Conan: Science Cartoonist Kudo Yuji

"Mr. Munster, the person the lady mentioned has not arrived yet."

Miss Carla, who was wearing a black suit, put a folder on the table, looked at the men and women in line, and covered her nose with her hands, not wanting to smell the smell of alcohol anymore.

This is a common scene at the Marriage Registration Office in the center of Las Vegas. Every night, men and women after partying come here smelling of alcohol and register their marriages in a hurry out of curiosity or excitement.

"Not here yet?! It's already ten o'clock in the evening!" Mr. Munster, wearing a mustache and a suit, hurried to the door.

"I don't know. All the registration materials have been delivered to me, but the person hasn't come yet." Miss Carla rolled her eyes at Munster, but she was lamenting in her heart why such a person would be her boss.

"How can this be done? Marriage is a major event in life, and this couple doesn't take it seriously." He looked at the door anxiously, looking forward to the Japanese couple.

Of course, this new couple has nothing to do with him, but it is different if he accepts money from the Suzuki Consortium.

If he couldn't complete the formalities for the two people he had made an appointment with today, he would have to spit out the money he had eaten. And he had already ordered a Mercedes-Benz. The body full of streamlined design elements made his head spin. He hurriedly Pulling Kara aside.

"That won't work. We'll get off work later."

If you miss today, you won’t be able to keep the money.

"They don't care, so what can we do. Mr. Munster, let's get everyone together and return the money."

The money given to people like Carla was only a few hundred. She wanted to persuade Munster to stop, but she saw her boss's face turned dark.

"How can this be done? Kara..." Munster looked around and found that the men who were registering the marriage had not noticed this yet, so he took out another thousand from his pocket and slapped it into Kara's hand.

"This person's status is not low. Money is nothing. If we don't handle the main things for others, we will be in misery." Munster looked at the money with distress, his teeth a bit sour.

"You don't want to stay at the marriage registration office in Las Vegas for the rest of your life. If you do this well for them, maybe you can make progress."

"Is he really such a tall person?" Kara raised her head doubtfully and found that Munster did not look like he was lying this time.

"The second largest Japanese company, Suzuki, is owned by them, and the votes they hold in Las Vegas are very important to the mayor."

The boss put his hands on his hips: "You know, Mr. Mayor has been giving speeches and campaigning everywhere during this time. If we can handle this well, do we still have to worry about work?"

"Mr. Munster, you may have misunderstood something. I am very satisfied with my work." Miss Kara rubbed the banknotes in her hands and stuffed them into her arms in front of her boss: "But I feel that my progress is nothing. "

The two looked at each other, and then Kara mentioned: "There is a discarded computer and equipment in the warehouse. Maybe we can use it."

"You mean, take the device to the newlyweds' hotel and we'll check them in directly?"

Munster looked at the crowded registration office and gritted his teeth and said: "I can't leave. I have to be in charge of the overall situation here."

What a pity that he couldn't perform in front of the new couple and could only give the opportunity to his subordinate.

"Then...I'll go alone?"

Kara licked her fingernails and quietly held the document bag in her arms: "It's just that the supervisor's ID card is required for verification when registering out. I..."

"Miss Carla, I appreciate your desire to share the worries of Mr. Mayor. How can this small card stop such an enthusiastic girl's kindness?" Mr. Munster took off the card from his chest: "No! Absolutely not!"

"You misunderstood again, Mr. Munster." Kara put the card away and prepared to go to the warehouse to get the equipment: "It's our good intention."

The hotel address was filled in on the document bag, so Kara drove there immediately. She walked into the hotel lobby and was enthralled by the gorgeous decoration. She walked to the front desk naturally while holding the computer. "Sorry, all the rooms are booked today."

At the reception desk in the lobby, the etiquette lady looked at Kara with a smile. She could deduce the approximate income of this woman at a glance, so she did not consider asking the other party for a superior room or above.

"I'm just here to find someone."

Opening the folder, Kara blinked and became a little silent.

Who can tell her why there are three people's files in the marriage registration information package, one male and two female, and they are still in Japanese.

[It’s so great to have votes, right? Just speak English when you come to the United States, you bastard! 】

"Then who are you looking for?" The receptionist's smile softened a bit: "By the way, I forgot to tell you that if guests in the superior rooms complain, we will sue you."

"I..." Kara looked at the three files for a while, then hesitantly showed the boy's file to the receptionist: "Can you help me check this gentleman's room number?"

"Sorry, we haven't seen him among the Japanese staying today."

【Um? I haven’t seen it before. Did I come here in vain? 】

Putting all the rest of the documents on the table, the receptionist glanced at it and then clicked on the photo of the girl with whom the man was angry: "I have an impression of this one. She lives in Room 8 on the twelfth floor, and she is with a tall man. There are also little girls living with us, and they came back not long ago.”

"That's it, thank you very much."

After putting the files away, Kara pressed the elevator button and looked at the flashing floor lights while holding her computer and thinking.

[Who is marrying whom? What's the matter with the fact that there are still people who can't stand up to each other? 】

"According to common sense, it should be a man and a woman, but there are two possibilities, and it does not exclude women..."

etc! She remembered a girl who seemed to be sixteen years old.

Without knocking on the door immediately after getting out of the elevator, Kara sat on the sofa in the rest area on the floor, connected the computer to the card device, and after binding to the hotel's wireless network, she slowly pulled out three files.

"This boy has just turned eighteen and should be one of the people getting married."

After pressing the boy's document, Kara dug out the tomboy's document and found that the age column was sixteen, which did not meet the marriage standards of Las Vegas.

"Looking at it this way, it's probably the remaining girl and this boy."

Taking out her cell phone and searching for the Suzuki Consortium, Kara stopped at the heir's side.

"If the eldest daughter marries outside, is the second daughter the only one who has the right to inherit?"

Looking at Suzuki Sonoko wearing a headband, Kara scrolled through the photos of various activities of the Suzuki Foundation, and sure enough, she found that this boy appeared in several pictures.

"But the photo on her file didn't have her hairband on, so I almost didn't recognize her."

Holding the brown-haired girl's document in her hand, Kara used her pen to slightly block the forehead on the photo to make sure it was her and the boy. As for the front desk, probably to protect customer privacy, they deliberately told the wrong person to book a room, right?

After shredding Suzuki Yuko's documents with a simple paper shredder, Kara put them into the discard bag she brought, complaining about the carelessness of the Suzuki Consortium staff as to how they could put this unrelated girl's documents into the bag.

"The next step is to make sure they are in the room, and then I will check in." (End of Chapter)
