Phantom Thief of Heart!but conan

Chapter 171 Jiang Yuan Tokio Is Missing

"What does it mean that Tokio Ehara is missing?" Putting down the coffee in hand, Kogoro Mori asked in a daze.

"Literally." Shiro Konno pushed his sunglasses, wiped his laptop with a cherished face, and said, "I didn't see him all day today."

"Could it be that he's the host, and he didn't come out at all when he realized something was wrong?" Mr. Jincheng pushed the sunglasses on his face, and laughed twice, "Jiang Yuan is indeed the kind of person who can only show off through the screen. What about cowards?"

"Grandpa, do you know Mr. Jiang Yuan?" Mori Kogoro looked at him who was leaning on crutches.

"Hey, why don't you know him? After all, he is the murderer of my son." Genichiro Jincheng stomped the crutch in his hand and sighed.

Conan's attention was suddenly attracted, and he looked at Genichiro Jincheng intently: "Grandpa, do you mean that Jiang Yuan Tokio killed someone?"

"What the master said is that he regards it as a child's game program." Lin Jingjiang, the servant standing behind him, added.

"Jiang Yuan, he is a despicable guy. He has good technology, but he never does business." After wiping the dust off his computer and starting to apply maintenance coating on it, Konno Shiro said casually, "He is a hacker, and his reputation It's terrible, you should ask Mr. Maeda and Ms. Sayama about this."

Akiko Sayama, who has been out of shape today, with a pair of sunglasses on her face, folded her arms and turned her head in one direction when she heard the words.

Satoshi Maeda reached out and patted her back, and sat close to each other, and answered for her: "Akiko's brother, who is also my friend, founded a software company a few years ago. Originally, all aspects of operation have been very good. Well, it has received venture capital from a big bank, but Jiang Yuan used hacking methods to steal the program they are developing."

Hideko Kamijou, who was smoking a cigarette, snorted coldly: "I heard about that software, and he tried to sell it to me. After discovering its origin, the company stopped the acquisition..."

"...but it's too late." Satoshi Maeda sighed, putting his arms around his thin fiancée, "Akiko's brother, because of the leak of the software, is facing divestment and accountability, he couldn't face the questions from his partners and investors, so he jumped off committed suicide."

Akiko Sayama lowered her head and quietly leaned on Maeda Satoshi's generous shoulder, still not saying a word.

Her eyes under the sunglasses were red and swollen at the moment.

Last night, after watching the Phantom Thief of Heart disappear without a trace in the night baron's costume, she watched the video twice before making up her mind to delete it.

When Maeda Satoshi returned to the room, she hugged her boyfriend, crying out for the first time in several years.

The stubborn Akiko Sayama hardly ever expressed the pain caused by her brother's death.

The strange thief who claimed to be punishing her on her behalf seemed to have taken over the burden of her heart at once. Her emotions were completely overwhelmed. She couldn't help but hugged her fiancé, cried all night, and fell asleep in his arms.

Today, her eyes were swollen and her voice was hoarse. If Maeda Satoshi hadn't insisted, she would never have left the room.

"A Cong." Akiko Sayama suddenly called out her boyfriend's name with a hoarse voice.

"Huh? What's the matter?" Maeda Satoshi subconsciously responded as he flapped his hands on his girlfriend's back as if coaxing a child.
"We'll hold the wedding when we go back." Akiko Sayama looked at the silver ring on his hand, and reached out to hold his palm.

Last night, the shiny silver ring on her hand was like an anchor in her heart, firmly grasping her.

While communicating with the mysterious man who called himself the Phantom Thief of Heart, she kept caressing it unconsciously, and finally wavered and accepted the other party's proposal.

...Put that set of evil attire in the place designated by the other party.

She also let go of the hatred and anger that was heavily suppressed on her back.

"Eh?!" Maeda Satoshi was a little surprised, but at the same time at a loss, he froze his movements, "Didn't you say... don't want to..."

"I've changed my mind." Sayama Akiko laughed, put her forehead on the side of his neck, and said softly, "You're right, my brother has been away for so long, I should let it go."

Distress and relief flashed in Maeda Cong's eyes, and he hugged his girlfriend deeper into his arms: "Mingzi..."

Conan stared at the two huddled together in a strange way, not quite understanding why their style of painting suddenly entered the romance channel, it was only because of the mention of the death of his brother, which made Akiko Sayama shaken and needed the comfort of close people.

He was still recalling the information in the words of a few people just now.

"So, you came to the 'Mysterious Journey', not for the virus?" Conan was a little puzzled, "You don't think you are here for Tokio Jiangyuan, right?"

All the members who came to participate in the event had a grudge against one of them... somehow, there was a sense of familiarity.

"They probably are. I'm not interested in hackers or anything." Shiro Konno was the one who didn't care much. After finishing his daily routine work, he put his precious machine into his briefcase, "Anyway, I'm I'm really interested in viruses..."

"If the organizer is really Ehara Tokio, then I think it's useless to get the virus. It's probably a cover made up by him." Hideko Kamijo shook the cigarette in his hand and said disgustedly, "With his character, If he really mastered that horrible virus, he would have used it to spread blackmail everywhere, and it is impossible to share it with others."

Looking at Kamijou Hideko's sexy backless dress, Mori Kogoro was a little eager to move, and approached courteously: "You seem to know him very well, Miss Kamijou."

"Hmph, after all, he is my ex-husband." Hideko Kamijou shook her head, her long curly hair floating like waves on her smooth back.

"Ah?" Mori Kogoro was really surprised, "Look, I can't tell..."

When a group of people were sitting in the open-air restaurant drinking afternoon tea, chatting and testing each other, Conan suddenly noticed a black shadow from the corner of his eye.

The inexplicable dream last night still flashed back in his mind from time to time, and he keenly looked in the direction of the shadow.

——I saw a roll of black robe and white mask suddenly thrown down from upstairs and smashed into the swimming pool below, causing the tourists who were playing in the pool to scream.

Almost in the next second, he ran over and asked loudly, "What's wrong!"

Could it be that the missing Jiang Yuan Tokio was taken from above...

When he saw the lump clearly, his question stuck in his throat.

"Hat, mask, cloak and robe..." Tang Ze, who was following behind him, squatted down and looked at the things floating on the water.

"This is the night baron's attire." Hideko Kamijou walked slowly and recognized the distinctive mask.

She looked up and saw the semi-circular terrace where Conan almost fell yesterday.

"Why did you throw this kind of thing down all of a sudden, is it a prank?" Konno Shiro frowned, watching the fabrics slowly unfolding in the pool.

Seeing this scene, Akiko Sayama suddenly tightened her hand with her fiancé, and tears appeared in her eyes again.

She knew... that was the man's answer.

The mission of the "Night Baron" is over.

Conan, who had been attacked, was probably the most nervous among the people present.

He pondered, secretly scrutinizing the reactions of the crowd, and then looked up at the hotel lobby behind him, trying to find the missing Jiang Yuan Tokio.

Seeing this, he was stunned.

A figure with chestnut hair and wearing a black shirt, pushing the largest silver suitcase in his left hand, was leaving the front desk and walking towards the main entrance of the hotel.

From a distance, I couldn't see this person's face, but this color scheme made Conan immediately think of a familiar name.

Akechi Goro...?
"What's wrong?" Tang Ze walked in front of him, blocked his gaze, and looked in the direction he was looking for a while, then turned around and said, "Did you find anything?"

"...It's nothing." Conan shook his head, looked away, and watched several participants pick up the suit from the pool, "Maybe I misread it."

Akechi Goro also came to this hotel for vacation... What a coincidence, not to mention his clothes are very different.

Ever since Akechi Goro appeared, his khaki double-breasted jacket and black trousers have never been changed, and he is always dressed like this.

Maybe it's just that the hair color is a bit similar, which made him have an illusion.
