When the mechanical chorus rang on the other end of the phone, Suzuki Shiro was not surprised at all.
In the past thirty years, they have only contacted each other three times, and each time the other party was so secretive.
"Good day, Chairman Suzuki." The mechanically synthesized electronic sound is not pleasant at all. Every time I hear it, Suzuki Shiro will complain in his heart. He obviously has a good-sounding voice changer, why do he still choose this kind of inhuman voice?<
/p>
"If you did what happened this time..." Suzuki Shiro said calmly.
"Don't be so nervous," the electronic voice interrupted his unspoken meaning, "We have no intention of becoming an enemy of your consortium. If it was really our fault, we would have already taken action thirty years ago when you rejected us."<
/p>
Suzuki Shiro sneered: "I wasn't married thirty years ago."
The person on the other side was silent for a moment, maybe thinking about something, and then said after a long time: "Yes, I forgot, the first contact was with your father."
Although it is still a mechanical sound, it sounds a bit desolate.
"Let's stop chatting." Suzuki Shiro interrupted this meaningless topic, "Where is my daughter now?"
A mechanical voice sounded: "Please rest assured, Chairman Suzuki, your daughter is safe now and her life is not in danger."
"As a father, I want more than this guarantee."
"But as a businessman, you should know that only by equal exchange can a sale be completed, right?"
Suzuki Shiro was silent, and time did not pass long. He opened his mouth and said: "I know you have been thinking about "it", but the higher ups are keeping a close eye on things like this. It is impossible for me to steal it and give it to you."
."
"Of course, I know." The mechanical voice said, "So I'm just here to replace you with someone else."
"Do you want a spot there?"
"It's impossible, that artificial intelligence won't let you in."
"Don't forget to deny it yet." The mechanical voice said slowly, "Since I dare to ask for it, I must have a way to get in."
"One quota can change one life. I think Chairman Suzuki will not refuse."
Eleven people were kidnapped. There is no way for the Suzuki Consortium to get so many places, and it is impossible for them to be so philanthropic and pay such a high price for unrelated people.
The mechanical voice asked: "So how many people does Chairman Suzuki want to replace?"
"..."
"One."
Suzuki Shiro was unusually silent after he walked out of the study. Ayako didn't say anything despite repeated questioning. She just said lightly that she was tired and went upstairs.
As a couple for decades, Suzuki Tomoko can sense her husband's tangled psychology. Although she doesn't know what happened, in just ten minutes, Suzuki Shiro must have done something against his own wishes.
After persuading her daughter to go to bed, Suzuki Tomoko returned to the room and saw her husband sitting in a chair, staring at the notebook on the desk.
Tomoko Suzuki had seen that black notebook. It was very old but without any damage. It was said that it was given to him by the chairman of the previous generation Suzuki Foundation, Shiro Suzuki's father. Tomoko Suzuki didn't know what was recorded in it. p>
She doesn't want to know either.
"What do you want to eat in the morning, husband."
"Anything is fine... By the way, open a bottle of gin for me."
"Gin?"
"Yeah."
……
"The badge's power can last up to three days without use."
Dr. Ari operated the Metropolitan Police Department's computer and input the signal source. "Because the function of the transmitter must be maintained, the power will be consumed by itself."
"That is to say, a total of 72 hours..."
"Less than 72 hours." Dr. Ali corrected, "First of all, we cannot guarantee that the children will be charged every day. Secondly, we do not know whether they have used it before being kidnapped or during the journey."
"So I suggest that the validity time be at most half, that is, 36 hours. This is based on the premise that their badges are still on them."
36 hours, almost 0 clues, Mu Mu Shisan is at a loss.
"In short, we will use the police radio to search first. Due to the scope problem, we will send as many radio trucks as possible to check around."
"As long as it is not in any special place, the signal source will not be blocked."
It's just that the efficiency of doing this is too slow, not to mention the situation where it cannot be found. Even if it is found, it is uncertain how long it will take by the time it is found. Whether all eleven people are still safe, or the badges have been thrown away long ago. They
All I found was a useless location.
Therefore, both detectives and policemen only regard this matter as an alternative, which is better than nothing. What they really rely on is all the clues along the way.
"First, if someone exchanged fire with them, can we identify the group of people who exchanged fire?"
Takagi: "The other party only left the shell casings, and most of the rifles that can be used in this way are of unclean origin, and it is difficult to trace the source."
"Second, can we find out any information about Tsuchiya Takumi?"
Takagi: "We are currently checking nearby restaurants, theaters, bars and other places based on the portrait to see if there is anyone who knows him."
"Third, the other party did not immediately contact the original owner to ask for ransom after kidnapping the person. This proves that the kidnapping was not carried out for this reason, so it is very likely that he is a human trafficker or an organ trafficker."
"The latter two require finding a suitable buyer. Can we find the suspect through this?"
"This is harder than finding a gun..." Someone complained softly.
Kuroki Jin wears a top hat, uses flat glasses to slightly cover the outline of his lower eyes, puts on some makeup on his face, and has a fierce aura, which makes him completely different from the original one.
"No, no, you are here to discuss business, not to kill people. The other party has been struggling for so many years, and his ability to sense danger will not be weak. If you go like this, it is simply saying 'I want to cause trouble' on your face.
”
Kuroki Ren: "..."
"Think about those smiling tigers in the organization... For example, think about Yu Lu. When he was sinister, he made people feel the danger in advance."
Then I remembered the murderous aura in Kuroki Ren of Shirley Oshikanin:
Miyano Akemi patted her forehead and readjusted Kuroki Jin's mentality again.
"...I know Sister Mingmei." Kuroki Jin sighed tiredly, "I will pay attention to my own emotions, and I will not mess around with this kind of thing."
He is the type of person who is nervous before the exam but remains calm in the exam room.
"That's good." Although Miyano Akemi has been calm and calm since the incident, it was her sister who was arrested. How could she not be nervous or impatient.
But more than 20 years of experience have taught her that being nervous and impatient is useless. What is most needed in this situation is stability, calmness, and solving problems rather than being solved by them.
In her eyes, Kuroki Jin was just a little kid who had just grown up, less than two years older than her sister, and he belonged to a vulnerable group who would have been arrested together if they had been together at that time.
Before setting off, Miyano Akemi closed the car door for him.
