Chapter 889 Antonyms for Goro Akechi
Goro Akechi, who was approaching the cafe, glanced at Hattori Heiji, who was lying on his back and pretending to be dead. The formulaic smile on his face did not change. He passed him directly and walked into the door of the cafe, telling him that he was too lazy to communicate. The attitude over there is vividly displayed.
Hattori Heiji, who was completely ignored, could only watch him walk in the door, greet Amuro Toru and Karasawa skillfully, and then approached Karasawa and said something.
Tangze nodded and took him up to the attic.
After a while, Goro Akechi, who changed his clothes and covered his face with the hood of his sweatshirt, finally sat in front of Hattori Heiji.
Hattori Heiji looked at his actions with a strange expression. He looked back and forth between Karasawa, who was sitting back at the bar, and Goro Akechi, who was sitting in front of him. He felt an indescribable subtle feeling in his heart.
How should I put it, if this scene happened at the scene of the crime, then the detective should have some suspicions of identity exchange and perjury...
"I didn't mean to ignore you." Tangze, who had completed the identity swap, crossed his hands and covered half of his face exposed under his hood. "There have been a lot of programs recently, and the conversation may not go on without a little modification."
What is this, showing off your popularity?
Looking at Akechi Goro's face, which was covered by the shadow of his hood, Hattori Heiji instinctively began to speculate in a bad direction about what he had just said.
But I have to admit that after changing his clothes and putting away that expression, although his face is still the same, it is difficult to recognize him as the popular detective at a glance.
...So, whenever you appear in public, you will always only wear that suit that seems to be welded to your body, is it also to completely bind your image and appearance, so that you can simply change clothes when necessary to avoid other people's eyes?
It's right to think about it, this is a guy who doesn't know anything about the organization...
After thinking about conspiracy theories for a while, Hattori Heiji coughed and brought his thoughts back: "Actually, there is nothing to ask, it's just about that variety show. I'm different from you. No experience in negotiating.”
"So, do you want to pack up with me and negotiate salary with the TV station?" Akechi Goro heard this and cast a playful look from the edge of his hood, "For Karasawa's sake, I don't have any objections. You mention it to my boss yourself.”
"Who wants to pack it with you!" Hattori Heiji first expressed his stern rebuttal, and then lowered his voice, "I just want to confirm that there won't be any unofficial plans, scripts, or more offensive planning processes... ”
This is not to say that he is unfounded. What Karasawa and Toru Amuro said just now did speak to his hidden worries.
In the final analysis, detectives can only judge the level of ability when facing a case. Simply comparing IQ or knowledge ability is not of much significance.
What he is afraid of is that the program crew will use other people's reputations to back someone up for the sake of the program's effect, or they will do something more offensive, such as using some unsolved cases as a gimmick or doing something like solving a crime on the spot.
The program team can have no lower limit on topics, but the detectives can't. Moreover, their reputation is not created by gimmicks. It is fed by the cases and commissions they have handled one after another. They should not be wasted here. Plant a place.
"Well, if you insist on saying it, there is something wrong with the script." Someone who was adding fuel to the plan thought thoughtfully and replied, "There is nothing that can be done about it. The TV station must be worried about issues such as the program flow being out of control. So I can understand that I want to restrict the rhythm of the show to a certain extent, but don’t worry about this kind of thing, I care more about feathers than you do, and I won’t let them go too far.”
Just saying that you care about reputation is really hard to refute...
"I still hope you can participate in the show. This has nothing to do with my personal preferences. The main reason is that if there is no heavyweight guest lineup, there is no need to participate no matter how much money you pay. In terms of remuneration, the boss will not fight for you. You are not an employee of our firm. However, I will try my best to urge the program team to treat everyone equally and implement this requirement in a written contract with everyone. If you are worried, you can submit it together at that time. Let the boss go and see it, he will be responsible for the details in this regard..."
Goro Akechi lowered his eyes and began to elaborate on the details surrounding this variety show. His tone was serious. Compared to the young high school detective, he looked more like a seasoned agent or an artist who had been in Vanity Fair for a long time.
As Hattori Heiji listened, he couldn't help but start to lose focus.
Judging from what Kudo revealed, Goro Akechi is a somewhat divided guy.
He is the illegitimate son of the former politician Shigehiko Tonkou. Because of his invisible background, he was sent away from his parents when he was a child. When he appeared in the public eye, he was already a glamorous returnee elite, completely out of Personal hobbies and ambitions to join the detective industry.
Judging from the information Tangze gave and his relationship with the organization, his experience away from the public eye should have been spent in the organization.
Due to his father's neglect and even hatred, he was used as an experimental consumable and was forced to accept the organization's drug control. As a result, he came into contact with Tang Ze's parents and Tang Ze himself. Then, because of his connection with Tang Ze, he became the best candidate for the organization to blackmail and monitor Tang Ze...
Thinking of this, Hattori Heiji frowned.
It sounds like the logic is pretty smooth, but after counting carefully, it seems that there are a lot of details and it feels like something is not quite right...
Thinking of this, Hattori Heiji couldn't help but blurt out the complaint that immediately came to his lips: "If you cherish your reputation so much, why do you still stand with those people?"
This was a suspicious person who could not withstand careful scrutiny. To him, Goro Akechi should never have chosen the career of detective.
As one of the professions closest to conflict with crime and human nature, if you don't have the ability to resist this kind of erosion, you will only accelerate your descent into darkness.
The words on his lips were interrupted by Hattori Heiji. Goro Akechi raised his eyelids and glanced at him with a look that was cold to the point of being harsh.
"Just like you were born the child of a policeman, and I was born the son of a criminal. You don't have a choice, so I don't have any choice. I don't even get any blessings for the birth itself. I'm really sorry."
"You..." Hearing Goro Akechi describe himself so straightforwardly, Hattori Heiji's words of persuasion were blocked.
"Sometimes I really envy you guys. You can just open your mouth and talk useless nonsense." Karasawa rolled his eyes and glanced at Hoshikawa, who had his back to this side. He didn't know if he was feeling pressured by Amuro. Hui, "You will be dissatisfied because others regard you as the son of a high-ranking police official and ignore what you own. I only own everything of my own, so I can only give myself a name. It's really interesting."
These words are not only to fit Akechi’s character, but also Karasawa’s sincere emotion about Hoshikawa Teru’s background.
Regardless of the complicated background behind it, and just considering him as Kumel who was simply from the organization, Hattori Heiji's question is really offensive. Although the situation is different from that of Goro Akechi in the original work, what Hoshikawa has experienced is indeed similar to him to some extent.
He was not the only son of Tonkou Shigehiko, but Tonkou Shigehiko himself was a bride-in-law, and his birth certificate was completely destroyed. Therefore, Hoshikawa was not only a gangster, but also given a surname that had nothing to do with him.
He would want to give himself another name and regard it as his real name, which is probably the biggest resistance he can make.
Hattori Heiji is simply the antonym of Akechi Goro. If such a person really existed, of course he would instinctively dislike him.
"I know you don't like me, just like you also know that I don't like you. This is information you may use. In addition to the variety show itself, I also want to remind you that there may also be potential TV channels. Threatening." Tang Ze smiled again and took out several neatly organized documents from his bag. "I'm glad you are Tang Ze's friend. You are willing to make a lot of efforts and sacrifices for your friends, so you are still useful to Tang Ze. . Otherwise..."
He didn't say anything else, but the threat was already clear.
Even though Karasawa has added many rules and regulations to the character for the sake of rationality, the undertone of Goro Akechi is that he must retaliate for his actions.
Hattori Heiji frowned, turned his head and looked in the direction of the cafe, and at least restrained his emotions.
He really needs these documents. Judging from this guy's hints, there might be something wrong with the suspicious host Rena Mizuna that Kudo mentioned earlier.
With a chuckle, Goro Akechi seemed to have anticipated his reaction and said a few words in a low volume before standing up.
"Seeing as you are really working hard to solve Tangze's case, let me give you a reminder. The problem is not with the police station, but don't rely on your identity and trust the police too easily. I am the son of the police chief."
Hattori Heiji suppressed the documents on the table and did not react to his words.
He watched as Goro Akechi stood up and walked back to the cafe, changed back to his usual outfit, and regained his bright daily image. He nodded and smiled at the girl who recognized him on the roadside, and walked away, holding his hand The action never changes.
Hattori Heiji was not surprised by Akechi Goro's speech. After experiencing several resistances in the investigation, he already fully understood the weight of this sentence.
He sat there and didn't move, just shuddering because of the speculation he had just made.
Upstairs in the cafe, Conan was thinking hard about how to respond to the email from the program team, whether to connect remotely or use other methods, when he suddenly received a call from Hattori Heiji.
"Hello? What's the matter? I called suddenly." Conan jumped off the sofa and avoided Mao Lilan and Toyama Kazuha, who were talking to each other without knowing what to say. Their faces were a little red. They held the window and looked down. I went there and saw the very eye-catching Hei Pi sitting there speechlessly, "...Aren't you right here, and you made a special trip to make a phone call?"
"Don't look at me, Kudo. Goro Akechi hasn't gone far yet." Hattori Heiji's tight voice came from the receiver, "Kudo, you said, it's impossible for Kumel to appear suddenly. Is it Goro Akechi?”
————
"Your guess is too crazy."
After hearing the description on the other end, Hui Yuan Ai's hand shook instinctively.
Before she caused problems in the experiment due to her mood swings, she calmly put the pipette back in place, gestured randomly to Noah who didn't know where he was, and asked him to take over the petri dish on the table before turning around. He turned around and commented calmly.
"Even if he doesn't know your and my true identities, his mission is to maintain surveillance and control of Karasawa. If he is a codename member, Kudo, you know what that means."
This means that Kumail, like the former Shirley, that is, Haibara Ai herself, is actually on the opposite side of the organization and is committing acts of betrayal.
"Once these things are exposed, he will end up in the same situation as you, Huiyuan, of course I understand."
"So where did you make your guess?" Haiyuan Ai pulled the mask on his face, feeling helpless.
She didn't think that Karasawa would reveal his flaws in such a place, nor did she think that Hoshikawa Teru would make arbitrary decisions on such a critical issue. For them to have such suspicion, it must be that Karasawa had done something else.
The same goes for Karasawa, who doesn't have a good relationship with Kudo Hattori. Sometimes he really cares about their experience. Whenever anything involves them, he will try his best to ensure their safety. Basically, he takes care of everything on his own. All injuries were taken care of.
But if you want to say that he has a good relationship with them, really, except for ordinary people like Suzuki Sonoko who are completely unaware of the existence of the organization, they are the only friends of Karasawa who are kept in the dark.
Even Koshizui Nanatsuki, who had just met each other, because he was interested in the opponent's ability and wanted to draw a picture and recruit people, Karasawa did not hesitate to reveal his true identity...
"But his situation is really suspicious." Hattori Heiji described his speculation to the open mobile phone, "The codename Kumail, according to our previous reasoning, should not be an old member. He is very likely He is a newly promoted code member. In the previous incident of Kiichiro Numabuchi, when Numabuchi was taken away by the murderer, his reason was still clear, but he was overly frightened. But by the time the police found him, his mental state had already deteriorated. Something is completely wrong.”
Conan held his chin in thought, and added a few words: "You also said that Numa Yuan was actually an abandoned son because his physical fitness was not up to standard. Because of this, after he escaped from the organization, the organization ignored him at all. The intention was to chase him. But when he was involved in the case and was about to be arrested, he suddenly lost his mind."
"He kept saying, 'Kumel says hello' and so on..." Hattori Heiji recalled that scene and felt his temples throbbing nervously. "An act that was more provocative than provocative. ”
Just like Goro Akechi.
