Jiang Xia explained to Kinoshita Yoko: "Mr. Takei was the only witness to the incident of 'Yesterday, there were hostages sitting in the kidnapper's car'. He said that the hostages were blindfolded and mouthed at that time. In other words, he had no idea what he was doing at that time.
I couldn't see the hostage's facial features clearly.
"The view through the car window is blocked, and the most distinctive parts are blocked. In addition, Mr. Takei...may not know his daughter as well as he thinks, so it is easy to see her wrongly."
When Kinoshita Yoko heard this, he suddenly had an idea: "Could it be that the hostages he saw during yesterday's transaction...were they actually kidnappers pretending to be kidnappers?"
Conan couldn't help but glance at her: If you pick out any idol at random, you can react faster than the Megure Police Department... Or is it just Ms. Yoko who is extra smart?
Jiang Xia nodded: "When you are filming TV series, you occasionally use the technique of 'substitute'. What happened probably happened yesterday before the ransom was exchanged. Secretary Huajing specified that Mr. Takei should deliver the ransom alone, and she herself put on the clothes in advance.
Good wetsuit and drove alone to the trading location.
"While talking to Mr. Takei on his mobile phone, Secretary Hanai put on his coat, moved to the back seat of the car, covered his eyes and mouth, and left a blurry silhouette outside through the gap in the curtains.
"Both she and Mr. Takei had short hair, and the curtains were drawn in the back seat of the van. The light was dim, so it was easy to be confused in that situation. After giving Mr. Takei the impression that the hostages were in the back seat, she closed the curtains.
He returned to the driver's seat and stopped the transaction on the grounds that he found Katsuhiko Takehiro had called the police.
"In the end, she drove into the river to create the illusion that all the hostages and kidnappers were dead, so that the police and detectives could relax their vigilance. This way she could re-contact Mr. Takei and arrange the next transaction without interference.
"The kidnapper knew the behavior of the hostage's family members very well because she was always next to Mr. Takei. When she hugged Conan just now, there was a mark of a diving watch on her wrist. If you look carefully, her ankles and calves also have color differences, so it should be
It's the mark of being exposed to the sun while wearing a diving suit.
"When we talked to her before, her reaction was slow because she was not fully prepared before entering the water and hurt her ears. At that time, she even pinched her nose to ventilate the air. This is all evidence that she has been in the water."
Yoko Kinoshita was still a little confused: the gentle secretary Hanai suddenly turned into a kidnapper.
Before he could understand why people change so quickly, Conan's surprised voice suddenly came from the window: "Why did Mr. Takei's car come out? They are leaving now? Didn't they say they were going to trade tonight? Now it's obvious
It’s not even noon yet, has the kidnapper changed the time?”
Jiang Xia walked to the window and took a look, and sure enough she saw that the car had driven out of the garage and was passing in front of the small building.
Conan had an idea and rubbed a disposable football with the high-tech belt given by the doctor, glued the locator on it backwards, and kicked it over.
The football drew a downward trajectory, hit the roof of the car with a thud, and then bounced to the side. The bug mounted on the football was stuck to the car.
The two people in the car were startled when they heard the noise.
Katsuhiko Takei saw the ball bounce to the side and snorted coldly: "That bastard boy, he must not want to be locked up, so he throws things around. I will take care of him when he comes back."
Secretary Huajing frowned in confusion: "..." There seems to be no football in the room. Did he forget to lock the door and Conan ran out?
...Forget it, now is not the time to worry about that child.
She kept walking and secretly increased the speed of the car. The car quickly carried the two of them away at lightning speed.
Kinoshita Yoko was a little anxious: "What should we do now? The kidnappers know that Mr. Takei's money is fake."
Jiangxia meant to dial Katsuhiko Takei, but the person on the other end didn't answer. When he called again, he was blocked - Katsuhiko Takei seemed determined not to have anything to do with the detective anymore. He tried to call someone else's cell phone, but it didn't work.
No one paid any attention either.
"Then call the police." Glancing at the camera held by Yoko Kinoshita, Jiang Xia continued his previous suggestion seriously, "I hope the police can save him in time."
…
after a while.
In the abandoned hill auto repair factory.
Tohru Amuro came here earlier and checked around, but found nothing wrong. Then he entered the warehouse and hid himself to wait for Ireland.
Of course, he can't be idle while waiting, after all, he is very busy. In addition to his two jobs and various part-time jobs, he also has to collect various intelligence by himself.
Toru Amuro took out his mobile phone, clicked on the email attachment, and checked a video sent by his subordinates.
——Before, he felt that there might be a hidden secret behind the accident on the plane Jiang Xia was riding on. It was only because he had personally experienced Jiang Xia's incident and knew that some things could really lead to outrageous coincidences that Toru Amuro was not sure what happened.
Is it a man-made conspiracy or a pure accident.
But now, Ireland suddenly came to visit in an abnormal manner, and Tohru Amuro was more inclined to believe that the plane accident was due to an organized conspiracy.
With the general direction of the search in mind, Toru Amuro found out that there were some flaws in the identity certificates of several guys by following the passenger list that was the best place to start.
After investigation, two of them were identified as Ireland and his accomplices, and the other was probably Kidd who had forged Shinjo Gong's certificate. Only the remaining one, Toru Amuro could not find a clue for the time being.
——The fake identity of this suspicious person seems to have been established not long ago. It is worth noting that this person was not only on the same flight as Jiang Xia when he returned to China, but he was also on the plane when he went from Tokyo to the UK.
...Not only does it look suspicious, it may even be aimed at Jiang Xia.
Thinking of this, Toru Amuro's thinking suddenly stopped: "..." However, it cannot be ruled out that this guy's itinerary is similar to Jiang Xia's, so Jiang Xia's unlucky incident physique made him happen to bump into this person twice.
But no matter what, this is a very important clue.
However, as the investigation continued, Toru Amuro discovered that the matter was not that simple: he asked his subordinates to find all the surveillance cameras along the way that might have photographed this person, but who knew that this person was consciously avoiding the camera along the way. After checking countless videos, it turned out that
I couldn't capture any of the faces - either they didn't appear in the camera at all, or they were wearing masks, or they happened to cover half of their faces by coughing. And the few faces had to be left behind.
On this occasion, the surveillance was actually hacked and deleted in advance!
It's like a slippery loach swimming through your fingers. It looks like it can be crushed to death with a single press of your palms, but in fact, no matter how many times you grab it, you can't get hold of this cunning guy's tail.
