Chapter 82: There is a bright future, and the kidnapper shows his weakness
Qingjian Liuli had no expression on her face, squinted her eyes, and raised her eyebrows. She floated silently behind Takeshi Nanahara, and followed him to the driver's lounge on the side of the mansion - she had been lifted up to the sky by Takeshi Nanahara's energy, and was now in the same place.
In the superposition state of Tibetan fox and ghost.
Takesai Nanahara doesn't care what her mood is. In this world, only employees flatter the BOSS. When did the BOSS start flattering the employees? He doesn't care about the stupid employee Qingmi Ruri. If he doesn't praise him every day as the most handsome guy in Hokkaido, that's it.
She is extremely broad-minded, so if she likes to be angry or not, don't worry about her.
He went directly to Kawai Akihiko's desk and began to rudely rummage through other people's things. The place had already been searched by the police. The pile of junk that Oguri Kamino was looking through before contained many of Kawai Akihiko's belongings.
As a result, he did not gain much. He only roughly confirmed that Akihiko Kawai is a mechanical watch enthusiast. He often buys and reads magazines related to mechanical watches. He owns many small tools for watch maintenance and repair. It seems that when the family does not have a car, he is there.
Maintaining watches here is a unique hobby.
Other than that, we can only confirm that he is left-handed, and nothing else can be seen. After all, this is just a place where he waits for work and rests, not where he lives.
After checking the things, Takeshi Nanabahara smiled and asked another young driver who was watching cautiously: "Hello, is everything normal in the vehicle recently?"
Takaramuro Toka has two full-time drivers, but they are said to be full-time drivers. In fact, they pay more attention to sending the vehicle for maintenance and annual inspections in a timely manner. They are more like vehicle administrators. After all, except Chiho Takaramuro, most people
You don't need them to escort you when you go out, you can just drive yourself, and the person in front of you is the remaining "vehicle manager" except Akihiko Kawai.
He couldn't figure out the identity of Takeshi Nanahara, and he didn't know what he meant by asking, but he also knew that something big seemed to have happened today. Everyone was asked not to get off work or leave the manor for the time being, but he was very cooperative and immediately took out a bunch of
She showed him the vehicle maintenance record book and said politely: "Everything is normal. Senior Kawai is a very serious and careful person and has always asked me to keep good records."
Takeshi Nanahara flipped through the pages quickly and asked: "How is Kawai-san getting along with everyone?"
"Very good. Senior Kawai has been working here... for sixteen or seventeen years. He doesn't like to talk much at all. He gets along well with everyone."
"Where's Mrs. Chiho?"
"The master trusted him before, and so does the madam now." The vehicle manager said with a very decisive tone, "The eldest lady also likes him very much. He also likes to play with the eldest lady and often makes small handmade toys for the eldest lady.
.”
Takeshi Nanahara nodded and asked sideways if anyone in the mansion had heard anyone arguing or seen someone behaving abnormally recently, but he didn't get any valuable information, so he politely thanked him and left.
Qingjian Liuli has recovered now, and she obviously feels that the "Lady's Heart Sutra" has been greatly improved. After all, she can resist grabbing the bitch Takeshi Nanahara and slamming it on the wall to create a big hole. It's really amazing.
Temper your character and think that it will never work if you don't think about it - don't chat with this bastard from now on, only talk about business, otherwise he will be angry to death!
She took notes with a straight face and asked calmly: "Do you think the problem might be with Kawai-san?"
Takeshi Nanahara nodded and said thoughtfully: "After all, there are two people missing. The police are paying attention to Sayuri, but they cannot rule out the possibility that the target is actually Akihiko Kawai, and Sayuri is simply implicated."
Qingjian Ruri also felt that this was not impossible, and she followed Takeshi Nanabahara around the mansion for a while, and only found out some trivial gossip that was not worth mentioning, and had nothing to do with the kidnapping case.
In terms of reviews of Akihiko Kawai, they are basically unanimous. He is a very caring middle-aged uncle. He is calm and reliable in his work. He has no conflicts of interest with others. There is no one who scolds him behind his back. It is hard to imagine that.
Someone took a big risk to attack him.
Kidnapping him is out of the question. His income is equivalent to that of a middle-level cadre in an average company. He has some money but not much money. The risks and benefits of kidnapping him are not proportional at all.
It seems that the target of the kidnappers was Sayuri, and it was Akihiko Kawai who suffered the disaster.
The first idea failed. Qingmi Ruri was slightly disappointed, but Takeshi Nanabahara didn't care. He went to check if there were any unusual resignations in the mansion recently. However, the salary and benefits here in the mansion were quite good, and the society was just right.
During the economic downturn, not a single person has resigned in more than a year.
In the end, he walked around Sayuri's room, and found nothing except that the daughter of the treasure house was raised in a traditional way, and the only daughter's room was decorated in Japanese style. It was a waste of time.
Qing Jian Liuli also found nothing, and said sadly: "What should we do now? No one has any motive for committing the crime. It seems like an outsider committed the crime."
Takeshi Nanabahara looked at the ceiling and recalled for a moment. He really couldn't find anyone with a motive for the crime, and no one seemed to be cooperating with the crime. He muttered: "Simply asking for money may not be a bad thing for Sayuri. Now we can only see if there will be blackmail."
The phone call came."
"A blackmail call?" Qingmi Ruri hesitated, "Sayuri should have been escorted back to the mansion by Kawai-san around one o'clock. The journey only lasted ten minutes and she had just taken a nap when she got home. If they were kidnapped not far from the temple, now
It’s almost nine o’clock, and it’s been more than seven hours. The kidnappers should have hidden Kawai-san and Sayuri long ago, right? Aren’t the kidnappers in a hurry? Why haven’t they sent any information to blackmail them?”
Takeshi Nanabaru touched his chin and thought: "It's indeed a bit weird, so I thought the problem might lie with Akihiko Kawai, but now the case seems to have nothing to do with him, and the kidnapper is procrastinating so much, it's getting weirder and weirder, I always feel
It’s not like a simple kidnapping for ransom.”
Qingjian Liuli frowned and thought hard, wondering what was going on. At this time, a servant hurriedly pushed the door open and said directly: "Nanahara-san, Qingjian-san, Officer Nakano, please come over immediately."
Oh, said Cao Cao, Cao Cao is here? He is really a slow kidnapper. After kidnapping, he even had a good meal to celebrate before coming to blackmail him?
Weird, really weird!
Takeshi Nanahara immediately took Ruri Kiyomi to the headquarters to conduct a temporary search, and found that the atmosphere here had become tense. The detectives gathered together and were busy. Chiho Takaramuro looked sad and was crying. Tomoda Yoshikawa passed a handkerchief and spoke warmly, saying
Jing Minyan was pulling his hair and cursing uncontrollably.
Takeshi Nanahara squinted his eyes to observe the situation, walked up to Eri Nakano and asked: "Is there any news?"
Nakano Eri handed him a copy with a heavy face. Because it was copied through the ID bag, the image was a little blurry, but it did not affect the identification. No wonder the kidnapper was so slow. He clearly found a public phone booth to make a blackmail call.
As a result, a blackmail letter was sent.
What kind of retro kidnapper is this?
Takeshi Nanahara was even more surprised. While receiving the letter, he asked: "How did you send it here?"
"Packed in a logistics expedited delivery box, it arrived on time at nine o'clock." Nakano Eri also didn't expect the kidnappers to be so cautious. They were afraid that the approximate location would be locked, so they wouldn't even make a call. She sighed, "Senior Oguri has already sent someone.
I have traced the logistics information, but it should be difficult to get results."
Takeshi Nanahara nodded understandingly. In order to compete with the post office, sometimes logistics companies would half-sell and half-give away things like delivery coupons. Most convenience stores would also provide shipping services on their behalf. The kidnappers only needed to put the ransom envelope in the box.
It’s very difficult to stick a delivery coupon that you got from someone knows where, find a convenience store far away from you, and just throw it at the delivery point.
He could only rely on this blackmail letter. He immediately carefully checked the typed blackmail letter. Qingmi Ruri accompanied him and after looking at it, he exclaimed in a low voice: "Five hundred million yen?"
The kidnapper's request is simple and direct. No cash is required. Chiho Takarato must put diamonds, gems, and five kilograms of gold worth 500 million yen into a suitcase in exchange for Sayuri's life. The time limit is to have it ready before nine o'clock tomorrow morning.
, otherwise the vote will be torn down.
There was a short section of threats at the end. The kidnapper said that they and others were very aware of Sayuri's important position in the Homuro family. If Sayuri was to be exterminated, Chiho of the Homuro family would immediately lose the right to supervise the huge industry. He asked her to think clearly about the use of
A small amount of money guarantees continued prosperity and wealth for decades, but she still becomes a fool who can only stare at the Jinshan Mountain in a daze, and declares that she can go to the police at will. They don't care. Anyway, they only want to see if they can get the ransom. If any of them are kidnapped
If caught, Sayuri will definitely die, so there is no need to take chances.
"What did the police say? Is there any way to deal with it?" Takeshi Nanahara looked through the blackmail letter carefully, and just as he was thoughtful, Doi Toshihiko, the brother-in-law of the treasure room family over there, completely lost control and pulled the little chestnut duck out of the pile of criminal police.
Ye, yelled at him, spitting on his face, "Can you guarantee that Sayuri will be rescued safely? You guys, please say something! Asshole, have we paid so many taxes in vain every year?"
Oguri Kamino was pulled so hard that his tie was twisted, but as a policeman, he could not fight back no matter how excited the victim's family members were. He could only push Doi Toshihiko away and said in a deep voice: "Doi-san, please calm down, the police will do their best.
We will do our best to ensure Miss Sayuri’s safe return.”
"How do you guarantee it? What method do you use to guarantee it?" Doi Toshihiko is also very strong. In addition, the alcohol has not faded and he has a lot of brute force. He grabbed Oguri Kamino by the collar and couldn't push it away. As he pulled, Oguri Kamino became even more violent.
Embarrassed, he shouted excitedly, "If something happens to Sayuri...if something happens, it will be all over. Can you guys take responsibility?!"
Oguri Yaye was also a little angry, but he really didn't dare to say anything if he could guarantee that the hostages would be rescued. In fact, most kidnapping cases ended with the hostages being raped, so it was easy to talk but hard to bear.
Other detectives also started to come forward to help separate the two people, and the temporary search headquarters was abuzz for a while. But at this time, Chiho Takarato saw that the police did not dare to make a promise, and the string of fear of losing her daughter finally broke, and she was shaky.
Akira stood up and murmured: "Please stop arguing and pay the ransom. I am willing to pay the ransom. As long as my daughter can come back safely, I am willing to pay the ransom, no matter how much it is!"
The more she spoke, the louder she became, and the room quickly became quiet. Koguri Kamino opened Doi Toshihiko's hand, calmed down for a moment and said: "If you plan to do this, you can really prepare as much ransom as possible first."
The kidnappers still have to be caught, and the process of paying the ransom is a good tracking opportunity, but the criminals want diamonds, gems, and gold, and they do not rule out the possibility of asking to show them midway. If they want to test the authenticity from a distance, it is always good to prepare some genuine goods, but this
Of course the police station can't provide the money, so the family members have to find a way.
Chiho Takarato did not expect the police station to come out. She drowsily calculated the deposits in her account, the cash that could be mobilized in an emergency, and the approximate value of her jewelry. She found that it was not enough. Having assets does not mean that all the money is there.
It's a fluid state, so it's a bit difficult for her to withdraw 500 million in 12 hours.
But for her now, nothing is more important than rescuing her daughter. If she can establish a relationship of mutual trust with the kidnappers and ensure that they will never rip off the money after receiving the money, she is willing to drive away the police now and give the money to them.
, or even adding a few more doesn’t matter.
She immediately looked at Doi Toshihiko and said weakly: "Brother, I don't have enough money at the moment. How much do you have?"
Doi Toshihiko, who was very fierce just now and seemed to want to beat up the incompetent policeman for his niece, suddenly became weak. After all, it is too easy for a meat bun to beat a dog with this money. He hesitated and said: "Well, I haven't been very handy lately..."
"Use mine. I'll pool it together and borrow it, and I should be able to come up with 156 million." Yoshikawa Tomoda said, "My sister also left me some jewelry when she passed away. I should take it apart.
It can also be used as part of the ransom."
Chiho Takaramuro was stunned. She didn’t expect that her brother could not be relied on, but Yoshikawa Tomoda was willing to leave her family to help. She was filled with mixed emotions and choked up and said: "Thank you, thank you, I will definitely pay you back as soon as possible... Thank you very much,
Yoshikawa-san, thank you very much."
Yoshikawa Tomoda lowered his head sadly and said: "No, I am also responsible for this matter. Before my brother died, I promised him to take good care of Sayuri. I have always treated her as my own daughter. I didn't expect that something like this would happen. If I can't
If we rescue Sayuri well, I will also... I will not be able to see my elder brother in the future."
What he said was true and sincere, and his shame was palpable. The detectives present couldn't help but cast admiring glances. After all, even if it's to borrow money, it's amazing to be able to help others with just a last request. But at this moment,
A technician from the forensics department suddenly shouted excitedly: "Oguri Police Department, a partial fingerprint comparison was successful!"
The eyes of everyone in the room instantly moved over. Unexpectedly, the kidnappers were so careful and careful that they accidentally revealed their clues.
