Conan: The Magician of the End of the Century

Chapter 208 The Covenant
"When I first saw you, you gave me the impression that you were a lifeless doll, but today you have obviously regained the courage and hope you once lost." Ishino looked at Hong with approval. The tree said, "So I decided to grant your wish."

"Now that you have made your decision, don't fall asleep when you return to Boston tonight. I will come to your house and steal you away." After saying that, Ishino smiled confidently at the other party.

"Why do I feel like you don't look like a superhero now, but like an arrogant super thief?" Hiroki, who was amused by Ishino's perverse words and expression, soon became worried, "But my room is always under camera 24 Hours of monitoring, it’s not easy to slip away from there, is it really okay, will it cause you trouble?”

Seeing Hiroki's brows frown slightly, Ishino patted his shoulder, then pretended to be mysterious and leaned into his ear and whispered: "Let me tell you something secretly, in fact, I am the legendary Kaitou Kidd His brother is the man who will inherit the title of 'Magician of the End of the Century', stealing someone in front of the camera is just a piece of cake."

"Hahaha, then please make sure to steal me away without me noticing, Mr. Great Magician!" Hiroki couldn't help laughing when he heard Ishino teasing himself with such a joke.

Although I don't know what method Ishino will use to rescue him from that devil's den, but the previous apprehension and worry have disappeared. At this moment, all he has in his heart is the firm belief that the other party can realize his wish.

Seeing that Hiroki didn't seem to believe what he said, Ishino didn't take it seriously, thinking that the other party would know the truth one day anyway, so he stretched out his little finger and bent it into a hook shape: "No problem, then it's settled Come on, see you tonight."

Seeing this, Hiroki decisively stretched out the same fingers to hook the other person's extended little finger and said with a smile: "Okay, I will stay up tonight waiting for you. Don't miss your appointment!"

After the two reached an agreement, Hiroki looked at the other person curiously and asked, "But aren't you really curious about why I am so eager to escape from here?"

"Based on my observations and understanding of you and Mr. Thomas, I can roughly guess some reasons. However, time is urgent right now. If you want to tell me more, you should wait until I steal you out."

With his eyesight far beyond that of ordinary people, he could see from a distance that the bodyguard had already bought something and was rushing back. Ishino smiled and touched Hiroki's head and said: "But before that, we have to complete our last agreement. "

"The last agreement?" Hearing the other party's sudden words, Hiroki couldn't remember what other agreements he had made with the other party for a while, but after a while, he knew what the other party was referring to...

In the evening, everyone who had returned from the amusement park arrived at the famous No. 11 Madison Park restaurant in New York. Thomas Schindler, who had been waiting there for a long time, stood up with a smile and greeted everyone: "Miss Natsumi, Mr. Ishino, you are finally here. Come on, please sit down."

"Mr. Thomas, you are too polite. Without your help, we wouldn't be able to book dinner at this restaurant. I'm sorry to trouble you." Natsumi responded with a smile.

"What did you say? I didn't have time to thank Miss Xiao Ai for saving her. Today's meal is my thank you gift. I also wish our cooperation project a complete success." Thomas waved his hand and explained.

After a few polite words, the group of guests took their seats. At this time, Thomas finally recognized Chrissy Wynyard, who was sitting next to Natsumi, and asked with some surprise: "Could it be that you are the one who has not been here for a long time?" Miss Chris who announced her retirement before? I didn’t expect you to know Miss Natsumi. I’m so disrespectful.” “Mr. Thomas, you are so polite. Natsumi is my good sister, and I specially invited them to travel to the United States this time.” Bell. Mo Deluo responded gracefully, and then lowered his voice and reminded, "But this time I avoided reporters and returned to China quietly. I hope you can keep it a secret for me."

"I understand, I understand. For a big star like you, the rare vacation should not be disturbed by reporters." Thomas nodded with a smile and said, "Since you have a close relationship with Miss Natsumi, , I think we can also cooperate more in publicity in the future, what do you think?"

For ordinary actors and stars, Thomas, as a business tycoon, would naturally not be able to lower his stature and take the initiative to make friends with each other. However, Chrissy Wynyard, as a world-renowned actress, also has the support of her mother Sharon Wynyard. The prestige and connections inherited are obviously not comparable to those of ordinary celebrities.

Taking into account the number of fans of the other party around the world, as long as the other party is willing to shoot advertisements or endorse his products, it will definitely bring significant publicity effects. Therefore, even if the other party has faded from the screen, he is still a person worth making friends with.

"Although I have no plans to return to the audience's field of vision for the time being, I wouldn't mind launching some friendly cooperation with your company if I have the opportunity in the future." After hearing Thomas' proposal, Bellmore responded with a ladylike smile. .

As a veteran who has been immersed in the entertainment industry for nearly 30 years, Belmore can't see what the other party is thinking, but this does not prevent her from making false claims with the other party first. If Xia Mei and the other party cooperate happily in the future, I don't mind giving their products a stand.

Seeing that although the other party did not agree immediately, he still showed a friendly attitude, Thomas did not say much and happily informed the waiter that the dishes were ready. At the same time, he nodded to Ishino and said: "Mr. Ishino, regarding your previous request The store manager readily agreed, his only request is that he hopes to observe your creative process on the spot.”

"I have no problem here, let's start now." Amid everyone's curious eyes, Ishino smiled and nodded to Thomas and the waiter beside him.

Not long after, as the restaurant staff placed a cake decorating table and a complete set of tools and materials for making cakes on the table next to them, everyone was able to clear up their doubts.

After everything was ready, the manager of the restaurant also came to Ishino from the work area and said hello with a smile: "Mr. Ishino, I am the manager here. I am very happy to be able to observe you, known as the 'Dessert Magician', up close." The whole process of making cakes by yourself.”

"Thank you very much. I would like to thank Mr. Store Manager for allowing me to make my arbitrary request." Seeing that the other party was so kind, Ishino responded with a smile. After a brief greeting, he got into work mode.

"Hiroki-kun, do you still remember the promise we made to you on the first day of our trip?" Ishino took the apron handed by the waiter and put it on, walked to the makeshift cake table and smiled at Hiroki who finally reacted. He said, "You have to look carefully, the next step is the moment to witness the miracle!"
