Chapter 1438 1446 [The villain who stole the information] Ask for monthly vote o(〃'▽'〃)o
Amuro Toru: "..." But it's not a big problem. As long as he can get the person into the police station alive, the information in Dr. Kanda's hands will be his sooner or later.
...I don’t know if I can dig out any information about “Uzo” from him this time.
…
After sending an email to Yuya Kazami, adding another item to his subordinate's busy schedule.
Amuro Toru turned his head and looked at another subordinate nearby.
Thinking of Jiang Xia's instinctive act of saving people just now, he sighed quietly: From the angle where Jiang Xia was standing just now, he should not be able to see the switch status of the gun safety at all, but he dared to rush forward to block the gun... This kind of selfless behavior is really incompatible with the organization.
Toru Amuro: “…” When I have time, I have to teach Jiang Xia how to properly confront an armed gangster. Blocking the gun is the least cost-effective action.
At this time, Kanda Jōji, who was firmly controlled by the police nearby, finally gave up resistance.
He fell to his knees with hatred in his eyes: "A few years ago, I was short of money. Yoshimura found out that I was short of money and taught me how to trade stocks. I lost a lot of money and my life became increasingly difficult. At this time, Yoshimura lent a hand and taught me a way to make money - he asked me to use my position to smuggle some drugs.
"I knew it was illegal, so I only planned to use this method as an emergency measure. But after doing it a few times, when I tactfully suggested that I quit, Yoshimura suddenly produced evidence of my illegal activities.
"He asked me to continue to help him with smuggling, and said that as long as I listened to him obediently, wealth and glory would be within my reach... Ha, but I knew it was just a bottomless pit. All the profits from smuggling were in his hands. I had to do whatever he asked me to do. All the wealth and glory were his, and I had nothing!
"I've had enough of this nightmare-like life. If I want to return to the carefree life I had at the beginning, I can only kill him. I originally thought that this would be a very difficult process, but he seemed to have encountered some problems recently, his whereabouts were sneaky, and he took the initiative to move here. I found an opportunity now."
"Hmm..." Inspector Megure has heard too many confessions from criminals.
Compared to the various reasons that made him cry, the criminal in front of him did not make him feel too much. Compared to Dr. Kanda's unfortunate experience, he grasped another key point: "So Dr. Yoshimura, here is evidence of your illegal smuggling, and you also admitted your smuggling behavior?"
“?!”
Doctor Kanda froze, "No, no, I..."
Miwako Sato recalled the thrilling scene just now, flexed her fingers, and added, "There is also illegal possession of a gun and attempted shooting. Your illegal behaviors are really diverse."
Doctor Kanda was slow to regret: "Wait, the gun belonged to Yoshida. He wanted to shoot me with the gun, but I knocked him out, so the gun ended up in my hands!"
"Nut him out? So you admit that you were the one who did the murder?"
"…#"
Officer Takagi held Dr. Kanda tightly. Just now he was worried that he might suddenly attack and hurt someone, but now he was worried that the doctor would hit his head on the ground and die to prove his integrity.
He said hurriedly, "Go to the Metropolitan Police Department and tell them the details. We will thoroughly investigate the source of the gun. Calm down and don't do anything impulsive."
…
While handling the scene, the police took the suspect and physical evidence back to the Metropolitan Police Department.
However, soon, Inspector Megure, who was struggling over whether to work overtime tonight or leave the matter for tomorrow, received some not-so-good news.
Sato Miwako, who had just taken the deceased's laptop away, came back at this time: "Inspector, the data cannot be retrieved."
The laptop would not turn on at all, and after checking, it was not the power supply that was the problem. The technician on duty fiddled with it for a long time with dark circles under his eyes, and found that the data inside was completely destroyed.
"He is working on repairing it, but it seems that there is little hope at the moment." Officer Sato frowned. "Could it be that Yoshimura had a premonition that something bad would happen to him, so he destroyed the data. Or maybe an accomplice discovered that he was being targeted, destroyed the data in advance, and then secretly assisted the murderer in silencing him? - If so, the scale of the smuggling network behind Yoshimura may be beyond our imagination. But..."
The police originally thought that they could use the deceased in this case to find two or three people who helped him with smuggling and lead to several other criminals.
But now it seems that the other party responded so promptly, maybe the matter is bigger than they thought. Unfortunately, the thread in their hands has been broken, no matter what is hidden behind it, they can no longer find it.
Inspector Megure sighed, "How cunning. Once the information from Dr. Yoshimura is destroyed, if we want to continue investigating, we can only start from the 'forces threatening the dead' that Dr. Kanda mentioned.
"But according to the results of Takagi's interrogation just now, Kanda never saw anyone following the deceased, nor did he see the deceased receiving threatening letters or phone calls. He simply guessed that Yoshimura had offended someone based on the deceased's evasive attitude, so he used the 'threat maker' as an excuse to find Jiang Xia for a commission, and by the way, he also found a lead for Yoshimura's 'accidental fall from a building' - whether those people actually exist is still unclear.
"If we want to continue investigating this matter, I'm afraid we can only send people to stake out near Yoshimura's house. If those 'people who threatened him' really existed, they would definitely follow up. But this case has already been reported in the news. In this case, they already knew about the situation at the time of the crime."
In short, no matter from which angle you look at it, the situation is not optimistic.
Inspector Megure recalled the excitement of discovering a big case when he got the deceased's laptop. Looking at his current predicament, he couldn't help but punch the back of the chair: "Who broke that computer?"
…
A few thousand meters away, in a low-key car.
Toru Amuro: "Ah!"
In the passenger seat, Jiang Xia turned around and glanced at him: "Are you catching a cold?"
Amuro Toru's voice sounded a little tired, and he shook his head: "No."
But even though he didn't have a cold, he was indeed very busy tonight.
——Just now, I met Jiang Xia and Conan on the 6th floor. After learning that Dr. Yoshimura fell to his death, Toru Amuro immediately went to the deceased's home on the 5th floor.
On the surface, he is curious about the case and wants to sneak into the crime scene as a "detective" like other detectives, looking for clues and helping to solve the case.
But in fact, he took advantage of the fact that the police believed the case was an "accident" and found the laptop of the deceased Mitsuo Yoshimura. He destroyed the data inside in the chaos and secretly copied a copy before destroying it.
