A Trip to Hokkaido for Three?
Putting everything else aside, although Xiao Zhongda went to prison, it has to be said that his subordinates were quite capable.
However, when Xiao Zhongda went in, most of his most capable employees also went in to operate the sewing machines.
Fortunately, there were still some capable people left who escaped unscathed because they weren't deeply involved.
Now that several months have passed, it shouldn't be a problem to find a few capable people among those employees who haven't yet found suitable jobs.
The same applies to the other companies.
I compiled a list of employees who were originally in important positions, as well as companies that lost their presidents and were on the verge of bankruptcy. I also did a simple investigation into their situations and included them in this list.
When Jiang Hang revealed the origins of these people, the Miyano sisters immediately began to look at Jiang Hang strangely.
Well, I knew before that Jiang Hang liked to target companies that had run into trouble, but after acquiring Eito Studios, Jiang Hang restrained himself for several months and didn't acquire any other companies.
Now that he has acquired a TV station, he has found that his management team is not enough. So, is Jiang Hang now setting his sights on those companies again?
And it's not just their own cases, they're not even letting Conan's cases go?
But upon closer reflection, it doesn't seem like there's anything wrong with it.
At least this time they only want the employees; they don't plan to take over those companies and their businesses.
Miyano Akemi glanced at the list.
This list wasn't as detailed as the employee lists Jiang Hang had given him in the previous months.
A few months ago, when Jiang Hang handed the art museum over to her for management, he categorized and arranged all the staff in the art museum, and even wrote down what each person's strengths were.
It's unclear how Jiang Hang discovered those people's talents that they themselves were unaware of, but Miyano Akemi did indeed save herself a lot of time by using those forms and also arranged suitable positions for those employees.
This form is much simpler now. Apart from personal information and some work experience, it doesn't include the types of skills the other party is good at.
However, Miyano Akemi didn't seem to care.
The list from the art museum was compiled by people Jiang Hang had personally met and talked with. Given Jiang Hang's discerning eye, it wasn't particularly outrageous that he found those things.
These lists were obviously compiled by Jiang Hang over the past two days, so it's impossible to verify the details of each one individually.
Of course, the actual reason is quite simple: Jiang Hang can only see the talent of his own employees, but not the talent of those outside the company.
He could see Conan's talent, and it was only by casually assigning Conan and his Detective Boys the role of assistants and frequently treating them to meals as rewards and compensation that he barely gained the system's recognition and was able to see Conan and those kids' talents.
The list he has compiled is based on two factors: an algorithm he developed using his hacking skills and his own intuition.
He has now received many rewards, some of which enhance his sixth sense.
Skills like Mind's Eye and Danger Sense, while combat skills, can also be used in everyday life.
For example, when he was making this list, sometimes he would suddenly feel that he didn't like the names of a few people, so he would just cross their names off the list. The main thing was to find someone he liked at first glance.
Miyano Akemi glanced at the list and said there shouldn't be any problems. She would contact them later to see how many people on the list she could recruit.
But as she listened, Miyano Shiho suddenly felt something was off.
She went to Jiang Hang to bring this up in order to reduce the burden on her sister.
The solution proposed by Jiang Hang was to recruit more management talent, and they even provided a list.
But wasn't it her sister who ultimately carried out this list?
This actually added a lot more workload to her sister's workload.
Miyano Shiho looked at Jiang Hang with some regret.
Miyano Akemi waved her hand and said, "I haven't reached the point where I have to hire people myself, so you don't need to worry about it."
"Although I don't feel any pressure with the work I have right now, if the people on this list are really capable, I don't think it would be a problem to try to poach them in advance."
"But Jiang Hang, your arrival is just in time. I also had some things I was thinking of explaining to you."
As Miyano Akemi said this, she took out several things that looked like invitations from a drawer next to her.
"Because your firm always rejects these invitations, those people found out about me and came here. Some of them are sincere, and some of the inviters are very influential. You might as well take a look around here."
Jiang Hang waved his hand, indicating that he had no interest in these business invitations. How much money could one invitation earn? It was nowhere near as lucrative as completing commissions.
Unless something useful comes up on this page, he has absolutely no interest in these invitations.
Basically, when Shizuka receives a similar invitation, she tells the person on the other end of the phone to try inviting Kogoro Mouri, the famous detective who is on par with her.
Anyway, Kogoro Mouri really does like attending those fancy parties.
Miyano Akemi then took out an invitation. "This invitation is from the Governor of Hokkaido, and it's just an invitation to attend the opening ceremony of a subway line in Hokkaido. Would you like to reconsider?"
Jiang Hang blinked and asked, "You know?"
Having lived in Japan for six months, he still understood what these words meant.
The title of governor sounds quite ordinary; one might think he's just an average member of parliament or a manager.
However, in Japan, the governor is essentially the highest-ranking official in a region, as his position is even higher than that of the mayor.
The Governor of Hokkaido is one of the highest-ranking officials in Japan.
He hadn't been to Hokkaido much in the six months since he transmigrated, so how did the other party come up with the idea of inviting him there?
Chapter 540: A Trip to Hokkaido for Three?
Jiang Hang has indeed not yet traveled to Hokkaido since he transmigrated here.
To be honest, aside from helping to take down that car smuggling gang from Hokkaido in Mount Akina a while ago, the only other connection he has with Hokkaido is the mysterious Hokkaido high school detective that Natsuki Kosimizu mentioned who killed her friend.
Is it because I'm already so famous, or is it that the other party is interested in the Pioneer Foundation behind me?
Jiang Hang muttered to himself as he carefully examined the invitation, recognizing the name of the Governor of Hokkaido.
The timeframe is five days from now, so the timeframe isn't too tight.
"But the temperature in Hokkaido in December should already be below zero, right?"
Jiang Hang muttered to himself, still wondering whether he should go to the colder north to attend some kind of ribbon-cutting ceremony for the opening of a road.
Miyano Akemi noticed the contemplation on Jiang Hang's Jiang Hang and immediately recommended some of the snow-capped mountains and hot springs currently open in Hokkaido.
Jiang Hang stroked his chin and pondered for a moment.
In his previous life, he was from the south and had never experienced skiing.
There's nothing wrong with experiencing it once in your life.
The invitation from the Governor of Hokkaido, skiing, the detective that Natsuki Kosimizu is looking for, and Hokkaido's local specialties and restaurants...
After catching up on all the cases in Tokyo, it seems like I can finally take a short trip to Hokkaido before the New Year.
Jiang Hang nodded to Miyano Akemi, instructing her to let her know he would arrive on time.
"Do you want to come and play with us for a few days?" Jiang Hang casually asked the two sisters.
The invitation was for five days later, and considering that I didn't want to go in a rush, I would definitely have to go a day or two in advance.
Miyano Akemi subconsciously waved her hand, indicating that there were still many things to be resolved at the company.
But Jiang Hang's next words cut off what she hadn't yet said.
"You two sisters haven't gone skiing or soaking in hot springs together before, have you? Why don't you take this opportunity to go out and experience it together?"
So Miyano Akemi glanced at Miyano Shiho beside her and immediately hesitated.
Miyano Shiho, standing to the side, nodded on behalf of her older sister to indicate that there was no problem. The sisters only had a few memories of each other, and several years of those memories were occupied by Shuichi Akai had deceived her sister's feelings.
Now that I've finally broken free from the organization, I naturally want to create more new memories.
As for the research on Apotoxin 4869, it wasn't in such a hurry to begin with. In fact, many experimental data points require several days or even longer to be determined. She could have completed some of the time-consuming data in those few days, as long as Professor Agasa could help keep an eye on it when he had some free time.
Hearing her younger sister say so, Miyano Akemi naturally had no choice but to nod in agreement.
"Then let me take care of the work for the next few days first."
Miyano Shiho had originally planned to take her older sister and Jiang Hang out for a meal and some shopping today.
However, now that the trip to Hokkaido is already scheduled for four days later, and her sister is busy taking care of her work for the next few days, Miyano Shiho can only patiently wait for the Hokkaido trip to begin in four days.
But knowing Jiang Hang's personality, he'll probably bring a whole bunch of people with him.
Miyano Shiho had already prepared for this.
Putting everything else aside, his two assistants will definitely be going to Hokkaido with him.
Just two days later, news from Jiang Hang made Miyano Shiho wonder if she had misheard.
"Are you saying that the three of us will be going to Hokkaido together this time?"
When she heard the news, she felt that her voice was a little too surprised.
"Ah, if you can get those two internet-addicted girls out of Animus, I can buy them both another plane ticket."
Jiang Hang's somewhat helpless voice came from the other end of the phone.
He was quite envious of Shizuka Sakaki and the others for being able to immerse themselves in the lives of those legendary female assassins. After all, as a true die-hard fan of assassins, he really wanted to experience the stories of those legendary assassins from a first-person perspective.
However, because his assassin bloodline has been upgraded to a high level, he is only one step away from the demigod body in Odyssey, which can fall from a height of hundreds of meters to the ground without suffering any damage.
This superior bloodline endowed Jiang Hang with powerful physical attributes and recovery abilities, but it also made him an "exceptionally sensitive" individual who was particularly susceptible to Animus stimulation.
Spending more than an hour inside this first-generation Animus can easily cause Bleeding Effect, creating phantoms from one's memories before one's eyes.
Of course, this Bleeding Effect is not entirely negative; the positive aspect is that it allows him to adapt more quickly to the abilities and memories possessed by these memory phantoms.
However, in order to keep his mind clear, and also because there is a more useful place like the Learning Space for learning skills, Jiang Hang usually only comes over to experience it for a while when he is not so busy.
For him, the Animus was indeed just something that allowed him to relive the games of his past life; it didn't serve much other purpose.
But for Shizuka Sakaki and her friends, this was undoubtedly a revolutionary holographic projection technology.
With a certain degree of freedom, when communicating with those figures from their memories, they can simply answer questions that don't fit the "main storyline" based on the impression those figures gave to the memory owner, thus fully satisfying their curiosity about those historical figures.
In short, the current situation is that both Shizuka Sakaki and Koharu Yoshino are addicted to it. One of them is constantly saying that Cleopatra was a bad woman, while the other is Mafia boss in London.
Skiing in Hokkaido?
One is climbing the pyramids, while the other is busy conquering all of London and turning it into his own territory, having absolutely no interest in skiing in Hokkaido.
Both girls wanted to finish all the plot points in one go, so Jiang Hang naturally let them be.
He had actually been thinking of finding some more people to go over there.
The film crew is busy with promotional activities for Ultraman's release after the New Year, while the art museum is receiving new exhibits from the Pioneer Foundation every day.
Imai Midori was busy with her homework before winter break, while Natsuki Kosimizu had already gone to Hokkaido to investigate, but she didn't find any useful information. So she just told Jiang Hang about the places she had investigated back then, so that Jiang Hang could keep an eye out for news about high school detectives in other places.
Conan, on the other hand, didn't call out at all.
After all, the other person has just been discharged from the hospital, so it's better for them to rest for a few more days. Going skiing would be a bit too outrageous.
In short, Jiang Hang asked a bunch of people around him, and even asked about the idol groups and bands that he occasionally went to watch their performances in private these days. Unfortunately, everyone seemed to be quite busy at the end of the year and couldn't find any time.
So in the end, the only people who went to Hokkaido with him were the Miyano sisters, whom he had decided to go with beforehand.
Upon receiving this news, Miyano Shiho on the other end of the phone even felt her heart racing.
"Anyway, I've already booked your tickets to Hakodate for tomorrow afternoon. I'll drive over to pick you up then," Jiang Hang said before hanging up the phone, completely unaware of the complex emotions that Miyano Shiho was experiencing on the other end.
However, when Jiang Hang drove to pick up Miyano Shiho the next afternoon, it was still clear that she had made careful preparations.
After getting on the bus, Miyano Shiho began to take out her pre-prepared travel plan.
For example, tomorrow we can take a trip around Hakodate, and the day after tomorrow, after attending the ribbon-cutting ceremony, we can take the tram from Hakodate, the starting station, all the way to Sapporo. After spending a day in Sapporo, we can go to Hokkaido's largest ski resort, which is only half an hour away from Sapporo.
After that, almost all the travel plans were arranged by Miyano Shiho.
However, Jiang Hang added, "I also need to go to Asahikawa. I know a family restaurant there that should have pretty good food."
Although Miyano Shiho was a little surprised that Jiang Hang, who had never been there, knew about the restaurant's taste, Asahikawa was also in the Sapporo metropolitan area, and it wouldn't take long to get there. So she took out her phone and started searching for attractions in Asahikawa.
Seeing her like this, Jiang Hang seemed to remember something and gave her a special reminder.
"Then you should take your sister to visit those tourist attractions more often. As for me, I should also take some time to go to the high schools in those cities to help Yue Shui investigate the high school detective who drove her friend to suicide."
Upon hearing this, Miyano Shiho's expression froze for a moment, but she quickly recovered.
This is how Jiang Hang should behave; it's perfectly normal.
She maintained her smile.
Jiang Hang has always been a helpful person. Since he promised to help Natsuki Kosimizu, he will definitely take action.
Besides, they can help with the investigation later. Since there are only three of them going to Hokkaido this time, they can definitely find enough time to spend alone together.
