126 Case9.Outside the Realm (19)
In just a few hours, the video of Spider Yao has already sparked a wave of discussion. He was naturally very satisfied with the results brought by this kind of spread, but it was not him who really detonated the hot spot, but the household name he provoked, the thief Kidd.
Now, not only Jiroyoshi Suzuki, but also from afar...... I don't know out of which "illusionist" also challenged Kidd.
The only question is, will Kidd the Monster Thief respond to this?
- 6 p.m., Tokyo Tower Special Observatory.
It's been more than ten hours since the video was released, but the Kidding Kid Kid has yet to arrive. Under these circumstances, the Tokyo Tower Art Exhibition opened as scheduled.
Tokyo Tower is modeled after the Eiffel Tower in Paris, France, and is painted in red and white, with an observation deck at 120 meters and 250 meters respectively. The main body of this art exhibition is located on the slightly lower Yao Da Observatory, and the upper and lower two layers of Yao square space are separated by baffles into a zigzag labyrinth.
Entering through the elevator exit, visitors will return to the elevator at the other end of the wall after walking the winding route, and take it directly to the special observation deck on the top floor.
The grand finale of this exhibition, the Blue Heart, is displayed separately from the other exhibits and placed in the center of the special observation deck on the upper floor.
This is a small space of 20 meters square, with floor-to-ceiling windows on all sides sloping outward, so that visitors can look at the city scenery in the distance. The location of the glass cabinet for storing the gemstones has also been specially selected, and the light of the sky is refracted so that the first rays of moonlight can shine on the velvet cloth of the display table.
This is also the idea of Jiro Yoshiba Suzuki: so that every tourist can clearly and thoroughly appreciate the mysterious red light of the gemstone.
"βBut, how is it possible that there is no police presence around the jewels?" Nakamori asked incredulously, "This is an important part of the security plan!" β
In the early summer season, six o'clock in the evening is far from the time when the sky is just dark, and the second search section has already taken action to guard against the haunting thief in white.
Coming to the last part of the exhibition, visitors will naturally not ignore the presence of the black-faced police officers on the four corners of the special observation deck. This is the second section of the search to garrison the Yao police, but about whether there is a need to place manpower around the jewel showcase, Suzuki Jiroyoshi and Nakamori Ginzo have different opinions.
"Isn't that enough for the police to be guarded at all four corners?" The gray-bearded old man argued, "If tourists can't avoid the deterrence of the police, and can only glimpse the luster of gemstones from the cracks in their bodies, what is the significance of this exhibition?" β
Nakamori Ginzo didn't want to talk to him about the meaning, he just wanted to make sure that this time the gem wouldn't be taken away by the monster thief Kidd again.
Suzuki Jiroyoshi said, "I didn't want to catch that thief, as long as I could stop him from stealing the gem, I would be the headline of tomorrow!" β
Hitting the headlines, Yao is indeed the only pursuit of this rich and idle Suzuki Group consultant.
Nakamori Ginzo sighed with a headache.
This little Yao dispute, in the end, still gave in to the new police officer, because Suzuki Jiroyoshi asked suspiciously: "Could it be that there are no police around Baobaoyao, so you didn't do it...
Did the law stop Kidd the Monster Thief? β
"How is that possible!" Ginzo Nakamori immediately retorted.
In his plan, guarding the gems is not so indispensable. Kidd the Monster Thief always has all sorts of tricks to bluff people, so this time, Ginzo Nakamori decided to guard the elevator and staircase, the only way up and down Tokyo Tower.
At the same time, it also made Suzuki Jiroji ignore the scene outside the window.
The wings of the police helicopter will disrupt the air flow to the greatest extent, and as long as the glider does not take off properly, he can only get to the special lookout like a normal tourist.
The Nakamori Silver Sanyao Heaven and Earth Net is installed near the entrance and exit of the elevator and staircase.
Suzuki Jiroyoshi said, "Then what are you still sending people to guard around the gem?" β
Ginzo Nakamori: "......"
With a toothache, he said to the officers around the jewel, "Come back." β
The minutes ticked by, and at seven o'clock in the evening, the edges of the clouds in the sky were already dyed with a beautiful fiery orange.
The last rays of light were about to enter the surface, but Kidd the Strange Thief was still nowhere to be seen. Even Nakamori Ginzo couldn't help muttering in his heart: This thief can't really have an accident, right?
At this moment, the police officer on the side suddenly said: "Zhongsen police, what are you sticking to under your feet?" β
What!
Nakamori Ginzo immediately tiptoed, but his heel brought up a thin square card from the ground!
Jiroyoshi Suzuki bent down and tore it from his leather shoes and read it aloud word by word:
[Tonight at 0:00, I will pay homage to the Blue Heart here.]
βMonster Thief KID]
"This damn thief!" Nakamori Yinsanyao was so angry that he almost took off on the spot, "He had already prepared a warning letter, but he just deliberately stuck it to the sole of his shoe to delay our discovery of Yao!" All staff, improveβ"
"Not necessarily."
A gentle male voice on the side interrupted Nakamori Ginzo's order to exit Yao, and he said, "I think that the strange thief Kidd just made up his mind Yao." β
Not far from the window of the special observation deck, a figure gradually came. The most intuitive symbol of Yao's status is to wear the police rank on his left chest, a metal five-petal cherry blossom, with gold liners underneath, and three vertical bars evenly distributed on both sides.
Among all the police officers present, only Nakamori Ginsanyao had the highest position, but the rank of the police officer who came was the same as him.
Without waiting for Nakamori Ginzo to speak, Suzuki Jiroyoshi suddenly realized: "It's you!" Are you the ...... Give me the gem, who's going to do that? β
"A search lesson, Yu Karazawa." The visitor smiled.
Tang Zeyu stood in front of the two of them, the shadow of the face was illuminated by the glow, and the warm orange light outlined the curvature of the warm and moist Yao at the corner of the mouth. He did not wear a black Tactical Vest to show his status, and simply pinned a badge on the left chest of his shirt.
Coming closer, Jiroji Suzuki looked at the monster thief Kid Yao in confusion: "Why do you say that?" β
Tang Zeyu said: "Because there is something strange about the ground here. β
"I just found out," he said, handing over the card in his hand, "β look." β
Jiroyoshi Suzuki raised his hand to take it. This is exactly the same as the teaser letter in his hand, the only &...
#30340; The difference is that the time above is 8 o'clock tomorrow night.
"Nakamori Police, there are also here!"
After some searching, a total of four cards were found, because the color of the back was the same as the floor tiles, and it had been sticking to the ground unconsciously, avoiding everyone's attention.
The font and typography of the four cards have not changed, only the preview time, which is "0:00 tonight", "8 o'clock tomorrow night", "the day after tomorrow" and "forget it this time".
"It doesn't matter if it's time," Ginzo Nakamori pinched the last card with two fingers in disgust, "'Forget it this time'...... What the hell is this? β
"It seems that the strange thief Kidd has written different times on the card in advance, and then, you just need to find a way to make Nakamori police watch you step on the one you need to be on." Karasawa said.
Nakamori Ginzo's heart suddenly became angry: "So the strange thief Kidd has been nearby!" β
Since this is the case, just a few people who are sitting still because he has not appeared for a long time are not in the eyes of this hateful thief?
He was about to wave his hand and order everyone to pull their faces, but Tang Zeyu finished speaking slowly:
ββ¦β¦ Moreover, I just got off the elevator, I'm afraid this strange thief has already escaped. β
The red number on the display screen happened to just jump to "1", and Tang Zeyu spread his hands helplessly.
*
Nakamori Ginsanyao has countless whims to contain the strange thief Kidd's plan, but in the end it still ended in failure.
As Tang Zeyu said, the thief who sent the notice letter found that the situation was not right, and he had already escaped by elevator.
Everyone present pinched their faces in turn and checked them, and everyone had a red mark on their faces.
"Speaking of Karasawa Police, why are you here?"
Nakamori Ginzo rubbed his hair and turned around to ask, Tang Zeyu smiled gently: "This time it also involves major public safety issues, and I am the dispatcher of the search for a class." β
- This morning, Matsumoto Kiyonaga's office.
After pointing out the suspicion of Spider Yao's crime, Scarface finally looked down and finished reading the operation application. The above is Yu Tangzawa's consistent style of writing reports, concise and concise, without half a sentence of nonsense.
Tang Zeyu waited patiently behind the desk, and after a while, the stack of white A4 paper was gently put down.
Matsumoto Kiyoshi summed up meaningfully, "Yao is indeed a proposal worthy of attention,"
"But, Karasawa Police, you have to understand one thing," he said, "sometimes, more people don't mean safety. β
He was vaguely expressing his concern.
The area of the special observatory is not large, and on the night of the Tokyo Tower Art Exhibition, it coincided with the announcement of the strange thief Kiddyao, and the flow of people must be shoulder to shoulder.
At this time, too much police arrangement may be counterproductive.
Only the appropriate control of the number of people is a reasonable choice, but who can predict how many police officers are needed to control the order of the scene as quickly as possible?
What's more, their opponent is still the best at disguise and monster thief Kidd, and the increase in manpower also increases the risk of monster thief Kidd blending into Yao.
"I've also thought about what you said." Tang Zeyu said, "Safety problems can only be prevented, not eliminated from the root, and the focus of our work is to ensure that the people can be evacuated as soon as possible." Search Lesson 1 Reinforcements will be disrupted and divided into Search Lesson 2į...
40; When the formation is safe, it will be uniformly dispatched by the Zhongsen Police. β
"βI also hope that the search lesson preferably doesn't have to work." Hiroshi Karasawa ended his memories and said to Ginzo Nakamori and Jiro Suzuki in front of him.
"Anyway, the time of the notice letter is 0:00 tonight. At Mr. Suzuki's request, the special observatory will continue to be open to the public, and the task of confirming the identity of the police officer will be completed by the deputy, and the task will be reported to me step by step. β
As the sun sets, the last of the orange rays shine on the black metal shells of the helicopters, which are suspended in the air outside Tokyo Tower, like whales swimming in an ocean of orange.
Yuyao Karasawa looked at him, and then tilted his head slightly and fell there.
"I'll be on the helicopter and monitor the situation all the time."
*
At the same time, the Maori Detective Agency.
As soon as school ended, Conan put down his schoolbag and ran out, and Mori Kogoro couldn't stop him when he put down the newspaper. The bearded detective muttered and retracted his body: "...... What a pity, this kid. β
"Dad, what's wrong? Conan can eat when he returns. β
Maori Lan came out of the kitchen with the dishes, and Maori Kogoro turned the page of the newspaper unhappily: "Don't wait for him, let's start first." - The boy doesn't know where he's gone. β
On the sidewalk downstairs, the skateboard set off a wave of white pavement.
Conan urgently called up the map on his glasses, and turned sideways to avoid an aunt carrying a cabbage at a tricky angle.
- He thought of it!
After returning from the hospital, the case of Ikuo Shirota still lingers in front of his eyes. When asked about the kidnapped president Yao, the road had been blocked, and the public security guarded the door of the ward, brushing Tang Zeyu's own face without any use.
Conan's only reference is that the kidnapper was found hanging Yao's body last night, and before the police officer arrived, he observed Yao's memory at the scene.
Conan pondered for a day until a chat with the Young Detective Team inspired him.
Yuan Tai said: "The elevator stopped, I really can't walk!" β
"The elevator maintenance is very slow, in order not to have an accident, it usually takes a day or two, Yuan Tai, you can walk for a while." On the side, Mitsuhiko comforted.
The voice slashed through his mind like a thunderbolt, and Conan realized it as if he had woken up from a dream.
That's right.
ββWhen did the elevator of Mihuata Building be affixed with the seal of "under maintenance"?
As soon as I entered the stairwell of the building, I saw that the elevator was being repaired, because I was anxious to save people, I didn't verify it again, but hurriedly ran up the stairs to the 36th floor.
You can leave the ambulance, and you can use a stretcher to transport Yuo Yaodai.
How is it possible for first responders to climb the 36th floor on a stretcher?
In other words, if there is no elevator, how can the on-site personnel arrive at Yao so quickly!
When Conan arrived, the elevator was still in the so-called maintenance state, and the ambulance returned to normal operation as soon as it arrived. The only explanation is that the elevator has never been overhauled, as long as the black display screen is coated with black-out carbon ink, firmly covering the red numbers on the display floor, and then affixing a seal on it, Conan will be blinded.
Take the elevator upstairs and take the stairs upstairs at least 10 minutes apart.
Someone is deliberately stalling for time!
...
"Uncle security, my mother wants to ask, when will the elevator maintenance end? She wanted to go downstairs early to buy groceries. β
At the Yao Security Office of the Mihuata Building, Conan looked up and asked Uncle Yao inside, but the security guard was very surprised when he drank tea and read the newspaper: "Why not?" It's okay now, and the elevator hasn't been overhauled at all in recent times. β
"Is it a real baby, can you do it now?" An inch of cold light slipped over Conan Yao's lenses, "It won't be repaired for a while?" β
"I'll take a look...... "The uncle flipped through the records, and after a few moments, his voice came from inside. The last time was three months ago, so why wait another three months for the next repair. β
The security guard also regarded Conan as a news reporter hired to inquire about the news, and before the words fell, he immediately shook his hands and added: "Little brother, don't get me wrong, our Yao maintenance procedures are very strict, and there are no potential safety hazards...... Hey? β
Before he finished speaking, there was no one outside the window.
Conan ran into the elevator with a skateboard in his hand.
Sure enough, he was tricked.
His own investigation ideas have always been limited to the scene of the crime, and he actually ignored such an obvious loophole!
The elevator was returning from the upper floors to the first floor, and while waiting for Yao, Conan looked carefully at the elevator doors on both sides. There used to be a seal firmly attached to it, but now it is long gone, and there is not a trace of the smooth metal surface, and the cleaner has wiped it clean, and there is no trace of glue.
The reflective metal surface reflects Conan's face gritted and frustrated.
He was too slow to react after all, and all traces of the leaves had been cleaned up.
On the 36th floor of the Mihuata Building, it was found that there was a seal attached to the outside of the venue, and Conan was stopped outside. He circled in the corridors and elevators, his mind racing in thought:
Who found out he was coming?
Whoever it is, this person must have already discovered his own actions, but there is a paradox in this, Conan found this place by chance and on a whim, and it is impossible for the people to prepare in advance with a seal.
In other words, it was not himself who was closely monitored by him, but everyone who haunted Yao around the Mihuata Building. Because Ikuo Shirota is imprisoned here, he will ......
Wait, it's still not right.
If it was this mastermind behind the creation of the 36-story Yao crime scene, then why didn't he hide the kidnapper's hanging body? You know, ten minutes of delay is enough to do a lot of things, and he's been here for an unknown number of days.
This person has a need for strict monitoring, but he has not moved the scene of the crime...... Or rather, he's monitoring that Yao isn't on the 36th floor.
Looking at the entire Mihuata Building, where else is it worth moving the people like this?
Conan Yao's thinking froze, and the second he was in trouble, the fire elevator hanging down from the balcony suddenly appeared in front of him.
The left and right sides of the 36th floor, and even the 37th floor of the upstairs are normal residents...... And what about below?
I entered the 36th floor from the 37th floor, but the same goes for the 35th floor!
Unconsciously, Conan's forehead was already covered with fine beads of sweat, and he knocked on the door of the 37th floor again.
Finding that Tian Yuxiong Yao β‘β‘ the scene, this elementary school student Yao was calm and rational and left a deep impression on the owner of the house, she bent down and asked in a low voice: "...... Still...
Any questions? β
"Yes, I still need to borrow the fire ladder here."
Conan hurriedly took off his shoes in the hallway, ran to the balcony, and pulled open the cover of the fire ladder on the ground.
He turned to the owner of the house and said, "If there is no reply within ten minutes, please call the police immediately." β
The housekeeper's eyes widened in surprise, he covered his mouth with his hands and nodded.
Conan lowered the fire elevator and descended from the 37th to the 36th floor. Sure enough, there was no one guarding inside, and the police left after sticking the seal, and found that Tian Yuxiong was circled with a white pen on the side of the balcony.
A day ago, Conan had racked his brains to get in and check, but now he had completely calmed down.
If you want to find out if Yao Mu is not here, no matter how many times you investigate, you will only come to the conclusion that "the kidnappers hanged themselves by themselves".
Conan pulls open the lid for the second time, and this time he enters the 35th floor.
As soon as he landed, Conan immediately covered his mouth and nose to prevent the sound of his breathing from alarming anything. It is the same as the upper floor, only after a simple decoration, the lonely moonlight shines through the glass windows, and there are some wooden planks scattered on the cement floor.
Conan's sneakers had been taken off in the hallway before entering, and the white socks were on the ground, clearly imprinting a thin layer of dust.
Soon, Conan found out that his beware was in vain, and the 35th floor was already empty. But there are still traces of human life everywhere, and there is a bag of Kaifeng black tea in the kitchen cupboard, which has not yet deteriorated.
The concrete floor was uneven, and Conan found a little biscuit crumbs scattered around the wall. In the crack of the wall on the side, the black insect probe probes probes and stretches out their tentacles.
β¦β¦ The people who hid here have long since left, but the longest time to leave the leaves will not be more than a day, and if it is a little later, these detriments will be emptied by the ants.
Conan slowly raised his head and unscrewed the flashlight on his watch.
It was already completely dark.
If you talk in the daytime, the diffuse reflection of the ubiquitous leaf will dull the human eye, making it difficult to find the traces left on the wall. The light source illuminated all the ups and downs very clearly, and all the shadows were also strengthened by the contrast between the night and the strong light, and the light gray shadow outlined a pattern.
Conan was naturally familiar with this. Whenever the snow-white figure flies under the full moon and the TV rolls over the trailer, it will be embellished on the back of each letter.
- It's the Kid Kid Bad's emblem.
*
At ten o'clock in the evening, the Metropolitan Police Department tarmac.
With two hours left before Kidd the Thief's prediction, the wings of the standby blade began to spin, and the air currents turned into a violent wind in the air, sweeping through the dead branches and leaves of the leaves, and whistling across the entire tarmac.
Helicopters have already taken off, and the ground is as bright as day with snow-white beams.
In the swaying light source, Tang Zeyu gathered his scarf and took three steps and two steps across the entire airport. Halfway through the journey, he stopped and met Ginzo Nakamori, who was about to board the plane.
"It's too rushedβ"
The take-off was too noisy, and the wind swept away all the sounds, so you could only pull your throat if you wanted the other party to hear it. Tang Zeyu didn't speak, the corners of his eyes were slightly curved, and he nodded sympathetically.
This is the first time since his promotion that he has confronted the strange thief Kidd, and his attitude is stern at the same time, and all the details are also chasing...
Seeking perfection, Nakamori Ginzo can't help but be a little in a hurry.
When he saw Tang Zeyu, he thought, "Are you ready for the command plane?" β
"Inside."
Nakamori looked in the direction he pointed out the Yao, the only corner of the tarmac that had no light leaves, the huge body of the leaves shrouded in deeper shadows, and only the occasional beam of light swept over the leaves illuminated its low-key silhouette.
For some reason, this helicopter gave Nakamori an instinctive sense of danger, like lurking in the dark, desperately waiting to hunt a ferocious beast.
β¦β¦ It's just a unified helicopter, how can there be such a sense of danger?
Nakamori Ginzo shook his head, and quickly put this inexplicable thought behind him.
He said to Tang Zeyu: "It's good to have you." β
This new management officer of the search class Yao Yao has a comprehensive personality, which not only inspired Nakamori Ginsanya's security ideas, but also noticed many details that he ignored. Otherwise, by this time, he would have been ten thousand times busier than if he were alone.
Nakamori Ginsanyao's words came from the heart, and when he heard this, Tang Zeyu smiled humbly: "I hope that my own layout doesn't need to come in handy." β
He nodded simply, and the two of them said goodbye, carrying the Nakamori Silver Miyo helicopter into the air, and the fan-shaped snow-white beam swayed and gradually flew away.
Tang Zeyu retracted his gaze and walked back into the darkness that belonged to him.
The co-pilot has a communication headset hanging on the back of the seat, which is connected to the police command band, and each action team is doing the final inspection. Tang Zeyu hung it in his right ear, and only listened to the voice of Nakamori Silver Sanyao and said:
"Security team?"
"Get in place!"
"Patrol Team 2?"
"In!"
ββ¦β¦β
Hiroshi Karasawa said: "The No. 2 command plane is in place. β
The voice of the report was still one after another, and he gently pressed the radio switch on his side.
Gin said, "It's too slow." β
He clasped his hands on his chest and sat on the side of the pilot, tapping his five fingers in a boring turn, and the black tactical vest was perfunctorily hung on his shoulder.
It's bulky and cumbersome, and it can't hold the vital points at all, but it has to be worn in order to blend in.
The white light came through the window, and it flashed to illuminate the sharp side jaw of the gin, and the corners of the mouth were already a little irritated by waiting, until Tang Zeyu boarded the helicopter, and the curvature eased slightly.
"I met someone halfway through and chatted a few words." Tang Zeyu buckled his seat belt with his backhand, "It's still early." β
The deep night is shrouded in the dark earth, far and high in the sky, and the moonlight is shining for thousands of miles. Moments later, the black helicopter took off into the air and merged into the group of flying planes circling in mid-air.
TBC.
