Zongman: People in Conan, raising cats and mice

"How was the surprise attack?"

Compared to other girls, Suzuki Sonoko is obviously calmer. This is not because of her personality, but simply because she has seen too many things.

He is not like Mouri Ran, who doesn't care that much because she has seen so many cases. He is also not like Daidoji Tomoyo, who is too well protected and basically no incident will happen to him.

Although she is also a young lady, she is also the heir to the Suzuki Group, a super conglomerate that stands at the top of the country's conglomerates.

But because of the training path she chose since childhood, Suzuki Sonoko is actually quite outstanding in all aspects.

They can not only understand their own advantages, but also make good use of the various resources they have, and they can also understand the situation of the lower levels and will not be fooled by the people below.

When you have absolute advantage and can also reach both upper and lower levels, it will be easy to control power.

Even the eldest sister Suzuki Ayako does not have this advantage, but Suzuki Ayako's own abilities are also quite outstanding.

Although his understanding of the upper and lower levels was not as thorough as that of his younger sister, his outstanding abilities made up for it.

Even if I don't fully understand it, it can still prevent the people below from deceiving themselves.

"There is no detailed arrangement. From what we can see now, it should be an ordinary assassination, but it seems that someone behind the scenes wants to lead this assassination to the hostile forces~"

Matsumoto Akira gave a brief explanation, but seeing that the girls present didn't seem to care that much, he immediately changed the subject.

"It seems that school won't be able to go on as normal from now on. Why don't we go out and rest for a while? We can see if we can have something to eat."

"That's true. I'm a little hungry!"

Suzuki Sonoko nodded, and then looked at Shinomiya Kaguya who had been standing beside them and listening to their conversation.

"Because Miss Shinomiya, I wonder if you should go back? After all, I think your family will be worried if something like this happens, right?"

"No, I have something very important to ask Matsumoto-san. I wonder if I can go with you guys!"

Taking a deep breath, Kaguya Shinomiya looked at the few people very seriously and pleaded.

This was a tone she had never used before, a plea. Even when facing a super consortium like the Suzuki Group that was far more powerful than them, it would not go to this extent.

Even though the Sigong family is now in dire straits, just like the Jia family on the eve of its collapse, it is only prosperous on the surface and is actually on the verge of collapse. But after all, hasn't it not fallen yet?

Suzuki Sonoko was stunned for a moment, then as if she remembered something, she glanced at Matsumoto Akira and turned to look at Mouri Ran.

"There's no problem on my end, what do you think, Xiaolan?"

When Mao Lilan heard her best friend asking the question, she was a little confused. Why was she suddenly asked about this? Normally, the people around her would make the decision, right?

Although she was a little confused, Mao Lilan still nodded. She was not that unkind.

After all, right now, Kaguya Shinomiya seems to need some help, but it is just not convenient to say it here.

Mao Lilan is not the kind of person who would be kind for no reason, but she is not the kind of person who would reject others without listening.

If it's not a request that's just for no reason, Mao Lilan is generally willing to listen and think about it.

The group arrived outside the school, but did not choose to have a meal directly, after all, it was not yet noon.

I just wanted to eat something to fill my stomach and calm myself down because of the psychological fluctuations caused by this sudden attack.

Shinomiya Kaguya also paid attention to the atmosphere, and waited until everyone had temporarily filled their stomachs before finally speaking slowly.

"Matsumoto-san, I would like to ask if you can help me get out of my current predicament in the family!"

Matsumoto Akira was not surprised, as he could get a rough idea of ​​the other party's actual situation from previous anime.

What Matsumoto Akira didn't expect was that the other party would actually choose to ask him for help. Normally, shouldn't his target be Shirogane Miyuki?

Even if there was no Shirogane Yuxing, the Shijo Emperor was still a talented young man.

To be honest, compared to the protagonist Shirogane Miyuki, it is indeed easier for the Shijo Tei to liberate Kaguya Shinomiya.

After all, the gap between Baiyin Yuxing and the others is too huge. He was born in a poor family. Even before his family went bankrupt, it was impossible to compare him with the Shinomiya family.

Not to mention now, even though he has shown considerable ability in studying.

But it was like he was a chosen worker, and he did not show his talent in business.

It did not make the head of the Shinomiya family think of taking him in as a son-in-law, or simply letting his daughter marry him.

If you are not strong yourself and are unable to gain the other person's admiration, then forget about the possibility of being together.

Of course, you can still play.

If you really have feelings for each other, then you have to cut it off right there and then. After all, even if it's a marriage of convenience, your past feelings still need to be traced back.

But Shijo Tei is different. He has dealt with Shinomiya Kaguya when she was a child and is willing to make efforts to save her.

Later, he showed his talent while working overseas with the Shijo family. The current Shijo family is not as good as the former main family in terms of foundation except that they just came back from overseas.

What exactly is it about the former main family, the Shinomiya family, that can compare to the Shijo family?

Even the former allies of the Shinomiya family have seen the clues. Although they have not yet reached the point of betrayal, they have already begun their own plans in secret.

It all depends on when the current head of the Shinomiya family dies. After all, none of the three heirs who may succeed him can achieve excellence.

The current economy is not in a stable phase, and it is not a time when you can get promoted and make money by doing anything.

If you can only maintain the status quo, then relatively speaking, you are actually falling behind.

What's more, except for the eldest brother, who received targeted education since childhood, the second and third brothers came purely for the purpose of seizing power.

The eldest brother is not talented, but because of the education he received since childhood, his vision and ability are at least at an upper-middle level.

The second and third children are different. They are not talented and have not received the most advanced education. They rely entirely on their own exploration and advice from people around them.

His current power is totally incomparable to that of the old boss, but he is more than capable of causing trouble. It can be said that he is more likely to cause trouble than to accomplish anything.

The future of the Shinomiya family is quite worrying!

"I don't know why Miss Shigong thought of asking me to help you?"

Matsumoto Akira spoke calmly, neither saying whether he was willing nor saying that he wanted to refuse.

"Because it seems that the young ladies around you are very free! I really envy them!"

Shinomiya Kaguya had something to say. She had been taught the art of speaking, but sometimes she just didn't want to say it.

For example, now Kaguya Shinomiya feels that instead of expressing things in a roundabout way, it would be better to just be straightforward and reveal her true thoughts.

After all, the means you use and your art of speaking may very likely cause the other person to think that you simply want to take advantage of him/her.

And it was obvious that Kaguya Shinomiya was no longer being used at this time. She was simply seeking help, so she did not want to raise the possibility that this was not a very high possibility.

After Kaguya Shinomiya finished speaking, the girls present looked at each other. No one spoke directly, but they seemed to be communicating with each other through their eyes.

They seemed to be very free from the beginning to the end, so they couldn't really understand what Kaguya Shinomiya said.

It's not because they stay with Akira Matsumoto that they seem free, but because they have always been free, so they stay with Akira Matsumoto.

There is no need to say much about Busujima-chan. Busujima Kazuo is the only head of the family left, and he is the only heir.

In addition, Matsumoto Akira is the most promising disciple of Busujima Kazuo, so it is the best choice for Busujima to stay with Matsumoto Akira.

Originally, Busujima Kazuo himself was the one who cared more, but since even his own daughter had no intention of hiding it, he naturally would not insist on his own opinion.

Suzuki Sonoko's parents are quite open-minded, and Suzuki Sonoko has been with Matsumoto Akira since she was a child. Matsumoto Akira's name has long been heard by her parents.

Neither Suzuki Tomoko nor Suzuki Shiro had any objection, even though they knew that there were other girls around Matsumoto Akira, they did not have the slightest objection.

Let’s not talk about whether Matsumoto Akira’s potential is worth it for Suzuki Sonoko to do this. Her own daughter hasn’t even fully formed any ideas in that regard yet. If she tries to stop her, it might backfire.

As for Tomoyo Daidoji, as a princess who was loved and pampered since childhood, the only request of Tomoyo Daidoji's mother and elders for her was to live happily.

All we can say is that these young ladies have different living backgrounds, but generally speaking they still have a lot in common.

For example, there is little power struggle in the family, there are relatively few family members, and there is affection between each other.

It’s different with Shinomiya Kaguya. Not only do they have no family affection with each other, but they also have a lot of struggles for power.

"Is that what you think? I can certainly help you here, but what do you intend to use to get me to help you?"

Matsumoto Akira was still very calm. He had plenty of ways to solve this matter, but why did he take action for no reason? Even if it was Kaguya Shinomiya, he was not worth the price.

A carefully trained eldest daughter of a chaebol family is sometimes very valuable, but sometimes not so valuable.

Especially when there are actually many similar young ladies around Matsumoto Akira, Matsumoto Akira can completely ignore it.

"I don't know either--"

Shinomiya Kaguya shook her head. Her previous idea was just a spur-of-the-moment one, and now she had no idea what to use to make the transaction.

The atmosphere fell into silence for a moment. After a while, Kaguya Shinomiya suddenly spoke.

"If you don't mind, you can start with the Shinomiya family! I can attack some of the weak points in the family--"

"Wait! Wait! Hahahaha, Kaguya, she's just joking! Let's discuss it first, let's discuss it first!"

Fujiwara Chika, who was originally listening to Kaguya Shinomiya's words, felt a little uncomfortable and ran over to cover Kaguya Shinomiya's mouth and pushed her aside.

"Oh, what are you doing? My dear, what are you thinking?"

Fujiwara Chika, who always acts very heartless, rarely says such words.

"I am stating my conditions?"

Shinomiya Kaguya spoke very calmly. Although she was directly exposing her family's past, she did so after considerable consideration.

"No, no, no, you don't understand at all! You are so confused. If you really tell them, then if I kill your family, won't those things belong to them? Why should I help you?"

Fujiwara Chika pulled out a paper fan from somewhere and patted Shinomiya Kaguya on the head.

"Of course I know, but they have done this, so I am actually relieved, right?"

Shinomiya Kaguya said nonchalantly, even though she was indeed the eldest daughter of the Shinomiya family.

The glory brought by the Shinomiya family has indeed allowed her to live a pretty good life in all aspects. Normally speaking, she should give back to the family.

But who knows, she and her brothers do not have the same mother?

Although in reality it doesn't have much of an impact, after all, in reality, when the brothers are all fighting for power, having the same parents won't have any impact at all, after all, the mother's side is gone.

It is precisely because the people above are fighting for power that Kaguya Shinomiya, who was originally prepared to be a marriage partner, wants to protect herself.

After all, if things continue like this, who knows who his marriage partner will be?

"Is that what you think?" Fujiwara Chika looked at Shinomiya Kaguya with some surprise.

"But even if you think so, you can't do it, because it will really cause problems!"

Fujiwara Chika looked at Shinomiya Kaguya very seriously, but when she found that she was not shaken at all, she waved her hands helplessly, "Oh, forget it, I am too lazy to preach to you, you won't understand anyway!"

Sighing again, Fujiwara Chika stretched out her hands very seriously and shook Shinomiya Kaguya's shoulders.

"But it's best to show your true heart. If you simply offer your family's assets as a benefit to lure people in, you won't get any good results in the end. Think about your original purpose, Kaguya!"
