Chapter 3771: Still Outrageous

Chapter 3776 Still outrageous

"Thank you very much for your kind reminder." Chi Feichi did not change his mind and explained his thoughts carefully to Maori Kogoro, "However, I still feel that there is no need for Yuesui to give up his hobby. I am not worried about her following me. Instead of arguing, I want to support her in doing something she enjoys.”

"Oh, I knew this would be like this... Since you have already made your decision, I won't go into details," Mouri Kogoro said with a clear expression of "I knew this would be like this" and quickly talked about another thing. , "By the way, Fei Chi, I'm going to meet with the client next. I made an appointment with the client at 3 p.m. Meet me, the time is almost up, please drive me there by the way! I used the map on my mobile phone to check the meeting place mentioned by the client in advance. It is on the street where Mihua Tower Apartment is located. Please drive your car! Just go to a convenient parking place nearby, and I’ll walk there when the time comes!”

"No problem," Chi Feichi drove the car into another lane and prepared to turn at the intersection, "So does the teacher still have work to do today?"

"It was a temporary commission," Mouri Kogoro explained. "While you were doing the examination in the morning, I received a call from the client. The client said that he had received a murder notice and was worried that someone would do harm to him. , wanted to meet with me to discuss it, because the other party said I am free this afternoon, so we made an appointment to meet at three in the afternoon. I was originally thinking that if you haven't finished the examination at 2:30 in the afternoon, I would take the car there by myself. However, since you have completed the examination now, Then do you want to go and see it with me?"

"I don't have anything to do today, and Yueshui hasn't gone home yet..." Chi Feichi quickly made a decision, "I'll go with you to take a look."

…

Ten minutes later, the red Lexus SC parked in the open-air parking lot on the roadside.

After Mouri Kogoro got out of the car, he waited for Chi Fei Chi to lock the door, and then started to lead Chi Fei Chi and Conan towards the intersection, "When you get to the intersection in front, cross the zebra crossing to the opposite side of the road. The apartment on the side of the road is the meeting place mentioned by the client. …”

Conan looked across the road, and his eyes quickly locked on the nine-story apartment on the roadside, "Is that the apartment? The client said before that he was waiting for his uncle in Room 901, which is the highest floor of the apartment!"

"Yeah..." Mouri Kogoro quickly reacted, "Hey, how do you know the client is in Room 901?"

Conan smiled guiltily, "When uncle was on the phone with the client this morning, I accidentally overheard..."

"Accidentally? I think you eavesdropped on purpose, right?" Mouri Kogoro gritted his teeth with a look of displeasure on his face, "I've told you kid before, don't always eavesdrop on my work phone calls..."

Seeing that the situation was not good, Conan sped up and ran towards the intersection. In his hurry, he almost bumped into an old woman who was about to cross the road. He quickly stopped and apologized to the old woman, "I'm sorry..."

"It's okay, little brother," the old woman said with a gentle smile to Conan, "Children have to be energetic like this, but you have to watch the road carefully when you walk!"

"I'm so sorry, this kid is so reckless..." Mouri Kogoro quickly walked to the side, stared down at Conan, and warned in a low voice, "Kid, don't run around on the road!"

Conan was worried that Mouri Kogoro would beat himself, so he ducked to Chi Feichi's side, "I know..."

"Teacher, Conan already knows that he is wrong," Chi Feichi advised calmly, "Don't be angry."

Conan: "..."

Brother Chi spoke today...

"If he runs around again, I'll help you hang him on a street lamp." Chi Feichi finished.

Conan: "..."

Still so outrageous!

"This is a good idea..." Mouri Kogoro suddenly felt less angry and took the lead to walk to the other side of the road, "Let's go, let's go there quickly, the agreed time is almost here!"

The old woman saw that Conan was following Chi Feichi closely and was obviously not afraid. She realized that Maori Kogoro and Chi Feichi would not really do anything to Conan, so she smiled and followed the three of them across the road.

Mouri Kogoro crossed the road and walked into the roadside apartment. When he saw that the apartment manager in the duty room did not stop him, he walked directly to the elevator and pressed the up button outside the elevator. While waiting for the elevator to reach the first floor, he turned around and looked Looking at the empty and quiet elevator hall, I couldn't help but say, "No one seems to be living here!"

"This apartment was only built this year. Because the rent is not cheap, there are still many vacancies." The elderly apartment manager arrived at the door of the duty room, looked at Kogoro Mori, and reminded in a calm tone, "If you want to find someone, just look at the house number at the door. It should have the room number and the name of the owner."

"Ah, okay..." Seeing the apartment manager explain so seriously, Mouri Kogoro felt guilty as if he was complaining behind his back and was discovered by the real owner, so he smiled awkwardly.

"Uncle, has the client told you his name?" Conan asked.

"He said on the phone," Mouri Kogoro breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the apartment manager returned to the duty room. He turned around and saw the elevator door opening and walked into the elevator. "It seems to be called Takarada Shiichi..."

Chi Feichi followed Conan to the elevator. Hearing Kogoro Mouri mention this name, he remembered the reports from the past few days and asked, "Is he the boss of the underground bank that forced a family of three to commit suicide?"

"What?!" Maori Kogoro's face changed quickly. He didn't care whether his raised voice alarmed the apartment manager over there. He walked out of the elevator with a stinky face, paused, and returned to the elevator. He pressed the button for the ninth floor on the elevator with an unhappy face, "Forget it, let's go up and see first!"

Chi Feichi was not surprised.

Someone's life was threatened. Even if that person was a villain or a bad guy, his teacher couldn't just stand by and watch...

Conan had guessed that Maori Kogoro would not just leave like that. Seeing Maori Kogoro's depressed face, he comforted him, "Maybe it's someone with a similar name!"

"That's right..." Maori Kogoro's face looked better, and he said, "If the other party is really the boss of that underground bank, he can't do bad things in front of me!"

The elevator quickly reached the ninth floor.

Maori Kogoro took the lead and walked out of the elevator. He recalled the floor map on the elevator and walked towards the direction of Room 901. "It should be here..."

As soon as the three of them walked to the door of Room 901, a man's shouting came from the room.

"Go to hell!"

Mauri Kogoro was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly opened the door and entered the room. He walked quickly through the entrance, pushed open the door in front, and arrived at the room where the shouting came from.

Read

This is a room with a layout like a private studio. There are desks, chairs, and lockers at the entrance. The bookshelves against the wall are full of books. There is also a luxurious reception sofa area inside.

A young man in a suit, wearing glasses, and with a gentle temperament stood in front of the sofa. Under the gaze of Maori Kogoro, Chi Feichi, and Conan, he held a knife and stabbed another man who was sitting on the sofa with his back to the door.

After the "puff" sound of the sharp blade piercing into the flesh, the young man took two steps back in sweat, muttering "success" and fell to the ground.

Maori Kogoro hurried to the sofa, turned over from behind the sofa, and leaned over to check the condition of the man sitting on the sofa.

The young man looked at Maori Kogoro in panic, "Who are you?"

Conan followed Chi Feichi around from the other side of the sofa and looked at Maori Kogoro without blinking to check the situation.

Maori Kogoro looked at the condition of the man on the sofa, stood up with some surprise, turned around and asked the young man sitting on the ground, "Is he Mr. Takarada Echi?"

"Yes..." The young man gritted his teeth, "He brought it upon himself!"

"Uncle, how is he?" Conan asked.

"It's too late to save him," Maori Kogoro looked at Takarada Echi on the sofa, his expression depressed and confused, "It's been almost two hours since he was strangled to death."

"Strangled to death?"

Conan looked at the knife inserted in Takarada Echi's stomach in surprise, and then looked at the young man with the same surprised face.

After Maori Kogoro called the police, the police quickly arrived at the scene.

According to police investigation, the deceased was the underground money house owner, Takata Kaji, and the young man was Takata Kaji's secretary, named Fukami Jixing.

Takata Kaji had a hobby of writing and had published many novels at his own expense. This room was the office that Takata Kaji rented and used to write novels. Most of the books on the bookshelf in the room were novels published by Takata Kaji himself.

On the coffee table in front of Takata Kaji's body, the police found a letter of warning of murder.

On the white paper, a sentence was printed in large black font: [To the inhuman Takata Kaji: I will kill you! 】

Secretary Fukami Jixing explained that this murder notice was sent to the family of Takarada Jiichi this morning. After reading the letter, Takarada Jiichi laughed at the writer for overestimating his own abilities and coming to him if he had the guts. Fukami Jixing guessed that this letter was probably sent by a victim who was exploited by Takarada Jiichi, and he wanted to kill Takarada Jiichi first because he didn't want the victim to become a murderer. After arriving at the office this afternoon, he stabbed Takarada Jiichi, who was sitting on the sofa and seemed to be taking a nap, with a knife. However, he didn't expect that he was still a step too late, and Takarada Jiichi had already been killed.
