"That's right!"

The woman nodded firmly. "Oogami Shuku Zen owes our bank more than 200 million yen. This is not a small amount, but because he still has assets under his name, and Twilight Manor currently has a certain value, the audit will take 30 days to complete."

"I hope you can act quickly."

Fujino's face darkened. "I don't like to wait. If I wait until I lose patience, then I'm afraid no one will take over that villa. You should know what the consequences will be then..."

"We will definitely conduct the audit with the highest efficiency!"

The female manager nodded repeatedly, her face pale, afraid that Fujino wouldn't take on this mess.

"Snort..."

Fujino snorted coldly, naturally knowing what situation this woman was in.

Oogami Shuku Zen's procedures at Suzuki Bank were compliant, but someone still had to take the blame for these debts. The bad debts of the deceased could only be dealt with by the heirs or internally by the bank.

However, given the current situation, the Twilight Manor cannot be auctioned off, and even if it is sold, it will be insolvent.

In the end, she had to make up for it herself, but as a manager, she couldn't come up with 200 million yen all at once.

Fortunately, the strange young man named Ike Feichi was willing to take over the haunted house, which gave her a lifeline.

Forget about a quick audit, she'd be willing to sleep with anyone in this situation.

Entrusting the matter to that female manager made everything much easier. After all, she has connections, and the Twilight Manor might be his in less than thirty days.

Fujino certainly wouldn't want to clean up the mess Oogami Shuku Zen by Daisho, but this wasn't cleaning up a mess; it was about appropriating a treasure for himself.

After all, the Twilight Manor is full of gold. If it falls into the hands of others, it will be discovered sooner or later. It's better for him to pay a sum of money that is insignificant to him and take over the entire treasure house directly to avoid being discovered by others.

Although it cannot be completely drained now, in the near future, this will be a sure-fire investment with a return of a thousand or even ten thousand times.

"I wonder what kind of expression that old bastard Karasuma Renya would have if he knew that this mansion was all made of gold."

Fujino narrowed his eyes and a satisfied smile appeared on his face. Putting himself in their shoes, he saw this as retaliation against the Alcohol Company.

Pulling himself back to reality, Fujino took a deep breath and began to consider his next plan.

Kuroba Kaito has already been dragged into this mess by him...

Although I don't know if they will come, at least I have some idea of what will happen.

As for not coming...

Hmph, Teng will definitely go to Jiang Gutian to ambush him.

"Now that the basic plan has been finalized, it's time to think about how to make a profit from it..."

Fujino scratched his chin, starting to think about how to justifiably and reasonably squeeze money out of the Tokiwa Group.

He remembered that there was a contest at the banquet where someone could win a Ford sports car.

He was determined to get that thing.

But one sports car isn't enough to break even...

Suddenly, as if he had thought of something, he glanced sideways at the Rolex watch shop next to him, and a slight smirk appeared on his lips.

Amidst the expectant gazes of the staff, Fujino strode out of the watch shop.

"Well, we've really upgraded from ragtag weapons to powerful weapons."

Fujino glanced at his red and black Rolex and suddenly felt a sensation that only a rich dog could experience.

This Rolex is worth 10 million yen, which is roughly equivalent to 500,000 to 700,000 RMB.

Rolex are inherently expensive, and I heard the one he has is some kind of commemorative edition.

Who cares? It's valuable anyway.

Moreover, this group of people wouldn't dare to cheat someone who would casually spend over ten million to buy a watch.

Moreover, the shop assistant recognized his identity. If he dared to lie, he would probably be beaten up by a group of detective fans the next day.

Of course, this was all small change for him.

As a thrifty Hitomi, he naturally wouldn't waste his money on buying this kind of thing.

It was purely because I remembered that in a few days, when the Tokiwa Group held its opening ceremony, they would collect everyone's watches and then return them as gifts of gemstones of equal value.

I can only say that he is a big capitalist, he is so generous.

Fujino thought to himself, "Why can't he just ask for money instead of jewels?"

Rounding it off is like getting a Rolex!

Feeling great!

"But speaking of which, Ai should be getting out of school soon, right?"

Fujino thought for a moment, then put down the cuff of his Rolex, his face beaming with the satisfaction of a rich man's foolish son, and prepared to pick up his child from school.

[Ding! A new Detective Profession Mission has been detected. Please check your inbox!]

Before Fujino could even take a step, a system notification sounded in his ear.

At the same time, a screen of light appeared in front of Fujino:

Detective Profession Mission: The Assassination of Genta!

Mission Summary: This reckless kid has gotten himself into trouble with a robber.

Mission objective: Rescue the reckless brat.

Mission Rewards: Two million yen, three hundred Detective Reputation points

"It seems the system and I share the same view..."

Fujino glanced at the description on the screen before him and nodded. Then, he looked towards the elementary school not far away. "But robbers, they actually dare to show up... I haven't made many moves lately because I've been well-off. Have those bastards forgotten the fear of being dominated by bats?"

Teitan Elementary School.

Genta, the chubby boy, nimbly climbed down from the elementary school wall.

He cautiously glanced around, then quickly prepared to flee.

"Wait Genta!"

Just then, a girl's voice came from behind; it was Ayumi and Conan's group.

"..."

Upon hearing this, Genta froze on the spot.

"Genta, what kind of ninjutsu are you training for?"

Ayumi walked curiously past the trash can and came up to Genta.

"If you ask me, you're definitely on a diet, right?"

Mitsuhiko excitedly guessed, "No wonder you've stopped eating your nutritional meals... That's great!"

"No... that's right!"

Genta readily accepted the offer, admitting, "The last time I saw a really good movie..."

Isn't Kamen Rider your idol?

Conan retorted speechlessly, "Besides, if that were really the case, you wouldn't have been so scared at noon that you were hiding under the covers trembling!"

"Could it be that he's having some kind of hallucination?"

Ai Haibara gently bent down her petite body, dusted off the dust on her khaki shorts, and then looked at Genta: "For example, imagine being chased by a blood-covered samurai, and then start training with this imaginary enemy as your opponent."

"After all, they're just kids..."

Conan nodded, looking serious.

After all, he had fantasized about being trained by Sherlock Holmes when he was a child.

Heh heh, it's not shameful!

Seeing their expressions, Genta immediately became furious and said, "I'm not dreaming!"

Conan: "..."

Ai Haibara: "..."

He's getting anxious!

"I am really being hunted down!"

Genta lowered his head, clenched his fists, and a rare look of fear appeared on his face. "Someone wants my life. That guy is an assassin!"

"Assassin?"

Just then, a familiar sound came from behind.

The group turned around and saw a man in a black suit, with an exceptionally handsome face and a faint white light shimmering on his wrist, walking towards them.

That person was none other than Fujino.

Conan: "..."

Damn it! What's that blinding me?

Why does this guy seem to have become even more... like a diamond bachelor after just a few days?
