Chapter 51 Zero-dollar purchase
When Narumi Kiyotaka returned to the office, it was already completely dark, and he found that Conan had not come back yet, and with the last experience, Narumi Kiyotaka skillfully called Ayumi and the others' homes, and sure enough, the three little ones did not go back. I questioned Officer Twilight again, but I didn't receive a report from Conan today.
"Are you still in the department store?" Narumi Kiyotaka took out a yellow page with the phone numbers of all local businesses, quickly found the department store number, and dialed it directly.
"Hello, this is the Marudan Department Store, and today's business is completely over...... Closes at 6 p.m., and tomorrow will be the same as usual, opening at 10 a.m......." A woman's voice came from the other end of the phone, apparently just a recording.
The door closed at six o'clock, why hasn't Conan come back yet? Close the door? Wait, Narumi Kiyotaka suddenly remembered a news I read this morning, a bandit group has recently appeared in Tokyo, often waiting for department stores to close and sneak in, looting jewelry and electronics.
The department store has long been closed, Conan and the others have not returned, and there have been robbers recently, according to Kexue's law, the answer is simply about to come out!
At the moment, it is only speculation, and it is impossible to call the police, just in case, Narumi Kiyotaka decided to go over and take a look. Soon, Narumi Kiyotaka came to the vicinity of the department store, and the door was closed. I turned left and right and found that the other entrances were also closed.
This kind of large department store, it stands to reason that even if it is closed, there should be someone on duty to patrol at night, but no one was found, which is obviously abnormal.
When Narumi Kiyotaka was thinking about how to investigate next, the lights in the department store suddenly turned on, and not only that, Narumi Kiyotaka also found an SOS logo on the window of a certain floor. There was no sign when I came during the day, apparently it was left not long ago, and someone was trapped inside, trying to call for help!
Now that the evidence is available, Narumi Qinglong found a public phone booth nearby and called the police directly.
"Brother Narumi, is there anything else? Conan, I've sent someone out to look for it, and I'll let you know if there's a meeting going on here. Officer Twilight's voice was a little tired.
"I have clues about a suspected department store bandit syndicate here." Narumi Kiyotaka said directly.
"Really?" Officer Twilight suddenly came to his senses, and they had a meeting tonight for this case.
Narumi Kiyotaka carefully recounted what he had just discovered, and attached his own reasoning, if it was just an ordinary person, Officer Twilight might not believe it, but Narumi Kiyotaka had never made a mistake so far, and Officer Twilight was simply convinced, "I'll bring someone over immediately!" ”
In less than ten minutes, several police cars drove over, and the person leading the team was none other than Officer Twilight, who brought almost all the personnel who searched the three departments, and Sato was among them. Looking at the brightly lit department store in front of him, there is no need for Narumi Qinglong to say more, everyone feels that there is a problem.
"Officer Twilight, I contacted the president of this department store just now, and he can't contact the staff on duty inside." A man in a designer suit stepped forward.
"It seems that we can only send someone to infiltrate to confirm the situation inside." Officer Twilight said.
"The entire security system should have been controlled by the bandit group, so be careful to monitor it inside." Narumi Kiyotaka Road.
Officer Twilight nodded, and began to arrange the staff.
The man in the suit looked at Narumi Kiyotaka with a slight scrutiny, "You are Detective Narumi?" I have admired the daimyo for a long time. Thank you for calling the police, just leave it to our police and you can leave. ”
Talking about the name of Jiu Yang, but the tone was faintly hostile, Narumi Kiyotaka estimated that it was someone who pulled the hatred for himself, and sure enough, Sato came over and introduced: "His name is Shiratori Ren Saburo, he is the young master of the Shiratori Group, and he may speak a little like that, you don't have to take it too seriously." ”
Shiratori Renzaburo, the supreme head of Miwako Sato's defense line, has long regarded Narumi Kiyotaka as the number one enemy. As far as Narumi Kiyotaka knows, this guy actually mistook Sato for his first love. Seeing that his attitude was so bad, Narumi Qinglong naturally didn't bother to remind him, and it would be good if he didn't increase the difficulty.
Narumi Kiyotaka said: "Although I also want to leave directly, Conan is inside, and I saw him upstairs just now." ”
Sato frowned slightly, "How could Conan be inside?" ”
Narumi Kiyotaka said: "Not only Conan, but also Ayumi, Motota and Mitsuhiko, they watched the Kamen Superman show here during the day, there may be some reason, and they didn't have time to leave in the end." The distress sign on the window should have been painted by them. The reason why the lights inside are turned on is probably because several of them have been discovered by robbers and are searching everywhere. ”
Hearing that there are so many children, everyone's faces are a little embarrassed, in their opinion, how are several children the opponents of robbers, and now eighty percent have been arrested, lucky to be alive, bad luck......
At the same time, in the department store, Conan and others were playing peek-a-boo with several robbers, they had already used traps to catch two robbers, but they didn't expect that there were two more, Motota and Mitsuhiko were unfortunately caught, Conan used a voice changer and a dummy model to scare him by pretending to be a policeman, and the two took the opportunity to escape.
"Run, this way! This way! Conan beckoned to the three little ones, ran up the stairs, turned around the stairs, found the escalator on the other side, and began to go down the stairs again.
ran several floors in a row, and several people were already out of breath, especially Yuantai, who collapsed directly to the ground.
"Stand up, Motota, do you want to be caught by them?" Conan urged.
"Got it!" Yuan Tai tried hard to stand up, and several people continued to run down, just halfway through the run, the robbers above had already chased down, not only that, the escalator suddenly started, Conan and the others kept running down, and the elevator kept moving up, and they couldn't get down at all for a while. To make matters worse, two other robbers went around the bottom, two on top and two on each side, just enough to block Conan and the others in the middle of the elevator.
Conan's brain teaser was about to be helpless, and suddenly a familiar woman's voice came from below, "Police, everyone is not allowed to move, raise your hands!" ”
Sato just rushed up and pointed his gun at the two robbers below.
"Damn, who called the police!" The two robbers above saw that the situation was not good, and they immediately wanted to flee, but several more policemen rushed out, and the four robbers had no weapons in their hands, and in the face of a group of policemen with real guns, they decisively gave up resistance and raised their hands to surrender!
"Are you all alright?" Sato asked with concern.
Except for the tiredness of running, the four of them were not injured much, and they all said that they were fine.
Conanqi said, "How did you get the news?" ”
They wanted to call the police before, but all the phone lines inside were cut, and the police were able to arrive in time, which was really unexpected!
Sato said: "It's Narumi that guy, seeing that you didn't go back so late, he came out to look for you, noticed the situation here, and called the police directly!" ”
Conan was stunned, and at the same time, there was a warmth in his heart, and he didn't expect that guy to care about himself.
