Chapter 337 The Gears of Destiny
Not to mention the inexplicable growth of a fake fan on Chrissie Wynyard’s end.
Yin Jiu has gained quite a few fans recently because of the broadcast of his previous TV series.
"Xiao Jiu, the company received these for you." Toru Amuro opened the door of Yin Jiu's villa with large and small packages of express delivery.
"Chocolate again?" Yin Jiu stepped forward, took the package from Amuro Toru, opened it, and quickly threw the thing aside with a lack of interest.
"Let's give these things to Mr. Kurosawa and Mr. Uozuka." Yin Jiu sighed, "They usually consume a lot of energy at work, so they should need them."
"Is this okay? Your fans will be sad if they find out." Amuro Toru reminded him, not that he thought there was anything wrong with giving away the leftover food.
Celebrities won't eat such high-calorie snacks, and most people, after receiving so many chocolates, would just pack the gifts together and throw them in the trash.
Although Yin Jiu didn't throw it away directly, Amuro Toru felt uncomfortable when he thought that these things would eventually benefit Gin.
"What does it matter? Mr. Kurosawa has a good reputation. He will definitely not make such a thing known to others. No one will know about it." Yin Jiu failed to realize the point that Amuro Toru was entangled. He flipped through his chocolate inventory and picked out two nice-looking ones. "Here, these two pieces look cute. I'll give them to you."
Toru Amuro: “…” He is not jealous of Gin!
The awkward middle-aged colleague became sulky and withdrawn.
Yin Jiu took out his phone and said, "Kyogoku, I haven't contacted you for a long time. Are you used to living abroad?"
Kyogoku Makoto had just finished a day's class when he received a call from Yin Jiu. After this period of time, he finally understood what kind of powerful organization the Karasuma Group was. So when he spoke to Yin Jiu, his tone was a little more cautious. "I'm used to it. What's wrong?"
"Just get used to it. Chocolate Festival is coming soon. Do you want to go back to Japan?" Yin Jiu looked at the schedule in his hand. "In two days, Yuanzi and the others will go to Fukito Villa for vacation. You can come and give her a surprise."
"Is it okay?" Kyogoku was stunned. He received a call from Sonoko some time ago. It seemed that it was because of a case and she cried for a long time.
He had originally been thinking of finding an opportunity to take leave and return to Japan during this period, and he thought that the organization would not approve it so easily. Unexpectedly, Yin Jiu took the initiative to call and invite him.
"Why not?" Yin Jiu asked back with a smile, "You can definitely pick up more gifts and bring them back. The group will reimburse the travel expenses and gift expenses. Our benefits are still very good."
Yin Jiu's tone was matter of course. For such high-net-worth, high-potential dating combinations, the organization would always spare no effort to support them.
After all, only Kyogoku Makoto must join the organization, but if his relationship with Suzuki Sonoko is stable, then the next generation of heirs to the Suzuki Group will not be able to escape their clutches.
-
Two days later, in Kogoro Mori's car.
"I really don't understand why you have to go to such a remote place to make chocolate." Kogoro Mouri complained while driving.
"Of course it's to confess." Suzuki Sonoko covered her mouth and laughed.
"Sonoko, didn't you tell me that you chose Fukito Villa because you can see a lot of small animals here?" Mao Li Ran didn't expect Sonoko to think like this, and turned her head in confusion.
"Haven't you heard of it?" Suzuki Sonoko thought that Mao Lilan would go back to do her homework. Seeing her best friend's expression was completely confused, she couldn't help but cover her lips with one hand and lower her voice, "The reason why Fukito Villa is so famous is that if you make chocolate there, you can keep your love perfect forever..."
"So you're planning to make chocolate for Kyogoku Makoto there?" Mao Lilan immediately thought of her best friend's abnormal behavior recently. "No wonder you told me a few days ago that you wanted to know what flavor Kyogoku Makoto likes."
When it comes to this topic, Suzuki Sonoko fell silent.
"He...he hasn't contacted me recently." Suzuki Sonoko's expression was a little lonely. "I called him several times, but the answering machine was always the recording. Maybe he is really busy abroad."
"What should I do? Xiaolan, you're so strong. I thought I wouldn't be able to bear it if I didn't talk to Kyogoku Makoto for a week, but haven't you talked to Shinichi for a long time?"
"Yeah, I'm used to it anyway." Mao Lilan smiled and comforted her bestie, "And even if that guy is not here, I won't feel anything."
is it?
Yin Jiu sat next to Mao Li Ran, and felt the emotions suddenly rising from Mao Li Ran and Conan, and leaned back.
Even if she had to say such words against her will with a smile, she still had to comfort Suzuki Sonoko. In Ran Mouri's heart, Suzuki Sonoko must be a very important friend.
However, the gears of fate have shifted. As long as the relationship between Suzuki and Kyogoku continues, the two will sooner or later stand in completely opposite positions. What choice will Mouri Ran make then?
Fate is really magical, the previous generation’s Juri, Sharon, and Yukiko.
This generation’s Sonoko, Mori, and Kudo Shinichi.

"Oh, it's an old woman!"
"You, old woman, are the owner of the villa who lured those ignorant young girls to come to this desolate mountain to make chocolate and make a fortune?" Kogoro Mouri's car drove through the snow and circled the mountains several times before finding the B&B. It was obvious that he was quite resentful.
However, the old lady opposite was not to be outdone, "I am not lying. About sixteen years ago, the British countess made chocolate here and finally married into the earl's mansion."
"It was reported in the news and magazines at the time, so a lot of girls flocked to it..."
"Countess? Do you mean Yin Shuli?"
Everyone else's eyes subconsciously turned to Yin Jiu, and no one thought that Yin Shuli was involved here.
"Yeah, unfortunately this place became haunted after my husband passed away four years ago, and business has become a little quiet... huh?" The old lady said as she followed the others' gazes and recognized Yin Jiu's face the moment she saw it, "You, you, you..."
"Are you Yin Jiu? The child of those two people?" The old lady stepped forward to confirm with some excitement and trembling.
At the moment when Yin Jiu nodded, he suddenly saw that the name representing the old lady in the captive list, 'Yuasa Chiyoko', suddenly rose a lot.
"It's really you! The business over the years is thanks to your parents' care." The old lady looked at Yin Jiu with a loving gaze, then she took a step back, opened the door, and took the initiative to welcome everyone into the villa.
. . . .
"I didn't expect your mother to have old acquaintances in places like this. This time the bill is free thanks to you." Kogoro Mouri didn't react until he walked into the inner hall.
This kind of tourist attraction is packed with people during festivals, and a room reservation will be auctioned at a sky-high price, and it is on a first-come, first-served basis.
Originally, Kogoro Mori had been prepared to be severely slaughtered early in the morning, but he did not expect such a sudden turn of events.
"I never thought my parents would do something so romantic."
After all, in Yin Jiu's mind, the marriage between Yin Shuli and Count Straus was at most a political and business marriage.
One is Macallan, a top-notch gold digger carefully trained by the Black Organization, and the other is the ugly old Deng who is suspected to be an antique vampire. These two guys don't seem like a normal relationship at all.
Well... there are quite a lot of variations!
"So, Grandma Yuasa, what's going on with the ghost wandering here after your husband passed away?" Conan only briefly learned about Yin Shuli's past and quickly focused his attention elsewhere.
