Traveling through Conan: Buying Poirot Cafe at the beginning

Chapter 146 The Disappearance Case of Taku Itakura

Conan, on the other hand, was thinking wildly:

game company? Could it be that group of people from the black organization again? How is it possible? It should be an ordinary missing persons case.

Xiaolan hung up the phone and shouted to Kogoro: "What are you still doing? Why don't you wash your face quickly and hang up your beard?"

"Oh well."

Kogoro looked at Xiaolan who was about to get angry and hurried to the bathroom. At the same time, I kept muttering in my heart: Why does this child look more and more like her mother as she grows older?

Xiaolan looked at Yang Ming apologetically, not expecting to receive a case suddenly.

"Sorry, Yang Ming, I didn't know there would be a sudden case. How about you wait here for a while? I believe dad can solve it soon."

Yang Ming shrugged and said there was no problem.

"It's okay. I'll just take a look here. Maybe I can be of some help."

The entrusted person arrived quickly. Kogoro was responsible for receiving them, while Yang Ming and Xiaolan Conan stood aside.

Different from imagination, there are three people entrusted this time, and they are from different companies.

Their main businesses are also different. They are Ryusuke Soma who operates chess, Subekuru who operates chess, and Heidai Naito who operates chess.

"The person in the photo is Mr. Itakura, the game system engineer. The teacher said that he is missing now."

"What! Missing?"

Kogoro was shocked. According to past experience, missing persons cases always turn into death cases.

"Yes, the deadline for the game we commissioned him to design was about to expire, but he suddenly disappeared after sending us an email."

"You're right. In fact, this is not the first time Itakura has happened. But before, he would always give us the first draft a few days before the end of the deadline. But now there is no news at all."

"Sorry to interrupt."

Yang Ming was listening on the sidelines, and suddenly felt that something was not right, so he couldn't help but interrupt their conversation.

"Excuse me, did the designer named Itakura Taku accept the commission from the three of you at the same time?"

The three of them looked at each other, and one of them, a very fat man, said, "Yes, my name is Ryusuke Soma, who is you?"

Yang Ming smiled slightly and said calmly: "I am the owner of Bailuo Cafe downstairs. I came upstairs to do other things. I'm sorry to disturb your chat."

Souma shook his head and looked at Kogoro:

"Last time we called the police because we couldn't find him, but the police gave us a scolding. So we want to ask you to help find him."

Kogoro took a sip of tea and frowned.

"It's no problem to find someone, but is he really capable of designing these three softwares at the same time?"

Subekru, who had dyed brown hair, slapped the table with both hands, stood up suddenly and roared:

"That's why we have to ask him to find out! This is a fundamental violation of the contract!"

Souma Ryusuke was very angry, clenched his fists, held back his anger and said:

"When we approached him to sign a contract, he acted nonchalantly and told us that he had not signed a contract with another company yet. Just let us rest assured."

Kogoro then asked: "Then how did you know that he took on three cases at the same time?"

Naito Heidai took a computer, found a video, and showed it to Kogoro.

"The three of us received the email from him at the same time, so we learned about it."

In the video, Taku Itakura is sitting on a chair with his legs crossed and said casually:

"Oh, taking three projects at once is a bit too much. I feel that my heart condition is a little bad right now, so I decided to put down my work temporarily and find a place to take a good vacation."

At the end of the video, Kogoro frowned, and Xiaolan recognized him.

"Ah? This person is Taku Itakura. Wasn't he a very famous game planner before?"

Souma's expression changed and he explained: "Yes, he was indeed doing game design before, but in recent years he switched to game system construction."

Kogoro's voice was a little sad, and he said quietly: "Since he is so famous, he couldn't have been kidnapped, right?"

"No way?"

Naito Heidai's face was full of disbelief, while Soma held his chin and analyzed:

"That's not necessarily true. I still remember that I went to Mr. Itakura's company two years ago and saw a tall man in black with a beard and a Kansai accent talking to him."

Yang Ming and Conan were both stunned because they thought of an old friend.

"You should all have met them. When Mantiantian held a software conference this year, that guy also came."

Conan was in a daze for a while, the memory of death hammering on his head, and a look appeared in his mind.

This person is Tequila who was accidentally killed by a bomb. The person Ryusuke Soma was talking about must be him.

Yang Ming also thought of this person and thought to himself: Could it be such a coincidence? If that's the case, then today's case is the main plot?

"What did that big man in black say?"

Conan couldn't wait to ask. The opportunity he had finally waited for finally came, and he could finally get close contact with the organization again.

Ryusuke Soma's eyes were filled with fear as he recalled the scene at that time.

"I remember, as soon as I arrived at the company, I heard the guy say, 'You have no use value anymore,' and then he left."

"Is that it? There must be something else to say?"

Conan looked very anxious and asked again. At this time, Xiaolan picked him up from behind.

"Conan! Don't interrupt the conversation between adults."

Conan's face turned pale in Xiaolan's arms, thinking: Damn it, now that things have happened, only by finding Mr. Itakura first can we get clues about the black organization.

Kogoro looked at Conan being carried away without any expression, and looked at the three people in front of him.

"I remember that the man in black was killed in the previous bombing. The only problem now is this video email and how to find him."

Naito Heida thought for a moment and said, "I think he should be in that hotel now, but in order to protect the privacy of guests, the hotel does not disclose the residents' information to the public."

"Damn it, how on earth can we find him?"

Kogoro was so anxious that Conan in Xiaolan's arms said something inexplicable:

"By the way, Sister Xiaolan, I want to eat sashimi and Tianjin rice tonight. It would be better if it is paired with beef soup."

"How is that possible? What you are talking about includes neon cuisine, Chinese food and Western food. There is no way to eat these dishes at the same time in ordinary restaurants."

The corners of Conan's mouth raised, his goal was achieved.
