Chapter Five Hundred and Sixty Fourth Commission of a Famous Actor

March 22, Sunday, evening, Mei Dai Restaurant.

Maori, who was full of sleep, came over yawning. After ordering a half-dozen beer package, he sat in his old seat by the door and ate.

The first half was almost busy, and during the break, Yamazaki came over to explain Hijikata Kosaburo's commission.

"Tomorrow afternoon?" Mao Li scratched his head, "How much do you know about this famous actor, Mr. Hijikata? I remember that he has always followed the route of costume dramas."

"I went to buy a magazine introducing Mr. Hijikata in the afternoon, and it was on your desk, Uncle." Yamazaki said, "It said that he is now at a low point in his acting career and is still in divorce disputes. His wife, a 38-year-old daughter Actor Ms. Nagakura Yumi has a third party, and this person is the 29-year-old actor Mr. Okitaichi."

"So that's why I wanted to change my image." Maori said, and then called Conan who was passing by to get the magazine. ...

March 23, Monday, morning, good mood, Miko Miyamoto's office.

"Madam, one day yesterday, I had three appointments at the Imperial Hotel in the Central District." Ji Ji said, "The first is the matter between the Fengcang Family, the Yujing Consortium, and the Siling Consortium for the control of the Imperial Hotel Group under the Fengcang Consortium. The Yujing consortium means please think carefully about it. The Siling consortium means please don't intervene without authorization. The Fengcang family means that they want to rely on us, simply put, it is financing and borrowing."

"Borrowing?" Miyamoto Miko asked, "What about the funds he sold to our six companies last time?"

"Except for the Fengcang Commercial Group, most of the rest are filled in the five Fengcheng Construction Group, Imperial Hotel Group, Sun Life Insurance Company, Taiyang Fire Marine Insurance Company, and Chiyoda Fire Marine Insurance Company. In the companies under the control of the six major consortiums under the Cang Financial Group, they each acquired about 10% of the stocks, but they still have no right to speak." Ji Ji said, "It seems that the six major consortiums have tacitly set up a Bureau, took away his funds."

Miko Miyamoto asked: "What is the Fengkura family going to do with the borrowed funds?"

Ji Ji said: "If the Fengcang family wants to continue buying stocks, they must first win a financial company."

Miko Miyamoto thought for a while, and said with a smile: "The road for Fengcang's family is difficult now."

"Why is that?" Ji Ji asked.

"First of all, next week is when the new economic policy will start. The Fengcang family controls six companies, Fengcang Commercial Group, Fengcang Hotel Group, Fengri Beverage Group, Nissin Cooking Oil Company, Fenghao Clothing Company, Children Our base animation and entertainment company, I dare say that apart from Fengcang Commercial Group, other companies will not benefit at all. It is also the time to pay taxes. As long as the six major financial groups instruct tax officials to imply that these companies have tax problems in front of the media, they will definitely be exaggerated. The stocks of these companies will immediately fall. Even if the explanation is clear, it will take a while , And during this period of time, these companies will definitely face a series of problems such as credit rating downgrades, asset depreciation, and financing difficulties." Miko Miyamoto said, "The Fengcang family will be in trouble for a long time."

Ji Ji thought for a while and said, "That's true." Then she said, "However, if we..."

"It's too late, those three insurance companies cannot be taken down in a short time. I guess they will definitely be merged into the insurance companies of the six major consortiums. In this way, even if the Fengcang family borrows our funds to control Fengcheng Construction Group and Imperial Hotels Group,

He also has no way to repay the funds. "Miyamoto Miko said, "Unless he is willing to devote himself to us, then I can help him. " Then he said, "You tell him to raise as much of his own funds as possible, otherwise he will regret it in a week or two. "

"I see." Ji Ji said, and then said, "The second date is with Fengsan Automobile Group. He wants to ask us if we are willing to join Fengsan Automobile Group, control 33% of the shares, and become the largest shareholder .”

Miko Miyamoto asked, "How did you find us?"

"According to him, the Fengchan Financial Group and even the Spring Breeze Association have already existed in name only. Fengyu Electric Group has joined the six major financial groups, but he can't. He and Fengtian Motor Group can't be in the same place if they don't want to." Ji Ji said, " The employee insurance of Fengsan Foundation is in our hands, so he came to us."

Miko Miyamoto asked, "Who do you think can secure that seat among us?"

"No." Ji Ji said, "Let me first say that I did not have an appointment for my third date yesterday. The French car company wants to join Fengsan Automobile Group. Maybe most of our industries are in China. The only condition is to help us open up the French and even European markets."

"If you can sell the Bank of France to me, then we can talk about it." Miyamoto Miko smiled, then thought for a while and said, "Well, you ask Olivia to introduce a team of experts in the auto industry, just as we Hired from outside, then recommended to the Suzuki family."

"I understand." Ji Ji said, and then asked, "Madam, do you want to talk to Fengchan Consortium and other companies in the Spring Breeze Association?"

"It's good to try." Miyamoto Miko said, "By the way, the insurance of these corporate employees can't be kept anymore, and the six major consortiums will definitely take it back. Let Misa pay attention."

"I see." Ji Ji said, and then smiled, "It seems that they gave us the Fengsheng life insurance back then, and they were waiting here."

"That's right, but at least we got a group of experienced insurance agents, so take your time," Miko Miyamoto said.

Ji Ji looked at the time and said, "It's getting late, ma'am, if there's nothing else..."

"There is something." Miko Miyamoto briefly talked about Asami Uchida.

"Oh, apologizing in the dream, it looks good, I will pay attention." Ji Ji smiled, "Madam, I'll go back first."...

In the morning, Maori Detective Agency.

After Lan returned to school, she told Maori that she would also go with Maori to see Kozaburo Hijikata.

Maori said helplessly: "I am going to work, what are you doing with me?"

"Yuanzi, please ask me to sign it." Lan said, "And I handle many things in the office, such as taxation and so on. I can also help."

"I think you want to see them yourself." Maori said angrily.

"It doesn't matter, it's nothing anyway." Lan said with a pout.

Maori thought for a while and said, "Okay."

"Well, can I go too?" Conan asked, pointing to himself.

"You? No." Maori said.

"Ah," Conan thought of an idea, "but, I want to listen to my uncle's lectures and teach him how to be a detective."

"Oh, seeing how caring you are, that's fine." Mao Li laughed. ...

In the afternoon, a cafe next to Tsutsukawa in Mihua Town.

After coming in and sitting for a while, Lan asked, "Dad, why don't we go directly to his house, instead of waiting here?"

"Maybe because of the divorce dispute, he is still being harassed by reporters." Mao Li smiled, "If a reporter sees me, a detective, coming in and out of his place, he will be in big trouble."

"That's right, you really are a Maori detective." A middle-aged man wearing a hat and wide-brimmed glasses came over, "I kept you waiting, I'm Kosaburo Hijikata." He took off his glasses and let them see Once, then put it on again.

"Ah, hello, I'm Detective Mori Kogoro," Mori introduced, "This is my assistant Yamazaki, my daughter Ran, and Conan."

After the greeting, Yamazaki looked at Kozaburo Hijikata who was one step away and frowned. He felt dangerous. Then he thought of his identity as an actor and a master of swordsmanship, and laughed in his heart. This should be when he played many roles. After the play, there are many murderous guys among those characters. Then I thought of Kaito, he still can't play other people perfectly, maybe he should go to an acting class to learn more.

Kosaburo Hijikata picked up the bill, "Mori Mori, please follow me first."

After leaving the cafe, Kozaburo Hijikata smiled and said, "Come on, this way, teacher."

Mao Li smiled embarrassedly, "Teacher? Well, please don't call me that again."

Kosaburo Hijikata smiled and said, "I still have to ask you a lot about being a detective. It's not an exaggeration to call you a teacher."

"If you say that, that's right." Maori laughed happily.

"Mr. Hijikata, can you give me an autograph." Lan took out the autograph pad and pen in her bag, "It's for my friend Sonoko."

"Of course it's okay." Hijikata Kozaburo smiled and signed the autograph book.

Soon after, Mori, Yamazaki, Ran, and Conan followed Hijikata Kozaburo to the back door of an apartment building not far from the cafe. The apartment building is not high, only six floors.

"Why did we sneak in through the back door like this?" Conan asked.

"This is the trouble of being a celebrity." Hijikata Kozaburo smiled, "Everything will be embellished and exaggerated, but it's even more serious when it comes to me. Three celebrities, like this time, just say a few words among neighbors, It becomes a third party plus a divorce dispute.”

"Neighborhood?" Ran asked, "Could it be that actor Mr. Okita Kazu also lives here?"

"Yeah, he lives next door to my house." Hijikata Kosaburo said.

Mao Li asked, "So, aren't you and your wife getting divorced?"

"Of course not, that's just nonsense." Kosaburo Hijikata laughed, "It's just a quarrel between husband and wife."

"You guys bicker too." Lan laughed.

"Of course, celebrities are people too." Kozaburo Hijikata laughed.

While speaking, the five of them walked to the front of the elevator room, and the elevator door opened.

In the elevator was a man in his thirties with a Walkman earplugs in his ears.

Lan said happily: "You are Mr. Okitaichi." Then he took out the autograph book, "Can you sign it for me? It's for my friend Sonoko."

"Okay." Okitaichi took off the earplugs, and then took the autograph book.

After Okita signed and returned the autograph book to Ran, Hijikata Kozaburo asked, "Where are you going now?"

"I'm going to the convenience store." Okitaichi said, "Don't worry, I'll be right back, I will follow our agreement, and I will wait for you in the room as soon as the time comes." He put on earplugs and left.

"Promise?" Maori asked, "Do you have anything else to do this afternoon?"

"Yes, that matter has an impact on our careers. We are going to hold a press conference to clarify it. We need to discuss it in advance." Hijikata Kozaburo said, "This time was arranged by Yumi and did not communicate with me, so repeated."

Maori said, "Then we..."

"No, no, it will just delay a little time," Hijikata Kosaburo said, "I don't have much time left to figure out the role, Mr. Mori, please."

"Alright then." Molly agreed.

"I live on the fifth floor." Kosaburo Hijikata led everyone into the elevator, and pressed the button for the fifth floor.

"Huh?" Conan pointed to the display board and asked, "What's that on it? It seems to be black tape."

"That's right, cover up the numbers," Lan said.

"Maybe it's someone's prank." Hijikata Kozaburo tore off the tape casually.

A moment later, on the fifth floor, outside Hijikata's house.

Seeing "Okita" written on the door sign next door, Maori couldn't help but said, "It turns out that Mr. Okita lives here."

"That's right," Hijikata Kozaburo said, "That's why the newspaper reporters are so interested and desperately writing." Then he knocked on the door and found no answer, so he said, "It seems that Yumi is going upstairs gone."

"Upstairs?" Maori asked.

"Since that rumor surfaced, I have cleaned up the sixth floor." Kosaburo Hijikata said, "By the way, this building is my property."

Lan asked, "Then why didn't you live on the sixth floor?"

Kosaburo Hijikata smiled and said, "You don't know that. The sixth floor is the roof. It's cold in winter and hot in summer. Not only the air-conditioning and electricity bills, but also the air-conditioning can't afford it in many cases. Also, maybe it's because I'm used to living on the fifth floor. In the other two seasons, living on the sixth floor was not as comfortable as the fifth floor." He touched his pockets, "Sorry, I forgot to bring the key, please wait a moment."

"Okay," Molly said.

Not long after, a woman in her thirties came over holding Kozaburo Hijikata's arm.

"Ms. Yongmei, can you give me an autograph," Lan said with a smile, "for my friend Yuanzi."

"No problem." Yongcang Yumi smiled and signed the autograph book, and then said with a smile, "Welcome, Maori Detective, I'm sorry to ask you to come here for my family's affairs."

"Where, where." Maori laughed.

Kozaburo Hijikata opened the door, "Come in, Mr. Mori."

Yongcang Yumi smiled and said, "Detective Mori, you have to teach him well, because he only knows how to swing a sword." He nodded Hijikata Kosaburo's head while speaking.

"Hey, hey, that's not a good way to say it," Hijikata Kosaburo said with a smile, "At the beginning, you were with me only because you saw that I could use the sword well."

"Is there?" Yongcang Yumi smiled, "Why don't I remember it?"

Mao Li smiled and said, "You two have a really good relationship, and I don't know who said that the two of you are not compatible."

"Who says it's not." Yongcang Yumi smiled.

"Please, please enter the living room and wait for a while." Kosaburo Hijikata said with a smile, "I'm going to make tea."

"Huh?" Molly was puzzled.

"Sorry, I still have some things upstairs." Yongcang Yumi smiled, "So..."

"Go ahead and get busy." Maori said hastily.

After the four Mori were invited into the living room, Hijikata Kozaburo and Nagakura Yumi took the living room door and went out.

Ten minutes later, Kosaburo Hijikata came in with a tray of hot tea, "I'm sorry, but there is no hot water at home. This is the unfortunate place to marry a celebrity wife."

Mao Li smiled and said, "Really, many people envied him back then."

After the tea was served, Kozaburo Hijikata said, "By the way, Mr. Mori, the background of my first scene is by the river." He opened the balcony sliding door and went into the balcony, "It's just opposite."

The four of Maori went up to the balcony. Outside the balcony was the Diwujin River. The view was very good, and the winding river at the upper and lower ends could not be seen at a glance.

"It must be very beautiful here at night." Lan said with a smile, "I think it must be very atmospheric to watch the night scene here at night."

"Yeah, I often take it as a side dish." Kozaburo Hijikata laughed.

At this time, Conan found that Yamazaki looked at the balcony next door with a serious expression, but he couldn't see due to height restrictions, so he jumped up and lay down on the balcony fence to look over there.

In the corner of the balcony next door, a piece of cloth that looks like a bed sheet is covered by something that looks like, like a person is sitting there. ...
