Ke Xue: The thief Cao is actually myself

Chapter 283: Break out, my little universe! (Please give me a monthly ticket!)
"All right!"

Now that Byakuya's words have come to this point, what else can Mouri Kogoro say, he can only nod and agree.

Several people went to investigate together. Although the search was careful, it was also extremely time-consuming. By then, it would easily be the case that the kidnapped Gu Jingzi could not be rescued in time.

Instead of doing this, it is better to divide the troops and take action. Not only is it more efficient, but also the kidnapper's hiding place can be found in the shortest possible time and Gu Jingzi can be rescued.

Of course, there are certain risks in this method of action.

After all, if the kidnapper holds any lethal weapons, the person who finds him will not only alert the kidnapper and sabotage the rescue operation of Tani Akiko, but also easily put his life in danger.

Fortunately, both Maori Kogoro, Byakuya and Maori Ran are all very capable in fighting. Even if the kidnapper holds a highly lethal weapon similar to a firearm, he still has a chance to protect himself and save Tani Akiko. Get rescued.

Even if you don't dare to take action easily due to some factors, you can still stand in a stalemate for a while until others come to support you!

Seeing that Byakuya had arranged the next work, President Tani pondered for a moment and ordered to Butler Aso, "Butler, prepare a car for Detective Mori and Aozaki-kun."

Driving is always more convenient and faster than walking.

……

Suddenly, Conan, who was panting and thinking, saw a building standing nearby, and this building looked very much like a chimney from the side.

Afterwards, Bai Ye and Maori Lan were in a group, and Maori Kogoro was in a group by himself. In this way, the two groups took the car arranged by President Kamiya and left here...

He suspected that Miss Tani Akiko might have seen it wrong.

"Futashi Middle School!"

After riding a Big Mac and running around the building, Conan came to the side facing away from the moon, and then his eyes lit up.

"Listen, the money is placed on the bench in Hyakusami Park. I will release your daughter as soon as I receive the money."

Thinking like this, he rode the Big Mac and took action again...

At the very least, it’s much faster than a kid riding a dog!

"This is it……"

A man in black wearing a white-brown peaked cap was standing in front of the window that let in some light, with gloomy eyes.

"Ah! Is Akiko okay?"

In addition, Tani Akiko just said that she was in the school's warehouse. From the window, she could see a huge chimney outside, and there were five schools nearby where chimneys could be seen.

"The only school in this neighborhood where you can think of this building as a chimney is..."

The chimney the other party saw was probably not a real chimney, but a building that looked very similar to a chimney from the side.

Logically speaking, his previous reasoning should not be wrong.

"Wait a minute, could it be..."

Because if he looked at it from here, the building looked more like a chimney than when he saw it from the side.

Unfortunately, to his disappointment, he searched all the nearby schools where chimneys could be seen, but could not find the suspected kidnapper, let alone the poor kidnapped hostage Gu Jingzi.

As for President Gu, he contacted people to collect the 300 million yen needed by the kidnappers, while staying at home and waiting for news about the kidnappers...

Riding a Big Mac, Conan quickly checked all eligible schools on the map.

But why, after he searched all five nearby schools that met the requirements, could he not see the two of them?

……

"Yes, sir."

Did the kidnapper change his hiding place after hanging up the phone to avoid being exposed, or was there any key clue he missed?

"wrong!"

"Looking from the side, she thought the building was a chimney."

Inside the Erqiao Middle School warehouse!

After realizing this, Conan narrowed his eyes slightly and had a bold idea in his mind.

Butler Aso nodded quickly and agreed.

This possibility is not impossible, but it is very likely.

Hearing the kidnapper's voice, President Gu's face was filled with tension and worry.

He was a little worried that his daughter would be harmed by the kidnappers because of the leaked information just now.

In other words, the kidnappers and Tani Akiko are now in these five schools.

So, here comes the question...

"No, not here either!"

He is the murderer of this kidnapping case, and he is now in contact with President Gu, a rich man whose daughter was kidnapped.

Wiping the sweat from his head, Conan frowned suddenly, "There is no school where the chimney can be seen. Are they really not near here?"

Recalling the locations of other schools on the map that he had seen earlier, Conan's eyes became brighter and brighter.

After all, not much time has passed since the kidnapping! No matter how you think about it, Tani Akiko and the kidnappers should be somewhere nearby.

Otherwise, there is really no way to explain why he still couldn't find the kidnapper after checking all five schools that met the requirements.

Thinking this, he quickly begged, "Please! Let me hear Akiko's voice again!"

If he didn't listen again, he really couldn't trust his daughter.

"Listen slowly later!"

Looking at the brightly lit building outside the window, the man in black sneered disdainfully, hung up the phone, and then looked in front of him.

There was a little girl who was about seven or eight years old, wearing a purple sweater and a dark short skirt, her mouth was taped tightly, and her whole body was tied up so that she could not move.

And the little girl who was tied up and thrown into the corner was his hostage, Tani Akiko.

Noticing that the Kuroko man looked at him with a somewhat unkind look after hanging up the phone, Gu Jingzi quickly shrank and tried to reduce his sense of presence.

Looking at Gu Jingzi who was trying hard to reduce her sense of security, the man in black smiled coldly, "The business has been done! In other words, you are no longer of use value!"

Now that the deal has been negotiated, there is no need for him to let Gu Jingzi, the hostage, continue to live.

After all, the other party has seen his face. To be on the safe side, he must not let the other party leave here alive. What's more, a smart little girl like Tani Akiko, after being kidnapped by him, can still find the right opportunity to provide clues to others to save herself. If he can't find a way to deal with it, even if he "makes money with the kidnapping" "I'm afraid I won't be able to feel at ease even if I take 300 million yen to seek refuge in other countries.

With this thought in mind, he slowly took out the short knife that he had kept in his left pocket, and then, while slowly pulling the knife out of its sheath, he slowly walked towards the frightened little girl.

Hearing his words and seeing his actions, the little girl named Tani Akiko, the long-suppressed fear in her heart suddenly burst out uncontrollably. She quickly shook her head, struggled and cried as if begging for mercy, hoping that the kidnapper could Let yourself go.

Unfortunately, because her mouth was sealed with tape, no matter how hard she struggled and no matter how large her movements were, she could only make a whining sound and could not speak at all.

"Wait a moment!"

Seeing that the man in black was about to kill Tani Akiko, a tragedy was about to take place. Suddenly, a shout came from outside the warehouse.

Suddenly hearing other people's voices, the man in black was startled.

He never thought that his carefully chosen hiding place would be discovered.

I just don’t know if what I found is just a passer-by or someone related to this kidnapping case.

"Who is it? Who is where?"

Thinking like this, the frightened and angry kidnapper quickly approached the wall at the door, hiding his figure and asking cautiously, trying to find out the identity of the person coming.

Unfortunately, what puzzled him was that his inquiry failed to receive any response.

Even when he cautiously poked his head out, he could only see a dark, empty space, and nothing else.

For a moment, the man in black wondered if he was hallucinating because he was too nervous.

Then the next moment, the voice sounded again and he realized something.

That is, he did not have auditory hallucinations.

Someone really found his traces.

"it's here!"

The man in black looked around and saw a big, vicious dog and a little boy wearing glasses in a blue coat.

But before he could understand what was going on and who the little boy was, the next moment, he was thrown to the ground by a menacing big dog like a giant wolf, and bit him. stand up.

Seeing this scene, Conan quickly ran to President Tani's daughter, Akiko Tani, and while untying her, he comforted her, "Okay, okay, everything is fine."

Upon seeing this, Gu Jingzi, who originally thought that she would die and would never see her father again, immediately glanced at him gratefully, and then asked doubtfully, "Who are you?"

Hearing this, Conan stopped untying Akiko Tani, stood up straight, and said proudly, "I am Kudo Shinichi..."

When he said this, Conan paused and realized that he was no longer the high school detective Kudo Shinichi, but just an elementary school student who was inconvenient to reveal his true identity. Then he quickly changed his words, "Uh, no, I His name is Edogawa Conan, and he is a detective.”

Gu Jingzi blinked, "Detective..."

Although I don’t know why the boy in front of me first claimed to be Kudo Shinichi and then changed his name to another name.

But no matter what, it was the other party who saved her from harm.

She must repay this kindness once she returns home safely.

"Damn you kid, don't look down on me!"

Just when Gu Jingzi and Conan thought that Big Mac had suppressed the kidnapper, the man in black, and everything had settled, an angry male voice with a sinister meaning suddenly sounded from above their heads, but one person and one person The dog war is over.

Unfortunately, although Big Mac looked fierce and strong, he was no match for the man in black, and was beaten away by him within a few blows.

Seeing "Big Mac" being thrown to the ground by the man in black, he let out a scream and ran out of the warehouse with his tail between his legs. The man in black was also approaching the two of them with evil eyes. Conan's pupils He shrank suddenly, quickly raised his leg and kicked the man in black in the face, trying to attack him with his feet.

However, the man in black was really good at it. Before his attack could take effect, he grabbed his thin leg and threw it aside.

"hateful!"

"Because the body has become smaller."

After forcing himself to get up from the ground, Conan's face looked extremely ugly, "I can't use any strength at all!"

However, the man in black kept approaching him and Tani Akiko, and there was a baseball bat in the other's hand.

One side is two unarmed children, and the other side is a tall adult man with weapons in his hands. This time, no matter how you look at it, he and Tani Akiko are in danger.

"Look at me!"

At this moment, a football rolled to his feet. Conan had an idea, raised his leg and kicked the ball away, using his own secret - football launch!
In his opinion, with his proud football skills, he was enough to subdue the man in black in front of him.

Even if he couldn't knock him out with one blow, he could still attract the opponent's attention and create a chance for himself and Tani Akiko to escape.

It's a pity that he overestimated his current self.

After all, it is impossible for him to have his original strength after becoming smaller.

So the man in black easily caught his ball with one hand.

"No, I've lost all the power to play football!"

Before Conan could think of a way to resist, the man in black came in front of him, and before Conan could react from the fact that his attack was taken so easily, he smashed him away with a stick. Got out.

"hateful!"

Leaning against the wall, Conan felt pain all over his body.

After falling down several times in a row, his whole body was now filled with severe pain, and his heart felt even more dejected.

"My body is so small, even if I find the criminal, I won't even have the strength to capture him!"

If he had known that the man in black was so difficult to deal with, he should have shared the information with Bai Ye and others after "cracking" Tani Akiko's real hiding place, instead of breaking in alone just to preempt Bai Ye from solving the case.

If he could contact Bai Ye, or his childhood sweetheart, or even a confused detective in time, maybe today, he wouldn't end up in a situation where he would be trapped even if he didn't save anyone.

Thinking of this, Conan's heart was filled with regret for a moment.

Unfortunately, it's too late to say anything now.

"The game is over!"

Looking coldly at Conan who was thrown into the corner by a stick, the man in black showed a ferocious smile on his face.

No matter where the little devil who suddenly appeared in front of him came from, since he dared to interfere with his affairs and now fell into his hands, don't blame him for being rude!

"Go to hell, kid!"
