Hui Yuan Ai grabbed the hem of Jiang Xia's clothes, looked at the retreating naughty children, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief:
Although she didn't know whether the "time machine" was real or fake, she was not at all curious about her "ten years from now" - because she had seen it many times.
On the contrary, if "Shirley"'s appearance is photographed by that machine, things will undoubtedly become very troublesome. Who knows whether the data remaining in the machine will be unlucky enough to be seen by the organization one day.
Haiyuan Ai, who has been in the organization since he was a child, knows very well that he must not underestimate the demons lurking in the darkness. Their tentacles often reach much longer than many people think, and they always appear inadvertently.
Appeared suddenly.
…
In the exhibition hall on the second floor, a group of people were having fun.
At this time, secretary Sawada Chienami's cell phone suddenly vibrated.
She walked to the side and answered the phone.
Then he greeted several guests with a smile: "Please follow me to the banquet hall on the 75th floor - the chairman is waiting for you there."
The span from the second floor to the 75th floor was huge, and they did not take the escalator inside the building.
Instead, under the guidance of Sawada Chinami, we found the sightseeing elevator.
This kind of elevator is installed on the outside of the building. Except for the elevator door, the other three sides are made of transparent material, making it easy to enjoy the scenery.
"It's so beautiful." Mao Lilan happily walked to the window and looked outside against the transparent curtain wall. As the elevator rose, it quickly retreated to the ground below, giving people the feeling of flying. "This elevator can keep running.
To the 75th floor?”
"Yes." Sawada Chinami nodded, "This is a VIP elevator. You can choose the floor you want to go to. However, if you want to take it from outside, you can enter from the concert hall on the 66th floor."
Jiang Xia listened and looked across.
——The elevator is facing a building nearly 100 meters away. Compared to this elevator, it is a good sniping point.
Just as I was thinking about it, Ayumi looked at the increasingly majestic scenery beside her, and couldn't help but stare at stars: "It's so beautiful, it's like walking towards heaven step by step!"
Jiang Xia: "..." This is probably a little prophet.
…
Not long after, the elevator rose to the 75th floor.
The door slid open to both sides silently, and the vast banquet hall appeared in front of everyone.
The decoration here is exquisite, and the huge floor-to-ceiling windows make the room very bright. However, because the Tokiwa Foundation is preparing for the opening ceremony of the building, the hall is currently a bit chaotic. Decorative materials are piled everywhere on the floor. There are staff walking back and forth, discussing in low voices.
plan.
In front of the most conspicuous stage, several celebrities were standing there chatting. At a glance, they were all talents from all walks of life. Chairman Tokiwa was also among them.
Sawada Chinami walked over with the guests.
Before a group of people approached, the people who were talking had already noticed their movements.
Mio Tokiwa glanced here and walked over with a smile: "Senior Mori, long time no see."
"Haha, long time no see." Mouri Kogoro glanced at the group of people behind him who were rushing to the building. He was a little embarrassed. He added in a low voice: "I originally wanted to come here by myself, but there are too many children at home.
Come with me... Well, this is my daughter, these two are her classmates, these are..."
He bit the bullet and introduced them one by one.
No matter what Tokiwa Mio was thinking in her heart, she always maintained an elegant smile on her face.
After Mouri Kogoro finished speaking, the shrewd chairman covered his lips and smiled, and also introduced several people around him to the guests.
She first motioned to the person closest to her. He was an elderly man, wearing a kimono. He was not tall but had a majestic air: "This is my painting teacher, a famous Japanese painting artist - Kisaragi Minesui."
.”
"Oh! I've heard of it." Suzuki Sonoko was quite familiar with this. "He must be the great painter who is famous for his paintings of Mount Fuji."
"That's right." As soon as she finished speaking, a man with a beer belly came over drunkenly. The man smelled of alcohol and looked at her with a flattering smile and said, "The daughter of the Suzuki Consortium is also here. I'm glad to meet you!"
Suzuki Sonoko lowered her head and looked at the man's hand grabbing her palm: "..."
Although at this time, it seems that I should shake hands with others politely.
But when I saw the fat face, the eyes that were squinting with a smile, and especially the choking smell of alcohol...
By the time Suzuki Sonoko came to her senses, she had instinctively teleported away, moved a step, and hid behind Jiang Xia.
The middle-aged man grabbed Jiang Xia's hand excitedly, and finally only held Jiang Xia's hand.
Jiang Xia was startled, looked away from the floor-to-ceiling window, and looked down at him.
After hesitating for a moment, he followed what the man just said: "...Nice to meet you?"
"Huh!" Damu Yansong shook him off in disgust. He glared at Jiang Xia, the obstacle, and suddenly touched his chin in confusion, "I seem to have seen you somewhere. Have you been to our house?"
"Huh?" Jiang Xia looked at him carefully, but had no impression of this face, "No."
Tokiwa Mio felt the embarrassment in the air.
She interrupted the conversation between the two with a smile, and introduced the drunk man to Jiang Xia and the others: "This is the councilman of Nishitama City, Mr. Oki Iwamatsu - this building can only be built thanks to his help."
Hearing this name, Jiang Xia's eyes quickly flashed with realization: "!"
...Speaking of "Damu", it seems that he did have a client named "Damu".
The wife has a border collie at home. It is a beautiful and clever dog. When it gets lost, it will go directly to the door of the detective office and squat down. Every time Jiang Xia opens the door, he can pick it up, which is very worry-free.
Representative Omu was not interested in Jiang Xia and did not notice the change in his demeanor.
Tokiwa Mio has also turned her attention to the next person to introduce.
She raised her hand to signal the person behind her: "When it comes to 'building a building', this gentleman also played a major role..."
This time, before Tokiwa Mio could finish speaking, the tall man had already taken the initiative to step forward.
With his eagle-like eyes, he stared at Jiang Xia and introduced himself: "I am the designer of this building, Hidehiko Kazama."
After a pause, Kazama Hidehiko glanced at Representative Ohgi, then at Jiang Xia, and said with a smile: "I seem to have seen you too - you are the detective who was accused by Emperor Moritani of beating someone.
"It's just that there is no evidence for the 'beating' incident, and no media is willing to report it. In addition, he is an anti-social and dangerous criminal, and no one takes it seriously. And Teiji Moritani himself...he heard that if he is prosecuted,
I might need to go to court to confront you in the future, so I didn’t insist anymore. In the end, the matter was settled."
After recalling the past, Hidehiko Kazama suddenly said with unclear meaning: "I am the disciple of Moritani Teiji."
