The Working Emperor starts with Conan

Chapter 80 Accidents caused by human nature

"Is this the child who was adopted by the Takasugi family?" The old director of the orphanage recognized the child in the photo at a glance.

It's not because the old dean has a good memory, but because there are only a handful of people in the entire orphanage who can be adopted by wealthy families like the Takasugi family.

To put it bluntly, Toshihiko Takasugi can be regarded as a representative of one-step success.

Even if the old dean forgets everyone, he will never forget Toshihiko Takasugi.

"Yes, that's him." Yuan Shanfei nodded, and then asked the old dean: "Do you still remember his original name?"

"Why do you ask?
  who are you? "

The old dean asked Yuan Shanfei very warily.

No matter whether the old dean is thinking for Takasugi Toshihiko or for himself.

Takasugi Toshihiko can only maximize the interests of the two of them in the Takasugi family.

Perhaps the old dean himself does not seek repayment from Takasugi Toshihiko, but in any case, as long as Takasugi Toshihiko successfully takes over, this will be a personal connection for the old dean and even his children.

So when Tobi Toyama revealed that he wanted to explore Takasugi Toshihiko's past experiences, the old dean seemed very wary.

There are actually reasons for this from Yuan Shan Fei himself.

Toyama Fei has been either talking to Rum remotely or meeting Gin recently.

The whole person's temperament is inevitably tainted with the atmosphere of the black organization.

In the Metropolitan Police Department, because of the blessing of the "Flower of the Metropolitan Police Department", these criminal police officers looked at Yuan Shanfei more and more.

But other people who are not affected by Yuanshan Fei's buff and have keen senses will have a vague feeling at the first sight of Yuan Shan Fei, "This kid doesn't look very easy to get in touch with."

In the past, the old dean had to deal with some sensitive orphans all day long. Over time, the old dean naturally developed a delicate heart with seven orifices.

The first impression Yuan Shan Fei made on the old dean was not very good.

Yuan Shanfei did not directly answer the old dean's question.

The reason why he appeared here today at the old dean's house was for no other reason than to make a statement that would put him on the stage.

Toyama Tobi remembered everything about Takasugi Toshihiko and Matsumoto Sayuri.

But Toyama Tobi can't be like a magic stick, running to Matsumoto Kiyonaga and talking loudly.

Just do this once or twice, and people will at best think you are well-informed.

But once it happens too many times, everyone has to realize that something is wrong.

With a little bit of fuss, you can get an honest statement, so why not?

Thinking of this, Tobi Toyama asked the old dean: "Did you know that Takasugi Toshihiko is going to get married soon?"

The old dean nodded and said nothing.

Toyama Tobi continued indifferently: "The person he married is the daughter of Matsumoto Kiyonaga, the manager of the 1st Investigation Section of the Metropolitan Police Department.

Judging from the size of the Takasugi family group, the combination of the two is considered a perfect match. "

The old dean somewhat understood what Yuan Shanfei meant and asked tentatively: "Are you a policeman?"

"No, I'm not." Tobi Toyama did not take the opportunity to admit his identity as a police officer: "Although I am not a police officer, I need to rely on the Metropolitan Police Department for many jobs.

To be precise, it should be based on the search lesson, so he is half a member of the Metropolitan Police Department. "

People of the old dean's age used to run orphanages.

They can be considered well-informed. The best way to deal with such people is to express "facts" with nine truths and one falsehood.

Sure enough, seeing that Yuan Shanfei did not acknowledge his identity as a police officer, the vigilance in the old dean's eyes faded a bit.

But he still asked Toyama Tobi: "Since you rely on the Metropolitan Police Department for a living, you also know that Toshihiko will soon become the son-in-law of Administrator Matsumoto. Why are you still investigating him?"

Aren't you afraid that Manager Matsumoto will be angry if he finds out? "

"Administrator Matsumoto will be angry if he finds out?" Toyama Tobi heard the old dean's words and laughed without holding back:
  "If what I found is really what I thought, Administrator Matsumoto would only thank me even if he knew about it.

Won't get mad at me.

On the contrary, it is hard to say what will happen to Takasugi Toshihiko at that time. "

Yuan Shanfei's words made the old dean freeze on the spot. On the surface, the old dean remained calm, but in his heart, he was full of twists and turns.

What did that kid Toshiyan do to make the young man in front of him say this with such certainty?

The old dean quickly made a decision and said sternly to Toyama Fei: "I can cooperate with your investigation.

But I want to be with you.

Don't worry, if there is anyone in this world who understands Junyan better than Junyan's adoptive parents, it must be me. "

The old dean's straightforward agreement made Yuan Shanfei a little surprised.

Before he could use his "coin throwing method", the old dean had already agreed to cooperate with his "investigation".

Yuan Shanfei had finally realized the good intentions of the old dean. The old man wanted to participate in his investigation because he was clearly afraid that Yuan Shanfei would tamper with the investigation results.

With the current weak relationship between Takasugi Toshihiko and the old dean, the old man can do this.

Yuan Shanfei was in awe of the old dean: "You are indeed a very good dean."

Yuan Shanfei nodded and agreed to the old dean's request.

The old director was also unambiguous. According to Toyama Tobi's request, he reported the original name that Takasugi Toshihiko sent to the orphanage.

The time when he was sent to the orphanage, and his behavior when he first entered the orphanage.

After everything was said, the old dean even looked at Yuan Shanfei expectantly: "Where should we go to investigate next?"

Looking at the old dean who had a childlike innocence and even rubbed his hands like a fly, Yuan Shanfei suddenly realized.

He forgot that this place was the town of Rice Flower. The detective gene engraved in the bones of the Rice Flower people made them unable to refuse to briefly experience the joy of being a detective.

However, Toyama Fei's investigation methods may disappoint the old dean.

Toyama Tobi took out his cell phone from his pocket and dialed Officer Takagi: "Is Officer Takagi busy?

If you're not busy, could you help me check something? "

Old Dean: "Huh?"

"You just contacted the police directly?"

Yuan Shanfei said matter-of-factly: "Yes, what else?

How convenient is it to contact the police~

If the two of us investigate this kind of thing ourselves, it will take time and we may not be able to find it out.

Wouldn’t it be much more convenient to hand it over to the detectives from the Search Section 1~"

The main focus of the Toyama Investigation Method is to use tools effectively. For an excellent tool person like Officer Takagi, there is no need to use them in vain.

Anyway, with Officer Takagi's current status of searching the first section, he can only attack people when he appears on the scene.

Or just writing reports in the office.

Now he is following me across the hierarchy to investigate his boss’s boss. How exciting is this experience~
  Takagi, who was far away in the Metropolitan Police Department, found it quite exciting.

He even felt that Yuan Shanfei had some serious illness!
  Not big brother, what do you think?
  Manager Matsumoto sent you an invitation letter, and you started investigating him directly?
  Isn’t all your human sophistication reduced to accidents?
