Conan reborn as a detective

Chapter 356 Where is Uncle Maori?

"Unexpectedly, because of a mobile phone sticker..."

Masao Jimbo lowered his head in despair.

"It's because of something like this."

"What's going on here?" The hotel owner looked closely at Gao Cheng, "How could Shenbao kill that impostor? There is no reason at all..."

"The reason is obvious. It's this suitcase."

Gao Cheng was carrying a briefcase.

"The man named Sendaf is actually someone he hired to pretend to be Uncle Maori to get this suitcase...

"Five years ago, two men threatened candy manufacturers and extorted 1 million yuan. One of the men is probably you, and the other is probably the long-haired man who left the suitcase with the hotel owner. The sports newspaper in the suitcase It is a map that hints at the hiding place of the 1 million yuan, I have contacted the uncle and the others just now, and the stolen money has been found near the Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva in front of the Toushen Forest."

Masao Jimbo raised his head slightly upon hearing this.

"If I'm right," Gao Cheng continued, "in the fall of five years ago, you made an appointment with him in the Toushen Forest. After knowing that this is a suicide resort, he may have sensed your killing intent, so he compared the You come here one step earlier, and prepare your hands and feet just in case...

"After you heard the long-haired man say that he had left his things with the hotel owner, he really killed him and pretended to commit suicide. Then he took the key to the suitcase and came to the hotel pretending to be a bearded man, because the owner had been ordered in advance, Of course, I can only receive one curse letter...

"Afterwards, you didn't give up and chose to work in a hotel. By the way, you searched for the whereabouts of the money nearby. This time, because the long-haired man's body was found, the boss happened to tell you about the suitcase. You heard that the boss wanted to entrust Uncle Maori When I came to investigate, I hired Sen Dafu to come and take the suitcase in advance...

"It's a pity that there is no money in it, only an old newspaper. In desperation, I had to kill Sendaf to silence him, and then leave the suitcase, and let the real Uncle Maori help you solve the mystery of the newspaper."

Masao Jimbo remained silent.

"But," the hotel owner was puzzled, "didn't the long-haired man die in the summer four years ago? It happened to be when the employees were traveling, and Jinbo was with us at that time!"

"What if the long-haired man wasn't killed 4 years ago?"

"Huh? No?"

"The long-haired man was killed after handing over the suitcase to the boss in the fall of five years ago," Gao Cheng explained. "The fresh milk, cigarettes, red bean bread and the convenience store receipt in the deceased's backpack were actually It was put in later, yes, at that time four years ago, a suicide corpse was discovered, and the discoverer was Mr. Jinbao himself..."

"Could it be?" The hotel owner and his party stared at Masao Jimbo with wide-eyed eyes.

"Mr. Jinbao put the suicide victim's things on the long-haired man." Gao Cheng looked at the ugly-looking Masao Jimbo. "The purpose is to confuse the time of the long-haired man's death and help him create an alibi in advance."

Masao Jimbo's lips were dry: "You, how did you know?"

"There is no straw on the milk carton, there are cigarettes but no lighter or matches," Gao Cheng took out the photo and laughed, "Summer died but he was wearing a sweater, he had car keys but no driver's license...the reason why he didn't have a driver's license is probably because it had expired at that time Right? If the deceased had an expired driver’s license, the real time of death will definitely be suspected, and the extortion incident that year may even be found out.”

Masao Jimbo's pupils dilated, and he looked closely at Gaocheng: "I, I remembered, you are the famous detective Kido Takasei who is as famous as Sleeping Kogoro..."

"Takasei Kido?"

The hotel owner was bewildered.

"Such a young famous detective? Isn't his name Kindaichi?"

"It turns out that he is Kido Takasei, really young..."

Gao Cheng answered another call from Conan, nodded lightly and said, "Mr. Jinbao, the Tokyo side has confirmed the stolen money and launched an investigation. I believe it won't be long before the blackmail case will come to light."

Yamamura straightened his chest and walked up to Masao Jimbo, imitating the policeman's posture in the TV series and said seriously: "Okay, Mr. Jinbao, come with me to the police station!"

As he spoke, he quietly gave Gao Cheng a thumbs up: "Well said, hero!"

"Big, hero?"

Gao Cheng's mouth twitched.

I still think this police officer and Uncle Maori are the best partners...

"Speaking of which, why hasn't uncle come back yet?" Gao Cheng looked outside suspiciously.

After the uncle was cheated out by Conan, he dug up the stolen money, and then contacted the police department to investigate the blackmail case five years ago, and he was not anesthetized. It stands to reason that he should have returned...

On the side of the road leading to the hotel from the Toushen Forest, two young girls happily called Uncle Maoli to stop.

"Excuse me, is this the way to the Aoi House Hotel?"

"Because we heard that Mr. Mori Kogoro was going there, we wanted to come and have a look, but we seemed to get lost after getting off the bus..."

Uncle Mao Li stared blankly at the two young and beautiful girls. Regardless of Conan's dead fish eyes, he greeted enthusiastically and said, "Oh, what a coincidence, we are going there! Let's go together, you guys at night It's not safe for two girls."

"Really?"

The young girl nodded happily, and looked curiously at Little Conan: "Is this your child? So cute!"

"Where there is, he is just a boarding brat."

"Uncle's name?"

"My humble Toyama Kingoro is just an insignificant traveler."

"..."

Conan rolled his eyelids, and couldn't help but want to pierce the bloody Uncle Maori: This old man...

……

At dawn the next day, Gao Cheng and Xiao Ai packed up their things and prepared to return to Tokyo with Uncle Mori's family. Reika Hayamizu had been guarding the door early.

"Is Detective Kido going back?"

"Yeah, I was supposed to go back yesterday, but it was only a day later when I heard that the body was found."

Gao Cheng smiled politely.

I don't know why, but he doesn't seem to feel anything when facing the beautiful and cute Hayami Reika, who is also an idol of the new generation. Maybe it's because Hayami Reika is underage, or because he became half a friend?

By the way, why do you like Okino Yoko as much as Uncle Mori?

Gao Cheng scratched his hair, but he couldn’t remember when it started. It seemed that he was liked by the uncle. It happened that Xiao Ai hadn’t come to the office at that time, and he had to read it every time he came home from work. I slowly fell in love with Yoko's program.

But it's not as exaggerated as uncle...

"Will you go to the concert next week?" Hayami Reika looked at Gao Cheng expectantly.

"Yes," Gao Cheng said with a smile, "Didn't I reply to the text message?"

Hayami Reika glanced at Haibara in the room, and blinked: "Call me if you need anything, and I will reserve the best seats for you..."

"Lingxiang!" Someone yelled outside, "Isn't it alright? Today's schedule is full!"

"Okay, okay, come right away!" Reika Hayamizu reluctantly responded, and waved to Gao Cheng, "I'm leaving, see you next week."

"Ah good."

Gao Cheng looked at the back of Hayami Reika leaving, feeling palpitated and absent-minded for no reason.

"Everyone else has left," Huiyuan looked at the motionless Gao Cheng, "Who is she?"

"It's the actor I met in the Yuki Yasha murder incident, and now it seems to be more and more famous..."

Gao Cheng frowned slightly, with a hint of worry on his face.

When meeting the person who should be Jintianyili, he unnaturally thinks of the missing hell puppet master Gao Yuanyaoyi.

That guy disappeared for too long, I always feel like he's planning something again...

　Came home to a bunch of weddings only to find out I was a single old cat. . .
