Chapter 1721 1721 [It only takes a moment to learn bad things] Please give me your monthly vote o(

Kinoshita Yoko didn't expect that things would suddenly take such a big turn. Her eyes widened in surprise: "It's actually like this... Should we call the police?"

Jiang Xia shook his head: "Before we figure out why the kidnappers knew that Mr. Wu Ju called the police last time, it's best not to get the police involved."

Yoko Kinoshita: "Then what should we do?"

"To find out the inside story, it's best to quietly go to Mr. Takeru's area to check out the situation." As he said that, Jiang Xia lowered his head and looked at Conan.

Conan: "..."

He silently covered his stomach: "Oh, my stomach suddenly hurts!"

Kinoshita Yoko was startled: "Shall I take you to the hospital?"

Conan shook his head: "No, just borrow a toilet - I remember that Uncle Wuju's house is nearby. I'll go take a look."

As he said that, he ran over quickly.

Kinoshita Yoko stared at his back in stunned silence, and suddenly understood: "..." This child is really... so useful!

No wonder Jiang Xia loves to take him with her wherever she goes.

She and Jiang Xia looked at each other and trotted to catch the child who was about to break into a house in a tacit understanding.



Not long after, the three people arrived at President Takei's luxurious villa.

In addition to being his home, this place also serves as an office. Sometimes there are customers coming and going, but the door is just closed and not locked.

Conan turned the doorknob and found it was unlocked, so he happily walked in.

In order to catch the naughty children running around, Jiang Xia and Kinoshita Yoko were forced to enter.

Kinoshita Yoko held the camera and followed Jiang Xia closely. Looking at the unfamiliar furnishings around her, she felt both uneasy about breaking into a house and some instinctive excitement, and her heart beat violently.

Jiang Xia looked back at her and noticed her out-of-place nervousness. She paused and said, "Why don't you go outside and wait for me?"

I almost forgot that Ms. Yoko is a star, so it would not be good if there was evidence of someone breaking into someone's house.

However, Yoko Kinoshita shook his head, his voice was very soft, and his expression was serious: "We have already sneaked here, how can I escape? I also want to help you rescue the hostages." - This is a just thing. And it sounds so interesting.

It was a scene she had never experienced before, and she wanted to follow it.

Jiang Xia: "...Okay then. If there is any movement around, you should immediately find a room and hide. If you don't get photographed by them, there will be no evidence."

Kinoshita Yoko listened carefully to the suggestion and nodded seriously.

Halfway through the click, I suddenly felt that something was not quite right: they were obviously a righteous detective and an equally righteous detective assistant, so why was the conversation between her and Jiang Xia so strange, "leaving no evidence"... It was almost like a criminal gang.

imparting experience.

Kinoshita Yoko paused, then shook his head vigorously: How could it be a criminal gang? This is just a necessary method to save people. Write it down, maybe it can be used in the future.

In front of the two of them, Kudo-san looked much more natural. Not only was he not sneaky at all, but he felt as comfortable walking in the corridor as if he were at home - if Conan was the only one here, he would even try to hide to avoid encountering him.

He was in danger. But now, Jiang Xia was following behind. Conan always felt that he should worry about others first before his own safety.



After all, they had visited once yesterday, so the three of them followed their general impressions and quickly found Katsuhiko Takei's study.

Before reaching the door, I heard the secretary's voice coming from inside.

Different from the weak and haggard look yesterday, Secretary Hanai sounded very angry at this time: "Do you want to watch Naoko die?"

The three people looked at each other, stopped, and listened quietly with their ears raised.

Katsuhiko Takei paced back and forth in the study, his anxious footsteps revealing his inner irritability. He did not answer the secretary's question.

The secretary became even more anxious: "If you don't prepare real money this time and the kidnapper finds out, he will definitely not give us another chance, and Naoko will really die in his hands!"

Katsuhiko Takei stopped by the window, frowned and said: "But, you also saw the situation yesterday. After falling into such a deep river, is Naoko really still alive? If the kidnapper is using fake photos to defraud money...

…”

"She must be alive!" The secretary grabbed the photo sent by the kidnapper on the table, "Look at the newspaper next to Naoko. This is the latest issue of the newspaper today!"

In the photo, a female high school student is kneeling on the ground against the wall, with a rope tied around her body and a newspaper on her lap.

Both the date and the news are indeed fresh, which shows that Takei Naoko did survive the incident of falling into the river.

Outside the door, Conan scratched his head curiously and secretly winked at Jiang Xia.

Jiang Xia: "?"

His eyes seemed to be unable to communicate, so Conan had no choice but to pull him to squat down and whisper in a low voice: "Ask me to come up, I want to see that photo."

There is a row of windows at the top of this room, one of which is open for ventilation, from which you can see the situation inside the house.

Jiang Xia glanced up. Although he felt that he might not be able to see the photo if he climbed up, Conan had said so and he didn't mind joining in the fun. So he grabbed Conan's leg and lifted it up hard, and Conan successfully reached the window.

forward.

The president was looking out the window at this time, and the secretary was looking at him from behind. Neither of them looked at the door.

Seeing the silence that the president didn't want to face, Secretary Hanai became more and more excited: "Naoko must have been waiting for you to save her. Are you really going to die without saving her!"

President Wuju's breathing became heavy and he was silent for a long time. He finally made up his mind: "I have other uses for the money. If I give it to the kidnappers in vain, all my hard work over the years will be ruined. Do you understand?"

The secretary was stunned: "Money and daughter, do you really think money is more important?"

"Of course Naoko is more important! But now I am in urgent need of this money. Do I have to lose my entire career for the kidnapper's promise that I don't know whether it is true or not?"

President Takei waved his hands excitedly, obviously having his own considerations: "And after what happened last time, the kidnapper must feel that I dare not give him counterfeit money this time. He has a guilty conscience and must not dare to count the money at the scene and get the money.

I will release him. This way I don’t have to lose my life and my money. This is the truly correct solution!”

Yoko Kinoshita: "..." It sounds like it's quite profitable, but will the kidnappers really follow such a beautiful script?

Conan heard something strange: What on earth is President Takei doing with that money? His company's development seems to have been quite stable, and he can make up the amount demanded by the kidnappers. It's not that he is completely unable to make money, but Katsuhiko Takei's

He looked as if missing the money would kill him.

Hearing that it was difficult to maintain balance in the corner, Conan swayed as he was distracted and instinctively held the window next to him.

Unexpectedly, the window was a little rusty, and when it was pushed like this, it made an embarrassing "squeak" sound.
