"Okay, thank you for the hospitality. I'll go back first."
After lunch, Tangze said goodbye to Haiyuan with a smile and the others took Conan away.
This time, Tangze just took a vaccination in advance, so it was not a mistake to be nervous.
After all, he remembered that it was winter at that time, but now it was still early autumn, so the time was not right yet.
When winter really comes, Tangze should be careful.
After leaving Conan, who was feeling a little heavy, at the Mori Detective Agency, Karasawa drove directly home.
Because Ayako went home on Saturday and Sunday, there was no one at home.
After Karasawa returned home, he changed his clothes, took a shower, and then called Ayako.
"Are you busy?"
Listening to the slightly noisy background coming from the other end of the phone, Tangze didn't waste time and got straight to the point: "Will you come back for lunch? I'll be at home now and prepare lunch later."
"I was just about to call you." Ayako smiled and said, "Mom asked us to go back for lunch. She said that Uncle Jirokichi has returned to Neon. Let's have a meal together to cleanse our uncle."
"Then I'll pick you up soon after you finish cleaning up."
Tang Ze said that he knew: "In addition, the acquisition of online movie copyrights that I talked about last night will be negotiated as soon as possible."
"Hey, hey, I got it." Ayako felt a little helpless when she heard this, "You always come up with some over-the-top plans. I don't even know if these things are useful..."
"Well... I just did it as soon as I caught up." Tang Ze smiled brightly and knew that his behavior of banging his hammer here and there was a bit strange to others.
After all, other people are not time travellers, and they cannot know what things will be worth in the future.
And without strong financial strength, even if Tang Ze knew that this thing would make money in the future, he might not be able to withstand such a "waste" investment.
Even from an investment perspective, I'm afraid it's not very reasonable.
But after all, it is an additional accessory product to prevent the case from obtaining rewards, so it does not require so much.
After blow-drying his hair, Karasawa changed out of his bathrobe and put on casual clothes, then shaved himself, tidied up his hair that was a little scattered by the hair dryer, and then walked towards the garage.
Driving again was completely different from before. The low-speed driving of forty or fifty yards completely rendered this "fierce horse" useless.
However, Tangze didn't need to drive so fast. He just drove lazily and came downstairs to the company.
I didn't think about entering the company. After all, I had to accept the respectful looks and bows from the employees all the way and those uncomfortable rules. Tang Ze didn't like that.
But the whole society is like this, and Tangze can't let the company become an outlier, so he might as well try to avoid these hypocritical politenesses.
I ordered a cup of coffee from the coffee shop downstairs. I added milk and sugar to make it not bitter at all, more like milk tea. Then Tangze drank it slowly.
Paired with a small plate of exquisite matcha-flavored cookies, the light tea flavor and slight bitterness make the coffee even more delicious.
Of course, on the surface, it seems that Karasawa is just drinking coffee and passing the time, but in fact he is "reading".
After all, there was quite a lot of knowledge about the previous lottery, and some of it had been received but not yet transformed into something of his own. From time to time, Tang Ze would choose some knowledge to "review the past and learn the new."
Time always flies by when there is something to do. Just when Tangze was concentrating on "being in a daze", the knocking sound from the desktop brought his attention back to reality.
Looking up, Karasawa saw Ayako standing by the table with a smile on her face.
"Here? Let's go then." Karasawa put down the coffee, stood up and left the seat, while Ayako pinched a biscuit and ate it while following Karasawa out of the coffee shop.
Karasawa drove, and the two of them chatted casually and arrived at the Suzuki family's mansion.
After parking the car, the two entered the house and walked to the living room. They found that the Suzuki couple and Jiroyoshi Suzuki were sitting on the sofa chatting.
"You two are here." Suzuki Jirokichi saw the two of them and waved with a smile: "Come and sit down quickly, I want to tell you carefully about what I gained from going to the Bear Country this time."
"What did Jirokichi buy for his collection this time?" Ayako teased: "It's not another gem, right? If that's the case, Kaitou Kid might find it and return it in the future."
"Hahaha, with the famous "Kidd Nemesis" like Karasawa here, even if that little thief turns around, he will definitely come back in vain!"
Suzuki Jiroji smiled and said with a smile: "But we can deal with the thief next time. After all, the collection I brought back this time is not a gem, but a precious oil painting."
"Oil painting?" Tang Ze raised his eyebrows when he heard this, and became slightly interested: "Whose is it?"
After all, he also studied painting in his previous life. Although he was stuck at the A-level threshold without making any progress, it was an important part of his life after all, and he was still very interested in everyone's paintings.
"Vladimir Ivan's work "Mirror Lake"~"
Suzuki Jirokichi touched his beard and said with some pride: "This legend is the lover of the Queen of the Bear Country, Catherine I, and he is also a court painter. Several of the Queen's self-portraits were painted by him."
After hearing this, Karasawa searched his mind for knowledge about painting, and found that, as expected, this was also the new history after "Steins;Gate" changed the world line.
However, to say it is a legend is actually just a rumor. Maybe it was a smear campaign by the Queen's enemies at that time. However, this rumor has not been confirmed in the current history of the Bear Country.
But putting aside these rosy rumors, as a court painter and the Queen's exclusive portrait painter, his skills are definitely above A level.
At this point, Tangze's understanding is gone. After all, this is just one of many outstanding painters. Tangze's paintings also have a little historical knowledge, and are not specialized antique appreciation.
But he doesn't need it, because there is someone with detailed knowledge next to him.
Under Suzuki Jirokichi's explanation, Karasawa gradually understood why the other party was so proud of getting "Mirror Lake".
Although this rumor is not known to be true or false, historically this man named Vladimir Ivan took the initiative to leave the court after the rumors fermented, and has been obsessed with painting since then.
And this work called "Mirror Lake" was the last work he painted during his lifetime.
And there is a little bit of fantasy in it, which is why "Mirror Lake" is very precious.
