Ke Xue World: The Confrontation between Black and Red

"Good afternoon, two guests, how can I help you?"

At the entrance of the luggage storage area,

Asaka, wearing a wig, a train attendant uniform and a white mask on her face, looked at Mao Li Ran and Toyama Kazuha who appeared here, and asked politely but respectfully.

In his hand he held a cloth mop which he had picked up from somewhere, and at his feet there was a small bucket of water.

The voice changer hidden in the mask directly transformed his voice into a slightly tired and hoarse voice.

She played the role of a train attendant who was cleaning the train so perfectly that neither Toyama Kazuha nor Maori Ran, who had met her once before, noticed anything wrong.

“I came here to look for my suitcase, and just now I was accidentally splashed with tea by her little brat.

I was thinking of getting some clothes from the suitcase and changing out of my wet clothes."

Yuanshan Heye looked Chaoxiang up and down and came up with the excuse they had discussed before.

The moment Asaka saw Toyama Kazuha, she noticed the large tea stain on the bottom of her hem, which was very conspicuous on the red and white shrine maiden's costume.

However, the marks don't look like they were splashed by a child, but rather poured there deliberately.

After quickly thinking about what Toyama Kazuha said in her mind, Asaka successfully guessed the purpose of Toyama Kazuha and Maori Ran, and quickly put the mop in her hand and the bucket at her feet aside.

"Then let me help you find your suitcases. By the way, could you please tell me your name, Miss?"

"My name is Toyama Kazuha."

After hearing this, Asaka walked towards the location of Toyama Kazuha's suitcase with a clear goal, and accurately found the suitcase with the paper tag with Toyama Kazuha's name on it.

Seeing Asaka's skilled posture, Toyama Kazuha and Mao Li Ran immediately dispelled the last trace of doubt in their hearts.

Being able to find the suitcase so accurately, it seems that this train attendant is not an imposter.

Little did they know that before this, Asaka and Vermouth had checked all the boxes in the luggage storage area in order to find the suitcase that contained A Mian.

Asako was looking at her half of the suitcase and read all the paper labels with her name on them.

He might not be able to remember others if asked, but he has a deep memory of special people like Hattori Heiji, Toyama Kazuha and the five suspected targets.

After getting the suitcase, Toyama Kazuha winked at Mouri Ran.

What should they do next? This is different from what they had planned before.

It looks like the waiter is going to continue cleaning. Who knows how long it will take. We can't go through all the suitcases one by one in front of him.

Hattori Heiji rushed to the last carriage and met Mori Kogoro.

He obtained the cell phone of the armed conductor from Kogoro Maori and confirmed that the armed conductor and the people who kidnapped Amien last night were from the same group.

Conan's reasoning line of thought and Amuro Toru's reasoning line of thought once again reached the same dimension.

Although he didn't know yet that the Black Organization was involved in this matter.

But based on the information he had obtained, Conan also deduced that A Mian should be somewhere on this train now.

Among them, the most likely one is the luggage storage area.

For children aged five or six, stuffing it into the suitcase makes it both concealed and difficult to detect.

When the train stops in Osaka, the staff in charge of itinerary arrangements will transport all the suitcases to the booked hotel.

During this period, if you want to do something, you can have countless opportunities by disguising yourself as a train attendant.

In addition, Conan also took into account the changing area and the last carriage used to store various sundries.

So, when making plans, Conan deliberately combined Mao Li Ran and Toyama Kazuha together.

Let them use the excuse that their clothes are wet and they need to go to the luggage storage area to change clothes, and search the luggage storage area first, and then search the changing area.

But the two didn't expect that there was another person named Asaka who was cleaning here, and then she immediately took out the suitcase and gave it to them.

Since they couldn't see any flaws, they had no excuse to stay in the luggage storage area.

Even if I went to the changing area next door first, if I stayed there a little longer, it would probably arouse the other party's suspicion.

Mao Lilan perfectly received the signal from Toyama Kazuha's eyes, glanced at the slightly damp floor, rolled her eyes, and came up with an idea.

I saw her just saying to Yuanshan and Ye:

Let's go, we will take our suitcases and go through the partition door to the changing area next door, then open the suitcases and take out the clothes. "

The next second, his feet slipped and he fell heavily on the wet floor.

Yuanshan Heye quickly let go of the suitcase, squatted down and said:

"Xiaolan, how are you? Did you fall badly?"

She wanted to help but was afraid of hurting Mao Lilan, so she didn't dare to do so. Her face was full of panic and worry.

Asaka was also shocked by this and quickly apologized:

"Miss, I'm so sorry, how do you feel now?"

Mao Lilan sat on the floor with a pale face. She first tried to move her legs, then reached out and touched her knees, and said weakly:

"Maybe you can help me find some medicine to reduce the swelling. My knee just hit the floor. I can move it, but it hurts a lot."

Asaka glanced at Ran Mouri's expression, then looked at her knees covered by her kimono, and guessed that this might be a strategy implemented by Ran Mouri to get rid of him.

However, due to her status, Asaka, who did not want to reveal her identity, could only agree and left the luggage storage area.

Hearing Asaka's footsteps gradually fading away, Mao Lilan immediately stood up and said to Toyama Kazuha who just understood what was going on beside her:

"Okay, that person is gone, let's hurry up and start searching."

next door,

In one of the changing rooms in the changing area, Vermouth heard Asaka being sent away by her angel in a few moves, and a proud and happy smile appeared on her face.

But after looking down and seeing A Mian still sleeping soundly in his arms, his expression slowly returned to its cold state.

You can't be discovered by them.

In the twelfth carriage,

Utsunomiya Hiroshi looked at Toru Amuro who appeared in front of him again. While wondering why the other party came this time, he did not hide the boredom in his eyes.

Especially after chatting for a while and the other party still didn't get to the point, the annoyance in his eyes spread directly to his entire face.

"Mr. Amuro, why did you come to see me this time?"

"I'm just curious, why did Master Utsunomiya insist on rejecting the help I offered you before?"

Facing Utsunomiya Hiroshi's cold gaze, Amuro Toru said the second half of the sentence slowly:

"So, I went out of my way to check on your brother, Young Master Utsunomiya."

Utsunomiya Hiroshi's eyes darkened for a moment. He looked at Amuro Toru's relaxed and smiling face, as if everything was under control, and quietly developed murderous intent:

"Mr. Amuro, I wonder what you found out?"

"I found out that your brother, Master Utsunomiya Shoichi, has not been seen in public for three months.

I just don’t know if he is sick or if something happened?”

Amuro Toru asked a question skillfully.

"Mr. Amuro, this is not something you should be concerned about.

Don't forget that your organization sent you here to help our Utsunomiya family find the red leaf treasure map and the thief who stole the treasure map."

"Of course I haven't forgotten. I came here just to tell you about this.

My previous doubts were just my curiosity. Please don't take them to heart, Master Utsunomiya."

Feeling the murderous intent emanating from Utsunomiya Hiroshi, Toru Amuro's smile became even brighter. While explaining the matter away lightly, he also brought up a new topic.

And his words successfully attracted Utsunomiya Hiroshi's attention.

"Oh, you found it out. Who is it?"

Utsunomiya Hiroshi couldn't help but stand up.

Toru Amuro took out his cell phone and switched to the photo album. The first photo was of a smoky-smelling man.

Utsunomiya Hiroshi's eyes flickered and he asked:

"Is he the person you found out?"

"Oh, no."

To further verify his guess, Toru Amuro explained that this was the suspected target they had previously suspected, while scrolling back the photo album.

One portrait after another passed by Utsunomiya Hiroshi, and finally stopped on a young man with a smile on his face, wearing a white upper body with purple inner garments and a black hat on his head.

"Haga Shuichiro, this is the most suspicious one among the three suspects we have checked so far."

"How to say?"

Utsunomiya Hiroshi asked.

“First of all, the woman who was murdered in the hot spring hotel two days ago was a member of this team.

According to the murderer at the time, the victim's boyfriend, he found that the victim often made phone calls with others behind his back.

After ruling out the possibility of infidelity, combined with the words left by the deceased on the red leaf prayer paper wishing her all the best on her journey, it is entirely possible to infer that the woman is hiding a secret.

And it’s a secret that is related to this treasure hunt and cannot be discovered by my boyfriend.”

Utsunomiya Hiroshi nodded silently in his heart.

"Secondly, I asked my companion to help check the name of Haga Shuichiro. It was a fake identity."

To be more precise, including the woman disguised as Vermouth, of the eight suspects they listed this time, except for the murderer, the identities used by the remaining seven were basically fabricated.

Some names and faces don’t match, while some names and faces match but the identity address doesn’t match the real address.

Some even use the identity information of dead people from beginning to end.

However, Toru Amuro did not mention anyone specifically. He just picked a random person from the remaining three suspects to use as a cover.

However, Utsunomiya Hiroshi did not know this. He thought that Amuro Toru had really found the person he was looking for.

"As expected of an organization that has a genius who can decipher secret codes, they are really efficient and were able to find the person we want so quickly."

Amuro Toru looked humble when he heard this:

"No, this is just the most likely suspect we have found so far. We cannot be sure that this person is the one who stole the treasure map.

We can only confirm this after we find the treasure map."

As Utsunomiya Hiroshi looked at Amuro Toru, whose face was humble but eyes were full of confidence, he became more and more convinced that Haga Shuichiro was the person he was looking for.

So he raised his hand and pointed at the bodyguard in the room and said:

"In that case, let my bodyguard help you."

Toru Amuro did not agree.

“We appreciate Master Utsunomiya’s kindness, but we won’t trouble your men.

In order to reach a cooperation with the head of the Utsunomiya family, our organization attaches great importance to this mission.

In addition to me, the organization also sent a number of good players to participate in this mission."

Seeing Utsunomiya Hiroshi looking up, Amuro Toru continued:

“This is a sincere gesture made by our organization to show the Utsunomiya family. If you get involved, I’m afraid that the cooperation between the organization and the Utsunomiya family will be affected in the future.

If our boss knew, he would definitely blame me."

Toru Amuro's words were full of sincerity and from the bottom of his heart, so Hiroshi Utsunomiya couldn't force his subordinates to participate.

But he then said:

“Then contact me after you get the stuff and catch the person.

I will talk to my father and set a time for the transaction."

"Of course. Then I'll trouble Master Utsunomiya to say a few good words in front of the head of the Utsunomiya family."

After verifying most of his reasoning, Toru Amuro soon ended the conversation with a smile.

As he walked out of the box, the smile on his face instantly disappeared.

In the box, Utsunomiya Hiroshi's expression suddenly became cold.

Although he had already informed his father, the head of the Utsunomiya family, about Ameon's disappearance and kidnapping, the head of the Utsunomiya family instructed that he would send someone else to follow up on the police investigation and explained to Amuro Toru the reason for letting him concentrate on this cooperative transaction.

But the questions raised by Toru Amuro today, especially the one after he investigated Shoichi Utsunomiya, still made Hiroshi Utsunomiya feel frightened.

Of course, he didn't have the courage to tell his father, the head of the Utsunomiya family, the real reason for Amian's disappearance. The reason he used was that the people who kidnapped Amian were another group of people who coveted the treasure map of the Red Leaf Treasure and knew that it was bought by his eldest brother Utsunomiya Shoichi.

The purpose of capturing Amian was that the treasure map of the Red Leaf Treasure was still in the hands of their Utsunomiya family. In order to obtain the treasure map of the Red Leaf Treasure, they kidnapped the eldest brother's only descendant.

The head of the Utsunomiya family naturally believed it, and based on the clues of the arrows left behind from the previous attack, he naturally listed the Hojo family as a suspect.

If things had developed according to Hiroshi Utsunomiya's ideal, then this matter would not be difficult to resolve.

But the problem now is that Utsunomiya Hiroshi is very suspicious that Amuro Toru has already found out that Utsunomiya Shoichi is dead, and based on his behavior in the past few days, he has guessed something.

And today's conversation is actually a test.

Think about it again, there is someone in the organization behind Amuro Toru who does not need the real treasure map or this special code book to decipher the secret code of the gold leaf bounty.

Utsunomiya Hiroshi, who was almost sweating, immediately sent an email to a number he had called before.

Utsunomiya Old House,

In the dim light, a hand opened the email. After reading the content of the email, a deep voice smiled softly:

"This is my son. If you want to be the heir of the Utsunomiya family, you must be ruthless."
