Chapter 522: Grabbing Someone’s Life in Person, Right?

"Ah, well, that's so weird."

Conan, who had been eavesdropping, noticed something strange, "If it were kept at home, uncle, you wouldn't go out to find a detective. After all, it was your wife's watch before she was alive. Since you know it is at home, then look for it." You can definitely find it if you look for it.”

"My wife was a very confused person during her lifetime. She even spent a long time looking for lipstick under magazines. In fact, she was looking for that watch before she died..."

Gouda scratched his ears in embarrassment: "Speaking of which, I'm even more confused than her, so it's impossible for me to find the watch, so I can only ask the detective to help me find it. "

"So this is ah……"

Conan smiled, with a hint of suspicion deep in his eyes.

Since his wife had lost this watch before her death, why did he say that he had forgotten it?

There must be something fishy behind this...

"Ahem!"

Fujino coughed lightly, fearing that Conan would use his client's brains again, so he interrupted: "Now that the entrustment is mostly clear, let's talk about the entrustment fee next!"

"The normal price for a found object commission fee here starts at 300,000 yen, but considering that the thing you are looking for is a bit too simple, the discount is 150,000 yen."

As he spoke, Fujino took out a calculator from his pocket, put it on the table, and started counting: "If we give another discount, the commission fee is 100,000 yen. However, depending on the changes in the commission situation, the price Maybe a little more.”

What Conan noticed, he also noticed.

I had nothing to do, so I went to find a detective, and then I ran into a lot of trouble, and finally got involved in a murder case.

Fujino was not surprised by this kind of client.

It doesn't matter if there is any conspiracy. For him, the value of the client determines his stubbornness.

"One hundred thousand yen..."

Goda Hideo was stunned when he heard this, and an unnatural look flashed across his face.

"It's already the lowest price."

Fujino took a sip of green tea and said calmly: "I usually don't accept requests that are less than 100,000 yen."

This is not a lie. After all, he is now considered a famous detective. Even if it is a simple commission, it is impossible to charge tens of thousands of yen to get it done. That would be too cheap.

Fujino spends most of his time watching people order their food. For the poor, his discounts are still very strong. For the rich... he will try to raise the price as much as possible within the range of oil and water.

But if you really can't even pay the minimum price, then there is really no other way. When entrusting a detective, you must always be prepared to pay a few W.

This is the normal state of the entire market. If it were any lower, the detective would really not have to live.

"Oh... I'm really troubling you."

Hideo Hideo sighed: "I'll go to someone else's place and have a look."

"Go on your way."

Fujino stood up and politely saw off the guests.

"Hey, uncle! How about you give me your wife's watch?"

For this client who gave up the commission because of the price, Conan did not intend to give up. He jumped down from his seat and stopped Hideo Goda.

As a hard-nosed detective, he naturally has an inquiring mind about this kind of thing.

He is very curious!

"Don't worry, uncle!"

"There is nothing wrong with leaving this matter to our young detective team!"

“And we don’t take any money!”

Before Conan could say anything, the little ones seemed to have smelled the smell of the case. They were afraid that Conan would take the credit, so they came over directly, patted their chests and made repeated assurances.

"..."

Fujino was silent for a while as he looked at the enthusiastic guys who were so enthusiastic that they were helping others for free.

Although he also knew that it was these children who noticed that this guy was a little embarrassed, but... he still felt like he was being dissed.

And you guys took away the business before even sending the person away? !

Good guy, he used to get someone involved... He got involved today? !

Fujino severely condemns this malicious behavior of working for nothing and getting involved!

However, these few are not detectives in the strict sense. Helplessly, Fujino sighed and suggested: "In that case, you and I will go take a look."

Ayumi turned around and blinked: "Brother Fujino, do you want to help too?"

"Yeah, I always feel a little worried about you guys going alone."

Fujino explained, but he was not lying; although the cases handled by Juvenile Bai Gai Tuan were free of charge, the things they charged were a little more outrageous - for example, human life.

From the time he accepted these commissions, Fujino had already foreseen the scene: Ayumi was kidnapped, Mitsuhiko Genta was soy sauce, and Conan turned the tide.

"I may not be able to take you around Tokyo in the morning."

Turning back, Fujino said apologetically to Ooka Momiji, and glanced at Conan who was a few hours away: "Otherwise, I might be regarded as an unscrupulous snobbish detective."

Conan: "..."

Isn't it?

"It doesn't matter. Actually, there's nothing good to see in Tokyo."

Ooka Hongye shook his head slightly, then asked again: "But can I go with you for this commission?"

"You want to go too?"

"Um."

Ooka Hongye nodded slightly and said truthfully: "I want to know what your daily life is like."

In fact, she has no interest in visiting Tokyo. After all, for Kyoto people, Tokyo's cultural heritage is almost equivalent to that of a small place in the countryside.

Rather than visiting Tokyo, she wanted to learn about Fujino's detective life.

Fujino didn't have any objections to this proposal. They originally planned to go to Tokyo together, but now they went to the client's house instead... All in all, it wasn't a big problem.

…………

Under the leadership of the other party, several Fujino puppies and a rich woman went to the other party's home.

Fujino stood downstairs in a five-story duplex apartment and raised his eyes to take a look: "Can someone living in an apartment like this not even be able to spare 100,000 yen?"

Goda lives here, surrounded by parks, convenience stores, and bus stops.

Although it is not as valuable as a high-rise apartment, judging from the location, it is quite expensive. The price should be more than 20 million yen.

Logically speaking, if you can afford to live in such an apartment, one hundred thousand yen should be just a sprinkling of water, and it won't be impossible to get out.

"sorry for disturbance!"

Gouda opened the door of his house, and several little ones greeted him politely at the entrance. Ayumi was the first to put on his slippers and enter the room. He looked at the red bouquet in the vase on the small cabinet and sighed: "It's so beautiful. flower!"

"Pink carnations."

Ooka Hongye walked up and took a sniff: "But it looks like it has been there for a long time, and the petals are a little withered."

"These are the flowers my wife planted when she died three weeks ago."

Goda nodded slightly and replied: "Although I change the water every day, it really can't last long."
