"it is good."
After Nangong Xiao personally helped You Xizi put on the enchanted earrings, You Xizi curiously ran to the mirror in the bathroom to take a look.
He ran back quickly and said with a look of wonder, "It's amazing! It's like becoming another person!"
"Well, it's okay. By the way, the effect of this earring is only effective for professionals below the professional level. Professionals above the professional level can basically see through it at a glance as long as they think about it. But this world probably won't There will be professional-level professionals, and even apprentice-level professionals may not exist, and no one can see through it except me."
"Yeah, it's good like this... huh? Ah Xiao, will it be exposed if it is captured by surveillance cameras and the like?"
"You are smart, don't worry, this thing has double insurance. In addition to the cognitive interference against temperament, it also has the function of a magic simulation mask. In essence, it is equivalent to wearing a physical mask. By the way, If you want to remove the mask, you only need to take off an earring, of course, you can also use magic power to close the magic circle of the earrings, but you haven’t condensed the magic power yet, so you can only interrupt it physically.”
"Then I'm relieved...Ah Xiao, thank you, I love you the most!"
"Yeah, I love you too."
After chatting with You Xizi for a few more words, Nangong Xiao's cell phone rang.
When I looked at the number, it was an unfamiliar number, but after connecting, I heard Miwako Sato's voice.
Miwako Sato had nothing to do when she called, it was the dinner that was agreed yesterday.
After briefly understanding the exact time and place of the appointment, Nangong Xiao hung up the phone.
"Just now, it sounded like a young woman's voice on the phone~" Yukiko, who hadn't left, said with a smile.
"Well, Sato is indeed very young, do you want to follow?" Nangong Xiao was straightforward.
"The surname is Sato~~ No, thanks for the banquet. It's not beautiful for people who don't matter to pass by. A Xiao, you can go by yourself. I'll go downstairs to find Xiao Azusa." Walk towards the entrance.
"Oh? Aren't you afraid that I'll steal something outside?" Nangong Xiao found it interesting instead.
"Isn't this the privilege of the noble lord? My lord really wants to, how can I, who is weak and humble, stop it?" You Xizi turned around and gave Nangong Xiao a 'lightning eye' playfully.
"Yes, yes, let's go."
"Hee hee~~"
After Youxizi changed her shoes and went downstairs, Nangong Xiao also went to Xiaolan's room, and took out the passbook from the storage box where Xiaolan kept important items. After all, he did not forget what his precious daughter told him last night.
After taking the passbook, Nangong Xiao went to the bathroom to tidy up her appearance before going downstairs.
In the coffee shop with Yukiko and Yukiko who is instructing Yukiko how to make coffee with a weird look. What is it?/p>
Seeing that it was still early before the appointment with Miwako Sato, Nangong Xiao drove to the Mitsubishi Bank not far from the Mihua Hotel, planning to finish explaining about her precious daughter first.
There weren't many people in the bank, and it wasn't long before it was Nangong Xiao's turn to wait in line to get a number.
"Hi, may I help you?"
"The passbook is used up, please replace it for me."
"Okay, please show XXXX"
Nangong Xiao followed the instructions of the counter lady to show her ID and signature, but there was nothing to say.
However, the lady at the counter was very pretty and had a nice voice, which made Nangong Xiao subconsciously look at the other party's badge.
'Masami Hirota'
After seeing this name, Nangong Xiao frowned.
This name reminded him of a more important character in the original novel, that is, Miyano Shiho's sister, Miyano Akemi.
Trying to recall the somewhat vague plot of the original novel as much as possible, and after a little consideration, Nangong Xiao still planned to save Miyano Akemi.
The reason is simple, that is, Miyano Shiho is a rare biotechnology talent.
According to the setting of the original drama, Miyano Akemi is basically Miyano Shiho's Achilles' heel. In other words, after Miyano Akemi is in control, Miyano Shiho cannot escape.
——I think Xuan would like this kind of assistant...
Secretly thinking about how to intervene in Miyano Akemi's incident, he also cooperated with the counter lady - Hirota Masami to handle the formalities of renewing the passbook.
After a while, Masami Hirota pushed the new passbook into the delivery channel with a professional smile, and said, "Mr. Mori, the passbook has been replaced with a new one for you, I wonder if there is anything else that needs to be done? Or advice on financial management?"
"Thank you, Ms. Hirota Masami, no need. Well, by the way, I am a detective, and I belong to the kind of detective who is not shy. As long as I am in a good mood, I will basically accept any commission of any nature."
"Eh?" Masami Hirota was stunned, for a moment he didn't understand what the person in front of him wanted to express.
"This is my business card." Nangong Xiao didn't explain, but took out the business card, wrote a few words on it with the pen in front of the counter, and put it in the delivery channel.
"I hope we can have a good chat next time we meet."
As Nangong Xiao was speaking, she gave Hirota Masami an 'electric eye', as if a prodigal son was striking up a conversation.
Hirota Masami thought she was trying to strike up a conversation, and wanted to politely refuse, but Nangong Xiao smiled at her, then turned and left.
Seeing Nangong Xiao walk out of the bank gate and disappear, Hirota Masami felt a little funny and reached out and took out the business card from the delivery channel. Just as she was about to throw it into the trash can next to her, she accidentally found The words written by hand on the business card just now are somewhat familiar.
After taking a closer look, Hirota Masami's face changed slightly, because it was written in hiragana - みやのしほ (Miyano Shiho)!
Masami Hirota put the business card in his pocket calmly, quickly restored his professional smile, and said to a new customer who sat in front of the counter, "Madam, how can I help you?"
"I think......"
Although she listened calmly to the customer's narration, at this moment, Hirota Masami's heart was full of ripples...
Chapter 353 Single Mission - 'Save Face'
When Nangong Xiao drove to the parking lot of Mihua Hotel, he saw the familiar Beetle.
And Conan and Dr. Ari and other members of the 'Young Death Squad' are getting off the Beetle.
Conan recognized Nangong Xiao's Corolla, and after talking to Dr. A Li, he ran over quickly by himself.
Nangong Xiao put down the car window, leaned on the car window, looked at the bastard in front of him and said, "Why do you want to run out and hurt people? Haven't you been studying the winery information I gave you these two days? "
Conan held the back of his head with his hands, rolled his eyes and said, "Dad, you gave those materials, except for the code names of some important members, basically there is not much meaningful information. Talk about this organization.
By the way, I didn’t come out to harm anyone, it’s just that Dr. Ali’s friend invited Dr. Ali to come to the banquet. I was so troubled by those little ghosts that I had to follow. "
"Oh? Yusaku doesn't want to talk about the winery?"
"Yeah, maybe there are some scruples." Conan said very boringly, it seemed that the difficulty of the 'game' was a bit high, which made him unable to start, and also drained his passion.
"Scrupulous..."
"By the way, Dad, wasn't Mommy with you last night?"
"Well, what's the problem?" Nangong Xiao asked.
"Then, the problems of the three of you are settled?"
"That's right. Well, don't worry about the adults' affairs, your little friend is still waiting for you."
"Oh..." Conan glanced at the kid in the distance who was looking at this side, and suddenly felt a bit of a headache again, "Dad, can I not go to school? Learn addition, subtraction, multiplication and division with a group of kid , I think I'll go crazy if I continue."
"Ask your mother."
"Hey..." Conan sighed helplessly, he wouldn't ask such a question since his mother could get through.
"Don't sigh, it's not meaningless to go to elementary school. Although the focus is no longer on concealing your identity, you can think about it in a different direction, where you can hone your state of mind. Remember, in any situation, the first thing you should do is to be annoyed, or even out of breath. , are basically doomed to be losers, if you want to control the overall situation and get more winning chips in various game scenarios, you must always maintain a calm state of mind, and don't let your irritability control your rationality."
"It's not that easy...uh...I know." As soon as Nangong Xiao's gaze changed, Conan instinctively gave up. After responding, he changed the subject and said, "Dad, you ran to this place alone. What are you doing here?"
"For a dinner, your mother feels bored and doesn't want to come, and your concubine and aunt have to work again, so I can only come here by myself."
"That's it...then I'll go there first, and I'll go find you on the weekend. Those training materials are like heavenly scriptures, and I can't understand them at all."
"Okay...you never thought of coming to live with me?"
When asked by Nangong Xiao, Conan said directly, "No, it's fine now."
"Are you worried that Yuxiko and I are controlling you too much?"
"Uh...ahhaha...well, Dad, I'll go there first, that's all." After finishing speaking, Conan ran away.
Regarding this, Nangong Xiao didn't say much, since the child is so old, it's normal to want to have less control and more independent time, not to mention that Conan lived alone most of the time before, so he probably got used to it.
From a distance, he smiled at Dr. A Li who had already taken out the gift from the trunk of the Beetle as a greeting, and after Dr. A Li smiled and waved in response, Nangong Xiao drove to find an empty parking space by himself.
Not long after finding a parking space and parking the car, Akatsuki Nangong got on the elevator at the location given by Miwako Sato.
In the restaurant on the top floor of Mihua Hotel, after Nangong Xiao stepped into the restaurant, he soon saw Miwako Sato waving to him in a double seat by the floor-to-ceiling glass window.
After politely saying "I have an appointment" to the oncoming waiter, Akatsuki Nangong strolled to Miwako Sato.
"Sato, have you waited so long? I'm so sorry."
"No, no, Morisan, you don't need to apologize. I came early, and I didn't wait long. Ah, Morisan, please sit down." Sato Miwako greeted with a smile.
Nangong Xiao also returned a smile, and then sat down with Sato.
However, this kind of sitting mode, coupled with the atmosphere of the restaurant and the small dining table, make this place look more like a couple's seat.
In this regard, Nangong Xiao was a little fortunate that he did not bring his family members here, otherwise Miwako Sato, who had only booked a seat for two in advance, would be embarrassing.
It can also be seen from this that Miwako Sato seldom invites others to eat, at least she seldom comes to such relatively high-end restaurants.
But when Nangong Xiao sat down, he felt a "hostile" gaze secretly watching him from all directions. After a little observation from the corner of his eye, he found that they were all plainclothes. After all, although these people were very imposing, they were There is no hostility, and there is still the "righteousness" that only the military and police professions have.
This is full of 'hostility', and there are more than ten people in plain clothes, so Nangong Xiao couldn't help complaining, "Sato, is the Metropolitan Police Department busy?"
Miwako Sato, who had just told the waiter that the food could be served, tilted her head in doubt, and said, "That's not true, I have time to invite Maori-san only when I am on my turn today. Normally, don't just sit down and enjoy it like this." It's lunch time, and sometimes I'm so busy that I don't even have time to eat."
—— Sato didn't notice those plain clothes...
Nangong Xiao blinked, and finally ignored those idle and flustered plainclothes, but chatted with Miwako Sato.
Today, Miwako Sato changed out of the lady's business suit she usually wears, but she is clearly going to an appointment, but she wears more casual and leisurely clothes.Coincidentally, Nangong Xiao, as usual, dressed as a young man on the street, actually matched Miwako Sato's outfit very well.
Also because of this, the conversation between Akatsuki Nangong and Miwako Sato seemed more like an intimacy between lovers. As a result, a group of bachelor plainclothes men in the Metropolitan Police Department successively uttered heartbreaking sounds that outsiders could not hear.
However, this has nothing to do with Nangong Xiao. Nangong Xiao really came to the appointment because of the character in the original work of 'giving face' to Miwako Sato. Without any wrong thoughts, he would only treat Miwako Sato with the attitude of an elder to a junior. .
After all, when it comes to 'age', Nangong Xiao is only a few years younger than Sato Miwako's father. In terms of resume, Nangong Xiao is also a real senior, to be precise, the kind of senior who left the job halfway.
Therefore, it is not a problem to treat the younger generation with the attitude of the elders.
It's just that the apparent age of the two seems a bit strange, especially the younger Nangong Xiao, which makes this place look more like a meeting scene of "sibling love".
This is also the root cause of the heartbreak of those bachelor plainclothes police officers.
It's just regrettable, but also reasonable, that the dinner was only halfway through when screams were heard from downstairs.
Don't think too much, that bastard is 'working hard' again.
As a policeman, Miwako Sato could not sit still, so she said to Nangong Xiao with an apologetic face, "Maori-san, that..."
"Go, since you have met, you can't stand by and watch, I understand that."
"Then I'll... eh? Morisan won't go down and have a look?" Miwako Sato said a little confused.
"I'm planning to change careers. Well, maybe it won't be long before I'm just a coffee shop owner."
"That's it...then I'll go down first, I'm sorry Maurice-san."
When Miwako Sato ran downstairs, all the bachelors in plainclothes from the Metropolitan Police Department got up, and the scene shocked the already agitated crowd in the restaurant.
But those plainclothes didn't pay attention, they just glanced at Nangong Xiao more or less, and then ran downstairs quickly.
Regarding this, Nangong Xiao sighed a little. Although she didn't know what happened downstairs, there must have been some bad criminal incidents. In a sense, the criminals were committing crimes under the noses of the police. At this time, he was really curious about the shadow area in the prisoner's heart.
Adhering to the attitude that wasting food is shameful, after calmly 'destroying' all the food on the table, including Miwako Sato, Nangong Xiao asked the waiter to pay the bill, and by the way, asked the waiter to find out about the situation downstairs.
After some understanding, Nangong Xiao also knew that there was a murder case in the restaurant downstairs. It seemed that someone secretly poisoned a famous socialite under the watchful eyes of the public. Now the police have sealed off the scene for investigation investigation.
Nangong Xiao didn't care about this, and after giving the waiter some tips, she planned to leave directly.
But when he just walked out of the restaurant, he was stopped by someone.
"Maurison, what a coincidence."
The one who stopped Nangong Xiao was Yoko Okino, who was wearing sunglasses and a hat with a large brim, and was dressed in a low-key manner.
And Yoko Okino was not accompanied by Sakae Yamagishi, but a middle-aged lady who was a bit fat. I think this is the new manager.
"Hello Miss Okino." Nangong Xiao responded with a polite smile.
"Maori-san, thank you for the previous incident. I have been busy with the aftermath recently, so I didn't come to thank you in person. It's my fault." Yoko Okino bowed quickly, and the middle-aged lady followed suit.
"You're welcome, I have already received the final payment of the entrustment, there is no need for this." Nangong Xiao shook his head and said.
"But..." Okino Yoko still had an apologetic expression.
Nangong Xiao interrupted with a wave of her hand, and said, "The aftermath was handled very well, um, I read the news."
