"Mr. Clare, Mr. Tunkou sent you an invitation to attend the opening ceremony of the Twin Towers skyscraper next week. How should I respond? Should I refuse or accept?"
Shigehiko Tsuchiguchi is also going to the opening ceremony of the Twin Towers skyscraper?
So, Vermouth came because of Shigehiko Tōguchi? To stop the plan to eliminate Councillor Tōguchi at the opening ceremony?
Some time ago, White did report on the organization's movements in the political arena. Vodka frequently contacted Congressman Watanabe, probably to support the new congressman to take office. As for the former partner, Shigehiko Tsuchiguchi, he would naturally be dealt with. This is indeed the style of the organization.
Thinking of this, Fujiwara Yuu did not hesitate and spoke directly:
"Tell Tunkou that I've received an invitation from the Tokiwa Group. I will attend the opening ceremony, but I can't be his personal bodyguard. I can only help him keep an eye on those who might attack him."
"Okay, that's my reply. Mr. Claire, I'm going to hang up now."
"Well, be careful recently. A woman codenamed Vermouth has also come to Japan."
When Fujiwara Yu hung up the phone and walked back, he found Edogawa Conan looking at the photo in Yoshida Ayumi's hand with excitement. Out of curiosity, he leaned over and took a look, only to find that the person in the photo was a bit similar to Mouri Ran.
He tilted his head and asked with some doubt:
"Who is this? She looks a bit like Ms. Maori."
"This is Ran-sama ten years later~ She's so beautiful!" Yoshida Ayumi looked at Conan beside her and pushed him directly, saying, "Conan and Ai, go take the test too. I'm really looking forward to what you'll look like ten years from now!"
Fujiwara Yuu was shocked when he heard this. Conan would naturally become like Kudo Shinichi, and Haibara would naturally become like Miyano Shiho. He glanced at Hara Yoshiaki warily and reached out to stop them, but Maori Kogoro and the others were too quick and had already thrown them onto the chair.
Oh no, something big is going to happen. We have to find a way!
Just when Fujiwara Yuu was worried to the point that his heartbeat quickened, the machine that had been operating normally suddenly issued a warning sound, and the word "ERROR" that appeared on the screen made everyone breathe a sigh of relief.
Miyano Akemi was relieved after seeing this. She walked to Fujiwara Yuu and whispered:
"Ayou, it seems that this machine cannot detect people who have taken APTX4869."
"There is this possibility. It can only be said that the mistake was made at the right time. Otherwise, it would be very difficult to deal with if the photo really appeared." Fujiwara Yu widened his eyes. If a photo of Kudo Shinichi really appeared, he could only ask Kuroba Kaito to bring Nakamori Aoko here for a look so that Maori Ran could dispel her suspicion of Conan.
But now I don’t have such worries, and it’s really great that I don’t have to owe that guy a favor... He is still holding a grudge against me. If Kuroba Kaito hadn’t invited me to dinner, I wouldn’t have forced myself to eat a few pieces of sashimi.
Humph, if I get the chance in the future, I will definitely throw this guy into the aquarium and reward him by letting him dance with the fish.
Sawaguchi Chinami, who had answered the phone, walked towards the group and warned them:
"Everyone, please follow me to the banquet hall on the 75th floor. This is the elevator. Please follow me!"
Kogoro Mouri's face darkened as he heard the key words "75th floor," especially after he stepped into the elevator and realized it was a sightseeing elevator. Suffering from a severe fear of heights, he closed his eyes and frantically grasped at whatever he grabbed, refusing to let go, as if he were going to die together.
The unlucky guy who was caught was Fujiwara Yu. He never thought that he would enjoy such treatment one day. His left hand was held by his girlfriend Miyano Akemi, and his right hand was held tightly by Mori Kogoro... Haha, he really didn't want the blessing of his right hand.
When Haibara Ai saw this scene, she couldn't help but laugh. She also touched Kudo's shoes lightly with her feet, indicating that he should look at a scene that was more interesting than the scenery of Mount Fuji.
Finally they arrived at the 75th floor, and Fujiwara Yu's right hand was finally freed. Maori Kogoro didn't expect that what he subconsciously hugged was Toji Sosuke's right hand. His old face turned red and he smiled embarrassedly.
Mio Tokiwa, dressed in a red professional uniform, smiled as she heard the VIP elevator door open. She extended her hand to shake Kogoro Mori's, then turned to look at Sosuke Takagi who had come with them and said, "I'm so glad to see you!"
"Senior Maori, Officer Takashi, welcome."
Kogoro Mouri smiled and said that he was supposed to come alone. Before he finished speaking, Ran Mouri took the initiative to introduce herself and even mentioned the name of her mother, Eri Kisaki.
As an entrepreneur, how could Mio Tokiwa not know the little girl's little thoughts? She was not angry. After all, her purpose of inviting Kogoro Mouri here was nothing more than to add some heat to the opening ceremony.
Moreover, when introducing himself at the opening ceremony, he can let the guests know that this famous detective is his senior, further strengthening the relationship and allowing some celebrities to continue to cooperate with the Tokiwa Group.
Tokiwa Mio turned slightly to the side, thinking only of the few people beside her, and introduced them:
"Let me introduce you, too. This is my painting teacher, the Japanese painter Mr. Ruzuki Minemizu."
"Jirugetsuhosui? Could it be the painter famous for his paintings of Mount Fuji?"
As soon as Maori Kogoro said this, a drunk bald man pointed at his chest. This man had no manners at all and reeked of alcohol, so Fujiwara Yuu chose to stay away from him.
"I know a little bit about you, too. Are you called Sleepyhead Kogoro Detective?"
"It's Sleepy Kogoro, not some sleepyhead."
Tokiwa Mio hurriedly came between the two of them and said with a smile:
"This is Mr. Oki Iwamatsu, a council member from Nishitama City. When we were planning to build this building, we were really grateful for his help. And this is the building's designer, architect Hidehiko Kazama."
"Actually, I have a little relationship with Mr. Mori and Officer Takashi. Because I am a disciple of Moritani Teiji, but don't worry, I won't blow up this building like Moritani." Hidehiko Kazama raised the corner of his mouth slightly and said calmly.
Fujiwara Yu's mouth twitched involuntarily. He was not worried about the architect going crazy. He was rather worried about the Black Organization who would do anything to achieve their goals. If he stopped their assassination plan, they would probably get so angry that they would blow up the building.
He felt someone pulling his trouser leg, and when he looked down, he saw it was Conan. Only he would do such a thing. After all, when Haibara cried out to him, he would either speak directly or kick him in the leg.
Fujiwara Yuu squatted down and rubbed Conan's round head, and asked:
"What do you want me to do?"
"Brother Yingsi, what phone call did you take just now? I felt that you didn't look very happy after answering the phone. Could it be related to the organization?"
