A mechanical, emotionless electronic synth sound echoed in the room.
Mark Hartley suddenly became even more panicked.
Because the source of the explosion that detonated the subway and caused a sensation in the media might really have come from his side.
only……
The bomb was sold by one of his subordinates, and that person confessed the truth to him just one hour before the Metropolitan Police Department held a press conference. He was timid and afraid of being implicated, and sealed it in the backyard with cement. in the well.
Why did that kid still cry and shout that he would never dare to do it again?
Don’t dare anymore?
late!
Haven't you been watching the news recently? There have been so many terrorist attacks caused by explosions, and if you still keep a low profile, do you really think they are some big organization?
It’s simply a matter of life and death!
As it turned out, his concerns were not groundless. Before the police came to the door, two more terrifying men in black... arrived.
Especially that scary guy sitting on the chair, his whole body wrapped in darkness... Is he really a human?
Snapped!
"Are you mute?"
Vodka walked over, slapped Mark Hartley to the ground, took out his gun and put it against his head.
"say!"
"Yes Yes……"
Mark Hartley's lips trembled, "It's my subordinate Mita..."
"Hey," Vodka said, sheathed the gun and took half a step back to give the other party room to get up, "Bring this person over."
"I can't bring him here." Mark Hartley was about to cry and explained helplessly: "The person...the person has been buried by me."
"What?!" Vodka was stunned. He immediately felt like he was being tricked and was about to continue his attack.
"etc."
Ye Gengyi stopped the subsequent violent menstruation, "What's the reason?"
"Mita...he contacted the buyer privately and sold a whole pack of 20 bombs."
Mark Hartley secretly glanced at the vodka and hurriedly explained, "Really! It really has nothing to do with me. Last time, the boss brought some goods from here. It was a warning, no, a reminder...it was a reminder to me to install it." After a while, I have been hiding here honestly for the past few days, but the blind Mita actually contacted the buyer secretly..."
"Have you never met the buyer?" Ye Gengyi picked up the key points.
"No, absolutely not." Mark Hartley shook his head wildly.
"Then how did the buyer contact your subordinate?"
Ye Gengyi asked, "Or are you saying that anyone can sell the weapons here?"
...How could Gin leave such a loosely managed weapons retailer? Moreover, I bought bombs from the other party. Are you really not afraid of being exposed?
"No! Please believe me, only that boy Mita is an unruly bastard!"
Mark Hartley gritted his teeth when talking about this, "I saved that guy's life outside a casino. Because his skills were pretty good, I stayed..."
Is it because I was taught a lesson by other arms dealers in the past and I feel insecure?
Ye Geng thought about it and listened to Mark Hartley continue without interrupting:
"According to that guy, he used to engage in fraud with a partner who worked in insurance. Then the two of them suddenly parted ways for some unknown reason... Yes! That's right! The buyer must be that person. That guy Mita is fine. Friend, the one who can contact him to buy bombs must be his former partners!"
Insurance?
Could it be that the reason for blowing up the Toto Line was this... The risk seems a bit high. If it was to defraud many people of huge insurances, it should be easy to find out.
However, since the other party immediately admitted his mistake to Mark Hartley after seeing the press conference, it is enough to show that Mita is not very courageous.
That is to say...
He dared to sell the bomb without Mark Hartley's prohibition.
It shows that either the buyer is a trustworthy partner, or the other party has the leverage that forces him to submit.
It's a pity that from the timid weapons seller in front of him, it seems that he can't find out the identity of the other party.
…
After asking for information, he left Vodka with him and asked him to inform Gin of the situation and handle it on his own.
Ye Gengyi went to the car rental agency again.
After a busy day, when we returned to 2-chome, it was already evening.
Conan and the three children of the Junior Detective Team have returned.
Use the truth about going out to collect clues to defeat Dr. A Li and Little Radar.
Had dinner.
The phone rang in the living room.
According to the rule that people who cook don’t wash dishes, Ye Gengyi, who happened to be in a short idle state, walked over and picked it up:
"Hello?"
"Brother Gengyi, it's me!" A voice that seemed to have never encountered any trouble came from the receiver.
"Well, Yuanzi, what's the matter?" Ye Gengyi asked.
Listening to the calm response, Suzuki Sonoko inexplicably felt that the temperature around her had dropped a lot.
Stretching his hand towards the air outlet of the air conditioner, a daughter felt the warmth of the room again and said half-jokingly:
"Brother Gengyi, I heard Xiaolan say that you are planning to go skiing in Beizhisawa Village tomorrow. Really... we are not friends anymore. Why didn't you inform me about this kind of thing!"
"Sonoko, you are really..."
Mao Lilan's voice came from the other end of the phone.
Ye Gengyi did not ask, but said simply:
"Do you have time to go? Then prepare your clothes, I will go out at 9 o'clock tomorrow."
He has already set a goal. This time he goes out to investigate the disease rather than play. If he takes all these "disaster sources" with him, not only will there be no harm, but it may also have miraculous effects.
"Hmm... 9, 9 o'clock?"
Suzuki Sonoko originally planned to make a few jokes. It would be best if she could hear Sarada's slightly flustered tone due to embarrassment. It would be best if she could explain it to herself... As a result, she didn't seem to mean it at all.
"Well, if you can't get up, remember to set the alarm and sleep on the way."
"No way... I'll see you tomorrow, brother Gengyi."
"See you."
Clothing store in shopping street.
Mao Lilan watched the expression on her best friend's face change from joy to calmness, and was very confused: "Eh? Yuanzi, what's wrong with you?"
Although she didn't lean over the phone to eavesdrop on the conversation between the two, Sonoko's words "See you tomorrow, brother Genichi" obviously meant that she had agreed.
It's just that there is no happiness on Yuanzi's face at all. She was just looking forward to buying a particularly beautiful dress, catching handsome guys on the ski resort, taking photos and sending them to a fighting maniac to make him jealous...
"No," Suzuki Sonoko came back to her senses and explained, "I was just chilled by Genichi-san. I had a strange feeling, as if he was speaking venomously only when he was serious when kissing us. I feel very alienated..."
"Ah?" Mao Lilan had a question mark on her face, obviously not knowing what her best friend was talking about.
"Oh~ I was just talking nonsense!"
Suzuki Sonoko suddenly laughed again, turned around and picked up a red cotton coat from the shelf: "How about it? Xiaolan... this dress is definitely eye-catching when worn in the snow, right?"
"You..."
Mao Lilan was speechless for a moment, and she no longer dwelled on the topic just now, and complained: "If Kyogoku is really jealous and breaks up with you, don't cry to me then."
"Eh? Really..."
Suzuki Sonoko stared at him with vacant eyes and teased: "How about you, Xiaolan? If your husband is jealous, he might just run to Kitazawa Village."
"Sonoko! Who is my husband? I'm ignoring you!"
Mao Lilan blushed, turned around and secretly took out her mobile phone and started to question her.
Yui, do you want to contact Shinichi...
…
On the other side, Ye Gengyi hung up the phone and returned to the coffee table to play with his laptop.
On the screen is a statistical table, which contains all searchable insurance companies located in the Tokyo area.
Unfortunately, when he contacted Shiratori Rensaburo, a son of a wealthy family, to conduct relevant verification, he found that... at least on the surface, there was no information about a company that had recently taken out a large amount of personal safety insurance.
Sure enough, should we start the investigation from Kitazozawa Reservoir?
Ye Gengyi thought.
I heard footsteps coming from the side.
After a while, Haihara Ai came over with a pot of coffee and two cups, "...seems to be very serious."
In her memory, this was the first time she saw this person sitting in front of the computer for such a long time without doing any scientific research.
"Well..." Ye Gengyi reached out and poured himself a cup of coffee, and explained while drinking: "After all, he is an expert of the Technical Association, and he happened to have no performance in the airship incident and the Cupido Central Hospital incident. I took this opportunity. We should also make some achievements..."
Is it because organizations were involved in both cases?
This doubt flashed through Haihara Ai's mind. He wanted to ask, but considering that Dr. A Li was right behind him, he had no choice but to suppress his curiosity and changed his question:
"Are you sure you can find the gangster who planted the bomb in this case?"
"It depends on luck. I think... the probability of encountering gangsters is still very high with you."
Ye Gengyi said noncommittally. After dragging the mouse to transfer the documents from his laptop to his mobile phone, he stood up and said:
"We have to drive a long way tomorrow. Driving while tired is not good. I'm going to sleep."
Haibara Ai:"???"
Wait a minute... Is this person saying that every time he goes out with us, he will encounter an incident?
