That night.
In an izakaya near THK Company, four shareholders of the company were sitting in the innermost seats, gathering together for a small party.
When four glasses of beer came together, Odagiri Toshiya and Suzuki Sonoko smiled and shouted, "Cheers!"
Feichi climbed out of Chi Feichi's sleeves, rolled up an empty glass with his tail, and poked Chi Feichi with the tip of his tail, "Master, and I..."
Chi Feichi was not in a hurry to drink and poured half a glass of apple juice for Feichi.
Feichi looked at the cup and continued to poke Chi Feichi. He tilted his head and opened his dark eyes, imitating Conan's tone and acting cute, "Master, just drink a little fruity beer. Is that okay?"
Chi Feichi: "..."
Fruity beers are also wine.
Moreover, Fei Chi's cold eyes and expressionless snake face are really not suitable for being cute.
Seeing that the atmosphere was good, Chi Feichi gave in, took another empty cup, and poured some fruity beer for Feichi.
"Is it okay to give Feichi a drink?" Odagiri Toshiya stretched out his hand and poked Feichi who was happily holding the glass.
"It shouldn't matter, right?" Suzuki Sonoko smiled, clinking the rim of her cup with the rim of Fei Chi's cup, "Okay, let's add Fei Chi and let's all drink together!"
The four of them and one snake took a sip of beer. Morizono Kikuto put down the cup and reminded, "Sonoko, don't drink too much."
"It's okay," Suzuki Sonoko took a sip of the beer in the cup, smiled and waved, "The atmosphere is so good, I can't spoil the fun. The party must start with beer, and fruit-flavored beer is no different from soda!"
"Sonoko is right," Odagiri Toshi also put down his beer glass and pushed the menu forward, "Just order it, I'll treat you tonight!"
Kikuto Morizono looked at the menu and sighed with a smile, "It's rare to get together like this, it feels so good..."
The other three people also felt the same way. It was more relaxing for such a few people to have dinner together in an izakaya than to attend any banquet.
The proprietress was waiting aside with a smile, and helped introduce special dishes from time to time.
Her store is located here, so it is easy to meet artists from THK. This time she met the company president, and it seemed that she didn't...
No, it’s still amazing!
After the four of them ordered wine and drinks, the landlady took a pen and a postcard and asked Odagiri Toshiya to get his friend's autograph.
The sky outside has completely darkened, and this is an area densely populated by companies. At this point, when employees from various companies gather for dinner after get off work, there are not many empty seats left around.
Chi Feichi subconsciously paid attention to his surroundings and found that people at other tables were looking towards Odagiri Toshiya from time to time.
There are many people who know Toshiya Odagiri, but I haven't restrained myself at all. When there was an official press conference, I reluctantly dyed my hair black, and then dyed it purple a few days later. I didn't wear sunglasses or a hat to block it when I went out, and it was always red. Put the coat on.
However, these people were all office workers nearby. They didn't come forward to disturb others when they were having dinner together, but people glanced at them from time to time, which made him feel strange.
After the boss lady went back to work, Suzuki Sonoko also looked around and sighed in a low voice, "Toshiya-nii is still so popular."
Morizono Kikuto also lowered his voice, "As long as the popularity of THK Company decreases, his fame will not decrease. But when Chiga's limelight is almost gone, Kuraki's new song will be released, and then Okino will be released." of……"
"Hey, hey, let's go to the party tonight, so there's no need to talk about that!" Odagiri Toshi also quickly interrupted.
Morizono Kikuto laughed and changed the subject, "Sonoko, you guys are about to go on summer vacation..."
Chi Feichi sat aside and listened quietly to Suzuki Sonoko talking about summer vacation arrangements.
After finishing the work, it is a good way to relax at home for a day and go out for dinner with friends in the evening.
…
The wine and food were served, and the four of them ate slowly, adding wine and food from time to time, and kept away the tables of guests who came in at the same time.
After Chi Feichi had almost eaten, he stood up and walked to the side away from Suzuki Garden. Taking the opportunity to get up and move, he used the corner of his eyes to pay attention to the middle-aged men at the table at the door. He sat down with Odagiri Toshiya and took out a cigarette. bite.
The middle-aged man looked to be in his forties, of medium height, wearing a white short-sleeved shirt and gray trousers, with short hair, a high hairline, a square face, a big nose, a high hump, and some white lips. He looked like General company employees are no different.
The man and his companion entered the store ten minutes after them, and there were only two of them. Due to the distance, he couldn't hear what the two people were saying, but he occasionally paid attention and found that the man smiled heartily and generously, and his behavior was not shy.
Such people are very common in life. The reason why he noticed it was because the man glanced at their table three times after entering the door, and then talked, drank and ate with his companion. Ten minutes ago, the man sent his companion out and then turned back. He came back and started to look at them again and again. To be precise, he looked at Toshiya Odagiri. His eyes and expressions were a bit cramped and hesitant, unlike his previous cheerfulness.
This man probably stayed to wait for them on purpose, so he was more concerned and wanted to find out what this man wanted to do.
Because of this kind of reaction, either he recognized Odagiri Toshiya and wanted something, but he didn't want to disturb them, or it was a good old man with no criminal experience who suddenly wanted to plot something...
"Brother Fei Chi, it doesn't matter if you sit here," Suzuki Yuanzi saw Chi Fei Chi lowering his eyes and lighting up a cigarette, and poured the fruity beer himself, "I don't mind the smell of smoke!"
Odagiri Toshi had almost finished eating, and didn't pay attention to the man staring at him at the door. He took a cigarette and bit it carelessly, "I didn't care so much before, but now that there is a little devil in the house, I have to pay attention even if I don't pay attention." Yeah, if the whole room smells like cigarette smoke, it’s not good for children..."
Suzuki Sonoko's half-moon eyes said, "Don't look down on me, I'm not a child anymore!"
"Sonoko, drink less," Kikuto Morizono took the beer bottle from Suzuki Sonoko's hand and smiled, "Children are not allowed to drink. Tonight is an exception, so be restrained."
Odagiri Toshi also looked at Suzuki Sonoko's eyes widening, and almost couldn't help laughing, "Ha...ahem, Fei Chi, lend me your lighter."
Chi Feichi casually handed the lighter to Odagiri Toshiya and reminded, "The people at the table at the door have been waiting for you for a long time."
"Wait for me?" Odagiri Toshi also doubtfully took the lighter and looked at the door. He happened to see the middle-aged man turning his head to look. He was stunned for a moment. Seeing that there were not many people around, he raised his hand and greeted with a smile, "Uncle, if you If you’re alone, why not come over and sit with us!”
"Huh?" Suzuki Sonoko turned her head curiously.
When the middle-aged man saw Odagiri Toshiya saying the same thing, he walked to the table, scratched his head in embarrassment, said 'Excuse me', then sat down and handed the business card to Odagiri Toshiya with both hands, "Originally I wanted to wait for President Odagiri I’ll talk about it when I’m about to leave. Let me introduce myself. My surname is Okubo..."
"I'm sorry, Mr. Okubo, I was too engrossed in the conversation just now, and I didn't notice you were waiting for me." Odagiri Toshi also took the business card, looked down at it, and was a little surprised, "You are... the agent of the actor Ryoji Mizuhara. ,Is it right?"
Morizono Kikuto and Suzuki Sonoko were stunned for a moment, and the atmosphere suddenly became a little subtle.
"Uh, yes," the middle-aged man felt that the atmosphere was tense for a moment and sweated, "What, what's wrong?"
Suzuki Sonoko came back to her senses, smiled and waved her hands, "Nothing, nothing! I just suddenly remembered that he is a handsome guy, super cool!"
Speaking of cool, she used to think Mizuhara Ryoji was super cool, but looking at Chi Feichi opposite her, wearing a black jacket, sitting upright but calmly, and having an aura that was so calm and chilling, she just compared it in her mind. I felt that Mizuhara Ryoji looked weak for a moment.
She said it was cool, but she just wanted others to think of Ryoji Mizuhara in the 'cool' direction, so as not to...
"Yes," Morizono Kikuto said with a smile after he came to his senses, "I was a little surprised. I didn't expect to meet Mr. Mizuhara's agent here."
Change the subject, change the subject, change...
Chi Feichi recalled the TV series produced by Suwon Ryoji, and understood why the atmosphere was so subtle just now, and said to the middle-aged man, "Suwon is a bit like a friend of mine..."
The smiles on the faces of Suzuki Sonoko and Morizon Kikuto suddenly became stiff.
Failed……
"Friend?" Odagiri Toshi was also stunned. Thinking of Mizuhara Ryoji, a figure suddenly appeared in his mind.
Haga Kyosuke...
It's strange. If he thinks about it carefully, Mizuhara Ryoji and Haga Kyosuke look quite different, but he still thinks of Haga Kyosuke.
Seeing that the atmosphere was even weirder, the middle-aged man suddenly felt that he probably shouldn't come over tonight and continued to sweat, "Yeah, really..."
"The facial features are not the same, and the personality is not the same either. My friend has a gentle face and speaks politely," Chi Feichi said. "But they have the same hairstyle and have stubble on their chins. The key is the voice. , although Suwon deliberately suppressed his voice in the TV series, their voices are very similar and their speaking rhythms are also very similar."
"It turns out to be a voice..."
Odagiri Toshi also compared the voices of the two people and found that the familiarity did come from the voices. Coupled with the hairstyle and stubble, it was no wonder that he associated the two people together.
When he thought of Haga Kyosuke, he felt a little melancholy in his heart. After all, when he was at THK Company, he and Haga Kyosuke got along day and night for a few days. They talked about music and songs, and it was really not too fun.
Morizono Kikuto and Suzuki Sonoko looked at each other.
When they came over tonight, they never mentioned Haga Kyosuke or the score. They even avoided the word 'case'.
After Haga Kyosuke's case, Akiba Reiko had been promoting the show for a while, and I heard that she even went to see Haga Kyosuke. They were worried that these two people were in complicated moods.
Before the Haga Kyosuke case happened, Odagiri Toshi was still talking about Haga Kyosuke every day, saying that he introduced him to them, and he was also thinking about having someone come to the company as a foreign aid, just like Akita Reiko, so they could get together when they had time. .
Chi Feichi didn't mention anything, but people in the company said that Chi Feichi was hanging out with Haga Kyosuke, Odagiri Toshiya and the others so much that he lost track of time.
These two people were doing whatever they were supposed to do, but it made them a little uneasy.
It’s okay to express a few words of complaint or a few words of emotion.
"Hey, what's your expression?" Odagiri Toshi also raised his eyes and saw Suzuki Sonoko and Morizon Kikuto's ugly expressions, and couldn't help but laugh, "I have a good relationship with that guy, but Fei Chi and I are the best!"
