Chapter 9 (Catching Bugs)
Twenty million yen.
The poor Kurokawa Akiho was stunned. It was the first time in his life that he saw so many zeros.
If you take on this investment, all problems will be solved.
"Answer it!" This must be answered.
【I can’t answer this call!!!】
【Hell is ahead! 】
The moment Kurokawa Akishige took on the investment, barrages of comments began to appear to stop him, and floating fonts flashed rapidly.
[Oh no, it's over.]
【You are confused, kid! 】
【The Suzuki Demolition Office has begun. 】
What?
Kurokawa Akishige's head was full of question marks. How could the peaceful barrage of comments just now change in an instant? However, the joy of getting a 20 million investment did not fade at all.
Twenty million yen soon rolled in. With the deficit now reversed, Kurokawa Akishige felt his back straightened, allowing Tosuka Tadara to rest assured in the hospital.
only.
What is the Suzuki Demolition Office…?
With a head full of question marks, Kurokawa Akishige looked at the barrage of comments, his expression gradually becoming solemn.
All the facilities invested by the Suzuki Group were eventually bombed?
He looked at the 20 million yen on the financial screen, hesitation in his eyes.
The amusement park has been bombed once, so it shouldn't be unlucky enough to have it happen a second time.
Besides, there is no such mysterious thing. The barrage is definitely exaggerating.
Kurokawa Akifumi comforted himself and used the newly acquired funds to renovate the most crucial roller coaster. After the task was assigned, the construction team members began to move their small ladders and began to work.
Once the roller coaster is renovated, it should meet the opening standards. All that's left is to continue operating the park while renovating and expanding it, perform final maintenance on the Ferris wheel and the park affected by the explosion, and then wait for the star rating to rise, and then the mission will be complete.
It looks incredibly simple.
The most important thing at the moment is to hire employees. The park still has too few staff members. There are only six employees in total. Excluding the weak Toshu Duoduoliang, there is not even enough staff to form a performance team.
Akiho Kurokawa opened the employee information, found the recruitment and started posting recruitment information. He checked the necessary conditions and clicked recruit.
After sending out the recruitment information, you just need to wait one to two working days for people to come for interviews.
This is too easy.
He couldn't help but sigh.
After completing the hospitalization procedures, Totsu Tadara was found with a pale face and an IV drip. His flaxen hair and gentle smile made him look extremely broken.
After all, it was caused by his own fault, so Kurokawa Akiho felt a little guilty.
"Don't worry about work, just live here well first," he said.
Jutsu Tadara apologized, "I'm sorry for causing trouble to the principal."
Even though it wasn't his fault, he still apologized gently.
Kurokawa Akiho felt even more guilty.
Looking at the principal who looked guilty, Jutsu Tadara suddenly said, "Can I ask you a favor?"
Kurokawa Akishige came back to his senses and said, "You say."
Juzuka Tadara: "Can you bring my camera with you next time you come?"
Thinking something serious was going on, Kurokawa Akiwa was stunned for a moment, then quickly said, "No problem."
After the food poisoning incident came to a brief end, Kurokawa Akishige needed to go back to deal with other things.
The hospital corridors had a unique smell of disinfectant, and the inpatient environment was very quiet.
Suddenly, there was a loud noise from the door of the next ward, followed by a harsh sound like nails scratching the door, and even a faint cry for help.
Almost instantly, a new dark red task box popped up in front of Kurokawa Akishige.
[Congratulations to the player for triggering a new side quest.
As the director of a park, you should be full of love, positive, kind and friendly qualities. Please stop the emergency happening in front of you.
Mission: Solve a murder case in a hospital ward.
Reward: Red and Black reputation system.]
New tasks that are not part of the amusement park.
Kurokawa Akishige pursed his lips and turned his gaze towards the ward where there had been no movement since the sound was made.
The smooth floor made a crisp sound when it was stepped on. Kurokawa Akishige's slender figure stood in front of the ward door and raised his hand to push open the closed door.
With the slight sound of the door opening, what came into view was a body lying on the ground, obviously no longer breathing.
He frowned and chose not to go forward and destroy the crime scene. Instead, he took out his cell phone and called the police.
At this moment, the sound of talking and walking came from behind.
Yuta Hotani looked at the young man standing at the door of the ward and asked in confusion, "Who are you?"
The few people who were originally joking and chatting also noticed Kurokawa Akiwa standing at the door of the ward, their eyes full of confusion.
Kurokawa Akiho tilted his head and took in the group of people approaching. His gaze paused as he passed by one place. Among the group, the short Edogawa Conan stood out, being only as tall as a person's knees.
The police call was answered.
"Hello, I want to call the police." said Kurokawa Akishige.
Edogawa Conan's pupils suddenly contracted. He quickly ran forward and saw the corpse in the ward.
"Conan?" Mao Lilan was a little confused.
Following closely behind, Kogoro Mouri frowned with a serious expression on his face. He stepped forward to check the body and confirmed that it was dead.
The people who were traveling with him were a little confused about the situation and followed him forward. After seeing the scene in the ward, someone screamed.
"Miho?! How could this happen?!"
*
When Megure Jusan arrived at the scene and saw the familiar Maori Kogoro, his eyes turned into half-moon eyes: "Brother Maori, you are not another witness, are you?"
Maori Kogoro supported his waist with one hand, facing Megure Jusan's Tao Kan, stretched out his hand and pointed behind him and said helplessly: "I'm sorry to disappoint you, Officer Megure, this time it wasn't me. It was the kid behind."
Megure Jusan looked over and found that it was also an acquaintance.
"It's you."
The unfortunate amusement park director.
Kurokawa Akifumi greeted Megure Jusan with a smile on his face: "Long time no see, Officer Megure."
After a brief greeting, Kurokawa Akishige said that he came to check because he heard a cry for help.
The deceased was named Shimakawa Miho, an ordinary office worker. The person traveling with Maori Kogoro was her colleague, the male named Yasutani Yuta. The remaining short-haired girl was named Yoshinaga Kaoru, and the long-haired one was Kuwashima Asami. They were good friends who had known each other since their school days.
This time they gathered here to celebrate the discharge of Shimakawa Miho from the hospital after she recovered from a serious illness.
The cause of death of the deceased, Shimakawa Miho, was drug poisoning. She was the only one in the ward at the time, and the most likely suspect was Kurokawa Akiwa, the first eyewitness.
"Then this case is very simple." Maori Kogoro touched his chin, thought for a moment, and then pointed directly at Kurokawa Akiwa. "The surrounding windows are all sealed. The entire ward is like a secret room. The murderer must be Mr. Kurokawa Akiwa."
Conan Edogawa looked at Kogoro Mouri who was making random inferences with a frown on his face.
Please.
Kurokawa Akiwa, who was thought to be the murderer, blinked.
[I'm dying of laughter, hahahaha]
It's such a classic.
[The young headmaster just wanted to complete a task, what's wrong with him? Hahahaha. ]
[Place your bets, choose one from three.]
"Although I am the most suspicious, I don't recognize this lady at all." Kurokawa Akishige explained.
"Ah? Don't you know him?" Kogoro Mouri touched the back of his head.
All the food residues in the deceased's room were taken for inspection by Takagi Shigeru. The results came out quickly and no traces of *** were found after the inspection.
Especially the cupcake that was closest in time to the deceased, which fell on him. It was obvious that he ate it at the end, but there was still no sign of □□.
At the same time, the police also found a suicide note among the deceased's belongings.
All the evidence points to suicide.
This clear directionality is so strange.
Edogawa Conan was in deep thought, wondering where the incongruity lay.
Asami Kuwashima looked at the suicide note she had found, crying in disbelief: "How could it be, how could Miho commit suicide?"
Ryonaga Xun suppressed his sadness and handed a tissue to the crying Kuwashima Asami: "Miho was clearly preparing to celebrate her discharge from the hospital this morning, and even put on such expensive lipstick."
Lipstick?
Edogawa Conan suddenly looked up, took away the deceased's photo while Takagi Wataru was not paying attention, looked at it carefully, and then quietly moved to the deceased's drawer. He quickly opened the drawer and took out a lipstick.
I sniffed it closely and there was no strange smell, just the scent of cosmetics.
Kurokawa Akiwa squatted silently behind Edogawa Conan, watching the young detective thinking intently. Some bad thoughts came to his mind: "Did you find anything?"
A soft voice suddenly sounded behind his ear. Edogawa Conan, who was thinking, shuddered suddenly, as if he was frightened. He opened his eyes from afar and met the smiling eyes of Kurokawa Akifusa.
He swallowed, turned around, hid the hand holding the lipstick behind his back, and smiled mischievously: "It's the headmaster, Uncle Maori said he found a new clue, so he asked me to confirm it quietly."
"Oh." Kurokawa Akishige stretched out the last syllable. He looked up and saw Maori Kogoro, who had a new suspect. He looked away and said with lingering thought: "So that's how it is. Conan really is a reliable little detective."
Edogawa Conan's body stiffened for a moment. He felt as if Kurokawa Akiwa had discovered something. He scratched the back of his head with a red face, as if he was embarrassed by the praise: "No."
"I'll go deliver the things to Uncle Maori first. Goodbye, young principal."
After saying that, he ran away.
"I have completely seen through the murderer's modus operandi!" Kogoro Mouri shouted loudly, instantly attracting everyone's attention.
"The murderer is you, Mr. Yuta Hotani!"
[His process of elimination has always been effective.]
[Anesthetic Needle +39]
【The Wuhu main film begins.】
Conan Edogawa, who had seen through the truth, raised his hand and pointed the anesthetic needle at Kogoro Mouri.
Kurokawa Akiho naturally noticed this as well, and he was a little confused as to what method Conan was going to use to solve the case. Then he noticed that the anesthetic needle had expertly shot Kogoro Maori in the back of the neck, and the latter began to fall asleep very skillfully, swaying a few times before accurately sitting down against the wall.
Kurokawa Akiho's blue eyes were filled with interest.
Is this the way to solve the case?
