Chapter 404: Hanyu Kusunoki in the Eyes of Outsiders
The group followed the butler and slowly walked into the castle. They saw a middle-aged man wearing a brown suit, with a neatly groomed beard, holding a cane and standing straight in the living room on the first floor.
"Haha, welcome all friends to come and attend my son's wedding dinner."
"Uncle Qianxiong, long time no see."
Hattori Heiji took the initiative to walk forward and say hello.
"It's Heiji, it's been a while." When Mikio Morizono saw Hattori Heiji, a friendly smile appeared on his face, and he asked casually, "How is your mother doing recently? Is everything going well?"
"Uh... I'm... okay..." Hattori Heiji was a little embarrassed by this sudden question and replied stutteringly.
Everything was fine, with a harmonious family and a fulfilling life, but now that he has made her so angry, I’m not sure whether my mother can still be in a good mood.
Mikio Morizono didn't seem to notice Hattori Heiji's embarrassment, but said happily: "That's great, when my wife was alive, she often talked to me about your mother."
Hearing this, He Ye, who was standing at the back of the crowd, shouted in surprise, "Ah, how could this happen!"
The only reason she came this time was to attend the wedding banquet of the son of one of Aunt Jinghua's classmates, and she didn't really know that the other's wife had passed away.
Hearing what Kazuha said, a trace of sadness flashed in Morizono Mikio's eyes. He then pointed to his leg and said in a slightly low voice: "My wife passed away four years ago. Unfortunately, she died in a tragic car accident, and my leg was also injured at that time."
He Ye looked apologetic and quickly said, "I'm sorry, Uncle Morizono, I didn't know this."
Mikio Morizono gently waved his hand and said comfortingly: "It's okay, little girl, it's all in the past."
As he said this, he turned his gaze to Kazuha, but his eyes inadvertently glanced to the side and noticed Hanyu Kusunoki who was leisurely playing with a kitten.
"You are..." Morizono Mikio's pupils suddenly shrank. After confirming again and again that he was not mistaken, he leaned on his crutches and rushed towards Hanyu Kusunoki at a brisk pace with an agility that was completely different from his previous state in the shocked eyes of everyone.
"Excuse me...are you...Master Hanyu?"
Hanyu Kusunoki let go of the kitten in his hand and asked calmly, "Do you know me?"
"Of course I know you! I never expected that you, Master Hanyu, would come to my humble home today! I am sorry for not welcoming you in person, I hope you will forgive me!"
Morizono Mikio's face was very serious. He spoke hurriedly as he walked quickly forward, bowed slightly, and spoke in a humble but eager tone.
Seeing this, Hanyu Nan nodded slightly and responded softly: "You don't have to be so polite, Mr. Morizono. I am just here with He Ye today to attend your son's wedding on behalf of Aunt Jinghua."
Hearing this, Morizono Mikio hurriedly bowed again, with a smile on his face, and responded repeatedly: "Understood, understood! Master Hanyu, Miss Heye, please take a seat. I will go and tell them to serve the dishes quickly."
After saying that, he turned around and strode towards the restaurant.
Everyone was confused by this sudden scene. Hattori Heiji and Conan looked at each other, totally confused as to what was going on.
The atmosphere was fine just now, but when he suddenly saw Hanyu Kusunoki, he acted as if he had seen some extremely distinguished guest.
"Dad, who is that man? Why are you so polite to him?" Morizono Yurijiang quietly approached her father, lowered her voice, and asked curiously.
As she spoke, she couldn't help but turn her head and look at Hanyu Kusunoki who was chatting and laughing with Kazuha, her eyes revealing surprise and disbelief that was difficult to conceal.
She couldn't understand why her father, who was always dignified and solemn, could have such a deliberately flattering side, and the object was the little boy she had just fallen in love with.
"You don't need to know this!" Morizono Mikio suppressed his voice in excitement, "You just need to know that the other party is a distinguished guest of our family."
Morizono Yurijiang was frightened by her father's attitude and did not dare to ask any more questions, but she became more and more curious about the other party's identity.
At this moment, Morizono Mikio's heart was in turmoil. He never expected that he would see this mysterious person in his home today.
During this period, as he had more and more props and his own strength became stronger, Hanyu Kusunoki became more casual in his actions, such as the Thunder and Fire Double Dragon Battle in Osaka last time and the police and gangster chase in Mika a few days ago.
Although the Suzuki Group tried to cover up this series of events afterwards, it only fooled ordinary people.
For those well-informed people at the top of society, Hanyu Kusunoki's true identity and powerful abilities are no longer a secret.
You know, the spiritual energy of this world has been cut off, but there are still some related records and traditions passed down.
And Hanyu Kusunoki is the only extraordinary person after the end of the Reiki era.
After countless attempts in various ways, and after no one knew how many people had died, some people finally calmed down and only dared to contact him through the Suzuki Group. They no longer dared to do anything outrageous.
Although the Morizono family is not as powerful as the Suzuki family, they are still well-known upper-class figures in Neon. Therefore, they have heard a little about Hanyu Kusunoki's mysterious true identity.
Thinking of this, Morizono Mikio's expression became more solemn. He worriedly reminded his daughter again, "Go tell your brother to be careful. If he dares to offend this distinguished guest, I will definitely break his legs."
Moriyuan Lily nodded quickly and agreed, "Okay, Dad, don't worry, I'll go find my brother and tell him what you mean."
At this time, the atmosphere in the restaurant was a little weird.
Hanyu Kusunoki and Kazuha were chatting as if no one was around, occasionally laughing softly.
Hattori Heiji and Conan were huddled to one side at this time, their heads almost touching each other, and they kept their voices very low, for fear that others would hear what they were discussing.
"See? The identity of this guy Hanyu Kusunoki is indeed not simple. Even Uncle Ganxiong is trying to please him!" Hattori Heiji said with a frown.
Conan pushed his glasses up thoughtfully and said, "Well, judging from your uncle's attitude, our previous speculation is indeed correct. There must be a lot of people who know the real identity behind Hanyu Kusunoki, but for some reason, they dare not say it out."
Hattori Heiji stroked his chin and lowered his voice, "Then we have to find a way to figure it out. Maybe we can catch that guy."
Conan nodded, his eyes casually sweeping over Hanyu Kusunoki and Kazuha, "But don't be too hasty, just observe first."
After so many profound lessons, the young and naive Conan also realized that if he wanted to deal with Hanyu Kusunoki, he must not blindly and impulsively fall into his trap. He must give full play to his skills as detectives, quietly find the key clues, and then make the final decision and give a fatal blow.
On the other side, Kazuha, who was sitting next to the main seat, secretly glanced at the two sneaky and secretive good friends, then leaned on the table and whispered to Hanyu Kusunoki who was checking the message on his mobile phone: "Hanyu, why do I feel that Hattori Heiji and Conan are thinking about something bad again?"
"It's okay. If they want to do something bad, just tell their mom and let her teach them a lesson." Hanyu Kusunoki said casually without raising his head, while replying to messages with his fingers.
[Well, thank you, Sister Ayako. You can bring those jewelry with you when you come tomorrow.]
