Keep busy in the world of Detective Conan
Chapter 42: "Newcomer" Appears & Gaining a Little Fangirl Ayumi (3)
After that, a few days later, Hua Lantian got up early in the morning and took Asami Nagisa to the art gallery and restaurant which had been completely completed. As for Zhufu Jingguang, he let him take a few days off first.
Hua Lantian was originally planning to go and fleece his cousin Kidd, the washing machine guy, but he thought about it and decided it was too early to go find Kidd now. He should wait until Kidd challenged the Suzuki family for the first time in the science world before going to find him. This way he would feel at ease.
So he took matters into his own hands and made Asami Minami as a high-end mask for Edogawa Makoto.
"Makoto, I'll explain the operating regulations to you in a moment. You and Director Ochiai will each be in charge of a different location. After Jingguang returns from his vacation, I'll have him take over your position. Then you can go work at the hospital or something like that that I'll arrange for you to do...!"
Hua Lantian was driving while talking to Ma Chengshi who was sitting next to him.
"Okay, Lan Tian, I'm fine with that. Even if you keep me working there..."
Asami replied.
"How can that be? I'm a ruthless capitalist. How can I let you not work at your post...!"
Hua Lantian said with deep sorrow, pretending to be a black-hearted capitalist.
"Hahaha, you're such a jokester, Lan Tian. Why didn't I realize it before? If you're a black-hearted capitalist, then there are no good people in this world...!"
Asanami said this seriously, and at the same time praised him sincerely.
"Haha, thank you so much! It's not as good as you say...!"
Hua Lantian smiled happily. He thought that it would be better to let Ma Chengshi feel back to normal from those bad feelings. Wouldn't that be the way to live a better life?
“OK, we’re here…!”
Hua Lantian stopped the car and pointed the two buildings in front of him to Ma Chengshi.
One is the art museum that everyone is familiar with. Although the appearance has not changed much as before, the interior decoration has been redesigned, and Hua Lantian has also set up a place specifically for selling cultural and creative products.
The other is the house next door, which Hua Lantian later bought at a high price. There are already large words "trial opening" posted on a rather large automatic door. Since advance notice has been given, there are already people waiting outside the two buildings.
"Don't be surprised so early. I'll show you the new art museum and cafeteria management models later...!"
Hua Lantian patted Ma Chengshi, who was already a little surprised, then shook his hand and said mysteriously.
"Then I'll wait and see, Lantian. It looks like this period of work will be very interesting, and I can learn a lot...!"
Ma Shengshi said with some curiosity and excitement, he was already full of energy.
"You're finally here, Lantian. Now we're ready to notify everyone. Let's begin...!"
Director Ochiai saw Hua Lantian's car from a distance, and then hurried over and said that he had been looking forward to this day for a long time.
"Alright, let's get started, Director Ochiai. I know you can't wait, hahahaha...!"
Hua Lantian saw Director Ochiai who looked impatient, and said with a smile.
"Okay, I'll have them start promoting and opening the business right away...!"
Director Ochiai said this, then took out a walkie-talkie and spoke a few words into it.
Soon after, many people came one after another, led by Mr. Iijima.
"Mr. Hua, it's been a long time since I last saw you. Thank you so much for your support and attention to the art museum!"
Mr. Iijima saw Hua Lantian and walked up to him excitedly, took Hua Lantian's hand and said politely.
"Mr. Iijima, you're too polite, but I should call you Director Iijima now, hahahaha. Congratulations on your promotion, and I hope your passion for the Medieval Museum remains unchanged...!"
Hua Lantian grabbed his hand and spoke to him seriously. He didn't want Mr. Iijima to become complacent because of a momentary success.
"Don't worry, I promise I won't let you down. I will continue to personally take good care of these treasures of human art...!"
Iijima immediately let go of his hand, stood up straight, and patted his chest to make a promise.
"Just hearing your words is enough. Okay everyone, I don't expect to achieve anything too big, but I hope you all can truly enjoy this job and work diligently. You won't lack what you deserve. Don't worry, even if I have to pay out of my own pocket, I will still provide you with adequate wages and benefits...!"
Hua Lantian made this promise to all the staff, whether they were from the art gallery or the restaurant. Of course, this was also a brainwashing exercise ( ̄w ̄;)
“Oh…!!! Long live the boss…!!!”
All the employees were full of enthusiasm and responded well to their boss. Before coming to work, they knew that the boss was very rich and a very nice person, so they didn't have to worry about things like layoffs for strange reasons.
(Here I copy a description of Conan's story background: The "Detective Conan" series was born in the early 1990s, which happened to be the period when Japan's economic bubble burst and society entered the Great Depression.
Therefore, from the very beginning, the emergence of Conan reflected the heavy, forbearing and helpless psychology of the Japanese people at that time.
Plots like "body shrinking, abilities unable to function," and "using a voice changer to reason behind the scenes" perfectly reflect this phenomenon. The invisible pressure posed by the Black Organization and the childhood nightmare "Little Black Man," as well as the old woman in the "Blue Castle Murder Case" who killed everyone in search of treasure, only to have her dream shattered, also offer a certain irony of reality.
Well, the author admits that he was lazy, there is really nothing he can do ╮(╯▽╰)╭ But what he said is not wrong. If you have read Crayon Shin-chan, you should know that Shin-chan often worries or jokes about Hiroshi being fired, and Hiroshi and Misae are also often worried.
I'm going to be a bit long-winded here. Some of the people in the front of the Chinese dubbing are exactly the same as Crayon Shin-chan (●__●))
"Okay, everyone, go back to your posts. I'm going to the restaurant first to check the final inspection results and see if there's any formaldehyde or anything like that that hasn't been eliminated. If everything's OK, we'll start receiving product at noon today and then begin a trial run. No matter what, we'll officially open in ten days. The publicity team will also be in their positions after receiving the stock and then we'll be off...!"
After saying that, Hua Lantian took Ma Chengshi to the barbecue, seafood and hotpot buffet restaurant that was common in China in the future. The decoration style was similar to that of some well-known brand stores in the future.
"Ding ding ding...!" Hua Lantian used the testing machine brought by the restaurant's second-in-command, the restaurant manager Inoue Zizi (a random name), to check and found that the values were all normal. He returned the instrument to Manager Inoue with great satisfaction.
"Alright, Inoue, everything's fine, we can get started...! Work hard, and I hope our restaurant can be a homophone of your name. Let's have a buffet today, so we can make a lot of money, and you can get a big bonus...!"
Hua Lantian continued to paint a achievable picture for his employees, then patted the store manager Inoue on the shoulder and took Asami to the medieval art museum next door. He couldn't disturb their next work. After all, there would be a lot of things to do, and they had to finish them before noon to start the trial operation smoothly.
"No problem, leave it to me, Boss...!"
Manager Inoue felt greatly encouraged and honored. He gave a nonsensical salute and then quickly picked up the intercom to start calling people to work.
They soon arrived at the nearby Medieval Art Museum, which was already bustling with activity. Every staff member hurriedly checked some things in the museum to make sure there were no problems.
Our manager Iijima also took the initiative to speed up the progress, while Director Ochiai was giving orders at the top of his voice.
“Director Ochiai, Director Ochiai, how are the preparations going…!”
Hua Lantian moved closer to Director Ochiai and called out to him. He had already called out to him several times, but Director Ochiai was too focused on his own command and didn't pay attention to Hua Lantian's words.
Director Ochiai finally heard what Hua Lantian said as he got closer. He turned around and looked at his boss in surprise. He didn't expect that his boss would come so soon. He urged the employees again, and then started talking to Hua Lantian.
"Lan Tian, you're here so soon! We still have a little time to get ready, but don't worry, it won't delay the reopening...!"
Director Ochiai quickly made the assurance. He really didn't want to see the art museum sitting there alone anymore. During the renovation period, the art museum was deserted except for the decorators.
"Okay, that's okay. The promotional vehicle just left a while ago, and the visitors today will basically be the customers from the restaurant next door and previous guests. But I heard that Teitan University is having its anniversary celebration today, so a lot of people might be attracted there. This is also an opportunity. They can come have dinner with us...!"
Hua Lantian thought of something and said.
Suddenly, when talking about the Teitan University anniversary, a light bulb went off in his head. He remembered that this was the case of Ayumi's disappearance, which ended up being a misunderstanding.
It seems like I can just let Jingguang show off his presence in front of the Suicide Boys Group...! Even better, I'd like to make Ayumi a loyal fan.
Thinking of this, he greeted Director Ochiai first, then asked Chengshi to take a look first, and he would come back later to tell him about the new operating methods of the two places.
"Du...~ Hey, Jingguang, are you awake? I just thought of something good..."
"I just got up. Do you think everyone is as lazy as you? I don't believe you have anything good to offer me..."
Zhu Fujingguang on the other end of the phone had already shown a look of suspicion.
"Look, the kids are going to the park today. Could you pick them up and bring them to our restaurant for dinner? It'll also help spread the word... You can join us for dinner later. We won't be going back home for dinner today. Let's just try our food and see how it goes..."
"Oh, is that so? Sure. Then I'll make a quick lunch and then go find them. That way, I can eat as much as I want in the evening. I can also play games with those cute kids and reminisce about the happy times of my childhood, hahaha..."
Zhu Fu Jingguang's loud laughter came from the other end of the phone, and Hua Lantian also smiled knowingly when he heard it.
"Okay, that's it, let's get back to work...! Beep...~"
The scene turns to Hua Lantian's house at this time. Since they haven't started working officially recently, Zhu Fushigaki and Masami Yumi have not moved out yet and are temporarily living in Hua Lantian's house.
Zhu Fu Jingguang put down the phone with a dark face. Before he could say goodbye, Hua Lantian hung up on him. He shook his head helplessly, then got up from the slumped sofa, walked to the entrance and took out a set of car keys, which were Ford Windstars.
He drove out of the mansion and headed to the Rice Flower Park (or so it should be) where a few kids were.
And now in our Beika Park, Conan is performing his personal reasoning show, no, to be more precise, he is using reasoning to play the ghost to catch people, he is raising his fingers one by one with more and more confidence,
"This is absolutely impossible. This is a complete crime. Now I understand your tricks completely! Because basically, you made three major mistakes.
First, there are empty cans scattered unnaturally around the trash can. Just by looking at the number of empty cans lying outside, you can tell that there must be something hidden in the trash can;
Secondly, the popsicle you were eating just now fell next to the empty can, so you hurriedly hid it, and the leftovers accidentally fell to the ground;
The third point, which is also the decisive evidence, is that through the gap in the empty can, you can see your huge butt...! Yuantai! "
"You're so noisy, you bastard!" Genta was so irritated by Conan's teasing that he jumped out of the trash can where he was hiding, clenched his fists and yelled at him.
"Ayumi, I found Genta too~ You can come back~" Conan ignored Genta who was already angry and embarrassed, and said to a blue and yellow badge on his chest.
Ayumi's voice came from the badge, "Really? How boring! Conan isn't a ghost at all, he's a detective, that's why it ends so quickly~"
As for Conan, he was of course speechless. After all, he was the famous high school detective, Washing Machine, and yet he was playing hide-and-seek in the park.
At this time, Mitsuhiko stood up and relaxed his stiff body, patted the badge on his chest, and introduced the new science props made by Professor Agasa, and also praised the professor, "This badge is the best, D E T E C T I V E B O Y S, the Junior Detective Team~"
"We are the only elementary school students in the world who have this kind of badge!" Genta also came over and said happily. Although they sometimes don't like the arrogant Conan, they still like Professor Agasa very much, especially since the professor often makes fun and useful new equipment for them to facilitate their detective team activities.
Conan responded to him a little embarrassedly, "That's it..." Thinking back to when the doctor introduced this thing to him, he was a little speechless. Why would he give these kids this kind of equipment?
"It has a built-in ultra-compact radio transmitter and receiver. If you adjust the frequency using the dial inside, you can use the radio to talk."
"I think it's just for playing children's games!"
(Don’t worry, you’ll know how useful this thing is later!)
Just after Ayumi came back, they had a friendly exchange, and then Conan happened to see the serial kidnapping and murder case at that time.
Just when they realized that they didn't find Ayumi, Conan noticed two people covering the trunk of the car, and one of them urged the other.
But he didn't pay much attention to such a common thing. Later, he finally decided to call Ayumi with the detective badge.
Just when they turned up the volume and finally called Ayumi, someone suddenly appeared behind them, and a magnetic voice came, "What's wrong, kids? It seems that you are in trouble..."
