Be the god of death in the world of famous detectives

Chapter 134 On Bragging, I Have Never Lost
Clouds covered the sky, raindrops were beating down, and the yacht was blown up and down by the storm.

Ichiji Takashi stepped on the wet deck in some embarrassment, he clenched the railing tightly, watched the girl in front of him tie her hair into a neat ponytail, watched her climb lightly along the side of the ship onto a small rubber boat, wearing good life jacket...

Slowly, he was filled with inexplicable panic.

Yizhi Takashi hesitated for a while, then suggested in a low voice, "Why don't you...don't go."

As soon as the voice came out, it was crushed by the rain and wind, and it couldn't reach the girl's ears at all.

Yaeko carefully checked the motor on the dinghy, then she wiped the rain off her face, looked up and shouted to Takashi Ichie, "Hey, Takashi! Throw down the life jacket!"

This is the volume of speaking in a storm.

Ichie Takashi nodded stiffly, and picked up the orange life jacket at his feet.

It was supposed to be a warm tone, but in the eyes of Ichiji Takashi, it stabbed like an ice knife, making his hands tremble.

He squeezed the life jacket and didn't move for a long time.

It wasn't until the girl started to urge that he said again, "...don't go."

Yaeko could only see his lips moving, but couldn't hear his voice at all. She was a little anxious and helpless, and shouted:

"Ding----"

Metal humming sounded without warning, piercing Zhilong's eardrum sharply.

With a bang, he jumped up from the bed, and pressed the old-fashioned mechanical alarm clock on the bedside table that was beating back and forth.

Since the new alarm clock function was added to the mobile phone, this kind of noisy old-fashioned alarm clock has been rarely used by people.

But Ichitaka didn't dislike this movement.

The metal pendulum struggled back and forth in his hand, Yizhilong stared at it for a while, then suddenly wiped his face severely, turned off the alarm clock switch, and got out of bed.

He gently put the alarm clock back on the bedside table.

This alarm clock is painted pink, and there are cute cartoon graphics on the edge. It looks cute, and it doesn't look like something bought by a big man.

And the fact is true—two years ago, during an event at the Yacht Club, Ichie Takashi forgot to bring his alarm clock. He wanted to take a nap but was afraid of oversleeping, so Yaeko lent him his own.

The little girl is full of energy, running around to organize parties, replenishing what is needed, and has no habit of taking a nap at all.

When Takashi Yizhi first took over the alarm clock, he still didn't like the delicate pink color, and was going to return it to the original owner as soon as the party was over.

Unexpectedly, an alarm clock is stronger than a person. After the party, the alarm clock is still there, but the owner is gone.

After washing up, Takashi Ichiji changed into a plain suit with an inconspicuous dark tie, and adjusted his expression in the mirror.

When he went out, he had changed from a slightly gloomy youth to a contented licking dog.

two years.

The nightmare that had plagued him for more than 700 days was finally temporarily over today.

-

The sky was getting darker, and the suburbs were getting quieter, but in a large villa on the mountain, it was still lively and noisy.

People raised their glasses and wished with the president of Sijing Group: "Happy birthday!"

In the center of her line of sight, Reika Sii bent her eyes reservedly, held up her dress and bowed to them, then she leaned slightly, surrounded by everyone, and blew on the exquisite and luxurious cake in front of her.

The 24 candles were gradually extinguished, announcing the beginning of the birthday party.

President Sijing cleared his throat, "Thank you very much for taking time out of your busy schedule to attend my daughter's birthday party. In the future, please continue to give Sijing Group support and help!"

There was warm applause from the audience, and Takashi Ichiji clapped along with the crowd, his eyes calm.

President Sijing, who was overwhelmed by the applause, enjoyed it for a few seconds before raising his hand to suppress it.

After the surroundings were quiet, he continued, "Before the banquet officially begins, please allow me to introduce a special guest to you. This gentleman has solved many difficult cases and is currently the detective with the highest reporting rate. He is— — Mr. Mori Kogoro!"

clap clap-

Applause sounded again, ready to welcome the appearance of "Mr. Mori Kogoro". At the same time, everyone turned their heads to look in the direction indicated by President Sijing.

There are actually a lot of people in that direction, but you don't need to point them out. Everyone can guess who is "Moori Kogoro" at a glance.

Because the people at this table are really easy to identify.In the venue where successful business people gather, only their painting styles are different:

——The clothes are not expensive, and the hairstyle is not carefully designed.The most important thing is that everyone else is listening to the speech carefully, only they are still eating.

Most of the people who came to this banquet had their needs from the Four Wells Group, and it was impossible for them to be so inattentive to their image. No matter how you think about it, this seemed to be done by outsiders who did not depend on the Four Wells Group for food.

Feeling that she had become the focus of attention, the girl who looked like a high school student sat up nervously, and put her hands on her lap neatly.

The young man next to her also put down the knife as if nothing had happened, wiped his mouth, sat upright with the girl, and silently looked at the only middle-aged man who didn't understand the air.

Mori Kogoro was unaware of the change in the atmosphere, and urged the people at the same table, "Why don't you stop, keep eating! This is a rare delicacy in the world! I don't know if it can be packed and taken away, I will ask... "

"Dad!" The girl gritted her teeth and glared at him.

The young man also cleared his throat, "President Sijing has something to ask for you."

"...Uh, yes." It was the first time President Sijing saw this kind of battle, he wiped the sweat off his head in embarrassment, and tried to continue the interrupted introduction, "A few days ago, he helped my little girl a lot."

Mori Kogoro does have a lot of popularity.

Coupled with President Sijing's strong introduction, the onlookers could only pretend that they hadn't seen anything just now, closing their eyes and bragging, "Oh, it turned out to be that famous, sleeping Kogoro?! I actually saw a real person! As expected of Sijing Mr. Jing, you can actually hire such a famous detective!"

Using this topic as a starting point, people started walking around each other, chatting about things they were interested in.

For the time being, no one came to look for Ichiji Takashi, and his position was very close to Mori Kogoro. After thinking about it, he simply moved towards Mori Kogoro with a cup in his hand.

Although he was going to do something less legal today, Takashi Ichieda was not afraid of the detective Mori Kogoro, especially after seeing the scene just now.

Great detective?
...It's just a wine bag and rice bag that is good at packaging.

The so-called "helped a lot" is also exaggerated by President Sijing-this entrepreneur just thinks that getting involved with a famous detective can better show his energy and dignity.

Ichiji Takashi was halfway there when he heard the young girl excitedly ask, "Dad, what case is Mr. Yoshii talking about?"

Mori Kogoro subconsciously glanced at the young man, and the latter raised his hand in a very considerate manner, and made a gesture in front of his mouth, as if signaling that he should not say anything.

Mori Kogoro was very relieved, and began to talk nonsense with confidence, pretending to be mysterious, "This is a rather tricky case, and it needs to be kept secret."

Takashi almost laughed out loud.

He took the last few steps, approached Moori Kogoro, and smiled as if trying to build a relationship, "Detective Maori, I heard! You helped Miss Lihua find her pet dog, Babu, that puppy is very Clever, you can catch it, it's really..."

"Where!! I have won the prize!!" Mouri Kogoro interrupted him loudly.

However it was too late.

Ichiji Takashi clearly saw that the girl rolled her dead fish eyes with an expression of "as expected".

Ichitaka was in a good mood.

It's not that he has any grudges against Mori Kogoro, but he just wanted to make a fool of himself, wanting to add trouble to those pious and pious people, and to make his boring life more interesting.

He took out his business card, handed it over politely, and said humbly, "My name is Yizhi. I have heard that you will come to the banquet, and I have always wanted to see your style, but I didn't expect that you are more handsome than I imagined! "

Kogoro Moori forgot the embarrassment just now, and scratched his head happily, "You are too proud!"

"This is not a compliment, but a fact." A voice interjected.

Several people turned their heads one after another, and saw a man with blond hair and a bright white suit approaching. He also handed over a business card with the name "Nikaido Yuji" on it.

Nikaido is more handsome than Ichie Takashi, and his mouth is better than Ichie Takashi's. He looked at Mori Kogoro, and said sincerely, "As long as you glance with your sharp eyes, no matter who you are, you will bow your head and admit your guilt, and accept the punishment of the law... ..."

When he said this, he saw the eyebrows of the young man with Mori Kogoro twitch, as if thinking of something strange.

But Nikaido didn't care about the reaction of these people, and his original purpose was not to curry favor with Mori Kogoro.

Nikaido turned his head, looked at Reika Yotsui who was not far away, and finished the second half of the sentence, "You are indeed the famous detective appointed by the lady!"

"...", the corners of Yizhilong's mouth curled up reluctantly, and his tone was slightly exaggerated, "Yeah, her eyesight is really high!"
