Outside Yingsheng Hotel, various brand-name luxury cars were parked, and brightly dressed and successful people from the upper class walked towards Yingsheng Hotel.
Although she is just a princess from a royal family whose name she has never heard of, she is still a princess, and she is a European princess. For the Japanese people who have always been eager to "leave Asia and join Europe", she is already someone worth fawning over.
There is no way. Although Japan is the world's third largest economy (it was the world's second largest economy for a long time) and a top-ranked developed country, in the minds of most Japanese people, it is the "lighthouse" of the world. ">Advanced European countries>Latter-developed Japan>Other "poor" countries in Asia. This kind of superiority-inferiority relationship has been engraved in their hearts. When facing European and American countries, they naturally have a psychological disadvantage.
In addition to the guests, police officers from the Metropolitan Police Department patrolled around the hotel and surrounded the Yingsheng Hotel.
This was just on the ground. In the night sky, several helicopters were hovering, and searchlights swept over them from time to time, as if they were facing a formidable enemy.
The attitude of the Metropolitan Police Department is very clear. Tonight, apart from the guests holding invitations, not even a mosquito will be able to fly into the Yingsheng Hotel!
Kasumigaoka Shiha, who was wearing a formal dress, got out of Ryoko Mikado's car. Shiha Kasumigaoka bent down to the driver's seat window and asked Ryoko Mikado: "Teacher Ryoko, are you sure you don't want to come to the banquet? I have an invitation." , there are two partner quotas.”
Ryoko Mikado smiled and shook his head: "Forget it, I'm not interested in this kind of banquet. Shiyu, just have a good time. When the banquet is about to end, you inform me and I will come to pick you up!"
Kasumigaoka Shiyu was a little helpless, but still nodded.
In this case, what is there about Kasumigaoka Shiyu’s stage fright?
"Really, Junior and Lala, they threw the invitation to me and they didn't know where they went... That's too much!"
Kasumigaoka Shiha couldn't help but complain after Mikado Ryoko drove away.
Yes, Saphilia gave the invitation to Lala, but Lala gave the invitation to Kasumigaoka Shiyu and asked Kasumigaoka Shiyu to attend the banquet, but she and Yan Kai disappeared somewhere.
It's a pity that the other people in Mingshan Apartment are not interested in the banquet like Ryoko Mikado, and Erina Nakiri has not yet recovered from her depression and is also unwilling to come, so Kasumigaoka Shiu can only attend the banquet alone. It's really lonely when I think about it...
But it was just lonely, and she was not nervous about attending such a high-end banquet alone. Now Kasumigaoka Shiyu has no stage fright at all when facing such a high-end banquet.
Come to think of it, I have a close friendship with Commander-in-Chief Totsuki, chatting and laughing with the second young lady of the Suzuki family, and living with me. She is the same princess of the same country as Princess Mira, the protagonist of tonight's banquet, and she is as little-known as Compared with the Kingdom of Vesbania, the Kingdom of Debeluk is a newly rising technological power, and its level is much higher than that of the Kingdom of Vesbania. To be honest, Princess Mira is not even as noble as Lara.
Just as he was about to walk into Yingsheng Hotel, a familiar voice came from behind: "Shiyu!"
Kasumigaoka Shiyu immediately turned around happily when she heard this voice: "Zezi!"
Busujima Saeko was wearing a kimono and ran up to Kasumigaoka Shiu with small steps. Her clogs stepped on the ground and made a rapid "clack" sound.
"Great, luckily you are here, otherwise I would be worried that this banquet would be boring!"
Busujima Saeko held Kasumigaoka Shiu's hand, her face full of joy.
Kasumigaoka Shiu smiled at first, and then found that Busujima Saeko seemed to be missing an on-hook, and couldn't help but curiously asked: "Hey, where is Rei?"
"Ling? Ling is staying at the doctor's house tonight."
Busujima Saeko smiled.
Only then did Kasumigaoka Shiu remember that not only Ling, but also Haibara Ai and the three little ones from the "Youth Detective Team" were also spending the night at the doctor's house tonight. It seemed like there was some kind of team building activity, right?
"Then let's go in together!"
Kasumigaoka Shiu held Busujima Saeko's hand and said.
Even if she didn't have stage fright, Kasumigaoka Shiyu felt much better immediately being able to be with someone in an unfamiliar environment.
Under the influence of the invitation, Kasumigaoka Shiu and Busujima Saeko entered the Sakuramori Hotel smoothly.
As soon as he entered the hotel door, Kasumigaoka Shiyu immediately discovered his old acquaintances Mao Lilan and Suzuki Sonoko. Mao Lilan was accompanied by a little on-screen person as usual - Conan.
"Senior Shiu, Senior Seiko, here, here!"
Suzuki Sonoko also discovered the two of them, and immediately waved to Kasumigaoka Shiu and Busujima Saeko happily.
Kasumigaoka Shiu and Busujima Saeko stepped forward quickly, and then saw Suzuki Sonoko smiling strangely: "Shiu-senpai, Saeko-senpai, are you also here to see the 'Princess Limited Edition' Ran?"
"Yuanzi!" Mao Lilan beside Suzuki Yuanzi said angrily.
Originally, Mao Lilan was not qualified to be invited to a banquet of this level, and Mao Lilan himself was not interested in such a banquet. He felt very depressed and uncomfortable, so he might as well practice karate.
But because Kasumigaoka Shiha sent a group photo of Princess Mira during the day, looking at Princess Mira who looked very similar to Mao Lilan, Suzuki Sonoko became playful and dragged Mao Lilan to force her to participate. Tonight's reception is not allowed - as the second young lady of the Suzuki family, it is of course a piece of cake for Suzuki Sonoko to bring a friend to the reception.
"Xiaolan, what's the point of being embarrassed! Besides, today's dress is very beautiful. Remember to compare it with that princess later!"
The culprit, Kasumigaoka Shiyu, also laughed strangely.
"That's right, let me tell you, that stinky-faced princess is not as beautiful as our Xiaolan!"
Suzuki Sonoko hugged Mao Li Landao.
For tonight's reception, Suzuki Sonoko forced Mao Lilan to spend an entire afternoon dressing up in order to outdo Princess Mira.
Although Mao Lilan has no competitiveness in this regard, Suzuki Sonoko will not allow her best friend to lose to a foreign woman.
"It's really..."
Mao Lilan had a wry smile on her face, but she really couldn't defeat Suzuki Sonoko.
Kasumigaoka Shiyu glanced at Conan who was following Mao Lilan, and asked Conan: "Conan, Xiao Ai and Ling are spending the night at the doctor's house tonight, why did you come here? It's not good to be unsociable!"
Conan scratched his head, and then said in a coy voice: "But I also want to see the princess! When the reception is over, I will go to Dr. Ali's house!"
"Don't worry about this brat, let's enter the venue quickly!"
Suzuki Sonoko held Conan's head and said.
This jealous person, when he saw that she dressed Xiaolan up so beautifully and attended a banquet with many celebrities, celebrities, entertainers and nobles, he immediately remembered that she had to attend the reception with her.
Several people gathered together and talked and laughed, and the staff led the four people to the reception venue.
Along the way, in addition to the staff of Sakuramori Hotel, Kasumigaoka Shiyu also saw many people wearing black clothes with tense expressions.
There was a faint aura of chilling coming from everyone, as if they would jump up and pounce on the enemy the next moment, making Kasumigaoka Shiyu swallow her saliva.
"Who are these people?"
Kasumigaoka Shiyu whispered.
"It seems that they are the guards brought by Princess Mila. I heard that the Metropolitan Police Department is only responsible for Princess Mila's surroundings. The Sakura Hotel was booked by the Vespagna royal family yesterday. In addition to some service staff, the security guards inside are also All were replaced by the escorts accompanying Princess Mila."
Suzuki Sonoko answered Kasumigaoka Shiu's doubts.
As the second lady of the Suzuki Zaibatsu, Suzuki Sonoko looks carefree, but in fact she is very well-informed.
"Such a big deal?"
Kasumigaoka Shiyu was a little surprised.
This was not the first time that members of foreign royal families came to Tokyo. Kasumigaoka Shiu couldn't remember the previous visits by foreign royal families that had caused such a big fuss.
"There's a reason for that."
Suzuki Sonoko lowered her voice and said to Kasumigaoka Shiu and the others: "It is said that the person who came to visit Japan this time was supposed to be Queen Sacra of the Kingdom of Vespania, so she booked her stay at Sakuramori Hotel, because Sakura The name of Sheng Hotel is the same as Sacra, so Queen Sacra is very fond of this hotel.”
"I see……"
Xia Zhiqiu Shiyu suddenly realized.
Generally speaking, Japanese officials often choose the Tokyo Imperial Hotel to entertain foreign guests. Although the Yingsheng Hotel is also a top hotel in Japan, there is still a big gap compared with the Tokyo Imperial Hotel. Princess Mira chose to stay at the Yingsheng Hotel. Unexpectedly, there is such a reason behind this.
"Since it was Queen Sacra's choice, why didn't Queen Sacra come and instead her daughter Princess Mila came?"
Kasumigaoka Shiyu asked.
Suzuki Sonoko looked around and lowered her voice: "Because Queen Sacra passed away not long ago. During a hunting activity, Queen Sacra unfortunately died of Prince Gil's shotgun misfire. Prince Gil committed suicide because of guilt. Mira The princess was originally the second in line to the throne, but now she suddenly became the first in line. Many people in the Kingdom of Vespania are dissatisfied with this girl who is not yet twenty years old becoming the queen. It is said that there are currently demonstrations in the country. My father said that Princess Mila may have taken refuge in Japan when she came to Japan this time."
"hiss……"
After listening to Suzuki Sonoko's explanation, Kasumigaoka Shiu, Busujima Saeko, and Maori Ran all took a deep breath.
Princess Mira in the previous photo had a cold face and looked very difficult to get along with, so the three of them actually had a bad impression of Princess Mira. Who knew that she was not a "Sima face", but a "Sima face"? Really...well, I suddenly feel a little sorry for Princess Mira!
"My mother and brother have just passed away, but they still have to come to a foreign country. It's no wonder that Princess Mila is in a bad mood..."
Mao Lilan sighed.
"But, does this have anything to do with having so many guards in the hotel?"
Kasumigaoka Shiyu asked.
"Stop talking about it, there are a lot of voices in the country that are against Princess Mila. Some people even think that the monarchy is no longer suitable for the current Kingdom of Vespania and should be abolished. Therefore, Princess Mila's bodyguard said that during this period, It is very likely that there will be an assassination against Princess Mira, so there are so many guards to protect Princess Mira."
Suzuki Sonoko explained.
"I see!"
This time Kasumigaoka Shiyu completely understood.
"It's more than that!" Suzuki Sonoko said, "It is said that when Queen Sacra was still alive, the Kingdom of Vespania and Japan were negotiating an important cooperation. It was because of that cooperation that Queen Sacra prepared to visit Japan. , my mother and brother came to Japan not long after their death, I am afraid that Princess Mira also wants to exchange Japan’s support for her with that agreement."
"It's a political thing again..."
A girl under twenty years old was involved in politics. Kasumigaoka Shiyu felt that Princess Mira was really pitiful.
Then I thought about Lala running away from home because she didn't want a political marriage. I also felt that although these princesses lived a glamorous life, they couldn't help themselves most of the time, and they might not be as comfortable as a commoner. At least Lala is very satisfied with her current life. She has not mentioned going to the Central Plains recently. She just makes some inventions and blows them up every day, or hangs out with everyone. Her life is extremely happy.
Speaking of Lala...
The invitation was obviously for Lala, but Lala threw the invitation to him, and then ran away with Yan Kai and disappeared. I don’t know where the two of them went. They were unhappy!
Walking down the aisle, a group of people in black suits came towards me. They looked like guards. But strangely, one of them was an old man who was hunched over, and one of them was actually sitting in a wheelchair.
Uh, these old ones, the crippled ones, are all guards, too?
Xia Zhiqiu Shiyu couldn't help but think.
But Busujima Saeko looked at the group of people walking towards her with a solemn expression. She felt extremely strong murderous aura as she walked on these people. There is no doubt that these people are masters who have experienced hundreds of battles and had countless lives on their hands. .
Does a mere princess need so many experts to protect her?
Busujima Saeko wondered in her heart.
There are so many masters who can compete head-on even against the established mechanized troops. I'm afraid it would be no problem to launch a small war, right?
This group of men in black and Kasumigaoka Shiyu and others passed by. One of the men with his hands in his pockets suddenly lit up. He looked at Kasumigaoka Shiyu and others and said: "Oh, they all say that Japan has many beauties, and it is true! Suddenly I just met three beautiful little girls, it seems God doesn’t want to find nothing in Japan!”
"You three little girls, could you please tell me your phone numbers? When I'm done working, I'll come and play with you!"
The man was considered very handsome, but his frivolous attitude greatly increased his "gasp". Kasumigaoka Shiyu and others couldn't help but take a step back, and then left quickly.
Kasumigaoka Shiyu and others ran away, and the man looked at their backs with regret: "Hey, it's a pity that I have to work, otherwise I really want to catch up!"
"Genos, I advise you not to do this, it will cause death."
Xiaoli, the NO.X in "Guardian of Time", said to the man.
Being good at intelligence gathering, he naturally knew Kasumigaoka Shiyu and others. They were the people around Yan Kai, so it would be a bit too long for Genos to strike up a conversation with them.
"It's okay, I usually take safety measures!"
Genos gave a very careful smile.
"..."
Forget it, let this guy with a head full of pornographic waste die.
Xiaoli said in his heart as he saw that there was no way to save Janis.
In the venue, Yan Kai, who had no invitation but easily bypassed all the guards and entered the hotel, saw Kasumigaoka Shiyu and others entering the venue from a distance. Mao Lilan was also followed by Conan, and he immediately frowned.
Whenever Conan appeared in such a situation, he would take several lives, but he had seen the defense layout on site. Although it was in vain to him, to ordinary people, it was still extremely strict, especially There are cameras everywhere, and the cunning murderer may not have much room to show off.
Thinking about it more carefully, the most likely incident that will happen at Yingsheng Hotel may be the battle I intend to have with the "Guardian of Time". In other words, is the murderer actually me?
"Forget it, when I do it later, I'll try to be gentler!"
Yan Kai sighed.
