Chapter 1981 1989 [Grayfield Ai's Conspiracy] Ask for monthly ticket (づど)
After reading the reply email from the other party, Maya Hashimoto thought for a moment, tapped on the keyboard, found the official website of the real estate agency, and then searched for other information online.
As he looked at it, he frowned: "This agency doesn't seem to be very formal. There are so many bad reviews, and many people say that he disrupts business. Is it really reliable? Why doesn't that lady find a better agency to entrust it to?"
But think about it, the ruins of this crystal restaurant are located in the sea, in such a location, even sharks would not be able to help but give a 1-star bad review. What's more, there are three bodies buried underneath.
It’s easy to imagine that this place won’t be sold for much money, and it might even damage the company’s reputation. A normal real estate agent might not necessarily take on such a haunted house.
"I hope the intermediary in charge is an honest man and doesn't engage in thieves or contract fraud or anything like that." A certain instinct of Hashimoto Maya was stirred, but he suppressed it with difficulty: encountering a profiteer in the organization meant he could make a small fortune, either by taking the evidence to blackmail him or by towing him to the bottom of Tokyo Bay.
...Unfortunately, he is now just a detective assistant. He must be a good person and smile at any partner he meets.
Maya Hashimoto remained polite and replied to the agent named "Masatsugu Harida" and made an appointment.
Zhang Tianzhengci replied quickly, barely using honorifics to address the client, but his tone was casual, and it was clear that he didn't think anyone was really willing to pay for this piece of land in the sea:
[I'm so sorry, I'm very busy lately.
[If you really want to, come to Umeda Cinema tomorrow at noon. I should be able to spare some time around lunch.]
Hashimoto Maya: “…”
...I actually used the little time free during lunch to deal with him!
He didn't even mention a specific time period, obviously wanting him to ask first... This guy really isn't worried at all that this land can't be sold!
"I haven't encountered a store that treated me so badly in years." Hashimoto Maya sighed, "I have to start from scratch after changing my job. What a cruel workplace."
…
The next morning.
Jiang Xia originally wanted to take a look around the detective agency to see if there was any scene of iced tea versus coffee.
However, after breakfast, when he was about to leave Dr. Agasa's house, Haibara Ai stopped him.
She put something thin in Jiang Xia's hand: "A little gift."
"What is this?" Jiang Xia looked down and found that it was a movie ticket, which allowed him to watch any movie at Umeda Cinema.
He looked at Huiyuan Ai: "Why did you suddenly think of buying this?"
Huiyuan Ai: "I won it in a lottery."
Jiang Xia: “…” Why did you start too?
But it started well, and I continued: "I will definitely go."
Huihara Ai jumped onto the stool next to him and sat down: "I remember you always said that you wanted to go to the movies with those kids. There are more movie tickets than just the one you have in your hand. I will use the others to invite them over. I just heard that the management of that cinema is in disarray. If anyone makes trouble, it's time for you to take action."
Jiang Xia seemed to like those kids very much, but they had some misunderstandings about Jiang Xia... The misunderstandings were caused by lack of communication, so this was a good opportunity to improve them.
——Although Jiang Xia does like to hit people a little, the people he hits are basically bad guys, so Jiang Xia is a good guy. I don’t know when those three kids will understand this.
As Huibara Ai thought about it, she held her chin with her hand and sighed.
…
Although she felt it was difficult to resolve this misunderstanding in one go, since she had nothing else to do, Haibara Ai decided to give it a try, at least to take a good first step.
So in the morning, when the three naughty kids gathered together as usual, ready to make trouble... and prepare to maintain the peace in Beika Town, they were surprised to find that Haibara Ai and Conan also appeared here.
Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya couldn't help but ask, "Why did you take the initiative to gather here?"
These two overly mature elementary school students, although they are also members of their Junior Detective Team, have always lacked team spirit and have to be urged many times before they are willing to play with them. Especially Huiyuan Ai, she prefers to stay at home on her days off and rarely goes out with them.
Who would have thought that today, Haibara Ai arrived earlier than Conan.
Conan turned to look at her, somewhat surprised.
Huihara Ai reached into her small bag and took out a few movie tickets: "It's a rare occasion that it's Teitan Elementary School's school anniversary today, so we should celebrate it in a more formal way - let's go to the movies."
“Wow~!”
There were free movies. And according to the description on the ticket, you can choose any movie you want to watch. The three children's eyes lit up immediately.
Conan yawned in boredom. What was the point of watching a children's film with a child? "You guys go ahead. I want to go read..."
"You come too!" Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya and Genta Kojima carried him to the movie street without any explanation, "The spirit of the Junior Detective Team cannot be tarnished, we must act together today!"
Conan, the shortest one: "..."
…
A few children pulled each other to the movie street and started to check out the movies available for today.
Soon the three real kids agreed: "Gomera! Of course we have to watch Gomera!"
Conan: “…”
He tried to salvage this bad day by pointing to another promotional poster on the wall: "Aren't we the Junior Detective Team? In that case, shouldn't we go watch The Devil's Legend Murder Case?"
The three children were startled and turned to look at the poster.
Then I was startled by the gloomy painting style above.
"This is too much brainwork." Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya pretended to be calm, "It's a holiday, of course I have to rest - it depends on Godmera."
There was a conflict of opinion, and Yoshida Ayumi looked at Haibara Ai and asked for her opinion: "Ai, what do you want to see?"
Haibara Ai was looking around, not knowing what she was looking for.
When she heard the kids asking, she looked back at the movie list and said, "Einstein's Glory and Trouble. It's a good one."
“…”
The five people had three different opinions. Conan wanted to watch them separately, but the children disagreed.
Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya thought for a moment and said, "How about this, rock-paper-scissors, the one who wins in the end decides."
Five children stood in a circle: "Rock, Scissors - Paper!"
What a coincidence, I stretched out my hand and saw five scissors and one rock.
"Huh? Why is there an extra hand?" Kojima Genta scratched his head in confusion, and when he looked up following the hand that was positioned higher, the face of a famous detective jumped into his eyes.
Jiang Xia held the ice cream in one hand and retracted the other hand that was clenched into a fist. He seemed to be in a good mood.
He took out the movie ticket from his pocket and shook it: "I won, so you should listen to me?"
Three kids: “?!”
