Chapter 63 Threat Letter from the Metropolitan Police Department

 At this point, a murder case that was not complicated came to an end.

As Sato Ami was taken away by the police, the blockade of the izakaya was lifted and all witnesses present could leave.

After this commotion, Kudo Shinichi knew that he had missed the ribbon-cutting ceremony of the Westwood Building. Fortunately, he had no intention of attending. His goal was to have the movie premiere that evening.

It was almost evening, and there was still a long way to go from the izakaya to the Nishiki Building. Yujiang decided to start from here and go directly to the Nishiki Building to meet Gin.

He didn't disturb anyone, tried to minimize his presence, and left the izakaya with the flow of people.

However, behind him, there is a pair of eyes that are always paying attention to him.

"Xinyi, what are you looking at?" Mao Lilan asked strangely.

Kudo Shinichi withdrew his gaze, shook his head and said, "There is a strange feeling about that person."

"What strange feeling?"

"I'm not sure, it's probably..." Halfway through the words, Kudo Shinichi paused in embarrassment.

As the only son of the famous detective novelist Kudo Yusaku, Kudo Shinichi has shown extraordinary reasoning ability since he was very young. He also followed his father in Hawaii to systematically learn relevant professional knowledge, and has a knowledge reserve that far exceeds that of his peers.

.

These factors have given Kudo Shinichi his extraordinary vision and judgment. Under normal circumstances, he does not even need evidence and can find the murderer just by intuition.

For example, in this cyanide murder case, clues and evidence told Kudo Shinichi that the deceased was poisoned by tetrodotoxin, but his intuition pointed to Sato Ami, who seemed to have nothing to do with the case.

However, Kudo Shinichi found that he could not see through the person just now.

He only knew that the young man was not simple, and gave him a very dangerous feeling, but when he wanted to pursue it, he found that the previous feeling disappeared in an instant, as if everything was just his illusion.

On the other side, Mumu Shisan, who was relieved that the murder case was solved, received a call, and his face suddenly darkened:

"I know, I've sent people to raise money."

Hmm? Raise money?

Kudo Shinichi pricked up his ears and eavesdropped on the call between Megure Thirteen and the Metropolitan Police Department.

After Megure Thirteen hung up the phone, he was startled by the sudden appearance of Kudo Shinichi from behind, and his heart almost jumped out of his chest: "Shin, Shinichi, Xiaolan, haven't you left yet?"

"Did a kidnapping happen?" Kudo Shinichi asked.

"No!" Mumu Shisan quickly denied, but then he stuttered, "It's a matter with the Metropolitan Police Department. The case is over. You and Xiaolan should leave as soon as possible."

If Kudo Shinichi was so easy to be ignored, he wouldn't have become a famous figure in the school at a young age.

On the contrary, his curiosity, which was only 20%, suddenly surged to 120%.

Kudo Shinichi thought for a moment and guessed: "If it's not a kidnapping case, it's a provocation or threat from criminals to the Metropolitan Police Department, right?"

Megure Thirteen had a wry smile on his face: "He is indeed the son of Brother Yusaku."

Although he did not directly answer Kudo Shinichi's question, his emotion was enough to explain everything.

Ten minutes later——

"That is to say, the Metropolitan Police Department received a threatening letter saying that he had prepared a large number of time bombs and asked the police to prepare 5 billion yen??"

"Yes, that's it." Megure Thirteen sighed, "And he also set a time. The Metropolitan Police Department must give him the money before eight o'clock in the evening, otherwise the bomb will detonate, and hundreds of thousands of people will suffer.

."

Kudo Shinichi pondered: "In addition to five billion, does he have any other requirements?"

"No more."

No?

This is strange.

Five billion is not a small amount. Even if the Metropolitan Police Department puts all its efforts into it, I am afraid that it will not be able to raise so much cash in just a few hours.

Not to mention five billion yen in cash, can the prisoner really take away the money without alerting anyone?

Thinking about it this way, I'm afraid there is not just one criminal.

"Does his request have to be in Japanese yen?" Kudo Shinichi asked again.

"There is no specified currency in the threatening letter, but even if it were all converted into US dollars, it would still be 40 million." Mu Mu Shisan was confused, "There is no way we can prepare so much money for him."

Therefore, the Metropolitan Police Department has considered raising money as an alternative from the beginning. If the identity of the criminal and the location of the bomb can be found before 8 pm, they will not have to be so passive.

"How did the threatening letter get to the Metropolitan Police Department? Can you let me see it?"

"My colleague found the threatening letter in the mailbox this morning. Let me take you to see it." Megure Shisan subconsciously agreed to Kudo Shinichi's request.

But soon he looked suspicious.

Wait, that's not right. Kudo Shinichi is a child who has never passed the stage of voice change. How can he bring a child to come into contact with important evidence?

Unfortunately, the words he spoke were like water being poured out. Due to his relationship with Kudo Yusaku, it was difficult for Megure Thirteen to change his words at this time. He could only ask his subordinates to drive him and Kudo Shinichi back to the police station.

Hall.

Thinking about it from another angle, this may not necessarily be a bad thing. Maybe Kudo Shinichi can tell Kudo Yusaku about the case, and Kudo Yusaku may have a solution.

……

"Is there still no news?" Zhu Fu Jingguang asked Jianggu Ling, who was pacing in the room for the 17th time.

Rei Fukutani is in the Security Bureau of the National Police Agency and has authority over him, so it is natural that Rei Fukutani is in charge of the operation against Yu Jiang.

But judging from his expression, it seems that no progress has been made in such a long investigation.

Zhu Fu Jingguang was inevitably a little annoyed, but he still comforted his companions in a good voice: "It doesn't matter, not being able to find Yu Jiang's whereabouts will not affect our mission. I will continue to pay attention to the movements of other students here, as long as they are not allowed to rush

It will be no problem to find Yujiang before us."

"Although there is no news about Yujie, I got a key piece of information." Toru Amuro said in a low voice, "The public security has been tracking and tracing for half a month, and we just learned that Gin, the leader of the organization's JPN action team, will meet with someone from

Members of the organization meet."

Gin is a senior member of the organization who has been active in Japan all year round. Zhufu Jingguang is no stranger to this name, not to mention that he came to the training camp not long ago to give them a "unique" lesson - referring to the practice specifically targeted at Yujiang.

Lesson.

Zhu Fu Jingguang frowned: "Who is this member from the organization?"

"It's not clear yet. I heard that he came to give money to Gin."

"Ah, send money?"

Zhu Fu Jingguang was stunned.

The word money seems to appear a little too frequently recently. First it was an internship task focusing on transactions, then Yujiang absconded with money, and now Gin...

Well, wait!

Yujiang, who is full of doubts, is about to meet Gin, who is a member of the organization who sent money... It seems a coincidence that the two are together.

"Zero." Zhufu Jingguang called blankly, "Do you think the person who came to give money to Gin is Yu Jiang?"
