Chapter 222 Conan's Determination



Given Sonoko's carefree personality, it's hard to imagine that she could be competent for such a significant and serious responsibility.

All that was left were Tomoko Suzuki and her daughter Ayako Suzuki.

They have the strong backing of the Suzuki Group and a wealth of management experience.

They possess outstanding abilities in both interpersonal communication and decision-making, making them an ideal candidate.

The reason for choosing Ayako is naturally because if Ayako, as the daughter, does something wrong, isn't it only natural for Tomoko, as the mother, to help her out?

As for how to help, we'll talk about that later...

"A female emperor? That's not a bad idea!" After thinking it over carefully, Ai realized that this was the best option since Yuzuru was unwilling to take the role.

After all, Sonoko is now managing such a large Suzuki conglomerate, and it's thriving!

These days, managing a country shouldn't be a big problem.

She felt that Yuzuru Nan seemed to be plotting something else.

"What did the Prime Minister say?"

Ai frowned slightly. Since the Emperor, who holds the most power in form, has been appointed, the Prime Minister, who actually holds the most power, must also be properly dealt with.

Hearing Ai ask this, Yuzuru Hanyu smiled confidently and said, "I already have someone in mind for this too."

He'd always wanted to admire a certain girl with the largest bust in the entire world.

Moreover, the other party's family can be described as having produced several prime ministers.

The problem is that her family and the Suzuki family don't get along. Last time, Hattori Heizo was only criticized, but her family played a significant role in the criticism.

...

"Young Master Yuzuru, what are you talking about? You seem to be having a great time."

Akemi carried the freshly made snacks out of the kitchen, her gaze falling on the two people loudly plotting in the living room, and asked curiously.

Without even looking up, Ai replied, "We were talking about how to become the Emperor and Prime Minister."

"Huh?" Akemi placed the snacks on the table, looking completely bewildered, and asked in confusion, "What Emperor and Prime Minister? What happened to them?"

"Nothing much, it's just that Ai thinks they should replace them with someone else," Yuzuru explained to Akemi with a smile.

After figuring out what was going on, Akemi's eyes lit up instantly, and she exclaimed excitedly, "Really? A female emperor! That sounds so fun!"

She had no doubt about Yuzuru's abilities and enthusiastically participated in the discussion.

"If I remember correctly, the first female emperor of Japan was Empress Suiko, right?" Akemi tilted her head, trying hard to recall the historical knowledge she knew.

"Yes, she ushered in the Asuka Era." Ai nodded, confirming her sister's statement.

"If Ayako were to become the Empress, what era would it be called?" Akemi asked curiously, blinking her eyes.

"The era of Yuzuru? The era of the extraordinary?" Yuzuru Nan casually guessed.

In a small villa, the three women, master and servants, were discussing a major event—the transformation of a nation—as if it were an easy matter for them.

Meanwhile, the current emperor, who is dutifully playing the role of a mascot and enjoying life to the fullest, is completely unaware that his position is about to be in jeopardy.

...

Kudo House.

"La la la la la, la la la la..."

Yukiko hummed a cheerful tune, her face beaming with a bright smile, and happily pushed open the door to her villa.

She was carrying a bag of spirit rice, a weight she would normally say she couldn't lift, but now she moved with light steps, running towards the kitchen like the wind.

"Hehe, it wasn't a waste to eat so much of Eri's cooking this time." Yukiko thought to herself as she walked.

Her eyes gleamed with triumph, and she didn't feel the weight of the spirit rice in her hand at all. This was something she had endured humiliation for so many days to painstakingly extort from Eri!

In the living room, Conan, looking distressed, sat on the sofa, intently watching the news program on TV.

Hearing the sound from the doorway, he instinctively turned around and saw Yukiko walk in. He couldn't help but ask curiously, "Mom, you're back?"

"Uh..." Yukiko was taken aback, and the smile on her face instantly froze. She didn't expect her son to still be home at this time. She quietly hid the spirit rice in her hand behind her back, trying to cover it up.

Conan noticed his mother's unusual behavior and asked curiously, "Mom, what's wrong? Also, what are you holding in your hand?"

Yukiko quickly chuckled awkwardly and explained, "Oh, it's nothing, just some everyday items. By the way, has your Black friend left yet?"

"We're off! We carried the train overnight. If we hadn't left soon, Mom, I was afraid you'd almost forget you even have a son!" Conan noticed Yukiko's little actions and muttered with a black line on his forehead, "Also, Hattori is just a little dark-skinned, he's not black!"

"Haha, how could that be? Shinichi, how could you think of your mom like that!" Yukiko laughed awkwardly, her eyes darting around.

She's had so much fun with Eri these past few days that she's completely forgotten about her son.

However, Conan wasn't buying it and sneered, "Then show me what's behind you."

Upon hearing this, Yukiko immediately panicked and said quickly, "Shinichi, what are you saying? There's nothing behind me, you must be mistaken!" After saying that, she quickly ran upstairs.

She had to go upstairs and lock Lingmi in the safe, making sure her mentally challenged son couldn't find it.

Conan watched Yukiko's departing figure, shook his head helplessly, and sighed deeply.

His gaze then returned to the television news.

"It just fizzled out like that? You're really something, Yuzuru!" Conan thought to himself.

Thinking about the thrilling events of yesterday, and looking at the absurd news reports now, Conan's eyes became even more determined.

He won't give up!

Even though his father told him in the morning that the FBI had chosen to remain silent on the matter and would no longer testify, and that he should stop provoking Yuzuru, Conan had no intention of letting the matter rest.

"So many innocent lives were lost just like that; Yuzuru Hanyu must pay the price!"

"Even if it costs me my title as the Sherlock Holmes of the Heisei era, I will bring the truth to light!"

Conan made up his mind; this was something he and Heiji Hattori had discussed the night before.

No matter how powerful Hanyu Nan's background is, they are determined to expose the truth and let justice prevail.
