Conan's Beginning was Picked Up by Xiaolan
Chapter 354 Two Similar Princesses 2
"Oh...is that so?" Kisaki Eri's tone remained unchanged.
Xiaolan smiled awkwardly: "Mom, you won't go back in anger, will you?"
"Heh... I wouldn't do something immature like that, but please don't get me wrong, I made this special trip for you! Not for that stupid guy!"
Kisaki Eri gritted her teeth a bit as she spoke the last part, and it was obvious that she was very dissatisfied with Kogoro's mumbling just now.
Xiaocheng took a breath of cold air. Women are really scary. He turned to look at Conan and found that the boy had already stayed far away from Kisaki Eri. It was obvious that he was really afraid of Kisaki Eri.
Fortunately, Hibiki Eri still took them to the client's home to continue the investigation and take over this difficult job.
However, before leaving, Kisaki Eri asked Xiaolan to take the rope. Looking at the movements of Kisaki Eri's hands, Conan swallowed his saliva with a gulp, and Xiaocheng also looked confused.
Kisaki Eri tied Kogoro up with a rope, and it was not a simple tie, but a tight one tied in all directions, with a terrible expression on Kisaki Eri's face.
Erxiao was trembling with fear and didn't dare to make a sound. Xiaolan wanted to speak, but was silenced by Kisaki Eri's death gaze.
Before leaving, Xiaocheng looked back at Kogoro and said, "Old Deng, you'd better take care of yourself."
In the car, Kisaki Eri heard and got to know a little about the person the client wanted to investigate, Fujieda Kan'ao, who seemed to have done a lot of bad things when he was young.
But later on, he was very thoughtful and after some planning, he won the heart of the eldest daughter of a wealthy family and became the daughter-in-law of the wealthy family.
It's a pity that it's hard to change one's nature, and he still used the money that didn't belong to him to do some illegal business and make some illegal money.
Kisaki Eri had a very bad opinion of him, and he was nothing more than a despicable villain.
Xiaolan originally thought that this young lady was the client, after all, they were husband and wife. Unfortunately, the young lady has passed away, and she heard that Fujieda Kan'ao has remarried.
This client appears to be his second wife.
The group came to a manor. Xiaocheng looked at the villa in front of him. It occupied a large area. Fujieda Kan'ao was really lucky. I don't know why the young lady liked him.
After the person died, Fujieda Kan'ao turned around and married a new one. The time connection was quite fast.
"Everyone, I am waiting for you. Are you here to represent Mr. Maori Kogoro?"
As the steward of the manor, Ueki Souya has a kind face. When Kisaki Eri came, he had already talked to him on the phone in advance.
"That's right." When Kiyori saw him looking at her, she nodded politely.
"Hello, I am Ueki Souhachi, who has been working as a housekeeper for fifty years. If you need anything, please feel free to help. Don't be shy, ahem..."
Ueki Sohachi told them his identity and entertained them, but it seemed that he was not in good health.
"Do you have a cold?" Conan asked when he saw this.
"Oh, no, it's an old asthma problem. I'm so sorry, please follow us." Ueki Sohachi explained and said apologetically.
There are always some people who will apologize to others because of their concern, saying they are just troubling you to worry about them. For people like them, asking others to care means causing trouble for them.
Xiaocheng looked at the old man who was over sixty years old and had lived in this manor for fifty years. From this, we could tell what kind of owner of the manor he was, and the current owner, Fujieda Kan'ao, was definitely not one of them.
That was just the eldest lady who was still alive. She must have been a very good person.
Through the information from the commission, we can conclude that someone wants to murder Fujieda Kan'ao, and we can also know that this guy probably has a very bad heart here. Is it because the eldest lady has died and he has stopped pretending?
On the way, Kisaki Eri and Xiaolan both praised the beauty of the courtyard. Xiaocheng also thought it was very beautiful and the courtyard was definitely built with great care.
It is very pleasing to look at. The flower design here uses a combination of colorful leaves, white, red, purple and other colors, which is bright and full of vitality.
According to Ueki Sohachi, it seems that the design of this place was designed by the eldest lady and the gardener, and they also met this gardener on the way.
Xiaolan even greeted them specially, but unfortunately the other person just turned around and glanced at them and ignored them.
"Don't worry about his affairs. Actually, he was not like this before, but since the master married into the family, he has become silent except for the first wife and me."
When Ueki Sohachi saw the rude behavior of the gardener Doi Kozo, he also spoke up to explain for him. Perhaps it was not enough, so he added another sentence.
"In the past six months, he would not respond to me even if I spoke to him."
"I think he must have loved my sister who died of illness." Fujieda Shigeru heard the rare noise outside, so he went out to take a look. After hearing what Ueki Sohachi said, he explained.
Xiao Cheng looked at the gardener with a look of confusion on his face. Secret love, huh? The hazy and hidden love is always the most regrettable, never spoken or expressed.
I’m afraid this kind of love will accompany me for a lifetime. Xiaocheng looked at his back and suddenly felt that he was a little lonely. Among all the secret loves, the inferiority and lack of courage are really fatal.
The combination of the two means that I would never say "I like you" even if I love you until I die, for I am afraid that this "I like you" would cause you some trouble out of nowhere.
On the field, the steward Ueki Kusahachi was introducing Fujieda Shigeru to him.
This is the eldest lady’s younger brother. The eldest lady should also be called the eldest wife of the manor. Why is she the eldest wife? Of course there is a second wife.
And this second wife is the client this time.
After a simple polite greeting, Fujieda Shigeru called Ueki Souhachi away. There would be another person coming later, and he wanted to explain things to Ueki Souhachi.
When he entered the house, he did not see the client, but he saw Tengzhi Ganxiong who was trying to curry favor with the rich and powerful.
"Oh, you are the agents of that idiot detective, here to investigate the prank? How come you know who wants to kill me?" Fujieda Kan'ao's voice had a very superior tone.
"Yes, but we still need more clues right now." Kisaki Eri did not show any displeasure because of the tone of his words, but politely and generously explained the reason for her visit.
"Okay, then you just check it out for me. When I find the suspect, I know it was done by a servant who wanted to make me look bad. Haha... This kind of thing actually costs 10 million."
Fujieda Kan'ao was a little disdainful. Servants are destined to be servants all their lives. Do they have the courage to do that? He left the place, which also gave the four people a very bad impression.
This guy is really pretending. Xiaocheng looked at him and said, you are really... If you don’t die, who will die, brother?
