Chapter 248 Past Cases

Logically speaking, Ze Yu doesn't need bodyguards, because even if the strongest bodyguard team comes together, they can't beat a single finger of his.

Isn’t it a joke that a bodyguard can’t beat his employer?

If that’s the case, what’s the use of bodyguards?

Although that is what he said, Ze Yu did have bodyguards, and quite a few of them, although the role of those bodyguards was similar to that of mascots.

For example, that guy Sakai, he used to be Sawaha's bodyguard for a while, and then he was driven away by Sawaha.

And now, Sawaha has set his sights on Kyogoku Makoto.

At the very least, the tall Kyogoku Makoto looks very imposing standing behind him.

Although Sawaha did not need a bodyguard, he admired Kyogoku Makoto and had a little crush on this dull big guy, so he was willing to give Kyogoku Makoto a chance.

If Kyogoku Makoto can seize this opportunity, he can join the Fang Group and return to youth when he is old.

Ordinary people don’t have this treatment.

Ze Yu is very strict in selecting his bodyguards. Ordinary people are not qualified to be his bodyguards. Although these bodyguards are just mascots, they are also a symbol of appearance.

According to Sawaha's standards, even someone as strong as Kyogoku Makoto would only just pass.

However, even if the big guy Kyogoku Makoto really became Sawaha's bodyguard, it is very likely that after a period of time, he would be driven away by Sawaha like Sakai before.

Ze Yu would change his bodyguard every once in a while, and even Kyogoku Makoto could not stay by his side for too long.

But this is all for the rest.

Closer to home.

He was even willing to give Kyogoku Makoto, who was not very close to Sawaha, a chance, not to mention his friends.

Ze Yu really likes his friends.

He has many friends, and those who are a little older include Uncle Maori, Kuroba Toichi, Kudo Yukiko, Kisaki Eri...

Younger ones, such as Xiaolan, Sonoko, Miyano Akemi, Hattori Heiji...

There are younger ones, and everyone in the Junior Detective League, they are all friends that Ze Yu treats sincerely.

Ze Yu has selfish motives. He wants all these friends to join the Fang Group, gain a long life, and stay with him forever.

Of course, it doesn’t matter if they don’t join the organization, Ze Yu is still willing to support them.

But in that case, Ze Yu would feel very unfulfilled, and he didn't like this feeling...

Ze Yu gathered his complicated thoughts and quietly watched Kyogoku Makoto, the waiter, leave.

Huiyuan Ai said nothing and seemed a little nervous. Seeing this, Ze Yu asked curiously, "Xiao Ai, what's wrong with you?"

"That person gives me a very dangerous feeling." Huiyuan Ai said nervously in the mind link with a tense face, "Just like the feeling that the members of the Black Organization give me, but he is not that dark, so he should not be a member of the organization."

"But no matter what, he is definitely a master, and he is very powerful even within the organization." Haibara Ai gave a very high evaluation.

Just now, Kyogoku Makoto saw someone flirting with the girl he liked, so he acted very badly and even had a bit of coldness in his attitude.

Haibara Ai has always been more sensitive, so it is normal for her to be able to sense Kyogoku Makoto's coldness.

"Will it?" Conan was a little confused: "Is that person a master? Why don't I feel anything?"

"..."

Haibara Ai remained silent, not wanting to pay attention to this idiot.

At the table, Xiaolan and the others were chatting happily. Masahiko smiled and said, "...So, Sonoko, you all live in the Wawu Hotel. Isn't it near the hotel where I live?"

"In that case, let's go to that nice restaurant on the beach tonight for dinner. I'll drive over to pick you up then..."

"Is it true?" Sonoko blushed again, clenched her palms, and looked expectant.

"By the way, don't forget to bring your camera," Masahiko reminded.

"Why?" Sonoko expressed confusion.

"Because I asked the locals here, and they said that a murder had occurred on the beach near that restaurant." Masahiko's tone gradually became serious.

"Murder?" Sonoko repeated.

"Yes, it was one year ago today. A woman with long brown hair was stabbed in the abdomen with a knife and died on the ground..."

"It is said that the lady had an accident on the way to the restaurant, but the police have never been able to catch the murderer."

"So... you understand what I mean?"

Masahiko had a gloomy face and deliberately made his tone eerie, which scared Xiaolan, Sonoko and the others.

Seeing them trembling, Ze Yu suddenly interrupted and said, "Sister Sonoko, you have to be careful. You have brown hair, so you might be targeted."

"Ah?" Yuanzi widened his eyes, a look of surprise on his face, and then he became even more frightened.

She knew that Xiaoyu was right. If the murderer had not left this place, he might really target her...

Thinking of this, Sonoko fearfully hugged Xiaolan beside her, treating her like a large pillow that was as big as her body.

"Okay, Sonoko, pay attention to your image..." Xiaolan, who was entangled by the octopus, felt a little helpless. But it was not easy for her to push Sonoko away directly, so she could only persuade him in a comforting tone.

"Hey, kid, you are quite alert." Masahiko looked at Ze Yu who was sitting next to him with a smile.

"A hero who is blocked by the boss at the door but is unaware of it is not a good hero." Ze Yu glanced at him and said something incomprehensible.

But Masahiko understood what he meant. His pupils shrank instantly, and he thought in horror: "Did this little brat see something?"

"Impossible, he's just a kid, even the police can't find out my identity..."

Masahiko denied his guess, thinking that he was scaring himself, and then heaved a sigh of relief.

Sawaha turned his gaze away from Masahiko.

He knew that he was being looked down upon again. This was the advantage of being a shota, but it could also be considered a disadvantage.

The advantage is that it can lower the enemy's vigilance, but the disadvantage is that it is very uncomfortable to be looked down upon.

Ze Yu was too lazy to pay attention to this guy who looked down on others. He had no vision at all and deserved it.

Huiyuan Ai was silent for a while, and suddenly said: "I have brown hair..."

What she meant was that she might also be in danger.

As long as the murderer is not blind, he will understand that compared to Sonoko, Haibara Ai, who is just a child, is the best target of attack.

From this point of view, Haibara Ai is just a tool to attract fire, which is very pitiful.

"Ai, your hair color should be brown, or coffee brown." Ze Yu said.

"They're all brown anyway." Haibara Ai didn't dwell too much on this topic.
