Early the next morning, Gao Yuanzhao sent away the exhausted Chuncai, and took Xiaolan around Tokyo again, watching a movie and having lunch.

Just when they got back to the office, ready to take a "nap"

At that time, Kogoro and Conan finally returned.

Both were panting and looking tired.

"What's going on, it feels like the two of you have been squeezed dry, what's going on!"

"According to my brother, let me tell you, that... The people from the Ogata family are just... vampires, I was just trying to do a favor yesterday, but I was dragged by their family and turned the whole mansion over until I was busy. I'm exhausted this afternoon!"

"I haven't slept all night, and I haven't slept all night! I'm not in high spirits now:."

Gao Yuanzhao said, and put his arms around Xiaolan next to him.

"Don't talk nonsense, Mr. Zhao, didn't you sleep soundly in the second half of the night?"

Xiao Lan explained with a blushing face, but it was getting darker and darker.

"Bullshit?"

Gao Yuanzhao rubbed Xiaolan's face affectionately, not letting his wretched expression be seen.

He didn't talk nonsense. After cleaning up Xiaolan in the first half of the night, he went back to his room in the second half of the night. Considering that it was the first time for the other party, he didn't do it directly, but just passed the desire of brotherhood.

As for how intimate Gao Yuanzhao and Xiaolan have become, Xiaogoro has long been aware of it, and he usually takes it easy, not to mention that now he still has a lot of bitterness to pour.

"If it's just all night, I'll endure it, you know, the three people in their family have been sneering endlessly, isn't it because they haven't found it? I'm just a helper, as if I owe them."

Speaking of this, Kogoro tickled his teeth with hatred, and at the same time looked at Conan with a displeased expression.

"And this stinky brat, who disturbed my thoughts there. He said that the stamp was on the spiritual seat, but he couldn't find it. The family also blamed me for disturbing the sleep of the dead. I... woo woo!"

Before Kogoro could finish speaking, Gao Yuanzhao covered his mouth with bread.

"Xiao Lan is still here, don't swear."

"Aaaaaaaaaaa!"

As a result, Kogoro ate the bread in a few bites and continued to complain.

"The most important thing is that because I couldn't find it, I didn't even care about eating...

I'm full, and I still don't look good at the dinner table, their family is really in trouble, I don't want to deal with them anymore... More bread."

The dry water was almost over, and Kogoro started to eat. At this time, Conan eagerly came up and showed his "music box to remind the spirit position".

Gao Yuanzhao told Gao Yuanzhao's conjecture.

"Isn't it a spiritual position?"

Gao Yuanzhao frowned, "It can't be that you accidentally brought it out. I didn't move to take things before, just... I thought it might be inside, I'm afraid it might fall out accidentally, and I won't be able to tell when the time comes."

"fall out"

Conan recalled before, as if he really took it out, and was violently snatched by Kogoro.

"Uncle Maori, that . . . stamp may be wrapped in a quilt."

"Don't say it, I beg you, don't say it, I don't have any contact with my family. If you like you to go there, of course, if they don't reimburse you for your travel expenses, don't come to me."

It was the first time that Kogoro was seen as a wolf, but he didn't look happy. Maybe it was because the family left him with a "deep" impression.

"According to my brother, there will be... love in the future, please wake me up, I will never be involved!"

"Is that so? Someone specially invited you to attend the opening ceremony. It's a big company in the Tiannv Mountain area, and you'll even have accommodation tonight."

Gao Yuanzhao handed over a hardcover invitation, and the sluggish Kogoro immediately came to life and snatched the invitation.

"I'll go, if it's a big business, there's definitely a free dinner. If I don't go, it's... free..."

Halfway through his words, Kogoro got stuck, put the invitation on the table, and regained his sluggish demeanor.

"Cough cough, I'm really tired today, I think I'd better take a rest, I won't go for the time being!"

"Hey, do you want to rest, or because you are afraid of heights!"

Gao Yuanzhao said strangely.

After listening to Gao Yuanzhao's words, Conan curiously leaned over to read the invitation, only to find out that it was a tourism company that invited Kogoro to participate in the launching ceremony of tomorrow's high-altitude cable car project.

"Hehehe, it's fortunate that my uncle didn't finish speaking, otherwise he would become an idiot!"

Conan thought bitterly.

"Since you're not going, Xiaogoro, I'll take Xiaolan. I called them before, and they're very welcome there."

"Whatever you want, as long as you don't lose the prestige of my Maori Detective Agency, I'll go to rest first."

Kogoro waved his hand and walked out of the office, walking upstairs.

"Conan-kun, are you going!"

Xiaolan approached Conan enthusiastically, how could Conan refuse to ask for this kind of thing.

"I... I also feel very tired, so I went up to rest!"

After finishing speaking, Conan Fei also followed Xiaogoro away, Gao Yuanzhao also put away his death stare and took Xiaolan's hand to prepare to set off.

"If they don't go, the two of us will set off now, maybe we can try that... aerial cable car before dinner."

Since Gao Yuanzhao has his own car, he doesn't need to take the tram like Kogoro, so he didn't hear the legend of Tiannv Mountain mentioned by an old woman in a shrine on the tram.

The two talked and laughed all the way, and came to Tianbe City, where a long-haired beauty with a sign greeted them.

"I'm Yoshino Ayaka, secretary of Domoto Tourism Company. I've been waiting here for a long time. Please give me more advice."

"When I was on the phone with you before, I thought the voice was nice. I didn't expect people to be so beautiful. I'm Gao Yuanzhao, and here is my girlfriend Mao Lilan. Please give me more advice on this visit."

Gao Yuanzhao's expression is serious, and there is nothing wrong with his compliments, that is, when he shook hands, he squeezed without any trace, it was very soft and comfortable.

"By the way, Miss Ayaka, it doesn't matter what you call it! I want to ask you something."

In order to divert the attention of the other party, Gao Yuanzhao decisively asked a question first.

"It's okay, please talk!"

"When I was on the road before, I found that the market in Tianbu City seems to be very prosperous, and there are many tourists, but there are also many opposing brands. Can you explain the reason?"

"Yes, Mr. Zhao explained to me before that this is 'tourism-driven development', but after seeing the signs hanging on the street and those ... objections, the whole person was embarrassed: Embarrassed."

Xiaolan remembered the change in Gao Yuanzhao's expression before, and couldn't help snickering.

However, Ayaka on the opposite side didn't seem to be infected, and she still frowned.

"Sorry, I'm not very clear about the specific reasons. It's probably some legends about Tiannv Mountain. The residents here are more traditional, so they are opposed to these... new things."

"Legend? It seems that the purpose of your president's invitation is not just to invite me to the opening ceremony."

"this..."

Ayaka bowed her body and said, "The president will explain in person when the time comes, please forgive me."

"Haha, the dignified police officer of Tokyo is able to come to our small place, it really makes us shine!"

Domoto Eizo, the president of the Domoto Tourism Company, stood guard at the entrance of his company, and warmly invited Takatosho in.

"My visit here is probably a private trip, and I also ask President Domoto not to publicize it."

Gao Yuanzhao is very low-key, holding Xiaolan's hand and reminding.

"Since it is the police officer's request, we will naturally satisfy it, and we didn't drive to pick it up. I'm really sorry, please come in quickly!"

Although this guy's project has caused the citizens of Tianbu to oppose it, in terms of etiquette, it is true that there are no flaws, and the compliments are also wave after wave.

It wasn't until everyone sat down in the reception room that he cryptically stated his real purpose.

"I originally wanted to invite the famous Maori detective, but I didn't expect to welcome your Excellency the police. With Your Excellency in charge, I think tomorrow's opening ceremony will be foolproof."

"It's foolproof, it seems that this invitation has another purpose!"

Gao Yuanzhao asked with a smile, Domoto Eizo did not explain, but looked at a middle-aged man with glasses beside him.

"This is my eldest son, Domoto Yasunori, who is also the vice president of our Domoto Tourism Company. It is he who proposed the invitation this time."

After speaking, Domoto Eizo gave his eldest son a wink, and Domoto Bao immediately continued.

"That's right, we have another purpose in inviting Your Excellency to visit us this time."

"I think it has something to do with the residents outside... who are against it. Their opposition to the... aerial cable car doesn't seem to be limited to fear of legends, so it seems that tomorrow's opening ceremony should face multiple pressures. ."

"As expected of your Excellency the police from Tokyo, in fact, only local businesses and a small number of residents who actually benefited from this plan are in favor of this plan, so the obstruction from all walks of life is very large."

"Not only that!"

Eizo Domoto added.

"The outside media also took this opportunity to report untrue news that is not good for our company. My son is really worried that there will be problems with the opening ceremony tomorrow, so he thought of letting some authoritative people come to maintain order, but he didn't expect to invite to you."

"This is..."

Gao Yuanzhao tapped lightly on the armrest with his fingers.

"As a police officer, maintaining order in public places is what I should do, but can President Domoto confirm that all the media reports are fake news or whether your company really violated the law."

"Your Excellency can rest assured on this point! There are all rumors and lies outside, and the company will never break the law."

Domoto Eizo immediately got up and denied it, but after realizing that his reaction was a little fierce, the conversation changed again.

"Your Excellency, the introduction is not over yet. This is my second son, Junpei Domoto, who is now running an import grocery company."

"That's right, you have your own career at such a young age."
