Chapter 596 - Save the Girl Series

Kataoka's family, Gao Cheng followed Twilight and his party a little distractedly, disguised as a partner of the Kataoka Group and infiltrated the luxury mansion.

The same Hanshiro Kataoka who went to the theater to take away the heroine was still frowning in the hall, and even if the police came over, they only let their secretary Daikoto receive him.

"The ransom is 150 million yuan...... Each of the three companies, Imai Electronics Kato Network and Nakao Communication, will prepare a copy of the specified amount by 2 p.m., and hand it over to the secretary to deliver the money to the parking lot in Yoshioka 1-chome......"

Twilight groans as she sits down in front of her laptop to check her email, and in addition to the text, there is a video of Kataoka Hayaka being kidnapped.

"The threatening letter was sent an hour ago, but what about the sender?"

"I don't know."

"About the kidnappers demanded that the ransom be prepared by these three companies......"

"All three of them have recently done business with our company," explained Daiko, who had gotten Kataoka's consent, "and all of them proposed to Mr. Kataoka to Miss Renka......

"So, Miss Lianhua ran away from home in order to escape from marriage?" Gao Cheng especially looked at Hanshiro Kataoka, who had a straight face.

As a result, he only got his daughter back for marriage, and he couldn't compare with the Suzuki family, which had a harmonious family relationship.

"You are?"

Kataoka Hanshiro looked at Gao Cheng suspiciously, he didn't particularly care about Gao Cheng when he was in the Rice Flower Theater before, but the secretary next to him, Daguan, thought about it, and his face changed slightly: "Is this ......?"

"Oh," Twilight said, standing up from the side of the computer, "This is Detective Joto, and our special adviser to the police, so we happened to be together and asked Detective Joto to come over and help." ”

"Yes, yes?" Daguan pushed his black-rimmed glasses with a slight sweat on his forehead, "But there shouldn't be a detective in the kidnapping case, right?" ”

"Detectives aren't just good at murders."

Gao Cheng's gaze paused on Daguan, and carefully checked the threatening email on the computer.

The attached video shows Kataoka being tied up in a place that looks like a warehouse, and you can see the scenery outside the window.

However, the middle of the image seems to be cut off, and the next second the curtain becomes closed.

In addition, there are a few frames in which Kataoka Renhua's movements are a little unnatural, the mouth is indeed sealed with duct tape, but the arms are moving, especially a few seconds after the curtain is drawn, the front and back two pictures are taken out separately, and Kataoka Renhua's abnormality can be clearly found.

Although they were all curled up and leaning against the left side of the window, when the curtains were closed, they looked a little different, and the position of the rope wrapped around the body also changed.

For a kidnapping involving an amount of 150 million, this video is too unprofessional, and even if you are afraid of the window, you can cut out or re-record the previous video.

And after the curtain was closed, Kataoka Renhua had an extra piece of spider silk on her head, and if you look closely, it should have been stained with the spider web in the upper right corner of the window.

If it was Kataoka Renka herself who pulled the curtains, could it be a fake kidnapping designed by Kataoka Renka?

Gao Cheng had a headache for a while.

I knew that I wouldn't come to Kataoka's house, but Conan also knew about the situation, and the troupe was still waiting for the heroine, so it was estimated that they would come over.

It's really messy enough, is it to help Officer Twilight solve the case or wait to see Kataoka Renhua first?

"What's going on with those three companies now?" Twilight asked the secretary Daguan thoughtfully.

"In fact, just now, one of the three suitors said that his company was not in good condition and did not help us prepare the ransom ......"

"Humph! Nonsense! Kataoka Hanshiro snorted coldly, "He's just afraid of trouble and scandal!" Compare my daughter Lianhua's life with the reputation of his company! ”

"But what about the ransom demanded by the kidnappers?"

"I've been ready for a long time, ostensibly in the name of his company......"

"That's right."

Gao Cheng grabbed his hair and looked at the people who were still in a solemn atmosphere.

At 2 o'clock, it was just the beginning of the touring troupe's performance, why did Kataoka choose such a time? Delaying time? But I really didn't see Kataoka Renka at the theater......

After a while, Conan followed the elders to Kataoka's house, and took advantage of the gap between Yunosuke and everyone to quickly find Gao Cheng to secretly understand the situation.

"In other words, was the kidnapping planned by Miss Lianhua herself?" Conan and Gao Cheng went outside to the hallway to talk.

"It's a little hard to say," Gao Cheng looked at the secretary in the room, who had been explaining the situation to the police, "If Miss Lianhua planned it, it is very likely that she would go to the theater now...... In short, it's best to find Miss Lianhua first. ”

"Okay," Conan nodded, "I think she probably wanted to use the fake kidnapping so that Mr. Kataoka could understand her thoughts......"

"Fake kidnapping?" Tamanosuke appeared on the side of the hallway, "Are you serious? ”

"It should be very likely."

"In that case, I might know where that warehouse is in the video."

Ito Yunosuke thought for a while, avoided everyone in the room and said softly: "I'll take you to have a look, we rented a place to put costumes, props and other things, and Renhua seems to have a key there......"

"Okay."

Finding an excuse to deal with Officer Twilight, Takasei and Conan leave Kataoka's house with Tamanosuke Ito, and soon get into a taxi and rush to a warehouse house that looks a little old.

"Tamanosuke," Gao Cheng looked at Tamanosuke Ito, who took out the key to open the door of the warehouse, "You probably don't want Miss Renka to leave one, right?" ”

"A Taketori Monogatari that really needs a lotus flower, and the Taketori Monogatari without Kaguyahime is not a Taketori Monogatari......"

Ito Tamanosuke didn't seem to like to talk much, so he silently pushed open the door and searched for it in the warehouse.

"There doesn't seem to be anyone here."

"That's it, yes."

Gao Cheng went straight to a window, and a rope could be seen on the wooden floor, and some blood was sprinkled on the ground next to it.

It's not blackened yet, and apparently it hasn't been left for long, probably within today's day.

"What's wrong?" Ito Tamanosuke saw Gao Cheng squatting down, walked closer in confusion, and suddenly turned pale when he saw the bloodstains, "This is ...... Lianhua? Detective Joto, what's going on? ”

"Don't panic." Gao Cheng frowned and calmly looked around.

At least it was a fake kidnapping at first, but something seemed to have happened halfway through......

Kataoka Renka's fake kidnapping turned into a real kidnapping, and the prisoner is likely to be the person who originally helped Kataoka Renhua implement the plan, a 17-year-old girl who can ask for help at Kataoka's house and is also the most suitable person for help......

The figure of the secretary Daguan flashed in front of Gao Cheng's eyes.

If the prisoner was a facilitator, Kataoka Renka's life would be in danger, why is it such a bad thing?

Are you going to become a girl savior?

Gathering his thoughts, Gao Cheng stood up and opened the curtains, opposite the warehouse was a construction site, and when he came, he happened to pass by, it was a shop called "Yuya".

The top priority is to find Kataoka Renhua as soon as possible, and can only start with the secretary Daiko.

"Detective Joto," Ito Tamanosuke squeezed his palm, "I can trouble you...... Could you please find Lianhua? ”

"We're going back to Kataoka's house now," Gao Cheng turned around and comforted Ito Tamanosuke, "You still have one over there to be busy, let's go back first, one can't be without a ......."

"But Lianhua ......"

"I also want to see Kaguya-hime's performance, don't worry, I'll definitely bring Miss Lianhua over safely," Gao Cheng smiled and asked, "How long will it take for Miss Lianhua to be on the stage?" ”

"This ......" Ito Yunosuke said in a deep voice, "The whole scene is less than two hours, even if Xiaolan temporarily acts as a stand-in, the ** scene that requires Lianhua to show up will be ...... in about an hour and a half"
