Chapter 10611069 [Unexpected Cooperation]
Jiang Xia nodded, and before Fengjian Yingyan came over, he whispered to Amuro Toru in a voice that could not be heard over there: "I met him when I came here last time. I remember his name was Fengjian Yingyan, and he was the apprentice of Moriya Teiji - by the way, you know Moriya Teiji, right? He is an architectural designer I met by chance before, and we had some exchanges before."
Toru Amuro: "..."
Have you had a little communication with an architect?
Are you referring to the obsessive-compulsive master who was sent to jail by you and later threatened to sue you?
...Fortunately, the matter was suppressed in the end. It might be because Moriya Teiji was timid, or he might be scared by Jiang Xia. In short, in the end, the situation was much easier to handle than expected.
Amuro Toru recalled what happened at that time and pressed his forehead tiredly - Moriya Teiji installed a large number of bombs on the ring line and the municipal center. Once detonated, the consequences would be disastrous. He did pay attention to this matter.
When he thought of Teiji Moritani and looked at the approaching Hidehiko Kazama, Toru Amuro couldn't help but look more scrutinizing: What was the purpose of the disciple of that bomb maniac coming to see Jiang Xia?
Jiang Xia looked at Hidehiko Kazama who was approaching, and also didn't know why he was so familiar.
——Could it be that after the master was imprisoned, Kazama Hidehiko, who had different ideas from his master, finally had the opportunity to express himself, and therefore he looked upon him as his "benefactor" with particular favor?
…
Hidehiko Kazama was indeed quite friendly to Jiang Xia.
He quickly walked through the banquet hall and came in front of Jiang Xia. He turned his head and glanced at the French window next to him: "Why are you here? I thought you would definitely go to the opposite side to admire Mount Fuji."
As he spoke, Hidehiko Kazama looked out the window and saw the roof of Building B.
Thinking of the low conversation between Amuro Toru and Jiang Xia just now, Fengjian Yingyan suspected that the two were discussing the design of the building, and couldn't help but explain:
“In fact, I originally wanted both buildings to have a view of Mount Fuji, but unfortunately, due to the shape of the land the chairman got, that idea was difficult to realize.
"But it's better this way. We have to distinguish between Building A and Building B. If the two buildings are exactly the same, then why would we need to distinguish between them? I actually don't like symmetry. If two identical things are taken apart, they will only erase each other's value. Only unique objects are the most precious!"
Jiang Xia: “…” No, I’m not very interested in the design concept of the building, and it’s about to be rebuilt anyway.
Amuro Toru had a very bad impression of Teiji Moriya, so when facing Kazama Hidehiko at this time, he couldn't help but put on a tinted glasses: the art world pays special attention to the inheritance of master and apprentice - this guy won't be like his teacher and do something like "blow up all the works that don't meet his aesthetic standards"...
Hidehiko Kazama was talking to his close friend when he suddenly felt a chill.
He shuddered suddenly. He looked around and wondered: There shouldn't be an air-conditioning device in this place. Could it be that there was a leak in the window?
…
The dedicated designer raised his head and began to carefully examine the corners of the floor-to-ceiling windows.
At this moment, as the sun completely set, the hall suddenly became quiet.
Chairman Tokiwa, dressed in his best attire, walked onto the stage.
"Thank you all for taking the time to come today. The opening ceremony of the Tokiwa Group's twin towers is about to begin."
Tokiwa Mio smiled and said, "However, before we officially start, we have designed a small entertainment program and would like to invite everyone to play a game."
Toru Amuro suddenly looked up and felt that the lines sounded strange, very much in line with Uzo's aesthetic, and very much like the prelude to a battle royale.
Fortunately, Chairman Tokiwa did not do anything like "smiling sinisterly, then lowering some rolling shutters around with a clang, trapping the guests in the venue."
She just stood on the stage and introduced loudly:
"Today is the 30th anniversary of the founding of the Tokiwa Foundation - so let's play a game of 'Guess the 30 Seconds'.
"No one is allowed to look at the watch. Start counting silently for 30 seconds. The person who has no error at all, or the person who guessed the closest..."
She raised her arm, which was covered with black gauze gloves, and gestured to the round display stand next to the stage: "You can drive this convertible sports car in front of you back home."
"!" The Young Detective Team was stunned for a moment, and suddenly became excited.
Yuantai and Mitsuhiko whispered in a corner where Jiang Xia couldn't see: "Isn't this the game we played when we went camping a few days ago? I remember Ayumi guessed it very accurately!"
Ayumi nodded happily, but suddenly remembered something and hesitated.
She quickly turned her head and looked around, as if trying to find something in the crowd.
…
Not only the children were attracted by this "game", but the adults in the hall were also amazed.
——Even if the people who were invited were of some status, this sports car was definitely a valuable prize, especially for young talents whose families were very strict and who wanted to buy a sports car but could not afford it.
Chairman Tokiwa stood elegantly on the stage.
When the whispers in the hall gradually stopped, she continued:
"However, if two or more guests guess correctly, the winner can only be determined by rock-paper-scissors. The second-place winner can ride the mountain bike away."
She smiled and pointed to a bicycle next to the sports car.
Next to the bicycles, there are some beautifully packaged small gift boxes, which are obviously participation prizes for the runners.
The young detectives peered at the bicycle, their eyes brightening: "Isn't this even better? We can't drive it anyway!"
——When we were camping, I experienced the accuracy of Ayumi's "guessing in 30 seconds". At this time, the naughty kids had already fast-forwarded to how to maintain the bicycle.
Ayumi, who was highly expected by Genta and Mitsuhiko, was becoming more and more nervous at this moment.
She looked around and muttered, "...Where is Conan?"
He glanced around, but didn't find Conan at all. Instead, he suddenly saw Jiang Xia, who was quite conspicuous in the crowd.
Ayumi slowly thought of something and her eyes paused.
She looked at Jiang Xia who was standing not far from the stage and was briefly conflicted.
…
The warm-up game will begin soon.
"Please deposit your watch here, everyone who is participating in the game. We will later give you a gem of equal value based on the value of the watch."
As Chairman Tokiwa finished speaking, her secretary Chinami Sawada walked to the front of the stage.
The secretary was holding a small basket in her hand and walked past the guests with a smile. She collected the watches of the game participants one by one and gave them a small triangular flag.
Suzuki Sonoko stood next to Jiang Xia and also received a small flag to join in the fun. She waved the flag casually and couldn't help muttering, "One watch-equivalent gem for each person? What a generous deal..."
