Daily life of a spy in the world of Conan

For such a rich man, anything that can be solved with money is not a problem. He would definitely be more willing to pay the ransom than for the police to intervene and put the dog's life in danger."

After Xia Chuan finished speaking, the other side remained silent.

Gin was calculating the gains and losses, and after calculating for a long time, he found that there were only gains and no losses.

"I'll think about it, it's a good idea."

Gin praised Xiachuan a few more times, expressing his praise implicitly in his words.

Xia Chuan hung up the phone and sighed.

Yuanzi, it’s all your fault for showing off your luxury car in front of me. I never thought of your family in the first place.

......

the next morning.

Xia Chuan arrived at Baijiu Pharmaceutical early in the morning.

Upon learning that Shirley had gone to the laboratory again, Xia Chuan confirmed his guess.

The supply of research materials has been cut off during this period. Shirley would definitely not stay in the laboratory if nothing happened, right?

So! There is only one truth that can make her stay in the laboratory at this time!

Compare Conan and Kudo Shinichi's hair!

The experiment came to a standstill, and while everyone else was enjoying their hard-earned moment of relaxation, Shirley was the only one left in the entire lab.

Xia Chuan walked forward and found that Shirley was staring at the report in her hand, so blankly that she didn't even notice Xia Chuan's arrival.

"What are you looking at?"

Shirley was so frightened that her hands shook and the report fell to the ground.

Xia Chuan helped pick it up and put it back on the table with a smile, and glanced at it. The name column of the report form showed the names Kudo Shinichi and Edogawa Conan.

Sure enough, has it been discovered?

"Why are you here?" Shirley pretended to be calm and sorted out the report forms and put them in a folder.

"How's it going? I let you go out for a few days. How's it going? Have you found a breakthrough in the research of Drug A?"

"No, all those who took the medicine died, so it has no reference value." As she spoke, Shirley typed a few times on the computer, and then a list popped out on the printer.

"It is confirmed that all those who took the drug have died. Here is the list. It seems that APTX4869 is still a long way from success."

She checked the list in her hand, then handed it to Xia Chuan and said, "You still need to sign this list."

Xia Chuan did not take the list immediately, but showed a half-smile: "That's a pity, I thought you could find something incredible."

"No!" Shirley shook her head in the affirmative.

Shirley always felt that Tequila was weird. Compared with the previous times they met, Tequila was not normal these two times, as if he was a different person.

Didn't Gin notice this change? I always feel that Tequila's eyes are creepy.

Every time I talk to him, I feel like all my thoughts are seen through by him, and it feels very uncomfortable.

In fact, this is only directed at Shirley. Natsukawa is still very well-behaved in front of Gin. The reason why he is like this in front of Shirley is a bit teasing, but the main purpose is to let Shirley find out that there is something wrong with Tequila's vest.

This is related to Xiachuan’s follow-up plans.

"Since you said so, I will sign it, but I still have to show it to Gin later."

"It doesn't matter."

Shirley shrugged and sneered, "But I advise you not to get too close to Gin. That guy kills people without blinking an eye, and the only person he trusts is Vodka. You'd better stay away from him."

"Don't worry about that, Miss Shirley. I'm not working for Gin, I'm working for the boss."

"Haha!" Shirley crossed her arms across her chest, expressing her disdain.

"I'd like to meet with my sister. When can you arrange it?"

She cares about her sister more than anything else, and she wants to find a way to pass the information she has found on to her sister. If the bargaining chips are in her sister's hands, Gin will definitely have some concerns.

"In a few days!"

Xia Chuan frowned and thought, this could only be arranged after Gin decided whether to take action against the rich man.

If you want to save Miyano Akemi, you must let Gin be delayed by other more important things. Otherwise, given Gin's cautiousness, he is likely to take care of Miyano Akemi himself.

Shirley obviously didn't know that Xia Chuan was doing this for her own good, and she looked unhappy, seeing that her sister wouldn't even let her do such a small thing, showing no sincerity at all.

As her sister was still in the hands of the other party, she could only swallow her anger.

However, if he meets Gin later, he will definitely sue Tequila!

Just say that Tequila is disrespectful to the elderly and has improper thoughts about her!

(Ask for monthly ticket)

Chapter 147: Jianggutian Landmark Clock Tower

Baijiu Pharmaceutical's vacation only lasted a few days, and Gin quickly brought back the funds.

Although it is not a lot, it can barely support the research operation.

So, the tool Shirley came online again.

During this time, Xia Chuan discovered a difference.

After Gin came back, the look in his eyes seemed a lot softer, not as sharp as before.

I think it has something to do with the information he provided.

It seems that Gin has been persuaded by him and intends to take action against Suzuki Lupin.

However, Xia Chuan did not go up to ask for details. Wouldn't that be asking for trouble? If he went up to him, he would be conscripted.

After several contacts, Xia Chuan has learned his lesson.

You can find out the specific situation from Vodka later, there is no need to ask Gin.

As for Conan.

The Maori family went on a three-day trip, and after they came back, Natsukawa always felt that there was something wrong with the way Conan looked at him.

However, Natsukawa doesn't care, which may be related to Hattori Heiji.

It seems that Conan's identity is likely to be discovered by Hattori Heiji. As expected, the world's correction power is still very strong. At least the relationship between the protagonist and the important supporting role cannot be misled by Natsukawa's few words.

After seeing Conan and Aniya off to school at the gate, Natsukawa turned around and drove to Frank's house.

Nothing big happened on Conan's side these two days, but there was some movement on Kaito Kid's side.

Since the Brilliant Flower incident, Kaito Kidd, who had disappeared for eight years, has reappeared in people's vision. So far, three preview letters have been issued.

This means that this unscrupulous son-in-law has played a trick on his stupid father-in-law three times.

The reason why Xiachuan paid attention today was because Frank received news that a transfer student named Koizumi Akako had arrived in Kuroba Kaito's class.

Frank got the news a little late.

Xiachuan remembered that the witch and the magician met for the first time on Valentine's Day. At that time, Koizumi Hongzi had already transferred to Ekoda High School, so Frank's news was at least four or five days late.

This is most likely related to the fact that the other party has a girlfriend. Damn Frank, his work enthusiasm has been corrupted by lust.

He didn't even take the things he asked him to do seriously.

But it's not a big problem. Even if Frank learned the news before Valentine's Day, Xiachuan would not have the time to watch Koizumi Hongzi's magic circle. After all, nothing can be more important than seeing his future brother-in-law coming.

Fortunately, it was Kidd's side. If the news from the winery was leaked incorrectly, it might endanger his safety.

By the way, by now Koizumi Akako should have confirmed that the identity of Kaito Kid is Kuroba Kaito, and Kuroba Kaito also knows that one of his classmates is the heir to the red magic.

Now that he has some free time, Xiachuan wants to know more about Koizumi Hongzi.

"Have you found any information about Red Magic and Koizumi Hongzi?" When Xia Chuan arrived at Frank's house, he asked directly without any unnecessary greetings.

Frank scratched his head and shook his head in frustration, "Magicians are unscientific! They can't possibly exist!"

After being in the dark world for many years, Frank felt ignorant for the first time.

Magic is something that supposedly only appears in fairy tales, such as Snow White and the Seven Wicked Men.

This is the first time I’ve heard of magic in real life.

Xia Chuan explained: "Magic may also be a product of technology. Maybe Koizumi Hongzi packaged it better and we didn't see it.

I was also surprised. You must have heard that on Valentine's Day, everything within a one-kilometer radius around Tokyo Tower turned red.

I got accurate information that this happened because Koizumi Hongzi set up a magic circle there."

Frank was silent. Damn the gossip! He had never heard of this news!

The red Tokyo Tower?

On Valentine's Day, he had dinner with the daughter of the IRS director at Tokyo Tower, and saw nothing except Kaito Kid.

What red Tokyo Tower? Isn’t the Tokyo Tower originally red?

Xia Chuan ignored Frank's doubts and asked, "Have you found out the family history of the Koizumi family?"

Natsukawa has a great interest in the Koizumi family.

Frank continued to shake his head. The iron gun met the steel shield, and Frank didn't get any information at all.

This so-called Koizumi Hongzi seemed to have appeared out of nowhere, and so did the Koizumi family, appearing quietly without any trace of the past.

"All right......"

Xia Chuan was a little disappointed, but this was normal. Things like magic were not in line with common sense, which was in line with common sense.

"Come to think of it, Kaito Kid's target this time is the Ekoda Clock Tower, right?"

"Yes, there are several large gems inlaid on the time hands of the clock tower. That should be Kidd's target this time. You think Koizumi Akako will also appear, so you want to go and see?" Frank smiled, and suddenly his expression looked a little weird.

Xia Chuan nodded and asked, "What's wrong?"

Although it is not known whether Koizumi Akako will attack Kid, she will definitely be there.

If she had fought Kidd once, she would have been conquered by this elegant thief.

A dignified witch was actually deceived by a magician and became completely loyal to him. Is this the loss of human nature or the distortion of morality?

“In fact, these gems have long been sold by the clock tower’s owner, Kitano Mitsutomu, and the gems now embedded in the hands are actually just fake crystals.

Because the crystal was inlaid on the hands of the nearly 100-meter-high clock tower, this matter has not been discovered. If I had not investigated and found that there was a large amount of money of unknown origin in the account of Kitano Mitsutomu's company, I might have been deceived. "

Frank took out some photocopies of jewelry transactions, and Kitano Mitsutomu sold the gems to a wealthy businessman in Europe.

Judging from the information, this wealthy businessman is quite famous. He is a top aristocrat and gem collector. Between ten years ago and eight years ago, the gem collector was visited by Kaito Kid three times.

The gems that Kaito Kidd would take a fancy to were all very large or very precious gems. Therefore, from that time on, this wealthy businessman became famous.

"Do you think Kaito Kidd knows about this?" Xia Chuan asked.

Frank shook his head. "How should I know? He probably doesn't know, otherwise he wouldn't need to send a notice and could just go to Europe to find the rich businessman.

Speaking of which, Kaito Kidd is also a weirdo. Both Kaito Kidds steal just for the sake of stealing, and they return the gems every time. What is this routine?"

Frank was a little puzzled and could only classify the father and son as theft enthusiasts.

There's nothing strange about it. The world is full of wonders. Sometimes, liking to steal things is also a disease.

Xia Chuan didn't explain. He thought for a while and then shook his head.

No matter what, the notice letter for Kuroba Kaito has been sent out, and he will definitely go. As for what will happen next, we will know when the time comes.

"Is Kitano rich?" Xia Chuan thought for a moment and said with a smile, "This kind of black-hearted entrepreneur must be wicked. You can check on the dark web. People who steal and sell gems will definitely evade taxes. You can find out for sure. He has not provided any performance data since he got the IRS certificate. It's a good opportunity to use him to fill in his performance."

"Okay." Frank nodded.

This is indeed a good choice. Identity can bring benefits and convenience, but identity also needs to be managed, and achieving results is the best way to manage it.

"Kidd will make his move tomorrow. I will also go to his company tonight to see if there is any evidence of illegal transactions. We will work together on both sides."

Then, Xia Chuan thought of something and whispered something to Frank.

Frank raised his eyebrows and smiled strangely, then nodded in disbelief.

interesting.

......

It was evening, and the detective finished his routine check-in at Teitan Elementary School and went home.
