Detective Conan: The White Organization

Chapter 23

After Conan explained the situation to Officer Megure, he also learned the details of the incident from here.

The prisoner hid among the 58,000 spectators in the stadium. He called the director of the Japanese TV station and asked the TV station to pay a ransom of 50 million within the specified time, and he would be responsible for shooting the audience indiscriminately.

The football shot before was just proof for the director to prove that what he said was true.

What's even more terrible is that the prisoner demanded that once the game was terminated, he would shoot immediately!

"However, this may also be a prank by the prisoner, or it may be an air gun or something..."

"No, it's a Tokarev pistol. Well, the bullet is right here, a standard pistol bullet." Xiao Yu handed the bullet warhead to Officer Mumu. In a moment, Officer Mumu realized the seriousness of the problem.

The other party is definitely not joking.

"Everyone! Get into the stadium immediately! Check everyone who calls!"

However, at this time, the director contacted by the prisoner saw Haiyuan wearing a hat and said in surprise: "Hey, it turns out you are a girl, but didn't the call say boy?"

"What's the look in your eyes? Ai Jiang is so cute, she's obviously a girl! Are you clumsy-eyed?" Xiao Yu said immediately after hearing this.

However, these words gave Conan a wake-up call. Seeing his instantly changed expression, the corners of Xiao Yu's mouth curled up slightly.

"Wait a minute! Officer Megure! You must not arrest the prisoner casually! He has accomplices!" Conan immediately shouted to Officer Megure.

Officer Megure had long been immune to Conan's cleverness, so he couldn't help but cheer up at this time: "Conan, why do you say that? Have you noticed something?"

"The reason why the prisoner said Haiyuan was a boy was because his hat and clothes were blocked by the edge of the stand, so he mistook Haiyuan for a boy. At that time..."

"The prisoner who fired the gun at that time was obviously in the same direction as us, but the person who made the call was opposite us, so there were at least two prisoners in the stadium." Xiao Yu added the second half of Conan's sentence.

talk.

Officer Mu Mu suddenly became alert and immediately ordered the police to monitor the scene. However, without his order, they must not act rashly.

At the same time, the Japanese TV station was also asked to start preparing for ransom. After all, the police now have no ability to find the prisoners among 56,000 people without alerting them. Now they can only use money to stabilize the prisoners.

A flash of light flashed in Xiao Yu's eyes. Things were going as he expected. Xiao Yu could not remember the specific details of this incident. Only the ransom requested by a prisoner would be paid here in cash.

A total of 150 million yen.

And this is Xiao Yu's goal.

Well, although it takes some effort to get this money under the noses of Conan and many police officers, it is such a challenging thing that Xiao Yu can get interested in and enjoy.

Sa, detective, let's see if you can successfully get the money back with my careful layout. I'm looking forward to it.

Xiao Yu looked at Conan's thinking figure and showed a strange expression.

"Ara, with such a terrifying expression, is it possible that this hijacking incident was planned by a guy who claimed to be a villain?" Haiyuan couldn't help but said teasingly when he saw Xiao Yu's expression.

Xiao Yu chuckled: "Well, although I didn't plan the incident, I do plan to take part in it."

"Eh?" Haiyuan was stunned for a moment. She was just joking, but she didn't expect that Xiao Yu would admit it openly!

"An Xin, my goal is just money. As for the gangsters, don't worry. The great detective will definitely help me bring them to justice. If he can't do it, then I will have to take action myself... Speaking of which, those three children

What?" Xiao Yu said in surprise when he suddenly realized that the three troublemakers had disappeared.

Hearing Xiao Yu's surprised voice, Conan turned around and twitched the corners of his mouth: "Could it be..."

"Ah, yes, they heard that they could return to the venue with their ticket stubs, so they immediately ran back happily." Haiyuan spread his hands and said calmly. As for the things Xiao Yu just told her, Huiyuan

She didn't say a word to Conan. It seemed that this little girl was also very curious about what Xiao Yu wanted to do.

…

In the stadium, the three troublemakers dispersed, searching the auditorium in a decent manner, holding detective armbands made by Dr. Agasa, and communicating with each other about the situation they had obtained.

"I am Yuantai, no suspicious targets have been found here."

"I'm Mitsuhiko, and there are no suspicious targets here."

"Hey, I'm Ayumi..."

"I'm Ayumi! What are you doing! The other party is a gangster! They have guns in their hands! You will die if you are shot! Leave this matter to the police, you kids, leave the stadium immediately!"

As soon as Ayumi connected, Conan's roar immediately burst out.

"No!" The three people immediately said in unison.

"Aren't you still a child yourself? Aren't we partners in the juvenile detective team? We also want to help catch the criminal." The words of the three little ghosts were quite loud and impassioned.

Conan was speechless by what they said. Xiao Yu smiled and patted his shoulder, took the detective armband and said: "You have done a good job, but you still have to pay attention to your own safety. If you find any suspicious persons, call them immediately."

Inform me, or Conan. If you can't inform us, find a police officer you know nearby. I think you know a lot of police officers. However, this is the last time. If you act independently in the future, whether it is me or Conan,

, will all quit the Young Detective Corps."

"...Hi..." the three brats said in a long voice.

"Hey, is this really okay? Although the three of them are children and will not attract each other's attention, they may really play a big role in the search. But if you encourage them like this, if you really don't care

Isn't it bad to catch the criminal? And...resigning from the Young Detective Corps or something, are you serious?" Conan looked at Xiao Yu and said in surprise.

"An Xin, they can't contact the real prisoner. First of all, their search direction is wrong. They went the wrong way. They were originally going to the opposite stand, but now they are in the stand where we just stayed..." Xiao Yu revealed

He said to Conan with a subtle expression.

Conan immediately chuckled.

"Secondly, quitting the Junior Detective Corps is indeed a warning to them. The three of them are, at best, brave and have a strong sense of justice, but at worst, they are naughty kids. Maybe they will be safe this time

But what about the next time? What about the next time? They are still like this. Even if you have ten lives, it won’t be enough for them to do it, right?"

Conan sighed, who could say otherwise? He had long been worried that he would be tricked to death by these children before he transformed back into Kudo Shinichi.

"Let's not talk about it for now. It's almost the intermission. The police have already laid out the bait, right?"

Conan nodded. He had already installed a bug on Officer Memu's walkie-talkie to obtain the latest information.

"Except for the police at the surveillance position, most of the police are concentrated at Exit 18, waiting for the people who come to withdraw money to show up."

Xiao Yu smiled slightly, took out his phone and took a look. The text message also clearly stated: "Everything is ready."

After a long time, Conan angrily hammered the wall: "Cut."

"What's wrong? The arrest failed?" Xiao Yu looked at Conan and asked with a smile. There was no surprise in his tone, everything was under control.

"Ah, yes, the man who took the money showed up. Just as the police were about to arrest him, another prisoner used the walkie-talkie to warn the police that if they didn't let him go, they would start shooting. At the same time, he also gave new conditions.

Let Nippon Television Station prepare one billion yen within forty-five minutes...Hey, wait a minute..."

Xiao Yu also smiled at this time and said: "You are trying to say that even if Japan TV Station is a big company, the possibility of collecting one billion yen in forty-five minutes is not high, so the gangsters may have other purposes.

Others, right?”

Haiyuan kept looking at the two of them without saying anything. At the same time, he also cast doubtful eyes on Xiao Yu, as if he didn't understand what Xiao Yu was up to.

"Yeah, the possibility that I can think of now is that their goal is the initial 50 million yen, and the threats behind are purely a cover-up to prevent the police from taking rash actions. Damn it, where is this guy? Judging from his performance just now

Look, we should be able to observe the location of Exit No. 18, but there were people with telescopes and cameras...

Wait a moment?

"Maybe I can guess where the other gangster is?" Conan's iconic confident smile appeared on his face. This surprised Xiao Yu. He knew where the other gangster was from the beginning, but that was

Because his own people had already been mixed up in the stadium and analyzed the intelligence obtained from looking around, but Conan only relied on the pitiful intelligence in his hand to deduce it?

"Oh? Where is it? Let's see if we both have the same idea."

"The other gangster must be someone with long-distance observation methods, either a telescope or a camera. But based on the current situation, the other gangster is not in the stands, but we have all overlooked a very important point, that is...

"

"A cameraman from a TV station, right?" Xiao Yu smiled and added what Conan didn't finish.

The two people looked at each other and smiled, and the answer was self-evident.

Huiyuan remained silent from beginning to end. She is also a smart person, or a genius, but her intelligence is not in analysis and reasoning, but in research. There is really no way to get involved in such a topic.

However, when things got to this point, Haiyuan became even more curious, wondering how Xiao Yu wanted to take the money in full view of everyone.

"What!" Suddenly, Conan exclaimed as he listened to the voice coming from the bug.

"What happened?" This time it was not Xiao Yu who asked, but Hui Yuan.

"The gangsters demanded that Nippon Television Station hand over one billion yen within ten minutes, otherwise they will start an indiscriminate massacre!"

"What! Isn't it the forty-five-minute time limit? Why was it suddenly advanced? What on earth did he want to do?" A trace of gloom immediately appeared on Huiyuan's originally calm face.

"The gangster said...the 50 million yen handed over before was counterfeit!"
