Late, 8:17.
In the izakaya, the waitress placed the dishes on the table, put down the two bottles of wine, bowed and backed away, "Please use it slowly."
"How is it? Is the environment of this store okay?" Mouri Kogoro poured a glass of wine, took a sip, and sighed comfortably, "Oh, this wine is really good!"
Chi Feichi tasted the food. It tasted good or bad. It was standard Japanese food. "It's okay."
Yes, he skipped work, took off his disguise and came over to have dinner with Mouri Kogoro.
Of course, it wasn't all skipping work. He told Gin in advance that he would go out for a meal and wait for Shui Wu Lianna to deal with it. If he could pick him up, he would go. If he couldn't go, Ginji would go.
"The noise means business is good, and today from 8 to 10 o'clock, you can eat and drink as much as you want for one price," Mouri Kogoro poured the wine again and said carelessly, "What else are you dissatisfied with?"
"I'm not dissatisfied." Chi Feichi said calmly.
"Uh..." Mouri Kogoro looked up, then lowered his head speechlessly and continued drinking.
His apprentice is very sober and is used to it.
"Why don't you call Xiaolan and the others?" Chi Feichi asked.
"Xiaolan and that kid?" Mouri Kogoro was immersed in drinking. "If I call Xiaolan, how can I have a good drink? There is no need for men to call them when they drink. Don't worry, Xiaolan will do a good job. Take that brat for dinner!"
Chi Feichi silently poured a glass of wine and took a sip.
Xiaolan usually doesn't perform full martial arts, so she is quite patient with this dad...
In less than an hour, Maori Kogoro drank too much. He hung up the call from Maori Lan and waved to the waiter with his tongue hanging out, "One more...another bottle!"
Chi Feichi was also dragged into drinking a lot of wine. He took out his mobile phone and dialed the landline of the Maori Detective Agency.
"Hello, hello, this is the Mori Detective Agency..."
"I'm Chi Feichi. Teacher Maori drank too much. We are at the izakaya at No. 61, Mihua Town 1-chome. I'll send you away later..."
"Brother Chi? Wait a minute, we'll be there right away!"
"Beep...beep..."
This time, someone else hung up the phone on Chi Feichi first.
Chi Feichi looked at the time displayed on his phone. There were still more than two hours. After sending Maori Kogoro back, he should still have time to get some water. Wu Lianna said, "Teacher, don't just drink..."
"Don't just eat food, drink instead!" Maori Kogoro took the wine brought by the waiter, opened the bottle and filled a glass, then smiled and raised his glass to Chi Feichi, "Here, cheers!"
Chi Feichi raised his glass and touched it with Maori Kogoro. Seeing that Maori Kogoro was bored again, he drank it in one gulp.
When Maori Lan arrived with Conan, Maori Kogoro was already drunk and lying on the table.
Chi Fei went to pay the bill late and helped to help Maori Kogoro leave.
"Brother Fei Chi, I'm so sorry," Mao Lilan also helped support me, "I still need your help with the checkout."
"It's okay." Chi Feichi said.
Conan looked around and said, "Brother Chi, didn't you drive over?"
"I want to drink, but it's closed." Chi Feichi made an excuse.
His red Lexus was parked in Ginza, and the car he took from the organization was parked in Kamiyama Town, both of which were quite far away.
"I want to drink..." Mouri Kogoro murmured inarticulately, "Come again!"
"This is not far from the detective office. We can walk back and get there in about twenty minutes..." Mao Lilan said to Chi Feichi and then complained to Mao Li Kogoro, "Dad, you have drunk too much. !”
As we walked all the way, there was no one else in the alley at night.
Boom!
Next to the street, on the second floor of a residential building, the window glass suddenly broke, attracting the realization of Chi Feichi and four others.
A young man wearing glasses pushed open the balcony glass door, looked down, and turned back to complain, "Don't throw things away, okay? You go back!"
In the room, another voice seemed very angry: "You want me to go back? You bastard, how dare you ask me to go back?!"
The bespectacled man turned around and returned to the house, seeming to start shoving with the people in the house, "What are you doing? Let go, Nakamoto!"
"Stop being so wordy!"
The curtains blocked the glass door, and the two people in the room seemed to be continuing to argue.
Chi Feichi turned around and looked at his side's lineup. The Maori trio were all there...
After finally skipping work and coming to drink, is this going to happen again?
Mao Lilan listened to the noise in the room over there, turned around and asked, "What should I do, Brother Chi?"
"What else can we do?" Mouri Kogoro retracted the arms held by the two of them, walked the S route, and swayed over. "Since I saw it and can't ignore it, I'll go... to break up the fight."
"I'll go take a look," Chi Feichi grabbed Maori Kogoro, handed him to Mao Lilan, and stared at Maori Kogoro, "Please stay well."
It's cold!
Mouri Kogoro raised his eyes and met the coldly silent gaze, sobering up a little, "Uh... okay..."
"Don't worry," an old man with a long beard came over with his dog, turned to look at the second floor window, and said with a smile, "The two of them usually fight like this, but every time they have a fight After that, it didn’t take long for them to laugh and make up again.”
As he said that, he bent down and touched the Shiba Inu's head, "right?"
The Shiba Inu wagged its tail, raised its head and rubbed the old man's palm, narrowed its eyes and whined, "It's delicious, it's delicious..."
Chi Feichi lowered his head to look at the dog.
This kind of dog with a docile personality and close to people, when talking about simple words, most of them are 'master is the best', 'master, master', 'happy'...
Of course, it depends on the type and personality of the pet.
Is this a foodie dog? Or is this old man a dog dealer who cheats dogs out of food?
When Mouri Kogoro heard what the old man said, he decisively gave up the idea of trying to break up the fight, "Really, I'm worrying in vain..."
"Your pet doesn't like eating very much, does it?" Chi Feichi moved his eyes upward to look at the old man, and immediately realized something was wrong.
The person in front of me looks rickety, but the corresponding bending of the arms is wrong, and the knees are deliberately bent a little, creating the illusion of aging.
Moreover, the long beard is a bit too shiny. Outside of the area covered by the long beard, the skin is smooth and seems to have no wrinkles. Although it is a bit blurry in dim light,...
Does he think everyone is blind?
This is obviously disguised by a young man without a beard...
The man didn't know that he had been seen through, so he smiled and said in a slow voice, "It, it's just that I haven't had a good appetite recently, and I usually eat a lot."
Chi Fei didn't say anything for a while, watching the man leave, and then helped Maori Kogoro to continue walking forward.
Don't think about it, something must have happened and there is something wrong with this 'old man'.
It's just that he still has to go get some water for Wu Liannai, so it's best not to cause any trouble tonight...
"Brother Chi, what happened to that dog?" Conan asked proactively.
He didn't think Chi Feichi was the kind of talkative person.
"It has a lot of hair, but it's a bit dry," Chi Feichi said calmly, "It lacks trace elements."
Conan: "..."
Is this an occupational disease?
But, having said that, Chi Feichi still knows that he is a veterinarian?
Chi Fei sent Mouri Kogoro back to the detective agency late, citing the reason of "going home to rest", so he didn't stay any longer. He took a taxi to Kamiyama Town, put on a freckled man's disguise, and then drove to get water for Mureina.
It was a little early when we arrived near Kabukicho, and we waited for more than ten minutes before Rena Minami called.
Chi Feichi drove the car over, took the water and left without Liannai.
Shui Wulian got into the car, smelled a hint of alcohol, and asked curiously, "You went to drink?"
"Well, you will drive later." Chi Feichi drove the car to a remote alley, "How is the situation?"
"Oshima Kazumi didn't lie before," Reina Mizuna didn't dare to pry further and got back to business, "I said I had a cold and my throat was uncomfortable. I covered up the strangeness in my voice and gathered with the three women who managed other stores. After chatting together for a while, they probably didn’t realize that the person had been replaced, and they knew the same things as Oshima Kazumi. In addition, Noriko Eguchi seemed to be a very difficult woman to deal with..."
Noriko Eguchi's father was originally a member of the Yamaguchi-gumi, but his status was very low. In comparison, Noriko Eguchi was much stronger. He joined when he was about 17 years old and has been there for 15 years now.
From the past analysis obtained by Mizuki Reina, she is a woman who is good at observing people's emotions and is ruthless enough, but she likes to show off, be arrogant and save face...
Reina Mizuna came into contact with me, and after investigation, it was found that Noriko Eguchi had two sets of keys.
According to the intelligence, Noriko Eguchi has three residences, five large shops, plus two residential buildings for persecuted girls, and she has many keys.
There were seventeen keys in one bunch and five in the other. No safe keys or anything like that was found...
At a street intersection, Chi Feichi got out of the car and said, "You drive."
Shui Wulian also got out of the car, turned to the driver's seat, and continued, "There were too many keys, I didn't have time to print them down, and she was watching her very closely. I pretended to accidentally spill the coffee on her, trying to take advantage of her to change clothes. When I went to see if I could print two models to determine the use of her two sets of keys, but even when she went to change clothes, she didn't put the keys outside, but brought them in."
"Um……"
Chi Feichi sent an email to Ginjiu, summarizing the information he obtained.
The addresses of three residences, the addresses of five stores and two residential buildings, two sets of keys that are valued, personality habits, contacts...
Having the art of disguise is really convenient for gathering information, and it is easier to deal with people who are not from intelligence organizations.
After waiting for about three minutes, Gin called.
"Hello?"
"I found a piece of news from Bourbon that the woman's residence in Minato City was under construction seven years ago. They used the Yamaguchi Group's own engineering team. Although many people in the Yamaguchi Group rebuilt houses like this, it obviously does not count. It's old but renovated. She doesn't live there often, she always lives in Wenjing District, and only this residence has been under construction. If there are no other places, then that's probably where the cash is stored."
Ginjiu's tone over there was calm, but Chi Feichi felt that Ginjiu was in a good mood.
That's right, if everything goes well, this operation will be closed soon.
"Have you found anyone to confirm?" Chi Feichi asked.
"Confirming," Gin said, "Tonight a big boss of the Yamaguchi-gumi will hold a meeting. Eguchi Noriko's lover will also come over and will not go back until three in the morning. We will act after confirming it. You go to Taitung District first. She's already heading over there."
"OK."
Chi Feichi hung up the phone and said helplessly to Shui Wulian, "Go to Taitung District."
According to the information obtained by Reina Mizuno, the driver and housekeeper at Eguchi Noriko's house are both members of the Yamaguchi-gumi, and there are also two bodyguards.
During the day, she would take care of three of them while leaving the housekeeper at home. At night, all four of them would protect her. If her lover, a high-ranking member of the Yamaguchi-gumi team, came over, there would be even more manpower.
It seems that it would be better to do it during the day, but during the day, Eguchi Noriko's activity area is within the Yamaguchi-gumi's territory, and there are more manpower.
If it's just an assassination, just snipe Eguchi Noriko on her way to a certain place, but they also need to get the two sets of keys. If someone dies on the way, it will definitely attract the attention of passers-by, and it will be difficult to secretly take away the keys. , it is best to deal with it at close range and leave after taking the key.
Judging from the importance Noriko Eguchi takes, there must be a key to the place where cash is stored among the two sets of keys.
Of course, there's no way to be 100% certain.
It's just that more than one billion in cash is a lot, but it's nothing to Gin. All it takes is blackmailing two more people or conducting two more black transactions. Gin obviously doesn't want to waste too much time on this matter. Judging from the clues we have so far, it is enough to take action.
