Of course I'm going to find a way to curse him to death

"Hahaha!"

Ōki Iwamatsu smiled awkwardly and didn't continue trying to win him over.

Despite being ignored, he wasn't angry. After all, the Suzuki family's daughter was someone he couldn't afford to offend, and he had to maintain appearances.

However, he still felt a surge of anger, so he turned his gaze to Fujino, the shield in front of Sonoko.

He remembered that this little brat was supposed to be a detective...

If I can't handle Suzuki, I can handle you, right?

Fueled by alcohol, he slowly walked forward, exhaled a breath reeking of alcohol, poked Fujino's chest, and teased, "By the way, you must be that kind of detective, right?"

"My name is Fujino."

Fujino looked at Ōki Iwamatsu and frowned. "He is indeed a detective."

"Yes, yes, yes, it sounds like Fujino!"

Ōki Iwamatsu laughed and said, "It's that little kid detective again."

"..."

Fujino's expression darkened slightly, and a hint of coldness crept into his eyes as he looked at Daiki.

He didn't like this guy at all; he was just a drunkard who acted crazy when he was drunk.

Normally he would definitely not bother with it.

But today they've become relentless...

So, without giving the other person any face, he casually slapped away the hand that was poking him and said with a slightly stern expression, "Mr. Oki, I advise you to drink less."

When Daiki saw his hand being slapped away, he was surprised for a moment, then looked at Fujino with a gloomy expression. "What business is it of yours whether I drink or not?"

"Be careful, something bad might happen."

Fujino pondered, "I remember the previous mayor of Nishitama City was removed from office because of a car accident."

"What did you say?"

Ōki Iwamatsu's expression immediately froze.

"So it was Detective Fujino."

Seeing that the situation was getting a bit out of hand, Tokiwa Mio smiled and quickly stepped in to smooth things over, saying, "When I heard your name just now, I thought it was just a coincidence. I didn't expect it to really be you. I've heard that you and Mori- Senior have a special relationship, but I didn't expect it to be true."

"Well, I heard that Mouri-niisan was coming to visit, so I shamelessly came along."

Fujino nodded, considering that he had come with Mori Kogoro today and didn't want to cause him any trouble, so he simply continued the conversation.

"Snort!"

Seeing this, Ōki Iwamatsu knew he couldn't say anything more, so he just snorted and walked to the French windows to look at the scenery.

"This guy is really terrible..."

Sonoko crossed her arms, frowned upon hearing this, and whispered something in a low voice.

"..."

Fujino was speechless for a moment.

How dare you say that... It's obvious you were used as a shield, which is why you're angry and targeting me, okay?

Then, he looked at Ōki Iwamatsu with narrowed eyes.

Normally, I wouldn't have tolerated any of those councilors.

After all, he wasn't intimidated by the position of a congressman.

However, even if a conflict broke out, it wouldn't make any difference, since in his eyes, this guy was already a dead man.

There's no point in arguing with a dead person.

Thinking of this, Fujino squatted down and whispered to Conan, "Go take a stroll around his neighborhood tomorrow."

"???"

Conan looked completely bewildered, clearly not understanding what Fujino was talking about. "Why would I go near his house?"

"Of course, we should find a way to kill him."

Fujino acted as if it were perfectly natural.

"It might actually work."

Ai Haibara pondered for a moment, then nodded in agreement.

"Hey! Hey!"

Conan was speechless for a moment.

What do you mean by "walking around his house twice and then bringing bad luck to him"?

Isn't that just outrageous?

Do you really think he's the Grim Reaper?

Seeing that the situation had eased somewhat, Tokiwa Mio a sigh of relief, feeling a bit exhausted.

She couldn't afford to offend that city councilor, Oki, and she certainly couldn't afford to offend Suzuki.

Judging from that young lady's appearance, she seems to have some connection with Fujino.

This situation, though somewhat awkward, is arguably the best possible solution.

Then, she introduced the designer of the two buildings, Kazama Hidehiko.

Kazama Hidehiko is actually an old acquaintance.

He is the apprentice of that psychopath Moroya Teiji.

However, this apprentice was different from his teacher; he had no intention of blowing up the building.

After a brief introduction, everyone moved to the floor-to-ceiling windows of the banquet hall, Tokiwa Mio then introduced another building.

The group is currently in Building A, which is mainly used for offices and business development. The other building is Building B, which is a little shorter than this building. The top of the building has a swimming pool, the bottom has shops, and the top has a hotel.

"I'm telling you, Mio."

At that moment, Ōki Iwamatsu approached and asked, "Could I stay at that hotel for the weekend?"

"Ah?"

Tokiwa Mio was taken aback by his words, and hesitated for a moment. "But it's not open yet, if I check in now..."

"So that means it won't work?"

Ōki Iwamatsu was somewhat displeased upon hearing this.

"No, that's not it."

Tokiwa Mio bowed slightly and immediately agreed, "I will prepare a guest room on the top floor, the sixty-seventh floor, for you."

"Actually..."

Ōki Iwamatsu leaned closer, exhaled a breath of alcohol, and whispered, "If it's alright, I'd really like to have dinner with you. You know what I mean."

Tokiwa Mio was taken aback by what she heard, and the expression on her face became slightly unnatural.

The more perceptive Sonoko had a strange expression on her face.

She suddenly felt a little glad that she hadn't shaken hands with that perverted old man.

Otherwise it will become unclean!

Ran and the other children looked completely bewildered.

It's obvious they didn't understand what was being said.

Mori Kogoro, Conan, and Professor Agasa all frowned.

Clearly, they understood what was going on, and their expressions gradually stiffened.

Fujino glanced at the reactions of those around him, and his gaze toward Ōki Iwamatsu grew even colder.

Tokiwa Mio is over thirty, but she is very well-maintained and looks only in her twenties. Moreover, she is the president of the company, so she is still very attractive to men.

As for what "dinner" means, that goes without saying.

How come this guy hasn't been arrested yet, given that he said this in public? How powerful must his backing be?

"The pathetic Japan society."

Fujino couldn't help but sigh, growing increasingly disgusted with so-called capitalism.

As he was feeling sentimental, Fujino suddenly sensed a gloomy atmosphere. Following the feeling, he saw that the source of the atmosphere was none other than Tokiwa Mio's painting teacher, Kisaragi Hōzui.

At this moment, Kisaragi Hōzui stared intently at Tokiwa Mio and Ōki Iwamatsu, a hint of murderous intent seemingly appearing in her eyes.

Oblivious to the murderous intent emanating from him, Ōki Iwamatsu continued his incessant chatter, staring intently at the brooch on Tokiwa Mio's chest. "Miss Mio, this brooch of yours is truly beautiful. Was it a gift from your lover?"

"No..."

Tokiwa Mio raised her hand to block it, saying, "I bought this myself."

"Mio! I'm going back now!"

Kisaragi Hōzui couldn't stand it any longer and turned to leave.

"Etc!"

Seeing this, Tokiwa Mio broke free and chased after him, saying, "I'll see you off."

"No need to deliver it!"

Kisaragi Hōzui shouted and walked towards the elevator without looking back.
