Chapter 2787 2799 [Vodka: Ouzo is so good! ]
Vodka turned on the radio and listened expectantly.
Hard work pays off, and before long, he heard a report - there was a minor car accident on the road behind him, and the traffic police were handling it. The host reminded listeners to take a detour.
"Did that guy really get stopped by Uzo?"
Vodka felt a little happy. "Uzo does some good things sometimes. He is just as sensible as my brother said. He knows how to unite against the outside world at the critical moment... Hmm? Wait, that's not right!"
Halfway through the praise, Vodka suddenly came to his senses: "But think about it carefully, if that guy hadn't called me suddenly, I would have slipped away quietly just now. Akai wouldn't have noticed me at all, and I wouldn't have been so nervous all the way.
"He created the trouble, and he solved it himself, and I am grateful to him for that..."
This situation made Vodka suddenly alert, and the favorability he had just gained was instantly reset to zero: "It was a close call, I almost fell into his sweet trap like those idiots who were devoted to him! Fortunately, I know his true nature... Come to think of it, it's no wonder those guys were fooled one after another - even I almost fell into the trap. Those of them who know nothing about 'Uzo' will only be in a more difficult situation."
With a little secret joy, Vodka did not dare to stay any longer. He took the opportunity to speed up and rushed back to Tokyo cautiously.
…
A few minutes ago, he was 2 kilometers behind.
Akai Shuichi looked at the car that met his around the corner, then suddenly had a flat tire, hit the mountain wall, and bounced back to scratch his luxury car: "..."
For a moment, he wanted to just step on the accelerator and run over it and continue his pursuit.
...But reason told him that if he drove on the road with a car with a crooked front bumper, he would only attract everyone's attention, including of course the rats in the dark.
This operation has to be suspended for the time being.
This small action, which did not cause much damage but was extremely disruptive, made Akai Shuichi jump and he couldn't help but feel murderous.
However, as a mature adult, he certainly would not let such emotions affect his actions.
Soon, Shuichi Akai's eyes fell on the luxury car owner who ran out of the car in a daze.
"I'm so sorry, my car broke down again." The car owner looked at Shuichi Akai's car that was knocked crooked, feeling a little guilty, and slowed down his tone, "Don't worry, I will compensate you for all your losses - but your car should still be drivable, can you please take me home first? I have something else to do tonight, so I can't stay here all the time."
Akai Shuichi: “…”Again?
He looked at the car owner and asked, "Does your car often have accidents?"
"Not often, but the repair shop has been slacking off lately. I've decided to sue them, and there will be a result soon." The car owner said, opening his car door and getting in the passenger seat. "Go down that road, my home is not far from here on the mountain."
Akai Shuichi looked at his extremely natural movements: "......?" When did I agree to take you home?
...But he didn't refuse in the end. He had nothing to do anyway, so he might as well see if this guy blocked his car by accident or intentionally.
Thinking of this, Shuichi Akai started driving before the traffic police arrived and drove in the direction indicated by the car owner.
…
"My name is Kosaku Horita." The luxury car owner sat in the passenger seat for a while before coming to his senses from the car accident. He felt in his pocket and handed Akai Shuichi two business cards. "The one below is my butler. You can contact him for follow-up compensation matters. If you are not satisfied with the handling, just call the number on the other business card and tell me."
Shuichi Akai took the business card and saw the position on it, his eyes moved slightly: President of Horita Heavy Industries... If I remember correctly, this company is not small. Has Usa's tentacles already extended to the business world?
He put away the business card and drove along the winding mountain road at the fork all the way to the top of the mountain.
Soon, a luxurious villa appeared in front of them.
In the vast garden, an elderly middle-aged man in work clothes was diligently tidying the pool.
Seeing a car with a crooked bumper driving into the garden, he wiped the sweat off his forehead, stood up and looked over in confusion.
Akai Shuichi stopped the car, and President Horita pushed the door open and said to the housekeeper who was looking at this side: "Yamauchi, come here for a moment."
"Master!" Butler Yamauchi came running over in surprise. He looked at the strange car and then at his employer, "What are you doing..."
President Horita: "My car had a flat tire on the way and I can't drive anymore. If it weren't for this gentleman who brought me here, I would still be waiting for a tow truck at the foot of the mountain. But I scratched the bumper of his car, so please take care of it and compensate for it or repair it."
"Okay!" Butler Yamauchi looked at Akai Shuichi who had just stepped out of the car, "I'm sorry to bother you. Please go inside and sit down. I'll take care of the rest."
President Horita nodded with satisfaction and looked towards the house: "By the way, are Koichi and the others here?"
"We're here." Butler Yamauchi said, "They left work early and went home. They were worried when they saw that you were late."
President Horita snorted coldly: "They didn't even call me when they were worried. I think they're just hoping I'll get killed in a car accident."
As he said this he remembered something and turned to Akai Shuichi, "By the way, I'm going to have a birthday party tonight. It's a simple family dinner. Since you're here, why don't you stay for dinner as well? It's to express my apology to you."
…
When Shuichi Akai inexplicably had an additional schedule of eating a banquet.
In the hospital on the other side.
Jiang Xia called Kogoro Mori and told him about Ran Mori, and hinted that a driver was needed here.
I thought I would have to wait for a while for this neighbor uncle, but when I asked about the location, Maori Kogoro actually said, "It will be there in 10 minutes."
"?" Jiang Xia looked at his phone, "Did Dr. Agasa develop some new acceleration technology?"
Maori Kogoro snorted: "Who would dare to use his technologies that explode or go supersonic? I just happened to accept a commission from a nearby place."
"Commission?" Jiang Xia became interested. "What commission?"
Maori Kogoro saw through his thoughts at a glance: "Don't even think about it. That bastard client lied to me and said he had a life-threatening case for me to handle, but when I got here, he just asked me to help him find a cat - just a cat, and he tricked me into running all the way here. This is really too much!"
Conan also noticed that they were on the phone. When he heard this, he couldn't help but come over and said, "But Uncle Maori, you usually take on tasks to find cats and dogs."
