Chapter 171 Ehara Tokio is missing
"What does Ehara Tokio mean that Ehara Tokio is missing?" Putting down the coffee at hand, Mouri Kogoro asked in confusion.
"Literally." Shiro Konno pushed up his sunglasses, wiped his laptop with a cherished expression, and said, "I haven't seen him all day today."
"Could it be that he was the organizer and realized something was wrong and stopped showing up at all?" Mr. Jincheng pushed up the sunglasses on his face and laughed twice, "Jiangyuan, you are indeed the kind of person who only shows off his evil intentions through the screen. Where's the coward?"
"Old man, do you know Mr. Ehara?" Mouri Kogoro looked at him on crutches.
"Hey, why don't you know him? After all, he is the murderer of my son." Kenichiro Kaneshiro stamped the crutch in his hand and sighed.
Conan's attention was suddenly attracted, and he looked at Kenichiro Kaneshiro: "Grandpa, are you saying that Ehara Tokio has killed someone?"
"What I said is, He regards it as a child's game," Lin Jingjiang, the servant standing behind him, added.
"Ehara, he is a despicable guy. He has good skills, but he never does anything serious." After wiping off the dust on his computer and starting to apply maintenance coating on it, Konno Shiro said casually, "He is a hacker with a very bad reputation. You should ask Mr. Maeda and Miss Sayama about this."
Sayama Akiko, who has been out of shape today with a pair of sunglasses on her face, folded her arms and smelled He said, turning his head in one direction.
Maeda Satoshi reached out and patted her back, sat closely together, and answered for her: "Akiko's brother, who is also a friend of mine, founded a software company a few years ago. Originally, all aspects of operations were always very good. Good, they have received venture capital from big banks, but Ewon used hacking methods to steal the program they were developing."
Kamijo Hideko, holding a cigarette in his mouth, snorted coldly: "I. He heard about that software and tried to sell it to me. After discovering its origin, the company stopped the acquisition..."
"...but it was too late," Maeda sighed, hugging him. Living with his thin fiancée, "Akiko's brother faced divestment and accountability because of the leak of the software. Unable to face the questioning of his collaborators and investors, he committed suicide by jumping off the building."
Sayama Akiko lowered her head. , quietly leaning on Maeda Satoshi's generous shoulders, still without saying a word.
Her eyes under her sunglasses were red and swollen at the moment.
Last night, after she watched with confusion the Phantom Thief of the Heart disappeared without a trace in the Night Baron's costume, she watched the video twice and then made up her mind to delete it.
When Maeda Satoshi returned to the room, she hugged her boyfriend and broke down crying for the first time in several years.
The stubborn Akiko Sayama almost never showed the pain caused by her brother's death.
The phantom thief who claimed to punish her on her behalf seemed to suddenly take over the heavy burden in her heart. Her emotions completely broke out. She couldn't help hugging her fiancé and cried all night, in his arms. I cried until I fell asleep.
Today her eyes were swollen and her voice was hoarse. If Satoshi Maeda hadn't insisted, she would never have left the room.
"A Cong." The dumb Sayama Akiko suddenly called her boyfriend's name.
"Huh? What's wrong?" Satoshi Maeda patted his girlfriend's back up and down as if coaxing a child and responded subconsciously
"Let's hold the wedding when we get back. "Sayama Akiko looked at the silver ring on his hand and reached out to hold his palm.
Last night, the bright silver ring on her hand held her tightly like an anchor.
While communicating with the mysterious man who claimed to be the Phantom Thief of the Heart, she kept caressing it unconsciously, and finally wavered and accepted the other party's proposal.
...Put the outfit that represents sin in the place designated by the other party.
She also let go of the hatred and anger that had been suppressed on her back.
"Eh?!" Maeda Satoshi was a little surprised, but also at a loss. He froze in his movements, "Didn't you say...I don't want to... for the time being..."
"I changed my mind." Sayama Akiko laughed, put her forehead on the side of his neck, and said softly, "You are right, my brother has been gone for so long, I should let go."
Pain and relief flashed in Maeda Satoshi's eyes. , he hugged his girlfriend deeper into his arms: "Mingzi..."
Conan looked at the two people hugging each other strangely. He didn't quite understand why their style suddenly entered the romance channel. He just thought it was the mention of her brother's death, which made Sayama Akiko feel shaken and needed the comfort of someone close to her.
He was still recalling the information in the words of several people just now.
"So, you came to the 'Mysterious Tour' not because of the virus?" Conan was a little confused, "Could it be that you came here for Ehara Tokio?" Come to participate in the event All the members have a grudge against one of them...it somehow feels familiar.
"They probably are, I'm not interested in hackers or anything like that." Shiro Konno was the one who didn't care the most. He finished his daily routine and put his precious The machine was put into the briefcase, "Anyway, I am really interested in viruses..."
"If the organizer is really Ehara Tokio, then I think there is no chance of getting the virus. It is probably a cover up by him to create a mystery." Kamijou Hideko shook the cigarette in his hand and said with disgust, "With his character, If he had really mastered that horrible virus, he would have spread it around for blackmail, and it would be impossible to share it with others."
Looking at Kamijou Hideko's sexy backless dress, Maori was stunned. Kogoro was a little ready to make a move, and he approached diligently: "You seem to know him very well, Miss Kamijou."
"Humph, after all, he is my ex-husband." Hideko Kamijou shook his head, his long curly hair Then it floated like waves on her smooth back.
"Huh?" Mouri Kogoro was really surprised now, "Look, can't you see..."
A group of people were sitting in an open-air restaurant, drinking afternoon tea and chatting in a friendly manner. While testing each other, Conan suddenly noticed a black shadow from the corner of his eye.
The inexplicable dream from last night still flashed back in his mind from time to time, and he looked keenly in the direction of the shadow.
——I saw a roll of black robe and white mask suddenly thrown down from the upstairs, and hit hard into the swimming pool below, causing the tourists who were playing in the pool to scream.
Almost in the next second, he ran over and asked loudly: "What's wrong!"
Could it be that the missing Ehara Tokio was killed from above? ...
When he saw the mass clearly, his question was stuck in his throat.
"Top hat, mask, cloak and robe..." Tangze, who was following him, squatted down and looked at the things floating on the water.
“This is the costume of the Night Baron.” Kamijou Hideko walked over and recognized the distinctive mask.
She raised her head and looked upward, and saw the semicircular terrace where Conan almost fell yesterday.
"Why did you suddenly throw something like this down? Is it a prank?" Shirou Konno frowned, watching the fabrics slowly unfolding in the swimming pool.
Seeing this scene, Sayama Akiko suddenly tightened her hands with her fiancé, and tears filled her eyes again.
She knew...this was the man's answer.
The mission of "Night Baron" is over.
Conan, who had been attacked, was probably the most nervous among the people present.
He pondered, secretly gauging the reactions of the people in the room, and then looked up at the hotel lobby behind him, trying to find the missing Ehara Tokio.
This sight made him stunned.
A figure with chestnut hair and a black shirt, pushing the largest silver suitcase in his left hand, was leaving the front desk and walking towards the main entrance of the hotel.
From a distance, I couldn’t see this person’s face, but the color scheme made Conan immediately think of a familiar name.
Akechi Goro...?
"What's wrong?" Tang Ze walked up to him, blocking his view, and looked in the direction he was looking for a while, then turned around and said, "Did you find anything?"
"...It's nothing." Conan shook his head, looked away, and watched several participants pick up the suit from the pool, "Maybe I saw it wrong."
< br>
Goro Akechi also came to this hotel for vacation...what a coincidence, not to mention he was dressed very differently.
Ever since Akechi Goro appeared, his khaki double-breasted top and black trousers have never changed. He always looks like this.
Maybe it was just the similar hair color that made him misunderstand.
