Chapter 162: Saw the charcoal head.
“Sharon and I are both among the top five in the organization. We’ll know in advance if there are any major missions announced, so don’t worry too much.”
"Then I'll trouble you and Sharon," Yukiko said gratefully.
Su Xingbo waved his hand and laughed, "You called her the wrong name. You should call her 'sister.' Don't be fooled by her appearance and skin, which make her look like she's 18. In fact, she's older than Pengzi and is the real eldest sister among all of you."
"Huh?" Yukiko's cherry-like lips parted slightly, not expecting such a thing to happen.
They were both students of Kuroba Toichi, learning the art of disguise. Yukiko thought they were about the same age, but it turned out that Yukiko was actually older than Suzuki Tomoko, which was a bit outrageous.
Yukiko once said, "I like Sharon the most." After Sharon "passed away," Yukiko even attended her funeral.
Looking back now, she was such a silly girl.
How do you know so much about this?
Su Xingbo shook his head and laughed, "Sharon is a well-known figure in the organization. I know it's not normal for her to look like this now."
“That’s true.” Yukiko nodded, and then she fell into a deep sleep.
Seeing this, Su Xingbai laid her down so she could rest comfortably in his arms. After doing all that, he also fell asleep.
After an unknown amount of time, Yukiko woke up first. Seeing that she was still in Su Xingbai's arms, her face flushed slightly. She gently moved her body and looked at Su Xingbai, who was still fast asleep.
This little rascal is incredibly skilled, especially in that area; his abilities are even more impressive than when we first met a year ago.
As Yukiko was thinking, Su Xingbai slowly opened his eyes. Seeing Yukiko's slightly flushed face, he couldn't help but tease her, "Were you peeking at me just now? Your face is all red."
Yukiko snorted and said, "Who's looking at you? You're so narcissistic."
Just then, Su Xingbai's phone vibrated. He glanced at the caller ID and his expression turned serious.
After the call was connected, a voice came from the other end.
"Sungpak-kun, are you busy?"
"Ah~ Of course I'm not busy. Is there anything I can help you with?" Su Xingbo replied happily.
"Hehe, Dad's college classmate invited him to a casual meal. Do you want to come along?" Xiaolan giggled on the other end of the line.
"Where are you now?" Su Xingbai asked hurriedly.
Xiaolan glanced at the empty room behind her. "I'll wait for Dad to come home, and then we'll go together."
"Wait for me, I'll drive to pick you two up," Su Xingbo instructed.
"Okay~" came Xiaolan's sweet voice from the other end of the phone.
After hanging up the phone, Yukiko asked I, "Are you coming home for dinner tonight?"
"We'll see. If I'm coming back, I'll call ahead. You don't need to prepare any meals for me. You can eat and drink as you please. I might be back very late," Su Xingbai replied.
After saying that, Su Xingbo got up and dressed with Yukiko's help.
Indeed, this kind of gentle embrace is truly intoxicating.
He then greeted the women, told them he was going out, and drove off.
It's a bit of a distance from here to Beika Town; it took almost an hour and a half to drive to the Mouri Detective Agency.
Oops.
A coffee shop called Bailuo had opened downstairs, and a dark-skinned man inside caught his attention. After parking his car, he went to the coffee shop entrance.
Push the door open and enter.
"Welcome to Bailuo Cafe. What would you like?" Enomoto Azusa asked with a smile, looking down at her.
"Xiao Zi, how's business lately?"
Enomoto Azusa looked up and said with surprise, "Oh, it's Hoshino-kun! It's been so long since you've visited our Hakuro Cafe!"
Su Xingbai also glanced at her in surprise. He didn't expect that she would remember him so well after he had only come twice. Her memory was really too good.
It's possible that she ran into Kogoro Mouri when she came here last time, which left a deep impression on her.
"I didn't expect you to remember me, your old customer," Su Xingbai said with a sigh.
Enomoto Azusa covered her mouth and chuckled softly, "That's for sure. After all, not everyone can be as dashing and handsome as Hoshibashi-kun."
"Thanks for the compliment."
At this moment, the charcoal-faced man walked over.
Is this gentleman also a regular customer of ours?
Su Xingbai gave him a deep look. "I would love to come every day, but business is just too big right now, and I simply can't find the time to come."
Bourbon gave a disdainful smile. Although he concealed it very well and it was only a fleeting glance, Su Xingbai still noticed it precisely.
Sure enough, this is the arrogance of a police officer; it's normal for people to look down on him.
"Yes, that full-touchscreen phone on the market was designed by Xingbai Jun. He's the chief designer, chief engineer, and chairman of the board. He's truly a young and accomplished man," Enomoto Azusa praised, clapping her hands.
Su Xingbo waved his hand and smiled, without saying much. Keeping a low profile has always been his consistent principle.
Bourbon only started to take him seriously at this point, because the phone he was using now was also a full touchscreen phone, with functions that were far superior to his previous phone, making them incomparable, and the entertainment value was greatly increased.
"I didn't expect this gentleman's business to be so big. No wonder he doesn't have time to come over for a cup of coffee. He's probably already working on his next new phone, isn't he?" Bourbon tried to get some information out of him.
Su Xingbo stated frankly, "I have no plans to research new mobile phones for the time being. It would take domestic and foreign competitors years to catch up with my current pace, so I don't have any creative or innovative ideas for the time being."
Anyway, that's what he really thinks. All the researchers in the company are currently researching other things, like small games and software, which they are quite capable of.
"As expected of the most amazing man in Japan, he's truly captivating." Bourbon said with a wistful expression.
When Su Xingbo saw his expression, he knew that he didn't believe what he had just said. But if he didn't believe him, so be it. He wasn't asking him to believe him.
Honestly, it's normal that nobody believes it.
"Not at all, you flatter me. By the way, Xiao Zi, has Uncle Kogoro Mouri been coming to the coffee shop often lately?" Su Xingbai said politely.
After thinking for a moment, Enomoto Azusa shook her head and smiled, "No, not at all. Although Detective Mouri isn't as busy as you, he still takes on a lot of cases and rarely comes here."
