Chapter 758 Cancellation
After parting with Xiao Ai and the others, Mitsuyu followed Hattori Heiji and Uncle Maori slowly walked on the street.
Several men didn't have the intention of shopping, but there were still several hours before the agreed time. It was really boring to wait now.
After asking a few people about their opinions, Uncle Maori led his group into an izakaya near a car rental company.
Because I had to investigate in the afternoon, Uncle Maori didn't drink alcohol, and only ordered some side dishes, such as fried chicken, grilled skewers, Kanto cooking, etc.
By the way, I was chatting with the izakaya boss whom I had known for a long time.
The other two were sitting at another table, Hattori Heiji and Conan were having a meal and chatting, while Mitsuo did not participate in the topic of the two of them.
He sat in his seat, eating the grilled skewers with sauce and texting to Xiao Ai.
After staying in the Izakaya for almost two hours, Uncle Maori settled the bill and took a few people away from the Izakaya.
...
At 4:30 pm, Koto Town Sichome.
A car slowly stopped in front of the gate of Zhujiao family.
After the car stopped, Hattori Heiji and Conan opened the door and got out of the car.
Standing in front of the door sign, confirming the specific address, and looking at the current time, Hattori Heiji frowned slightly.
He said with some distress: "It's here, but we were thirty minutes late, and I don't know if it will have any impact, so I feel it's a bit difficult."
"Thirty minutes?" Uncle Maori pulled out the car key, reached out to open the car door, and said while getting out of the car, "It's only thirty minutes, it shouldn't be so good."
"But Mr. Nankawa specifically told me that the other party was a very picky person about time." Hattori Heiji explained, "If it was only one or two minutes, it would be fine, but we were all an hour late."
"No matter what, we are all here...Ha~ah~" Guangyou closed the car door, yawned, reached out to wipe away the crystal clearness in the corner of his eyes, paused, and said, "Go in and ask first."
"Well, that's all." Hattori Heiji nodded, took a step, walked into the yard of the Mokaku family, and shouted, "Is anyone here?"
As soon as he walked a few steps, Hattori Heiji heard a female voice coming from the room, and he stopped.
"Please leave now, or I will call the police!"
Uncle Maori and Mitsuyu who followed him also heard the sound. Mitsuyu guessed: "Maybe they are rushing to get the salesman away."
"Maybe." Hattori Heiji did not comment. Listening to the movement inside, he put his hand on the door and opened a gap.
Then, the few people saw the owner of the voice just now, an older woman, and the years left obvious traces on her face.
In the entrance to the woman, a man in a suit stood.
After hearing the words, the man quickly explained: "I said it long ago. I didn't come to visit the mansion to force sales..."
"I just took the catalogue of antiques such as hanging scrolls, teapots and other antiques sold in my store for your reference."
Guangyou, who was "eavesdropping" openly at the door, raised his eyebrows.
Isn't this a promotion?
"I've told you."
The woman stood in the entrance, looked down at the man who came to sell, and said impatiently, "I have no interest in the dusty ragged iron."
"If that's the case, then I hope you can take down the key ring for the catalog and the booming business."
The man did not continue to get entangled like other salesmen, handing the catalog and key ring in his hand to the woman, and said kindly, "If you need it one day, come to our store."
"You don't have to worry about this." The woman did not reach out to take the directory and key ring, but instead raised her hand to hit the two things to the ground.
Then the woman snorted coldly and said disdainfully: "Our family is not too poor to collect free gifts like you."
The woman's patience seemed to have been worn out, and her face was filled with anger, and she shouted loudly at the man: "Please go out quickly, okay?"
The man was not angry, and after bowing a few times to apologize, he squatted down and picked up the directory and key ring that had fallen to the ground.
While picking up, he said, "No, sorry, I'm really disturbing you..."
After picking up his stuff, the man turned around and pushed open the door.
When he saw Guangyou and his group at the door, he was stunned for a moment, then bowed slightly, lowered his head slightly, and walked past the few people.
After the man left, the woman also saw the people at the door and asked, "What? Are you guys doing something?"
"We are here to inspect the scene on behalf of Mr. Nankawa." Uncle Maori retracted his gaze, showed a kind smile, and explained.
After hearing what Uncle Maori said, the woman nodded and said, "It turns out that it's because of that, but I don't need it anymore."
"Maybe it's because I've been too nervous recently that I feel that way. If there's nothing else, please come back."
Although I don’t know what happened, Uncle Maori didn’t ask much, and nodded with a smile and said to the woman: “That’s really disturbing you, let’s leave first.”
"Yeah, go slowly."
After making some polite treatment, Uncle Maori left the yard of Zhujiao's family with a few people.
"Uncle, can we go back?"
Seeing this current situation, Guangyou felt that it was impossible to continue investigating.
After all, the client has decided to cancel it, so what else can I investigate?
"Well, let's go back." Uncle Maori nodded, then looked at Hattori Heiji and asked, "Why is it different from what you said?"
When he was in the car, he asked Hattori Heiji about the approximate situation of the commission.
Probably, suspicious figures will appear nearby at night.
The woman was troubled by this, so she asked Mr. Nanchuan to come to her house to check the scene.
However, the situation is completely different from what you said now.
"I can't do anything, either." Hattori Heiji was helpless and defended himself. "Mr. Nankawa was imprisoned by that Obasan three days ago, so it's normal for changes."
"Don't worry about this. Since that aunt doesn't need to investigate, let's go back." Guangyou was thinking about going back early to buy some vegetables, and then preparing a big meal for Xiao Ai.
"But it's very strange." Conan put forward a different view, "It's obviously too troublesome that he has to entrust a detective to check it out. How could he say it's too neurotic?"
"Yes, I think there must be something wrong with that aunt." Hattori Heiji nodded and echoed.
"What's strange? What's the problem."
After looking at Hattori Heiji, he looked at Conan again. Mitsuyu shook his head helplessly and said, "I don't want to investigate, do you still have to investigate?"
"Yes." Uncle Maori just felt that he had a waste of time today and did not feel that there was anything wrong with that woman.
If you insist on talking about the problem, you have a little temper.
This can also be explained, perhaps because the woman hates sales, or perhaps because she has been in a bad mood these days.
"I think we'd better go back." Uncle Maori looked at the current time and said to the few people, "Jusu said, since they canceled the commission, there would be nothing we can do."
