46. Cocoon self-restraint
Hehe, Conan didn't believe that Kamikawa instantly had such strength and guts.
"That's right," Conan said to him, and then hung up first. He still has a grudge against him for throwing himself back yesterday.
My dignified detective Kudo Shinichi also wants to save face, and you carried it all the way like a chick, don't think I will forgive you easily!
Seeing Conan hang up, Kamikawa smiled. It was really a happy thing that the props were done, so much so that his attitude of observing the Yamaguchi family was a little easier.
It's a pity that I can't do the disguise technique, otherwise I would really like to go to the scene to see what happened. There is only so much that can be learned from this kind of long-distance viewing.
Yamaguchi's home.
The people from the forensic department were carefully inspecting the scene of the explosion, saying that the scene of the explosion was actually almost clear by the time the police arrived, and the whole villa was wet due to the reaction of the smoke alarm.
The explosive was a crystal ball, and it was no longer possible to tell what it was. And the letter that came with the courier only drew a smiling face. There were no fingerprints on it other than a few people who had been in contact with the house. The rest of the stuff is also a knick-knack that can be bought everywhere on the street.
Matsumoto Kiyocho instructed his subordinates to check on the courier, and he led people into the study on the second floor.
"You say that Councilor Yamaguchi never came out of the study since he entered the study?" Matsumoto Kiyocho asked the butler who was following him, and the butler had gray hair and looked a little trembling.
As he was old, he had seen a lot of things from the attitude of the police towards them, and with today's explosion and the sudden disappearance of Councilor Yamaguchi, he realized that something might be wrong. And it is very likely that Congressman Yamaguchi is about to fall, so he is extremely polite to these police officers, almost asking and answering anything.
"Investigate this room thoroughly to see if there are any secret rooms or anything like that."
"Yes!" With Matsumoto Kiyonaga's order, the police officers quickly moved to probe the possible existence of the mechanism in the room.
He carefully looked at the layout of the room, and then went to look at the other rooms to see if there was any disharmony, reduction or even extra areas in the room.
Between the study and the bedroom, there is clearly a space that is hidden. Matsumoto Kiyoshi walked down the stairs to the first floor, and in the same area on the second floor, there was also a missing piece of the first floor.
The hidden area is likely to be a staircase going down.
"Butler, is there a basement here?" Matsumoto Kiyoshi asked the butler who was following him.
The butler wanted to answer no, but he recalled it carefully and considered his words, "I've never seen the basement entrance in all my years here, maybe there is, but it's hidden. ”
Matsumoto Kiyoshi nodded, remembered something again, and asked the police officer who was following behind him. "Is Yamaguchi-chan's bodyguard under control?"
"Back to the police department, it's all in the hall on the first floor, and we're all watching."
"Leave them alone for the time being, go to the study." As he spoke, he returned to the study.
The area inside the study is smaller than it should be, and the reduced area is behind Yamaguchi's bookcase. With white gloves on, he stepped forward and moved the vase on the bookcase, which he picked up with ease, and put the vase back in place, intending to pick up an inconspicuous wooden sculpture.
But the sculpture seemed to be fixed to the bookcase, and he tried to turn it from side to side. The bookcase splits into two halves and separates from each side, revealing an entrance.
There wasn't much movement in the cabinets, but it caught the eyes of everyone in the room. The entrance is not high, and the inside is pitch black. People can easily enter by bending down.
Matsumoto Kiyocho casually pointed at the two people, "You guys go down and have a look, get your guns ready." ”
The two assigned officers took out their flashlights from their waists and pulled the pistols out of the safe. Cautiously entered the secret room. To be on the safe side, Matsumoto Kiyocho ordered two more people, "You two follow behind." ”
After a few minutes, there was no sound inside. The officer's voice came from below.
"Police, there's a basement down there!"
Hearing the voice, Matsumoto Kiyocho motioned for the rest of the people to continue searching the house to see if they could find any documents related to Yamaguchi's incriminating evidence. I took a few people into the basement myself.
The basement was very empty, and there was a damp smell of desertion. It has not been renovated, and all four walls are very original cement walls.
Turning on the light located on the wall, the officers saw an iron door located in the corner.
There was a thick layer of dust on the floor of the basement, and a line of footprints reached the door. "The forensics department will take pictures of this place first."
Then the group walked to the door and observed the door. It was a heavy iron gate, and Matsumoto Kiyonaga stretched out his hand and pushed it, locking it.
He asked the butler if he had the key, and the butler shook his head.
If you don't have a key, you can only use the mandatory door opening method. "Do you have a chainsaw at home?"
The old butler nodded, "Yes, I'll get it." ”
"Get another sledgehammer." Try to see if you can break the door with brute force with a hammer, and if not, then use a chainsaw to cut the lock body from the door frame.
The housekeeper quickly brought the tools with the help of the police. A sturdy police officer picked up a sledgehammer and began to violently break down the door, and with a few clangs, the iron door began to deform, and even the walls shook faintly.
"Go on."
With the continuous knocking of the pendant, the door frame opened with a loud sound like hitting the metal.
Inside, it was a small, airtight room with thick steel plates on the walls around it, a simple folding bed inside, and water and canned food stacked on the walls.
And Senator Yamaguchi seems to have fainted in bed due to lack of oxygen.
Looking at this prison-like environment, the corners of Matsumoto Kiyoshi's mouth twitched. How afraid of death is this guy, thinking that no one will find him if he hides here?
And he didn't leave a ventilation port, and he fainted because of lack of oxygen!
Being smart and cocooning yourself is really laughable. He stepped forward and sighed at his snort, and breathed.
"Take him out and give him another first aid." Matsumoto Kiyocho commanded two police officers to carry him out, "There is also this secret room, remember to take pictures." After taking a picture, go in and search it to see if there is anything else. ”
In the study on the second floor, two police officers put Councilor Yamaguchi on the ground and gave him a simple CPR.
After a while, Yukie Yamaguchi opened his eyes and looked up to see two policemen wearing police caps. The police looked at him like they were looking at a disgusting bed bug.
Probably after a trip between life and death, Yamaguchi Yukie cried bitterly as soon as he woke up, almost incoherent.
"Get me back to the police station!!I'll turn myself in! I'll recruit them all! I'll tell you all about those who have been involved! Protect me!! ...”
