Stay away from Conan

Chapter 283 Noguchi Miki’s Attitude

After Suzuki Sonoko's words were cut off, the mechanical sound sounded again:

"Diamond, when will it be ready?"

"No matter how much my father likes to collect diamonds, diamonds worth one billion yen are not so easy to get! You still have to give us about an hour!"

Noguchi Miki said with a pleading tone.

"Okay, I will contact you again in an hour."

The call was hung up at this point. With trembling hands, Noguchi Miki put the phone back on the table.

"The time is too short to determine the location of the kidnapper."

It's a bit regretful, Takagi Wataru said.

"It would be nice if the phone call could be delayed a little longer, so we could determine the location of the kidnapper and other circumstances."

Kogoro said with a serious expression.

"Then let's try it instead!"

Miki Noguchi said this with a trembling tone, but a slightly displeased mood could be clearly heard.

"Okay, Miss Miki has behaved very well."

Officer Megure said.

"In short... the voice on the phone just now is undoubtedly Suzuki Sonoko's. In this way, we can confirm her life safety. At the same time, Miss Yuri's life safety has also been confirmed from Sonoko's mouth."

Kogoro immediately changed the subject and saved face.

"But the kidnapper is indeed a very smart guy."

Gao Yuan said thoughtfully.

"Huh? Why do you say that?"

Takagi Wataru asked.

"Just now, Ms. Sonoko tried her best to convey some information to us. When she mentioned that she was wearing headphones, blindfolded, and wearing a mask with a strong scent of perfume, the kidnapper didn't know what method he used to stop her. Go on. In other words, these things should be worn by the kidnappers. "

"So? How does this show that the kidnapper is smart?"

Kogoro said with some disdain.

"Generally speaking, it is normal for kidnappers to cover the eyes of hostages. However, the ears are generally not blocked."

Gao Yuan explained:

"If you can hear sounds with your ears, you can roughly judge your location from the surrounding sounds. Such as the sound of construction, the sound of trams, etc. No matter what the sound is, it is at least an important clue. In the same way, The function of the nose is similar. If you can smell some smell, it can also be used as a clue to find the whereabouts of the hostages. "

"However, Yuanzi was deprived of all senses of sight, hearing, and smell."

Xiaolan fell into deep thought after hearing this.

"Well, my opponent this time is just like what Brother Mingzhi said. He is a guy who can even think of using the coffin. It's very difficult to deal with him."

Officer Megure nodded with deep feeling.

"But no matter what, you must catch him!"

Noguchi Miki said anxiously:

"Otherwise, because of my sister's stupidity, more than half of the large inheritance that my father finally left us will be taken away casually by others!"

"Indeed!"

Kogoro thought about it for a moment, and nodded with deep sympathy, "If diamonds worth one billion yen were taken away all at once, it would be a huge loss."

"But it was said on the show that because Miss Yuri and Miss Miki are half-sisters, their relationship is not good. Now it seems that the relationship between the two is actually very good because they can prepare so much money for my sister."

Xiaolan said happily.

But what he didn't expect was that when Noguchi Miki heard this, his eyebrows suddenly stood up:

"If my sister was killed because I was stingy and didn't pay the ransom, I would be widely reported by the media and criticized by the public. I didn't want to be like that, so I had to pay."

Noguchi Miki was a little annoyed and spoke out her true thoughts, while Kamoshida on the side tried to stop Noguchi Miki's excitement:

"Miss Miki, you have gone too far."

"What's too much? Kamoshida, let's just fill the box with low-quality diamonds and hand it over to the kidnappers."

Angry, Miki Noguchi said.

"Huh? But, in that case, Miss Yuri's life is safe..."

Kamoshida said, bewildered.

"It doesn't matter. If all the diamonds worth one billion yen are handed over, the Noguchi family will be completely wiped out."

Noguchi Miki said proudly:

"And the second lady of the wealthy Suzuki family was also kidnapped, right? If anything happens to her, our company will be completely destroyed by the Suzuki family immediately. By then, the only thing we can rely on is diamonds. Well? Haven’t you already thought of this situation?”

Kamoshida couldn't refute, so he could only bow his head silently.

"Sonoko's father is not the kind of person who would cause trouble for the Noguchi family's company just because his daughter was kidnapped!"

After hearing these words, Xiaolan said angrily:

"He must be worried about Miss Yuri's safety just as he is worried about his own daughter!"

"Hmph! Then who knows?"

Noguchi Miki said coldly, "What if Miss Sonoko doesn't come back alive and kicking, how can you still be as confident as you are now?"

"ah?"

After hearing this, Xiaolan was speechless.

"Well, what Miss Miki said is possible."

Kogoro clasped his hands in front of the murderer and said, "If it were me, if something happened to Xiaolan, I would never let go of anyone involved in the matter!"

"dad!"

Hearing what Kogoro said, Xiaolan blinked and tears were about to fall.

In response to this, Conan, who was looking at the strange atmosphere in the room at the moment, couldn't help but feel speechless and angry at the same time - this lady would actually say such a thing at such a time, she really has no education at all! She can't understand the priorities of things!

Thinking like this, Conan was suddenly a little surprised and found that Gao Yuan was facing away from everyone at this time, covering his mouth with one hand, and his shoulders were shaking, as if he was trying his best to hide his emotions——

Mr. Akechi... is he laughing?

And Hui Yuan Ai, who was standing next to him, also had her back to everyone, and was pulling on the corner of his clothes, saying in a low voice:

"Hey! You should be more careful!"

Looking at this scene, Conan felt at a loss, so he quietly came over and asked in a low voice:

"Hey! Mr. Mingzhi, what did you find?"

In response, Gao Yuan seemed to have calmed down and let out a short sigh. Without directly explaining to Conan, he turned around and said to everyone:

"Whether it's Miss Sonoko or Miss Yuri, I will let them come back safely."

"Brother Mingzhi is right. Please believe in our police!"

Officer Megure’s expression was sincere, expressing the determination of the police.

"Hmph, I want to trust you, but the Japanese police are not as good as they used to be, okay?"

Noguchi Miki said with a somewhat disdainful snort.

"Ms. Miki, you really went too far! And this is at a time when the police are investigating so desperately!"

Kamoshida couldn't help but criticize.

In response, Noguchi Miki turned her face away angrily and ignored her at all. And everyone around them didn't know what to say for a moment.

So, taking this opportunity, Gao Yuan explained to Conan in a low voice:

"Conan, don't you think it's strange? Since Miss Sonoko has been deprived of her senses of sight, hearing, and smell, how does she know that Miss Yuri is still awake due to sleeping pills? Moreover, this Miss Miki, after the kidnapper finished the call, The attitude has changed a bit too much.”

Hearing this, although Conan was slightly confused, he still didn't quite understand why Gao Yuan laughed just now.

However, Suzuki Sonoko and Noguchi Yuri are still in the hands of the kidnappers, and rescuing them from the kidnappers is the most important thing right now.

At this moment, Xiaolan's cell phone rang...
