Chu Ming glanced at the scalpel in his hand: "His boyfriend is Kudo Shinichi."
"Hiss, I remember this name, it seems to be on the medication list? Judging from her expression, does she still not know that her boyfriend is dead? Aren't you good at disguise? Then why don't you disguise me to look like Kudo Shinichi? No, no, your skills are too poor. How about I do the whole makeup myself?"
"...Really? But her boyfriend isn't as good-looking as you. He's a bit ugly." Chu Ming hit his sore spot accurately.
"Forget it, I'd better see if there is another girl who is suitable for me."
“……”Is it so easy to give up?
"The car show is just behind the stairs. I just heard the manager and the waiter say that Teraizumi Daigo hasn't come back yet. You go to the room and rest first. I'll go check out the surroundings." Chu Ming sent Lafitte to the door of the room and stuffed him in.
"Okay, I'll take a nap then." Lafitte yawned and walked to the bed. "Remember to close the door for me."
"Sleeping again? Have you been bitten by the sleepy bug? I slept until about eleven in the morning and slept all the way on the way here. You want to sleep again now? Are you a pig?"
Chu Ming closed the door and spoke silently to Lafitte inside.
Chapter 234 Let’s learn to squeal like a pig
Chu Ming wandered around outside for a while and found that this restaurant was located alone at the top of the winding mountain road. There was no village in front and no shop behind. The buses were all at the foot of the mountain far away.
There are rugged mountains behind us and winding mountain roads in front of us. If anything happens and the road is blown up, it will be difficult for police helicopters to fly here because of the mountains and forests.
But there is no need for such a big fuss just to kill Daigo Teraizumi, and Conan is also here, so maybe Daigo Teraizumi will be killed immediately by the plot.
On the way back, Chu Ming happened to see Conan outside looking around furtively. Conan walked up and picked him up. Conan was so scared that his eyes widened. He turned around suddenly and was relieved when he found that it was Chu Ming.
"Brother Chu Ming, you scared me to death..."
"What are you doing?" Chu Ming looked around and there was no one around.
"President Teraizumi was telling my uncle about the threatening letter he received a few days ago. I just heard someone making a phone call next door saying that the luxury car exhibition will start at 3pm tomorrow. Tonight is the only chance, so I came out to see if there are any clues."
"Threatening letter?"
Chu Ming was a little surprised. It seemed that he didn't have to do the task himself this time. Alas, it was another day of getting task rewards for free.
When it was time for dinner in the evening, Chu Ming was just about to knock on Lafitte's door to ask him to get up and clean up, but before he could knock, the door was suddenly opened and Lafitte stood at the door in high spirits.
"Is it time for dinner? I can smell something delicious."
Chu Ming closed the door for him expressionlessly: "No, no, you smelled it wrong."
Lafitte pulled the door open with all his strength, and used the reflection on the doorplate to tidy up his hair. After making sure that his appearance was fine, he followed Chu Ming downstairs.
"Wouldn't it be inconvenient to have such long hair?" Chu Ming looked at Lafitte's waist-length white hair and reached out to touch it. It was quite smooth, and felt as good as Gin's hair. These two people might make a lot of money endorsing shampoo.
Lafitte shook his long hair and said, "No, why would it be inconvenient? I would definitely tie my hair up when I had surgery."
"I'm not talking about when you have surgery." Chu Ming made a pulling motion, "I mean when you're fighting, your hair is too long and it's easy for someone to grab it and swing it around like a ball."
???
Imagining that scene, Lafitte only felt a phantom pain on his scalp. He slapped away Chu Ming's hand that was touching his hair, and intentionally or unintentionally showed him the silver light that flashed from his sleeves.
"Tsk." Ignoring Lafitte's childish behavior, Chu Ming sat down at the dining table first. Because he was with Lafitte, he didn't feel comfortable eating at Conan and the others' table.
When two people were eating, they were secretly fighting with chopsticks to grab food, afraid that the other person would eat one more bite than themselves.
Even though there was more than enough food, the two childish kids still thought the ones they snatched away were delicious.
As the two were discussing with each other, a waiter ran to Maori Kogoro's table and said, "President, something bad has happened. There is someone causing trouble in the exhibition center."
"Making trouble? Having fun?" Chu Ming and Lafitte looked at each other, hurriedly stuffed a piece of bread into their mouths, and walked towards the exhibition center.
Why eat rice when you have melons to eat!
"Don't stop me, let me go, let me go!" A short and fat man kept struggling in the lobby manager's hands, trying to raise the crowbar in his hand to smash the car.
"Mr. Dazhu, calm down. Don't you think of this car as your precious treasure? Why do you want to smash it?"
"I……"
……
……
Chu Ming and Lafitte leaned against the door and listened carefully to what was happening.
This Teraizumi Daigo is not a good person. He set traps for the owners of these luxury cars, asking them to use their cars as collateral to lend him money. He tricked all these sports cars into his hands and put them in this exhibition hall. Now the owners are causing trouble...
That's great. Was this also his idea when he stuffed the postcard into Gin's pocket?
He wanted to bankrupt Gin, then make Gin use the car as collateral to lend him money, and then do something to make Gin unable to pay back the money, and the car would naturally become his?
As expected, the ignorant are fearless.
but……
Chu Ming looked at Lafitte, whose eyes were shining as if he had learned something, and silently made the sign of the cross for Gin. May God bless your car, Amen.
Lafitte saw Chu Ming staring at him, covered his mouth and yawned, then turned and walked upstairs: "Boring story, I'm going to bed, you can play by yourself."
???
Chu Ming followed him, his face full of disbelief: "You're still sleeping???"
Lafitte smiled wryly: "Yes, after all, I am an old man, it is normal for me to be sleepy."
"That's right. Pigs like you like to eat and sleep, then sleep and eat."
"whoosh"
Chu Ming tilted his head to the right, and a scalpel whizzed past the side of his face, carrying a few strands of hair and nailing them to the armrest.
Lafitte glanced at him, then slowly turned around, pulled out the scalpel and put it back in his pocket: "Humph."
"Are you angry? Don't be angry. How about I show you a talent?"
"Don't treat me like that driver. What's the show? Smiling but hiding a pig? I can do that, too. Hahahahaha Chu Ming, hahahaha."
??? Stealing my talent? You have no originality!
"No, it's a new talent. You're the first one to see it." Chu Ming blinked and acted cute at him.
Just as he stood at the door of the room, Lafitte opened the door, turned around and stood with his arms folded across his chest, looking disdainful: "Okay, I'll give you a chance, you show it."
"I'll show you a pig squeal!" Chu Ming said seriously.
Lafitte became interested: "Why don't you try to scream?"
Chu Ming: "Why don't you try to scream?"
"? Why are you trying to imitate me? Didn't you say to imitate a pig..." Lafitte reacted halfway through his words, grinning and preparing to take out the scalpel.
Chu Ming was prepared. He pushed him into the room with force, closed the door for him, and let out a loud and arrogant laugh through the door.
——Then he hid in his room.
"Buzz", "Buzz", "Buzz"...
The messages in the mobile mailbox kept ringing. It was obvious that Lafitte was sending spam. Chu Ming didn't even bother to read them. He directly cleared all the messages from Lafitte and almost deleted the messages that Gin sent him.
"It seems that Shuichi Akai has appeared. After completing the mission, he will return to Tokyo immediately. - Gin"
Chu Ming curled his lips. He had just come out this afternoon, but it was only evening and he was already rushing her.
Judy has already appeared. In the afternoon, Conan also said that Professor Agasa had invited several children to go skiing at the ski resort on the weekend. If his memory is correct, that should be the first appearance of Shuichi Akai.
Tsk, what’s Bourbon doing? Such a big person came into the country, how come he hasn’t collected any intelligence yet?
It stands to reason that when it comes to immigration inspections, the police should be able to conduct them more easily than organizations, right?
Bah, they actually need an organization to help them monitor the FBI entry, bah bah bah.
Chapter 235 Master Duan Shui
Chu Ming woke up at around ten o'clock and pulled open the curtains. It was still foggy outside the window.
The downstairs was in chaos at this time. The exhibition was about to start in the afternoon, but President Teraizumi drove out in his Dino last night and has not returned yet.
The Dino had to be placed in the center of the exhibition hall before the opening. Without this car with the biggest gimmick, the exhibition would basically lose half its luster. In addition, the afternoon exhibition still required President Teraizumi to preside over the overall situation. He hadn't come back yet, causing the manager to be anxiously running around in the hall.
At around nine o'clock, Kogoro Mouri called the president, but the call was hung up after he heard the president shout in a painful voice, "It's so dark here."
Conan was sitting on the sofa in the hall in a daze. He looked up and saw Chu Ming and Lafitte coming downstairs together. He teased him without thinking: "Brother Chu Ming, don't you usually get up at around five o'clock to exercise? Why did you come downstairs at around ten o'clock today?"
"Because it's foggy today, it's inconvenient to go out for a run, so I exercised in my room until ten o'clock, and then I called Watanabe to get up and go downstairs to eat together."
"..." Conan's mouth twitched, "Do you think I believe it?"
"I do not watch."
Do you think you are humorous?
"Ah--" Xiaolan's frightened scream suddenly sounded. Lafitte's ears moved slightly, determined the direction, and ran towards that direction first, leaving Conan behind.
When Conan and Chu Ming ran over, Xiaolan had already been helped up by Lafitte. Conan hurried over to occupy the most advantageous position, stood on tiptoe and held Xiaolan's hand: "Sister Xiaolan, how are you, are you okay?"
"No, it's nothing. I was taking a walk when I heard a sound behind me. I got scared. That's why... Mr. Watanabe, thank you."
Lafitte's face inexplicably flushed: "No, you're welcome..."
Chu Ming looked at the magnetic field that was slowly flowing towards him along with the mist, and then looked at the man in security uniform standing next to Xiaolan: "Who is this gentleman?"
"I'm Noda, the security guard of this hotel. I saw this lady walking towards the cliff just now, so I warned her. I didn't expect to scare her. I'm really sorry."
A few people stood in the fog and chatted. Chu Ming looked at his clothes which were gradually getting wet by the fog and was ready to suggest that everyone go back and talk again, as it was really a bit cold outside.
Suddenly Conan's ears moved and he looked towards the exit: "There is a sound, is President Teraizumi back?"
Chu Ming shook his head and pointed to a red sports car looming in the mist that was slightly dispersed by the wind in front of him: "Isn't that the president's car in front?"
Everyone looked in the direction of Chu Ming's finger, and saw a sports car parked crookedly in the parking lot.
It's just that it was shrouded in thick fog and was not discovered at all.
“President!” Manager Heiyan rushed to the car. “When did you come back? If you don’t park the Dino to the—Ah!! President, what’s wrong with you? Call an ambulance!”
While speaking, Zenkichi Kuroiwa ran towards the car. As soon as he reached the car, he saw Daigo Teraizumi slumped soundlessly on the backrest, and he quickly knocked on the window and shouted.
Kogoro Mouri hurriedly ran forward, stopped Zenkichi Kuroiwa's action, opened the car door, and was choked by the smoke blowing in his face. He couldn't help coughing.
"The car has been running, and I think carbon monoxide may have flowed back into the car, causing carbon monoxide poisoning... This must be an accident." Kogoro Mouri pinched his chin, his face serious, and he didn't look like he was joking at all.
