Conan: The truth lies only within the range of fire

Chapter 474 Exploitation

Conan, who was left behind, was still investigating the rowboat in which the gangsters had escaped.

Those two gangsters were careless enough to mistake Mao Lilan for the wrong person, so they must have left clues somewhere.

In the water next to the rowboat, Conan found a purple wig floating on the water.

Conan's expression was solemn. He figured out that the truck driver whom Mouri Kogoro asked and borrowed the truck just now was one of the gangsters.

Because since Mao Lilan's wig is here, the truck driver should have seen Mao Lilan without the wig.

Then you shouldn't say, "You also have long purple hair, right?" 'Such words come.

Conan immediately called Mouri Kogoro's phone number.

But at this time, Mouri Kogoro was also on the phone, and Conan's call could not be reached.

...

Mouri Kogoro got out of the truck and thanked the truck driver: "Thank you very much. Thank you again for your assistance."

Mouri Kogoro looked everywhere for the red truck.

Suddenly, Mouri Kogoro heard the sound of a car crash. He looked back and found that the truck driver's front bumper had hit the flower bed and had been dragged to the ground.

Mouri Kogoro hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "Are you okay?"

The truck driver broke out in cold sweat on his forehead and said with a dry smile: "It's okay, I'm just about to be late for work, so I'm a little panicked."

After saying that, the truck driver hurriedly drove away.

"It must be my fault that I left in such a hurry."

Mouri Kogoro didn't think much about it. After all, he was the one who forcibly commandeered the truck driver's car.

'We just received news that not long ago, a kidnapping case seemed to have occurred at the concert of idol singer Lisa Papp. We have received the video after the incident. Audiences, please take a look. '

On the big screen in the mall, the scene of Mao Lilan being kidnapped by two gangsters was played. One of the gangsters was kicked on the head by Mao Lilan, and his mask fell off, briefly revealing his face.

Mouri Kogoro was a little puzzled. He seemed to have seen this face on the big screen somewhere before.

Mouri Kogoro thought hard: "Where is it?"

Mouri Kogoro's eyes suddenly widened: "Ah! It turns out to be the truck driver!"

...

Inside the Metropolitan Police Department.

Lisa's agent Yamane Ginji said to Officer Megure: "Actually, about a week ago, the agency began to receive threatening calls. There was a person who claimed to be a fan, either asking us to restore Lisa's freedom, or saying She has little money and it’s pitiful that she has to be bossed around, so she threatened that something big will happen at the next concert if she continues like this.”

Officer Memu also said seriously: "These contents are just like a preview of today's case!"

Lisa explained: "However, those were all misunderstandings. I have no dissatisfaction with the agency at all."

Yamane Ginji speculated: "We guess it may be the fantasy of crazy fans."

Officer Megure asked: "Do you have any clues about the prisoner?"

Yamane Ginji nodded and said, "Yes. Ever since Lisa debuted as an underground idol, there has been a man who has come to attend her events every time."

Host Bianca recalled: "So, there is indeed a suspicious man who always comes to photo sessions or shakes hands."

Bianca and Yamane Ginji looked at the face in the video where the mask was kicked off by Maori Ran.

Yamane Ginci said excitedly: "This is the man! He is the suspicious man who comes to participate in events every time!"

The Metropolitan Police Department quickly investigated the suspect's information.

One is Takeyama Taiji, 43 years old, the owner of a second-hand store.

There is only one employee, 190 centimeters tall, who is highly likely to be an accomplice. His name is Ihara Yosaburo, 28 years old.

...

Conan told Officer Takagi who came to pick him up what he knew. The prisoner in the kidnapping case was in the truck commandeered by Kogoro Mori.

The word "Lisa" that Mao Lilan left on the rowing boat was a katakana. In fact, Mao Lilan originally wanted to write it was for a second-hand store.

Probably because he was taken off the ship by the prisoners just after he wrote the first two words.

Conan saw that the truck was a scrap recycling truck with a refrigerator placed on the truck.

Conan guessed that Mao Lilan was hidden in the refrigerator and that the other gangster was also hiding in the carriage because it was covered with canvas.

On the way, Officer Takagi and Conan saw Kogoro Moori who was swinging his legs crazily.

After Mouri Kogoro got in the car, he learned that Conan and Officer Takagi also knew that the culprit was the truck driver.

Mouri Kogoro said anxiously: "The truck just hit the flower bed. The bumper fell off and left a mark on the ground. We can follow this mark and chase it!"

Officer Takagi pressed the accelerator to the bottom and followed the tracks according to the marks left on the road.

...

In a scrap recycling plant.

Takeyama Taiji parked the car in front of a small house.

Takeyama Taiji took off the canvas and suddenly took a few steps back in horror.

Because his accomplice was actually in the refrigerator now, and Kamiya Minatsuki was smiling and waving at him.

Zhushan Taiji looked serious and said inwardly: "Who are you! Where is Lisa?!"

"Lisa? I'm still giving you pizza. You guys are unlucky. You've found yourself in trouble."

Takeyama Taiji casually picked up an iron rod and hit Kamiya Minazuki on the head.

'boom. ’

A gunshot rang out, and Takeyama Taiji fell to the ground, clutching his legs and wailing.

Kamiya Minayuki took a deep breath of the smoke from the revolver and said, "Idiot, if I didn't want to play with you, I would have killed both of you on the way."

Kamiya Minatsuki grabbed Takeyama Taiji's hair and dragged him towards the hut.

After entering the cabin, Lisa's posters were plastered everywhere, and there were many photos of Lisa and Takeyama Taichi posted on a writing board.

"Oh, what a fan."

Kamiya Minayuki threw Takeyama Taiji on the ground, sat on the chair, and started operating the computer on the table.

"Hey, the ardent fan still exchanges emails with the idol."

[Mr. Takeyama, please, please rescue me]

[Please take me away from the event on the day of the concert]

[Please help me ring the fire alarm and create chaos]

There is also a floor plan of today's concert venue in the email.

Kamiya Mingyue touched his somewhat rough chin: "Tsk, he was used as a gun, but is this guy really the Lisa herself?"

As a star-chaser, Kamiya Minayuki didn't think Lisa, as a popular idol, would find a fool who knew nothing to create such a mess full of loopholes.

If he was discovered, his future would be ruined.
