Conan's face turned green as soon as he heard Linton say this. Hattori Heiji next to him, of course, didn't know what was going on and started asking questions with interest.
"A physique that easily attracts crime... Hahaha... It seems that this is really the case." After listening to Conan briefly explain the situation, Hattori Heiji here thought about it carefully and seemed to agree with this statement. After all,
This is really based on facts. Even Officer Memu and the others feel that something is wrong. It is an official complaint.
"What do you want to drink? If according to what he said, the cases brought by famous detectives attract people, aren't you also one of the famous detectives?" Conan rolled his eyes and said.
"Uh..." I have to say that these words of anti-shogun Ichijun made Hattori Heiji a little speechless. Indeed, thinking carefully about the many cases he encountered inexplicably, especially every time he wanted to take Kazuha everywhere.
When playing, I always encounter cases that suddenly appear, and as a detective, Hattori Heiji always leaves Kazuha aside to solve cases. Kazuha has complained about this many times, so if you think about it this way
, Conan’s words seem to be right.
"Muji Sai, in short, does the matter of attracting physiques in the case have anything to do with your wearing women's clothing?" Hattori Heiji here once again rebelled against General Ichijun.
"You..." Conan was indeed choked and speechless again, but shouldn't he be unanimous at this time? Why did you suddenly stab him in the back?
"Yes, no matter how much you talk about other things, you can't get away with the women's clothing matter." Linton also said with a smile, "Without further delay, let's go buy it now."
"Huh? Now?" Conan here was also stunned, "Hey, hey, you are a little too impatient anyway. Don't you care about Kaneki Ken's matter?"
"It doesn't look like there's much to gain from this," Linton said, spreading his hands. After asking several neighbors, except for the former prisoner Misari Into, who provided some information, the other neighbors either had no one at home, or
I’m just not very familiar with Kaneki Ken here.
The only clear information provided is that Kaneki Ken is not married, because the proportion of women here in Japan who work as full-time housewives is still very high. In such a community, if gossip is about these women who have nothing to do at home, they visit everywhere.
, then there will be more gossip information. However, Kaneki Ken is not married and does not have a wife, so there are no women going to his house, so there will be less gossip information.
In this way, except for a few people who had no one at home, Linton basically asked them all. What he actually knew was that Kaneki Ken stayed at home for a long time, and most people also speculated whether he just worked from home or something like that.
Not a lot.
While talking, Linton and others also returned to Kaneki Ken's house. At this time, Toyama and Ye here had also woken up. Apart from being a little panicked, there was really nothing wrong with them.
"Heiji, did that person just... explode?" Seeing Hattori Heiji return, Toyama Kazuha asked hurriedly. Although she also asked Miyano Akemi and Haibara the same question.
I'm sorry, but neither of them was involved, and of course they don't know what happened over there.
"Ah... this prisoner probably had explosives on him, and he accidentally detonated it and blew himself up." Hattori Heiji here said in a nonchalant manner. Of course he knew that this was Linton's doing, but he just didn't want to be far away.
Shan and Ye were involved too much, so they responded casually, "The police are already investigating this matter. It has not been made public yet. In short, several prisoners have been arrested now."
"It's really scary." Obviously, the previous incident had cast a considerable shadow on Yuan Shan and Ye, and now they were still confused.
"Are you done asking?" Miyano Akemi asked Linton.
"There's not much useful information." Linton spread his hands and said, "Have you gained anything here?"
"I can only say... there are really too many things left behind." Miyano Akemi said, "But most of them are notes on some works, settings and the like. It seems that Kaneki Ken's goal is to establish an entertainment company...
…”
"What's surprising is that this guy's steps are really a bit big. He has scripts, songs, novels, games..." Haibara Ai next to him said, "But most of his works... are pretty good."
Because it was copied, of course Linton was not surprised. In short, it seems that Kaneki Ken is really planning to become a copywriter in the world of Conan and establish an entertainment empire? This goal is a bit too small, so just wander around.
There are probably more than this achievements in several worlds, so I don’t know what this guy wants to do.
"Aren't there any special original works?" Linton asked.
"Are you saying that none of these things are original? I haven't seen them anywhere else," Haihara Ai said.
Linton thought about it and realized that it was useless to say so. Haihara Ai had no way of judging whether these works were plagiarized or not.
"But apart from these, there are some other discoveries." Haiyuan Ai suddenly said again.
"Oh? What is it?" Linton asked.
"That..." Haiyuan Ai pointed to a small cabinet not far away. Linton looked over there. The cabinet was not the focus, but the phone on it. "I found some clues on the answering machine.
.”
"What is it?" Linton asked.
"The phone has been down for at least half a year due to arrears." Haibara Ai said, "But before the shutdown, someone often called to press for payment. This Kaneki Ken must have disappeared at that time, and of course no one answered, so the answering machine
I left a lot of messages from that person until the tape was full."
"Who is it? Why did you leave the message?" Linton asked. Answering machines are quite popular here in Japan and I don't know why. In fact, some aspects of Japan's Japan are really strange, just 2022
In 2017, some ZHENG government departments were using fax machines to distribute materials, but I don’t know what they were trying to do.
"The person who left the message is named Itakura Taku. Most of the content in the message is a reminder. It probably means that if no payment is made, the game will not be able to continue. So it is estimated that Kaneki Ken contacted a game company to help him produce the game.
, it is very possible that the money he mortgaged for the house was also used for this, but later because he disappeared, the funds were cut off. People from this game company have been calling to collect payment, but the latest thing was half a year ago
Well, this game is probably dead." Haiyuan Ai reasoned.
"Itakura Taku?" Linton always felt that he had some impression of this name. It must be the first time he heard it, so it must have appeared in the original work?
If he couldn't remember, it probably wasn't an important role. However, Linton wanted to ask the other party about the situation.
Kaneki Ken used to run a game company by himself, the one that made Pokémon, but later due to the failure of the game launch, the company went bankrupt. So this time he is planning to change his approach and find an existing game company to provide funds to help him
Developing games? In this case, Taku Itakura should know Ken Kaneki, or be very familiar with him?
Linton also wanted to know what kind of game the other party was developing. It would be best if it was an original game, so that he could understand the idea of Dianjin Muyan. For example, making a game based on his experience and background as an investigator would be really awesome.
It helped a lot. Unfortunately, Linton probably didn't have such a good thing. The Pokémon in the first game suffered a lot. The second game will probably be more cautious, the kind that guarantees to make a fortune...
Speaking of which, why is Kaneki Ken so interested in entertainment? Do you want to publish some works of your own? Linton wonders if there are special rules for precious goods in this world, such as copyright and so on? Of course you have to say it
It doesn't seem impossible that this guy just likes to play like this.
Linton decided to have a chat with Taku Itakura, how about trying to buy a game copyright or something. Or must he make one himself? Kaneki Ken was just trying to find out if it would be okay to pay someone else to do it.
The solution? Forget it, let’s meet and ask when the time comes.
"Can I still contact Taku Itakura?" Linton asked, "There should be his number on the phone."
"Yes, do you want to contact him?" Hui Yuan Ai asked.
"Call him." Linton said directly.
Of course, Haiyuan Ai called immediately, but she didn't expect to receive the news that the other party had turned off her phone.
"Ordinary business people rarely turn off their phones during the day." Haiyuan Ai frowned and said, "It's probably because they don't use this number anymore."
"Well... don't let it get cold." Linton said suddenly.
"Huh?" Hui Yuan Ai was slightly stunned.
"In detective films like this, if you meet someone you can't contact, there's a high probability that you'll die immediately," Linton said.
"So... we said this is the real world." Haiyuan Ai held his forehead.
"Then... how about we make a bet?" Linton said with a smile, "If I win, you can wear women's clothes... for three days."
"I am a woman to begin with, but what have you always thought of me so far?" Haiyuan roared.
"Tch...is she really a woman? Don't think that you can stop wearing women's clothes..." Linton curled his lips and said.
"So what I'm wearing now is..." Haiyuan roared.
"Then... let's get some high-end ones, like Lolita outfits, and then take a full set of photos." Linton thought for a while and said.
"Hey!" Haiyuan roared.
"I was just about to buy women's clothes for Conan, and I bought all yours by the way." After Linton finished speaking, he shouted directly in the direction of Miyano Akemi next to him, "Miyano Akemi, your sister said she wants to wear lolita clothes."
There was a "ding" sound, and for some reason Haihara Ai saw a flash of light in the eyes of Miyano Akemi who turned around.
"That's nonsense, I never said it at all!" Hui Yuan Ai said quickly.
"Hold her and go buy a dress." Linton said with a wave of his hand.
