Rebirth of Conan as a Detective

Chapter 357: Joker Puppet Challenge

On the 16th, the evening of the second day after Hayami Reika was kidnapped, the sunset glowed red in a forest and mountainous area.

Hayami Reika stood anxiously by the log cabin window, standing on tiptoe, trying to open the wooden frame.

"That clown... even if he takes the ransom, he won't necessarily let us go..."

The agent, Mr. Anoka, is still in the wooden house next door. I don’t know how it is now. It seems that there has been no movement...

"What are you doing?!" The door of the wooden house was suddenly opened, and the clown roared angrily, "Did I tell you? If I try to escape, I will kill you!!"

"Yeah!"

Hayami Reika didn't have time to escape, and was caught by the clown's long hair, hitting the wall and fainting on the ground.

"Humph!"

The clown closed the door again and took out the phone to contact him: "Something went wrong, and that detective saw the counterfeit money all at once... What should I do next? Why should I find a famous detective?"

"It's okay, there will always be some accidents in formal performances," the other side of the phone smiled lightly, "Just follow the plan, and it will go smoothly later."

...

On the morning of the 17th, at nearly 7 o'clock, Gao Cheng walked to Zhongyuan Station with a suitcase containing a ransom of 100 million.

Because of the counterfeit banknotes, he finally had to borrow 100 million from Suzuki's house, but he didn't expect that President Dyki had even reported the police secretly despite the warning from the criminals.

Sweeping his gaze over the police officer Mumu and others who were stalking around the station, Gao Cheng's forehead was dripping with sweat.

The gangster called again yesterday, demanding a ransom at 7 o'clock this morning, the place is north of the Zhongyuan Station where he is now, next to it is a public telephone booth with a green window.

The gangster also specifically confessed that he brought a bunch of blood-red roses as a sign...

He still remembers the original magic train incident of the death bone, especially the blood rose magic performed by Gao Yuanyao. The blood red rose seemed to be the symbol of the other party.

If this kidnapping case is really Gao Yuanyao's act, it means that he will have to confront this high IQ criminal head-on.

According to the police investigation, Gao Yuanyao's IQ is likely to exceed 300...

A high IQ does not necessarily mean how powerful it is. The remoteness and the remoteness match the ability and IQ, and it is used for crime.

Gao Cheng looked closely at the passers-by around him.

Although he won the magic train last time, to a large extent Gao Yuanyao did not take him to heart from the beginning. This time, he must be up to the point. If there is anything wrong, Hayami Lingxiang really can't be saved...

"City household brother..." Officer Mumu and others watched nervously at Gao Cheng beside the phone booth. As the second hand turned to close to 7 o'clock, they held their breaths and even heard their heartbeat clearly.

"Tick!"

At 7 o'clock on time, there was still no suspicious person, but the telephone booth rang first.

Gao Cheng paused, then put on the phone: "Hello?"

"Is it a Jiroto detective?" The voice processed by the voice changer on the other side said hoarsely, "Let's guess a mystery. There is a person next to you, so what is between the middle and the small?"

"What, what do you mean?" Gao Cheng's expression changed.

"Hmph, it's just a simple puzzle. It should be easy for a famous detective?" The voice continued, "If this phone is equipped with a bug, it won't be easy. The answer is where you are going next. See you in 5 minutes!"

Gao Cheng's face changed again and again.

The first question stumped him...

Looking around, looking for possible locations within a 5-minute distance, the detective badge on his body suddenly rang.

"Kido," Kudo Shinichi made a voice, "I heard Haibara say everything..."

Near Zhongyuan Station, Conan and Huiyuan stood on the side of the road, observing the surroundings while holding a bow-tie transforming device to communicate.

"The location is at the drugstore across from the station, did you see it?"

"Ahhh."

Seeing the towering billboard, Gao Cheng didn't bother to ask more, and hurried across the road to the only pharmacy.

"Mr. Kioto, please come to the cashier, there is your call..." Gao Cheng was stopped by the radio before he ran into the store, and quickly grabbed the receiver in the surprised eyes of the cashier.

"Hey!"

"Haha," said with a hoarse voice, "the index finger next to your thumb, and the ring finger medicine finger between the **** and the little finger, so the answer is the pharmacy. This difficult question is easy for you, right?"

Gao Cheng gritted his teeth: "Where are you? If you dare to hurt the hostages, I will never let you go!"

"Humph," the voice continued, "Then it depends on whether you are worthy of cooperation. Now you walk about 4 kilometers north along the avenue and take the bus bound for Miyanosawa Plateau which departs at 7:20... After getting on the bus, pay attention to the right side of the driving direction of the bus, there are beautiful scenery waiting for you!"

"What? Four or four kilometers!"

"You better hurry up, this bus only runs once a day, if you miss it, there will be no more!"

"hateful!"

Gao Cheng glanced at the time, quickly ran out of the drugstore with his suitcase, and sprinted north across the congested road.

It happened during the morning rush hour. The distance of 4 kilometers was terrible. It usually takes less than an hour, but now he is only given a short ten minutes.

"Huh!"

The bus station was just opposite the tram tracks. Gao Cheng rushed over, panting, and finally saw the shuttle bus that had not had time to depart, but when the tram passed by, the railing lowered one step in advance to block the road.

Gao Cheng breathed a sigh of relief. Seeing that the shuttle bus was about to depart, he jumped up, ignoring the shouts of the guards. He stepped on the railing and flew into the air, dashing past the galloping tram and landed on the opposite side.

Mumu and the others panted to catch up. They only had time to see two trams in opposite directions passing by the intersection, and they all touched their throats. He was relieved until a high-level voice came from the headset.

"Great, I succeeded in catching up." Mumu wore a communication headset on his right ear. After confirming Gao Cheng's safety, he said to Gao Mu, who was tired of a dog next to him. "We are also taking a taxi to keep up, and try not to let the gangsters. Find!"

"Yes!"

On the shuttle bus bound for Miyanosawa Plateau, except for the driver, there was only one Gaocheng, and the whole car was empty.

After confirming the communication, Gao Cheng looked to the right side of the shuttle bus as the gangster said. After leaving the city, it was just ordinary mountain and forest scenery, and there was no special place to see.

"Kojito brother," Mumu asked, "what's the situation now?"

Gao Cheng glanced at the driver and replied in a low voice: "I don't know yet, the other party asked me to look to the right side of the driving direction..."

"Huh!"

Suddenly a line of words flashed in front of Gao Cheng's eyes, and when he looked back, he found "Get off the car immediately" on the road guardrail.

"parking!"

Gao Cheng stood up abruptly and shouted to the driver: "Trouble you to stop the car!"

"Huh?" The driver was inexplicable, "Can't stop here!"

"That's too late!"

Gao Cheng opened the door of the car urgently and jumped out with his suitcase. He tumbling to stabilize his body amidst the horrified voice of the driver, he rushed to the guardrail where the word was written just now.

The driver stepped on the brake and watched Gao Cheng run back in shock.

"Too, too crazy..."

The shuttle bus didn't go too far. Gao Chengcai ran for a while and saw the handwritten guardrail again. He wiped his sweat but did not see a half-person figure. Finally, he finally found a note with spellings on the back of the guardrail.

"If you walk along the mountain road, you will see a suspension bridge over the Otaki River~www.NovelMTL.com~You must arrive by 8:30!"

Gao Cheng looked at the time and found that there was only one hour left.

It was as if he was torturing him to play. Rao had been exercising at ordinary times and was a bit exhausted. He actually had to travel the mountain for an hour, obviously not enough time.

"Police Officer Megumi," Gao Cheng looked at the surrounding mountains, picked up the communicator and said, "There is a note on the side of the road, let me go to the suspension bridge on the Otaki River."

"That's good!" Mumu said solemnly, "We will follow right away. Once we find a gangster, try to delay for a while!"

"I try my best."

Gao Cheng let out a sigh of relief.

The mountain road is another challenge, but even if the other party is really trying to play him, he has to go over it. Now he is the only one who can save the two hostages.

If even Hayami Lingxiang can't be saved, how can I protect Xiao Ai from the hands of the black organization...
