Conan: Money Talks

"Lies are the shadow of the truth! Mr. Iida, you lied too!!!"

No one expected Miyamoto Han to say this suddenly, and they all looked at him and the staff member Iida with a stunned expression.

Iida, like Kubota, is an old employee of the Beika Art Museum and has worked here for several years. And unlike Kubota, who is not liked by other colleagues, he is very popular because he is enthusiastic about helping others.

Even the old director Ochiai has a high opinion of him!

"Boss, you must be mistaken. I can guarantee that Iida will never kill anyone. Director Ochiai came forward to guarantee for Iida.

"Yes! We also believe in Mr. Iida!" Other people in the art museum also vouched for him.

Seeing so many people vouching for him, Iida had a hint of pride on his face, but he quickly hid it. Then he put on a sad expression and said to Miyamoto Han:"I didn't expect that I would work in this art museum for so many years. Although I have no credit, I didn't expect that the new boss would not trust me as an old employee. Since you don't trust me, I will just resign. Why say such things!"

This Iida is really amazing. Although on the surface he seems to be telling about his grievances, expressing his willingness to compromise and resign, there is a deeper meaning hidden in his words.

After hearing what Iida said, the other museum employees were a little flustered, and their eyes looked at Miyamoto Kan differently.

Inspector Megure and Maori Kogoro both frowned, but after all, neither of them was from the museum, so neither of them spoke. This matter can only be handled by Miyamoto Kan.

Even the simple Xiaolan heard the hidden meaning of Iida and frowned slightly. Although she also thinks that Mr. Iida looks like a good person, she is more willing to believe Miyamoto Kan than Miyamoto Kan, whom she has known for a while.

Miyamoto Kan certainly noticed the changes in the expressions of other employees. Although he did not expect that Iida would use his words to provoke the minds of other employees at this time, Miyamoto Kan did not care at all. Because he had already mastered the winning card

"Compared to Kubota, you are more capable and smarter than this guy. However, aren't you a little too confident? Do you really think you have done it perfectly? Do you think I can just say it without evidence?"Miyamoto Han sneered and said to Iida

"Then I want to see what evidence you have?" Iida was also startled when he saw how calm Miyamoto Han was, but his mentality was much better than Kubota's, and he immediately forced himself to calm down, perhaps because he was confident that Miyamoto Han would never find any evidence!

""Hmph!" Miyamoto Han snorted coldly, and then continued,"Since you are so confident, I will ask you a few questions. Do you dare to answer honestly?"

Miyamoto Han's gaze was like a sharp arrow piercing Iida. Iida's heart couldn't help but be a little nervous again.

But at this time, Iida could only bite the bullet and respond:"Ask!"

"The first question is, did you really know that Kubota had leverage over Manaka because you overheard the conversation between him and Manaka? The second question is, do you also have leverage over Manaka like Kubota? The third question is, the key on your waist is yours, right?"

Miyamoto Han kept asking Iida questions one after another, leaving him no time to breathe.

Iida was even more flustered by his pressure.

"Mr. Iida, please answer the question!" Inspector Megure finally decided to believe Miyamoto Han and spoke to Iida.

You know, if it was only Miyamoto Han asking, it would be just a general inquiry, but now with the addition of Inspector Megure, the meaning is different. He represents the police's inquiry.

Iida thought for a moment before answering:"Regarding the matter between Kubota and Boss Manaka, I did learn about it by accident. I have already talked about this before. As for the second question, it is even more nonsense. I, Iida, do things openly and honestly, so there is no handle. As for the third, this is indeed my key. Is there any problem?"

Iida also looked at the pendant key with a pink Kitty cat hanging on his waist in confusion. It was a birthday gift from his daughter, and he always carried it with him.

"No, I just asked the third question casually. It's just my personal interest, don't be nervous!"Miyamoto Han answered him with a smile

"Humph! Where is the evidence you mentioned? I'm still waiting for you to produce the evidence."Iida asked Miyamoto Han

"Of course I have the evidence you want, don't worry." Miyamoto Han smiled and said confidently,"First of all, let's talk about your answer just now! You said that you don't have any evidence in Manaka's hand, and you accidentally learned that Kubota was threatened by Manaka because he smuggled paintings from the art museum to sell. But the information my subordinates gave me didn't say that!"

"What!!!" Iida was shocked when he heard this.

"Originally, I came to the art museum this time, in addition to coming to see the situation here, I also wanted to talk to you and Kubota, after all, you two stole a lot of works from the art museum and sold them. As the new owner of the art museum, I have the right to hold you two legally responsible."

Before Iida could speak, Ochiai asked first:"Is this true? Boss!"

Ochiai actually didn't believe it at first, but seeing Miyamoto Han's sure look, he couldn't help but waver.

Miyamoto Han didn't give Iida a chance to speak, and directly took out the report of his subordinates' investigation, held it high in his hand and said loudly:"This is the evidence, there are many photos of you two smuggling works out of the art museum, as well as the channels for you to sell the stolen works, and some recordings of transactions.

Of course, even the things you told Boss Manaka are recorded here!

It was you who told him about Kubota's stealing and selling artworks!

In the face of such evidence, do you have anything else to say? Mr.

Iida!

"

"I, I"Iida was completely speechless in the face of so much evidence.

"I believe everyone is very curious! Why should I ask the third question?"Miyamoto Han suddenly showed a mysterious smile and said to everyone. Everyone nodded. The previous two questions had answers, but this third question, is it really just a casual question as he said?
