Daily life of a spy in the world of Conan

Unexpectedly!

The treasure that our Mamiya family has been searching for for many years was actually found by a few children. I have long seen that these children are smart, brave and clever, but I didn't expect that they would give me such a big surprise tonight."

"Surprise?" Xia Chuan frowned. Could it be that this guy didn't see the scenery?

Oh yes, he pulled out the key, so people can’t open the window and can’t see, right?

He glanced at her with pity, shook his head and said no more. Let him be happy for a while, he would cry later.

As for the egg of memories in their hands, the Mamiya family should forget about it.

"By the way, something happened down there. Conan and I have called the police, and they will be here soon."

"Is there really a secret passage?"

Mamiya Mitsuru was shocked and puzzled. He had been in the castle for four years and had almost turned the ground over but hadn't found anything. Yet, these people had found the secret passage and his father-in-law's treasure in less than half a day.

Xiachuan nodded, then fixed his gaze on the secret passage behind the painting. Conan had just taken the key from him and had now gone in.

Mamiya Mitsuru did not follow, since he could not open the door without the key. He was more curious about what was in the basement and what had happened that required him to call the police.

By the way, calling the police won’t affect his inheritance of the Mamiya family’s treasure, right?

But it's too late to stop it now, and it looks like the killing of Mamiya Dai will have to be postponed for a while.

"Mrs. Mamiya has actually been dead for four years. The current Mamiya is impersonated by a man named Nishikawa Mutsumi. I wonder if you know this person." Xiachuan asked.

I heard the name Nishikawa Mumi from Katsuo Tanagan, so I think Mitsuru Mamiya should know him.

"what?"

It took Mitsuru Mamiya a while to recover from this surprise. In his mind, there was not only astonishment but also unstoppable surprise.

Good guy, he doesn’t have to do anything himself. The main competitor is dead, and the only one left is Mamiya Nobuto. Even if he doesn’t take action against him, he can still get at least half of the property.

Xia Chuan spoke slowly and explained the following situation in detail to the other party.

Since Mitsuru Mamiya did not take action against Haibara and the others, there was no harm in telling him about this. With the letter, the ownership of the Egg of Memories had nothing to do with Mitsuru Mamiya and Takato Mamiya, so he was not worried at all.

Moreover, if Conan is around, this matter will definitely not be able to be concealed. When Inspector Megure comes and Conan finds out that he has hidden the Egg of Memories, he will definitely tell the truth secretly.

"Egg of Memories..." Mamiya Mitsuru showed an envious look, then remembered that Natsukawa had just mentioned the key, and immediately turned back and went into the secret passage, wanting to see with Conan what the so-called treasure was.

With treasures like that in the basement, the top floor shouldn't be any worse.

As for the Egg of Memory, he also saw the letter, and Xia Chuan told him some legal knowledge. He already knew that the Egg of Memory had nothing to do with him.

Although I was a little disappointed, when I thought about the window in the top floor space that was still glowing, the treasure behind it must be more precious than the Egg of Memory!

It was almost dawn and the fiery red sun appeared at the end of the horizon.

The police car arrived late, and Officer Megure looked tired.

"Brother Natsukawa, did you really catch a killer?" asked Officer Megure.

Xia Chuan nodded, then glanced at Tian Yanshengnan who had already woken up and said, "I just asked, his killer code name is Drunkard Peanut, and he came to this castle twelve years ago."

Inspector Megure nodded when he heard this and looked back at Takagi Wataru.

Takagi Shigeru nodded and left, probably to check if this code name had any criminal record.

When they arrived at the hall, the first thing they saw was the crooked oil painting.

"Hey, what happened to him?"

Inspector Megure was a little curious when he noticed Mitsuru Mamiya slumped against the wall below the painting.

Mamiya Mitsuru had a dull expression, his eyes were bloodshot, and his hair was messy from being scratched by himself. Now he wanted to take down his father-in-law's oil painting and throw it on the ground, and use his size 43 leather shoes to wash the other person's face.

What a bully!

The treasure turned out to be a landscape, a landscape!

What a vicious taste! He has been here for four years for the puzzle and has to look at Mamiya's face every day, but the result is so sloppy, damn!

"It seems that he couldn't accept the shock..." Xia Chuan shook his head, "His father-in-law left behind a treasure, and when he found it just now, he found that the treasure was a landscape. The scenery was probably too beautiful for him to recover for a while."

"is it?"

Inspector Megure felt that there was more disappointment in the other person's expression.

Under the leadership of Natsukawa, Inspector Megure went to the rooftop and the secret room and finally understood the whole case.

The 200-pound Inspector Megure was so tired that he kept wiping cold sweat, but he still smiled.

"Brother Natsukawa, it looks like you'll have to treat us some other day!" Inspector Megure teased. If this egg of memories is really ownerless, then the first person who discovers it will become the owner of the egg of memories, and that person is Natsukawa.

As for Conan, because he is a minor, he is protected by the Juvenile Law and does not participate in the distribution of lost property.

"No problem. If it works, I will definitely give the search team a generous thank you fee."

Officer Megure nodded and had the Egg of Memory taken away. "But before that, it needs to be identified and investigated. It should be done quickly, so you don't need to worry about that."

Xia Chuan waved his hand: "Of course, I trust Officer Megure very much. I hope that Officer Megure can publicize it more and spread the news to see if he can find a buyer by the way."

While the two were having a friendly conversation, Mitsuru Mamiya pushed aside the police officer and ran up to them.

"Xiachuan, this egg of memories is the legacy left by my father-in-law. How can it be considered ownerless? It is the property of our Mamiya family!"

Compared to when he just came out of the secret passage, Mamiya Mitsuru's mood had changed drastically.

It is true that the scenery is beautiful, but how much is it worth?

The Egg of Memories sounds extremely valuable, it should be sold for at least a few billion, right?

There is no harm without comparison, he felt jealous.

"Mr. Mamiya Mitsuru, this is wrong. You have read the letter left by old man Mamiya. It is clearly written in black and white that this egg of memories does not belong to him. He is only the custodian.

When the custodian dies and the owner cannot be found, the first person who discovers this thing will inherit the Egg of Memory. This is clearly stated in the law, and we are also acting in accordance with the law. Please don't make things difficult for Mr. Xiachuan. Moreover, the identification of the Egg of Memory has not been completed yet, and we still need to find the original owner.

In short, everything is still unknown, no matter what, please keep a calm mind. "

Inspector Megure spoke eloquently, but his bias was still very obvious.

There's no other way. Xia Chuan said that if this thing is sold, he will donate 20% of the cost to the Third Department of Investigation Section 1.

Who can stand this?

Whether used as funding or as bonuses, quite a few of them are used.

Moreover, Xiachuan picked it up openly, it was not stolen or anything like that, and there was an envelope issued by Mr. Mamiya as proof.

"I don't care, my lord, just say something!!"

Mamiya Mitsuru turned around and looked at Mamiya Kinito.

Takato Mamiya was so sleepy that he didn't even notice the police coming. He was forcibly pulled up by Mitsuru Mamiya. He just felt confused at this moment.

"Um, why were grandma and Tian Yanshengnan arrested? And why are there so many police officers in our house? Was the castle robbed?"

Officer Megure rolled his eyes, waved his hand and asked Takagi Shigeru to take the other party aside to explain, and then warned Mamiya Mitsuru with a serious face, "Mr. Mamiya Mitsuru, please control your emotions, and you didn't see clearly what your father-in-law wrote on the back of the window."

"I would like to give this castle and this view to the first person who finds it.

In fact, you only need to do a note identification to confirm whether this passage is a message from your father-in-law. If it is, this passage can be used as a will and has legal effect.

The first person to find it will get the castle, and the first person to find the scenery, need I say more, right?"

Mamiya Mitsuru glanced at Natsukawa, feeling a little aggrieved.

"Haha, Mr. Mamiya Mitsuru, I won't take the Egg of Memories for nothing. I won't fight with you for the ownership of this castle. Just pretend that I have never been there and you found it by yourselves."

It is clearly the castle of the Mamiya family, but it was "gifted" by Natsukawa. I really don't know what to say.

Even Mr. Mamiya himself probably didn't expect that the secret of this castle would eventually be revealed by an outsider.

Mamiya Mitsuru was still a little conflicted. Although the castle was big, it was really worthless!

"It's already a huge fortune for Xiachuan to return the ownership of the castle to you. Don't be ungrateful!" Inspector Megure warned the other party.

Xia Chuan stood nearby, stroking his chin, wondering what he was thinking about.

After a while, he said, “In fact, if the Mamiya family is willing, I can pay to buy this castle and let you two convert the real estate into cash.

This castle is located in a remote area with inconvenient transportation. It takes an hour to see people outside. Normally, no one would be willing to buy it. Is that why you want the Egg of Memory?"

"this......"

Mamiya Mitsuru looked evasive, as if Natsukawa had guessed his thoughts.

"So, after thinking for a long time, I made a decision that went against my ancestors - to buy the castle!"

Natsukawa spoke righteously, but Conan knew that Natsukawa was not someone who would suffer any loss. The wounds of Mamiya Dai and Tian En Katsuo were the best proof of this.

But what was the point of buying this remote castle? Conan couldn't figure it out.

"Really? How much are you prepared to pay?"

Xia Chuan held up two fingers: "Two billion yen!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked.

Conan didn't expect that Natsukawa was so rich. Inspector Megure was also surprised. He didn't expect that Natsukawa, who usually kept a low profile, could suddenly come up with 2 billion to buy a castle.

Anya looked at the three little ones proudly, as if saying: Look, this is my family fortune, and when father dies, all this property will be mine.

Haibara Ai rubbed her chin and thought that she could make more expensive requests next time.

Dr. Agasa licked his lips and planned to make some new inventions when he returned, hold a promotion meeting for Natsukawa, and let the other party invest another billion or eight billion in his scientific research project.

"So many!" Mamiya Mitsuru's eyes widened.

The cost of building this castle is actually more than 2 billion if converted into the construction price of this era, but due to its bad location, its value is greatly reduced. It is already horrible to be able to sell it for 2 billion.

It’s not like there were people who had their eyes on this place before, but the highest bid from those wealthy people was only 1 billion, and Xia Chuan’s bid was doubled.

He is such a rich man!

"Sell! Sell it to you!" After learning the details from Takagi's explanation, Mamiya Takato heard Natsukawa's offer from afar. She was filled with sadness over her grandmother's death, and ran over to hold Natsukawa's hand and was about to sign the contract, as if she was afraid that Natsukawa would run away.

Both parties were very satisfied because Xiachuan spent 2 billion and the Blue Castle incident came to an end. The two remaining people in the Mamiya family were very satisfied with the price.

Under the urging of the two people from the Mamiya family, the contract was signed within three days, and the money was deposited into the accounts of the two as agreed.

From then on, this castle had nothing to do with the Mamiya family, and the surname was changed to Xia.

In fact, Xia Chuan did not act rashly, this castle is not completely useless.

Although it cost 2 billion, it was still a small amount compared to the wealth that the Egg of Memory could bring him.

The style of this castle is very retro, with intricate secret passages and dark rooms inside. Xia Chuan plans to transform it into an adventure house.

The concept of escape room had not yet appeared in this era, so if this castle is slightly modified, it will become a perfect escape room map.

By then, we can cooperate with some companies, such as the Suzuki Group or the Ryomoto Group, and these wealthy groups to build this place into a team-building tourist destination. I believe that we will be able to earn back the 2 billion soon.

Or it can be transformed into a hotel B&B to provide a quiet environment for cultural creators, and they can climb to the top floor to enjoy the mountain scenery when they have nothing to do.

This is what the Japanese creators are into, so the market shouldn’t be bad either. The key point is that they all have money!

You could even dig a few small ponds, boil some hot water and set up a hot spring homestay.

In short, the hidden value of the castle is very high, but the people of the Mamiya family could not figure out how to cash in on the castle, otherwise they would have made a fortune long ago.

Anyway, Xia Chuan will definitely not lose money with 2 billion, and there is no need for decoration. The decoration style here is very atmospheric.

(There is another chapter at 6 o'clock, please give me a monthly ticket at the end of the month)

Chapter 258 Guanxi Black Chicken Visits

After Xia Chuan signed the contract and prepared the plan, he handed it to Frank. He provided the money and Frank provided the work, and they made money together, like good brothers sharing the joys and sorrows.

He actually doesn't have much interest in this kind of thing, he just happens to do it when he encounters it.

He also didn't want Mitsuru Mamiya to come to his house and nag him for no reason. After all, this guy had stayed in the castle for four years for the treasure and his perseverance was amazing.

The news of the Egg of Memories spread like wildfire in Tokyo and even throughout Neon. Suzuki Jirokichi was like a shark that smelled fish, and with the help of Suzuki Sonoko, he finally met Natsukawa.

It will take some time to determine whether the Egg of Memory is ownerless, but Suzuki Jirokichi already knows the details.

He has already received detailed information from the Metropolitan Police Department.

The Metropolitan Police Department learned from the killer "Drunkard Peanut", also known as Tian Yan Shengnan, that the person who came to the castle to take the Egg of Memory was killed by him more than ten years ago.

It was an assassination mission. When Tian Yan Shengnan was tracking and investigating the other party, he accidentally discovered that the other party planned to go to Neon to retrieve the egg of memory left there by his grandfather.

Tian Yan Shengnan was originally from Japan. After capturing and interrogating the other party, he knew the value of the Egg of Memory, which was a precious cultural relic that could allow him to retire on the spot.
