Chapter 10 third chapter

The three people who were reported just now did not notice the tense atmosphere in the living room, nor did they notice the existence of Yasuko Kawasaki. "Mr. Robinson! Ma'am! I'm sorry for being late. This gentleman was at our house just as we were getting up." Tetsuya Fujimoto shook Robinson's hand and said: "Let me introduce. This is the composer Mr. Seiichi Ide, an old friend of Tamiko...I brought him here because I couldn't let people shut me down. Is it convenient?" It seems that Fujimoto Tetsu has also been quite drunk. He is bright, energetic, and in a good mood.

"Ah, that's very welcome." Robinson smiled and shook Seiichi Ide's hand: "This is my love, Margaret." Then Robinson translated Fujimoto's words to his lovely wife. "Madam, the uninvited guest took the liberty to bother you, did he cause you trouble?!" When her husband finished translating, Makaret said in Japanese: "It doesn't matter." Then he added in English that he was very pleased with his presence. While her husband was introducing friends to the Robinsons, Tamiko looked around the living room and greeted people she knew.However, when her eyes met Yasuko Kawasaki who was standing by the opposite window, she staggered back a few steps as if she had been hit by something.

The people in the living room must have been waiting for such a moment. Curiosity and uncontrollable tension made them widen their eyes and kept looking at the pair of women.The stuffy air filled the living room, making it almost impossible to breathe. With an unpredictable smile on Kawasaki Yasuko's face, she nodded to Tamiko and Fujimoto who was standing beside Tamiko. At this moment, Tamiko, who was staggering back, had already stood firm. A flash of lightning seemed to flash across the face that had lost all color and turned pale just now, and a red light suddenly appeared, and a strange light flashed in her eyes.The gaze was bold, fearless, and looked like the eyes of a wild animal.In response to Yasuko's hesitant greeting, Tamiko nodded proudly, then turned her head away dismissively.

However, when she found the embarrassed look on the faces of the Robinson couple beside her, she resumed her charming smile: "Thank you very much for your hospitality this evening, madam. I am very sorry to think of our parting." When Robinson conveyed Tamiko's words to Margaret, she thanked Tamiko through her husband and said that they would definitely come to Japan again, and please continue to take care of them at that time. "Really, Mr. Robinson, you must come back again! We are destined to be neighbors, but we are suddenly separated before we get along. It really makes people feel reluctant."

At this time, a small Japanese man in a bright Hawaiian shirt staggered drunkenly to Tamiko: "Ma'am! Ma'am!" The drunk man sprayed alcohol on Tamiko's face: "Hey! This old-fashioned talk is enough, come here quickly, everyone is waiting for you." "Oh! It's Mr. Ernst and Young!" Tamiko smiled and shied away, but the other party refused to say anything, grabbed Tamiko's hand, and pulled her into a group of foreigners.It seems that Tamiko is very popular among foreigners. Kosuke Kindaichi is also very familiar with Ratomiko.When Kosuke Kindaichi was young, he wandered in the western United States for three years. At that time, he was helped by this man, Jack Ernst and Young, who had played Japanese chefs and other roles in Hollywood movies.

Later, when the Japanese film industry was booming, Ernst & Young was hired by a Japanese film studio to return to China as a director.That period was probably the most proud period in his life. However, as a Japanese director, he is clearly unqualified.Because he went to the United States when he was five or six years old and never came back, it seems that he lacks Japanese inspiration.Although he is proficient in mechanical technology, his directing skills are full of foreign flavor, so after making one or two films, he became unknown. Kindaichi Kosuke came back earlier than Ernst & Young. When Ernst & Young returned to China, Kindaichi Kosuke once went to congratulate him on his success.Since that meeting, the two have never been in contact with each other, and there is no communication between them.However, when Kindaichi Kosuke moved to Green Hill not long ago, he found Jack.EY lives here.Jack lives in the former garage of the rich merchant who let the living room out tonight, and there is a painted wooden sign nailed to the garage door, which reads:

Kosuke Kindaichi didn't know what Ernst & Young was doing now, because he didn't ask, and Jack didn't say anything, but it seemed to be a temporary occupation for foreigners. In short, Ernst and Young has no wife and children, and his whereabouts are uncertain. This is just like Jin Tianyi.But for some reason, Ernst & Young has a strange feeling.Ernst & Young was also the one who introduced Kindaichi to the Robinsons. "Mr. Kindaichi! Mr. Kindaichi!" EY has hoarfrost, but wears a bright red Hawaiian shirt.At this moment, he seemed to suddenly remember something and yelled loudly. The sharp scream unique to a drunk attracted the attention of all the guests in the living room.

"Don't hide in the corner like a cat, come here! I'll introduce you to a beauty." Kosuke Kindaichi stood up with a helpless wry smile, his figure shining brightly in the living room.Although he brushed his unkempt hair tonight, it wasn't shiny.He wears a white cloth with black pattern on top, a summer hakama on the bottom, and white summer socks on his feet.Although he was still wearing a short coat when he came, he took it off and put it aside because it was too stuffy in the humid living room. "Mr. An Yong, what's the matter..." "Ah, let me introduce you."

Jack stood up suddenly: "This is Tamiko, the wife of the novelist Tetsuya Fujimoto over there, isn't she beautiful, Tamiko! This is Mr. Kosuke Kindaichi, a famous private detective, and an old friend of mine when I lived in the United States. Hahahaha..." Jack Ernst's face was already wrinkled, and the wrinkles on his face appeared even more after he was drunk.But as he spoke, he laughed meaninglessly.About Jack's age.No one knows.Needless to say others, even Jack himself didn't know.When asked where his household registration is, he also pretended to be deaf and dumb and said he didn't know.

Upon hearing the words "private detective", Tamiko secretly took a deep breath. When Kosuke Kindaichi realized that people in the living room were looking at him.His face turned red with embarrassment.
