"Ran, worthy of being Aunt Eri's daughter, truly becoming more and more beautiful."
Hearing Yuu Hoshimiya's praise, the joy on Ran's face was revealed without a doubt.
She carefully put the photo into her handbag, ignoring Conan over there who wanted to act shamelessly relying on his identity as a child.
Ran knew Conan's true identity; this brat dared not go too far.
At that time, being mixed doubles by Ran and Yuu Hoshimiya, no one could save him.
Not only did she not show Conan his appearance ten years later, but Ran also joked immediately: "Next it's Ai and Conan's turn to take photos."
While speaking, she picked up Ai in Yuu Hoshimiya's arms. Ai hurriedly refused: "Forget about me; I don't want to play this boring game."
Ran chuckled: "But I want to see what Ai looks like when she grows up?"
She put Ai on the seat, then left.
Ran knew Conan's appearance ten years later was Shinichi Kudo, so naturally she had no interest, just simply scaring him.
Conan was pushed up by Mitsuhiko and Genta with a panic-stricken face, pressed on the seat.
Bad! Identity is going to be exposed.
The two fake children looked at Yuu Hoshimiya in panic, trying to ask for help.
But Yuu Hoshimiya just smiled and watched, not intending to stop it.
He wanted to see if the machine would still report an error, and to what extent the event had changed.
Based on the subsequent situation, his response would also be different.
Of course, if the machine really produced photos of Shinichi Kudo and Shiho Miyano, Noah, who had long infiltrated the main computer of Tokiwa Group, would also intercept them in advance.
Thus, amidst the puzzlement and nervousness of the two fake children, the machine began scanning.
Different from before, this scan didn't spit out photos after finishing, but a line of red words 'ERROR' lit up on the screen.
The whole instrument stopped working. Conan and Ai had no expression on their faces, but were extremely lucky in their hearts.
Yuu Hoshimiya received Noah's notification that the machine malfunctioned itself; Noah didn't interfere.
Knowing the event was still developing along the established destiny, he became more relaxed.
Since the general direction hadn't changed, then today he just needed to be responsible for enjoying.
Wait until the first deceased appears, then go to complete the task assigned by Gin, and then only saving Mio Tokiwa at the opening gala remains.
Mmm mmm, very easy!
Looking at Yuu Hoshimiya who was leisurely and even more relaxed, the same thought suddenly arose in the minds of the two fake children.
Could it be that all this was within Yuu Hoshimiya's expectation?
Ai accepted this guess quickly; after all, she had personally experienced magical magic.
Instead, Conan didn't want to believe it in his heart, but the result deduced was like this, falling into self-doubt.
However, no one present cared about Conan's entanglement.
Seeing Conan and Ai failed to take photos of ten years later, Genta and Mitsuhiko both looked disappointed.
"What the heck; why suddenly not working."
"Still wanted to see what Conan looks like; maybe the worst looking among us three boys!"
Talking and talking, the two laughed; Conan wiping fine sweat couldn't help rolling his eyes at these two.
Just then, Secretary Sawaguchi answered a phone call and said: "Mr. Hoshimiya, the chairman has finished the meeting. She invites everyone to go up to the banquet hall on the 75th floor together. Everyone, please follow me."
After getting along for a while, Chinami Sawaguchi also knew that except for Kogoro Mouri who left early, the group basically centered on Yuu Hoshimiya.
The group followed Secretary Sawaguchi towards the outdoor elevator.
This was a VIP exclusive elevator; even the elevator frame was golden, allowing enjoyment of this beautiful open scenery while ascending.
Ran asked: "Miss Sawaguchi, can this lead directly to the banquet hall on the 75th floor?"
Chinami Sawaguchi nodded, "Yes, this is a VIP elevator, can reach all floors, but to ride it, it can only be opened at the concert hall on the 66th floor and the lobby on the first floor."
The three children all looked amazed; Ayumi exclaimed even more:
"Wow, simply like a stairway to heaven."
Soon, this outdoor elevator arrived at the banquet hall on the 75th floor.
There were still staff constructing inside. Secretary Sawaguchi said: "Because preparing for the opening banquet later, it will be messy; please don't mind."
At this time, a female voice sounded, "Miss Suzuki."
A woman dressed extremely gorgeously walked up quickly; it was Mio Tokiwa, the head of Tokiwa Group.
She wore a big red women's suit, dyed blonde hair tied up, full of heroic spirit, looking at Yuu Hoshimiya with eyes full of joy.
"Chairman Tokiwa, hello."
When socializing was needed, Sonoko's etiquette was naturally flawless.
After simple greetings, she introduced Yuu Hoshimiya to Mio Tokiwa.
Although not stating the relationship between the two clearly, Mio Tokiwa, with both glamour and heroism, worthy of being the head of Tokiwa Group, keenly understood that Yuu Hoshimiya was the object to be focused on respecting today.
"Mr. Hoshimiya, hello. Although this is our first meeting today, I've heard of your name for a long time."
Mio Tokiwa reached out to shake hands with Yuu Hoshimiya, socializing skillfully.
She wasn't purely flattering. As the chairman of Tokiwa Group, paying attention to current affairs news was her daily activity. Even if having no time to read personally, she would have people organize key points and report up.
Some time ago, Yuu Hoshimiya frequently appeared on Japanese official media news; she indeed had such an impression in her mind.
Yuu Hoshimiya also took over the responsibility of socializing naturally, making Sonoko, who was depressed because of the photo ten years later, slightly more relaxed.
Just as Sonoko looked at Ai's natural curls, thinking about changing hairstyle, Yuu Hoshimiya had already gotten to know Mio Tokiwa initially and introduced people around him roughly.
After listening to Yuu Hoshimiya's introduction, Mio Tokiwa also introduced the people beside her.
The white-haired old man wearing a kimono was Mio Tokiwa's painting teacher and also a Japanese traditional painting master, Hosui Kisaragi!
His paintings of Mount Fuji could be called a unique skill in Japan; paintings often sold for high prices.
And the bald man wearing a suit, smelling of alcohol and impolite, was the councilor of Nishitama City, Iwamatsu Oki!
There was also a middle-aged man with a square face, the architect of this Twin Tower Skyscraper, Hidehiko Kazama!
Hidehiko Kazama looked at Yuu Hoshimiya with a gaze seemingly containing an inexplicable hostility, "Mr. Hoshimiya, speaking of which, I have some connection with you. Actually, I am Teiji Moriya's disciple."
Hearing this, Yuu Hoshimiya raised his eyebrows.
There weren't many reports about him in the Teiji Moriya incident back then, but relevant people could still know some if inquiring intentionally.
Didn't expect Teiji Moriya had a disciple...
To be honest, if this person didn't say it actively, Yuu Hoshimiya wouldn't recall it.
Towards people about to die, Yuu Hoshimiya was always very tolerant.
He didn't mind Hidehiko Kazama's hostility at all, chuckling: "Back then I was just forced to dismantle the last bomb. If you want to seek justice for your master, you should go to the famous detective Kogoro Mouri who deduced the truth."
"By the way, Uncle Mouri came today too, just don't know where he wandered off to. I can make a call for you if needed."
"I was wondering why I didn't see Senior Mouri; thought he didn't come."
At this time, Mio Tokiwa interjected: "Sawaguchi, trouble you to look for him again."
Hearing Mio Tokiwa call Kogoro Mouri senior, and thinking of the attitude of the future heir of the Suzuki family towards Yuu Hoshimiya, Hidehiko Kazama changed his face instantly.
The hostility in his eyes turned into a smile, "Mr. Hoshimiya is joking. I'm not as paranoid as teacher, doing things like blowing up my own buildings; this is simply an insult to the dignity of being an architect."
Yuu Hoshimiya nodded, "That would be best."
At this time, Mitsuhiko in front of the floor-to-ceiling window on the left greeted others.
"So amazing; come and look quickly!"
Genta and Ayumi both trotted over; everyone's gaze also turned over. Through the floor-to-ceiling window, the whole view of Mount Fuji could be seen.
'Jade fan hanging upside down in the East Sea sky, Fuji white snow reflecting the morning sun' refers to this Japanese holy peak.
Looking at this Mount Fuji from a height of 75 floors, all beautiful scenery in sight, indeed breathtaking.
"So beautiful; like a big ice cream."
"Genta, why are you always thinking about eating."
"Let's go see what's in the window on the other side!"
Soon, the three children ran from the floor-to-ceiling window on the left to the one on the right, lying on the glass window looking at things outside.
Ayumi asked puzzledly: "What is this thing looking like a dome?"
Others, led by Mio Tokiwa, also walked to the glass floor-to-ceiling window on the right.
Mio Tokiwa introduced: "Building B is a commercial building; below is a shopping mall, above is a hotel. There is an indoor swimming pool on the top floor, but it can also become open-air; the dome above can be operated to open."
Limited by terrain, Building B of this Twin Tower Building was naturally not as high as Building A, and floors were fewer.
Seeming to show off her achievements to everyone, Mio Tokiwa's introduction tone also carried a bit of joy.
At this time, Iwamatsu Oki, smelling of alcohol, walked up and said directly: "Mio, can I stay in this hotel these few days?"
Mio Tokiwa frowned: "But the building hasn't opened yet!"
Iwamatsu Oki's expression instantly became unhappy, "So that means no."
Seeing his expression, Mio Tokiwa lowered her head immediately. As a chaebol head, she had long become very tactful and wouldn't anger others easily.
"I understand; will prepare the suite on the 67th floor for you right away."
Only then did Iwamatsu Oki nod with satisfaction, turning and walking away with hands behind his back.
Mio Tokiwa explained softly to everyone beside her: "This Twin Tower Building being built is also thanks to Councilor Oki running around."
Tokiwa Group focused on electronics and game industries, but hadn't developed yet; family connections weren't great either, naturally having to look at politicians' faces.
If replaced by Suzuki Group which could influence the general election to a certain extent, let alone city councilors, even Diet members wouldn't dare to meet drunk, let alone dare to have this attitude.
Mio Tokiwa wanted to say a few more words, but at this time, the national painting master Hosui Kisaragi wearing a kimono shouted sternly: "Alright, Mio, I'm going back."
Hosui Kisaragi walked towards the outdoor elevator. Mio Tokiwa trotted to catch up hurriedly: "Teacher, let me see you off!"
"No need!"
Ran on the side couldn't help saying, "That old man looks very bad-tempered."
Architect Hidehiko Kazama chuckled and explained: "Heard that Mio often buys Teacher Kisaragi's paintings everywhere, then sells them at high prices to exchange for money to invest in this skyscraper."
"Don't know what she's after; she contacted me more than ten years ago, determined to build this building. Now, finally succeeded."
Hearing this, Yuu Hoshimiya frowned slightly.
Even as a chaebol head, the chaebol's main business was in computer software and game fields.
Even if the head decided to inject capital into the real estate field, the risk was too great; shareholders naturally wouldn't support, and help obtained was very limited.
So Mio Tokiwa had to find new supporters and funding sources, that is, Iwamatsu Oki, the city councilor of Nishitama City.
Iwamatsu Oki's attitude now was probably because he failed to get intimate, discovering he was deceived by Mio Tokiwa, so deliberately looking for trouble.
Regarding whether Mio Tokiwa was still a virgin, Yuu Hoshimiya secretly used magic to investigate at the first moment of meeting.
At this time, software designer Yoshiaki Hara took out chocolate from his pocket to eat. Greedy Genta said immediately: "Wow, it's chocolate!"
Yoshiaki Hara smiled and squatted down, "Oops, seen by you; then treat you to some."
He distributed chocolate to the three children; the three children laughed with satisfaction immediately.
Sending off Hosui Kisaragi, Mio Tokiwa returned to Yuu Hoshimiya's side. Seeing this scene, she chuckled and said: "Although he is a genius program designer, he also has a very childish side."
Yuu Hoshimiya said: "That's why he can create so many interesting software."
Mio Tokiwa turned to look at Yuu Hoshimiya and said: "Everyone, really sorry; I have too many things to deal with today, can't entertain you well."
"However, I opened a suite for you on the 68th floor; you can go there to rest for a while. I have instructed well; you can use all facilities of these two buildings to your heart's content."
Yuu Hoshimiya and his group took the indoor elevator to the 68th floor. Ayumi said on the side: "Brother Star, just now that Uncle Hara also invited us to help him test new games tomorrow."
"Then you have to help him well."
Yuu Hoshimiya said warmly; little Ayumi looked satisfied.
Arranging people to greet Kogoro Mouri, then rushing back hurriedly, Secretary Sawaguchi introduced on the side: "Chairman said all places in this Twin Tower Building are open to everyone for free. There is a French restaurant on the 60th floor of Building A; that's a chef specially invited by the chairman from France. Everyone can enjoy lunch there."
Hearing about food, Genta's eyes lit up.
"At the 60th floor and 45th floor, there are sky bridges connecting to Building B; can walk directly from the sky bridge. Over there is the latest game hall; except for staff, there is no one else."
Hearing this, the children's eyes lit up instantly.
"The swimming pool on the top floor of Building B is also open; inside divided into cold and warm water areas, scenery is also very good. If interested, can also go swimming there."
Sonoko got excited instantly; she pulled Ran's arm, "Ran, let's go swimming later!"
Such complete facilities, such appropriate arrangements, everyone was very satisfied.
Soon, the elevator arrived at the 68th floor.
Even the corridor decoration was very magnificent.
Secretary Sawaguchi introduced: "The decoration of this floor is the same as the five-star presidential suite, very exquisite. This is the room the chairman specially reserved for Miss Sonoko; Councilor Oki was only opened a VIP suite below for him."
Yuu Hoshimiya nodded with satisfaction, "Thank Chairman Tokiwa for her kindness for me."
Secretary Sawaguchi took everyone into Room 6801. Sure enough, worthy of being a presidential suite, completely meeting everyone's expectations.
Especially in the master bedroom, Mount Fuji could be seen as soon as getting up in the morning, very beautiful.
After everyone visited the presidential suite, in the living room, the children soon made noise.
Genta shouted repeatedly, "I want to go to the 60th floor to eat a big meal, eat a big meal."
Mitsuhiko looked at Genta disdainfully.
"What's interesting about eating a big meal; Professor, go to the game hall in Building B to play games with me."
Professor Agasa, who was childlike at heart, agreed quickly.
Ayumi looked up at Yuu Hoshimiya, "Brother Star, you go to the game hall with us too!"
Yuu Hoshimiya was about to nod and agree, but Ai pulled his body secretly.
He understood Ai's meaning instantly, immediately saying softly: "No can do; Ai is not feeling well. You go play; I have to take care of Ai here."
Ayumi looked disappointed immediately.
Ran on the side wanted to say something, but was hugged by the arm by Sonoko with an excited face.
"Ran, let's go to the swimming pool in Building B; taking advantage of no one now, similar to booking the whole place, let's swim to our heart's content."
Secretary Sawaguchi also said: "In that case, we have swimsuits to provide."
Sonoko laughed heartily, "That's great; let's go."
Soon, except for Yuu Hoshimiya and fake loli Ai, everyone in this presidential suite proceeded to their respective destinations one by one.
Genta was going to the 60th floor to eat a big meal. Conan worried he would have problems alone, so actively said to accompany him.
Professor Agasa took Mitsuhiko and Ayumi to the game hall in Building B.
And Ran and Sonoko, accompanied by Secretary Sawaguchi, went to swim in the swimming pool on the top floor of Building B.
Everyone soon arrived at the 60th floor. Conan and Genta went towards the French restaurant.
Others walked across the sky bridge and separated again; one group went up to the swimming pool, one group went down to the game hall.
In the group going down, little loli Ayumi lowered her head, unknown what she was thinking in her heart.
Suddenly, Ayumi stopped and said hurriedly: "Professor, I won't go to the game hall with you; I'm going to find Sister Ran and others to swim."
After speaking, Ayumi moved her short legs, running towards the way she came.
Mitsuhiko looked disappointed immediately.
And in the presidential suite on the 68th floor, Yuu Hoshimiya sitting on the bed had a bitter face, feeling bored looking at the picturesque scenery outside the window.
