Chapter 435: Detective Senichi's Tactics

"Detective Senichi... leave it to you?"

Upon hearing Senichi's words, Ran was a bit puzzled. "But Detective Senichi, how do you plan to handle this?"

"Oh, that's quite simple." Senichi smiled and looked at Touru Akitaya. "Before we proceed, could you tell me what Seiji Hario is up to right now? He came to see you earlier, I assume you know what he's doing."

"Yeah, I know. He's currently a consultant for a food manufacturing company, and they want to acquire my company," Akitaya said with a hint of gloominess. "The company's market has been bad lately, and I only found out that it's all because of Seiji's schemes and the company behind him."

"Exactly as I guessed. This makes things simple."

Senichi shrugged and smiled. "Considering Seiji Hario's character, I'm sure everyone is well aware. Employing such a person as a consultant, the owner of that food manufacturing company should be no different.

After all, if there wasn't support from the boss behind him, he wouldn't dare to do this, so there's no risk of collateral damage.

Although the method is a bit rough, don't blame me for retaliating. Moreover, from a legal perspective, this falls under normal business competition."

"Hey hey hey..." Conan, upon hearing Senichi's words, had already grasped his plan. His expression gradually became strange.

'I may not be human, but you're really shameless!

Money does give you incredible power!!

Well... money really can make things happen. After all, even the top DC hero Batman relies on money.

But I have to admit, Senichi's approach really doesn't have any flaws. It's all part of the normal course of business competition. Nothing questionable about it.'

With Senichi's straightforward retaliation, the others were also stunned after hearing it.

"This... isn't this a bit too..." Eiko Nojima couldn't find the words.

Despite their relatively new acquaintance, the fact that the other was helping in such a way made even her feel that there was no need for it.

"It's just a convenient move."

Senichi casually waved his hand. "I have plans to turn my hot spring into a chain of Japanese hot spring inns. At that time, the inn's cuisine will be crucial, so it's natural to have control over it."

"Is... is that so..."

Upon hearing Senichi's domineering words, the others were somewhat at a loss for how to react, but they could only passively accept it.

"Don't worry, I'll thoroughly investigate the company's situation beforehand."

Senichi smiled meaningfully. "After all, I am taking over a company from people like them. I'm afraid they might have some underhanded means of acquiring other companies for profit behind the scenes.

So, before the acquisition, I will definitely conduct a thorough investigation. If there are any illegal aspects, it will naturally be handed over to the relevant authorities for legal judgment."

His words were righteous and faultless, but the others could still discern the underlying meaning in Senichi's words.

If they had done it honestly, it's fine, but if there are illegalities...

Well, sorry, enjoy staying in the free room and board hotel for a few years. There's also a sturdy bodyguard and a strict fitness trainer nearby to help you build resistance to physical attacks. Who knows, you might even find true love – it's really full of perks.

And Senichi's tactics weren't too excessive; he just forced a person with a terrible personality like Seiji Hario into a situation where he had no other choice.

If the boss is found innocent after the investigation, the money from the acquisition serves as compensation. Afterward, as long as the boss works diligently under Senichi's assigned personnel, Senichi doesn't mind letting him continue managing the company as a senior employee.

As for the workers below, there's no impact at all; if anything, it's a good thing. With the Suzuki family's huge conglomerate as a backer, resources are undoubtedly abundant – a win-win situation.

In other words, Senichi's tactics might be a bit thunderous, but they are only directed at Seiji Hario. For everyone else, there's no impact; in fact, there are benefits.

As for the somewhat wronged boss, considering the likelihood of his innocence, even if he's innocent, giving appropriate punishment to someone like Seiji Hario seems to be acceptable.

In handling this matter, Senichi had no intention of adopting a lofty attitude as a "justice partner" or a "judicator." Instead, he made choices based entirely on his own subjective consciousness – his own likes and dislikes.

In the end, his fundamental purpose was to prevent the case and receive rewards; that was the essence of his actions.

As for the methods used, the amount of money expended, or the connections utilized, and incidental gains – those were all secondary.

Since the last time Senichi used the media to expose the scandal of a doctor at Beika Central Hospital (Teitan High School Festival), he realized the convenience of this method.

If Senichi was considered relatively influential in society at that time, then the current Senichi could be described as a "giant."

If the last incident could be considered as guiding events, this time Senichi was making his first large-scale attempt to use monetary power and connections directly to rudely try to prevent the case.

It was as they say, if you can't stop the occurrence of the case, then solve the person causing it – that's the idea of nipping it in the bud.

Ultimately, Senichi decisively settled this matter. Eiko Nojima's group of four faced this result with their heads spinning, seemingly unable to believe that something that might happen only in a TV drama was happening to them.

Afterward, Senichi suggested that the group act as guides and take them to tour the Kaimon Strait. Naturally, this was to keep them under his watchful eyes, preventing any unexpected incidents.

At the same time, Senichi contacted Ayako, asking her to organize a team for the acquisition and send representatives to discuss the acquisition matters.

Although Ayako was a bit surprised that Senichi went out for a tour and suddenly decided to acquire a food manufacturing company, it was only to a limited extent.

With the current cash flow they controlled, this acquisition was just a drop in the bucket. Ayako didn't accompany Senichi on the tour not only because she was afraid of any inconvenient incidents but also because she was busy handling company affairs.

Of course, the main development areas for the acquisition were the ones designated by Senichi. Currently dominating the market, they had formed a common interest group with the Suzuki conglomerate and other friendly conglomerates.

It could be said that the Senichi-Ayako Group was rapidly expanding at a terrifying speed every day. With full support from the Suzuki family, they had started gradually spreading into various industries, showing signs of becoming an emerging financial group.
