Chapter 2163 Detective Xiaolan (a Waste Cat Who Failed to Evolve because of Sleeping Too Much)
For Fangzheng, solving Kyosuke Futo was just a matter of effort, and after that, he returned to his work—after all, he has been busy with business recently.
"Good job."
Looking at the contract and report in his hand, Fangzheng nodded in satisfaction, and looked at Mingmei in front of him.
"Thanks a lot."
"It's okay, as you said, Mr. Fangzheng, the problems that money can solve are not problems...but I originally wanted to buy a few American companies..."
"Don't care about their life or death."
Of course, Fangzheng knew why Mingmei would mention this to him specifically. Since he made that announcement in front of the world, the U.S. stock market fell immediately, and Nasdaq was even worse. Not only that, although the U.S. government stated that they would do everything in their power to fight against those evil terrorists, the guerrilla warfare supported by Founder still made them feel devastated. Among other things, if I blow up your trucks and railways, it will be enough to stagnate your economic circulation, and once the economic circulation stops, you will not be far from the end of the United States.
Therefore, many companies now have plans to leave the United States, and many of them are planning to move their headquarters to Asia or Europe.
After all, no one wants their cruise ship to be blown up suddenly one day, right?
Although the U.S. government had sent people from various channels to try to find the mysterious figure Fang Zheng, Fang Zheng did not respond at all. His attitude is very simple, no negotiation, no compromise, don't give up if you can't kill you, if you have the ability to throw nuclear bombs in the United States, I will lose if you can get nuclear bombs out of North America.
Anyway, the number of North America burned by Lao Tzu is not one, two, three or four. Are you afraid of N+1? I just want to be the final boss of this world, no one can do it.
Because of this, it can be said that people and capital have fled to the United States. Although the United States has stepped up security checks at the airport, it is useless at all. Founder directly arranged for those people to point surface-to-air rockets at the passenger plane outside. A blast. And it only takes domestic flights. Anyway, the United States, without planes, blowing up railways and destroying trucks, is basically half paralyzed.
This also made the US representative incompetent and furious, and denounced these terrorists at the UN General Assembly for having no bottom line and no respect for human rights at all. However, Fangzheng turned a deaf ear to this, bullshit human rights have nothing to do with me, acted as if you respected some conventions when you invaded other countries, now you hit your own heads and demanded human rights conventions?
Go dreaming.
Besides, in Fangzheng's eyes, Americans are not human beings, and they are not suitable to enjoy the treatment of human rights conventions.
"Next our main business will be in Asia and then Europe."
Fangzheng clicked on the contract in his hand and looked at Mingmei.
"Let's focus on real estate. Control a few more pieces of land. The location should be good. Of course, don't let go of the bad ones. Those suburban places can be taken if they can be taken. Even if the American company is transferred, the choice is limited. It will be more convenient if you have land to trade with them."
"Ok, any more questions?"
"Let's find some assistants."
"assistant?"
"That's right."
Seeing Mingmei staring at him in surprise, Fangzheng shrugged his shoulders.
"You can't do everything by yourself. Xiao Ai has protested to me many times, saying that you are too busy to stay home. Besides, these are just ordinary business processes, and it doesn't matter who you ask to do them."
"Is it really okay? Don't you need to keep it secret?"
Hearing this, Mingmei was more or less taken aback. After all, she came from the Black Organization, so she was used to the secrecy within the organization. So after coming to Fangzheng's place, Mingmei also subconsciously felt that this place, like the organization in black, needed to be kept secret, so she basically did everything by herself.
"Of course not. You see, there are two maids at home. What is there to keep secret? You don't need to do things that are really confidential. For now, you just need to live your own life. You see Ai Duo enjoys her primary school life. You should also relax a bit. Let’s go outside sometime another day. Although it’s not easy to go abroad now, why go to deep mountains and old forests, or hot spring hotels, or isolated islands on the beach... ...Oh yes, you reminded me to buy a private island, and we will go to the island when we go on vacation in the future, so we don't have to worry about meeting some elementary school student who is a death god and getting in a bad mood."
"no problem."
Mingmei also smiled and nodded. In fact, she thought about it carefully and found that it was the same. Although her work is important, it is also important in the general business scope. The work she does can't be known by outsiders.
Like robbing a bank or something...
"Jingle Bell………"
At this moment, Fang Zheng's cell phone rang. He glanced at the cell phone, and then made a gesture to Ming Mei. The latter also nodded, and then turned and left the office. Then Fangzheng picked up the phone.
"Hello? Xiaolan? It's rare for you to call me. What's the matter?"
"That...Mr. Fangzheng, I'm sorry, do you have time? I have something I want to discuss with you..."
"Of course, no problem."
It was rare for Xiaolan to call him, Fangzheng was naturally invited to go, and when he arrived at the coffee shop he had agreed to, he found that not only Xiaolan, but also Conan and Yuanzi were there...
After that, Fangzheng also learned about the situation from them. Yesterday, Xiaolan and Yuanzi almost encountered a car accident on the way, and a lady named Chie Yoshino drove the car. She said that she was not feeling well, so she drove improperly and almost had an accident. Of course, these are not important. The important thing is that Xiaolan heard from Ms. Yoshino Chie that she recently got 100 million yuan in insurance, and although her husband seemed very kind and caring to Ms. Yoshino Chie on the surface, but Some details made Xiaolan feel that the husband didn't seem to like Ms. Yoshino Chie as much as he showed.
"I see."
Fangzheng put down the coffee in his hand and looked at Xiaolan.
"So you suspect that the other party is planning to kill Ms. Yoshino Chie for the purpose of cheating insurance, right?"
"Ok……………"
Hearing Fangzheng's answer, Xiaolan nodded dejectedly, and Yuanzi also said hastily.
"It may also be the reason for cutting corners in the decoration. I also said that I would ask someone I know to come and test it."
"It should be said that you hope to cut corners, right."
However, what Fangzheng said next surprised both Conan and Yuanzi, while Xiaolan nodded.
"Well, as Mr. Fangzheng said, if it's cutting corners...that's fine, if it's not..."
"That means that Mr. Yoshino wants to kill his wife, and he persuaded his wife to invest 100 million yuan in accident insurance. His motive is clear. In the eyes of outsiders, Mr. Yoshino's love for his wife may be just an illusion. In this way Even if Mrs. Yoshino died unexpectedly, no one would suspect that her husband killed her."
Hearing this, Conan also became excited.
"But we haven't thought about his modus operandi. Although Xiaolan thinks that Mr. Yoshino deliberately used polluted materials to build the house, but I think..."
"But you don't care about such small things, do you?"
However, Fangzheng didn't care about Conan's words at all, but stared at Xiaolan.
"It doesn't matter what the modus operandi is, and that's not what you're worried about, is it?"
"Ok………"
Hearing this, Xiaolan nodded again.
"I'm really scared, in case...my guess is correct, I don't know how to tell Mrs. Yoshino...she really loves her husband deeply, and hopes to live with her husband forever I am living a happy life, and I am working hard for it. But if I tell her that her husband is actually just trying to use her and try to kill her to get compensation, then Mrs. Yoshino does not know how sad she will be... "
“…………………”
Hearing this, Conan opened his mouth, not knowing what to say. He originally thought that Xiaolan was troubled by the problem of not being able to see through the criminal's criminal methods, but in fact...it was not the case.
This is the difference between a man and a woman, learn a little bit, kid.
Fangzheng glanced at Conan, women are emotional creatures after all, especially a kind girl like Xiaolan, she is not the same as a heartless reasoning maniac like you.
"You have experienced many cases before, right? Why do you have such an idea?"
"Although I did follow Shinichi and Dad..."
Speaking of this, Xiaolan glanced at Conan quickly.
"I have experienced many cases, but how to say at that time... I feel that I am just a bystander. Indeed, sometimes I feel pain for what happened to those murderers, and I also suffer from the conflicts and misunderstandings between them. Regret and sadness, but I never knew that when I really stood in this position, the pressure would be so great..."
Having said this, Xiaolan clenched her fists tightly and placed them on her chest.
"I'm so scared. If my reasoning is correct, then I will ruin Mrs. Yoshino's happiness, but if I turn a blind eye to this, Mrs. Yoshino may also die. This pressure is really great, I don't know What kind of mood did Shinichi and the others come to solve the case... But, I am really scared. Should I tell Mrs. Yoshino? Should I call the police? Maybe I can discuss with Mr. Yoshino and tell him that I have See through his plot and ask him to stop? I...I don't know what to do..."
"orchid……………"
Looking at Xiaolan who was troubled, Sonoko and Conan stopped talking at this time.
"very good."
However, Fang Zheng's answer surprised the three of them.
"very good?"
"That's right, this shows that Xiaolan, you have already considered the problem from this perspective, and there is only one problem left, and that is your belief."
"belief………?"
"That's right. In fact, detectives really want to see the truth, but they don't necessarily know how to tell it. You have also experienced many cases, and you should know that many murderers commit crimes for reasons that are unavoidable. For example, the law cannot Sanction them, so you have to take revenge on yourself... But what do you think? Do you think these people deserve what they deserve, or should they be let go?"
"I……………"
"This is your belief. It involves a question of what you want to protect. The police are the enforcers of the law, so whether they are right or wrong, they must enforce the law. Therefore, no matter how difficult the murderer is, as long as the criminal It's not what they think, it's the job of the police. But that's not the case with detectives. As you said, you can hide from Mrs. Yoshino, and then threaten Mr. Yoshino that you have seen through him. It’s a trick to ask him to stop. But does it really work? Can it save Mrs. Yoshino’s family and life?”
"........."
"Only you can find the answer to this question, but I can tell you the modus operandi right now."
"Huh? Really?"
Hearing this, Conan was taken aback, but he knew that Fangzheng didn't like reasoning very much.
"Of course, it's actually very simple. You see, according to what you said, Mrs. Yoshino has invested 100 million yuan in accident insurance. The insurance company is not very enthusiastic when you pay the money, and it denies you in every possible way when you ask for money. So according to what you said, Xiaolan, it is not only time-consuming and laborious, but it is also difficult for the insurance company to determine that it is within the scope of compensation. Since Mr. Yoshino is a salesman of the insurance company, he must know this better than anyone else, so Xiaolan, you The method mentioned is actually very risky, and the insurance company is likely to refuse to pay on the grounds of non-accidental accidents."
"this……………"
Hearing this, Conan was also stunned. He originally thought that Fangzheng would look for criminal methods from some angle, but he didn't expect it to be from a business angle—well, they really couldn't think of this angle.
After all, they are still students.
"So the easiest, most direct and most convenient thing is a car accident. Considering what you said, Mrs. Yoshino often feels dizzy and uncomfortable, plus she needs to drive from here to work in Shizuoka, and the weather is hot...the probability of an accident is very high. , I think it is very likely that the other party did something to the car."
"I see!"
Hearing this, Conan's eyes lit up.
"Xiaolan... sister! Do you still remember what Mrs. Yoshino said when we first met?"
"Well, she said that the weather is hot and cold recently, as long as you don't go to school or the weather is cool..."
Speaking of this, Xiaolan was also taken aback for a moment.
"Could it be...the air conditioner?"
"That's right, he must have sprayed something poisonous on the car's air conditioner, that's why Mrs. Yoshino felt uncomfortable."
Conan nodded vigorously.
"Mrs. Yoshino also said that she is fine when she does not go to school or when the weather is cool, and she usually does not turn on the air conditioner in this kind of weather, so there is no problem. But when the weather is hot, it is necessary to turn on the air conditioner. Turn on the air conditioner, and then you will feel uncomfortable! And, even if there is an accident, it will be difficult to detect the problem!"
"It seems that you have already got the answer."
Looking at the eyes of the two, Fangzheng chuckled.
Next, let him see the result of the first joint cooperation of the famous detective partners.
