The next day, at 5:59 in the morning, the work truck of the Japanese television station drove out of the company gate and onto the road.
Mizuno Reina was sitting in the back seat of the work car. The meeting with Kashasha last night made her think a lot and it was difficult to fall asleep.
Due to lack of sleep, she now had throbbing pain near her temples, but out of professionalism, Mizuno Reina still wore a polite smile belonging to the host and looked in high spirits - even if there was no audience.
As a well-known host, Rena Minami has a very full schedule. On today's morning news, she needs to interview the chairman of a new company.
Because in another district of Tokyo, they had to hit the road very early.
Shui Wulian looked out the window.
The morning light was dim, and the scenery on the roadside flew backwards. First there were desolate and low factory buildings, and then there were artificially planted small trees that had not yet sprouted branches and buds. They were the same height, and after the speed of the car stabilized, they looked like another kind of tree. static.
There are very few cars on the road at this time. Through the corner of her eye, Rena Mizuna saw a gray van following them.
From her perspective, the van was getting bigger and bigger, and seemed to be accelerating.
At this moment, she heard a loud "bang" and the car body was hit hard!
Under the influence of inertia, Shui Wu Liannai's head hit the back seat of the car hard. Although there was a soft cushion, she still saw stars in her eyes.
The gray van suddenly accelerated and rear-ended it with great force. Misfortunes never come singly. The road ahead happened to take a sharp turn. The driver was in panic and had no time to slow down. He turned the steering wheel suddenly to the right, narrowly avoiding the fate of hitting the guardrail.
But, even more fatally, there was water on the road.
Therefore, under the action of centrifugal force, the entire car rolled over toward the inside of the curve and inevitably crashed into the guardrail on the other side.
"boom--!"
“Boom—!”
There was another loud noise, and the car broke through the guardrail and got stuck between two thin trees. One of them broke instantly, and the other bent in a dangerous arc. Black tracks were left on the ground. Dust and black smoke billowed up.

Inside the car, Mizuno Reina felt a dizzying sensation amidst the violent vibrations. She couldn't see anything clearly, her field of vision was full of color patches, and the seat belt tightened around her so hard that she screamed unconsciously. .
But Yin Sen Bentang, who was sitting next to Mizumu Reina, was in a worse situation.
He was not wearing a seat belt and his whole body collided in the small space. Fortunately, Lord Yin Sen quickly grabbed the handle of the car roof and the back of the front seat with his hands to stabilize himself, although the effect was minimal.
As a result, when the whole car flipped sideways, Yin Sen was thrown to the right window.
"Damn..." After the car stopped, Lord Yin Sen struggled to get up and cursed, blood spilling from the corners of his mouth.
Mizuki Reina also felt uncomfortable. She was suspended in the seat by the seat belt, but her body fell due to gravity. The neck was sore from being strangled.
"Cough...cough..."
I had a splitting headache, and a sharp ringing roared in my ears. After all the dust settled, Shui Wulian reluctantly spoke:
"How's everyone doing?"
"I'm fine." Lord Yin Sen wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth.
The work truck of Nippon Television Station is very large, with six seats. Hondo Yinsen and Reina Mizuno sit in the middle row. There is a partition between them and the driver's seat in front - there have been cases of drivers pressing the camera in the car before. .
Therefore, they could not see the driver's condition, but judging from the sound from the front seat, the driver should have passed out.
Must get out as soon as possible.
In the event of a car rolling over, if the fuel tank leaks, an explosion is likely to occur. Mizuki Reina, who was tied to the seat, tried hard to dig at the car door with her hands, trying to open the car.
The car door seemed to be deformed in the impact, and no matter how hard Mizuno Reina tried, it didn't help.
At this moment, a figure was reflected on the cracked car window.
The figure gradually enlarged. The man bent down and banged on the glass with a sharp instrument. Once, twice, three times... there are more and more cracks on the car window.
Shui Wu Reina let go of her hand holding the car door, and she subconsciously turned her head. Soon, the car window shattered, and a few pieces scratched her cheek.
"Hello, Miss Rena Minami." The visitor was wearing a voice changer, and his voice sounded weird and nondescript.
Shui Wu Lian turned his head and looked at the visitor. The man was dressed in black, wearing a mask and sunglasses, tightly wrapped, but his hair was dyed a fashionable gray and fluttered wildly in the wind.
Yin Sen, who was on the right side of Reina Mizuna, also recognized who it was and put the pistol back at his waist. Then he swore a dirty word with great energy, a very dirty word.
"Okay, okay, don't be so grumpy. In order for the rest of the game to go smoothly, I need you to be quiet." The disguised Kashasha took out a small tube of potion from his sleeve and opened the seal.
Suddenly, Mizuki Reina's vision fell into darkness.

Seven o'clock in the morning, Yoneka Town, Mori Detective Agency.
"Dad! You drink again!"
Mao Lilan angrily broke into her father's studio. Mao Li Kogoro's face was red, and he was sleeping soundly on the table, with the wine bottle swaying on the floor. There was a bad smell throughout the room.
Mao Lilan slapped her palm on the table.
This palm caused a wave of air. Tree-like cracks spread across the desktop, and piles of files were scattered on the floor. Mouri Kogoro was shaken by the shock and was mostly awake from the wine.
"Ah, Xiaolan, listen to me explain, that matter——"
"You left the TV on all night! I went to Yuanzi's house to stay all night! Why did it end up like this!"
"Oh, Miss Yoko is so charming, I forgot to turn it off after reading it..."
Mouri Kogoro rubbed the back of his head with a guilty look on his face. He picked up the remote control and tried to turn off the TV. As a result, my hand shook and I pressed the wrong button, and the TV switched from a variety show to a news program.
"Nichimai TV station encountered a car accident during the interview. Judging from the traces on the scene, the well-known host Rena Mizuno was hijacked by unknown persons..." The reporter who broadcast the news looked serious.
The camera cuts to a car stuck in the middle of a tree. The police have cordoned off the car.
"The water girl was kidnapped?" Mao Lilan was instantly attracted by the report.
When Mouri Kogoro saw the transfer of firepower, he was instantly relieved. He showed his detective nature and began to guide Jiangshan:
"Mizuki Reina probably has some kind of enemy. There must be many people who can't love such a beautiful host..."
Mao Lilan rolled her eyes. She knew how unreliable her father was.
The girl with the strange hairstyle quickly rushed out of the studio: "Dad, you can make breakfast yourself. I'll go find Shinichi and ask about it!"

Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department, Search Section 1.
After receiving the news, Kudo Shinichi took his childhood sweetheart to the police early. The little detective frowned.
"This incident happened at 6:30 in the morning, and the person who reported it was Miss Rena Minami's mobile phone." Kudo Shinichi analyzed, "The report was made by the suspect who kidnapped Miss Mizuno. eucalyptus. He also took away Shui Wu Lina’s personal assistant and only left the driver at the eucalyptus discovery site.”
"The surveillance along the entire road has been damaged. These people must have been plotting for a long time." Officer Megure added, "They know the itinerary of the Japanese TV station, and the participants are likely to be insiders."
"More importantly, this." Kudo Shinichi pointed at the photo on Officer Megure's desk.
The photo shows a piece of white paper left at the scene of the eucalyptus discovery, with a sentence written on it:
"The game begins~"
