Chapter 457 I Understand the Truth, but (Happy New Year to Everyone~)

"It's very simple, cooperate with us and assassinate Mata Gong."

Kikuchi Reiko was stunned, and then he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "You are really here for Mata Kung Fu."

Xin Fan nodded slightly, with a hint of coldness in his eyes: "I need you to provide the specific time and itinerary of Mata Gong's arrival in Japan. After the assassination is successful, our people will naturally stay away from your son and will never show up. This You can rest assured.”

Reiko Kikuchi laughed self-deprecatingly: "What's the use even if I don't worry? I can only do this no matter how worried I am."

Nobuhiro said with satisfaction: "It's a pleasure to cooperate."

“A pleasure to work with.”

Opposite was a beautiful face that was much darker.

After the matter was settled, Nobuhiro no longer wanted to stay here any longer. He rejected Reiko Kikuchi's suggestion to take a night's rest, abandoned Mouri Kogoro in advance, and left Sakura Xueyu alone.

The night outside the car window is beautiful, but behind this beautiful city, there is too much dirt and filth hidden behind it.

Nobuhiro turned on his phone and sent an email to Bourbon.

[Mezcal: Investigate someone for me. ]

[Bourbon: I'm back in the United States, and I don't have time. ]

Nobuhiro looked at this email, which was replied almost instantly, and fell into deep thought for a while.

How false the content of Bourbon's reply is is less important.

The thing is - everyone he contacted seemed to be great at responding promptly, everyone from the gentleman to the gin to the bourbon. He is the only one who is different...

Hey, could it be that he really went too far?

I vaguely remember that four years ago, as a Scot, I was not so arrogant.

Nobuhiro thought deeply, but he was still typing very fast.

Two minutes later, Bourbon received a second email from Mezcal.

[Mezcal: Reiko Kikuchi, the boss lady of Sakura Xueyu. I need to know her information before coming to Tokyo, including but not limited to her background, family of origin, education history, relationship history, etc. ]

Of course Nobushige sent someone to investigate after receiving this mission, but the information he obtained was basically after Reiko Kikuchi came to Tokyo. Her experience before coming to Tokyo was completely blank.

Bourbon is an elite member of the intelligence team and may be able to find out other things.

Maybe Reiko Kikuchi had used other names, maybe she had traveled to many places, and Nobuhiro wanted to know these things. Only in this way can he truly hold that woman in his hands, otherwise as long as there is the slightest accident, the mission will fail at least, or he will be involved in it at worst.

…

After going home and resting for a night, Nobuhiro reported to the Mori Detective Agency on time the next day.

It's just that Mouri Kogoro is probably still immersed in the gentle land at this time. There is only Mouri Lan in the office, cleaning.

As a member of the office, Nobushige quickly took the mop from Mao Lilan's hand: "Let me do it. You should go to school today, right?"

Mao Lilan was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Is Mr. Asano too busy recently? Today is a rare day off."

Nobushige glanced at the calendar and found that it was really a day off.

Mao Lilan looked towards the door and asked doubtfully: "Are you the only one? Where is my father?"

"Mr. Mori should be back soon. I had something to deal with last night and left before midnight."

"That's it." Mao Lilan breathed a sigh of relief, but soon became a little annoyed, "My father, he is so unruly, he can just go to that kind of place by himself, why? And dragging you along?”

Nobushige just smiled and did not tell Mao Lilan that it was actually him who proposed it.

Well, maintaining appearance is very important for a gentleman. As for whether Mouri Kogoro will betray him...seriously, even if Moori Kogoro tells the truth, will Maori Lan believe it?

"Ouch! Asano, you are here!"

Along with a familiar voice, the door of the office was opened from the outside, and a strong smell of alcohol hit his face.

Mao Lilan's face suddenly darkened, and she put her hands on her hips, brewing a storm of anger.

However, the dazed Mouri Kogoro didn't even realize the danger was coming. He grabbed Nobushige and said, "It's such a pity that you weren't here last night! Mrs. Kikuchi actually found me a lot of fine wine, including all types, and paired it with It’s so beautiful to have beautiful women and music! It’s like heaven…”

"Dad-" Mao Lilan slammed his fist into Mao Li Kogoro's desk.

The poor desk just cracked in half.

Mouri Kogoro was stunned and looked at Mao Lilan: "Ah, Xiaolan, why are you here? Am I not with Sakura Snow Yu? Oh, Asano, don't leave, Mrs. Kikuchi thinks very highly of you... …”

Mao Lilan narrowed her eyes, suppressed the rising anger, and entered the stage of accumulating power.

Nobuhiro immediately flashed aside to avoid being accidentally injured by the furious Mao Lilan.

With such a daughter who is extremely capable of fighting, there is a sense of security, but at the same time, who can deny the danger of the daughter herself?

As for Reiko Kikuchi, he didn't want that woman's high praise at all.

Just when Mao Lilan couldn't help but want to smash the table again, Conan and Haibara Ai appeared at the door of the office.

They were all dressed up and seemed ready to go out.

"Brother Asano?" Seeing Nobushige, Conan immediately smiled brightly, "We made an appointment with the doctor to watch the victory parade of the Spirit Team. Brother Asano, will you come with us?"

Spirit team?

Nobuhiro didn't realize what it was for a while. It was only after Mao Lilan reminded him that he remembered the report he saw on the news a few days ago. The Spirit Team seemed to have won the Japanese football championship.

But...is this kind of thing worthy of a grand parade? Not a World Cup champion.

So Nobuhiro politely declined: "I'm not a fan of the Spirit Team, so I won't go. Besides, I remember the news said that the Spirit Team's parade will be broadcast live, and you can watch it at home."

"After all, watching TV and having a live experience are different." Conan said with a smile, "Then let's go first!"

"Um."

Haibara Ai followed Conan silently and left the Maori Detective Agency.

From the beginning to the end, she never looked at Xinfan, nor said a word to him.

Miyano Shiho is not such a fragile person. She is probably more afraid of saying the wrong thing and causing harm to the people around her.

Even Mao Lilan noticed the abnormality of Haihara Ai. She worriedly said to Nobu Fan: "Did something happen to Xiao Ai recently? She slept with me last night. She had been suffering from insomnia in the first half of the night, and then finally I fell asleep and woke up with nightmares.”

Nobuhiro was a little silent.

Mao Lilan warned again: "If the problem is serious, you'd better take her to see a psychiatrist. I know you don't like hospitals, but Xiao Ai is still young, and her physical and psychological problems must be taken seriously."

Nobuhiro was silent again.

He understands the truth, but what does this have to do with him not liking the hospital...?
