Chapter 496 A Painting
"Oh, there is such a thing?" Li Canghai felt a little surprised.

Conan's face became serious in an instant, and he said in a deep voice: "When Ueda Takashi learned about this, he threatened to kill Azhu. At first, Juzi thought he was just angry for a while, and he just said it casually, but it wasn't until Azhu really After her death, she came to her senses and ran to Ueda Takashi to question him, but Ueda Takashi said that he did not kill A Zhu, and after a while, the two broke up unhappy."

"In this case, Takashi Ueda did have a motive for the murder." Li Canghai pondered.

"That's right, among all the people, only he has the time to commit the crime and the motive for the murder. I think he is very suspicious," Conan said.

Li Canghai frowned. He closed his eyes and thought about the case carefully, but he became even more puzzled.

"One more thing, Ueda Takashi once revealed his identity to her in order to make Juzi serve him with peace of mind." Speaking of this, Conan looked around cautiously, and he lowered his voice: "Ueda Takashi said that he is not ordinary. As a businessman, the relationship between him and Zhang Wenyuan is not between businessmen, and he said convincingly that the entire city of Yangzhou will be theirs in a short time."

Li Canghai raised his head suddenly and said, "Did Takashi Ueda really say that?"

Conan nodded heavily, and said seriously: "That's true."

"Ueda Takashi, Dongying businessman, Yangzhou City..." Li Canghai whispered, suddenly he seemed to think of something, and lost his voice: "Could it be that this Ueda Takashi is a rogue from Sang Island?"

Conan was stunned for a moment, he looked at Li Canghai puzzled, and asked, "Why does Brother Li think he is from Sang Island?"

Li Canghai frowned, his face suddenly became serious, he didn't answer Conan's question, but said to himself: "If Takashi Ueda is really a wanderer from Sang Island, then there is a big problem with his relationship with Zhang Wenyuan. Zhang Wenyuan is Yang Guozhong's adopted son, if Zhang Wenyuan is related to Sangdao Ronin, it is impossible for Yang Guozhong not to know, could it be that Yang Guozhong is related to this matter?"

Seeing Li Canghai talking to himself, Conan felt a little strange, so he said, "Brother Li, Takashi Ueda is the most suspected right now, should we notify the government first and arrest him?"

Li Canghai recovered from his contemplation, thought for a while, and said, "It's not urgent. Although he is suspected, we don't have any evidence against him. Let's observe him in secret first, and we won't be too late when we find evidence. "

After a pause, Li Canghai continued: "In addition to finding the murderer, we also need to investigate the true identity of Ueda Takashi. If he is really a rogue from Kuwashima, then their goal is likely to be the 'Three Great Artifacts'. This is also very important.”

Hearing Li Canghai mention the 'Three Great Artifacts', Conan's expression became serious involuntarily.

The "Three Great Artifacts" are of great importance, and there is no room for any mistakes. This matter is related to the survival of the Japanese royal family. How can he not be nervous?

"Brother Li, I want to rush back to Yangzhou immediately to protect the 'Three Great Artifacts'." Conan said eagerly.

Li Canghai said: "Brother Conan, don't be too nervous. The 'Three Great Artifacts' are placed in Yangzhou City, protected by King Jianning, so they are absolutely safe. What we need to do now is to find out the real purpose of the ronin on Sang Island, so that we can prevent disasters." Yu Ran."

Conan looked at Li Canghai calmly, as if he didn't worry about the 'Three Great Artifacts' at all, so he couldn't help frowning.

Li Canghai knew that he had doubts, so he said: "Brother Conan doesn't know, King Jianning possesses unique skills, and his Jianning iron guards are all first-class masters, with the protection of the prince, unless thousands of troops capture Yangzhou City , otherwise there will be absolutely no accidents.”

In Luoyang City, he once fought side by side with Li Tan, and he admired Li Tan's martial arts very much.

Afterwards, he also asked Di Qing, and Di Qing gave the answer that Li Tan's martial arts were only higher than hers, enough to be called a "top master".

Conan thought about it carefully, then sighed, and said, "Forget it, since brother Li said so, then I will stay, hoping to find out Takashi Ueda's conspiracy as soon as possible."

After he paused for a while, he said: "What should we do now? Originally, the two of us came here to help the Lin family get back the land deed and punish Zhang Wenyuan. But now there are repeated murder cases. Not only did the land deed not be found, but we were in a state of helplessness. Now with the Ueda Takashi incident added, how should we investigate?"

Li Canghai also felt a little headache, for Zhang Wenyuan's evil deeds, he must make him pay the price.

But he had to take care of the murder case.

What's more, the two murders happened extremely bizarrely, which aroused his great interest.

Now he knows that there is collusion between Ueda Takashi and Zhang Wenyuan, and he will never leave the Zhang family until he finds out their purpose.

Li Canghai propped his chin with his hands, and after thinking for a while, he pondered: "Now that things have happened, we can only start the investigation from Ueda Takashi."

While the two were talking, Yu Chengen ran over sweating. He saw the two from a distance, hurriedly shouted at them, and then ran over at a trot.

"Brother Li, I found out that Takashi Ueda went to Hongmei's room secretly!" Yu Chengen ran to the two of them, sat down on the stone bench, wiped the sweat on his face with his sleeve, and said eagerly.

The two looked at each other and quickly asked, "When did this happen?"

Yu Chengen wiped his sweat and said out of breath, "Just half an hour ago!"

"Brother Yu, speak slowly, what's going on?" Li Canghai asked.

"It's like this. Originally, Brother Nan and I were secretly monitoring Ueda Takashi. Later, Brother Nan followed the orange and left me alone to watch. But nothing unusual happened this night. Half an hour ago, I was a little tired and felt uncomfortable. Something abnormal happened, so I planned to go back to the room to rest. At this moment, Ueda Takashi left the room secretly. I was startled, and my tiredness disappeared immediately, and I followed behind him immediately. After he left the room, he walked around Arrived at the backyard, and from the backyard came to Xiyuan, and then sneaked into Hongmei's room." Yu Chengen said.

"What is he doing in Hongmei's room?" Li Canghai frowned.

Yu Cheng'en said: "I saw him enter Hongmei's room, so I secretly looked through the window and found that Ueda Takashi was looking for something."

"What did he find?" Conan asked.

Yu Cheng'en said: "A painting! He found a painting from the painting table!"

Li Canghai and Conan looked at each other, and they both asked at the same time, "What painting?"

Yu Chengen scratched his head and said, "I only saw him unfold the scroll, but didn't see the contents of the painting."

"Oh no, we actually made such a big mistake! Go to Hongmei's room!" Li Canghai lost his voice.

Conan immediately pushed Li Canghai up and walked quickly towards Hongmei's room.
