"Something happened to that guy over there."

"Something happened? What happened?" After hearing the fat man's words, Huajian Yingluo, who was sitting next to him, suddenly lit up her eyes with excitement.

"I don't know what it is exactly, but it's said that a deal that Pingshan Shanqi was in charge of went wrong, and an important item was lost."

"Pingshan Fanqi throwing things, this is really funny."

"The key point is, it's not as simple as just throwing things away." The fat man's eyes flickered slightly, and his tone was unclear whether it was mocking or sighing.

"According to my old friend, Pingshan Shanqi left behind this fate card an hour ago."

"It's broken!"

Chapter 126: It's getting more and more interesting~

"The life card is broken."

After hearing the fat man's speech, everyone in the tavern fell silent.

Although they were not in the same camp and the relationship between the two sides was hostile enough, no matter how they complained, everyone present took Pingshan Shanqi's strength to heart.

If his full strength is unleashed, there will be no more than five people present who can defeat Pingshan Shanqi.

but.

"Impossible. If this were Tokyo, there would be no way we wouldn't feel the explosive force of Hirayama Sanji." The guest named Takeuchi Ishiran frowned and spoke with a thoughtful look.

"A battle of that level wouldn't be as silent as it is now."

"I agree with Shi Lan." Gu Zhai Ci Rui nodded slightly, and his expression became serious.

"Could it be that this is just a smokescreen over there, trying to hide their plans?"

"I had the same suspicion at first, but the source of the information is certain. Pingshan Shanqi's brand name was indeed broken into pieces." Shaking his head slightly, the fat man also believed in his source of information.

"According to what you said, Pingshan Shanqi was killed without even having the chance to burst out with his full strength? I can't believe it!" After taking a deep breath, Gu Zhai Ci Rui said seriously.

"I didn't believe it at first, but, oh, it seems that Mr. Kong has received the news." The fat man who was about to say something suddenly changed his expression and started drinking with a smile.

"There is no doubt about it, Pingshan Shanqi is dead." When everyone looked at Kong Lao behind the counter, Kong Lao slowly opened his eyes which had been closed at some point, and his voice was calm and distant.

"He's really dead." He blinked his eyes. Compared to the others, Huajian Yingluo looked a lot more relaxed.

"I don't remember anyone in Tokyo who could do this. People from other regions? That's not possible. It's ridiculous that the fat guy can't even transform into his true form."

"Hey, hey, how did the fat guy provoke you? Can you please be more careful with your words?" Shanjian Manli, who was also a fat man, felt like he was being criticized after glancing at Huajian Yingluo beside him unhappily.

"Who cares about you? We are discussing Pingshan Shanqi now, okay? Why are you so narcissistic?" He glanced at the fat man with disdain. Huajian Yingluo was swinging her legs leisurely, and her scallion-white fingers were tapping lightly on the table. Although her facial expression looked relaxed, her eyes were already looking at Kong Lao behind the counter.

"Is it possible that..."

"No matter who it is, it's conceivable that Tokyo will be in chaos." Holding the tea that had been brewed at who knows when, Kong Lao narrowed his eyes again.

"Everyone please work harder these days."

"It's my duty." After hearing what Mr. Kong said, everyone in the tavern nodded and responded with a smile.

"Don't let your brain get dulled by holding it in for too long." Huajian Yingluo picked up another piece of fish and put it into her mouth, looking at everyone with a smile.

"It's true you can take action, but remember to stay away from those people like Dianyingdao. Don't cause trouble for no reason."

"Don't worry, we all know."

"Speaking of which, should we tell Sister Jing to be careful?" Touching his head, the fat man thought of something and said to Huajian Yingluo beside him.

After all, in the fat man's opinion, the person who is closest to Shizuka Hiratsuka in the entire tavern is this guy who pretends to be young and doesn't allow others to say anything about him.

The most important thing is that this person seriously placed cherry butterflies for surveillance in the school where other people work, which made the fat man completely at a loss as to how to complain.

Is it really because I have been lonely for too long that my psychology has become a little abnormal?

Of course, the fat man would never say such words in front of Huajian Yingluo.

Don't be fooled by the fact that he looks the youngest guy in this tavern, but in terms of actual strength, Huajian Yingluo is second only to Kong Lao.

For someone like you, it’s better not to provoke the tiger’s whiskers.

"Don't worry, I have released cherry butterflies at Brother Jing's place. If anything happens, I will find out immediately." She smiled and shook her finger. She saw the fat man's subtle look, but Huajian Yingluo didn't care at all.

"But unfortunately, because of the existence of Xiao Hei, the cherry butterflies on my side can't get too close." When talking about this, Huajian Yingluo also raised her head with great interest.

"Mr. Kong, what do you say?"

"Just keep moving as normal. There's no need to do anything special."

"That's right. If they underestimate Brother Jing's strange ability, they will suffer a great loss~"

. . .

"If you want to authenticate antiques, I do know someone, but he's no longer in Japan. If you're not in a hurry, Jing, you can wait until I get back."

When Shizuka Hiratsuka woke up early the next morning, she received a reply from Fujiko.

It was similar to what Shizuka Hiratsuka was thinking, she often stole things internationally... Fujiko, who was borrowing things, had many acquaintances in this area, but without Fujiko's intervention, the other party might not pay any attention to her.

"Wait until Fujiko comes back?" Shizuka Hiratsuka scratched her head and started thinking while sitting at the dining table eating the simple breakfast she made.

First of all, what Shizuka Hiratsuka wants to eliminate is the help from the underworld. Although her family is also involved in this kind of thing, Shizuka Hiratsuka doesn't believe that the mysterious organization is not familiar with the underworld in Japan.

So, should we ask Dr. Agasa?

Blinking, as the person with the highest degree in Shizuka Hiratsuka's interpersonal relationships, Dr. Agasa still has a high status in Shizuka Hiratsuka's heart.

"If you have time, go ask." She finished her breakfast in two or three bites and threw it into the dishwasher. Hiratsuka Shizuka changed her clothes and decided not to take Shuai Shuai with her.

"Be good and stay at home. I'll bring you some dried fish when I come back in the evening." Shizuka Hiratsuka squatted down, scratched Shuai Shuai's chin, and closed the door with a smile.

"Click~" Watching the door slowly close, the cute expression on Shuai Shuai's face also faded.

Shuai Shuai moved his feet lightly and jumped onto the dining table. He moved his eyes slightly and glanced at the butterfly that looked like petals lying in a hidden corner outside the window.

The corners of his mouth curled up slightly, revealing a bland and somewhat disdainful smile, and his handsome figure disappeared straight from the dining table.

"Hehe, as expected, things are getting more and more interesting~" Clapping her hands, Huajian Yingluo, who was standing in a room, suddenly laughed.

"I'm done here too, I wonder how others are doing~"

With her hands behind her back, Huajian Yingluo skipped out of the room like a child on an outing.

All that was left was a dark red on the ground and thick branches that were constantly changing and disappearing all over the room.

Chapter 127 Where are you now!

"You mean, this guy just came to your house and helped find a kidnapped girl?"

Holding the steering wheel with one hand, Shizuka Hiratsuka specially rented a normal car to store her things.

After dinner, they came downstairs to Xiaolan's house. They were too lazy to go up and say hello to Kogoro. They picked up Xiaolan and Conan who were already waiting there, and Shizuka Hiratsuka skillfully turned the car around and drove towards a nearby shopping mall that she was quite familiar with.

Sitting in the car, I wanted to chat casually to make the atmosphere less quiet, but as soon as I got in the car, Xiaolan, like showing off her own outstanding child, took the initiative to talk to Shizuka Hiratsuka about what she saw and heard last night.

At first, I didn't take it too seriously, but the more I listened to Xiaolan's story, the more wrong Hiratsuka Shizuka's expression seemed.

Finally, when he stopped at an intersection, he turned his head and glanced at Conan who was sitting quietly in the back.

"What's wrong, Aunt Shizuka?" He blinked dryly. Because of Shizuka Hiratsuka's joking remarks yesterday, Conan still felt a little uneasy when facing Shizuka Hiratsuka.

"Hey, you're such a good kid, why do you have to learn from that brat Shinichi?" Po shook his head helplessly, and Shizuka Hiratsuka stepped lightly on the accelerator, and the car started again.

"I admire Shinichi the most. I want to be a detective when I grow up!" Conan waved his hands excitedly. While feeling shy in his heart, he skillfully pretended to be an innocent child and expressed his true feelings.

"Yes, yes, that brat Shinichi, he can't do it himself, and now he wants to lead the kids astray." The disgust in his eyes gradually became stronger. Shizuka Hiratsuka, who originally had no prejudice against detectives, now couldn't help but complain.

"Let me make this clear first, Conan. I can't stop you if you like to play detective games like Shinichi, but you have to remember one thing." Holding the steering wheel with one hand, Shizuka Hiratsuka took a piece of gum and put it in her mouth.

"You're still a child now. Don't be like Shinichi when he was little. You always get carried away and do things beyond your capabilities. If you encounter danger, it's no joke."

"Yes, I understand, Aunt Shizuka!" He nodded obediently. Conan had been scolded like this by Hiratsuka Shizuka when he was a child, but he didn't feel unhappy about it.

Anyway, I probably won’t listen to it by then.

"He seems to be quite sensible, but I don't know what he is like in reality." After being a teacher for so many years, Shizuka Hiratsuka is still good at judging people.

Just by taking a quick glance through the rearview mirror, Shizuka Hiratsuka knew that Conan had the same character as Shinichi when he was a child, and she probably couldn't persuade him.

"Forget it, I'm not related to him, so it's not my place to interfere." Shizuka Hiratsuka shrugged indifferently and looked at Xiaolan beside her.

"Speaking of which, Xiaolan, where is Conan going to school?"

"Eh, going to school?" Xiaolan was stunned by Hiratsuka Shizuka's sudden question. She blinked blankly and didn't react for a while.

"I was in school at that time." After taking a look at Xiaolan's cute look, Shizuka Hiratsuka shook her head with a smile.

"Although Kogoro's business is not good, he is often away from home because he is working. You also have to go to school. We can't let Conan stay at home alone."

"Besides, he's at the right age to go to school."

"That's right, Aunt Jing, I would have forgotten if you hadn't told me." Scratching her hair a little embarrassedly, Xiaolan turned her head and looked at Conan, who suddenly looked a little hopeless.

"At Conan's age, well, I'll ask Dad to go to Teitan Elementary School and ask him."

"Teitan Elementary School? Then you are indeed more familiar with it." Nodding with a smile, Shizuka Hiratsuka parked the car steadily in the shopping mall's parking lot.

"Let's go... ok?" After a slight pause in getting out of the car, Shizuka Hiratsuka took out her cell phone and blinked slightly.

"Aunt Jing?"

"It's okay, take Conan to the elevator first, I'll be there soon." Shizuka Hiratsuka said casually, smiling and shaking her head.

"Okay." Without any doubt, Xiaolan got out of the car and walked slowly towards the elevator with Conan.

After glancing at Ran and Conan walking away through the car window, Shizuka Hiratsuka turned on her cell phone, glanced at the message on the email, and called back.

"Hey, you're not a good kid if you're so impatient~" A lazy and charming voice came from the phone. Hearing this familiar voice, Shizuka Hiratsuka did not laugh helplessly as usual, but slowly frowned.

"Fujiko, what does your email mean?"

"That's what the email means~" Fujiko seemed not to hear the seriousness in Hiratsuka Shizuka's voice, and her tone remained light and light.

"If that's the case, I can't accept it." Shizuka Hiratsuka took out a cigarette box from her trouser pocket and lit one with one hand.

"They have become a frequent presence in my life, and given the current situation, I can no longer just withdraw and be safe."

"Let me pretend I know nothing and give up the investigation, Fujiko. Even if that's what you said, I can't accept it."

"Ah, stubborn baby Shizuka is also very charming." Hiratsuka Shizuka was very serious, but Fujiko laughed instead.

"I guessed from the beginning that you wouldn't agree, Xiaojing, but I still wanted to give it a try."

"Fujiko." Just when Fujiko was about to say something, Shizuka Hiratsuka's already frowned brows tightened even more.

Although Fujiko kept talking to herself in a light voice, Shizuka Hiratsuka, who had practiced martial arts for many years and had a deep understanding of the human body, was still keenly aware of something.

"You, are hurt?!"

"...You are worthy of being my baby. You and I really have a spiritual connection." There was silence for a moment on the other end of the phone. As if knowing that she could not deceive Hiratsuka Shizuka, Fujiko's smiling voice sounded again.

But this time he no longer pretended to be relaxed, and the lack of confidence in his tone was immediately apparent.

"Where are you now? Is the area safe?"

"Okay, okay, don't be anxious, Xiaojing." Hearing the anxious tone of Shizuka Hiratsuka on the other end of the phone, Fujiko smiled happily instead.

"It was just a minor accident where I got shot. It's not a serious injury. And I'm in a very safe place now. Don't worry. They won't be able to find me until I recover slowly here."

"Now is not the time to joke." Shizuka Hiratsuka was not distracted by Fujiko's relaxed tone. She could hear from Fujiko's tone how serious her injuries were.

"Where are you now!"

Chapter 128 Something is wrong

“I’m in South Africa now.”

Hearing the determination in Shizuka Hiratsuka's words, Fujiko blinked and gently told where she was.

"Wait, I..."
