Chapter 594: Death also wants an appearance fee

"What about this big pot?"

The approachable Miss Yuanzi now set her eyes on a large pot placed alone in the middle of the room.

"This pot has been bought by Mr. Ze Tian Zongwu, an art collector." Kenzo Ukishima came over and explained, holding the cat in his arms, which was eager to jump towards Hanyu Kusunoki.

"Zetian is..." Yuanzi frowned and quickly searched in his mind. Suddenly, he seemed to think of something and his eyes lit up. "Oh, I remember."

"Sonoko, do you know her?" Hanyu Kusunoki asked casually.

Sonoko quickly leaned close to Hanyu Kusunoki's ear and whispered, "He is a very rich man, but not as rich as our family."

Hanyu Kusunoki looked helpless: "..."

What I mean is, who can compare to your family in terms of wealth?

Currently, no company in Japan is as rich as the Suzuki Group headed by Suzuki Ayako, and the Suzuki Group's development tentacles are now actively spreading from the business world to the political world.

The reason for all this was that one afternoon, in a villa, a little girl had an idea while having afternoon tea with her sister and master.

Unknown Little Lolita: Hey, I have a good idea!

Unknown Young Master: I think it’s okay.

Unknown Little Maid: I agree!

...

"I heard that he has been buying up art works everywhere recently. He is very stingy when it comes to money, so no one likes him very much." Sonoko was still talking to Hanyu Kusunosa in a low voice.

Kenzo Ukishima, who was standing by, was holding the kitten and freeing one hand to open the window of the room, preparing to ventilate the room.

As the window opened, a gust of wind suddenly blew in.

The wind was so strong that the curtains were blown high up in an instant, and as the curtains moved greatly, a ping-pong ball rolled down from the windowsill.

Hearing the crisp sound of the ping-pong ball falling to the ground, the cat lying in Kenzo Fushima's arms seemed to have discovered a new toy. It suddenly jumped out, jumped to the ground, and happily chased after the ping-pong ball.

"Well?"

The garden was attracted.

Then the kitten jumped nimbly and hit the ping-pong ball to Hanyu Kusunoki's feet, but accidentally hit the shelf with large pots in the middle of the room.

"Be careful."

Hanyu Kusunoki narrowed his eyes, reached out to hold on to the shaky shelf, and successfully prevented the "fate" of the large pot that had been ordered from being broken.

The little cat girl seemed to realize that she was in trouble, so she stepped on a can against the wall and ran out through the vent above.

"Ahhhhh!"

Yuanzi was frightened when he saw the jar that was shaking under the kitten's step, and he quickly ran over to catch the jar.

The movement in the room also attracted attention from outside.

A man and two women pushed open the door and hurried in and asked, "What happened?"

"Phew, almost!"

The startled Miss Sonoko put the jar away and threw herself into Hanyu Nan's arms, begging for comfort pitifully, "Nan, you scared me to death."

Ukishima Kenzo also breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Are you not hurt?"

"Well, we're fine." Hanyu Kusunoki gently rubbed Sonoko's little head, and his eyes paused briefly on the three people who came in.

Among the one man and two women who came in, after understanding the situation, the woman with a high ponytail looked at the big pot on the table and said, "Anyway, at least the pot is fine."

The short-haired girl wearing glasses next to him echoed: "After all, this pot has been ordered. If it gets broken..."

"Do not."

Hanyu Kusunoki interrupted her and calmly walked to the shelf amid the puzzled gazes of everyone. He reached out and grasped the big pot. With a slight force, the pot that seemed intact was instantly split into two halves.

"This pot has been broken for a long time."

"You...what did you say? What do you mean? How can you say it's been a long time ago..." The young man among the one man and two women, Adachiko, a disciple of Ukishima Kenzo, subconsciously wanted to refute fiercely after hearing what Hanyu Kusunoki said.

But when he saw the calm eyes of the young man in front of him, he suddenly felt panicked and stopped talking halfway through.

Hanyu Kusunoki didn't pay attention to what the other person said. He just pointed to the large pot on the shelf that had been split into two halves and said, "There is tape inside the pot, which should be used to fix the pot."

Everyone looked over subconsciously, "It really is..."

"Also, someone put a piece of ceramic shards under the table, and the table was not level, which caused the cat to fall over with just a slight bump into the pot." Hanyu Kusunoki leaned over and took out a piece of ceramic shards from under the corner of the table.

As he finished speaking, everyone present was stunned and there was complete silence for a moment.

Sonoko looked at her boyfriend with admiration, her eyes full of admiration and pride, as if Hanyu Kusunoki was the one and only hero in her heart.

Kenzo Ukishima and his three apprentices widened their eyes in surprise, staring straight at the handsome young man in front of them.

So many clues were discovered in such a short time.

Whose detective is this?

But before they could continue to be shocked, Hanyu Kusunoki took a few steps forward slowly, bent down to pick up the ping-pong ball on the ground, and gently played with it in his hands, "Teacher Fushima, do you know where this ping-pong ball came from?"

"This ball is the cat's favorite toy." Fushima Kenzo replied with a puzzled look on his face, "But I usually put it in the yard."

"Teacher Fushima opened the window for ventilation, the wind blew the curtains, the curtains moved the ping-pong ball, the ping-pong ball attracted the cat, and the cat bumped into the shelf. It was all connected together, and it was really a coincidence."

Hanyu Kusunoki held the ping-pong ball, looked at everyone with a faint smile on his face. That smile seemed to carry a mysterious magic.

Listening to her boyfriend's words, the clever Sonoko also thought of something and said thoughtfully: "But can the ball really roll to the table by chance?"

"Teacher, do you open the window every time you enter this room?" asked Hanyu Kusunoki.

Ukishima Kenzo replied: "Yes, for ventilation."

"Ah! I understand."

The woman with a high ponytail, Tachibana Miyuki, a disciple of Ukishima Kenzo, said loudly with an expression of sudden enlightenment: "When the window is opened, wind will blow in. When wind blows in, the ping-pong balls will fall down..."

"After the cat saw the ball, it immediately chased after it. The rack was already unstable, so it fell down immediately after the cat touched it." Natsume Tomoko, a short-haired woman with glasses and a disciple of Kenzo Ukishima, added excitedly.

As Hanyu Nan listened to the two people's speeches, the corners of his mouth twitched. He had an inexplicable sense of déjà vu.

You two are here to replace Kogoro Mouri, right?

At this time, Hanyu Kusunoki has already remembered that this is the plot. Since no one died in the original plot, there is no need for the God of Death, Kogoro Mori, to appear.

After all, the Grim Reaper also needs an appearance fee.

Unless a few people die, Kogoro Mori cannot be invited to appear.
