Corpse collector in Conan

Chapter 1211 1210 [Thank you for the doctor sent by the organization] Please vote for me (

President Ichikawa continued what the doctor said: "So I will step down soon, but before that, I need to determine my successor."

Suzuki Sonoko thought of the content of President Ichikawa's commission just now, and then thought of the two daughters in his family. Her expression became a little strange for a moment: "So you asked Jiang Xia to observe them to see who is more suitable to be the heir?"

"Oh, I didn't say I wanted to choose from among them." Although President Ichikawa looked down on these brats, thinking about the Suzuki Consortium behind Suzuki Sonoko, he reluctantly said a few more words, "If they dare to betray It’s my business, even if it’s my own flesh and blood, I won’t give them a penny.”

Suzuki Sonoko has never been interested in money matters. When she heard this topic, she suddenly felt that things had become boring. She just wanted to finish tonight's banquet and fast forward to going to the beach tomorrow.

When Conan heard what President Ichikawa said, he couldn't help but argue: "That's what I say, but according to the inheritance law, they can still inherit a lot of retained inheritance - the statement that they can't get a penny is actually not true. Inaccurate."

Suzuki Sonoko yawned and looked at Conan: How come this child knows so much about inheritance? His parents...

President Ichikawa didn't pay attention to this. He just laughed mysteriously:

"That's true. But if they did something illegal and scandalous, it would be a different matter - that's why I asked the detective. To be honest, I always felt that something big was going to happen soon."

"..." Another Riddler.

However, Jiang Xia has seen many similar guys, so he doesn't have much dislike for the Riddler. After all, according to his experience, this kind of people can always bring him gains in all aspects.

He then cooperated and became serious, and asked in a mysterious and low voice: "Big deal? What do you mean?"

As expected, the Riddler stopped talking.

Ichikawa Xiong showed a mysterious smile, changed the topic, and looked at Jiang Xia: "Since you came with the Suzuki girl, don't show your identity as a detective today, keep a low profile and observe from the side - I hope you can dig out What you get is worthy of the reward I gave you.”

After taking over the task, Jiang Xia and others did not stay in the study for too long and quickly followed the housekeeper to the venue.

Entering the corridor, Suzuki Sonoko breathed in the fresh air of the seaside city, stretched out, and took advantage of the fact that the old housekeeper was a bit deaf, and whispered to the classmates: "It's really hard to talk to this kind of person - so what's the big deal? ?”

"I don't know." Mao Lilan looked at the lively banquet scene in the courtyard through the window, sighed, and prayed sincerely, "I hope nothing happens tonight."

When Jiang Xia heard this, he raised his hand and touched Conan's head.

Conan looked up at him in confusion: "...huh?"

The four people followed the housekeeper to the banquet venue with different thoughts.

People of various identities walked back and forth in the venue. The housekeeper's eyes quickly settled on a woman and introduced to Jiang Xia in a low voice: "That is Miss Ichikawa Ichijue, Mr. Ichikawa's eldest daughter. She is currently running a gallery."

Just as he was saying this, Ichikawa looked towards them as if he had clairaudience.

Her gaze paused for a moment, as if she recognized the guest here, and she quickly approached with a wine glass in hand.

"Jiangxia? I often hear Sonoko mention you." Ichikawa showed a friendly smile to them.

Although she was born in Mie Prefecture, the gallery under her name was opened in Tokyo, and she usually had contact with Tokyo's celebrities. Ichikawa thought of something and quickly took out a few tickets enthusiastically: "My gallery will hold an art exhibition soon. If you are interested..."

While they were chatting, a sharp voice suddenly broke in from beside them:

"Sister? I didn't expect you to come to the banquet."

Ichikawa was startled and quickly recognized who the owner of the voice was.

The polite and gentle expression on her face suddenly disappeared and turned into a smile with a hint of coldness: "Of course I will come - how can I, as the heir to the Ichikawa family, be absent from such an occasion?"

"Heir?" Mizue Ichikawa, the second daughter of President Ichikawa, laughed when she heard this, "But a woman's intuition tells me that dad has no such plan."

She looked at her sister's slightly raised chin and struck: "Weren't you very stubborn when you had a fight with your father and shouted that you wanted to run away from home? What, now you are back for the inheritance?"

Suzuki Sonoko and Mao Lilan accidentally overheard this kind of family matter and stood nearby, feeling a little embarrassed.

Jiang Xia looked at Sister Ichikawa for a while, then at Sister Ichikawa again, took a sip of the juice in the goblet, and watched silently.

Ichikawa caught a glimpse of their expressions from the corner of his eye, and couldn't help getting angry. He also started to expose his sister's shortcomings: "Isn't it because you didn't want to be nagged by him that you married in a hurry and fled the house? Alas, it's a pity to hear that you and your brother-in-law The relationship is very bad - is it because after getting married, he found out that you were not as rich as he thought, and did he regret marrying you, a shrew?"

Ichikawa Mizue's face turned red when she heard her mention this: "You, you... you have time to take care of other people's housework, why not take care of your gallery - I heard that you were recently sued for selling counterfeit goods, tsk tsk , I am already so poor, no wonder I left my face and came back today to admit my mistake."

"snort!"

In terms of disgrace, both men unfortunately died together.

Seemingly realizing that if they continued to quarrel like this, their oldest dark history would be ruthlessly uncovered, the two sisters finally had no choice but to snort indignantly, each walking in a different direction, out of sight and out of sight, and broke up unhappy.

Jiang Xia originally wanted to continue staring at people, but at this moment, he suddenly felt something and turned his head to look at the other side of the venue.

——The taciturn "Doctor Okano" whom I met before also came to the banquet at some point and was having dinner.

There was a circle of people with similar temperaments around him. Those people were obviously not familiar with the other guests in the banquet hall, and they were chatting in low voices to themselves.

The old housekeeper keenly noticed the direction of Jiang Xia's gaze and introduced thoughtfully:

"Those are Dr. Okano's colleagues - this year's doctor union meeting happened to be held in Mie Prefecture and just finished at noon. President Ichikawa heard that a team of doctors was coming, so he spent a huge sum of money to invite them to come for consultation."

Jiang Xia looked at the group of doctors, his eyes paused on a few of them, and he felt a little moved.

Mao Lilan quickly noticed his eager eyes.

She remembered Jiang Xia's habit of "liking to go around looking for people to exchange business cards", and guiltily looked at the window of the villa where President Ichikawa was, then came closer and reminded in a low voice: "Well, President Ichikawa seemed to have said just now that you can't show off your identity as a detective today. , keep a low profile and observe from the side.”
