The police in Hyogo Prefecture were busy. Over in Osaka City, Police Supervisor Heizo received a call from the Otaki Police Department and dispatched Criminal Affairs Minister Toyama Ginjiro to investigate the case of Situ Xiu's disappearance. A rescue operation involved the entire Osaka police force.
Who is Situ Xiu?
Friends of Hattori Heiji, Toyama and Ye, their fathers are half the sky in the Osaka Police Department.
Half an hour later.
The police used surveillance equipment and finally tracked the vehicle with license plate number 9438. The vehicle left Hyogo Prefecture and headed for a mountain road. The police immediately dispatched officers to search.
1 hour later.
The car was found, but there was no one inside, indicating that the criminal got out of the car and left, or left in a different vehicle.
No matter which one it is, there is no surveillance equipment on this road, and there are too many passing vehicles for the police to determine the traces of the gangsters.
Simply put, the gangster's information is lost.
"What! Changed the vehicle."
Hattori Heiji and Conan both looked solemn. Although they had already guessed this outcome, they still held on to a glimmer of hope.
Hui Yuan Ai had worry on her face, hoping that nothing would happen to Situ Xiu.
At this time, Sonoko, Kazuha, Xiaolan, Koizumi Anko, and Miyano Akemi rushed over from the Takarazuka venue. They received a call from Uncle Mori and came to Koshien without a moment's rest.
"What is going on? Why is Xiao Xiu missing?" Koizumi Hongzi looked worried.
"After the game..." Uncle Maori recounted what happened.
"Kidnapper?"
Koizumi Anko was slightly startled, looked at Hattori Heiji, and asked calmly: "Hattori, are you sure they are kidnappers, and their purpose is to ask for money?"
"I'm not sure, but I'm 70% sure it was kidnapping for money. The remaining 30%, I don't know if they are enemies of your family." Hattori Heiji said with a frown.
People from a wealthy family were kidnapped, first for money and second for enemies.
After hearing this, Koizumi Hongzi immediately said: "We are not enemies. Our family is very low-key and basically does not cause unnecessary trouble."
"Why do you think so?" Conan asked curiously.
Koizumi Hongzi frowned, thought for a moment, and said: "It's very complicated here. Let me tell you simply, our family is doing business, and others will not know that it is us."
"Like Tiga's film company?" Conan pinched his chin and said.
"Yes, others are responsible. We don't care. We only collect money." Koizumi Hongzi said.
Everyone looked confused.
There is also this kind of thing, you can get money without showing up.
Uncle Maoli was puzzled: "You don't come forward, but someone in charge will know."
"No, the person in charge doesn't know either, because they are dealing with the company, not us."
Seeing that they were all acquaintances, Koizumi Anko felt comfortable telling them about her family affairs, but she didn't say too much, just simple words.
"What about the press conference?" Yuanzi asked.
"Others in the company act as agents." Koizumi Hongzi said.
"So strict." Sonoko said in surprise, suddenly thinking of her high-profile uncle Suzuki Shiro. In contrast, Koizumi Anko's family was really low-key.
Miyano Akemi and Haihara Ai were both silent, not knowing what they were thinking.
Xiao Lan thought for a moment and said, "If it's about kidnapping, Xiao Xiu didn't do anything high-profile, so why would he kidnap him?"
"Yeah, I'm very confused." Heye agreed,
"Indeed, I have been thinking about this question, why did you suddenly target Xiaoxiu?" Mouri Kogoro said while holding his chin.
yes.
Why did Xiao Xiu be captured?
Hattori Heiji and Conan looked at each other. They both didn't understand why they were arresting Xiaoxiu if they were not enemies.
He didn't show off his wealth everywhere, so who were those two people?
"Ding ding ding~" the phone rang, Koizumi Hongzi picked up the phone and pressed it.
"grandmother."
"Is Xiao Xiu there with you?"
Grandma's words shocked Koizumi Hongzi slightly, "Grandma, do you know that Xiao Xiu is missing?"
"How did you bring your brother? Didn't I tell you that you must watch carefully when he goes out with you." Grandma was slightly angry.
"I..." Koizumi Hongzi's eyes turned red, feeling a little aggrieved.
The rest of the people noticed something was wrong and fell silent for a while.
Grandma: "I hope it's okay. Someone called me just now and asked me for 10 billion U.S. dollars. I have already asked people to prepare."
"Grandma, can't you use that to find it?" Koizumi Hongzi said.
"It's useless, I tried, otherwise I wouldn't lose my temper with you, alas." Grandma sighed.
"No way!" Koizumi Hongzi didn't believe it. The magic was perfect at finding people, and it could basically find the location of the person you were looking for.
"Okay, I have contacted the police here and asked them to investigate secretly in plain clothes. Please don't call the police on your side." Grandma said.
"Ah...but the police have been called." Koizumi Hongzi said weakly.
"Tell them to remove it. We don't need them. Don't harm Xiao Xiu then. I'll give you any money." Grandma said.
"Beep beep..." The phone hung up.
Koizumi Hongzi knew that Situ Xiu was the most important to her grandmother, which was normal. Everything in the family was bigger than her.
Is it like the customs of the old society, which is very unpleasant, but you must know that this is how the Red Magic family has survived for thousands of years.
The most glorious ones will also decline. As time goes by, in the past few hundred years, the Red Magic family has finally been defeated. Compared with before, it no longer has the glory of the past.
To the Red Magic family, money is just a number and has no effect.
Just like a tree, it will eventually grow old one day, not to mention the earth that has dried up.
Koizumi Anko collected her thoughts, looked at Hattori Heiji, and said: "Hattori, tell the police in Osaka not to investigate, so as not to alert the gangsters and hurt Xiao Xiu."
"What does that mother-in-law mean?" Hattori Heiji knew that Situ Xiu had a mother-in-law at home.
"Yes." Koizumi Hongzi nodded.
"I understand." Hattori Heiji took out his phone and called his father Hattori Heizo.
Uncle Maoli asked: "How did she know that something happened to Xiao Xiu?"
"The kidnappers called and asked for 10 billion U.S. dollars." Koizumi Hongzi said.
"10 billion US dollars?"
Everyone's eyes widened.
Conan frowned slightly, lost in thought.
.........
1 hour ago.
In an old house, two men took Situ Xiu out of the box, placed him on a chair, and pulled off the bandage on his mouth.
"Brother, there is no need to put it on the armchair." The younger brother said.
"You know what the heck, this is a rich young master, of course you have to serve him well." The eldest brother said.
"Wake up, we're home."
Situ Xiu pretended to be dazed and yawned, "Where is this place? Why is it so dark?"
"You have been kidnapped. Tell me your home phone number." The eldest brother took out a knife.
Situ Xiu said casually: "7799..."
"Very cooperative." The younger brother was a little surprised.
"How much do you want?"
Situ Xiu looked at the two of them, wearing a hat and a mask to cover his face. Just like in the bathroom just now, his face shape could not be seen.
"200 million." The younger brother said casually.
The eldest brother stared, "Why are you talking so much?"
"I..." The younger brother felt aggrieved and glared at Situ Xiu, blaming this stupid kid.
"That's it? It's only 200 million, that's all I'm worth." Situ Xiu said with a smile.
The eldest brother was just about to make a call. When he heard this, he narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "This young master is a bit unusual. It seems that children from rich families are different. They can still remain calm and composed at this time. Then young master, do you think you are worth it?" How many."
"let me see...."
Situ Xiu suddenly remembered the last time he was wanted by the communications company and said with a smile: "Someone valued me at 10 billion US dollars some time ago. I think I should be worth at least this price."
"One... one hundred... ten billion... US dollars." The younger brother stammered.
The eldest brother touched his chest, feeling panicked, and swallowed, "Your family is so rich."
"Fortunately, I don't have to worry about food and drink, and I am as rich as my country." Situ Xiu said with a smile.
Next to Situ Xiu, the invisible Guisi, Gengar, and Night Demon all twitched the corners of their mouths.
The eldest brother and the younger brother looked at each other with smiles on their faces.
"Okay, the young master is very smart. We can't let the young master drop the price. We want 10 billion US dollars."
The eldest brother was so happy that 200 million became 10 billion. The more he looked at Situ Xiu, the more pleasing he became. Yes, yes.
Taking out the phone, the elder brother dialed. Soon the call was connected and a hoarse voice came, "Hello, who's there?"
"Listen, your young master is in our hands and we need 10 billion US dollars. If you dare to hang up, you can try."
The eldest brother was afraid that the other party would hang up the phone, so he threatened.
"What is my young master's name?" said the other side.
"Situ Xiu."
The eldest brother sneered and handed the phone to Situ Xiu, "Say a few words for them to listen to."
"Grandma, this is Xiao Xiu." Situ Xiu gave her grandma's phone number.
"Xiao Xiu?" Grandma panicked, "Why were you kidnapped, Hongzi? Hongzi isn't with you?"
Before Situ Xiu could speak, the elder brother took back the phone and said, "Listen up, I'll give you two days for 10 billion U.S. dollars, I think you won't be in trouble."
"Three days, give me three days. Don't hurt him during this period. I want to ensure his safety. I will definitely give you the money." Grandma said.
"Come on, call me in three days, and remember not to call the police." The eldest brother said.
"Wait a minute, don't starve him, don't freeze him. Also, I'm in Tokyo. I can't control the Osaka side. If others call the police, I can't do anything."
Grandma knew that Situ Xiu went to Osaka to watch the Koshien game.
"That's right. The transaction location is in Tokyo. You must not call the police there, otherwise..." the eldest brother said.
"I know." Grandma said.
Situ Xiu was a little touched. Grandma was so kind to him.
At the end of the phone call, the elder brother smiled, and the younger brother asked: "Is it really 10 billion U.S. dollars? Brother."
"Of course." The eldest brother said proudly.
"Get rich, get rich." The younger brother said excitedly.
Situ Xiu was speechless. He didn't even get the money to leave safely and make a fortune.
Today's kidnappers are so unprofessional.
What a disgrace to the kidnapping community.
Situ Xiu's stomach suddenly growled and he said, "I'm so hungry. Do you have anything to eat?"
"Yes, don't worry, young master, we have enough to take care of here."
The eldest brother slapped the excited younger brother, and then said: "Go and buy food for the young master, hamburgers, French fries, fried chicken, KFC, buy them all."
"yes, Sir."
After the younger brother finished speaking, he looked at Situ Xiu and said, "Master, I will be back in 20 minutes. Don't worry, I won't starve you."
"..." Situ Xiu.
With this treatment, am I a hostage after all, or am I just here to enjoy it?
