Chapter 149 The Detective’s Word Game (Part 2)
When Conan saw this string of numbers, the first thing he thought of was the order of English letters, but after demonstrating it in his head, he quickly ruled out this possibility.
“Where else can numbers be used?”
Conan originally wanted to take a piece of scratch paper from the drawer and scribble on it to look for clues, but his eyes suddenly stopped when he saw the landline phone on the table.
Is it the Japanese nine-key input method?
Conan took out his mobile phone from his pocket, opened the email interface, and switched to the nine-key input method: "5481723...Thallium House Umbrella? No, this is not an address, not even a sentence...eh? 5481にちよう, 2-chome ?”
He suddenly understood that this was not a sentence, nor was it a vague address composed entirely of pseudonyms. 5481723 is actually a series of house numbers, and he should be familiar with this place.
に (5) ち (4) よ (8) う (1) め (7) 23 - Chapter 23 of the Second Chome!
Not deliberately indicating the town means that this address defaults to Yoneka Town. Yoneka Town 2-chome 23 is right next to Dr. Agasa's house.
Conan has lived nearby for more than ten years, and he remembers that the house where the address is located seems to be called Trojan Manor. Moreover, the owner of the wooden horse village is the father of Edogawa Conan's elementary school classmate.
Conan directly used Kudo Shinichi's mobile phone to call Officer Megure: "Hello, Officer Megure? This is Kudo Shinichi."
…
Mika-cho 2-chome 23, Mokuba-so
The cramped rental house was in a mess. Rotten fruits were randomly discarded in the corner of the room, exuding the sour smell of yeast fermentation. Fruit flies were flying around the garbage. Seven or eight finished take-out boxes were piled on the table. The soup is still dripping down from time to time.
Nobuhiro sat on the damp and dirty bed, leaning against the wall whose original color was no longer visible, and sighed helplessly.
To be honest, it’s not like he has never seen an environment worse than here. He even lived penniless for a week in a street full of garbage, needles, and condoms in North Brooklyn, New York.
But many of the homeless people in that place were forced to become homeless, unlike Kawamura Akio.
Akao Kawamura clearly has a job, although the work pay is very low; he clearly has a house to live in, although the house is small and cramped; he clearly has decent clothes, although he only sees people in his suit. But he still led himself into such a useless person.
When Nobushige first saw Akao Kawamura, his impression of him was not so bad.
At around eight o'clock this morning, as soon as he entered the door of Lu Feng's music classroom, he knew that someone had come in before.
After all, Nobuhiro is a special professional lurking in criminal groups. Even though Lufeng Music Classroom has nothing to do with the police or the organization, out of caution, he spends more stringent security than many banks.
Under such circumstances, it's hard not to be surprised that Kawamura Akio was able to sneak in quietly without alerting any alarm systems...
It was precisely because of this surprise that Nobushige didn't bring down Akao Kawamura immediately. He acted like "I'm so scared, don't do anything" and "I have money, I'll give it to you". On the surface, he complied with all the kidnapper's actions, but in reality, he kept talking quietly.
As for the tips left for Conan...
On the one hand, Nobuhiro does not want to expose himself too much to the police. Appropriate display of weakness can avoid attracting the attention of the organization and the FBI. On the other hand, Conan's kid has a strong sense of justice whenever something happens, and he wants to dig deep to find the truth. Who knows what he can find out if he is not deliberately guided.
But of course, the main reason was that Nobushige wanted to tease Conan.
"boom--"
The iron door of the suite was forcefully closed, and then heavy and messy footsteps were heard from the entrance.
Nobuhiro raised his head and glanced at the tall and thin man who walked in aggressively, but said nothing.
"Asano Nobushige!!" Kawamura Akao suddenly became angry, grabbed Nobushige's collar and pressed him against the dirty wall, "You bastard! Don't let you look at me with that trashy look!"
Xinfan's eyes were bright but calm, like a deep pool of water, calm and calm.
He turned slightly to the side, and at the same time stretched out his right hand to hold Kawamura Akao's arm, and gave him a gentle push: "My eyes never stop at garbage. But even if you are not garbage, you should be called the scum of mankind." Ze.”
Kawamura Akio tried his best to break free, but found that his arm seemed to be resisting a jack. No matter how hard he tried, he could not see the slightest change in Asano Nobushige's face.
hateful! He is obviously the kidnapper, why does this man dare to be so arrogant? ! !
In fact, Nobushige is not a strong type, and his fighting skills are not as good as those of Rei Fukiya and Date Ko. It's just that Akao Kawamura is so thin that he doesn't even have a few ounces of meat on his arms, so he can easily restrain him.
For someone of this type to dare to kidnap him, I really don't know whether to call him courageous or stupid.
"Kawamura." Nobuban said indifferently, "I think it would be better for you to surrender to the police now."
Otherwise, if we delay for a while, Conan should be able to follow the clues to find him. By then, Akao Kawamura will not be able to be released unless he is imprisoned until the end of the plot.
Kawamura Akao didn't appreciate it at all. When he saw that he didn't seem to be a hostage opponent, he immediately retreated, and took out a sharp kitchen knife from his backpack, loudly emboldening himself: "Are you kidding? Asano Nobushige, please be nice. Look at your current situation, if I don’t get the 50 million before the sun sets, you will be dead!!”
"Oh, really?" Nobumangi chuckled with unknown meaning, "Just because you're a poor guy like you who has 'less hair than your savings and more protruding lumbar discs than your working ability'?"
"What did you say?!" Kawamura Akio's eyes were red with anger. He raised a kitchen knife and chopped down at Nobushige, with the aura of dying together.
However, this kind of movement didn't even make Nobuhiro blink.
He maintained his original movements and watched quietly as Akao Kawamura jumped in front of him, and then——
The action takes off in an instant!
Nobushige put his weight on his left leg while he was half-sitting, and kicked Kawamura Akao's kitchen knife away with a backspin kick with his right foot. Then he relied on inertia to turn over, grabbed his hands, and locked them tightly.
In the blink of an eye, Kawamura Akio had his hands behind his back and was firmly fixed to the bed by Nobuhiro, face down.
Akao Kawamura: "???"
Nobushige quickly put his hand away, picked up the kitchen knife from the ground and handed it to Kawamura Akio: "I'm sorry, my attack may not be serious. Here it is, please continue."
Akao Kawamura: "..."
No, this is a bit too much, right?
Do kidnappers have no face? ?
Just when Akao Kawamura was still doubting life in a "clamped" posture, the doorbell of the small apartment he rented suddenly rang.
"Open the door, we are the police!"
Nobuban's brows moved slightly, and he straightened Kawamura Akao's body without any explanation, and put the kitchen knife into his hand.
What a joke, he is a victim, right? He cannot be without a bit of professionalism as a victim!
