Chapter 1048

Amuro Toru: "..."

"Sorry, I still have something to do." He raised his hand to hold Jiang Xia, and pushed the person forward skillfully, "You can find him to investigate the case."

"Hmph, just a so-called 'threat letter', I want to ask detectives for help, do I look like the kind of woman who can't hold back?"

Okano Rika shook her sleeves and let out a cold snort of disdain from her nose.

After humming, she arrogantly glanced at the person who was pushed out by An Shitou, her eyes fell on Jiang Xia, and her tone gradually became less firm.

After a while, Rika Okano said thoughtfully:

"However, it's still a while before the banquet starts, so if you're idle, you'll be idle. If you want to help, I'll reluctantly agree - after the matter is over, I can send you a set of autographs for you to take. Show off to those around you."

Suzuki Sonoko: "..."

Conan: "..."

Toru Amuro is used to seeing clients with various temperaments, and has no special reaction to Okano Rika's attitude.

He whispered to Jiang Xia behind him: "If you encounter a suspicious person, contact me immediately. Besides..." He sighed, "Be careful - there may be other cadres nearby tonight."

Jiang Xia was startled and nodded, his expression became a little more serious.

His eyes swept across the hall, as if he was instinctively looking for that dangerous "other cadre".

An Shi was relieved to see Jiang Xia raised his guard.

He took the tray and quickly slipped away.

A few meters away, Conan turned his head and caught a glimpse of the scene just now. He originally wanted to get close and eavesdrop.

However, in order to solicit customers, Conan went to Rika Okano and the others. When he came back to his senses and wanted to come over, Amuro had already left.

Conan: "..."

He had no choice but to walk to Jiang Xia's side, glanced at An Shitou's back, and asked cautiously, "What did he say just now?"... sneakily, he always felt that the boss was playing some tricks.

Jiang Xia came back to his senses, looked down at Conan, and looked embarrassed that he wanted to tell him, but couldn't say it: "It's a secret matter of the firm, it's related to the client."

"That's it..." Conan resigned unwillinglyalthough he was skeptical about the authenticity of the answer, but Jiang Xia said so, and if he asked again, he probably wouldn't be able to ask anything.

is debating whether to secretly follow Toru Amuro.

At this moment, a voice from the side interjected.

"Well, hello."

Rika Okano's assistantthe woman wearing a suit and skirt came over.

She looked at the two high school students in front of her, especially an elementary school student. Since she seldom had contact with such a young work partner, she seemed a little helpless. After a few seconds, she returned to work.

"I'm Sui Ozaki, Miss Rika Okano's assistant." She bowed lightly to the three of them, then stood up and gestured to the corridor behind her, "--Please come here with me. "

Of course, the threat letter shouldn't be discussed in public.

Ozaki Cui quickly took the three and followed up with Okano Rika who was walking in front of her.

The group came to an elegant lounge.

The rest room was filled with the fragrance of flowers, Ozaki Sui asked them to sit down at the coffee table and poured a few cups of tea.

After several weeks of li, she carefully took out an envelope and placed it in front of Jiang Xia.

"This is the threatening letter we received this morning. I don't know when it was thrown into the crack of the office, and the surveillance didn't find anyone..." She shook her head helplessly, "I have to trouble you."

Jiang Xia nodded, picked up the envelope and checked it briefly, then opened it to check.

There is only a piece of thick letter paper in it. The paper is of good quality. You can even feel the bumpy texture on it when you touch it with your fingers.

The paper is folded in half. After unfolding, there is no written text on it, but it is collaged like a traditional kidnapping letter - the sender will cut the single text needed from various places and spell it into a letter like this:

[The flower of death, will bloom at tonight's party]

The inscription in the lower right corner is not a text, but a rose, bright red, as if blood will ooze out at any time.

"Ozaki just loves making fuss."

A few meters away, Rika Okano was sitting in front of the vanity mirror, holding a small brush to touch up her makeup.

Hearing several people discussing the threat letter, she leaned closer to the mirror and glanced at her perfect makeup before turning her head and smiling cheerfully:

"If you want me to say, this must be someone who is jealous of my achievements and deliberately left a prank. If I am afraid and affect my performance, that person will be very proud. If I am as cautious as Ozaki and stop the performance directly, then he will It's a profit - oh, he thinks so beautifully, but unfortunately, I won't do this kind of loss-making business, I don't have time to waste on them!"

"Is this the avant-garde flower arranging artist?" Conan whispered to Jiang Xia and Suzuki Sonoko, "I don't know if flowers are avant-garde. Compared with traditional artists, they have a very avant-garde temperament..."

"Flowers are also very avant-garde." Suzuki Sonoko also whispered to him across Jiang Xia:

"I haven't seen the real scene, but I heard that her performance is like a powerful magician - the flowers that were closed in the last second, as if you can hear her orders, will be completed in an instant when the work is completed. It suddenly blooms and is very beautiful."

Rika Okano has sharp ears.

She looked at the few people who were whispering together, frowned for a moment, and suddenly looked at Conan with precision, and said suspiciously, "Little devil, what were you secretly talking about me just now?"

Conan: "?!"

The corners of his eyes jumped and he waved his hand, trying to fool him.

However, before he could think about his words, the door of the lounge was suddenly knocked from outside.

Okano Rika was startled and was about to respond impatiently.

But before she could speak, the knocker pressed the doorknob, pushed in, and entered the room.

It was a sturdy man in a suit, with a flower on his chest like all the guests, walking like the wind.

Ozaki Tsui looked up and saw him, his face changed slightly.

She stood up abruptly, with a hint of respect in her movements: "Mr. Baimu."

Shiraki Daisuke frowned when he saw several unfamiliar faces in the room, and was obviously very displeased with the behavior of bringing "idlers and others" into the lounge.

However, after a while, his eyes swept over Suzuki Sonoko's dress, and in the end he didn't say anything.

those are the guests who came to the banquet after all. And as long as he bears the title of "guest", as the banquet organizer, Daisuke Shiragi must be polite, which is the default rule of the industry.

He then looked back again, but Quan Dang didn't see the three extra guys in the room, and turned to Ozaki Sui.
