Rebirth of Conan as a Detective

The Kataoka family, Gao Cheng still followed Megure and his party in a daze, and sneaked into the luxurious mansion disguised as a partner of the Kataoka Group.

The Kataoka Hanshiro who went to the theater to take away the heroine before was still frowning in the hall, even if the police came, he only let his secretary Otsuki receive him.

"The ransom is 150 million yuan... Each of the three companies, Imai Electronics, Kato Networks and Nakao Communications, will prepare a copy, and then prepare the specified amount before 2:00 p.m., and the secretary will send the money to Yoshioka 1-chome alone. The parking lot…”

Megure sat down in front of the laptop and checked the email. In addition to the text, there was also a video of Kataoka Renhua being kidnapped.

"The threatening letter was sent an hour ago, what about the sender?"

"have no idea."

"About the three companies that the kidnappers demanded for the ransom..."

"These three companies are all companies that have recently done business with our company," Okinawa explained after getting Hanshiro Kataoka's consent, "and all of them have proposed to Mr. Kataoka to Ms. Lianhua..."

"So, did Miss Lianhua run away from home to escape marriage?" Gao Cheng took a special look at the stern-faced Hanshiro Kataoka.

In the end, the daughter was brought back only for the sake of marriage, and the Suzuki family, which has a harmonious family relationship, is completely incomparable.

"You are?"

Kataoka Hanshiro looked at Gao Cheng in doubt. He didn't pay much attention to Gao Cheng when he was in the Mihua Theater before, but the secretary next to him, Otsuru, changed his face slightly when he thought about it: "Could this be..."

"Oh," Meguro stood up from the computer, and realized later, "This is Detective Kido, who is also our special adviser to the police. We just got Detective Kido to come over to help."

"Yes, is it?" Da Guan pushed his black-rimmed glasses with sweat on his forehead, "But the kidnapping case shouldn't require a detective, right?"

"Detectives are not only good at murder."

Gao Cheng paused his gaze on Da Guan, and carefully checked the threatening emails on the computer.

The attached video captures Kataoka Renhua being tied up in a place that looks like a warehouse, and you can see the scenery outside the window.

However, the middle of the image seemed to be cut off, and the next second the curtains became drawn.

In addition, there are a few frames in which Kataoka Renka’s movements are a bit unnatural. The mouth is indeed sealed with tape, but the arms appear to move, especially a few seconds after the curtain is drawn. The front and rear frames are shown separately. , you can clearly find the abnormality of Kataoka Renhua.

Although they are all leaning against the left side of the window with their legs curled up, they look a little different after the curtains are drawn, and the position of the rope wrapped around the body also changes.

For a kidnapping involving 150 million yuan, this video is too unprofessional. Even if you are concerned about the window, you can cut out the previous video or re-record it.

And after the curtains were drawn, there was an extra piece of spider silk on Kataoka Renhua's head. If you look closely, it should be attached to the spider web in the upper right corner of the window.

If it was Kataoka Renka who pulled the curtain, would it be a fake kidnapping designed by Kataoka Renka?

Gao Cheng had a headache for a while.

If I had known it earlier, I would not have come to Kataoka’s house, but Conan also knew about the situation, and the troupe is still waiting for the heroine, so it is estimated that they will come over.

It's really confusing enough, should I help police officer Megure solve the case here or wait and see Kataoka Renka?

"What's the situation of those three companies now?" Mumu asked the secretary Otsuru in thought.

"Actually, just now, one of the three suitors said that his company was in bad condition and did not help us prepare a ransom..."

"Hmph! What nonsense!" Kataoka Hanshiro snorted coldly, "He is just afraid of trouble and scandal! How dare he compare the life of my daughter Lianhua with the reputation of his company!"

"But what about the ransom demanded by the kidnappers?"

"I've prepared it long ago. On the surface, of course it's in the name of his company..."

"That's it."

Gao Cheng scratched his hair and looked at the still dignified crowd.

At 2 o'clock, just when the touring troupe began,

Why did Renhua Kataoka choose this time? Are you delaying? But I did not see Renhua Kataoka at the theater...

After a while, Conan followed Tamanosuke to Kataoka's house, and hurriedly asked Gaocheng to secretly understand the situation while Tamanosuke was communicating with everyone.

"Does that mean that Ms. Lianhua planned the kidnapping herself?" Conan and Gao Cheng talked in the corridor outside.

"It's hard to say," Gao Cheng looked at Da Guan, the secretary in the room who had been explaining the situation to the police, "If it was planned by Ms. Lianhua, it is very likely that she should go to the theater now... In short, it is best to find Lianhua first. Let's talk again, Miss Hua."

"Alright," Conan nodded, "I think she probably wants to use the fake kidnapping to let Mr. Kataoka understand her thoughts..."

"Fake kidnapping?" Tamanosuke appeared in the corridor, "Are you serious?"

"It should be very possible."

"In that case, I might know where the warehouse in the video is."

Tamanosuke Ito thought for a while, avoiding the people in the room and said softly: "I'll take you to have a look. We rented a place where costumes, props and other things are stored. Lianhua seems to have a key there..."

"it is good."

Finding an excuse to deal with Police Officer Megure, Gaocheng and Conan left Kataoka's house with Tamanosuke Ito, and quickly took a taxi to a warehouse house that looked a little old.

"Tamanosuke," Gao Cheng looked at Ito Tamanosuke who took out the key to open the door of the warehouse, "you don't want Miss Lianhua to leave one of them, do you?"

"One really needs Lianhua. The Tale of Taketori without Kaguya Hime wouldn't be the Tale of Taketori..."

Tamanosuke Ito didn't seem to like to talk much, so he opened the door silently and searched in the warehouse.

"There seems to be no one here."

"That's right here."

Gao Cheng went straight to a window. A rope could still be seen on the wooden floor, and some blood was sprinkled on the ground next to it.

It hasn't turned black yet, obviously it hasn't been around for long, it should be within today.

"What's the matter?" Ito Tamanosuke saw Gao Cheng squatting down, approached in doubt, and his face turned pale when he saw the blood, "This is... Lianhua? Detective Kido, what's going on?"

"Don't panic." Gao Cheng frowned and looked around calmly.

At least it was a fake kidnapping at first, but there seems to be a change in the middle...

Kataoka Renka's fake kidnapping has been turned into a real kidnapping. The prisoner is likely to be the person who originally helped Kataoka Renka implement the plan. A 17-year-old girl can ask for help at Kataoka's house and is also the most suitable person to ask for help...

The figure of secretary Daguan flashed in front of Gao Cheng's eyes.

If the prisoner is an assister, Kataoka Renhua's life is in danger, why is it such a bad thing?

Are you going to become a girl savior?

Gathering his thoughts, Gao Cheng stood up and opened the curtains. Opposite the warehouse was a construction site under construction. When he came, he happened to pass by a shop called "Soup House".

The top priority is to find Kataoka Renhua quickly, and the only way to do it is from the secretary Oguan.

"Detective Kido," Tamanosuke Ito squeezed his palms, "Can I trouble you... Can I trouble you to find Lianhua?"

"We're going back to Kataoka's house now," Gao Cheng turned around to appease Ito Tamanosuke, "You still have one to work on, so go back first, you can't live without a seat leader..."

"But Lianhua..."

"I also want to see Kaguya Ji's performance, don't worry, I will definitely bring Miss Lianhua there safely," Gao Cheng asked with a smile, "How long will Miss Lianhua be on stage?"

"This..." Tamanosuke Ito said in a deep voice, "The whole scene takes less than two hours. Even if Xiaolan acts as a stand-in temporarily, the sex scene that requires Lianhua to show up will be about one and a half hours..."
