Chapter 41, Banquet

A few days later, Mana learned from Natsume that it was a gathering of monsters. Natsume was accidentally kidnapped by a monster as a gift. Fortunately, Mr. Cat and Natori rescued him.

Natori also mentioned one thing with Natsume, he hoped that Natsume would be his assistant and deal with some incidents.

Natori is not in a hurry to get Natsume's answer, and is willing to give time to consider.

Natsume's concern is not only Natori, but Mana can also see that it is nothing more than unwillingness to hurt youkai, and not wanting to be a person who is cruel and cruel to youkai.As for whether Natsume should be Natori's assistant, Mana has only one suggestion,

The corner of Mana's mouth curled up, "University tuition fees are very high. With Natsume's temperament, you should be very reluctant to let Aunt Toko's family bear the cost. Believe me, the reward for dealing with this kind of non-human incident will be very high."

If it weren't for the fact that she didn't want to get too involved in the youkai world, Mana would be happy to get paid for dealing with non-human events.

Mana's words touched Natsume a lot, "Mana is right, Uncle Zi and Aunt Toko have given me enough, I can't make them work harder."

"Actually, Natsume, you don't need to be so worried. Maybe things are not as bad as you imagined. There are good monsters and bad ones. Mr. Natori is just doing something to protect human beings. No matter what, I believe that Natsume will have your own idea."

Natsume nodded, and sighed again, "It feels like Mana is more mature than me."

Mana blinked, it turned out that Natsume noticed her caring tone for her little brother, the idea that Natsume is a good boy somehow took root in her heart, and she subconsciously thought about him→_→.

Natsume looked at Mana firmly and sincerely again, "I made Mana worry."

"You still worry me." Madara pouted,

"Yes, yes, thank you, Mr. Cat." Natsume hugged the somewhat heavy Mr. Cat and said affectionately.

After that, Natsume became Natori Monday's temporary assistant, occasionally helping with a few tasks.Natori also made a special call on Monday to thank Mana. As for the number, he should have known it from Natsume.

Ming teased, "I thought that with that kid's character, he would think about it for a long time."

"He will agree, more because of his trust in you. You can never let him down, let alone make him sad." In the last sentence, Zhennai emphasized her tone. She will take the initiative to promote this matter, more is I hope Natsume can learn some ways to protect herself from Natori's side, after all, this kid is too inexperienced, and his temperament is as simple as a piece of paper.

Natori should be a good teacher, he can't change Natsume's mind, but he can teach Natsume a lot.

"A banquet at the Atobe family? Why should I go?"

Looking at the gold-plated invitations with rose patterns printed on her hands, Chennai said dryly, how the recent invitations are so hot, she refused one batch and came again.

Yagyu Hiroshi explained, "I said I wanted to thank you for saving my life last time, so I invited you."

Mana blinked, "Can't you not go?" But then immediately changed her words, "Okay, I will go."

Rich people are troublesome, because the invitation specifies that Mana is among those invited, so even if Mana doesn't like to participate in this kind of occasion, she has to go once, otherwise people will think that either she Yanagi Mana has no education, or the Atobe family treats Yagyu I mind.

It's been so long, why did this happen all of a sudden?Hey, rich people are really troublesome.When Mana said this from the bottom of her heart, she also forgot that she also belonged to the category of rich people.

"Mana needs to wear a skirt." Mieko Yagyu said with a smile, her eyes full of anticipation.

The corners of Mana's mouth twitched, dresses and skirts are only suitable for dancing, not fighting.I hope that nothing will happen when the time comes, and Mana can only comfort herself like this.

……

And on the day of attending the banquet of the Atobe family at the Rice Flower Hotel, after seeing the long-lost elementary school student Conan, Mana was already inwardly hehe, and this scene seemed familiar.

Oh, by the way, it was the chandelier murder incident that almost happened at the campus festival.As for Keigo Atobe, huh, he must not be able to stop Conan's aura of death, and mourn for him for half a second.

Conan will come to participate because the Atobe family invited the Maori detective who has recently become famous. In order to prevent her father from finding a beautiful woman as a female companion, Xiaolan insisted on coming. She came and brought Conan along by the way .

The Atobe family wouldn't say anything either, after all, Mori Ran was a good friend of Suzuki Sonoko, the second lady of the Suzuki Foundation.

Conan was surprised when he saw Mana, especially when he saw Mana Yagyu in a formal dress for the first time, and, sure enough, →_→Even though she was wearing a delicate dress, she still didn’t look like a young lady.

There seemed to be another person who was also similar, and Conan turned his head to look at Suzuki Sonoko who was drinking a glass of red wine and laughing.

'Bang', Mana slammed a chestnut on Conan's head, and said softly, "What are you thinking?"

It always feels like Conan is thinking something against her.

Conan, who felt that there was no woman around him who was gentle and could not help feeling sad, said silently, "I didn't think about it, why are you here?"

"It happened to save Keigo Atobe indirectly once before, so I invited me, and I had no choice but to come."

Mana held a glass of juice in her hand and said with a deadpan expression.

It means that their place is a corner, and the two of them are not well-known people, so not many people pay attention to this place, so Mana dares to rest assured and complain to Conan.

But I don't know if it's because of talking badly about others behind their backs. After a while, a waiter wearing a tie came over and asked, "Is this Ms. Yanagyu Mana?"

Mana nodded, and he continued, "My old man wants to meet Ms. Yagyu."

The old man of the Atobe family is the grandfather of Keigo Atobe. Why did he want to see her, Mana couldn't figure it out for a long time, but obviously it was not something she could refuse.

Mana followed the visitors into the presidential suite. In addition to the old man of the Atobe family, Keigo Atobe was also there, as well as some other well-dressed and well-behaved middle-aged male and female guests whom he did not know.After paying respects to Mrs. Atobe politely, Mana stepped back knowingly, not talking much or looking at her.

Participating in this kind of banquet is not just putting on a smiling face. As a junior, I can't even get in the conversation. Although Mana doesn't like it, it's not like she can't. It's all a lesson of blood and tears.

Seeing Mana Yagyu's pure and well-behaved appearance, Keigo Atobe couldn't help twitching the corners of his mouth. This is Mana Yagyu who was not gorgeous at all before, but made a "gorgeous reasoning".

I am afraid that Mana will always carry the blame for campus reasoning.

The old man Atobe would think of meeting Mana, but in fact it was just a whim, his psychological quality and thinking ability were beyond his age, and he could reason. Even his always proud grandson would put down his airs and say, 'It's pretty gorgeous. '

Mana didn't stay for long, the old man Atobe asked her a few words, and her answer was quite satisfactory, not out of line at all, and then she was let go generously, with a good name, girls should go and have fun Shouldn't have stayed to talk to the bad old man.

Of course, after listening to the words of the old man Atobe and others, Mana went through a circle in her mind and translated it herself.

After leaving the room and seeing Yagyu's parents and Yagyu Hiroshi, Mana breathed a sigh of relief, not caring that Keigo Atobe was still beside him.

The Yagyu couple also learned that their daughter was called over by the old man of the Atobe family, but they didn't understand what it meant.But looking at Mana's appearance, it should be fine.

Atobe Keigo handed over a gold card to Mana, and said quite formally, "This is a gift from the Atobe family."

Hearing that, when the Liusheng couple was still a little hesitant, Mana took it straightforwardly. It's not that she didn't know the concerns of the other members of the Liusheng family, but she felt that it would be better to understand the kindness with money, so as to save more things in the future For example, this kind of banquet should be regarded as a reward for being brave.

If her surname was not Yagyu, Mana thought that this reward would have been given from the beginning.

Rich people are really troublesome.

Atobe Keigo was also taken aback when he saw Mana accepting the gold card so readily, but then his expression returned to normal, he put his hand in his trouser pocket, said polite words to the Yagyu couple, and went back.

Mana turned her head and blinked at Yagyu's parents, Yagyu Shusuke and Mieko looked at each other, sighed and then laughed again, just treat it as a matter between children, as adults like them thought too much.

After Atobe Keigo returned to the room, he told his grandfather what happened just now.

Grandpa Atobe said with a smile, "He is a patient and courageous child, very good."

Hearing this, Atobe Keigo raised his eyebrows slightly, his grandfather rarely praised others, even his grandson sometimes rarely received a few words of praise, but it was only the first time he saw Yanagyu Mana, and he was able to say such words.

After the old man Atobe smiled, he said again, "But I'm very surprised, how did the Yagyu family raise such a child?"

It's free-range, right? Keigo Atobe, who knew some rumors about Mana Yagyu, complained in his heart.

Bad girl?But it would be different if he was labeled as courageous, resourceful, and psychologically strong, and he couldn't help but let people explore the reasons for it.

It's a pity that Yagyu Mana is a child of the Yagyu family after all, and they can't let go to investigate, unless the Atobe family has other intentions, the old man Atobe thought with a smile.

"By the way, there will be someone coming later, see you." The old man Atobe said solemnly,

Hearing that, Jingwu from the Ministry of Words and Records didn't think about anything else, and replied, "Okay, Grandpa."

When the banquet was held at halftime, Mana was already thinking of some reason to run away, but she accidentally saw a person, Jingji Chang.

It's just that he is no longer wearing a black and quiet kimono, but a black suit and tie. His half-length hair is tied behind his head, and he has a calm demeanor. The place where he came out seems to be the room where the old man Atobe stayed just now.

Why did Zhang Jingsi appear here?

Mana's heart skipped a beat for some reason, but in the blink of an eye, the figure of Jingji Ma who disappeared seemed to tell her that she was wrong.

But Mana knew that she was right. Although she had only seen one and a half times, the impression was unexpectedly deep, so that Mana left Yagyu Hiroshi and the others again and chased after them.

She walked around but still couldn't find the person who impressed her so much that she couldn't help being impulsive.

"What are you looking at?" Before finding it, Mana's hand was suddenly grabbed, and when she looked back, it was Conan with a deep expression.

"There won't be anything strange." Conan said bitterly,

"No, I just met someone I know." Looking at Conan's relieved look, Mana bent down with a smile and said, "But it's not an ordinary human being, it's an exorcist."

"Exorcist?" As a modern person, Conan didn't know much about this term, but he could know the meaning from the name alone.

Conan stared at Mana again and said, "Then what are you?"

I feel like I understand a lot.

Mana thought for a while, and gave the answer, "He is a professional monster exorcist, and I am an amateur at most, an ordinary human being who can see monsters."

I can see monsters, how is this normal, Conan complained in his heart for the nth time.

"Don't underestimate me as an amateur, I'm much better than some exorcists..."

Sure enough, here it is again, listening to Mana Yagyu running the train again, Conan silently looked away, not knowing which of her words is true and which is false.

While talking, Mana suddenly noticed that Conan seemed to be silent, "Hey, why didn't you listen to me?" Mana looked at Conan dissatisfied, but found that he lifted the beige patterned tablecloth and squatted there.

"What are you looking at?" Mana sneaked down beside Conan and lifted the tablecloth, regardless of her appearance.

Then, the two people, one big and one small, fell silent at the same time, looking at the black bomb taped to the center of the bottom of the table.

After a long silence, Mana was the first to speak, "In the future... remember to tell me in advance when you come to Kanagawa."

Please please.
