After observing the situation, Jiang Xia tapped her fingers on her knees.
Xiaobai and the others received the order, let go of the new ghost that was surrounded by people, and floated back again.
The new ghost secretly breathed a sigh of relief and slowly moved a little further away.
…
Jiang Xia started to listen to Chairman Nagato's entrustment again.
"Unfortunately, I don't have a photo of her. We met in elementary school. At that time, cameras were not as common as they are now." Chairman Nagato smiled:
"It's strange to say that I don't even know what she looks like now, but I suddenly miss her very much - she was such a lovely girl. Haha, if my deceased wife hears these words, she will
Maybe he’s going to come over and hit me.”
Chairman Nagato coughed a few times and did not make things difficult for the detective: "However, although there are no photos, I found some information - Hinata."
He called out to the female secretary next to him.
Hinata Yuki was obviously prepared.
She flipped through the information in her hand and whispered softly: "The lady's name is Akagi Kotomi. She is from Kanagawa Prefecture. She didn't get married until she was 29 years old. She and her husband only had one child. When the child was five years old, their family of three suddenly all
No news."
Conan, Mao Lilan: "..." There's not even a photo, but I know how old someone is when they get married... Could this kind-faced old man be some new breed of stalker?
Jiang Xia looked very professional, his expression did not change, and he nodded: "Okay, I'll remember it."
…
At this time, the door was suddenly pushed open, and two people walked in one after the other.
——These are the two daughters of Chairman Nagato.
The youngest daughter, Nagato Yasue, has smooth black hair. She looked into the room with gentle eyes, swept across everyone, and quickly smiled: "Dad, did you invite guests?"
Without waiting for Chairman Nagato to answer.
Next to her, Nagato Nobuko looked at the female secretary Hinata Yuki with an unkind look, and said in a strange tone: "Not only are there guests, but there is also a vixen sneaking in."
"Nobuko." Chairman Nagato stopped helplessly, "I lie here every day unable to move. If I don't ask Hinata to come over, how can I convey various news to the company? Do I count on you?"
"Huh? Old man, what do you mean! Am I worse than this vixen?!" Nagato Nobuko was furious and wanted to rush over and slap Hinata Yuki hard.
However, before taking action, she glanced out of the corner of her eye and suddenly noticed a handsome young man in the room. She didn't know where the old man found him.
"..."
Nagato Nobuko and Jiang Xia looked at each other for a moment, snorted coldly, and retracted their hands as if nothing had happened.
She glanced at the sister next to her and walked straight to the door: "Be careful, Kang Jiang - if you get too close to this vixen, be careful of her taking away your precious husband."
"Sister, Hinata is not this kind of person..." Nagato Yasue shook his head and followed her, and the two sisters quickly left the bedroom.
…
Chairman Nagato looked at the bedroom door and shook his head: "I'm sorry, Hinata. Nobuko is just a little anxious because she is quite old and no one has come to propose marriage..."
Jiang Xia: "..." Is there a possibility that one of the reasons for her anxiety is that she has a father who speaks too straightforwardly...
Hinata Yuki didn't take the insult just now to heart.
She lowered her head and looked at her watch, and her words were still so soft: "It's time for me to go back to the company."
"Okay." Chairman Nagato sighed and suddenly remembered something, "By the way, I plan to announce your engagement to Hidetomi to everyone tonight - well, you still have a chance to regret it. If it's because of you
His disfigurement, and sympathy for him..."
"It's not sympathy." Hinata Sachi turned around with a smile. The smile was genuine, but the meaning of the smile was extremely complicated. "My parents passed away because of the fire. After that, thanks to Hideomi who always took care of and comforted me. He was also killed in the fire just to save me.
Burnt...our destiny has long been firmly cast together by the fire, and we will never be separated."
"...never."
She walked out of the door very softly and disappeared at the door.
Jiang Xia withdrew his gaze in disappointment. He could no longer see his ghost for the time being - the new ghost left with Hinata Yuki.
Chairman Nagato seemed to be very lonely, and kept asking them to talk about his "first love." After talking for a while, the door clicked, and someone else came.
This time, it was a frail man wearing a knitted hat and his face covered with bandages, with only a pair of eyes exposed. The man pushed the bedroom door open a crack and looked in coolly.
"Who?!" Mao Lilan was startled by the ghostly appearance, swooped behind Jiang Xia, and grabbed Jiang Xia's shoulders tremblingly.
Jiang Xia seemed to hear his own bones making a muffled "crunching" sound. The corners of his eyes twitched and he almost reached out to touch the stick, but he forced himself to hold it back.
Conan also noticed the movement. He glanced at Jiang Xia with envy and fear: From the looks of it, Jiang Xia's body is really strong...
"Haha, don't be afraid." Chairman Nagato waved towards the door, "This is the dog - Nagato Hideomi."
"...Hideomi?" Mao Lilan was startled, remembering the conversation between Chairman Nagato and Hinata Yuki just now.
After all, she is a fairly smart person, and she quickly figured out the cause and effect: It sounds like Hinata Sachi encountered a fire when she was a child. Nagato Hideomi rescued her from the fire, but he was unfortunately burned. After that, he has been
Taking care of Hinata Yuki, the only survivor, the two slowly came together.
Mao Lilan: "..." In this case, with his face covered in bandages and his head wearing a hat, it makes sense - many people don't like to have their scars exposed to others.
She relaxed her hold on Jiang Xia's hand and looked at Nagato Hidetomi: "Sorry, um, I just saw a figure at the door and was startled."... She tried hard to pretend that she was not frightened by that scary dress.
Yeah, that would be too hurtful.
Nagato Hideomi was taciturn and shook his head, not minding this kind of thing.
He was about to leave when a man with shiny hair walked out from behind him.
The man put his hand familiarly on Nagato Hidetomi's shoulder, looked into the room, and said frivolously: "Are there guests?"
As if he had been bitten by a poisonous snake, Nagato Hideomi suddenly shook off his hand and turned around to leave.
Shimura Guangming, who was thrown away by him, was startled: "...Why are you so angry? You are in a bad mood today?"
He quickly shook his head and stopped thinking about it. He took a gift box and walked to Chairman Nagato's bedside: "Dad, happy birthday, little things are disrespectful."
"Thank you." Chairman Nagato smiled and reached out to take it.
However, Mitsuura Shimura held the box and did not let go.
He suddenly came closer and whispered: "In return for the gift, can you abdicate early and give me the throne of chairman?"
Elderly chairman: "..."
He only has one son and two daughters. None of the three can achieve anything, and none of them can support the Nagato Consortium. So a while ago, Mitsuo Shimura got married, married Yasue Nagato, and became the son-in-law of the Nagato family. He changed his name to "Nagato".
If you have a bright door, you will be able to inherit the family business in the future.
Shimura Mitsuyoshi has known Nagato Hideyoshi since childhood, and he seemed to be a good boy at first. However, recently, Chairman Nagato discovered that he seemed to have made a mistake.
He sighed and was about to say something. But Mitsuura Shimura had already let go of the gift box, straightened up, and left with a big smile: "Haha, it's just a joke, don't take it seriously."
Shimura Minami had a busy schedule during the day. He came and went for a briefing and left quickly.
And deep in the corridor, in the shadows that he couldn't see.
A pair of eyes hidden behind the bandages stared at his back. The eyes of "Nagato Hideomi" were full of murderous intent.
Nagato Hidetomi and Shimura Mitsuomi were indeed close friends, but "Nagato Hidetomi" was not.
——The current Nagato Hideomi is pretended by Hinata Yuki.
Two days ago, she finally proposed to Hidetomi Nagato and was about to marry the benefactor who had rescued her from the fire and been with her when she grew up.
One day ago, when she was delivering breakfast to Nagato Hideomi, she discovered the corpse of Nagato Hideomi who committed suicide by taking poison.
Next to the body, there was a suicide note, which contained a cruel fact - in fact, the fire that burned Hinata Yuki's parents to death twenty years ago was caused by Mitsuura Shimura and Hidetomi Nagato.
The two happened to be in high school at the time. At first they were just burning things for fun, but the fire suddenly got out of control. Later, Mitsuura Shimura fled in panic, while Nagato Hidetomi rushed into the fire and rescued a little girl.
In the days after that, Nagato Hidetomi has been living with guilt, and he has been with Hinata Yuki who has become an orphan. Two days ago, after the two verbally agreed on the engagement, Nagato Hidetomi suddenly felt that he was hiding the truth.
His behavior was so despicable that he couldn't help but commit suicide.
Hinata Yuki looked at the suicide note with cold hands and feet, feeling like the sky was falling. The horror of finding the real murderer, the sadness of the sudden death of his lover, the anger of being deceived for twenty years...all kinds of intense emotions were mixed together,
Eventually it settled into full murderous intent.
She decided to use this incident to formulate a complete method to kill Shimura Mitsuo - Hidetomi was already gone, Shimura Mitsuo, a hypocritical accomplice, should also go down to accompany him!
