Chapter 97
I had just finished cleaning up and wrapped myself in the quilt, thinking of catching up on a good night's sleep, when I was woken up by a phone call.
"Conan, what's wrong?"
"Murong, are you asleep?" When Conan heard the confused and slightly annoyed voice, he guessed that he was probably in a lucid dream.
"Well! I just fell asleep and was woken up by you again..."
"Uh..." That's really it! A row of black lines slid down Conan's head. "Sorry, I just got some news about the engagement ceremony, so..."
"News about the engagement ceremony? What news?" I asked casually, rubbing my relaxed eyes.
"Oh, that's it. Hattori called just now and said that his father was invited to attend your engagement ceremony..."
"Correction!" I interrupted righteously: "It's not my engagement ceremony, because I have no intention of going there at all. Moreover, the Hattori you are talking about is not the Hattori Heiji from Kansai, right?"
"Do you know Hattori?" Conan was stunned for a moment. Murong knew Hattori?
"I don't know him, I just have admired the name for a long time. Is he going to come to the engagement ceremony held by the Ito family and the Ijuin family? Can you find out who will be attending?"
"Hattori said that basically all the famous people in Kansai have been invited. I think it should be the same in other places. The Ijuin family and the Ito family have invited so many celebrities this time, presumably because they want to pass this engagement ceremony.
Confirm the marriage relationship and announce your identity to everyone."
I snorted disdainfully: "What they want to do is their business, and I have no obligation to cooperate with them."
"However, the grander their engagement ceremony is and the more celebrities they invite, the more confident they are that you will attend the ceremony. In this case, they must have planned that you have to attend the engagement ceremony.
Way." Conan said worriedly.
After hearing what he said, I also gave up my sleepiness and began to seriously consider this issue. The Ito family would deny my identity in the first place. Although a large part of it was due to the pressure from the Yamaguchi family, it cannot be ruled out that part of it was also for preservation.
The reputation of the Ito family. Moreover, the Ijuin family can be regarded as one of the more powerful families in Tokyo. This time they invited celebrities from all over the country to participate in an engagement ceremony.
Li, if the heroine doesn't show up, the face of both families will fall to the ground, and they won't be able to pick it up again. Moreover, the location is at the open-air restaurant on the top floor of the Tokyo Hotel. Such a large battle requires
I don't believe it, let alone Conan, if they say they have no backup plan. But now that I am alone and hiding in this courtyard, what on earth will they think of to get me to attend the engagement ceremony?
"Now we have absolutely no control over the movements of the two of them. The combined power of the two is too great for us, and there are too many means at our disposal. We have no way of predicting what they want to do." Conan racked his brains.
Thinking about it mentally.
"If you can't think of the positive side, just think of the other side!" I said.
"Think about it the other way around?" Conan was surprised.
"That's right, since we can't predict what tricks the two of them will do, then let's think about it, what is there in me that is worthy of their attack. Now I am locked up in Bieyuan, and here they are
If people can’t get in, it’s impossible to kidnap them by force.” I analyzed.
"Since we can't attack from the front, we can only use the people around you to control you." Conan followed my train of thought and began to analyze.
"However, my mother passed away last year, and I have no other relatives in Japan. As for the people I usually interact with, Atobe and the squad leader have family backgrounds much older than these two, so it is absolutely impossible to attack them.
.”
"The only people who have social relations with you, can use them to threaten you, and have no family background are..." Conan's thoughts suddenly became clear.
"Oops!" I felt a chill in my heart when I thought of this: "Conan, we must confirm Ono's safety immediately!"
"I know, tell me her home address and I'll go there now." Conan rushed to the entrance and took out the notepad he carried with him.
After making this call, I had no sleepiness at all. The phone was placed next to my right hand and I glanced at it from time to time. The clock on the screen moved tick by tick. Finally, after the minute hand turned half a circle, the phone rang.
Ringed.
"How's it going?" I answered the phone immediately and asked.
"It's too late!" Conan's voice sounded unwillingly on the other end of the phone.
My heart sank. I clenched my left hand, closed my eyes and said to myself, don't panic, don't panic, the most important thing now is to calm down, and I must find a way to ensure Ono's safety.
Conan leaned on the side of the road, listening to the silence on the other end of the phone. He knew very well how Murong was feeling at the moment, because every time he came into contact with a case that involved Xiaolan and some people around him, his mood was also the same as Murong's at the moment.
Like everyone else, anxious, flustered, panicked, but had to force myself to calm down.
"What's the specific situation?"
Hearing the deep voice coming from the other end of the phone, Conan's heart was finally relieved. The Murong he knew was indeed not someone who could be defeated so easily.
Conan sorted out his thoughts and began to tell Murong what he knew: "When I rushed to Ono's house, she had been missing all night. Ono's mother said that she went out at 3:30 yesterday afternoon.
She would go home for dinner when she was ready, but she didn’t come back all night last night, and she didn’t call home either. Her family was also very worried, so they called her friend’s house to inquire, but they said she would be there at five o’clock.
Went back."
"Didn't you call the police?"
"Not yet. According to Japanese law, the police station will not accept a disappearance case until the disappearance lasts for at least forty-eight hours."
Missing all night! That is probably a good thing done by the Ito family. The Ito family has relied on the support of the Yamaguchi family to grow and develop unscrupulously over the years. For the sake of profit, they can do anything. When I think of the Yamaguchi family

Being able to participate, I became more and more worried about Xiaoye's safety. I hope they can see that Xiaoye is still useful and won't do anything excessive to her. Otherwise, I, Murong Ziyun, will definitely do it.
Let them pay with blood!
After Conan finished telling what he knew about the situation, he asked after a while: "What are you going to do now?"
I calmed down and said, "In this situation, we can't do anything before the engagement ceremony. Once the Ito family is angered, Ono will be in danger."
"Then, do you plan to attend the engagement ceremony according to the Ito family's wishes?" Conan frowned slightly.
"Ono is in their hands and I have no choice but to go with it. However, it's not certain whether it goes according to their wishes or not." I narrowed my eyes, and there was a hint of chill in my cold gaze.
Murong's low but firm voice made Conan slightly startled. Wouldn't she do what they wanted? What exactly did she want? Or, in this situation, what else could she do?
"I think……"
"Huh?" Conan was interrupted from his thoughts by a slightly hesitant voice on the other end of the phone.
"Perhaps, we need to meet. Some things must be planned carefully."
"Yeah! That's right!" Conan thought carefully: "But, the meeting place..."
"Let's go to the doctor's house!" I thought for a while and said: "Tomorrow, tomorrow at the latest, I will go to the doctor's house to find you. Before that, we must have all useful information!"
"Understood!"
I put down the phone and took a deep breath. The most important thing now is to calm down! If even I am confused, Ono will not be saved. If it is really someone from the Ito family or the Ijuin family who intercepted Ono, then they should be very
Easy to get my phone number. Until now
By not contacting me yet, do they want me to be anxious and get into trouble first? Or do they simply not think that I will discover their intentions so quickly? In any case, the current situation is very unfavorable for me. It must be
Just stay calm and think of a countermeasure!
I got up and went to the kitchen to make myself a cup of strong tea and turned on the computer to search for useful information. The Tokyo Hotel is the most luxurious five-star hotel in Tokyo. The decoration is not only high-end and gorgeous, but also has a semicircular arch on the top floor of the 31st floor.
shape, all covered with transparent tempered glass. When the weather permits, the roof can be opened from the middle to become a veritable open-air restaurant. Ordinary people may not be able to go to this kind of place once in their lifetime, but the Ito family and the Ijuin family actually
flower
How dare you to spend so much money to hold an engagement ceremony on the entire top floor! Conan must have guessed right this time. They must have invited celebrities from all over Japan. But the bigger they organize it, it means they know how to treat me.
Appear in code
The more confident I am at the ceremony. Could it be that what happened in the past two days are just testing me? It made me think that they were only targeting me, so I relaxed my attention to the people around me, and then started targeting Ono. Ito Renshoumaru,
He is indeed an old fox.
In the evening, I burned all the information I found on a floppy disk and planned to take it to the doctor's house tomorrow. I randomly found something to eat from the refrigerator, and then went to the warehouse with a lantern. I just started learning the art of disguise to use it.
Just in case, I was afraid that it would be inconvenient when I go out in the future, but I didn't expect that it would come in handy so soon.
After finding the tools I needed from the warehouse, I began to prepare the things that might be used to make disguises. Disguise pills, **, mustard powder, and some disguise props. After finishing them,
