Go through the long corridor and arrive at the party venue below.

The first thing that caught his eye was something Qin Zhibo had seen before - a group of bronze statues of battle angels.

These bronze statues were originally placed in the headquarters building of Sindora Company, but now they have been specially transported to Japan, which shows how much Sindora attaches importance to this press conference.

Five majestic bronze statues stand in the center of the pool, and on the edge of the pool, some children are playing in the water.

Their parents were standing nearby chatting without any intention of stopping them.

It seems that parents of naughty children all over the world are the same

Mouri Kogoro and the young detective team were all attracted away by the delicious food and wine in the food area. Only Qin Zhibo admired the bronze statue of Battle Angel alone.

At this moment, a childish voice came from behind Qin Zhibo.

"Where did your badge come from?"

Qin Zhibo looked back and saw a little boy wearing a red suit, with a cool haircut and a football in his hand.

Looking at the name on the child's head, his name is Hideki Morohoshi, and he is 12 years old this year.

"Is that what you're asking?" Qin Zhibo pointed to the game badge on his chest.

"right."

Hideki Morohoshi nodded and said in a scornful tone, "But don't get me wrong, I am also qualified to experience the game at this conference, and I will get this badge soon."

"I want to ask you, why can you get the badge before everyone else?"

"Did you cheat?"

This question stunned Qin Zhibo for a moment.

Looking around again, it turns out that no one else is wearing a badge except myself.

Aren’t the game badges for this conference distributed in advance?

In fact, after the accident at the last Boston press conference, Syndora optimized the process and changed it to issue badges at the press conference to prevent someone from planning a murder plan before the press conference.

This small change made it difficult for Qin Zhibo to answer this question for a while.

You can’t say that you are a beta player, right?

At this moment, a man who was also admiring the bronze statue came over.

"Hideki! Don't be rude."

Morohoshi Hideki looked back, his domineering aura instantly weakened by three points.

Qin Zhibo also glanced at this man in a neat suit and a serious face. His name was Shio Morohoshi and his occupation was a police officer (Deputy Director of Police).

Deputy Director of Police!

In the Japanese police circles, the deputy police chief is second only to the police chief.

Moreover, this man's social credit is 8,900, which exceeds almost all the policemen Qin Zhibo has ever met, except the White Horse Police Chief.

"Hello, Mr. Zhu Xing." Qin Zhibo politely extended his right hand.

Seeing that the other party recognized him, Shio Morohoshi's vanity was satisfied, and he returned his right hand with a smile.

"Hello."

"how should I address you?"

Qin Zhibo replied in a neither humble nor arrogant tone: "My name is Qin Zhibo, and I am a private detective."

Hearing Qin Zhibo's name, Zhu Xingzhifu's face was slightly startled, but he regained his composure in an instant.

"It turns out to be the famous private detective. I have admired his name for a long time."

The two of them started chatting like this, and they separated after the guests came in one after another.

After walking away for a while, Hideki Morohoshi looked at Shio Morohoshi in confusion.

"Grandpa, isn't that man just a private detective who can be seen everywhere? Is there any need to talk to him so much?"

Hideki Morohoshi, who comes from a family of police officers, has a serious class concept in his heart and disdains to associate with ordinary people.

However, as soon as Hideki Morohoshi's words fell, Shifu Morohoshi stood still and said seriously: "Hideki, if you want to inherit my position in the future, you must learn to watch people's words and emotions, and you must not provoke anyone you can't afford to offend.

people."

"That Qin Zhibo was able to obtain the badge in advance that celebrities from all walks of life in Japan are striving for, shows that he must have a lot of energy behind him."

"Coupled with his mixed-race face, I have reason to suspect that he is an American with a lot of energy behind him."

As a deputy police director, Toshio Morohoshi guessed so much information in the short exchange just now.

But Hideki Morohoshi still had a look of disdain on his face, playing with the football in his hand, "Isn't he just an American? What's so great about him?"

After hearing his grandson's words, Morohoshi Toshio's expression became more serious, and he turned around to educate his grandson seriously.

"Remember, Hideki."

"The world is more complicated than you think."

"Although our family is already considered top in Japan, this is only a privilege given to us by our status as Japanese police."

"The privileges brought by the police are only influential in Japan."

"In fact, within the Japanese police community alone, the Hakuba family is at the absolute top of our Morohoshi family, and the Hattori family in Osaka is on equal footing with us."

"Internationally, those Americans with strong backgrounds should not be easily provoked."

Shio Morohoshi's words stopped abruptly.

He suddenly felt that it was too early for him to start teaching his grandson how to behave in the international world.

When Hideki Morohoshi saw that his grandfather had stopped preaching, he turned around and went to play ball with several other friends of the same class.

"Why--"

The sight of his grandson bouncing around made Shifu Morohoshi let out a long sigh.

At present, the Japanese police force is unlikely to change among their generation. The only one Morohoshi Toshio can place his hope on is the next generation.

However, Toshio Morohoshi's son is not very impressive. Even with the support of himself as the deputy police director, he has never reached a height enough to inherit his position as deputy director.

Although Japan implements a hereditary system, the talents must be at least about the same level, otherwise the family will become increasingly declining.

To put it simply, in the high-end situation of replacing high-level personnel in the Japanese police force, even Toshio Morohoshi cannot bring up his incompetent son.

Therefore, Shio Morohoshi can only place all his hopes on his son, Hideki Morohoshi.

However, this grandson has liked playing football since he was a child and is not interested in detectives or cases at all.

This made Shio Morohoshi very disappointed.

The second generation of the Hakuba family and the Hattori family has established a lot of popularity at home and abroad at a young age and has become a famous high school detective.

As long as the elders in the family pave the way, it is almost certain that the police chief and police inspector will succeed their father's generation in the future.

In contrast, my grandson only likes to play football!

What's the use of this?

No matter how good you play football, it won't help solve the case!

You can't expect every football to kill a prisoner, right?

If this child can't do it, let the son do it while he's still young.

A small game conference has already given Shio Morohoshi the idea of ​​practicing the third generation trumpet.

Separating from the two stars, Qin Zhibo temporarily put away the badge and went to the food area.

In addition to the children playing in the water by the pool, Qin Zhibo glanced around the venue and found that there were many more children at this press conference.

Although there were guests with children at the last press conference in Boston, they were very few.

However, at this press conference, naughty children were everywhere, and those who didn’t know it thought they were entering a children’s paradise.

However, apart from the large number of children at this press conference, the invited guests are as always high in social credibility and are involved in various fields in Japan.

Director of the Metropolitan Police, boss of the financial industry, member of the Senate

If a fanatic were to plant a bomb here and take care of the old and the young, I'm afraid Japan's social order would be restored.

While Qin Zhibo was observing the surrounding environment, Mouri Kogoro had already started drinking happily.

For such grand occasions, Mouri Kogoro has always been more open-minded and regarded it as a free drinking event.

A waiter passed by carrying a tray full of drinks. Kogoro Mouri picked up two glasses, one red wine and one brandy, and drank the two glasses of wine.

“Delicious!”

Mao Lilan was a little worried about this and couldn't help but warn: "Dad, it seems that the top police officials are here today. You must not drink too much."

Mao Lilan thought it was when Kogoro Maori was working in the Metropolitan Police Department, but now that he is a free man outside the system, he is not afraid of that at all.

"Don't worry, you won't get drunk if you drink high-end wine!"

"Continued Cup!"
