Rebirth of Conan as a Detective

Chapter 698: The pain will pass on rainy days

"The president seems to be uncomfortable for the past two or three days, and he didn't come to the company today..."

"The reason? Is it because the in-person interview program has become obsolete, that is, Kogoro Mouri has been in full contact with this project for 24 hours, and originally thought it will be very popular... The meeting has been cancelled, and Yoko Okino, who is the commentator, is also very sorry. , The president said that he would personally apologize to Mr. Maori. Doesn’t Mr. Maori know?"

   Somei Shōgo’s cry was mixed with the sound of rain. Takagi stood on the side holding the phone that ended the call. Thinking of the explanation from Somei’s planning staff, he didn’t know what to say but didn’t know how to say.

   Gao Cheng also held the logbook and said nothing.

When Shōgo Somei took the female staff to the office a few days ago, he discovered that they were wearing a pair of watches on their hands, and the relationship between the two was extremely close. Although they deliberately kept a distance in front of others, it was obvious that they just didn’t. Talk about the relationship between couples.

   So Somei Shōgo’s actions are not without reason...

"Please believe me, Detective Joto," Akago Somei choked and grabbed Gao Cheng's trouser legs. "Maiko has been taking care of me since the establishment of the company, so I know her well. It must be Zhongmu who killed Maiko and then committed suicide by poisoning. of……"

   Somei Shōgo's eyes blurred by tears seemed to appear again as the producer of the middle eye.

   "Thanks to you, too."

"that matter?"

"Rebates! You can make a lot of money if you declare a moisture-containing production fee and return the excess to me...Is it? I thought you finally received a long-lost job and agreed to it. What a pity... "

   "Please, please wait!"

"It's okay, as long as you let her come to me, you don't have to force you... It's Miss Maizi next to you, don't you understand? You can also get a job from a small production company that was once desperate, because I like her. I want a woman who is like her to be a secretary by her side, who can do things, and she is also a beautiful woman with a good body..."

   "This, this doesn't work..."

   "The details will be discussed when you and the Maori detective come to my house the day after tomorrow..."

   "I'm sorry, President Somei..."

   Gao Cheng squatted down and raised Somei, pulling back Somei's thoughts.

"In this case, we will further investigate Miss Maiko's motives. From the situation of the scene, Miss Maizi did walk to the balcony after watching the producer of Zhongmei fall. The chairs and the coffee traces on the carpet are the best. The evidence, Miss Maizi didn't even want to hide it in the past, she should have made a decision right from the beginning...

   "She probably didn't want you to be a criminal, so she made this choice."

   Gao Cheng thought of the female staff being carried away on a stretcher.

   is very peaceful, it seems that there is no pain, at first glance it seems to be asleep in the rain...

   "Miss Maiko...I called you last, right?"

Gao Cheng suddenly asked and saw Somei Akago continue to say, "Miss Maiko was holding her mobile phone until the moment before jumping off the building, and when you arrived at the parking lot, you seemed to know that Miss Maiko was jumping off the building, if you hadn’t known in advance. What happens here will not bring the uncle and the others into the house..."

"I……"

   Somei Shōgo did not continue to listen, and did not continue to struggle to argue, lowered his head in pain and tightly grasped the palm of his hand, and walked to the corner to beat the wall silently.

   "Maiko..."

   "Mr. Somei," Mugure hesitated for a while, but he stepped forward with a groan, "Can you come to the police station with us?"

Without delay, the recovered homicide scene was quickly completed for evidence collection. The body of the producer was also taken away by the police, leaving only a humanoid trace on white tape. The coffee cup and related evidence were also taken away. Take it away for identification.

   The floor-to-ceiling windows remained open, and the evening breeze with water vapor blew into the house, and the curtains fluttered again. In order to ensure the integrity of the scene, the floor-to-ceiling windows had to be closed at the end to isolate the sound of rain.

   I don’t know why, Gao Cheng seems to have seen the figure of the female employee Maiko on the balcony...

  Walking downstairs to the apartment, Akago Somei lowered his head silently, and was taken into the police car by Takagi holding an umbrella.

   "President Somei," Gao Sung called out at the door, "Miss Maiko's motives should be related to you, right?"

Somei Akago stayed in shape, turned around with Takagi, as if thinking of something again, and muttered: "I did receive a call from Maiko at 6:30, just before Mr. Mori called me. If she resigned yesterday I was able to find out earlier... when I received the call, it was late..."

   The door of the police car was closed. After Mumu greeted Gao Cheng, he got in the car and left with Shoko Somei. Soon several police cars disappeared into the rain.

   Uncle Maori took Conan and Xiaolan standing beside him and yawned. He didn't react until the police car left, staring hurriedly: "How are we going back? Hello!"

   Xiaolan looked at the streets with no cars passing by and was worried.

   "I said I should bring two umbrellas..."

   "It doesn't matter, I drove over..."

Gao Cheng smiled, opened the umbrella and ran to the parking lot behind. The car he rented was still parked downstairs, but the roof was a little sunken, and a piece of glass was also shattered. It is estimated that he has to pay for repair fee.

   The motive of the killing is still not clear. I think it is related to the production company being oppressed by the middle eye producer. The TV station producer has a lot of energy, otherwise Shoko Somei would not be so haggard.

   But...

   Is this really good?

   Gao Cheng looked up at the balcony.

   A young life just passed away. After killing, she committed suicide. The girl is so stupid...

   For Shoko Somei, maybe the person he likes is more important than the career, and the pain is still not resolved, but further deepens.

"I said……"

   At the entrance of the apartment building, Uncle Maori tightened his coat tightly, staring at the gap of the rain curtain and looking at the time.

   "It's been half an hour... Didn't he mean to go to the parking lot to pick up the car, and then come to pick us up?"

"probably……"

   Conan tightened his neck and looked at Xiao Lan, whose head was lowered next to him.

   The weather in Tokyo is cold and cold, and it didn't take long for the autumn and winter seasons to come again. At this time, it is really not good to encounter this kind of sad case.

   I'll call Xiaolan again after I go back...

   But then again, this guy Joto is really slow to pick up a car.

  ……

   Cityto Detective Agency, it was still rainy and rainy the next day, and Gao Cheng stayed in his office to watch TV after returning the car early in the morning.

   Perhaps it was because I was used to seeing it. Although I was not emotionally affected by yesterday's case, I recovered after one night and became a little lazy because I didn't have a job.

   "So," Xiao Ai flipped through the clothing magazine and glanced at Gao Chengdao, "What did the last call say?"

"I have never said it. I only said it before I jumped down... The motive for the murder seems to be that President Somei refused to ask for a kickback to cause the program to abort, and was threatened to prevent them from gaining a foothold in the industry. Somei languished day by day..."

   Gao Cheng lay on the table and changed another TV channel~www.NovelMTL.com~ This is not good in Japan. Several big TV stations control the entire circle, and the energy of the industry’s predecessors is a bit too big...

   "She can't solve the problem at all by doing this. In fact, it's much better to come to me or Uncle Maori for help. Uncle and I are still related to the Japanese TV station."

   "Will you help?" Xiao Ai gave a white glance.

   "At least the uncle will, anyway, he would be happy to have Miss Yoko..."

Everything happened. The girl even died on the spot in front of Gao Sung. Nothing could be changed. Even a detective couldn’t predict this. Gao Sung was not so much accusing Somei two of them as being uncomfortable for his inability. .

   can only do what you can do...

   "Beep beep!" The desk phone continued to ring, Gao Cheng paused, and reached out and picked up the microphone.

   "Kito Detective Agency...Yes, I see."

   "Crack."

   Putting down the phone, Gao Cheng suddenly changed into a human spirit, and hurried to the dressing room to change into a suit and take care of it.

   "What's wrong?" Xiao Ai asked strangely.

   Gao Cheng carefully put on his watch, fastened his tie, and replaced his slippers with bright leather shoes, instantly completing his transformation from a wasteful otaku to a successful person.

   "That guy appeared..."

"Who?"

   "High, far and far away."
