Chapter 757 Cancellation
After separating from Xiao Ai and the others, Guangyou walked slowly on the street with Hattori Heiji and Uncle Mori.

The men were not in the mood to go shopping, but there were still several hours before the agreed time, so it would be a bit boring to wait in the past now.

After asking the opinions of several people, Uncle Mori led a group of people into an izakaya near the car rental company.

Because there was still an investigation in the afternoon, Uncle Maori didn't drink any alcohol, and only ordered some side dishes, such as fried chicken, grilled skewers, and oden.

By the way, I chatted with the owner of the izakaya that I have known for a long time.

The three of Kosuke were sitting at another table, and Hattori Heiji and Conan were chatting while eating, and Kosuke didn't participate in the conversation between the two of them.

He sat in his seat, while eating the skewers grilled with sauce, he exchanged text messages with Xiao Ai.

After staying in the izakaya for almost two hours, Uncle Mori settled the bill and left the izakaya with a few people.

At 04:30 in the afternoon, Kubado Town [-]-chome.

A car slowly stopped in front of Zhujiao's house.

After the car stopped, Hattori Heiji and Conan opened the door and got out of the car.

Standing in front of the house number, confirming the specific address, and looking at the current time, Hattori Heiji frowned slightly.

He said with some distress: "It's here, but we were late for 10 minutes, and I don't know if there will be any impact. I feel a little difficult."

"Three ten minutes?" Uncle Mao Li pulled out the car key, stretched out his hand to open the car door, and said as he got out of the car, "It's only three ten minutes, so it shouldn't be a big deal."

"But Mr. Kusukawa specifically told me that the other party is a person who is very picky about time." Hattori Heiji explained, "It should be fine if it is only a minute or two, but we are both late for an hour."

"Anyway, we've come here~ ah~" Guangyou closed the car door, yawned, reached out to wipe the crystals from the corners of his eyes, paused, and said, "Go ahead and ask."

"Well, that's the only way to go." Hattori Heiji nodded, walked into the courtyard of Zhujiao's house, and shouted, "Excuse me, is anyone there?"

Just a few steps away, Hattori Heiji heard a sullen female voice coming from the room, so he stopped in his tracks.

"Please leave now, or I will call the police!"

Uncle Mao Li and Guangyou who followed in also heard the voice, Guangyou guessed: "Maybe they are chasing the salesman away."

"Maybe." Hattori Heiji was noncommittal, listening to the movement inside, he put his hand on the door and opened a gap.

Then, several people saw the owner of the voice just now, an elderly woman, and the years had left obvious marks on her face.

In the hallway in front of the woman, stood a man in a suit.

After hearing that sentence, the man quickly explained: "I said earlier, I didn't come to visit the house to force sales."

"I just brought you the catalog of hanging scrolls, teapots and other antiques sold in my shop for your reference."

Guangyou, who was "eavesdropping" at the door, raised his eyebrows.

Isn't this still a promotion?
"I already told you."

The woman stood on the porch, looked down at the man who came to sell, and said impatiently, "I'm not interested in that kind of dusty scrap metal at all."

"If this is the case, then I hope you can accept the catalog and the key ring for the prosperous business."

The man did not continue to pester like other salesmen. He handed the catalog and the key ring to the woman, and said kindly, "If you need it someday, come to our store."

"You don't have to worry about that." The woman didn't reach out to take the catalog and the key ring, but raised her hand and knocked those two things to the ground.

Then, the woman snorted coldly, and said disdainfully: "Our family is not poor enough to collect your free gifts."

The woman's patience seemed to have been worn out, with anger on her face, she shouted at the man: "Please get out quickly, okay?!"

The man was not angry. After bowing a few times to express his apology, he squatted down and picked up the catalog and key ring that had fallen on the floor.

While picking it up, he said, "No, I'm sorry, I really bothered you."

After picking up his things, the man turned around and pushed open the door.

When he saw Guangyou and his group at the door, he was stunned for a moment, then leaned slightly, lowered his head slightly, and walked past them.

After the man left, the woman also saw a few people at the door and asked, "What's the matter? What's the matter with you guys?"

"We came here to inspect the scene on behalf of Mr. Nan Chuan." Uncle Mao Li looked back, showing a kind smile, and explained.

Hearing what Uncle Mao Li said, the woman nodded and said, "So it's because of that, but I don't need it anymore."

"Maybe it's because I've been too nervous recently, that's why I feel that way. If there's nothing else, please come back."

Although he didn't know what was going on, Uncle Mao Li didn't ask any further questions. He nodded with a smile and said to the woman, "That's really bothering you. Let's go first."

"Well, walk slowly."

After some courtesies, Uncle Mao Li took a few people and left the courtyard of Zhujiao's house.

"Uncle, can we go back now?"

Seeing the current situation, Guangyou felt that it was impossible to continue the investigation.

After all, the client decided to cancel it, so why investigate?
"Well, let's go back." Uncle Mori nodded, then looked at Hattori Heiji and asked, "Why is it different from what you said?"

While in the car, he asked Hattori Heiji about the general situation of the commission.

It probably means that at night, suspicious figures will appear nearby.

The woman was troubled by this, so she asked Mr. Kusukawa to come to her house to inspect the scene.

However, the situation is completely different now.

"I can't help it." Hattori Heiji was also very helpless, and defended himself, "Mr. Kusukawa was imprisoned by that Obasan three days ago, and it is normal for there to be changes."

"Don't worry about this, since that aunt doesn't need to investigate, then let's go back." Guangyou still thought about going back early to buy some food, and then prepare a big meal for Xiao Ai.

"But it's weird." Conan put forward a different opinion, "It's obviously too disturbing, so you have to entrust a detective to check it, how can you say it's too neurotic?"

"Yeah, I think there must be something wrong with that aunt." Hattori Heiji nodded and echoed.

"What's strange? What's the problem."

Glancing at Hattori Heiji, then at Conan, Koyou shook his head helplessly, and said, "I don't want to investigate, so why do you have to investigate?"

"That's right." Uncle Mao Li just felt that his trip was wasted today, and he didn't feel that there was anything wrong with that woman.

If I insist on talking about the problem, it is that I have a bit of a temper.

This can also be explained, maybe because that woman hates sales, or maybe because she has been in a bad mood these days.

"I think we'd better go back." Uncle Mao Li looked at the current time and said to several people, "Just like Guangyou said, since the commission has been cancelled, there is nothing for us."

 I'm thinking about asking for leave tomorrow, but I'm still struggling.
