Being in Detective Conan, being officially part of the organization is just too awesome!

Chapter 644 Lin Jiayou: I made a lot of money for free today...

"master....................."

Shimabukuro Kimie listened to Hayashi Chia-yu's well-intentioned and cautionary advice, and was deeply moved.

As expected, my master is still the closest person to me in the organization...................

She silently kept Lin Jiayou's words in mind.

Yes, when faced with a request from someone close and trusted like her master, she would do her best to help. Shimabukuro Kimie remembered this well…

"Okay, I'll hang up if there's nothing else."

Lin Jiayou sensed that his little apprentice, Shimabukuro Kimie, was about to get into her usual sentimental mood again, so he quickly interrupted her.

"I still need to make breakfast for Sherry. You can continue working at the office too..."

I need to make breakfast too?!

As Shimabukuro Kimie listened to Lin Jiayou's words, she accurately grasped the key words.

A feeling of envy unexpectedly rose within her at that moment.......................

Why should someone as outstanding as my master have to make breakfast for Shirley? She wants to too...

Shimabukuro Kimie quickly shook her head, snapping out of her daze.

No, she didn't want to at all...

"That, that,"

Kimie Shimabukuro seemed reluctant to hang up, and continued speaking hesitantly.

"Let me tell you about these letters again."

"It wouldn't be good if, for some reason, you missed out on some of the invitations you wanted to attend..."

"........................"

Lin Jiayou was speechless.

Honestly, I told this girl not to worry about it.

Is she worried that afterwards, she'll find out which invitations she wanted to attend but couldn't, and then the problem will fall on her?

Am I the kind of master who likes to shift blame...?

"Fine, go ahead and tell me."

Lin Jiayou placed his phone on the table to the side and turned on speakerphone.

He then continued making breakfast while talking to Kimie Shimabukuro.

Give your little apprentice a sense of security, lest the kid overthink things...

"Alright, Master!"

Kimie Shimabukuro nodded emphatically.

Then, she took the letters she had brought out of the mailbox and began to read them to Lin Jiayou one by one.

Logically speaking, some things have been going on for quite a while, so there's no need to read them to the master anymore, since reading them wouldn't be of much use.

but.....................

For some reason, as soon as Shimabukuro Kimie had this thought, an idea immediately came to mind—

How can I know which day has passed and which day has yet to come?

Although it felt a little strange, Kimie Shimabukuro didn't think anything was wrong.

So she read those twenty-odd letters aloud to Lin Jiayou one by one.

"The first one was sent on December 28th, inviting you, Master, to have dinner at the Takeda family's residence at Puppet Ridge in Tottori Prefecture on January 32nd..."

"Huh?! This letter also came with 500,000 yen!"

After her initial surprise, Kimie Shimabukuro looked up and asked into the phone,

"Master, should we pay attention to this letter?"

"Need not,"

Lin Jiayou continued making breakfast, too lazy to even lift her head.

Kōgyō-ryō, Tottori Prefecture, is still the home of the Takeda family...................

If he remembered correctly, this should be the case of the Spider House...

This case has already been reported in the newspapers. Kogoro Mouri and Heiji Hattori of Osaka have already solved it, so the time has long passed.

I made five hundred thousand yen for nothing.............

If every letter pays out, it seems I'll be making a lot of money for free...

"Mmmmmmm!"

Shimabukuro Kimie nodded repeatedly as she listened to Hayashi Chia-yu's words.

"Alright then, I won't send this letter."

"Oh, right, Master, I'll keep that 500,000 yen for you. I'll bring it to you next time we meet..."

"Never mind, I don't need it."

Lin Jiayou continued speaking without looking up.

“It’s not a big deal. You can keep it to pay the firm’s electricity bill.”

Because Lin Jiayou's tone was very casual, Shimabukuro Kimie didn't say much.

She continued reading the next letter...................

"The second letter is an invitation to have dinner at the Yoshii family mansion on February 29th..."

"I'm not going to this one either."

Lin Jiayou was interrupted before he could finish listening.

If he remembered correctly, Yoshii Reika was long gone, and this dinner had probably been over a long time ago...

"Oh oh oh, okay."

Kimie Shimabukuro nodded again, then continued reading the letter.

"The third letter..."

"Don't go."

"The fourth letter..."

"Don't go."

"No............."

Shimabukuro Kimie read out more than twenty letters, only to receive Lin Jiayou's cold indifference in return.

However, she showed no signs of fatigue; on the contrary, she seemed quite energetic...

I guess I've ended up working with my master this time, hehe...

It's just a little short...

"This is the last letter,"

Looking at the only remaining letter on the table, Shimabukuro Kimie spoke with some regret.

"This letter is an invitation to visit the Twilight Villa in Gunma Prefecture on April 27th..."
