Mediterranean flipped through his schedule and sighed: "It's the same this time. We need that software urgently, but he hid so hard that we couldn't even find him."
Another younger person complained to Jiang Xia: "Actually, we have tried to ask the police for help before, but the police said that this kind of thing is not their responsibility and asked us not to waste police resources - now only you can help us."
Conan: "..." It turned out that the missing person ran away on his own, which was different from what he expected - he just heard that the missing person was a programmer, and he also imagined whether the organization happened to kidnap the person.
Gone. In my impression, the black organization does interact with many programmers.
But now...
Alas, it seems that he is overthinking.
But being idle is also idle. It is better to follow Jiang Xia and solve boring cases than to stay at home and do nothing.
With this thought in mind, Conan did not leave. He sat next to him and began to think about how to find a person who had disappeared voluntarily.
Seeing that Jiang Xia did not refuse, Mediterranean Sea quickly agreed that the young detective had accepted the commission. He hurriedly took out a business card and said to Jiang Xia: "If you find him, please contact me as soon as possible."
"What do you mean by contacting you as soon as possible?" The mushroom-headed man next to him was shocked when he heard this, and held his hand. "Our company has the largest investment, so when you find someone, you should be the first to tell me!"
The young man on the other side was also anxious: "We were the first to find that guy. First come, first served. I am the one who should know first!"
Jiang Xia drank juice and waited leisurely for them to quarrel.
After waiting for a while, he found that the three of them stopped arguing, and then he started to ask more about the situation: "Aren't you from the same company?"
"Of course not. Who would want to be in the same company as these two guys who rely on their old age to sell off their old age!" The fashionably dressed man sighed and said to Jiang Xia:
"I am a member of a Go game development company. I am looking for this programmer this time because I want to customize a Go software."
Mediterranean squeezed him away and showed his presence in front of the detective: "I asked him to design chess software."
Mushroom Head also took the opportunity to hand over his business card: "Our company wants shogi software."
Jiang Xia took the three business cards handed to him, took out three more of his own business cards and put them in their hands.
Conan couldn't help but ask: "He only has one person, but you customized three pieces of software at the same time... Can he really complete such a large amount of work?"
"Of course not!" the young man said excitedly, "That's why we have to find him and ask him clearly! Taking on so many jobs at the same time is a complete violation of the contract - you don't know, that guy usually only takes one job and then yells.
I was shouting that I was tired, so I took on three items at the same time this time... If I hadn't cooperated with him before, I would have really suspected that he wanted to make money and run away."
"No doubt, that guy definitely wants to run away." Mushroom Head sighed, "What a shameless bastard. When I signed the contract with him, he could actually say as if nothing had happened, 'I'm not with any other company now.
Don't worry when you sign the contract, I will definitely finish it on time this time."
"That's what he told me too." Mediterranean shook his head, "This scoundrel is simply ruining the reputation of programmers."
Jiang Xia: "Then when did you know that he had three boats?"
"Uh..." The detective's choice of words was a little strange, but very appropriate.
Mediterranean scratched his head and glanced at the notebook he carried with him: "Because of this - three days ago, the three of us received this video from him at the same time."
He clicked the mouse and turned the notebook to Jiang Xia.
On the screen, a video began to play - in the video was a thin man with a high hairline, who was the programmer in the photo just now.
The rogue programmer was sitting on a swivel chair at this time. He crossed his legs and spread his hands towards the screen: "It's so tiring to work on three software at the same time. I can't stand it anymore - you also know that my heart has been beating."
Not very good. So I decided to put aside all my work temporarily and find a place to have a good vacation."
Conan looked at the video and was suddenly startled: "It turns out to be this person. No wonder he looks familiar to me - he was wearing glasses in the photo just now, but I didn't recognize him."
Jiang Xia glanced at him: "Have you seen it?"
Conan nodded: "I remember his name is Taku Itakura. He is very good at making CG. His name is on the production list of many well-known movies."
"That's right, that's him." The fashionable young man said, "Even though he looks like a scoundrel in the video, this guy actually cares about his image. He will put on contact lenses every time he goes out - no wonder this little brother
I didn’t recognize him just now.”
The mushroom head lamented: "But three years ago, he had a problem with his eyes. Since then, he has stopped touching CG-related things and only focused on tinkering with those software - little brother, you were only three years ago.
You're four years old, you know these things."
Conan's heart skipped a beat: Don't talk nonsense, you guy! This is the Amuro Detective Agency full of surveillance cameras and bugs!
While sweating profusely, he laughed out loud and put the blame on an innocent female high school student: "My sister is a fan of his and sometimes watches his interviews, so I know him."
As he spoke, he thought of an idea and changed the subject: "Could this kind of celebrity have really been kidnapped by someone, and the kidnapper forced him to shoot the video to make others give up looking for him?"
Mediterranean laughed and said: "Kid, you have watched too many kidnapping dramas - who would kidnap a programmer when they are free?"
Conan: "..." Who says there isn't? The black organization must have secretly kidnapped many people.
The mushroom head touched his chin and actually agreed with Conan's casual guess: "It's not impossible - I remember two years ago, when I went to Itakura Taku's office to urge him, I saw a man with a beard.
, a sturdy man with a Kansai accent."
He looked at the other two fellow sufferers for verification: "You have seen it, too. I remember that during the Mantian software launch conference, the big man from Kansai also went there, and he seems to be dead."
"?!"
As soon as these words came out, Conan almost jumped up in shock - if the adjective "a burly man with a beard and a Kansai accent" can't explain anything, then "the people who died at the Manten software launch conference"
, which left a deep impression on him.
Conan: "..." If I remember correctly, that was a man in black who was sneaking around, carrying a briefcase, and was planning to make a deal with someone.
He wanted to follow him and take a peek, but when he was halfway along, he was stabbed by an anonymous person who suddenly appeared.
When I woke up again, I heard that there had been an explosion at the Mantiantian venue - the deceased was the guy who was highly suspected of being a black organization.
