43 Miki Noguchi's attitude
After Suzuki's words were cut off, the sound of machinery sounded again:
"Diamonds, when will they be ready?"
"No matter how much my father likes to collect diamonds, it's not so easy to get a billion yen worth of diamonds! Gotta give us an hour or so! ”
The tone seemed pleading, and Miki Noguchi said.
"Okay, I'll get back to you in that hour."
At this point, the phone was hung up. With trembling hands, Miki Noguchi put the phone back on the table.
"The time is too short to determine the location of the kidnappers."
It's a bit of a pity, Wataru Takagi said.
"If only the phone call could be delayed a little longer, we would be able to determine the location of the kidnappers, among other things."
Kogoro said with a serious expression.
"Then I'll try it for you!"
The tone was trembling, but a slight displeasure was clearly audible, Miki Noguchi said.
"Alright, Miki-san has behaved well."
Officer Twilight said.
"Anyway...... The voice on the phone just now was undoubtedly Suzuki's sono. So we can confirm her life, and Miss Yuri's life is confirmed from the mouth of the garden. ”
Kogoro immediately changed the topic and saved face.
"But the kidnapper is a very smart guy."
Thoughtfully, Gao Yuan said.
"Huh? Why? ”
Wataru Takagi asked.
"Just now, Miss Yuanzi tried to imagine us conveying some information, and as soon as she said that she was wearing headphones, blindfolded, and wearing a mask with a strong perfume smell, the kidnappers did not know how to stop her from continuing. In other words, these things should have been put on by the kidnappers. ”
"So what? How can this be seen that the kidnappers are smart? ”
Kogoro said with some disdain.
"In general, it is quite normal for a kidnapper to blindfold a hostage. However, the ears are generally not blocked. ”
Gao Yuan explained:
"If your ears can hear sounds, you can roughly tell where you are from the sounds around you. For example, the sound of construction, the sound of trains, etc., no matter what the sound is, it is at least an important clue. In the same way, the nose does a similar thing, and if you can smell something, it can also be used as a clue to find where the hostages are. ”
"But the garden was deprived of all sight, hearing, and smell."
When Xiaolan heard this, she fell into deep thought.
"Well, the opponent this time is just like what the wise brother said, a guy who can even think of using a hearse, and it's very difficult to deal with."
Officer Twilight nodded with deep feeling.
"But no matter what, you must arrest him!"
Miki Noguchi said anxiously:
"Otherwise, because of my sister's stupidity, my father will have to take more than half of the inheritance that my father has left us!"
"Indeed!"
Kogoro put himself in his shoes and nodded sympathetically, "If a billion yen worth of diamonds were taken away all at once, it would be a great loss." ”
But watching the show, it was said that because Miss Yuri and Miss Miki are half-sisters, the relationship is not good. Now it seems that if you can prepare so much money for your sister, the relationship between the two is actually very good. ”
Xiaolan said with relief.
But what I didn't expect was that Miki Noguchi, who heard this, raised her eyebrows all of a sudden:
"If my sister had been killed because I was stingy and didn't pay the ransom, I would have been covered by the media and criticized by the public. I didn't want to be like that, so I had to pay. ”
Miki Noguchi was a little annoyed, and spit out her true thoughts, while Kamoshida on the side tried to stop Miki Noguchi's excitement:
"Miss Miki, you're talking too much."
Gu annoyed
"What is going too far? Kamoshida, we still fill the box with low-quality diamonds and hand it over to the kidnappers. ”
Angry, Miki Noguchi said.
"Huh? However, in that case, Miss Yuri's life ...... safe."
Overwhelmed, Kamoshida said.
"It's okay. If you hand over all the diamonds worth a billion yen, the Noguchi family will be hollowed out. ”
Miki Noguchi said proudly:
"And the second lady of the big chaebol Suzuki family was also kidnapped together, wasn't she? If something happens to her, our company will be completely destroyed by the Suzuki family in no time. At that time, won't all you have to rely on is diamonds? Didn't you think of this situation a long time ago? ”
Kamoshida couldn't refute it, so he could only bow his head silently.
"Sonoko's father is not the kind of person who will go to trouble the Noguchi family's company because his daughter has been kidnapped!"
After hearing these words, Xiaolan said very angrily:
"He must be worried about Miss Yuri's safety as much as he worries about his own daughter!"
"Humph! So who knows? ”
Miki Noguchi said coldly, "In case Miss Sonoko doesn't come back alive, can you still talk like this?" ”
"Huh?"
After hearing this, Xiaolan was speechless.
"Well, what Miss Miki said is possible."
Xiao Gorou hugged his hands in front of the murderer and said, "If it were me, if Xiaolan had anything, I would never let go of anything related to it!" ”
"Daddy!"
Hearing Kogoro say this, Xiaolan blinked, and tears were about to fall.
In this regard, looking at Conan, who had a strange atmosphere in the room at the moment, he couldn't help but feel speechless, and at the same time very angry - this young lady would say such a thing at such a time, it is really not educated at all! She couldn't tell the priorities of things!
Thinking like this, Conan was suddenly a little surprised, and found that Gao Yuan was facing away from everyone at this time, covering his mouth with one hand, and his shoulders were shaking, as if he was trying his best to hide his emotions-
Mr. Wise...... He's laughing?
And the gray plain mourning standing beside him, also with his back to everyone, was pulling the corner of his clothes, and whispered:
"Hey! You should pay attention! ”
Looking at this scene, Conan felt dazed, so he quietly leaned over and asked in a low voice:
"Hey! What have you discovered, Mr. Wise? ”
In this regard, Gao Yuan seemed to have soothed his emotions, let out a short sigh, and did not explain directly to Conan, but turned around and said to everyone:
"Whether it's Miss Sonoko or Miss Yuri, I'll let them come back safe and sound."
"Brother Wise is right, please believe us police!"
Officer Twilight had a sincere expression on his face, expressing the determination of the police.
"Hmph, I want to trust you, but the current Japanese police are not as good as they used to be, okay?"
Miki Noguchi snorted with some disdain and said.
"Miki-san, you're really going too far! And at a time when the police are so desperately investigating! ”
Kamoshida couldn't help but criticize.
In this regard, Miki Noguchi turned her face away in a tantrum and ignored it at all. And the people around didn't know what to say for a while.
So, taking advantage of this opportunity, Gao Yuan explained to Conan in a low voice:
"Don't you think it's strange, Conan? Since Miss Sonoko has been deprived of her senses of sight, hearing, and smell, how did she know that Miss Yuri hadn't woken up because of sleeping pills? Moreover, this Miss Miki, after the kidnappers called, her attitude changed a little too much. ”
Hearing this, although Conan was also a little puzzled, he still didn't quite understand why Gao Yuan was laughing just now.
However, now Sonoko Suzuki and Yuri Noguchi are still in the hands of the kidnappers, and the most important thing is to rescue them from the kidnappers at the moment.
At this time, Xiaolan's mobile phone rang......
