Chapter 165: The Professor Who Died Accidentally 1
On a pleasant day, at the Maori Detective Agency, Maori Kogoro was watching the video of himself making a showy appearance on TV with relish.
Although Mori Lan and Conan looked at Mori Kogoro's appearance with a haz, they had to laugh.
(Isn't it just that a murder case is solved once in a while?) What's so strange about that. )
At this time, Maori Kogoro, who was sitting on the sofa, looked at his "suave" appearance on the TV and laughed. Said to Conan, see if you want to be like me, in the midst of thousands of people, maintain your demeanor and...
Conan looked at him and replied impatiently: "Yes, yes, isn't it just that he has solved a big case?" What is there to be proud of. ”
Maori Kogoro asked angrily, "What, stinky boy, are you itching?" ”
Conan looked at Maori Kogoro who was about to make a move, and quickly hid behind Xiaolan. for her protection.
Maolilan also hurriedly protected Conan with his body. He said, "Dad, why are you still like a child?" ”
(Conan thinks that uncles are children's minds.) If it weren't for me, he wouldn't be anything. )
So, Mori Kogoro ignored Conan and continued to look at the picture of his "great achievements".
Mori Kogoro watched and watched, and when he found that the back of his departure was over, and the next show began to be played, he quickly picked up the black remote control in his hand, reversed the program, and rewatched the scene just now.
(It is said that successful people should show their proper demeanor, but they have not fallen into the law of true fragrance.) Oh, really, when will he be more mature? )
Just as Conan was thinking about what the Black Organization was for, the phone suddenly remembered.
(As for Conan, why didn't Li Xiaohui tell me the truth about the black organization, is what he said true?) If it's true, then I'm going to talk to the whole ... )
When Mori Kogoro heard the phone ringing, he said to Mori Ran, "Ran, pick up the phone quickly." ”
Reluctantly, he walked over to the phone and picked it up. He said, "Hey, hello, this is a Maori detective agency, may I ask you how you can help." ”
"We're game makers. Because the professor we commissioned has been inexplicably missing recently, so..."
Mao Lilan asked in amazement: "You are a game manufacturer?" Ahh
At this point, Kogoro Mori must have decided to refuse the drudgery. He said to Xiaolan: "Tell him that he will not receive and solve any problems today. I'm going to watch Yoko Okino's latest concert. ”
"No, you have to accept the commission. Because our family has recently bought too many small steel balls because of you, and drinking..."
Seeing that Maori Lan was about to shake out his troubles, Maori Kogoro hurriedly said, I accept the head office.
(No one knew that Conan's eyes lit up when he heard Moriran say something about the game.) Because it can be seen from what happened to Mr. Hara last time, they have more than one purpose. I can't say, they rely on this, they can... )
Then Maoriran began to jot down what they had said from the notebook on the table.
"A game software engineer, not only why, lost contact a week ago..."
When Mori Lan finished remembering these things, after seeing Mori Kogoro's indifferent attitude, he said angrily: "Hurry up and clean up your appearance, you will be embarrassed when the guests come." ”
Although Mori Kogoro was very reluctant to do so. But looking at the murderous Mao Lilan, he had no choice but to reluctantly agree to Mao Lilan's request and go to the bathroom to dress up his image...
(Conan thought to himself, "It's better that Sister Xiaolan is here.") This can kill his sharpness well. ”)
"And you, Conan. Remember to help me clean the living room of the office! ”
"Yes, Sister Xiaolan."
Subsequently, Conan and Maolilan worked together to clean up the office...
(Who called Maori Kogoro is usually too lazy.) Although it's usually Maoriran who does it alone. However, guests are coming soon, and time may be running out. So Conan's help was needed. )
Half an hour later, the three clients arrived at the Maori Detective Agency.
Conan hastened to prepare juice for them to drink. They were then invited to sit on the couch in the living room.
Mori Kogoro said, "Who are you looking for?" You tell me.
They then handed the photo of the expert they were looking for to Kogoro Mori.
Looking at the photo, a middle-aged man wearing a dark green shirt, black-framed glasses, a sharp nose, a mustache, and a middle-parted head.
Kogoro Mori then put down the photo. Is that what you're looking for? Isn't he Mr. Itakura, a game software engineer? Are you saying that it's not just the first time that I've lost contact inexplicably?
The young man in the brown suit said, "As long as he designs the game software, when the delivery time is approaching, he always disappears." ”
At this time, the man with sparse hair in a dark gray suit also agreed.
Looking at the man in the green suit who was more anxious, he said anxiously: "The day after tomorrow is his delivery date." We don't have that much time to wait. You know, time is money. The gameplay he designed was about our company's profits. So..."
Mori Kogoro nodded. He said, "I understand everything you have said. In this case, you should ask the police for help first, and I will pay more attention to his situation for you. We will give you a reply within 36 hours at the earliest. ”
At this time, the man in the dark green suit said that we had also approached the police, but they thought we were vexatious, so...
(When Conan heard this, he felt that it should have nothing to do with them.) Unbeknownst to him, however, that Mr. Itakura was working on the laser XCOM software program. Although their hardware is ready, it is still a bit troublesome to have some power-ups and friendly identification systems on the tank. So... )
Mori Kogoro nodded, and said that I will inform you when you leave.
At this time, the man in the dark gray suit hurriedly took out his business card, saying that there was any clue and he wanted to contact me quickly...
"No, why are you so selfish. This is the president of our company, but he has paid the most. ”
"No, I also have a share of this credit..."
Maori Kogoro looked at the three people who were arguing endlessly, and asked embarrassedly, "You say, isn't it a family?" ”
Dressed in a brown suit, Mr. Sukeji introduced himself, "I'm a company that specializes in making game software. ”
The man in a dark gray suit introduced: "I'm Naito Dinghei, and I'm also a company that specializes in making game software. It's just that he's in charge of the development of our next version. Chess. ”
The man who looked more anxious introduced: "My name is Kosuke Soma Ryu, and I asked him to help us fix the bugs in the chess software." Because many pieces either disappear by themselves, or the pieces do not follow the prescribed route. ”
Kogoro Maori suspected that they were telling a lie. Because can one person really be able to develop, design, and patch three pieces of software at the same time?
At this time, the three of them said in unison: "That's why we have to ask clearly." Don't play us like monkeys. ”
Ryusuke Soma, who was wearing a green suit, explained: "He also made a special promise that he would only serve our company, but I didn't expect it..."
Mr. Naito agreed, "Yes, I didn't expect him to take three jobs!" Isn't this obviously deception? ”
After looking at their anxious eyes, Mori Kogoro said, "Then when did you know that he was in charge of the work of three people at the same time?" ”
Mr. Naito took out the laptop he was carrying with him and said, "Look, this is a letter sent to the three of us." It reads..."
(I've been busy lately, but... Believe me, I will definitely give you a satisfactory answer on time. )
Conan looked at the letter sent by the Itakura expert, and there was indeed no problem. He shook his head helplessly, and then listened to the conversation between the three of them.
At this time, Mao Lilan looked at the photo on the table, and was surprised to say that this is not Professor Itakura, who does CG?
Mr. Naito nodded and said, "Yes." He is often featured in movies. Later, it should be for personal reasons that I started a game job. ”
Kogoro Maori thinks that maybe he is being targeted by some poor and crazy person.
Mr. Naito expressed alarm. "No." Although he is very famous, he is known to spend lavishly. ”
Ryusuke Soma looked at Mr. Naito, who had a melancholy face. Dragged his head with his right hand and replied: "No, although this is the case, but his remuneration for each work is at least more than 5 million yuan, and he can do it..."
Mori Kogoro watched Soma Ryusuke talk more and more outrageous, and quickly stopped what he wanted to say next.
They knew something they shouldn't say, and they started talking about Professor Itakura's disappearance.
At the same time, when Conan heard Ryusuke Soma say that there was a strong man in a black suit with a Kansai accent who had gone to look for him 2 years ago.
Conan's mind suddenly came alive again. He decided that as long as the case was solved, he must discuss it with Li Xiaohui and see what to do.
(At this time, according to the clues of absinthe, Li Xiaohui and the others knew that Gin was their next move.) So he personally decided to signal Toru Amuro to help. Of course, after Amuro found out, he said that we would pay attention to this matter and tell us in time if there was any situation. )
Conan watched them talk more and more, and hurried to their side. Q: "You know what they said at the time. ”
Ryusuke Soma looked at Conan with an anxious look on his face, and replied speechlessly, "What does this have to do with us?" Also, we don't know what they said. By the way, there is another sentence..."
So, what did the man in black say at that time, what made Conan nervous...
