Keep busy in the world of Detective Conan

Chapter 170: New Members & Meeting Old and New Members (2)

While they were talking, Hua Lantian and Sawada Hiroki had already walked into the room and came to the sofa. Hua Lantian asked him to sit down first while he went to get him some orange juice. (Conan's favorite???)

Hua Lantian walked straight to the wall with only one door and casually turned on two unknown switches outside. Suddenly, a slight roar was heard, indicating that the air circulation system had started to work.

I subconsciously opened the door a crack and found that there was no special smell inside. It seems that asking some diligent people to clean the place in advance was the right choice...

At this moment, some hardworking people were sweeping the floor in a room with the same layout. They sneezed violently and then began to mutter to themselves,

"Damn it, I've been fooled again. Where did that person go? Didn't they tell me to sweep the floor first and they would do the rest later? I've already finished sweeping the floor and there's still no one there...!"

Hua Lantian skillfully took out the cup from the sterilizer, then walked out, came to the refrigerator, opened it, took out orange juice and ice cubes, then walked back to the sofa, put everything on the coffee table, and started working.

"Here, your orange juice...!"

"Okay, thank you, Brother Lantian...!"

Sawada Hiroki grabbed the cup and thanked Hua Lantian. Then he took two sips, shook his head, and suddenly seemed to think of something, and continued:

"So, when do we start the meeting, Brother Lantian? You asked most of our team members to gather at this secret base in Neon for a meeting this time. It must be something important...!"

Hua Lantian sat down and poured himself a glass of orange juice. He took a sip to moisten his throat, looked at the "little adult" in front of him, and said:

"Of course I am. I'm planning an operation against the organization soon. I also have a feeling that another major operation is coming soon. With more people, we can capture one of the codenamed members alive...!"

Sawada Hiroki looked at him speaking passionately over there. To be honest, he didn't see Hua Lantian showing any excitement about his future plans. He seemed to be taking things as they come, so he interrupted Hua Lantian's chatter.

"Brother Lantian, this doesn't seem very realistic to me... You don't even have a detailed plan. This is just an idea you have. And I feel like you're too lazy to do these things, as if someone else will do it for you...!"

After saying this, he stared at the silent Hua Lantian with a hint of suspicion, trying to make him reveal some flaw, to expose his nonsense and empty promises...

Hua Lantian, who is extremely thick-skinned, would not let a child reveal his thoughts and stare at him, even if he is a genius.

With a determined expression, he said something vaguely like "I'll let you know when the meeting starts." Then he pulled out something that looked like a cell phone, pressed a button, and said:

"Everyone, gather in Room 1, the innermost room. The meeting will start soon. Please be here within 15 minutes...!"

At the same time, in each of the equally large rooms with different decorations and equipment, a particularly small loudspeaker in the corner of the ceiling transmitted Hua Lantian's words exactly as they were.

Inside the room, everyone, whether typing on their computers, drawing at their drafting tables, or lying on the sofa watching TV with a broom and dustpan beside them, stopped what they were doing, tidied up, opened the door, and headed out...

After a while, at the huge conference table in the center of Room No. 1, Hua Lantian sat at the first seat, Zhu Fujing Guangze Tian Hongshu sat on the left and right, and behind them sat Asanami, Yamabe Koichi, Itakura Taku and Akiyoshi Miwako.

"Okay, let's begin the meeting. First, please introduce yourself to each other so we can assign tasks later...!"
