Chapter 168 [Chapter 167] Threatening Letter
"No, Mr. Mori, you can't drink any more."
In a bar located in Building B, Hidehiko Kazama's eyes were blurred and he couldn't stand up.
As for Moritani Teiji, he was already lying on the table motionless.
"Where are you now? It's just the fifth bottle of red wine. We talked so speculatively and happily today. I have to stay drunk until I get home."
Kogoro took the red wine bottle, grabbed Hidehiko Kazama's neck, and tried to pour it into his mouth.
At this time, Secretary Sawaguchi poked his head in to take a look, then trotted in and whispered: "Mr. Mori, can I disturb you for a moment if I have something to do?"
Looking at Hidehiko Kazama, who was rolling his eyes and slumped in his seat, Kogoro looked up to the sky with some boredom and drank the bottle of red wine in one gulp before nodding to Secretary Sawaguchi: "What's the matter?"
"Please come with me."
After Secretary Sawaguchi led Kogoro out of the bar, a middle-aged woman in a suit stood outside. When she saw Kogoro, she beamed: "I'm very sorry to bother you at this time, Mr. Mori."
Secretary Zeguchi introduced from the side: "This is the agent of tonight's Miss Beauty Pageant winner Shou Jialian, Ms. Shou Jiamei. She is also a good friend of mine. There is something I want to entrust you to investigate."
"Commission?"
Kogoro frowned: "What's the matter?"
Kamei Shou looked around and saw that because Gemini was not officially open to the public yet, there was no one around. She carefully took out a letter from her bag, handed it to Kogoro, and whispered: "This is what Jia Lian just received.
Jialian didn't take it seriously, but I was very worried."
"Threat letter?"
Kogoro took the envelope, opened it, and saw words cut from a newspaper stuck on a piece of A4 white paper: "You are not allowed to go on stage tonight, or you will be sent to heaven!!!"
Kogoro took the threatening letter and read it carefully up and down, and even came up to smell it. After a while, he put it away and asked Shoujiami: "Have you called the police?"
Shou Jiamei shook her head: "Jialian has just become the beauty pageant champion. If she calls the police, it may have an impact on her future, so I want to ask Mr. Maoli to find out about this matter."
"Have you received similar threatening letters before?"
"No."
"Then why is it tonight? The results of the beauty pageant have already been announced, and she is already the winner, so why must she threaten not to go on stage tonight? Is there any important event tonight?"
This last sentence was asked by Kogoro from his secretary Okizawaguchi.
Secretary Zeguchi said a little nervously: "Miss Shou Jialian will appear together with a mysterious gift, so it is still very important."
Kogoro frowned: "Gift? Mysterious gift?"
Secretary Zeguchi smiled bitterly and said: "No one can disclose it to the outside world without the permission of the chairman. I can only say that it was the finale of the banquet."
Kogoro stopped embarrassing Sawaguchi and looked at his agent Shou Jiamei: "Maybe the target of this threatening letter is not Miss Shou Jialian, but because of the gift."
"This event is very important to my sister. No matter what, Jialian will not give up this opportunity to appear."
Saying that, Shou Jiamei took out another thick envelope from her bag: "This is just a deposit. If Mr. Maoli can find out the truth or ensure Jialian's safety, Jialian and I will be even more grateful to Mr. Maoli."
Although Kogoro was not short of money, he felt a special sense of satisfaction for collecting the commission fee that was put in an envelope. He reached out to take the envelope and squeezed it lightly. Kogoro immediately laughed: "Agent Shoujiamei, Mrs.
You're welcome, let's start working now, I wonder where Miss Shou Jialian is now?"
"In Building A, the last rehearsal is taking place, and then we are preparing for tonight's performance."
"Okay, let's go to Building A."
Not long after Kogoro and the other two left, Hidehiko Kazama helped Moritani Teiji and carefully walked out of the bar. Before coming out, he stuck his head out and looked around to make sure Kogoro was really gone.
"Teacher, please don't ask Mr. Maori to drink again next time."
Hidehiko Kazama looked frightened: "You are drinking with others, but you are risking your life with Mr. Mori."
"You talk so much, how did I know he was so good at drinking."
Moritani Teiji's face turned pale: "You blow a bottle of red wine first when you come up. Is this normal?"
As he said that, his expression suddenly changed, he retched, and quickly waved his hand: "Go quickly, go quickly, I still want to vomit..."
Although they are biological sisters, Shou Jialian is much prettier than Shou Jiamei. Her agent Shou Jiamei is short and strong, with strong facial features. If it weren't for the ponytail, at first glance, she would have thought she was a man. And Shou Jialian is tall.
, with beautiful curves, exquisite facial features, and long black hair like a waterfall, she is worthy of being a beauty pageant champion.
It’s just this temperament...
"detective?"
Shou Jialian held a cigarette in her mouth, looked at Kogoro up and down, and said disdainfully: "Sister, you are really troublesome. Didn't I tell you that you don't need to take that letter to heart at all? What kind of detective are you looking for?
You look so sultry, you won’t be deceived, right?”
"Jialian, what are you talking about?"
Shoujiami said anxiously: "This is the famous detective Mr. Mouri Kogoro. Sister, I asked him to come out because of my connections. Now is the period when your career is on the rise. If you don't make it, others will be jealous and they will do something evil to you."
, so we have to guard against it.”
"It doesn't matter. I'm here to ensure that nothing happens to Jialian."
A middle-aged man who was even greasier than Kogoro came forward, put his arms around Shou Jialian's slender waist, held a cigar between his fingers, pointed at Kogoro and said: "I've heard of you, but sending threatening letters is not the best."
Things are common in the entertainment industry, so there is no need to make a fuss. It’s just you detectives who deliberately exaggerate to make money.”
Kogoro moved his nose, glanced vaguely at the cigar in the middle-aged man's hand, and smiled calmly: "I wonder who you are?"
"This is Chairman Miura. He organized and planned the previous beauty pageant."
Shou Jiamei quickly introduced.
No wonder Shou Jialian is the champion, that’s why.
Kogoro raised his eyebrows and nodded in realization.
"What kind of expression are you looking at? I'm warning you, don't think nonsense. I became the champion all through my own efforts and has nothing to do with anyone else."
Shou Jialian was so stimulated by Kogoro's little expression that she went crazy.
It's a pity that her outburst did not change Kogoro's expression. Instead, Miura next to him looked embarrassed.
"Jialian, you..."
"Shut up, too. You relied on me to become your agent. Without me, you are nothing. Just because you are my sister, you are telling me what to do. I tell you, if you talk nonsense in the future, I will fire you."
Shou Jialian almost threw the cigarette butt into Shou Jiamei's face.
"you……"
Shou Jiamei was almost furious. After seeing Shou Jialian venting her anger, she turned around and left. She took a few deep breaths, turned to Kogoro and said: "I'm sorry, Mr. Maori, I've been under a lot of pressure at work lately, so Jialian didn't sleep well."
, so the mood is a bit out of control, so please don’t take it to heart.”
"This threatening letter is not for me, why should I take it to heart?"
Kogoro returned the envelope to Shou Jiami and said with a smile: "By the way, remember to let Miss Jia Lian eat something good."
Shou Jiamei almost cried when she heard this: "Mr. Maoli, don't be like this."
Sorry, I can't take care of it, so I'm leaving.
Kogoro immediately ran away.
Nonsense, you don’t need to read the script to know that that woman is dead, even Jesus can’t save her, that’s what I’m saying.
Forgot to set the time, there will be a second update later
