Fei Yingli changed the subject. Although she still used a calm tone, everyone could hear the determination between the lines.

"So, this is the last time. I will complete the commission for him and let him pay off the debt... Of course, there is no need for him to write an IOU."

"Eh……?"

"If a similar situation happens again, I will completely break up with him and directly use legal means to get custody of you Lan."

The female lawyer was decisive and did not show any nostalgia. ?

Chapter 71 Brother can’t blow his sister’s mouth! (Seventh update)

The scene changes, and the black Audi mixes in the traffic on the highway and keeps driving at a constant speed.

The person responsible for driving is naturally Serabel.

Yukiko was sitting in the passenger seat, holding a piece of letter paper and information that had been printed out not long ago and constantly flipping through it. The seat belt worn due to traffic regulations outlined an astonishing figure on the older girl's chest. Soft curve.

"So now we can almost talk about it. What is the content of this so-called commission?"

Serabel glanced at the instructions on the car navigation system and turned on the left turn signal.

"Hmm~ Wait a minute."

Yukiko pulled the peaked cap on her head to protect herself from the sun and organized all the information in her hands together.

"Well, that's almost it. Sister is going to start talking next. Are you ready?"

"Hi hi..."

"Really, can't you show a little excitement? If you go to a celebrity concert as a fan, you will be complained by other fans~"

"So I've never been to a concert..."

"Shut up, brother can't refute sister's words!"

Pouting?Why pout?

Serabel thought blankly.

There was no time to ask a question, Yukiko coughed slightly and started to explain.

"First of all, the person who entrusted us this time is a wealthy family named Fujieda. It is said that the current head of their family, Mikio Fujieda, has recently received a death threat from someone, so he wants us to help find the person who sent the death threat. people."

"Death threats?"

Serabel snorted.

"Those who can reach the level of death threats either have a fundamental conflict of interest or have some old grudges. If you want to investigate, you have to start with Mikio Fujieda's personal network."

Yukiko leaned slightly towards the side of the car door, resting her elbow on the window edge and lightly touching her forehead with her fingertips: "Well~ Generally speaking, this is true, but this Fujieda Mikio is really not an ordinary person."

"How to say?"

"It's not much to say, but he did a lot of bad things when he was young. By the way, he was not originally a member of the Fujieda family, but later captured the eldest daughter of the Fujieda family through outstanding means and married into the family. Later, with the help of the Fujieda family, He secretly used his resources to run his previous illegal businesses more aggressively."

"Excuse?"

Serabel raised her eyebrows slightly.

However, he was not too surprised. Such operations are very common in many countries with solidified classes, especially in Japan. If a local prominent family has only daughters in a certain generation or has sons but the sons are not promising, the previous generation will They will consider recruiting a son-in-law and recruit him as a candidate to live in the next generation.

Mikio Fujieda's ability to run an illegal business without being killed on the street when he was young has proven his ability, and his subsequent success in marrying into the Fujieda family must not have been the result of the pure love brain of the eldest daughter in the latter's family.

But then problems arise.

If this thief had been running an illegal business since he was young, he would have made countless enemies over the years.

The scope of targets that need to be investigated has suddenly expanded a lot, but Serabel is not in a hurry. In the final analysis, the specific issues will have to wait until he is asked in detail before he can worry about it.

“So, it’s Mikio Fujieda’s wife who entrusted us with the investigation?”

"Well, that's not the case. The one who entrusted us is actually Fujieda Shigeru, the younger brother of the eldest daughter of the Fujieda family."

Yukiko lowered her head and turned the page of the information in her hand.

"Furthermore, it is said that the eldest daughter of the Fujieda family passed away due to illness half a year ago. Mikio Fujieda may have had a second marriage now."

The second wife means the second wife married after the death of the original wife.

However, it goes without saying that he immediately married his second wife not long after his first wife passed away. He has no feelings for his married wife. This guy is quite extravagant and lustful, isn't he?

Although they haven't met each other yet, Serabel already has a certain idea of ​​what kind of person Mikio Fujieda is.

But then again——

"So why did you come with me, Yukiko-sama?"

"Ok?"

As if she had considerable doubts about this statement, Yukiko tilted her head with a cute smile, and a question mark bubbled up above her head like a blue cat bug.

Serabel changed her explanation with a strong desire to survive: "I mean, since the other party is running an illegal business, there may be certain risks in investigating him. In fact, as a detective, I can go alone, Yukiko Sister, there is absolutely no need for you to come with me."

"Hey, are you worried about me, sister? But it's about this issue~"

Yukiko shook her head and deliberately prolonged her tone.

"After all, no matter how you call me sister, I can still be regarded as a female detective."

what?

Serabel followed up with a question mark, thinking that since you are also a detective, why do you have to ask me to come with you? You can just handle it yourself.

"...So this time it's a script where the detective sister leads me, a trainee detective, to kill people all the way and show off the master's style to solve the case easily?"

"No no no~"

Yukiko blinked one eye and shook her index finger playfully.

"It's a script where the detective sister gives the trainee detective brother a chance to perform."

"Alas……"

You are worthy of being able to speak so confidently about paddling to fish.

Serabel said to her heart.

After all, it was still within the boundaries of Tokyo. After about three and ten minutes' drive, the black Audi slowly stopped in front of the gate of a villa that was much more imposing than Kudo's house.

In fact, if we just talk about the size of the house, this Fujieda house is not much bigger than the Kudo house. The so-called bigness mainly comes from the yard.

If the yard in front of Kudo's house is just big enough to grow some flowers and plants, then the yard of Fujieda's house is large enough to not only plant flowers, but even dig a swimming pool, set up a fountain, and hold a large barbecue party.

"Oh ~ what a beautiful courtyard!" Yukiko couldn't help but admired as soon as she got off the car.

As mentioned, under the bright golden sunshine, various flower beds can be seen everywhere in the courtyard of Fujizhi House. From daisies to roses, there are almost all kinds of flowers, and they are all neatly trimmed. At first glance, it makes people think they are from some European country. Nobles or the court.

Serabel was not very interested in these, and simply replied "Indeed, I really don't care" and then came to the door and prepared to ring the doorbell.

However, at this moment, a white SUV drove over on the road in the distance.

Although the direction they came from was completely different from that of Serabel and the others, they were very purposeful. They slowed down when they were still some distance away from the entrance of the villa, and then stopped at the main entrance.

Serabel was stunned for a moment, because through the coated car window, he seemed to see two familiar faces.

The people in the car were obviously aware of this.

As the car window rolled down, the faces of Xiaolan and Fei Yingli appeared in the car.

"Eri?"

"Yukiko?"?

Chapter 72 The battle between the two queens (eighth update)

Just... quite unexpected.

Serabel didn't expect to meet Xiaolan here at all, and although the intellectual beauty sitting next to the latter had only met each other once, there was no doubt that it was the day they first arrived in Japan at the Rice Flower Cafe. The concubine lawyer I met there.

Looking at this situation, it seems that the destination of both parties is the same?

Before Serabel and Xiaolan could discuss their condition, two mature beauties in appearance, figure, and temperament took the lead in chatting with them.

"Wait a minute, could it be... Eri?" Yukiko was the first to open her eyes wide and speak out in surprise.

"Yukiko?" Fei Yingli, who had just turned off the car, parked the car and opened the door, was also stunned and blurted out subconsciously.

The two sides looked at each other, and no one continued to speak. The atmosphere was once delicate.

Small beads of sweat broke out on Xiaolan's forehead.

Just...how should I put it, that was not the atmosphere that a meeting between close friends should have. If I had to say it, it was probably more like the feeling that ancient swordsmen were rivals but also cherished each other.

"You two know each other?" Serabel asked doubtfully.

Of course, his question was immediately blocked by the collision between the two beauties.

The next second, two pairs of slender hands faced each other and clasped together with their fingers intertwined.

"Oh, I knew it was indeed Eri-chan. I haven't seen her for several years, but she's still as beautiful as before!"

"No, Yukiko-chan is the one. If I remember correctly, we haven't seen each other since you and Yusaku-kun went to the United States. You are really well taken care of. You look much younger than me."

Well, it’s a classic business exchange.

After the simple greetings ended, the two beauties each took a half step back and let go of their held hands.

Yukiko was the first to ask: "Is it true that Eri came here under the entrustment of the Fujieda family?"

"That's true. It is said that Mikio Fujieda, the current head of the Fujieda family, has received death threats recently and wants us to help find the culprit..." Fei Yingli was slightly stunned, "So, could Yukiko be the same?"

"Well, actually, so am I." Yukiko tilted her head and looked at Fei Yingli and Xiaolan, "But Yingli, you are not a lawyer. Finding criminals should be a detective's job, right?"

"This was actually supposed to be a commission from Mao... Kogoro."

Fei Yingli stumbled and quickly changed her words.

"But he's a little bit stuck at the moment, so Lan and I came over."

Then she glanced at Yukiko curiously and then at Serabel next to the latter.

"I remember this kid solved the case in the coffee shop..."

"It's Sera-kun." Xiaolan reminded in a low voice from the side.

"Serrabelle." Serabelle still reported her name, "We are acquaintances with Miss Maori."

"Oh, I'm sorry for being rude." Fei Yingli smiled, "I was too hasty in the coffee shop before. Now let me introduce myself again. My name is Fei Yingli, and I am Lan's mother."

Then she turned to Yukiko again, a little confused.

"But Yukiko, how did you meet Sera-kun? And it seems like you guys came together for this commission?"

"Well……"

Yukiko's eyes wandered slightly, and she came up with something very similar to what Fei Yingri said just now.

"Actually, this commission is not mine. I was supposed to find a job... Yusaku's help. However, he is not very busy in the United States at the moment, so I came here in my place. As for Sera-kun, it was... I pulled you over to help, so you must have benefited from our new sauce."

"Eh? Do Sera-kun and Shinichi know each other?" Xiaolan captured the key content.

"know."

Serabel's answer was quite concise and clear.

Just when Xiaolan wanted to ask more questions, Serabel looked around her.

"Where's Conan? I don't think I saw him coming."

"Oh, Conan is taking care of his father at home now." Xiaolan blurted out subconsciously.

After she finished speaking, she realized that she had said the wrong thing and it was too late to cover it up.

"Take care of me? Is Maori-kun not in good health?" Yukiko asked kindly.

"It's okay..."

Fei Yingli nodded reluctantly and gave a somewhat ambiguous answer.

"What about Yusaku-kun, how are you doing lately?"
