Chapter 1029 1037 [Amuro Toru: There is something wrong with this person]
Suzuki Sonoko looked at Jiang Xia, then looked at Okiya Subaru who was chatting with Jiang Xia, and her eyes lit up: The law of handsome guys gathering has appeared!
"…" It's a pity that the handsome guy she attracted this time was a little different in age from her. Suzuki Sonoko looked at Okiya Subaru and touched her chin with a little regret.
However, since he seems to be Jiang Xia's friend and he looks good...
Suzuki Sonoko was still much friendlier than usual. She took the initiative to say, "You can come with us to Aunt Toya's place and sit for a while. We'll go to the classroom together in the evening - that classroom is hard to find, you may not be able to find it by yourself." - This person was so confused that he could even misread the time, and his ability to find the way must not be very good.
Jiang Xia was about to nod in agreement.
But at this moment, he was suddenly startled, turned his head quickly and looked at the municipal building diagonally behind him.
Under the sunlight, the windows of the building flashed with reflections, making it impossible to see the interior clearly.
However, Jiang Xia always felt that someone in the building seemed to be watching this place.
He was puzzled for a moment, then suddenly remembered something and a figure appeared in his mind.
Jiang Xia: “…” Could it be the boss?
If he received the "Uzo special invitation letter", Toru Amuro would indeed come to check it out - after all, Jiang Xia did not specify the specific date in the invitation letter, but only said "in the next few days".
Toru Amuro had been able to endure seven days of closed-door living to verify the identity of "Uzo". Given this, it was quite normal for him to come to the municipal building to wait.
…
Okiya Subaru noticed Jiang Xia's gaze.
He also looked towards the building, but also couldn't see the scene behind the window clearly, so he had to ask: "What's wrong?"
Jiang Xia shook his head nonchalantly: "It feels like someone is watching me... But it's probably an illusion, or maybe someone is just resting their eyes and looking outside casually."
Okiya Subaru listened to his relaxed tone, but his expression changed slightly: "..." Is it Uzo? It must be! He is indeed nearby!
I don't know if the boss is targeting Mao Lilan or Jiang Xia...
Okiya Subaru wrapped himself in his coat and suddenly felt a little cold.
He subconsciously glanced at his phone.
But there was no email from Uzo. It looked like... Uzo didn't seem to mind his current actions?
Maybe he thought that keeping an informant among this group of high school students would better promote the development of the script.
Okiya Subaru: "..."
...How about following this group of people and seeing what the situation is like before the boss gives any instructions?
…
I was struggling with my conscience when I suddenly heard footsteps from the corner of the street.
Okiya Subaru suddenly raised his head and saw a woman wearing a high-end suit and carrying a bag, running towards him quickly.
Suzuki Sonoko also heard the noise.
Following the sound, she saw that it was Toya Eiko. She immediately turned to look at the driver.
The driver also took out a bouquet of flowers that had been prepared in advance from the car and handed it to Suzuki Sonoko.
"Ms. Toya!"
Suzuki Sonoko never called her auntie to her face.
She waved to Toya Eiko, walked over, handed the flowers to the top designer who hurried over, and raised her chin proudly: "Long time no see, I brought you a suitable model--"
As she spoke, Suzuki Sonoko happily waved her hand back, pointing to Mouri Ran and Jiang Xia, whom she had abducted.
I thought Toya Eiko would be surprised and happy, and would praise her for her "good taste!", and then start taking crazy photos of the models changing their clothes, and then give her a refined photo album in the future...
But it didn’t.
…
Toya Eiko was obviously much calmer than Suzuki Sonoko had imagined. In fact, when her eyes fell on Jiang Xia and she recognized the detective, the corner of her eye seemed to twitch slightly.
Suzuki Sonoko was startled: "...What's wrong?"
"…Hmm? Nothing. Just a big surprise."
Chairman Toya took the bouquet from her, quickly regained his elegance, and said with a kind smile, "Come in first. I'm so sorry - I was in the cafe just now and forgot to check the time. I was almost late."
As she spoke, she walked quickly into the building.
Seeing this, several high school students followed suit.
Subaru Okiya hesitated for a moment. He looked up at the municipal building diagonally behind him, then looked at his cell phone which had no message. After hesitating for a moment, he had to follow.
At the same time.
In a building nearly a hundred meters away, behind the reflective floor-to-ceiling windows.
A pair of purple-gray eyes stared at Okiya Subaru's back quietly, with a hint of inquiry in his solemn gaze.
…
The entrance of Toya Building.
Jiang Xia and the others followed Toya Eiko and walked towards the hall.
Toya Eiko seemed to be distracted and didn't even notice the guests behind her. She walked ahead alone with big strides.
Conan looked at the exquisitely designed building in front of him, then glanced at the empty lobby and muttered, "How deserted."
"Because today is a regular holiday." Mao Lilan thought of something and whispered:
"Also, a while ago, the fashion show of Toya Design Company was suddenly cancelled. I heard that it was because their finale had a lot of details overlapped with the work of their competitors that was shown earlier. The company suffered a big blow because of this incident and fired some employees, and some employees resigned voluntarily..."
As they were talking, they had already arrived in the hall.
Without the buffer of street noise, conversations will be much clearer than before.
A few young people who loved gossip stopped discussing the bleak situation of Toya Company and quietly walked into the hall.
…
It's really quiet here.
In the huge hall, besides them, there were only two elderly security guards.
However, after they entered the door, another person walked in.
——She was a fashionably dressed woman, obviously an employee here, and looked very young.
She walked into the hall with a familiar look, looked around, nodded and greeted the chairman, saying perfunctorily: "Good afternoon."
"Good afternoon." Chairman Toya nodded to her and briefly introduced the two parties, "This is Mika Taniguchi, my secretary."
Then he gestured to the group of people behind him and said to Mika Taniguchi: "This is Miss Sonoko and her friends. They are also our models today."
Mika Taniguchi glanced at it with little interest and responded through her nose, obviously feeling somewhat disgusted with the behavior of "hiring an amateur as a model".
Chairman Toya was a little embarrassed when he saw her lack of interest. He cleared his throat and said, "I'm sorry to ask you to come and help me on my regular holiday."
"Nothing." Taniguchi Mika waved her hand indifferently:
"But if you really feel sorry, please let me complete the resignation procedures as soon as possible. Your HR is too inefficient. I really can't stay in a company that makes employees work overtime on their days off."
