21B Baker Street
Next to Kudou's house, there is a small single-family home.
This is Li Ze's residence in this world, the address that came with the identity provided by the system reward.
Creak.
Skillfully inserting the key to open the door, Li Ze slipped on his slippers, walked into the living room, and saw Natasha, who had a curvy figure and a fair face.
"Boss, you're back," Natasha smiled and said.
Li Ze nodded and lazily sat down on the sofa.
Taking the glass of red wine handed to him by Natasha, he took a sip and said, "Everything has been arranged. How are the results now?"
Natasha smiled.
She flicked her hair and sat directly across from Li Ze.
"Don't worry, boss."
"Because you made arrangements in advance, the company has already begun to lay the groundwork, and we're just waiting for the final closing actions."
"But I don't understand."
"Boss, how did you know that Seiwa Sontoku would kill someone tonight?"
"And that Seiwa Sontoku is ill. Is it that hard for the head of a chaebol to kill someone?"
"Spend a little money to hire a killer, bribe a bankrupt person, or buy a dump truck to run him over, right?"
"In short, there are so many ways to do it. Why did you have to handle it yourself?"
"And it's in his own home, in front of many foreign guests. How did he become the head of a chaebol with such a brain?"
"Really, it's hard to understand!"
Natasha started to complain.
Yes.
Although she was a character summoned by the system, all the experiences of her previous life were retained, including all the memories of the Red House and S.H.I.E.L.D.
In her words, she had experienced the Avengers Civil War and was resting at home when she was suddenly teleported here.
Then, basic information such as "left the original world" and "loyal to Li Ze" was implanted in her mind.
Therefore, it was hard for her to understand.
The chaebol leader, Seiwa Sontoku, was acting way too recklessly, wasn't he?
Not to mention being compared to Marvel's Hydra, he couldn't even hold a candle to ordinary villains in the Marvel universe.
Uh, wait!
It's more accurate to say that normal people just wouldn't understand this kind of thinking.
It's simply sick!
As a chaebol leader, there were so many easier ways to kill Yamazaki Tetsu, but he had to do it himself...
And then.
He made it so complicated!
Doesn't he know that the more you do, the more mistakes you make?
It seemed like the plan was perfect, but everything he did left traces.
In short, hey!
Natasha just felt that the people in this world had serious issues with their thinking.
And in response to this, Li Ze shrugged.
He understood the fundamental reason in his heart. To put it bluntly, it was still a problem of world differences.
This is the detective world, where everything serves the detective.
If the criminal isn't mentally disturbed, how can the detective do his job?
Not to mention that what Seiwa Sontoku encountered was the son of the world, Kudou Shinichi!
It's normal to have your IQ lowered.
However, he didn't explain further and just smiled, saying: "This is also a good thing for us, isn't it?"
"That's right!" Natasha nodded with a smile. "It's definitely a good thing."
"Today, our company can take at least 30% of the Seiwa Group, and our company can expand at least tenfold."
"Yes, don't be surprised."
"For a small company like ours, the Seiwa Group is like an elephant!"
"Even though we've prepared in advance, taking 30% is the limit. If we go further, we'll be overwhelmed."
"More importantly, the chaebols in this world."
"In a world of hereditary succession, a small company like ours without a foundation is easily targeted by others, even now."
"So, boss."
"I advise you to go out as little as possible recently. I can protect you if you stay at home."
"Otherwise, heh."
"You could easily get hit by a dump truck when you go out, or someone might suddenly stab you with a knife!"
"As for the company, I can't do much at the moment."
"I can only hope that our company can withstand the attacks from other conglomerates, whether overt or covert."
"Of course, I suggest..."
"Boss, you might want to spend money to buy off a few congressmen or trade a share of the company's equity. Joining a large conglomerate is also a good option."
"I recommend the Suzuki conglomerate. After all, you and Miss Suzuki have a good relationship."
"What do you think?"
"Do you want to consider it?"
Natasha said seriously.
Yes.
No matter which world you're in, even in free America...
All freedom and equality are very luxurious things.
The law of the jungle is the essence.
For this newly emerging force, especially without any foundation or connections, everyone's first thought is to annex and destroy.
Even in the comic world!
Don't be fooled by how glamorous it may seem on the surface; when you think about it carefully, you'll realize it's not all that simple.
Kudou Shinichi.
His father is a world-class novelist, and his mother is a world-renowned star. A typical second-generation rich kid.
Hattori Heiji, the Chief of the Osaka Prefectural Police Headquarters.
Suzuki Sonoko, heir to the Suzuki Group.
Even the seemingly inconspicuous Ran Mouri is from the Mouri family, which was famous during the Warring States period.
Though it's weaker now, a skinny camel is still bigger than a horse.
Even though Mouri Kogoro is from a collateral branch, he's still wealthy today.
He can afford a three-story villa in Tokyo, where land is expensive, and he was willing to marry a strong woman like Kisaki Eri. Even though Mouri Kogoro is so unreliable, he still does well in Tokyo.
All of this explains a lot.
In fact, nearly all the main characters in the entire Conan universe are from upper-class backgrounds.
Even Teitan High School is an elite school.
Li Ze was able to attend Teitan High because he donated a substantial amount of money and owns a small company.
As for the common people?
The public High School they attend is fundamentally different from Teitan High.
This is why Natasha made her suggestion.
But, Li Ze refused without hesitation.
"Sorry, I can't do it!"
"I don't want to be a puppet!"
"No one can take the meat that's already in my mouth."
"Whoever dares to stretch their claws, I'll cut them off!"
Li Ze said with a cold expression.
Yes.
In his previous life, he had been a corporate drone. Now that he had crossed over with the powerful weapon of the system...
Why should he continue to be a puppet for others?
Was he insane?
"Well, understood." Natasha responded calmly. "I know what to do."
"In that case, I'll handle the company's matters for you."
"But, little boss."
"You better hold on, and don't come crying to me in the future."
After saying that, Natasha stood up, her confident, capable demeanor returning.
Then, she left.
She was very satisfied with Li Ze.
As an eighth-level agent of S.H.I.E.L.D., Natasha still held onto her pride, even after leaving her original world.
She certainly didn't want her boss to become a pawn for other chaebols.
Even the top ten chaebols in the United States couldn't demand such loyalty from her, let alone some insignificant figure in a small basin of power.
