn't like to go on business trips in the past because he was worried that he would accidentally fall into some nasty traps on the way back and forth.

In addition, when he was in Tokyo, even if something happened, he could still call his elder brother to make a fortune. But if you go to Osaka, which is so far away, by the time Brother Gin realizes something is wrong, his vodka body may have already been on the news and become the achievement of that hateful colleague.

But now...

"Bellmode has been acting abnormally recently? Could it be that it's not abnormal? The matter of Itakura Taku also has something to do with her, and since Uzo has already targeted Itakura Taku, there is a high probability that she will also be targeted. If I continue to target Belmod, wouldn't I be caught between her and Uzo, and become a piece of bad luck that can be moved wherever needed? "

Of course this terrible work must be put off as long as possible.

"If I can't afford to offend him, why can't I afford to hide?"

Thinking of this, Vodka glanced at the ticket to Osaka in his hand, and a strange smile appeared on the corner of his lips: "Let Uzo and Belmode play freely. As for me, Vodka has a business trip, so I won't accompany you." .

"It just so happens that Ms. Yoko is having an event there, so I can take advantage of the chaos to catch up with stars, hehe. It's a great time without Uzo's interruption. This time I want to see my lovely idol!"

Not long after, the train pulled into the station.

Vodka carried his briefcase and stepped into the car in a wonderful mood.

A second later, he turned back and walked out again.

Vodka: "..."

Vodka: “…”

Finding a chance to avoid danger and being able to meet your idol along the way should have been double happiness, but now... why is there Uzo in the car! !

Even apart from him, his most professional team was all here.

"Is the speculation wrong? It was not Belmod who was targeted by Uzo, but the innocent me?"

Vodka's pupils trembled slightly, and he instinctively wanted to turn around and leave the station.

However, when I bought the ticket, I had already reported that I wanted to go to Osaka. If I ask for a temporary leave now, the reason is just "Jiang Xia is on the bus"...

"No, at this critical time of my return, I cannot make such an unreasonable move." Vodka took a deep breath and tried to make himself give up this behavior that was necessary but seemed very childish:

"And I don't know what kind of person my temporary partner is in Osaka. If he was let off by me and thought I looked down on him, he would hold a grudge and find an opportunity to shoot me in the future and then say it was the enemy who shot him... …Isn’t that the end?”

Thinking of the scene of being surrounded by enemies, Vodka shuddered silently: "I am a mature member of the organization and cannot act willfully... I'd better take another bus or drive there myself."

…

Not long after, the train started and headed for Osaka.

Jiang Xia suddenly sighed.

Suzuki Sonoko turned to look at him and asked doubtfully: "What's wrong?"

Jiang Xia looked away from the window: "It's nothing, I just feel like there's no one I know in the car, so it's a little boring."

Suzuki Sonoko laughed and took out a pair of cards from nowhere: "Don't worry, I've been prepared!"

As soon as she finished speaking, she looked at Conan's speechless face and realized something belatedly.

Suzuki Sonoko: "..."

etc.

...Why is she playing cards with Xiaolan and Jiang Xia! !

…

The train kept chugging along and finally arrived in Osaka.

Looking at the station in front of her, Suzuki Sonoko breathed a weak sigh of relief: Finally... the never-ending losing game is finally over!

Although it can be felt that Jiang Xia and Xiaolan did not kill her, and occasionally tried to give in, but unfortunately, the final result did not seem to be much different from not giving in.

"I won't bring pokers with me on my next trip." Suzuki Sonoko clenched her fists and muttered secretly in her heart, "Or bring a few more acquaintances, the darker the better, so at least I won't be at the bottom!"

In any case, although the process was not satisfactory, at least it achieved the purpose of passing time.

After getting out of the car, Suzuki Sonoko walked a few languid steps before regaining her energy.

She lowered her head and looked at her phone: "The Hatakeyama family's manor is about 10 kilometers away from here. If we go there now, we should be able to catch up with the wedding ceremony!"

The three high school students put their luggage in the hotel, took a taxi and rushed towards their destination.

…

In a manor on the outskirts of the mountain.

The newlyweds stood together happily and whispered something, while beside them, countless staff were busy with them.

One of the employees wiped the sweat from his forehead, adjusted the hat on his head, and quietly looked at the groom not far away - the current head of the Hatakeyama Consortium, Yu Hatakeyama.

The head of the consortium looks very young, and indeed he is. He is only 28 years old and has just taken office.

Half a year ago, the Hatakeyama Group was still in the hands of Hatakeyama Yu's father. Later, his father died unexpectedly and the group was handed over to him.

"I really don't want to deal with these young people who don't know how high the sky is and how deep the earth is..." Calvados confirmed the target, buried his head and continued to work, thinking to himself, "This will make me want to make a hole in his head."

The Hatakeyama Group has always cooperated with the organization, but after the new head took office, he noticed the gray part of his own group and was determined to eradicate them in one fell swoop.

This thankless task, no one in the Hatakeyama Group would do it in the past. Moreover, cooperation with the organization is certainly not so legal, but it can bring huge benefits... However, the groom in front of him is very idealistic, regards huge profits as nothing, and only wants to stick to his ideals.

In Calvados' words, this rich second generation lacks a beating from society.

And now, he comes to deliver a beating for the organization.

- Beat this guy first, if it doesn't work, then help the Hatakeyama family change a master.

This kind of task was actually not in Calvados's area of ​​expertise.

But after considering various factors, he finally volunteered to take it.
