"Tottori Prefecture, Puppet Ridge, Takeda Family"
In the car, Sotakuya was talking about the clues he got from Miyahara Satoru. According to Miyahara Satoru, this Takeda family is his top line.
Because it was too risky to get goods from the local area in Tokyo, Miyahara Satoru took a different approach and chose to purchase goods from the Takeda family.
In Tottori Prefecture, the Takeda family is also considered one of the top local anesthetic distributors.
The most important thing is that Miyahara Satoru is interested in the Takeda family's transportation.
The reason why Puppet Ridge is called Puppet Ridge is because the Takeda family there have made a living by making puppets from the past to the present, and the puppets they made are very popular in the industry.
But the market demand for puppets is limited, and the heads of the Takeda family of this generation have found new ways to use their puppets.
Those anesthetics that were enough to kill the head were put into exquisite puppets by Takeda Shinichi, the head of the Takeda family, and then transported separately.
They are not afraid if they encounter police interrogation on the way. Anyway, they are just transporting solid puppets. So far, no one has discovered their deeds.
Sotakuya turned his head slightly and asked Toru Amuro, the co-pilot: "Does the Takeda family have any information?"
Before departure, Toru Amuro began to collect information about the Takeda family as usual, but because Puppet Ridge was more like a barren mountain, there was only one Takeda family there.
So there is not much information about the Takeda family.
But not nothing.
"The Takeda family is actually quite famous locally. Because they rarely interact with local people, the Takeda family's reputation is average."
"But the Takeda family seems to have been unlucky in recent years."
"Several murders occurred one after another at Takeda's house. The local police went to the scene to investigate and finally concluded the case as suicide."
"It is worth mentioning that not long ago, a murder occurred in the Takeda family. The deceased's name was Negishi Satohiko. The cause of death was suicide by hanging in the Takeda family's warehouse."
"Negishi." Sotakuya pondered for a moment and asked, "What does this Negishi Satohiko do?"
"He is engaged in selling dolls and puppets, and he often goes to Takeda's house to place orders."
In the final analysis, puppet sales are still sales work, and there is no problem in normal times. However, Takeda Shinichi, the head of the Takeda family, now uses puppets as a carrier for transporting anesthetics.
It’s really hard to say what the ingredients of Negishi Satohiko are.
Is the spoils divided equally or should we wash our hands in a golden basin? There were many reasons for Negishi Satohiko's death, but Sotakuya just felt that the conclusion of suicide was a bit too farfetched.
"Section Chief, do you need to contact the Tottori Prefectural Police Headquarters now? Please ask them to send someone to cooperate with our arrest." Toru Amuro asked Sotakuya.
Zong Takuya thought for a moment: "Forget it, we can just do it ourselves this time."
"I doubt the ability of the Tottori Prefectural Police Headquarters. Instead of finding someone to cause trouble for us, it would be better for the two of us to work harder."
The fact that the Tottori Prefecture police all judged the murders in the Takeda family to be suicides reminded Sotakuya of the forensics section of the Criminal Division.
This act of casually identifying suicide is undoubtedly an unforgivable mistake in Sotakuya's eyes.
Maybe some of the people who died in the Takeda family did commit suicide, but it is impossible that all three of them committed suicide.
Especially Satohiko Negishi. According to Sotakuya's investigation, Satohiko Negishi not only had a wife and children, but also lived a prosperous life.
Business is usually good, and people often come to him to order puppets.
Even not long ago, Negishi Satohiko bought an imported car from an imported car dealer.
How could a person who wanted to commit suicide buy himself a new car before committing suicide?
Not being able to find traces of homicide at a crime scene is a matter of ability. There are many people in the Metropolitan Police who are incompetent.
But to announce that Negishi Satohiko committed suicide without even conducting an in-depth investigation is a matter of attitude.
So Takuya can accept that a police officer is incompetent. Anyway, So Takuya's Special Investigation Division does not recruit incompetent people. Even if he wanted to trick him, he couldn't trick Zong Tuozai.
But ability without attitude is not enough. This is a matter of principle.
Sotakuya's attitude was very clear, and Toru Amuro also agreed, and then he went to check his own gun in the co-pilot.
Ever since Tohru Amuro joined the Special Investigation Division, he rarely used the pistol issued by the brewery, but instead turned around and used the police gun.
According to Toru Amuro, who would be willing to use smuggled weapons secretly since they can use police guns openly.
In fact, what is distributed by the winery cannot be regarded as smuggled weapons.
People throughout the distillery seem to have a penchant for American-style equipment, from pistols to semi-automatic rifles to sniper rifles.
Many of the weapons they use are standard weapons of the US military, and then contact the US military base in Japan. I can’t say more, so this topic will stop here.
It was already very late when Sotakuya drove to Tottori County, Puppet Shop, and Takeda's house under the guidance of Toru Amuro.
The weather was pretty good tonight. When Zong Takuya turned off the engine and got out of the car, the bright moonlight gave him a lot of visibility.
"Spider, it's Master Spider who is causing trouble!!!"
As soon as Sotakuya got out of the car, he heard an old and panicked voice coming from the yard.
Sotakuya and Toru Amuro looked at each other and hurriedly broke in, then followed the direction of the sound.
damn it!
Zong Takuya suddenly felt a strong sense of uneasiness in his heart. It felt like he had used the informant book to search for the current informant and successfully contacted him.
As a result, Sotakuya woke up one morning and received news of the informant's death.
When Sotakuya followed the steps of the Takeda family to the warehouse, he found Takeda Shinichi of the Takeda family hanging in mid-air in a very tragic posture.
The fishing line wrapped around Takeda Shinichi really looks like the silk spun by a giant spider.
Tie Takeda Shinichi tightly in mid-air in the warehouse.
"Are you sure the target is him?" Zong Takuzai pushed aside the crowd and walked towards the interior of the warehouse.
"That's right, Section Chief, this person is Takeda Shinichi, the person we are looking for." Amuro Toru put on gloves for himself as he walked.
"Hey! Who are you two, and how did you get in?!" When Sotakuya and Toru Amuro entered the warehouse.
Takeda Ryuji and Takeda Yuzo, who came later, were staring at them angrily.
It was clear that someone had just died in my family, but these two guys walked in regardless and seemed to want to touch the elder brother's body. How could this be okay!
Only then did Zong Takuya stop and look back. This look didn't matter.
Good guys, are they all familiar faces? !
Sotakuya was not talking about people from the Takeda family, but Kogoro Mori and Conan who came from afar and made a huge contribution to the homicide rate in Tottori Prefecture.
There is also an "international friend" Hattori Heiji who is full of eagerness and desire to challenge.
Sotakuya glanced at the other members of the Takeda family. Well, all of them are talented people. It's just a matter of bringing the Shinigami to his home.
Isn’t that enough? Here’s a buy two get one free offer?
What we are saying is that if you don’t want to live, you can just find a place to wipe your neck. There is really no need to cause trouble to everyone.
