Chapter 356: Accidental commission, Awami Reika's kidnapping incident
The summer vacation came, and Gao Cheng didn't have time to prepare for the vacation plan after participating in the Yamasui Reika concert, and suddenly received an invitation to the TV station first.
Because it's just a very ordinary program, the appearance fee is not too much, but it is also one of his few extra money, and finally played the TV station accompanied by Xiao Ai.
"This case in the Toushen Forest is not just my fault, I am just responsible for reasoning."
Gao Cheng sat in front of the camera with the host, and after several experiences, he was already familiar with these things.
The host smiled: "Detective Chenghu has always been so modest, no matter how you say it, it is a case that spans five years...... Did you meet any fans this time? I heard that some detective fans went to the Aoi House Hotel. ”
Gao Cheng's smile stiffened slightly.
It seems that the person who ran there was a fan of Uncle Maori's guy......
As for his fans, I don't know if Reika Hasami counts.
After recording the show, Gao Cheng felt that his face was completely stiff, this show was the worst he had ever encountered, and he really wanted to give a bad review.
Anyway, I also arranged some fans to sign autographs on the spot, do the little girls like the type of Uncle Maori now?
That's not right, Kudo Shinichi obviously has a lot of female fans, why did he treat him differently?
In the lounge outside the studio, Gray Yuan was wearing a baseball cap, dressed as a little boy, and his face was tightly covered for fear of being photographed by the TV station.
Although it is better than before, no longer has nightmares, and I still like to hide myself when I go to public places.
In fact, the black-clad organization doesn't seem to have made any movement during this time, but occasionally sees the news of the assassination and wonders if the organization did it.
"Little friend," the two girls asked Chi Chi as they passed through the lounge, "Is Detective Joto here recording a show?" We want to get him to sign ......"
"No," Gray Hara lifted his eyelids, "he doesn't sign the young girl." ”
"That's right."
The two girls left disappointed in Gao Cheng's stunned gaze, and they didn't even notice Gao Cheng standing in the corner.
"What's the situation?" Gao Cheng walked into the lounge in a daze, and happened to collide with Gray Yuan's sight.
After a moment of silence, Gray Yuan took the lead in speaking: "Is the program finished?" ”
"It's finished," Gao Cheng pointed outside and asked stunned, "That, ...... just now"
"Detective Joto!" Suddenly, there was an urgent shout in the corridor of the TV station building.
"Is Detective Joto here?"
Gao Cheng poked his head out in confusion and found a long-haired woman wearing glasses sweating profusely to ask the staff about it, and happened to look at the lounge.
"Is it Detective Joto?" The woman panted and walked towards Gao Cheng, with fair skin and a bit of intellectual beauty, looking like she should be engaged in secretarial work.
"I am," Gao Cheng said strangely, "is there anything else?" I've just finished recording the show......"
"I ...... I'm Yasuoka from Dysaki Media," the woman was in a hurry, and grabbed Gao Cheng without saying much, "Please come with me, please!" ”
"Huh? What the hell is going on? ”
Gao Cheng was confused, and he didn't know what the hell was Dysprosium Media......
"Hold, I'm sorry," the woman said anxiously, "because the other party has designated to look for you, please save Reika and my husband!" ”
"Reika?"
The company is not too far from the TV station, but it is not too close, and Gao Cheng and Gray Yuan get into the women's car, and finally roughly figure out what is going on on the way.
Reika Hasamizu, who is going to hold a concert in a few days, was kidnapped at this juncture with her agent Yasuoka Hojichi, and it happened last night.
Arriving at Dysprosium Media, Gao Cheng followed the woman upstairs together, thinking of the smile of Reika Suizu, who had been separated at the Aoiya Hotel before, and his heart was unconsciously tight.
"You're Mr. Joto, aren't you? I'm the secretary Hidenari Kobuchizawa...... This is what I saw in the mailbox of the office this morning, and a letter was sent by a man called 'puppet'......"
The long-awaited secretary to the president of Kazuki Media hurriedly handed over a letter to Gao Cheng.
"He asked us to pay the ransom of Reika and Mr. Yasuoka, 100 million yen."
Gao Cheng got up, silently took the letter, and found that there was a photo in addition to the letter paper.
In the photo, Reika Hasami and a man are tied hand and foot and leaning against the window, and Reika Hasami still has a frightened look on her face.
"This is the agent, Mr. Yasuoka." The secretary explained.
"It's my husband," cried the woman who brought Gao Cheng over, "Detective Joto, please save my husband!" ”
Gao Cheng took the photo and groaned: "But why me? You seem to think that only I can save people......"
"Because it was written," the secretary helped to unfold the letterhead, "and it said that the designated city detective would take the ransom. ”
"Appoint me?"
Gao Cheng's eyes tightened slightly.
The people he and Reika Hayami know should know very little, and even if they do, how could they just ask him for an ordinary friend?
And the other party obviously knows that he is a detective......
Was this a challenge to him? Because his relationship involves Reika Hasami?
Gao Cheng's eyes swept over the concerned people in the office, and the secretary on the side introduced a short-haired aunt who was quite worried, as well as a long-haired woman with a ponytail, and said, "This is our president, Dysprosy Hako...... This is Reika's personal makeup artist, Narumi Tsubii......"
As he spoke, he introduced the woman with glasses and said, "This is Mr. Yasuoka's wife, Manami Yasuoka." ”
Manami Yasuoka, who was introduced, choked up and pleaded, "Please, Detective Joto, please do what the other party said, save my husband!" ”
President Kazuki also wiped away his tears, bowed to Gao Cheng and said, "Baoyuki is my nephew, the only relative, and Lingxiang, both of them are my closest people...... Detective Joto, please do your favor, and I'll give you a generous thank you fee afterwards. ”
Gao Cheng tightened his palms and nodded, "I'll do my best." ”
Even if these people don't say it, he will try to save Reika Hasamizu, the point is that the hostages are easy to tear up after the ransom is paid in the kidnapping case......
Looking back at the photo, a clown-clown assailant can be clearly seen through the reflection of the glass, in a small cabin, with the forest and the rising sun outside the window.
"Detective Chenghu, the money is ready." President Kazuki asked the secretary to hand over a black suitcase to Gao Cheng, which was stacked with stacks of 10,000 banknotes, each bundle tied with a seal, and the total of 100 million cash banknotes looked very impactful.
"I'll leave it to you next."
"Good ......"
Gao Cheng put away the photo, swept the banknotes, his pupils suddenly dilated slightly, and stopped the secretary who was about to close the suitcase.
"What's wrong?" The secretary was surprised.
"Wait a minute."
Gao Cheng opened the suitcase in a deep voice, carefully looked for the trace of incongruity he felt just now, paused, took out a stack of banknotes and looked through them, and found that only the top was the real banknote, and the rest were newspapers.
"There's a black fingerprint on the seal, it's because of the ink that came to the newspaper cut?" Gao Cheng looked at President Kazuki with a stack of banknote-like newspapers, "President Kasaki, if you make this annoying, both Reika and Mr. Yasuoka will be in danger of their lives." ”
"What?" The staff present were shocked, "President, what is this for?!" ”
President Kazuki was silent for a while, and said expressionlessly, "Don't you think 100 million is too much?" ”
"President!"
"No, no, no! Even if Lingxiang is an artist who makes more money in our company, I won't spend so much money for her! ”
President Kazuki waved his hand resolutely, as if he was not negotiable.
"What are you talking about, President?!" Manami Yasuoka said in despair, "Didn't you also say that you would let Reika be your adopted daughter?" Besides, he's your only nephew......"
"These are two different things."
Gao Cheng silently watched Manami Yasuoka and President Kazuki arguing.
Looking at the appearance of these people, they will not pay a ransom of 100 million, but 100 million is not a small amount for him, even if he has received a lot of commissions during this time, the book capital of the office is only about 10 million, not counting the maintenance costs of the Chenghu Mansion and the normal expenses of the office.
Among the people who are more familiar with him, it seems that only the garden family can easily come up with this huge amount of money......
I really don't understand this company, with Lingxiang's development momentum, is it difficult to make 100 million?
