Chapter 802 Kidnapping (4000)

The case that arose after the "Western Death God" traveled eastward and the "Eastern Death God" finally came to an end without any casualties due to the painstaking efforts of Tangze, a righteous man, to stop it.

As Hattori Heiji and Kazuha returned to Osaka the next day, the God of Death seemed to have fallen into "sage mode", giving Tokyo, a city plagued by disasters and bleeding rivers, a rare breather.

In the following working days, the Search Section 1 did not receive even a single case. They rarely took advantage of the free time in these few days to deal with the various sundries accumulated on hand.

Of course, Tang Ze was not included in this effort.

During these few days of free time, Karasawa didn't always stay in the Search Division. After all, he was also the consultant of the newly established "Kesouyan". In the absence of a confirmed director and deputy director, he was the top officer of this organization. .

Naturally, as the current person in charge, he also has many large and small affairs to be busy with.

For example, the procurement of some scientific equipment and the establishment of personnel in various departments were all things Tang Ze needed to take care of.

Even if there are tools for the actual execution, in order to prevent the other party from using power for personal gain behind the scenes, Tang Ze cannot completely delegate power to the other party.

However, Karasawa is still very satisfied with the work efficiency of Yamazaki Yuji, the tool man.

The first is the "clerical department" that I also attach great importance to but is ignored by others. The other party actually listened to my words and did not pervert my explanation.

Regarding the establishment of the "clerical department", in addition to some professors in related fields, he also started from graduate students and doctoral students.

Of course, he did not completely ignore undergraduate students. He signed an agreement with interested students in advance, promising that as long as they were admitted to graduate school and passed the exam, they could directly join the "Kesouyan".

These preferential treatment attracted a large number of outstanding students to sign up. It can be said that whether it is the current construction or the future addition of "new blood", the other party has already taken it into consideration.

However, Tang Ze is not surprised to have such results. After all, "scientific search and research" is also the job of civil servants. In the eyes of most people, it is already a very respectable job.

The only profession that is discriminated against is the profession of "forensic medicine". Even if he is a civil servant, it is not easy for him to work. He is completely at the bottom of the contempt chain.

However, as Karasawa's series of measures to increase welfare were rolled out, many students from the medical school did express their interest in considering it.

As for Aso, he was also among his friends, and attracted a couple who were attracted by the welfare benefits.

Since the two of them had the same profession and were not worried about finding a partner, they quickly became the second batch of members of the forensic department to join.

Although Aso has only recruited two people so far, he has done more than just these things.

By communicating with his professor, he successfully made his teacher a permanent non-staff member.

At the same time, the students under the other party will also become free assistants during their studies.

Of course, this is actually a mutually beneficial process. After all, "general teachers" are not always available.

However, the forensic department can frequently provide corpses that they can study on, which can be considered a win-win situation.

Generally speaking, the "Kesouyan" has been under construction in an orderly manner, and even the "Clerical Department" has begun to operate.

After all, their department does not require instruments or practical operations like other departments.

They only need to combine the case information, make judgments and give suggestions based on their own knowledge and experience.

Of course, not all cases require the advice of professors from the "Clerical Affairs Department". Criminals can solve most common cases by themselves.

Only when encountering more difficult cases, would we ask for help from professors in related fields in the "clerical department".

Although a group of criminals may be skeptical at first, Tang Ze also believes that after the initial run-in, this model will soon be integrated into one of the procedures of the Metropolitan Police Department's investigation cases.

They are not required to be able to solve cases every time like famous detectives, but as long as they can increase the detection rate and give useful suggestions, that is enough.

Tangze also believes that these changes will make the big guys at the top understand the pros and cons and begin to change their attitude from wait-and-see to strong support.

This week can be regarded as a relatively novel week for Karaze.

After all, he used to deal with corpses, cases, and prisoners, but this week he became an administrative worker.

Although he is still exposed to case-related work, he is more inclined to logistics and giving orders, and will not do any substantive matters.

Although Tang Ze was still interested at first because the novelty had not worn off yet, he soon lost interest.

Because he has already seen what kind of working status he would be like in the future if he did not work part-time in the First Investigation Division.

Now when it was first established, there were a lot of things to do. When it was relatively busy, he just gave orders with his lips and let the people below do things.

If "Kesouyan" gets on the right track in the future, then he may be the kind of consultant who has plenty of time to spare.

Perhaps for other people, this kind of leisurely position that is destined to be promoted in the future is definitely a dream, but who knows that Tang Ze is born with a hard life.

There is no way, there is no way to become stronger without working hard.

Of course, it would be nice if the pace of getting stronger wasn't so urgent and the "God of Death" wouldn't urge you.

Time flew by and the weekend came, but Tang Ze did not let down his guard but instead cheered up.

Because he had been at ease during the workday for such a long time, he felt that there was a high chance that he would have to deal with cases this weekend.

Ayako happened to be on a business trip for a few days this weekend, so Karasawa planned to take advantage of this time to take the initiative to find out the news.

As for where to go, of course it was the Mori Detective Agency.

Of course, since it was the weekend, Tangze couldn't go straight to someone else's house early in the morning.

But just when someone was lazing around and had breakfast and was about to leave, the phone suddenly rang.

Looking at the word "Takagi" displayed on the caller ID screen, Tang Ze knew that his plan was probably over before it even started.

After answering the phone, Tangze quickly learned the full story of the case. What made him more comfortable was that this case was not a usual murder case, but an ongoing kidnapping case.

Although the word "comfortable" was used during the kidnapping case, which seemed a bit inappropriate, this was Tang Ze's true thoughts.

Compared with cases in the scientific world, although kidnapping cases seem dangerous, they actually have the highest survival rate.

Compared with those murder cases that have already been killed, at least the kidnapping case has a high probability of ending in a rescue drama that turns danger into safety and everyone is happy. Of course, this is the case from the results, but it does not mean that we can sit back and relax.

In order to prevent any mistakes in the process, or that this was not a "Ke Xue Series" case, Tangze hurried to the kidnapped person's home to meet with Officer Megure and others.

Because he had contacted him by phone in advance while he was in the car, Karasawa's car smoothly drove into the mansion with the word "Kataoka" on the name.

After getting out of the car, Tangze walked straight towards the door of the room. Takagi was already ready in the room. When Tangze approached the door, he opened the door and welcomed him into the house.

The reason for doing this was to prevent Tang Ze from staying outside the house for too long and arousing the suspicion of possible observers around him.

It was precisely with this in mind that Tang Ze chose to call in advance when he was about to arrive.

"Brother Tang Ze, you are here."

After entering the room, Officer Memu looked slightly relaxed when he saw Karasawa's arrival, but he suddenly became serious again: "Let me tell you the general situation first."

"Okay." Karasawa nodded, ready to listen to Officer Memu's account of the specific circumstances of this case.

"Takagi, why are you still standing at the door?"

Officer Megure had originally planned to start explaining, but when he saw Takagi lying in front of the door with his head stretched out and looking around, he couldn't help but frown and said: "Come back quickly, it will be troublesome if you are discovered by a possible monitor. ”

"No, I saw it. Xiaolan, Conan and a strange young man got out of the taxi."

Takagi said as he opened the door ajar: "What should I do? It seems like their goal is here."

"Nani?" Hearing Takagi's words, Officer Memu couldn't help being shocked: "How come Xiaolan and Conan are here?"

"Eh?" Mouri Kogoro, who was also in the house, was shocked when he heard this: "Why are the two of them here?"

"What should I do? Do you want them to come in?" Takagi looked at the situation outside through the crack in the door and asked repeatedly.

"Let them come in, leaving them standing outside is not an option." At this moment, Tang Ze spoke up, "Besides, Xiaolan and Conan are both acquaintances, so they won't cause trouble."

"That's all we can do." Officer Memu nodded after hearing this and said, "Takagi, hurry up and greet them into the house."

"I see."

Takagi nodded when he heard this, then opened the ajar door and leaned out to wave to the outside world in the direction of the door.

After a while, Xiaolan and three others walked into the room.

After "Karasawa Criminal Uncle Maori" entered the door and saw the familiar people in the room, Conan looked stern: "What happened?"

"I still want to ask you!" Mouri Kogoro stood up from the sofa and said angrily: "Why did you come to Mr. Hanshiro's house?"

"We are here to find Renhua." A handsome young man on the side came to Kataoka Hanshiro with some aggressiveness and said, "Where is she, where is Renhua?"

"I also wanted to ask whether she hid in your theater?" Kataoka Hanshiro got up from the sofa, went to the wine cabinet nearby, poured a glass of wine, and drank it down impatiently: "Lianhua said last night I wanted to go out to buy something, and then I lost contact.”

"What did you say!" the young man said in disbelief.

"Dad, what's going on?" Xiaolan on the side couldn't help but look at her father after hearing this, hoping to get an explanation.

"It just so happens that I have to explain the current situation to Tang Ze Criminal, so you can listen together."

Officer Megure heard this and spoke, then slowly began to tell the details of the case.

The first is the kidnapped person, Kataoka Renka, who is seventeen years old and is the daughter of Kataoka Hanshiro.

Last night I claimed I was going out to buy something, but then I never came back, and there was no way I could contact him again.

At the beginning, Kataoka Hanshiro thought that his daughter might be angry at him for not letting her go to the theater to perform, so he ran back to the theater willfully.

But who knew that almost an hour ago, he received an email in his mailbox, and the video inside confirmed the fact that his daughter had been kidnapped.

Faced with this situation, Kataoka Hanshiro immediately chose to call the police, and at the same time contacted the famous detective Mouri Kogoro, hoping that he and the police could work together to save his daughter.

"Theatre?" After hearing this, Karasawa turned to look at the young man next to Xiaolan whose expression also changed drastically. Combined with Kataoka Hanshiro's words before, he guessed that the man might be someone related to the theater.

And Conan might have met the other person at the theater and used this as an opportunity to get involved in the case.

Well, since Conan is also involved in the case this time, there is no problem in putting the blame on Conan.

Seeing Tang Ze's eyes on the other party, Conan on the side also spoke up at the right time, roughly explaining to Tang Ze why they came here.

To put it simply, Renka Kataoka, who had been hiding the identity of the eldest lady, was suddenly called back by her father yesterday.

And because she plays the important role of "Kaguya" in the upcoming "The Tale of Bamboo".

That's why Tamanosuke Ito, the head of the troupe, came to Kataoka's house with Xiaolan and the others today, hoping to get Hanshiro Kataoka to be open-minded and allow Renka to perform.

But who knew that such a thing would happen.

After listening to Conan's explanation, Tang Ze also roughly understood the cause and effect. As for why they were in the theater, he didn't bother to ask.

Anyway, it's just to trigger some of the itinerary of the case. It's the same old thing and there's nothing to say. Anyway, Conan, the scapegoat, will definitely not be able to escape. It's useless no matter how hard he doesn't admit it.

After roughly understanding the cause and effect, Tang Ze turned his eyes to the laptop on the coffee table. "Is the video sent by the prisoner there?"

"That's right." Officer Memu nodded, "Not only does it contain the prisoner's request, but there is also a video of Miss Lianhua being kidnapped."

After hearing this, Tangze walked towards the coffee table and looked at the laptop that had been opened.

There, a video of a kidnapped girl was on the left window of the computer, and the right window was a redemption request sent by the prisoner.

Three companies, Imai Electronics, Nakao Media, and Kato Networks, each prepared 2 million, and then handed the million to the secretary before p.m. and delivered the money to Yoshigo -chome parking lot.

Seeing this, Karasawa glanced at the young man wearing glasses next to Kataoka Hanshiro. It was obvious that he was his secretary and the person designated by the gangster to deliver the ransom.
