Stay away from Conan

Chapter 281 Discussion on the identity of the kidnapper

"Mr. Detective? What do you mean by that?"

After hearing Gao Yuan's words, Noguchi Yuri obviously heard the implication of his words and asked in a somewhat unhappy tone.

"Stupid! That's because the kidnappers don't know that the Yuanzi family is also rich!"

Kogoro obviously didn't have that much thought and simply rebutted Gao Yuandao.

"Not necessarily. Maybe the kidnapper knew about it, but because he only had a grudge against the Noguchi family, it's possible that he didn't ask for ransom from the innocent Suzuki family."

Miwako Sato thought.

"In other words, this kidnapping is out of revenge!"

Takagi Wataru agrees with Miwako Sato's statement.

"Then does anyone have any grudge against the deceased Mr. Noguchi?"

Conan asked curiously, and this question immediately attracted the attention of everyone present.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Huiyuan Ai quietly walked to Gao Yuan and asked in a low voice:

"What did you suspect when you asked that just now?"

"Well, it's a bit of a guess."

In a low voice, Gao Yuan replied - after all, diamonds worth one billion yen are different from assets worth one billion yen, and they cannot be obtained in a short time. Even if they knew that Noguchi Daigoro's inheritance contained a large number of diamonds, how did the kidnappers be sure that the other party would be able to obtain diamonds worth one billion yen?

Therefore, the kidnappers obviously knew that the Noguchi family had access to so many diamonds.

Hearing this, Huiyuan Ai said calmly:

"But if you ask that, they won't admit it."

In this regard, Gao Yuan did not explain much and continued to listen to the stories of those present.

"It's not that I'm boasting, nor that I want to show off. The president basically did business in a way that offended people during his lifetime."

Kamoshida couldn't help but smile bitterly when facing Conan's question.

"Yes, I heard that when he came back from collecting the loan, he did a lot of outrageous things!"

Kogoro couldn't help but echoed.

"Dad...dad!"

Hearing this, Xiaolan quickly bumped Kogoro's abdomen with her elbow, asking him to pay attention to the situation. Noguchi Daigoro's daughter was still here.

"ah!"

In response, Kogoro immediately wanted to relieve the embarrassment and said:

"I was rude just now. Your father just hardened his heart and implemented his own policy to do business."

Kogoro was at a loss as he tried his best to hide it.

"It doesn't matter, because it's all true."

Miki Noguchi said:

"My father is a person who is very obsessed with money. No matter how poor the family is, as long as they borrow money, my father will definitely get all the money back. Maybe this is his fun, so it is natural for some people to hate him ”

"Well, it seems more and more likely that the kidnapper is someone who hates Mr. Noguchi."

After hearing this, Takagi Wataru said this, and looked at Kogoro and Gao Yuan aside, as if seeking approval.

In this regard, Kogoro naturally insisted on this possibility, but Gao Yuan looked as usual and did not make any statement, but asked:

"What phone did the kidnapper use and where did he call? Can you find out?"

"Ah! We've asked the phone company to investigate."

Takagi Wataru replied.

"The results of it?"

Gao Yuan asked.

"There are currently no results, and it is obviously unlikely that the other person used his or her own mobile phone to make the call."

Officer Megure said.

Everyone agreed with this, while Gao Yuan was thoughtful about the word "mobile phone" - that is to say, as long as you carry it with you, you can make calls anywhere!

"By the way! Sister Miki, has Miss Yuri been followed recently?"

At this time, Conan, who was thinking, suddenly asked.

Although it was a bit surprising that this question would be asked by a child, Noguchi Miki still answered:

"Well, yes, it seems like it started last month."

Hearing this, Kogoro, who originally wanted to teach Conan a lesson, immediately asked:

"Hey! Really! Do you know who is following your sister!"

Somewhat excited, Kogoro leaned forward and leaned in front of Noguchi Miki.

"Ah, this guy is really not low-key at all."

Regarding Conan's behavior, Haiyuan Ai couldn't help but sigh lightly, "I'm just afraid that the girl next to him will see the flaws sooner or later."

"Okay, you were almost the same just now."

Gao Yuan said quietly.

"Ah? No way?"

With a faint smile, Hui Yuan Ai looked up at Gao Yuan, stretched out his right hand, and brushed his hair on the right side of his temple. The cuff of his sleeve fell down, revealing the "lover" on his hand, which looked a little playful:

"It's not a big deal that girls like diamonds."

Hearing this, Gao Yuan could not refute and could only smile helplessly.

Miki Noguchi continued to answer:

"I don't know. But my sister did say it several times since last month... By the way! One night last week, my sister also said that she was being followed and chased all the way to the door of the house. I looked through the window , saw a black figure running away quickly! "

Saying this, Noguchi Miki looked a little scared.

"I see!"

Kogoro affirmed, "The kidnapper must be this person! After all, kidnappers usually investigate the hostage's living habits in order to kidnap hostages! Maybe, someone near your home may have witnessed this suspicious person!"

"Yes! It's possible!"

Miwako Sato said, "I immediately contacted the patrol officer at the nearby police station to see if I could find any clues to determine the appearance of the kidnapper."

"But don't you think it's strange?"

Conan continued, Gao Yuan could only watch helplessly and did not want to take the initiative to lead the topic. After all, Gao Yuan's thinking was obviously different from others.

"The kidnapper will indeed carefully investigate the target's actions before committing a crime. However, his purpose is to find out when, where, and how to kidnap the hostage without being noticed... However, Miss Yuri was attacked in this temple. He was kidnapped..."

As Conan said this, he suddenly felt that something was wrong with the way the people present looked at him, so he quickly changed his words, looked at Gao Yuan, and said with an awkward smile:

"This was mentioned in the mystery drama on TV before! And just now, brother Gao Yuan also said the same, right!"

"Huh? Is there any?"

Xiaolan said in confusion, "Didn't we just mention this issue? When did Mr. Mingzhi tell Conan?"

"When I first got here, I met you."

Somewhat helplessly, Gao Yuan could only forcefully explain:

"Mr. Noguchi passed away yesterday. Even if the kidnappers planned to kidnap her in this temple, they obviously didn't have time to investigate in advance. So when I came here, I felt that it was unlikely that the kidnappers were following Miss Yuri to designate the kidnapping plan... Unless the kidnappers knew from the beginning that when Mr. Noguchi dies, a funeral will be held here... Therefore, it is very likely that the person Miss Miki mentioned is just a simple stalker."

I wanted to continue speaking in a meaningful way, but the corner of Gao Yuan's clothes was tugged by Haiyuan Ai, so Gao Yuan immediately added a sentence and changed the topic.

"This, if you say that, it makes sense!"

After hearing what Gao Yuan said, Officer Megu was a little confused for a moment.

"Maybe not."

Takagi Sheta suddenly said:

"It's possible that that person saw that his original plan failed, so he mingled with the worshipers and waited for an opportunity to strike."

"No! Absolutely impossible!"

Kogoro immediately denied his statement, and both Gao Yuan and Conan looked at him in surprise, wondering what kind of "high opinion" he would say.

"How is it impossible?"

Seeing that his reasoning was denied, Takagi Wataru asked unwillingly.

"Because the kidnapper is a monk from this temple!"
