"It's Miwako?"
"What a rare visitor."
2nd floor of Yizhu, 3 PM.
Izuki Karuda met Sato Miwako, who had come to his door on her own initiative.
After dropping Aoko off at home in the morning, Izuki Shizuta rushed back to Mihana to continue operating and earning her usual amount of evil energy.
I was thinking of taking advantage of my free time in the afternoon to pick up some things and, incidentally, cause some trouble for Kaito Kuroba.
Unexpectedly, Sato Miwako showed up at the door at this time.
"What brings you here today?"
Izuki Karuta asked the question.
Since winning the bet and helping the unfortunate couple, Sato Miwako honored her bet and paid the 500,000 yen in business fees the next day.
However, because of that bet, the atmosphere between the two became somewhat awkward.
After that, Izuki Karuta was busy with various things, and Sato Miwako was also busy with work, so the two did not have the opportunity to meet or interact, nor did they speak on the phone.
Sato Miwako's sudden visit is a clear indication that she doesn't come without a reason.
"Yi Zhu, I heard that besides the obvious transshipment business, you also..."
"Are you sure you'll be taking on other projects as well?"
Sato Miwako sat up straight and asked the question earnestly.
Izuki Karita nodded.
He added, "You can make any kind of request you like."
"Whether I answer or not is my business."
"If the reward is attractive enough, I'm more likely to accept the commission."
Miwako Sato nodded, indicating that she understood.
He immediately said, "What I want to ask you to do is to investigate a robbery case from eighteen years ago."
"As for the compensation..."
"If you can really do it, I will provide 500 million yen."
It's equivalent to spending 500 million yen to ask Karuda Itake to help investigate an old case.
"An 18-year-old cold case..."
"It feels like it will take a lot of time..."
Izuki Karita frowned slightly.
A reward of 500 million yen for solving a case is quite generous.
However, due to the passage of time, it may not be possible to identify the relevant parties.
And it's a robbery case, so who knows if the robbers are still alive? Maybe they've already absconded overseas with the money.
Izuki Karuta now earns 1500 million yen a day just from meeting with clients.
The deposits in their bank accounts are almost over 10 billion yuan.
He is not short of money at all.
This commission is completely unattractive.
"Miwako, I think about solving cases like this..."
"You'd be more likely to succeed if you went to a detective."
"Their fees aren't that high, and they might even help you for free."
Izuki Karuta tried to phrase her words as tactfully as possible.
She was preparing to introduce Miwako Sato to Kogoro Mouri... which was actually Conan.
Given Conan's obsessive personality as a deduction enthusiast, he would actively help solve cases even without paying a single penny, as long as they were told.
But what Sato Miwako said next...
This made Izuki Karuta swallow all the unspoken words.
"But I don't have 500 million right now."
"If you could do that..."
Sato Miwako looked down at the tatami mat, blushing slightly. "I will pay back my debts slowly in my own way."
Chapter 186 Ayumi: Kissing in the car?
"Miwako, are you joking?"
"Just for a robbery case from 18 years ago?"
“500 million yen is a lot, but with your salary, you can afford it.”
Izuki Karuta didn't believe a word Sato Miwako had said.
"not kidding."
"Because my father died in a case 18 years ago."
Sato Miwako looked up, her face slightly flushed. "I know, 500 million yen isn't attractive to you."
"The meaning has been made clear."
"Yi Zhu, just tell me whether you'll accept this commission or not."
Miwako Sato still didn't dare to look directly into Karuichi Itake's eyes.
Ever since losing the bet and being forced to comply, Sato Miwako has been constantly thinking about Izuki Karuta's burning gaze, which makes her feel flustered and confused.
If she hadn't recently received an important mission, Sato Miwako wouldn't have dared to come over on her own initiative.
It was also noted that after that, Izuki Karuta changed how he addressed her, calling her Miwako in private.
Sato Miwako felt she could simply call this man, who saw right through her, Izuku.
"Since you're serious..."
"Faced with such a generous reward."
"I have no reason to refuse."
Itake Karuta accepted the commission and asked Sato Miwako to explain the details of the case.
If we can successfully resolve that old case...
Even if Sato Miwako wanted to back out, Izuki Karuta wouldn't give her the chance.
"Let me take you to the scene from 18 years ago."
Sato Miwako met Izuki Karuta's gaze, her heart skipped a beat, and she quickly got up and left.
The way he looked at her just now, it felt like Izuki Qingtian wanted to devour her.
Miwako Sato's heart beat faster involuntarily.
Afterwards, Itake Karuta got into the car with Sato Miwako.
Sitting in the passenger seat of a red Mazda sedan, he silently enhanced his mental strength.
A few minutes later, a sudden chill swept over us.
Izuki Karuta turned her head and glanced at Sato Miwako.
Today's weather is late autumn, definitely not hot.
She actually turned on the car's air conditioning.
"that……"
"Izuki Karuta, you're so rich."
"Why haven't you bought a car yet?"
Sato Miwako suddenly spoke up, pretending not to see Izuki Karuta's questioning gaze.
Of course she knew it was strange to suddenly turn on the air conditioner.
But there was nothing she could do. Being alone with Izuki Qingtian in such a small space, her face inexplicably began to burn.
Especially when I think about that mission, gaining Izuki Karuta's trust, and the inevitable situation he'll face...
"No reason."
"I'm just too lazy to drive."
"Besides, my assistant also has a car."
As Izuki Karuta spoke, she preemptively said, "Miwako, you don't need to be too nervous."
"Even if we accept the case, it is still an old case from 18 years ago."
