After Mao Lilan went down the entire building, she saw Conan crossing the road. Conan also saw her.
"Sister Xiaolan, the one who went upstairs just now was Ikezawa Yuko, right? Did you ask her what she was doing here?”
Hearing Conan's question that only cared about the investigation, Mao Lilan felt a little uncomfortable in her heart. She said,"Of course, I came here to find Brother Takayanagi for a loan. Even my idol has had a hard time.”
"Big Brother Takayanagi?" Conan was no longer concerned about Ikezawa Yuko's purpose for coming here. He was more concerned about the change in how Molilan addressed Takanagi Ichiro.
This afternoon at Detective Maori's office, Ichiro Takayanagi had spoken to Maori Lilan as Xiaolan. Now, Maori Lilan was actually addressing Ichiro Takayanagi as Big Brother Takayanagi. It was during the short period of time that Maori Lilan had stayed in Ichiro Takayanagi's room.
Conan's exclamation did not bother Molilan, but it reminded her of what Koryo Ichiro had said to her. Now that she had met Conan here, she said,"Conan, I don't know where you came from, but I don't think you'll hurt my father and me. But Brother Takanagi told me that if you deliberately lead the police's attention to him in the future, he'll tell the truth that he knows you.”
"What?" Molilan's words made Conan break out in cold sweat.
This was because the words that Ichiro Takayanagi had asked Molilan to relay to him were too shocking. It should be known that even he himself was still unable to accept the fact that his body had become smaller. He was still hoping that Dr. Ali would be able to invent an antidote to demobilize his body.
But now, Takayanagi Ichiro actually said that he knew the truth about him. How could Conan not panic? Could it be that Takayanagi Ichiro was also a member of the Black Clothes Organization?
However, although Ichiro Takayanagi was a little annoying to Conan, he did not exude a dark aura. Conan was more suspicious of the woman who walked out of Ichiro Takayanagi's room today.
However, now that Ichiro Takayanagi had asked Molilan to relay the message, Conan had to consider that it was best not to provoke Ichiro Takayanagi at this stage, unless there were clues that clearly pointed to Ichiro Takayanagi.
"What secrets can a child like me have? It must be Big Brother Takayanagi Ichiro who was wrong.”Conan immediately said in a childish tone.
"I hope so." After Molilan finished speaking, she walked in the direction of the detective agency, followed by Conan.
……
"Miss Ikezawa Yuuko, why are you looking for me at this time?”Takanagi Ichiro was about to prepare dinner, but at this moment, another woman came to his door. She introduced herself as Ikezawa Yuuko, a member of the same firm as Okino Yoko.
" The money that Yamagishi used to bribe the media was borrowed from you, Mr. Takanagi, right? I don't know what kind of collateral they gave, but I also want to borrow a loan from Mr. Takanagi for emergency purposes.”Ikezawa Yuuko immediately explained the purpose of her visit. She then took out a cigarette and asked,""Do you have a lighter here?"
"No, I haven't." Takayanagi Ichiro said with certainty," If you want a loan, it's best to have something as collateral. Miss Ikezawa Yuuko, what do you have?”
Ikezawa Yuuko put away the cigarette in disappointment and asked,""What did Okino Yoko mortgage?”
"If she can't get through this incident, Yamagishi will take her away from the law firm and work for me to pay off my debts.”This kind of mortgage was not a big deal to those in the industry, but Ichiro Takayanagi still reminded him,"Of course, I hope that Miss Ikezawa Yuuko will hear about this matter. It won't do you any good if you go around talking about it.”
After listening to Takayanagi Ichiro's reminder, Ikezawa Yuuko also nodded to show that she understood. Then, she said,"It seems that you are all very optimistic about Okino Yoko's future development. I am almost completely broke now. If I want to mortgage, I can only do it myself.”
Using himself as collateral in exchange for a loan? Takayanagi Ichiro frowned slightly.
Ikezawa Yuuko also saw Takayanagi Ichiro's little action. She stood up and said,""Although I don't have the same prospects as Okino Yoko, I'm clean. Unlike Okino Yoko, I haven't even had a boyfriend!”
Maori Kogoro had also mentioned today's incident. The deceased, Akiichi Toshino, was Okino Yoko's ex-boyfriend. The reason why they had separated was because of Yamagishi eiichi's obstruction. Now, Ikezawa Yuko said that she was cleaner than Okino Yoko.
Therefore, Takayanagi Ichiro also stood up. After entering the room for a while, he took out a set of pajamas and handed it to Ikezawa Yuuko."Go wash up." Then, he pointed in the direction of the bathroom.
Ikezawa Yuuko did not refuse. She took the clothes and went to the bathroom.
After washing up, she realized that Ichiro Takayanagi had already prepared dinner. When he saw Ikezawa Yuko come out, Ichiro Takayanagi said,""Let's eat first. You'll only have strength after you're full.”
"Alright." Ikezawa Yuuko also revealed her first beautiful smile since arriving here.
