Chapter 179: The Disappearing Cash Truck

"Neurotic!?"

Seeing the news from Gray Plains, Conan was obviously stunned for a moment.

He was obviously kind enough to inform him, why was he scolded again?

"It's really kind to be a donkey's liver and lungs......"

Conan shook his head and didn't text back to argue.

The current situation is critical, and it is obviously not the time to explain in detail, so he must find a way to help the police lock the location of the cash truck first, so that the cash inside can be transferred to other places.

Running downstairs, Conan immediately put the skateboard in his hand on the ground and kicked wildly in the direction of the cash truck's departure.

I have to say that his motor nerves and physical fitness are very good, but ...... It's just a regular skateboard, after all!

The cash cart soon disappeared from Conan's view.

"Damn it!"

Conan was dressed in rough clothes and angrily punched the telephone pole on the side of the road, and the telephone pole did not move, and his fist was red and swollen......

By the time Conan reluctantly returned to the Mitsubishi Bank Rice Flower Branch, the Metropolitan Police Department officers had already arrived at the scene.

The police force in Rice Flower Town has always been insufficient, and the loss of one billion yen is really not a small eucalyptus, so the people sent by the Metropolitan Police Department ...... It's still twilight thirteen.

Outside the bank, the head of the branch, Jiro Horio, was bowing his head and sweating profusely as he recounted what had happened.

After listening to Horio Jiro's words, Twilight Thirteen immediately frowned.

"Yuki-cho Horio, you said you don't know what just happened? The two security guards sent by the head office were found in the vault of your bank! ”

Horio didn't speak, just bowed his head deeply.

Twilight Thirteen could only continue, "So, who has the keys and passwords to the bank vaults?" ”

"There's me, and ......" Jiro Horio gritted his teeth and said the name that should have been kept secret for a while longer, "and Miss Masami Hirota!" ”

"Masami Hirota? Takagi, start investigating now! ”

"Yes!"

The news that the Mitsubishi Bank Rice Flower Branch had lost one billion yen quickly spread and reached the ears of the head office.

Mitsuhiro Nakamura, who had just hung up the phone, was all over the place, and his mouth was still muttering, "Horio, this waste...... Horio this waste ......"

Until he received an accountability call from the board of directors, Mitsuhiro Nakamura still didn't figure out how the police knew about this when the bank didn't report to the police.

Who is such a dog to meddle with a mouse and help the bank call the police!?

"No, I have to stay calm!"

Mitsuhiro Nakamura controlled his trembling hands and slowly sat down on the leather sofa in his office.

"The most important thing now is whether or not to tell the lord about this...... No, you can't do that! ”

As soon as Mu Yuan's eyes appeared in his mind, Mitsuhiro Nakamura immediately sat up straight.

Compared to being investigated by the police, compared to being accused of dereliction of duty by the board of directors, the owner of those eyes was much more terrifying, and he didn't dare to ask Mu Yuan's opinion at all.

After all, the idea of replacing fake banknotes with real banknotes was his initiative to curry favor with Mu Yuan!

At first, Mu Yuan just told him that it would be good for him to call the police at the right time after the cash truck was hijacked, so that Masami Hirota and her companion would be wanted by the police.

It was he who took the initiative to use real money to strengthen the police's pursuit in order to ensure the authenticity of the identity of the wanted criminal!

As for the praise of the billions of genuine bills that have not been lost under his 'meticulous' security measures...... It's really tempting, but the main reason why he did it was to curry favor with the terrible lord of Erquan Temple!

In case he goes to Mu Yuan now, Mu Yuan will also enter the police's field of vision, or even be investigated......

"Then it's better to lose this billion directly!"

Weighing the weight, Mitsuhiro Nakamura immediately took out his mobile phone and began to rummage through the address book, and soon found the phone number of Jiro Horio's wife.

Now, he had to contact his subordinate in a less obtrusive way to make sure he could delay the police investigation and give Masami Hirota and her companions plenty of time to escape.

As for when the billion yen will come back, or if it will come back...... It's just a matter of fate.

"Moximoxi, Mrs. Horio......"

While the two presidents of the Bank of Tsutsubishi were worried about their positions, Conan had already managed to infiltrate the police investigation team.

It's just that I don't know if it's because I got up too early today, Xiaolan's wake-up gas seems to be a little heavy.

"Little, Sister Xiaolan, I said it all, I'm here for the new brother......"

"Is that why you left your dad and ran away on your own?"

"......" Conan touched the swollen bag on the top of his head, hesitated for a moment, and still asked, "Sister Xiaolan, aren't you curious, where did Brother Shinichi run away during this time?" ”

"Huh...... His kind of reasoning maniac, he goes wherever he likes! ”

Winter!!!

Conan, with a steaming second-order pagoda swollen bag on his head, finally quieted down.

But soon, his attention was drawn to the manhunt plan laid out by the police.

"According to the average speed of the cash transport vehicle in the urban area, the distance it has driven so far is estimated, and then the regional blockade is used to set up a card to intercept...... Decent method, but there are no flaws, such a large cash truck, should be discovered soon, right? ”

Conan touched his chin, a glimmer of anticipation flashing in his eyes.

That mysterious black-clothed organization is finally about to be caught by him!

While Conan and the police were in high spirits to track down the whereabouts of the billion-yen bill, the guests at Ersenji Temple had already soaked in the morning hot springs and returned to the restaurant where they lived.

Two huge casseroles had been placed on the long table, and the smell of the heat from Gududu was coming from the smell.

Mu Yuan and Curacao were still busy in the kitchen, and the three little guys in yukata quickly lost their patience and moved the bench to entangle themselves.

"Hey, Brother Muyuan, what are you doing here?" Ayumi said curiously.

Mu Yuan smiled and didn't speak, the cold light in his hand flew, and a lovely fragrant Gu immediately appeared on the beautiful knife flowers.

"Okay, it's so good, I'm going to play too!" Motota's eyes widened in shock.

"Alright, you guys, the kitchen is a dangerous place." Curacao tightened the apron on his body, hurriedly hugged the three little ones off the stool, and comforted, "The host is handling the ingredients for everyone, you can't affect him!" ”

Under Curacao's gentle gaze, Ayumi and Mitsuhiko nodded obediently, but Motota was deflated, and a lot of dissatisfaction sounded in his stomach.

"Gollum - I'm so hungry, how long will it take to eat?"

"Yuantai, didn't you already eat a piece of chocolate just now?"

"But...... People are hungry again! ”

“……”

Seeing that Motota had made an awkward fuss in the kitchen, Curacao could only shake his head helplessly and took out the pork cutlet that was originally intended to wait for the guests to finish eating the crabs and then serve them from the oven.

One of them held a piece of golden and crispy tonkatsu, and the three little ones finally followed Curacao out of the kitchen with a satisfied face.

Mu Yuan silently took out a piece of fatty pork ribs from the refrigerator, washed them, wrapped them in spices, and put them in a low-temperature slow cooker.

It wasn't until he had adjusted the time and temperature on the slow cooker that he finally wiped his hands and said to the corner of the kitchen door:

"Mr. Yusaku, do you have anything to do with me?"

“…… I can't hide it from you. Dressed up by his wife as an ordinary middle-aged man again, the best-selling reasoner slowly walked into the kitchen and said with a smile, "Mu Yuanjun, I can take the liberty of asking the guests who came to Erquan Temple today...... What does it have to do with you? ”

"Don't you know about their relationship with me?" Mu Yuan tilted his head and looked at Yusaku Kudo with a strange expression.

Kudo Yusaku stepped forward and picked up a Xianggu that had been changed by Mu Yuan, "I naturally know the relationship between them and Mu Yuan, but what I asked was...... They preside over the place in your heart. ”

Mu Yuan blinked his eyes and said calmly, "They are all my friends. ”

"Friend......" Kudo Yusaku frowned, "So, the dog is not a friend of Muyuan?" ”

Mu Yuan was slightly stunned, and then he understood what Kudo Yusaku wanted to ask, "Mr. Yusaku, you misunderstood, I invited Conan-kun, but I don't know what the reason is, he and Xiaolan didn't appear." ”

"Huh!? Didn't Shinichi become a child, and he could still go on a date with Xiaolan? Yukiko Kudo jumped out with her hands in her hands.

“…… Yukiko," Yusaku Kudo smiled wryly, "I think Shinichi must have met some important eucalyptus before he gave up this opportunity to get close to Makito's host." ”

“…… Mr. Yusaku, I know your son well. Mu Yuan shook his head, and poured the marinated beef slices into the pot with his backhand.

Thorn la la...... The smoke of the onion rose up.

Kudo Yusaku took a step back and squinted, "In this way, Host Muyuan already knows what the eucalyptus that entangles Shinichi is?" ”

"Is Mr. Yusaku leaving early?" Mu Yuan raised his head, his calm gaze through the smoke.

Kudo Yusaku paused, and after a while, he suddenly shook his head with a smile, "It seems that that Shinichi kid is destined to hit a wall, so I'd better stay and taste the cooking skills hosted by Mu Yuan with peace of mind." ”

"Yusaku......" Yukiko Kudo tugged at her husband's sleeve.

"Don't worry, with Kiko, Shinichi will be fine, it's just ......" Yusaku Kudo patted his wife's hand, "Host Muyuan, you help so many different people keep different secrets...... Aren't you tired? ”

"Mr. Yusaku's 'tired'...... What does it feel like? ”

"I'm sorry, I was rude."

"How could it not have been found!?"

Conan stepped on a barstool and patted the map on the table in disbelief.

"How could such an obvious cash truck just disappear out of thin air, do you think it's a magician who is driving!?"

Let's try it soon, everyone. 】

Faced with the accusations of a seven-year-old child, the two young detectives who came to report lowered their heads in shame.

Twilight Thirteen on the side had a calm face, and he had even lost the interest in scolding Conan for making trouble.

The entire Metropolitan Police Department, all the idle police forces were dispatched, and they searched together for more than an hour, but they didn't even find the shadow of a cash truck!

The cash truck, loaded with a billion yen in cash and armor as heavy as a tank, just disappeared out of thin air?

How is this possible!?

"Masami Hirota, how is the investigation on her side?"

Conan's voice drew Twilight Thirteen's attention once more.

Twilight Thirteen nodded at the two officers, signaling that they could report.

Unexpectedly, after the two glanced at each other, they seemed to become more embarrassed.

"What the hell is going on?" Twilight Thirteen frowned, "Say it!" ”

"Uh...... Here's the thing, the name of the Twilight Police Department, Masami Hirota...... It seems to be a pseudonym. ”

"What!?" Twilight Thirteen was stunned.

The young police officer shrank his head and said with difficulty: "We have obtained the information of the Ministry of Household Registration, and we have also compared the photos of the Ministry of Transportation, and found a total of thirteen ladies whose age is similar to that of the target person, named Masami Hirota, but...... Among them, there is no such lady as President Horio said. ”

"What are you kidding!?" Twilight Thirteen's eyes widened, and a pair of tiger eyes stared straight at Horio Jiro, "Horio Yuki, can you please explain what this is all about?" Why would your bank easily hire such an unknown person and put her in such an important position as a treasury administrator!? ”

"Hiroshi, Miss Hirota's identity information is fake?" Horio Jiro, who was suddenly called by his name, was also stunned, and the cold sweat of Douda couldn't stop breaking out from his forehead.

He didn't know that Masami Hirota's identity information was fake!

How good is this, do you want to call Mitsuhiro Nakamura?

This idiot boss won't be deceived, and even take him to the pit, right!?

Horio only felt that his brain had never turned so fast.

"I'm very sorry, but I haven't had time to check the employee's identity again because the former branch manager died unexpectedly from a heart disease."

In a hurry, he really found a usable excuse.

But this kind of crude excuse obviously can't fool Conan, who is eyeing him fiercely.

"Don't talk nonsense there, behind this bank robbery, there are also the top executives of your bank involved!?"

"What...... You, you little, don't think you can talk nonsense at a young age! ”

Horio Jiro glared at Conan with a fierce look, and Conan stepped on the table without flinching, but before he could open his mouth to ask, he was picked up by Twilight Thirteen.

"Okay, Conan, I can understand your feelings, but please don't interfere with the normal work of our police!" With that, Twilight Thirteen took Conan out of the office.

But just when everyone thought that Twilight Thirteen was trying to drive Conan away, he suddenly paused in the corner of the wall and said to Conan mysteriously:

"Hey, Conan, the person who has been helping you behind your back is Shinichi, right?"

"Huh?"

"Okay, don't make a fuss, it's just the uncle's fault, but can you help the uncle ask the new brother, where is the cash truck hidden? It's impossible for it to really disappear into thin air, right? ”

"It can't disappear into thin air...... I know! Ah no, I mean Shinichi brother he knows! ”
