"What kind of party?" Ye Gengyi asked in confusion.
"The Mud Conference was organized by the wife of the previous president."
Belmod glanced at his watch:
"The location is in Kyoto. At this time... after preparing the disguises of the two of us, it's still time to go. How about it? Aren't you curious about the target of Bourbon's mission?"
Oh, I got it.
This woman was dissatisfied with Bourbon's unauthorized investigation of the Maori Detective Agency, so she also wanted to sabotage the other party's mission.
It’s really a snake-hearted thing...
Ye Gengyi said decisively:
"Not going."
"Don't refuse so quickly."
Belmode said in a bewitching tone:
"Let me tell you another news. Busushima Kiriko was not invited to this gathering. There might be a lot of fun to watch. Find out the internal situation of the gathering as soon as possible. If you are lucky, your funds that have been temporarily suppressed will be But it’s settled.”
oh? Maybe you can also see Bourbon and observe his strength...
Ye Gengyi nodded with slight interest, "I'll think about it."
"We still have time. To show our sincerity, how about going to the office to retrieve the bug now?" Belmode said.
…
It was noon.
The sunlight outside the window shines into the window of the Maori Detective Agency and falls on the tool man who is holding an "English and Japanese Dictionary" and flipping through it.
Conan's plan of dried fish was executed fairly smoothly.
By converting Japanese and English, Mouri Kogoro has deciphered some of the hiragana in the email.
He bent down and rubbed the blue cat Goro's head, and suddenly began to wonder if this cat really had extraordinary spirituality as written in the book.
He crouched down and bent over, and the tie around his neck began to swing from side to side.
The blue cat Goro's pupils suddenly dilated, and he couldn't help but rush forward and start scratching and biting.
"Hey! This is my new one!"
Mouri Kogoro screamed miserably and quickly stood up, leaving his previous thoughts behind:
"What, a cat is indeed a cat... But no matter what, at least we already know that these are some basic codes deliberately used by young girls in a playful mood. If you think about it based on this principle, you should be able to solve it quickly. right!"
He sat back down at his desk, opened his notepad and started copying hiragana.
Mouri Kogoro became confident.
Mouri Kogoro became serious.
5 minutes later.
Mouri Kogoro became irritable:
"What! I don't understand it at all! There are several symbols that don't look like hiragana or katakana no matter how you look at them!"
"Meow~"
At this time, Goro jumped on his shoulder. After attracting the attention of the tool man, he immediately jumped down and ran to the video recorder under the TV cabinet.
Mouri Kogoro came after him, grabbed the back of Goro's neck and got angry:
"Damn it, don't slap your nose in the face just to make you look good. If you take Miss Yoko's videotape...Miss Yoko! It's terrible. There are less than 3 hours before Miss Yoko's TV series starts. If it can't be solved smoothly, With this code, I can only record the show first..."
Thinking of this, he suddenly saw that a video tape was missing from the cabinet.
A flash of inspiration occurred, and I thought of the symbols in the code. Those symbols that neither looked like hiragana nor katakana were probably girls who thought they were cute and deliberately used this type of text that lacked some strokes to replace hiragana.
"So that's what happened!"
Just as he was cheering for joy, little did he know that Belmode had quietly taken away the bug from the bedroom on the third floor.
Ye Gengyi used the excuse of 'confirming whether it was the one he saw' to take away the nanorobot attached to it.
Immediately, the two disguised themselves and changed transportation, and at 5 o'clock in the afternoon, they arrived at a hotel in the city of Kyoto that looked like a Western castle.
Because the wife of the previous president who was attending the meeting was not generous enough to book the venue.
Therefore, Ye Gengyi and Belmode sneaked in easily.
The built-in decoration of the building also imitates the style of medieval Europe.
There are many beautifully shaped candlesticks placed on the roof and along the walls. Although the positions of candles have now been replaced by light bulbs, the soft light emitted by low-power incandescent lamps...
It didn't make any of this feel awkward.
In the banquet hall.
Elegant music serves as the background, slightly covering up the hushed conversations between people.
The atmosphere is calm and cozy.
From time to time, a waiter would walk through the crowd carrying red wine, and he just missed the two guests at the angle between the lights, who were plainly and elegantly dressed, but with extremely ordinary appearances.
Belmode is obviously very used to this kind of situation.
Looking around the field with keen eyes, he soon landed on a woman surrounded by three or five men, wearing a dark red dress, like an opera singer.
He looks to be no more than thirty-five or sixty-six years old, well... maybe it's because of the makeup, or maybe the skin is well maintained...
Is this person the wife of the previous president of Ni Shenhui?
If it is true, it is no wonder that Busujima Kiriko is not happy to have her property taken away from her.
A proper stepmother...
Ye Geng finished his observation and asked in a low voice:
"is her?"
"No, I just like that skirt better..."
Belmode looked away from there and turned around casually: "Look how popular she is."
Ye Gengyi whispered without any fluctuations in his tone:
"If you tear off your disguise, you will definitely attract more attention than her."
"Oh?" Belmod looked over and said, "Can I understand that this is a compliment?"
"Do you lack self-confidence?" Ye Gengyi asked.
It seems that considering that ie cannot change his voice at will, letting him play the role of a male companion who cannot speak due to throat inflammation is one of the wisest decisions I made in this operation...
Belmode cursed secretly and was about to say something.
At this moment, the sound in the entire venue suddenly became silent.
The two of them noticed something, and both turned their heads to look at the door.
A woman with slightly silver hair and a cane walked in.
Behind her, as well as on the left and right sides, were a total of three strong men wearing black suits who just had 'I am a bodyguard' carved on their faces.
"This is Mrs. Busujima." Belmod's introduction was belated.
"Well, I can see..."
Ye Gengyi looked at this middle-aged woman who was wearing a sapphire blue dress and looked about 50 years old.
The other party, also surrounded by three bodyguards, walked to the table at the front of the entire banquet hall.
"Is her leg an old injury?"
"It is said that when I was working hard with the previous president, I was caught and interrupted abruptly."
Belmode said:
"It is precisely because of this that she can still receive some care from the elderly after the death of the old president."
"That's it..." Ye Geng nodded.
He had no interest in the history of the development of Mudsenkai. He just felt that it would be fine if Mrs. Busujima's leg was an old injury. But if it was a new injury and it was caused by Kiriko Busujima, then it would be really 'filial piety and generosity'...
