Chapter 1318 1326 [Where is my Qiancheng Piaotan? ]
While waiting for Conan's test results, they couldn't help but talk about what had just happened.
Hattori Heiji had a bad feeling when he heard the explosion from afar. He was worried that his two colleagues would suddenly be blown into the sky, and his mind was always on "searching for survivors".
Now that the matter has come to an end for the time being, he slowly came back to his senses and looked at Inspector Otaki next to him: "How did you mobilize the forces so quickly? And you found me immediately after the explosion..."
Inspector Otaki heard the suspicion in his tone and smiled awkwardly: "In fact, you may have guessed that the 'Tokugawa Ieyasu' is the leader of the serial robbery and murder case 13 years ago. They are too sensitive to the police's presence, so your father came up with a clever trick - to stimulate you so that you will not use the police's power to go deeper into the case while being angry with the police, and use it as our cover."
"..." Hattori Heiji thought of the innocent punch he received, and his fist could not help but harden: cunning father, actually treated him like this! When he got home later, he must complain to his mother.
After a pause, he felt something was wrong: "How do you know that 'Tokugawa Ieyasu' is the leader of that gang? We probably haven't told you our reasoning yet - did you secretly install a bug in me?"
As he said this, he couldn't help but start turning over on himself.
Seeing Jiang Xia watching silently, Hattori Heiji also called him to join in: "Search for any extra eavesdropping devices on you!"
Inspector Otaki waved his hands hastily, "We didn't do that. In fact, Minister Toyama heard a conversation between several people in the tour group under the castle tower and recognized the voice of 'Tokugawa Ieyasu'. Thirteen years ago, one of the victims had recorded his voice on the answering machine at home."
Suzuki Sonoko was a little surprised: "After thirteen years, he can still tell them apart immediately. You are worthy of being the Minister of Criminal Affairs."
Hattori Heiji muttered, "It must be that after the charred corpse was found a while ago, he listened to the recording again at the scene. Really, he had so many clues, but he kept them secret..."
…
The surrounding environment was bustling. Jiang Xia leaned back in his chair, listening but unable to help being distracted.
He was still thinking about the shikigami on Shikaobing's legs, and was really curious about how many there were.
Suzuki Sonoko turned her head and looked at him, and was slightly stunned: "Are you okay?"
...Why do they look like they are staring blankly at the sky? I wonder if they got a concussion from the explosion. Damn the robbers.
While thinking, Suzuki Sonoko reached out.
Jiang Xia came back to his senses and shook his head: "It's okay, I just got tired from floating in the water just now."
As he was speaking, he felt the cell phone hidden in his body suddenly vibrate.
Jiang Xia stood up and said, "I'm going to the bathroom."
…
He did go to the restroom, but he didn't go in. Instead, he found a place near the restroom where there was no one and no cameras.
Then he took out his organization's special phone, looked at it, and called back: "Hello?"
After hearing his voice, and not that of a police officer or medical staff, Gin spoke sarcastically: "Looks like I don't need to send anyone to the morgue to retrieve your body."
"Why are you cursing your hardworking and brave colleagues for no reason?" Jiang Xia condemned his choice of words. "I just saw that the situation was appropriate and rushed to do something. As long as you are well prepared, floating down the river for a while will not kill anyone. If you don't believe me, try Vodka."
Vodka, who was eavesdropping, said: "!"
The cat who was originally eating gin said: "!"
After hesitating for 0.1 seconds, the cat turned silently.
——Although gin is not bad, ice cream is more worthy of cherishing.
…
Gin was used to the cat's erratic and sneaky behavior and ignored it.
As for Uzo... since this guy still has the energy to cheat Vodka, and was talking and laughing on the boat just now, I guess it's nothing serious.
So Gin started talking about his own big story.
He said in a cold voice: "Before you said that the matter of 'Thousand Piao Basket' was left to you. In the end, Thousand Piao Basket turned into a small jar of gold coins?"
The gold coins of the Edo period do sound attractive, but their value is far less than that of the Senjyoutan.
Jiang Xia then remembered this matter: "Oh, you didn't forget to send someone to get it, did you?"
"..." Gin was silent for a moment. No matter how small a mosquito is, it is still meat. Besides, a can of gold coins is much more valuable than a mosquito. An efficiency-conscious cadre would never let it go.
He didn't say anything, which was considered an admission.
Jiang Xia understood: "That's good. I just want to remind you that the police will soon be there. If you don't evacuate in time, you might run into them."
"You don't need to remind me of this." Gin suddenly realized that the topic had gone off track, "I'm asking about Chishinari Hyotan."
Jiang Xia sighed faintly, like a storyteller telling a tragedy: "Unfortunately, in this complicated story of grievances spanning 13 years, there is probably no such thing as a happy ending.
"As for me, I did say that I would handle this matter, so now it has been perfectly resolved. All the truth has been revealed, the missing members of the organization have been confirmed dead, the scumbags who exposed the organization have been dealt with, and the financial loopholes have been filled by that gang... The police are satisfied, the organization is satisfied, and I am satisfied too - why do you still have questions?"
There was a creaking sound from the receiver, and Gin's phone, which was already on the verge of being scrapped, was suddenly one step closer to being scrapped.
His voice was so gloomy that it seemed like water could drip from it: "...Are you playing word games with me?"
Jiang Xia cleared his throat and said in a serious tone: "How should I put it. It is still unknown whether the Qiancheng gourd basket exists now. Maybe it has been accidentally broken by someone's shaking hand and completely buried in the dust of history - so don't mention it. I found a very interesting person. That is our real treasure. You will not be disappointed."
Gin thought of Uzo's unusual behavior tonight and realized that his new target might not be simple. He reluctantly became interested: "Yes..."
Just as he said this, Gin remembered the disgusting user confidentiality clause of Anonymous and was silent for a moment. He changed his statement without involving "games": "The woman on the boat just now, is she an international wanted criminal?"
"Yeah." Jiang Xia obviously knew how to avoid it, "Have you heard of 'Scorbing'?"
The database in Gin's mind was surprisingly extensive. He thought about it and actually had some impression of it: "The thief who likes to snipe the right eye?"
"That's right." Jiang Xia snapped his fingers and said naturally, "As usual, leave the matter to me. If there is anything I need you to do, I will let you know in advance."
Gin recalled the scene on the boat he had just seen from afar: "..." It seemed that this energetic young cadre had found a good new toy.
