The unscientific detective in Conan

Late night in Tokyo.

The city lights outside the window were brightly lit, and the hustle and bustle could be heard faintly.

"Okay, Miss Su Fang, let's meet tomorrow. The location is my detective agency, at the 5th-chome of Yoneka Town."

After Fujino hung up the phone, he let out a long sigh of relief.

In this case, we can talk about the entrusted endorsement tomorrow.

Although we still don’t know what the other party’s character is like, judging from Okino Yoko’s introduction, the other party should be a well-known philanthropist.

This kind of philanthropist usually has a very high reputation in society.

"But then again, why do I feel like this name is a bit familiar?"

Fujino put the phone away and murmured in confusion.

In this world, the people who can leave an impression on him are usually the characters involved in the plot of the original work.

Either the murderer or the victim.

But he couldn't remember it for a while.

The plot of Conan is really too long. The TV version has more than a thousand episodes, and it is impossible for him to remember every episode.

In addition to some classic cases, there are also key plots. Without some key hints, he would not be able to recall which paragraph this [Su Fang Hongzi] corresponds to...

"My mind is a little confused..."

Fujino pinched his forehead and felt his head hurt a little.

After thinking for a moment, he decided to search the Internet for more information about Su Fanghongzi.

Not just to see if I can find some key clues that recall the plot.

Also, it was to test the numbers and see the reputation of the guy who was about to entrust him with being the spokesperson.

If it turns out that the reputation is not very good, he can just reject it tomorrow on the grounds that he doesn't have time.

…………

"Su Fang Hongzi, the Red Society..."

Fujino leaned against the head of the bed, put his notebook on his lap, and tapped his fingers rapidly on the keyboard.

Soon, he found information about Su Fanghongzi.

Although the search technology in this era is not very good, searching for such celebrities is still relatively simple.

Judging from the search results, Su Fanghongzi is indeed a big star as Okino Yoko said.

In the early years, she was called "The Canary of the East" because of her bright singing voice. She was a representative of an era in the neon music scene.

But just fifteen years ago, she suddenly retired from the music scene and established a management company called "Red Club".

Specializing in commercial charity performances and various means, we are committed to helping children who have lost their families due to traffic accidents...

As for the dirty information Ikezawa Yuko said, that is another matter.

Almost twenty years ago, Su Fanghongzi's female assistant accidentally hit and killed a woman while driving her car, and committed suicide after a hit-and-run accident.

The [Hongzhihui] was established shortly after the death of this female assistant. Therefore, the public and the news media often used this incident as a reason to criticize Su Fanghongzi.

However, that information is still somewhat controversial, and even if it is reported, there is no actual evidence.

Fujino looked around and felt that Su Fanghongzi had a good reputation and might be able to endorse her.

…………

In the early morning, the sky was dim and bright.

Just overnight, there was falling snow outside.

Everything in the city is covered with silver and clouds, just like a getting married bride.

Winter is coming, spring is coming, autumn is coming and summer is coming, the world of science and technology has ushered in countless winters.

Fujino has long been used to it.

He stood in front of the window of the detective agency, wearing the same old decent suit that he had taken out from the system. He looked out the window at the falling snowflakes and took a sip of the hot tea in the cup in his hand, feeling warm.

"Boom!"

At this time, there was a knock on the door.

"come yet?"

Fujino was not surprised to hear this.

He placed the tea cup by the window, turned around, passed the living room, and opened the door.

What appeared in front of him was an old man with an old face and gray hair, wearing a black dress and a red shawl.

Behind her, there was a middle-aged woman wearing a gray suit, short black hair, and glasses who looked a little older.

Fujino invited the two of them into the living room, sat down in front of the sofa, and started talking.

After some understanding, Fujino learned that the white-haired old man was Su Fang Hongzi.

Following her was her assistant, Inada Kazuyo.

The purpose of their coming here this time is not for anything else, but to discuss matters related to the endorsement of the charity gala...

Su Fanghongzi sat on the sofa opposite, her words were full of sincerity: "We at the Red Society really hope that Detective Fujino can endorse this charity gala. After all, no one is more suitable than 'Light of Hope' to serve those who have lost their lives." The children of the family bring hope.”

"A ray of hope?"

Fujino frowned slightly when he heard this.

He was a bit dissatisfied with Sister Li, why he got another title for no reason.

Ray of Hope...it feels a bit middle-of-the-road.

"Light of Hope is the theme of our charity gala next week."

The female assistant on the side interjected: "Because the theme of this party is the light of hope, we believe that there is no one more worthy of this title than the heroic detective who just prevented an air crash."

"It is precisely because of this that we desperately need Detective Fujino's endorsement."

Su Fang Hongzi didn't sell it, and directly talked about the key points: "If Detective Fujino is willing to endorse this charity gala, our Red Club will pay 5 million yen as your endorsement fee."

Fujino couldn't help but froze when he heard this.

It was five million yen as soon as I opened the mouth... This old lady was very bold and wrong. She was as good as anyone in the Suzuki family.

Are all those who do charity so rich?

Fujino was a little confused...but thinking about it, it was true.

Now, it can be said that he has become famous.

In the previous high-altitude murder case, in order to cover up the scandal of its co-pilot transporting drugs, a certain Japanese airline used public relations methods to shift all the attention of this incident to the famous detective who saved the lives of everyone on the plane.

As the famous detective, he has now become almost a household name.

Even though these days have passed, news about him is still being broadcast on TV...

In other words, the small amount of money spent to hire him is actually more than the benefits obtained.

Fujino thought for a moment, and then he readily agreed to the endorsement: "Since Miss Su Fang is so sincere, I will accept this endorsement..."

"However, I don't have any contracts here to accept endorsement commissions. If I am commissioned this time, I cannot issue a contract for the time being. However, I will definitely participate in the charity gala. If there is any work that requires my cooperation, you can contact me by phone."

"thank you very much."

Su Fanghongzi stood up after hearing this and bowed to Fujino: "For the deposit, I will ask my assistant to put it on your card tomorrow..."

"No need for tomorrow."

Fujino interrupted Su Fanghongzi and said with a smile: "We support mobile payment here."

"Does mobile payment support?"

Su Fanghongzi couldn't help being stunned when she saw this, and then waved her hand: "Hedai."

"yes."

The female assistant responded and neatly took out a bank card from the bag she was holding on her chest.

Ding!

1 million yen arrived!

[Current system balance: 6.68 million yen]

After paying the deposit, Su Fanghongzi suddenly asked Fujino: "By the way, Detective Fujino, are you free the day after tomorrow?"

"the day after tomorrow……"

Fujino was stunned when he heard this.

Ask him what he has time to do?

An old lady in her sixties...

He's not that harsh.

Fujino thought for a while, but did not give an answer. Instead, he asked: "Are there any other related preparations?"

"Is such that……"

Su Fanghongzi explained: "Many of the children supported by our Red Society are fans of Detective Fujino. If you have time the day after tomorrow, you can take the time to visit the orphanage. Those children should be very happy."

The female assistant next to him continued: "At that time, we will also arrange for Japanese TV stations to shoot and report at the same time."

"I see."

Fujino suddenly realized after hearing this, "I should be free the day after tomorrow, just let me know then."

…………

The car leaving the detective agency.

Inada and Dai drove the car, looking a little worried: "Teacher, is there really no problem with the commission fee of five million yen? It's too much..."

"It doesn't matter."

Su Fanghongzi's eyes flashed with meaning: "I am sure to keep the remaining four million yen in three days."

Inada Kazuyo still had doubts: "But..."

"There's nothing wrong with it. I can see that although this kind of person looks snobbish on the surface, he is actually very gentle."

Su Fanghongzi leaned back on the chair, as if she was confident of winning: "What's more, even if the five million is really wasted, the donations we can get will be much more than this... Taking advantage of this With one chance, we can also achieve a win-win situation.”

…………

At noon, the snow stopped.

After seeing off the two clients, Fujino had nothing to do for the time being, so he temporarily took over Miyano Akemi's job and asked her to take Haibara Ai shopping.

Soon, Fujino received new orders.

It's a young couple.

After confirming the order content, Fujino quickly mixed the drinks and handed them to the young couple: "Snow King Couple's secret set, please take it."

"OK……"

The couple took the plastic bag containing the drinks, paused, and asked curiously: "Um, is Fujino-chan Detective Fujino?"

"You know me?"

Fujino raised his eyes and glanced at the two of them unexpectedly.

"Both of us are your detective fans!"

The two of them looked a little excited, and the boy among them said, "I just saw the news on TV yesterday that you saved a plane."

"Well, could you please sign both of our cups?"

The girl looked a little embarrassed and spoke.

"It turned out to be a detective fan..."

Fujino suddenly realized what he said, and then took out a black graffiti pen from his pocket, signed his signature on the cup skillfully, and then handed it to the two of them: "That should be enough, right?"

"Uh-huh!"

The two nodded with satisfaction, and said excitedly before leaving: "It's rare to be able to drink the drinks prepared by a famous detective..."

"It's really memorable."

"My current popularity is a bit ridiculous..."

Fujino watched the two people leaving the store and couldn't help but chuckle.

Unconsciously, more and more people came to him for autographs.

What should I do if I feel a little uncomfortable?

But then, Fujino started thinking again and felt that he had discovered a new market.

If we were to release a [Snow King Ice Castle Detective Fujino Limited Co-branded] drink cup, change the flavor, and sign a few names, then the price of a drink should skyrocket by several hundred yen...
