The Grammatical Investigator in Conan
Chapter 1472 Death of Rum
The little girl was petite and cute, with chestnut hair tied into a pair of ponytails. She looked at the men in black in front of her with great resistance.
Rum stared at the little girl's face indifferently, and the black leather eye mask covering his left eye reflected the faint light outside the window.
Suddenly, the corners of his mouth gradually rose, and his cold and creepy voice echoed in the huge collection room.
"You should be the heir who solved the puzzle left by Ise Kousou?"
"Although I don't know which lineage you are from, in terms of seniority, I am at least your grandfather..."
"What's your name?"
Rum raised his hand and signaled his men to let go.
After her hands were released, the nervous expression on the little girl's face relaxed a little, but she still nervously glanced up at Rum with her eyes, and her eyes did not dare to look directly at him.
"My name is... Yuriko Matsunaka."
"Matsunaka..."
Rum was a little confused about the little girl's surname.
But thinking that all heirs can inherit the legacy of the Ise Kawa family by solving puzzles, it is not surprising.
It is estimated that the child's mother was once a member of the Isegawa family.
"Yuriko, are you the only one living here?"
Rum slowly squatted down, his eyes level with Yuriko Matsunaka.
He tried to show a kind and gentle expression on his face, but the black eye patch on his right eye was a bit inconsistent with his "kindness".
"No..."
"And grandpa..."
Yuriko Matsunaka answered timidly.
"Grandpa?"
Rum weighed the generation in his mind. If it was grandpa, he would probably be of the same generation as himself.
Could it be one of his younger brothers?
As the eldest in the family, Rum remembered that he had two younger brothers and two younger sisters.
As for whether Isegawa Gozo continued to have children after he left this family, it was unclear.
"What is your grandpa's name?"
"Is he in this house now?"
Since there are descendants who can speak here, Rum will naturally go to find them.
The purpose of his trip is to take back everything that originally belonged to him.
According to the will of Iseyagawa Tsuyoshi, he is the eldest son and the first heir, so he should be the first to solve the puzzle.
With his intelligence, it is no problem to solve the puzzle of Iseyagawa Tsuyoshi.
So in his eyes, these wealth were originally left by Iseyagawa Tsuyoshi for him.
Now no matter who holds this wealth, it should be returned to him.
Even his younger brother is the same...
A cold light flashed in Rum's right eye.
But at this moment, the door next to the few people slowly opened.
"Who?"
Rum immediately looked in that direction like a frightened bird, and the two men in black also subconsciously reached for their waists and took out their pistols.
I saw an old man in a wheelchair slowly coming out from behind the door.
"Grandpa!"
Yuriko Matsunaka's face was happy, and she walked between the man in black and Rum, hugging the old man in the wheelchair intimately.
Rum narrowed his eyes and looked at the old man's appearance.
The other person was wearing a black pajamas robe, leaning against the backrest of the wheelchair, with a breathing mask on his face and a silver-white beard on his chin.
Rum stared at the other person in a daze, but after thinking for a moment in his mind, he didn't think of which brother he was.
However, he hadn't been home for decades, and his brothers were still young at that time, so it was normal that he couldn't recognize him.
From the age point of view, this person is more in line with his brother.
After all, he has taken anti-aging drugs. If he hadn't taken the drugs, he would be nearly 80 years old now.
Rum stepped forward and asked indifferently.
"Who are you?"
The old man in the wheelchair gently hugged Yuriko Matsunaka who was lying on his legs with one hand, and said calmly: "An old man who you owe something."
Rum's right eye changed slightly, trying to figure out the words used by the other person in his mind.
The other person is someone who knows his identity and may even know the purpose of his coming here.
In this case, it can only be one of his brothers.
After all, I should have been missing in the family for these years, and only Iseya Gozo knew that I inherited the code name "Rum".
Iseya Gozo may have left his existence in some form in his will before he died, telling the successor later.
"Humph, owe?"
Rum snorted coldly, "If you mean the old guy Iseya Gozo, it should be that he owes me."
"I took over his code name and served that person wholeheartedly for decades, but what did I get in return?"
"It's betrayal!"
Rum suddenly roared, and his angry voice echoed in the collection room.
"I didn't get the 'huge empire' he promised me!"
"And Iseya Gozo, if it weren't for him, how could I..."
Rum's heart is not only for the boss of the organization, but also for his father Iseya Gozo, even more resentful.
Because with the great talent and strategy of the organization boss, he created such a huge organization, even if he used himself, it is not surprising.
But his biological father, Iseya Gozo, was a very evil person.
He used his position to constantly pua the young Rum towards him, and finally introduced him to the old man.
Rum had also thought about what would happen if he didn't take the pill in the first place?
First of all, the Ise River family will surely lose support quickly because they cannot choose an excellent code name successor.
They may even be retaliated by the organization boss or even killed.
What is the point of keeping a disloyal subordinate and his descendants?
The two iron rules of the organization: one is not to support idle people, and the other is that once you join, there is no such thing as quitting.
So it seems to be a multiple-choice question, but it is actually a death sentence.
If it weren't for my sacrifice, could the Ise River family have spent these years in peace?
Except for myself, other descendants of the family did not enter the organization. Isn't this also thanks to my protection?
It is because of my dedication that these people have lived an ordinary life. Now they say that I owe them?
It's ridiculous!
"Since you already know who I am, I'll say it straight..."
"I'm here to take back my inheritance, that is, all the wealth of Ise River Gozo."
"But don't say that as the eldest son, I don't take care of you at all. You can keep this place."
For this Angel's Mansion, even if Rum has some memories of the past, he has now completely let it go.
The most important thing is that the organization may also liquidate him next. He can't run around the world with such a big house.
Faced with Rum's tough attitude, the old man in the wheelchair still looked calm, raised his hand and slowly took off the breathing mask on his face.
"No, you owe neither wealth nor status... but my son."
"Your son?" Rum frowned slightly, his eyes full of doubts.
The old man murmured: "My name is Yasuharu Haneda, and my son is Hiroshi Haneda who was killed by you 17 years ago..."
Before the old man finished speaking, a black gun barrel suddenly stretched out from the lacquered wood of the wheelchair armrest.
Before Rum could react, a bullet was ejected from the barrel.
Pia!
After a somewhat muffled gunshot, Rum's body trembled as if he was electrocuted.
He felt a shock to his abdomen, and the strength of his whole body was like an air mattress with a hole punctured, and it was rapidly flowing through that hole.
The two bodyguards next to him reacted immediately and immediately raised their pistols to prepare for shooting.
But before they could raise their pistols, two gunshots from the door hit their bodies.
Pia! Pia!
The two men in black fell to the ground.
Rum looked at the men who fell beside him in disbelief, and then turned to look in the direction of the gunshots.
Two men came from the door of the collection room, one with a mixed-race face and the other with a Japanese look.
"You are..."
Rum stared at the two men in disbelief with his right eye.
Because in his memory, one of the two faces was Qin Zhibo, a famous detective in Tokyo recently.
The other was the man who broke into the ship 17 years ago, Akai Wuwu.
"Your other three men have been dealt with by us, and now you are the only one left."
Akai Wuwu walked over with an aiming posture, and he made Rum give up all hope.
Rum was stunned for a moment, turned his head to look at the old man in the wheelchair who was covering Yuriko Matsunaka's ears, and his eyes were relieved immediately.
"So you already knew my background..."
"But it's useless. I'm still the second in command of the organization. Even if you catch me, you can't put me in jail."
Qin Zhibo broke his last fantasy, "No, you are no longer the second in command of the organization."
"You have been expelled by the organization."
Rum's eyes were surprised again.
The moonlight outside the French window shone into the floor tiles of the collection room, reflecting a cold light on his back.
He covered his injured abdomen with one hand, facing the three figures standing in front of him, and Rum seemed isolated and helpless at this moment.
"So that's it, there are still undercover agents in the organization..."
"Is it Curacao? Or Bourbon, Kil?"
"At least there is Curacao, after all, without her, Bourbon and Kil would not be alive until now..."
Rum's mind was still agile, and he immediately figured out the problem.
But Qin Zhibo looked at him coldly and did not answer his doubts.
Instead, Rum sneered and continued to ask, "What are you going to do with me?"
"Are you going to arrest me and force me to tell you about the boss?"
"But unfortunately, I don't know the whereabouts of the boss..."
Before Rum finished speaking, Yasuharu Haneda suddenly roared indignantly.
"I want you to pay for my son's life!"
Yasuharu Haneda suddenly went to control the armrest of the wheelchair to add a gun barrel, but fortunately, Akai Tsutomu next to him immediately hugged his body.
"Haneda!"
"I understand your feelings now, but we can't let him die so easily!"
"We can still pry a lot of information about the organization from him!"
Akai Tsutomu shook Yasuharu Haneda's shoulders with a small but very solid and powerful movement.
Matsunaka Yuriko also lay on Haneda's knees, looking up with tears in her eyes.
"Grandpa..."
Yasuharu Haneda looked at Akai Tsutomu in front of him, then looked down at Matsunaka Yuriko, and finally slowly let go of his right hand and closed his eyes in pain.
Qin Zhibo still stood there, keeping the gun pointed at Rum.
At this moment, the three men in the moonlight seemed to have returned to the Hawaiian beach 19 years ago.
They were still the same three people in the group photo, but things had changed.
Hiroshi Haneda, who took the group photo for the three, was no longer there.
"Haha, so you want to avenge that genius shogi player?"
At this time, Rum sneered and continued to speak.
"I didn't want to kill him, but he took the initiative to tell the boss's name in order to protect that woman, so I had to kill him."
"His name is Hiroshi Haneda!" Yasuharu Haneda roared.
But then, he coughed because of excessive force, and Akai Tsutomu hurriedly patted his back.
Rum let out a breath through his nose, glanced at Yasuharu Haneda, and did not respond.
He continued: "It's ridiculous..."
"Hiroshi Haneda would never have dreamed that the woman he risked his life to protect was actually the boss's person."
"In fact, not only him, but even I was deceived..."
Rum raised a smile on his lips, but it was just a self-deprecating sneer.
Then, his identity trembled slightly, and he sat down on the ground.
Qin Zhibo immediately realized that something was wrong and hurried forward to check.
Rum's breathing rhythm suddenly became disordered, and a small amount of blood came out of his nostrils.
The caliber of the bullet used by Haneda Yasuharu was very small, and it was not a fatal position. Logically, such a reaction should not have occurred.
Qin Zhibo immediately realized that Rum should have taken poison.
And the fact is indeed so.
The moment Rum saw his men being shot dead, he took the poison hidden in his mouth in advance.
Whether he was caught by the police or taken back by the organization for trial, he could not accept it.
So he was ready to end his life at any time.
Qin Zhibo knew that Rum was beyond help, so he quickly took the last moment to ask him questions.
"Is the woman you are talking about Rachel Asaka?"
"What is her identity?"
Qin Zhibo had already learned from James about the disappearance of Wakasa Rumi.
If Asaka's identity was wrong, then the disappearance of Huihara Ai was most likely caused by her, not Rum.
However, Rum sat on the ground, supporting the ground with one hand, holding up his upper body, and looked like he would not say anything even if he was beaten to death.
Admittedly, he was very disappointed with the boss.
But this did not mean that he would let the red side benefit.
Qin Zhibo had long anticipated Rum's attitude. After all, he was the second in command of the organization. How could he turn against him immediately?
Otherwise, Rum would not have been so valued by the boss.
So, Qin Zhibo took out the letter he had prepared long ago and held it in front of Rum.
"This is the letter your father wrote to you before he died. Don't you want to read it?"
When he saw the letter, Rum's right eye pupil widened instantly.
He raised the hand that was not supporting the ground and tried to grab the envelope.
But Qin Zhibo deftly pulled the letter back, so that he couldn't catch it.
Seeing this, he curled his lips slightly, and blood seeped from his teeth to his lips.
"It was that woman... who took away... Shirley..."
"I don't know her identity... but she is definitely related to that ship..."
Rum kept panting and speaking intermittently.
Qin Zhibo waited for two seconds, and after confirming that his expression was not a lie, he threw the letter to him.
The light envelope floated to the ground, and Rum crawled to the letter like a stray dog, opened the envelope with trembling hands, and pulled out the letter.
In the front of the letter, Isegawa Gozo explained to the heir of the property that his wealth was not obtained legitimately, but with the help of evil power.
Only the last sentence was what Isegawa Gozo wanted to say to his eldest son.
[Rum, your father is waiting for you in hell]
When Rum saw this sentence, his throat felt sweet, his eyes suddenly widened, and his right hand holding the letter fell outward.
Rum.
Dead!
Please go back to Chapter 933 "The Son Inherits His Father's Business" to view the full content of the letter.
