Conan’s Corpse Picker

Chapter 2808 2812 [Target] Asking for monthly votesヽ(〃〃)~

"Taku Itakura is actually related to the man in black who was killed in the bombing?" Conan thought to himself:

"Could this missing programmer really be targeted and kidnapped by the organization? - Indeed, with such a bad character, these companies can still remember him, insist on cooperating with him, and even hand over large sums of money before getting the finished product. Deposit, which shows that Itakura Taku must be very strong, which indeed meets the requirements of the organization.”

Next to him, Jiang Xia also remembered who the mushroom-headed client was referring to: "..." It was the unlucky colleague who was accidentally killed by a passerby murderer. Counting the time, Mr. Tequila might have been reincarnated by now.

Conan did not expect that a seemingly ordinary case would be suspected of involving a black organization. He looked at the mushroom-headed client and asked anxiously: "What did the man in black with a Kansai accent say in the office? What else did you say?" Remember?"

"This..." Mushroom Head tried hard to recall what happened two years ago, "I arrived at Itakura Taku's company and was about to enter when I saw that burly man walking out of the house - I was no longer tall. It was considered short, but that guy was actually two heads taller than me. At that time, I simply thought it was a giant.

"I was surprised when I heard him say something viciously to Itakura Taku in the room, saying 'you are no longer useful', and then the man with whom he was connected strode away."

Conan waited and found that there was nothing more to say, so he couldn't help but said: "What else?"

The mushroom head said doubtfully: "No, didn't I say, 'and then he left' - even if he left, I can't catch up again. That dangerous guy is attacking Itakura Takubo The harsh words are not meant for me, I don’t want to get into trouble for nothing.”

Conan: "..." Damn it, it seems that only Taku Itakura himself knows what the man in black said.

At this moment, the motivation to find Itakura Taku reached its peak.

Next to him, Jiang Xia seemed to be seriously solving the commission in front of him: "That tall man does sound suspicious, but since he is dead, the disappearance of Itakura Taku has nothing to do with him - let's put these aside first and start from the current situation. Let’s find the clues.”

He lowered his head and looked at the laptop on the table: "The location of Mr. Itakura should be hidden in this video."

The fashionable young man provided clues: "When Itakura Taku disappeared before, he always stayed in a hotel, and it should be the same now."

Mediterranean sighed, obviously he had already made efforts in this direction: "But in order to protect the privacy of customers, those hotels are not willing to help us check who is staying. Moreover, Itakura Taku is a habitual 'disappearance' criminal and is very cunning. He would probably make up a random pseudonym and register."

Jiang Xia shook his head: "As long as you use your skills well, it's not difficult to get clues from the hotel. And you see."

He reached out his hand, pressed the pause button, and zoomed in on the video in front of him.

The desk behind Itakura Taku appeared vaguely in front of everyone's eyes - a cursory glance revealed that there were Go, chess and shogi pieces on it.

"This..." The fashionable young man was very surprised, "He actually thought about making software for us. I thought he just wanted to make money and run away."

"..." Jiang Xia looked at this easy-to-deceive Party A, "That's not the point. The point is that Mr. Itakura is a frequent visitor to high-end hotels, and many similar hotels will provide some convenient services, such as lending entertainment facilities."

The three programmers were confused: "This... yes, but what's the problem with this?"

Jiang Xia clicked on her phone and quickly found a list of hotels.

Then he looked at the three clients, glanced at them, and pointed to Mediterranean, who seemed to have the most social experience: "This is the phone list of high-end hotels in Tokyo. Please follow the call and remember to say this when the time comes."

…

One minute later.

Mediterranean, who knew the lines by heart, picked up the phone and dialed the number nervously.

Although he was a little anxious in his heart, after being a member of society for so long, when he answered the phone at the front desk of the hotel, he managed to calm down his tone and asked angrily: "The rooms in your hotel are like this." quality?"

The person on the other side was confused: "I'm very sorry, who are you?"

Mediterranean: "I'm the one who borrowed Go, chess and shogi from you - the landline in the house just broke down, and I couldn't even dial the number to order food, so I could only call you on my mobile phone. Please think of something right now. Find a way!"

The person on the other side was even more confused: "Did you make a mistake? We did not prepare chess or shogi for our guests. Our hotel can only provide chess."

"Oh." Mediterranean nodded towards Jiang Xia, "I guess I made a typo, sorry."

With that said, he hung up the phone.

Jiang Xia handed over another number: "The next one."

Mediterranean: "..." Wait, who is the worker?

However, this young detective's voice is indeed nothing like Itakura Taku, so it would be a flaw for him to fight...

Thinking about the large deposit paid by his company, Mediterranean sighed and resignedly moved to the next hotel.

…

Finally, when I called the third hotel, I got a different response from the hotel.

"Are you Mr. Itakura from room 1714?" The front desk was deeply impressed by this otaku who borrowed three kinds of chess at the same time and ordered food every day. "But didn't you check out in anger because you met a kidnapper in the hotel a few days ago? Already?"

"Huh? Oh." Mediterranean said inertly, "Then I remembered the wrong number."

With that he hung up the phone.

After hanging up, he suddenly realized: "Wait, what kind of kidnapper?! Is Itakura Taku really kidnapped?"

Jiang Xia glanced at the list: "Starlight City Hotel... I remembered that a dentist's son was kidnapped a few days ago, and the two kidnappers moved into this hotel with their hostages.

"After the kidnapper was caught, many police and reporters rushed there. Perhaps Mr. Itakura felt that this was not conducive to his 'disappearance', so he changed the hotel."

Conan was slightly startled: Starlight City Hotel... If I remember correctly, Toru Amuro was also there at that time! And the suspicious boss followed someone to the hotel.

A thought jumped out of his mind: Could it be that Toru Amuro, Taku Itakura, and the unlucky man who was killed in a bomb a while ago... are there some kind of connection among these people?

Next to him, Jiang Xia was already urging the Mediterranean client like a ruthless capitalist: "Getting this kind of feedback shows that our idea of ​​​​finding people is correct. Keep fighting. If you are lucky, maybe the next one will be the one. "

Mediterranean responded excitedly, like a shot of chicken blood: "Okay!"
