"That's true...but I thought the code I thought of would be very challenging. I heard you said the solution is very simple, and I was a little shocked..."
While talking, the two of them walked out of the room, and after Sera Masumi locked the door, they walked along the corridor to the elevator.
Until he took the elevator to the first floor, Sera Masumi didn't mention the answer to the mystery of 'SIS' again.
This also allowed Chi Feichi to determine the reason why Shiliang and his daughter were testing him.
If Sera and his daughter were testing him because they suspected that he was connected to the organization, or had already discovered that he was connected to the organization, then when he revealed the answer to the mystery of 'SIS', Sera and his daughter would definitely become nervous.
Later, he also took the initiative to mention that "SIS is the British Secret Intelligence Service."
If Mary really thought he was connected to the organization, she would have thought at that time - why did he suddenly mention this? Does he doubt us? Is this testing us? Hasn't the organization already arranged for people to enter the hotel?
Masumi Sera would also have the same worries and would try her best to prevent him from thinking of the 'British Secret Intelligence Service'. When he asked if 'sis refers to sister or the British Secret Intelligence Service', Masumi Sera would probably laugh and say "It's just the abbreviation of sister," he took the opportunity to deny that the answer was related to MI6, and subconsciously avoided mentioning words like 007 and SIS.
If he puts too much pressure on Sera and his daughter, Mary may even attack him directly, such as knocking him out directly to prevent him from spreading the news to his accomplices.
Of course, after doing this, the identity of Sera and her daughter will be exposed. At that time, the two of them can only run away immediately, so this is only the last resort. Unless it is found that the organization's hands have touched the area around the hotel, Mary should Won't do this.
In short, when he mentioned SIS, the reaction of Sera and his daughter was not excessive, and Sera Mari was able to trust Sera Masumi to follow him downstairs, which shows that the mother and daughter most likely did not discover that he was connected to the organization.
This time Sera and his daughter tested him, probably just to confirm whether he was an outsider or someone's helper.
To put it simply, it is to confirm its ‘ingredients’.
And this time he suddenly mentioned SIS to Sera Masumi. In addition to being a test, it was also a warning: Don’t test him at every turn, be careful to let your secrets in!
Although this warning cannot be said directly, as long as Sera Marie feels that he is an outsider and feels that approaching him will easily expose the secrets she wants to hide, she will probably take the initiative to keep her distance from him.
He really didn't want Sera and his daughter to invite him to the hotel to undergo any tests again. That would not only be troublesome, but also dangerous for everyone.
If Shiliang's mother and daughter were exposed too much and he couldn't pretend to be stupid, should he report it or not?
If he didn't report it, he would have to bear a lot of risk. If he reported it, he might get caught in the center of the red-black short-circuit battle and push himself to the forefront, which would be very difficult for him.
…
Half an hour later, Ikefeichi and Sera Masumi arrived at the Mizutoro Japanese Restaurant in Cupido Town.
Haneda Hideyoshi received Sera Masumi's call and immediately arrived at the front desk. When he saw Sera Masumi and Chi Feichi standing at the front desk, a gentle smile immediately appeared on his face and he walked forward to greet him, "Masumi, Mr. Chi, you are here!"
Sera Masumi turned around and saw Haneda Hideyoshi, her eyes lit up instantly, and she responded with a smile, "Brother Ji, long time no see. You look very handsome in your outfit today!"
Haneda Hideyoshi was wearing a gray casual suit. The style was simple, but the woolen fabric was fine and crisp. He wore a flat dark blue shirt underneath. The beard on his face was clean, his hair seemed to have been taken care of, and he had a round shape on the bridge of his nose. He wears glasses and looks like a noble man from a certain family.
Hearing Sera Masumi's compliment, Haneda Hideyoshi suddenly felt a little embarrassed. He raised his hand and scratched the back of his head, which dissipated a lot of the aristocratic aura just now. "I made a reservation at a Japanese restaurant today. I originally wanted to dress appropriately." I wanted to be more formal, but I was worried that dressing too formally would lead to a serious lunch atmosphere, so I found this set of clothes from the cabinet that I had never worn before... Wouldn’t this look weird?”
"That's not weird!" Shiliang Zhenchun responded with a smile, then turned to Chi Feichi to express his stance, "right, Brother Feichi?"
Chi Feichi nodded calmly, looked at Haneda Hideyoshi and said, "This is not the first time we have met. Even if Mr. Haneda is wearing regular clothes and not shaving, I will not think you are dressed strangely."
"Why do I feel like you are complaining about me?" Haneda Hideyoshi asked, and the smile on his face became more magnanimous. "Have those children told you? The last time I met them, because at that time I stayed at home and didn’t think about going out, so I wore random matching home clothes, didn’t shave, and didn’t tidy up my hair properly, which would probably leave a slovenly impression on the children..."
"Are the children you are talking about the Young Detective Team?" Masaki Sera asked curiously.
"Yes, that's them!" Haneda Hideyoshi smiled and nodded, turned around and led the way, "Anyway, let's go to the private room I reserved first. I have reserved the special dishes of this store. Stone cuisine is very famous, we can chat and slowly taste the delicious food prepared by this restaurant later!”
"Can we have a big dinner today? It's really exciting!" Masumi Sera smiled and livened up the atmosphere, "But from what Ji Ge said, this restaurant should be a famous kaiseki restaurant in Cupido Town, right? It's not Chi Ge. , you have lived in Cupido Town for a long time, right? Have you been to this house before?"
She finally figured out that Brother Ji and Brother Feichi were not very familiar with each other. It was just like Ji Ge said - they had only met once or twice, and they had common topics in playing chess.
Precisely because they were not very familiar with each other, Ji Ge made an appointment at this more formal Japanese restaurant and dressed up more formally to show that he valued this meeting.
Since these two people are not familiar with each other, she will have to work harder.
Brother Fei Chi himself is the kind of person who is not enthusiastic and cheerful. When facing people he is not familiar with, he will occasionally show a sense of distance. If she doesn't liven up the atmosphere, she is worried that the two people will maintain a polite but polite attitude.
Alienated relationship style...
She doesn't like the weird atmosphere brought about by that kind of relationship!
"I've been here several times before," Chi Feichi answered Shiliang Zhenshun's question, "I usually eat here with my friends."
"I see..." Sera Masumi smiled and turned the topic to Haneda Hideyoshi, "Brother Ji, what about you? Have you often come to this store before?"
"I don't come here very often," Haneda Hideyoshi said with a smile, "I basically come here just to have dinner with my friends."
"Did you never meet each other once when you came here before?" Sera asked with curiosity on her face.
"I don't remember that," Haneda Hideyoshi thought for a moment, then he reached the door of the private room, pushed the door open and entered the room, explaining in a gentle tone, "We don't come here often, the chance of meeting each other is very low, and the dining area here is divided into
There are Japanese-style rooms, so even if we happen to have dinner with friends here on a certain day, we may not be able to see each other."
