"Rum?"
In the cafeteria of Mihua International Hospital, Bai Hejing was confused for a moment after hearing Belmod mention the name. After thinking about it for a while, she remembered what Belmod was referring to.
"Are you talking about Rum's recent actions in Europe?"
I remember that Bai Heqing did mention to her two days ago that Rum wanted to make some big moves in Europe recently.
It is said that through some channel, he discovered a very special ore in a small European country. I heard that this ore can release quite amazing energy when stimulated in a certain way. To put it simply, it can be used to make bomb.
According to Rum, even a small piece of this special ore as big as a thumb can easily wipe out a village after being detonated. It is a very efficient weapon.
The country where this ore was excavated is called the "Kingdom of Andrew". It is a very small country in southern Europe that still retains its feudal monarchy.
According to Rum's idea, he wanted to directly deal with the current king of this country, and then support his own people in the organization to take over, and directly control this small country from the top.
Regarding this, the main cadres in Europe have different opinions. After all, although the Andrew Kingdom is small, it is also an officially recognized country in the world. If you want to conduct a coup in such a country, there are many internal and external influences that need to be taken into consideration.
In particular, the current king of the Kingdom of Andrew is called the "Holy King" by his people. It is not easy to overthrow such a well-known king in the country.
As far as Bai Hejing knows, Bai Heqing has not expressed any support for Rum's action. He has neither support nor opposition. It seems that he does not want to intervene.
The main leading cadres of the organization in various European countries are expected to hold an emergency meeting in the next two days to make final discussions on this matter.
This is also a practice left over from Reger's era.
Today, the main leading cadres of the organization in various European countries are basically promoted by Bai Heqing.
Shirakawa Kiyoshi has given them a lot of power in their respective regions over the last ten years of the Regal era.
Except for the promotion, appointment, dismissal and punishment of cadres, almost all other matters can be discussed by them together. After arriving at a common plan, they will submit it to Bai Heqing, who will make the final decision.
And this time, these cadres probably want to adopt this method to deal with it.
In the final analysis, this is because rum’s foundation in Europe and the United States is unstable.
In the past ten years, Shirakawa has completely refined and controlled the organizational management in Europe and the United States. This inertia of the Reger era cannot be reversed by Rum in the short term.
"Yes." Belmod's voice said leisurely in the earphones: "Last night, he made it clear that he would support Rum's action this time."
[Make a clear statement? 】
Bai Hejing was a little surprised. He had always had an indifferent attitude before. This was obviously wrong.
"What did he think?"
"What do you think, Jing?"
Although she was speechless about her mother's Riddler character, Bai Heqing was too lazy to complain anymore. She just thought about what Belmod had said before and realized the meaning of Bai Heqing's move.
"He was deliberately exposing himself."
But it's another fisherman's trick.
It’s just that last time he fished with rum, this time he fished with himself.
In just a moment, Bai Hejing figured out the joints.
Last time Bai Heqing at least prepared a bait. This time he probably wouldn't even prepare a bait. He would probably just catch it hard with a straight hook.
It doesn't matter whether he can catch the fish in the end. For Bai Heqing, as long as he can see the shadow of the fish clearly this time, it will be a success of the plan.
Only by knowing what kind of fish is hiding under the deep pool can he make appropriate arrangements in the future.
"So, you really don't know where he is now?" Bai Hejing asked again.
If her speculation was correct, after Bai Heqing made it clear that he would support Rum, his fishing plan had already been arranged, and his sudden disappearance only increased the authenticity of the fishing plan.
Next, he only needs to wait for the fish under the deep pool to surface on their own.
"How could I lie to you guys about this kind of thing..." After Bai Hejing asked again and again, Belmode sighed helplessly.
Bai Hejing has not been close to her since she was a child.
This child is so similar to her father's previous personality...
"Did he leave any words?" Bai Hejing asked instead without pursuing the topic any further.
"During his absence, the affairs of the Tokyo headquarters will be co-chaired by A Jing and Gin." Bellmode said.
"Understood." Bai Hejing just nodded when he heard this, his tone was calm, and the expression on his face did not change at all.
She was not surprised by this, after all, she had guessed the answer before she spoke, and asking Belmode was just to confirm it again.
"goodbye."
After getting all the information he wanted to know, Bai Hejing felt that there was no need to talk anymore and decided to cut off the communication.
It seemed that she thought this word was a bit too cold, so she added another sentence at the end.
"I'm dead."
"good."
After hearing Belmod's reply, Bai Hejing cut off the communication, picked up the empty dinner plate, and left the corner.
[In other words, my father doesn’t actually care whether Rum’s operation is successful? 】
Thinking about this in his heart, Bai Hejing finally made a decision after a short period of thinking.
"..."
On the other side, after Karasuma Ying and Conan returned to the studio, Officer Sato, who was still at the death scene, came up to them.
"Xiaoying, are you back?"
"What's wrong? Officer Sato?"
"Police officers from the forensics department have just discovered two important pieces of evidence. One is the costume worn by the victim. The chest area of the costume was indeed severely damaged.
Although there is no abnormality visible on the surface of the costume, its internal structure has been completely destroyed and will break immediately if it receives even the slightest impact. "
"Is it man-made?" Karasumaying asked.
"Yes, and inside the costume worn by the victim, the forensics department also extracted the complete fingerprints of his stuntman Katsu Komiya in addition to the victim himself." Miwako Sato replied.
"Then the second point is the air cushion that was smashed through by the victim. According to the report of the forensic department, there are also traces of man-made damage on that air cushion. The smooth breach was indeed caused by some kind of sharp instrument.
Not only that, there are still tape marks left on the breach that the vandals used to cover up with tape. Such an air cushion also only needs a little pressure, and the tape will fall off immediately, and it cannot withstand the impact of falling objects. "
As soon as Sato Miwako finished speaking, she saw Takagi Wataru walking over with someone.
This man is physically strong, but has a face that looks like a bully. He is none other than Katsuragi Touma's stuntman Katsu Komiya.
"Officer... um, what do you want from me?" Komiya Katsu looked at Miwako Sato with a serious face, fear and panic written on her face.
"Don't be nervous, Mr. Komiya, I just want to ask you something."
"Okay, okay..."
Sato Miwako showed a smile, and after Komiya Katsu reluctantly relaxed a little, she asked directly.
"After our investigation, we found that the costume worn by the victim had serious signs of man-made damage, and we also extracted your fingerprints from the damaged parts of the costume. Mr. Komiya, can you explain this? ?”
"Uh, um, um, I..."
When Sato Miwako pointed this out directly, Komiya Katsu seemed a little flustered. He subconsciously raised his hand, looked around, and finally lowered his head, looking dejected.
Upon seeing this, Karasumaying hesitated and said, "Mr. Xiaomiya, although we can't conclude that you are the murderer yet.
But because you are highly suspicious, if you have nothing to explain for yourself, the police can arrest you until the real murderer is found, or the identity of your murderer is completely confirmed.
So, if you are willing, we also hope that you can speak clearly here and clear your suspicions. "
After returning from the warehouse, Karasumaying knew very well that Xiao Gongsheng could not be the murderer. He did not have the necessary conditions to become a murderer. At most, he was an accomplice who assisted the murderer, and this was what she needed to distinguish at the moment.
"I know..." Under Karasumaying's persuasion, Komiya Katsu sighed again and finally said, "Well, I did destroy Katsuragi's costume..."
"When did it happen? Producer Shibata also said that he had seen it..." Conan asked.
"Did the producer also see it? It was that time two days ago. After I got off work in Katsuragi, I quietly ran to the warehouse alone and tried to destroy his costume... But, but!"
Speaking of this, Xiao Gongsheng suddenly became excited and said loudly:
“But I went back after reconsidering it! I felt that this kind of thing still couldn’t be done, so I repaired the costume again!
Moreover, I was afraid that Katsuragi would wear this costume in the future, so I deliberately put it in the pile of costumes that needed maintenance!
police officer! Please believe me! Although I tampered with the costumes! But I immediately changed it back! I really don't know why Katsuragi is wearing this costume today! "
"I understand, Mr. Komiya, please calm down first."
Turning around and giving instructions to a forensic police officer behind her, Sato Miwako looked at Komiya Katsu again and asked:
"Then, Mr. Komiya, what was the motive that prompted you to do this in the first place? Did you also want to murder Mr. Katsuragi?"
"No, it's not..." Xiaomiya Sheng heard this, and his face returned to the expression of being a doormat, "Although Katsuragi is a junior in the troupe, he is not only tall and handsome, but also very handsome in his movements. She has the style of a big star.
If he can seize this opportunity at O'Neal, he will definitely be able to soar into the sky.
Compared with him, although I am a senior, I am not as good as him in height or appearance. I always play some monster roles. I really envy him...
So, I actually just wanted to cause a little accident and let him get hurt..."
"So you lied about being injured and tampered with the costume just to make Mr. Katsuragi get injured during filming?" Karasumaying asked.
"Yes, that's what I thought originally, but after I went back, I thought that Katsuragi would personally perform that difficult jump. I was really afraid that something would happen to him, so I went back and changed it again..."
"So, Mr. Komiya, did you do anything about the air mattress that was smashed through by the victim?" Sato Miwako asked.
"It's not me! I really don't know what's going on with that air mattress!" Komiya Katsu replied excitedly: "I just want Katsuragi to get hurt! After falling from such a high place, if there is something wrong with the air mattress, he will definitely I will die! How could I do something like that!"
"I understand. Do you have any clues that you can give us about this air mattress? For example, who moved it? Has anyone deliberately approached it or done anything to it?"
"When it was moved out, several staff members moved it together. As for getting close to it, it seems...ah! Yes!"
Suddenly remembering something, Komiya Katsu said quickly: "It was when I went back to the warehouse to repair the costumes two days ago, Kawada happened to come out of the warehouse at that time!"
Yumi Kawada, a fan of Toma Katsuragi.
"Because Kawada is not in charge of things in the warehouse, I curiously asked her what she was doing in the warehouse, but she didn't say anything at that time, and left with a sullen face, and...and... Producer Shibata!”
"What's wrong with him?" Karasuma Ying asked.
"Producer Shibata came very early this morning. When I came to the studio with two other staff members, I saw him touching and touching the air mattress alone. He also looked very happy when he saw us. You look nervous!”
"I understand. We will investigate this later. Mr. Komiya, you can go back first."
Sato Miwako nodded and asked a police officer to take Komiya Katsu back.
"Officer Sato."
At the same time, the forensic police officer who had been ordered by Miwako Sato also came back from outside.
"We have just inspected it, and there are indeed a lot of traces of liquid glue on the chest area of the costume, but on top of these traces of glue, there are more and more serious traces of man-made damage..."
"In other words, after Komiya Katsu destroyed the costume for the first time and glued the seams, the costume suffered a second, more serious damage?"
"Yes."
"Sister Xiaoying, is it possible for an actor to confuse costumes that are in normal use with costumes that need to be repaired?" Conan suddenly asked as he was making final confirmations.
"It's impossible on this set."
Knowing what he was asking, Karasumaying replied: "I just saw it in the warehouse. The two are stored separately and marked in detail. There is no chance that they will be confused by the actors."
In other words, there is no situation where Katsuragi Toma accidentally picked out that costume from the pile of costumes that needed repair and wore it again.
But Katsuragi Toma was indeed killed in that costume today, so there is only one possibility.
Two days ago, after Komiya Katsu threw the costume into the pile of costumes that needed to be repaired, a person came to the warehouse, damaged the costume a second time, and at the same time hung it back up at Katsuragi Tou. On a real clothes rack.
When will this be? Who did it?
