The Detective Conan's Luck-Changer: Ran Begs for Mercy at the Start

Tomoko Suzuki could not refute the reasons given by Karuta Itake.

However, the ring wasn't anything famous, so Suzuki Tomoko let Itake Karuta take it.

Then, Izuki Karuta lowered her voice:

“Ms. Tomoko, my business scope is very broad.”

"Legal or illegal, you can come to me with anything you need."

"As for the compensation, it will be the same as this time."

“Looking forward to our next cooperation.”

Izuki Karuta didn't want to miss out on the remaining treasures.

"...I also look forward to the next collaboration."

Tomoko Suzuki didn't rule out anything further, and then left the treasure vault, reminding Sonoko to remember to close the door before she left.

There are cameras in every corner of the treasure vault, so there's no worry about anyone stealing anything.

It was only then that Ran Mouri snapped out of her daze, overwhelmed by the sight of countless money figures.

However, Ran Mouri isn't the type to be obsessed with money, and after wandering around for a few more minutes, she gradually got used to it.

The three left the treasure vault.

Once the garden door is closed, the mechanical lock automatically engages, making it difficult to open.

The two best friends were both curious about what treasure Yizhu Qingtian had chosen.

Izuki Karuta gave the same answer as always: "It's pleasing to the eye."

I showed the ring to both girls, and they both thought the band was pretty, but the gemstone was ordinary.

"The meaning of the ring is quite extraordinary."

"Who does Mr. Yizhu intend to give the ring to?"

"Xiao Lan?"

Sonoko started gossiping and speculating.

Soon after, Ran Mouri pinched his waist, making him wince in pain.

Izuki Shizuta gently shook her head, "Rings given as gifts are always in pairs; this single ring is just something I wanted myself."

Sonoko was a little disappointed at not getting the answer she wanted, feeling like she'd been pinched for nothing.

Afterwards, Itake Maeda and Mouri Ran once again rode in the Suzuki family's car and returned home.

The anniversary celebration started at 7 p.m., followed by a two-hour flight, and then a visit to the Suzuki family home.

Now, Izuki Karuta returned home around 10 p.m., a little earlier than last time.

A small lamp was on in the living room. When Izuki Shizuta entered, she found Sherry lying on the sofa again.

This time, however, Shirley was asleep.

In response, Izuki Karuta smiled.

He stepped forward, bent down, and gently touched Shirley's cherry lips.

"I knew you were up to something bad again!"

Shirley opened her eyes instantly, jumped up from the sofa, and ran away quickly.

Izuki Shizuta chuckled inwardly.

Sulli's acting in pretending to be asleep was as bad as ever.

How could someone be asleep if their breathing and heart rate are irregular?

After teasing Shirley,

Izuki Karita took a quick shower.

He then returned to his room and enveloped the newly acquired ring with his malevolent energy.

A soft popping sound rang out in the air.

The unremarkable gemstone separated from the ring.

Yi Zhuqingtian used her cultivation technique to carefully extract the essence of heaven and earth from the unknown gemstone.

It took a full eight hours to drain the essence of heaven and earth from the gemstone, after which it turned into powder and dissipated in the wind.

Moreover, the amount of essence of heaven and earth absorbed this time was quite substantial, already reaching forty percent of the amount needed for the next breakthrough.

Unfortunately, judging from Tomoko Suzuki's attitude, there is probably no chance of collaborating again in the near future.

However, it's not something that can be gathered in a short time.

After all, it's really hard to encounter evil spirits unless you're unlucky and they come knocking on your door.

For example, at the anniversary celebration I attended last night, there were more than 500 wealthy and influential guests, but the largest number of attendees was only a little over 1,000.

Most of the people who come to Izuki Karuta's place on weekdays are people who have something on their mind, are in trouble, or feel unlucky.

These people were already unlucky, and Izuki Qingtian had to select the most unlucky ones to absorb tens of thousands of evil energy points.

Searching aimlessly on the street is not only inefficient, but also tiring.

Following the anniversary celebration, the media extensively reported on Kaito Kid's first failed heist.

This kind of news, which is often discussed casually, has always been of great interest to the public.

While marveling at how the Suzuki Foundation truly lived up to its reputation, even Kaito Kid had to run into trouble.

The name Izuki Karuta has also come into the view of more people.

As a result, the number of calls made to make appointments has increased dramatically every day.

The number jumped directly to nearly two hundred.

Yi Zhuqingtian had just broken through to a new level of cultivation, absorbing energy eight times a day, which was no longer enough.

The number of unlucky people has also increased.

In just two days, Izuki Qing Tian absorbed a total of 17 units of malevolent energy.

While feeling slightly tired, I was also pleased with the timely replenishment of my negative energy.

Two days later, Itake Karuta had a Saturday off.

And it was discovered that it was time for Eri Kisaki to fulfill her contract again.

At noon, Izuki Karuta arrived at Eri Kisaki's law firm.

This is Izuki Karuta's first time here.

Upon entering the office, I saw Midori Kuriyama.

She is Eri Kisaki's assistant and also works as a receptionist at the agency.

While not exactly beautiful, it's pleasing to the eye.

"Is this Mr. Izuki? I've seen you on TV."

"It's just that the timing is inconvenient. Teachers usually rest for a while after lunch, so we'll have to wait for half an hour."

"If they are disturbed, the teacher's mood may be worse than usual."

Kuriyama Midori has a basic understanding of Itake Karuta.

I've mainly seen it on TV once or twice, and I've also occasionally heard about it from Eri Kisaki.

However, Eri Kisaki never spoke kindly about Izuki Karuta.

Kuriyama Midori speculated that the two's relationship was probably not good, and that if she went in to disturb them at this time, it might add fuel to the fire.

Not to mention, Eri Kisaki has been in a bad mood lately, and is noticeably irritable and absent-minded.

There were even some minor oversights at work.

Fortunately, Eri Kisaki is exceptionally capable, and even if there are oversights, she can resolve them on the spot.

"Don't worry, I've already made an appointment with Attorney Fei."

Izuki Qingtian said something simple, then gently turned the doorknob and went inside.

He then closed the door behind him.

"Huh? The teacher didn't lock the office door before taking a nap?"

"Was it really pre-arranged?"

Kuriyama Midori looked puzzled.

Eri Kisaki didn't mention anything about having a date with Karuichi Itake today.

Did you forget?

Considering Eri Kisaki's work situation recently, Midori Kuriyama felt that this must be the case.

in the office,

Izuki Qingtian used her malevolent energy to unlock the door and quietly entered.
