The correct posture of Ke Xue's love

Chapter 147

When Hui Yuanai called Gu Shuiquan, the latter was sitting at the coffee table under the dim light, drinking tea, writing the next novel.

Despite the availability of computers, Japanese publishers still have a fairly strong preference for handwritten manuscripts.

Of course, Gu Shuiquan doesn't care what the editors of the publishing house or the judges of those awards think.The more important reason is that recently he has experienced unprecedented peace.

So, for him, sitting alone at the desk and writing like this on a quiet night is a different kind of fun.

Such peace from the heart is not the expressionless silence on his face.

The latter is a pool of stagnant water, bottomless and lifeless.

The former is more like a cool lake in summer, with slight ripples, occasional insects chirping, breeze blowing, and leaves shaking slightly.

The sudden sound of the phone came from the darkness, interrupting the thoughts of Gu Shuiquan who was in the only light in this coffee shop.

He put down his pen, moved his wrist, got up and came to the bar, and picked up the microphone.

"Moses, Moses, Brother Shuiquan?"

"Well, I'm here."

"Yonzi was involved in the case, and now Conan and Xiaolan are taking him to investigate the case. Do you know about this?"

"Huh?" Gu Shuiquan frowned, his expression tightened, "What's the specific situation?"

Hui Yuanai told him the truth of the incident on the phone without adding any subjective opinions.

"I see, um... don't worry, I understand, with that armor, her safety is no problem. Well, I'll hang up first." Gu Shuiquan responded to Hui Yuanai's comfort as calmly as possible.

He hung up the phone, stood there for half a minute, and searched the case in his memory.

The missing old man... the bus... the disk... the accounts... Mihua Construction... the bus station... Yuanzi was kidnapped...

Heh... very good... very good...

Gu Shuiquan rushed into the bedroom, opened the cabinet door violently, grabbed the luggage bag that was always in reserve, and turned to leave.

Behind him, the door of Poirot's Café was open in the night, and in the corner of the shop, the faint light on the coffee table looked fragile in the influx of night.

……

Gu Shuiquan rushed to the street, directly stopped a taxi, ignored the driver's yelling, opened the door, got in, and gave the address.

"I said, you..."

Gu Shuiquan stared coldly at the driver, who gradually turned from anger to fear.

This is... a robbery?

"Start it immediately, hurry up." Gu Shuiquan ordered concisely.

"Ah, hi." The driver frantically started the car, and the speed gradually increased.

"Use the fastest speed."

"Uh...but...it's too fast...I'll be caught by the traffic police anytime soon..." The driver gripped the steering wheel with both hands, carefully watching the face of the man in black on the passenger seat from the corner of his eye.

"money is not a problem."

"I'm saying that if you go faster... it will violate traffic regulations..."

"Money is not a problem, understand?"

"Ah, hi! I see."

The car roared and sped away in the night.

Gu Shuiquan took out the recently purchased satellite phone from the luggage bag, and dialed the number of Conan's mobile phone.

Busy...

The expression on his face grew colder.

The index finger moved frequently on his thigh, and after a few minutes, he pressed Conan's phone number again.

Busy...

The driver who was concentrating on driving began to tremble.

……

bus stop.

On the bus that Mao Lilan took during the day, Conan looked at the names of Mao Lilan and Shile that appeared on the window of the bus, and thought about it.

This is what Xiaolan said, the names she and the old grandfather wrote down when the car window was foggy, so what happened to the mysteriously missing old man?
Beep, beep, beep.

The portable phone in Conan's pocket rang, and he quickly took out the earphones and put them in his ears.

"Moses Moses."

Conan answered the phone, and then he said in surprise:

"The password is unlocked?"

"That's right, I have cracked the password of the disk. Do you know Mihua Construction? The files stored here are the two accounts of Mihua Construction." Dr. Ali said while drinking coffee on the other side of the phone.

"One is the accounts for public announcement, and the other is the internal symbolic secret accounts."

"The internal secret account book records in detail their bribery of politicians, as well as underground transactions in collusion with shareholders' meetings. All shareholders are on the list."

Conan hung up the phone and murmured:
"It turns out that the old man was followed all the way because he brought out this disk with two internal and external accounts from Mihua Construction."

Then he raised his head and said to Mao Lilan: "The man wearing the sunglasses is not after you, sister Xiaolan, but the old man with the disk. That old man is aware of this." , so I took the opportunity to stuff it into your new purse on the bus."

"That's right, he already knew that I was Kogoro Mori's daughter, that's why he kept hinting at me, and even told me that he was poked by my umbrella handle, and almost thought he was plotted... "

Mao Lilan nodded, and then said firmly, "We have to find that old man."

"Ah? How do I find this? Who knows where he went." Suzuki Sonoko looked puzzled.

"It's a newspaper office." Mao Lilan looked at Suzuki Sonoko and said with certainty, "After the old man handed over the disk to me, he probably went to the newspaper office. There is another newspaper office besides the hospital at Muromachi Hospital Station."

"That's right." Suzuki Sonoko clapped his hands, remembering the newspaper office he saw when Mao Lilan dragged him to the Muromachi Hospital Station during the day.

"No." Conan shook his head, "Think about it, the driver of the bus said that the man wearing sunglasses was asking about sister Xiaolan."

"In this way, he already knows that the disk is not on that old man's body?" Suzuki Sonoko reacted, "That's why he asked Mr. Driver about the situation of Xiaolan sitting next to that old man..."

"That is to say... that old man has been caught by that man wearing sunglasses?" Mao Lilan said with a worried expression.

Conan frowned and thought for a while, then ran to the car door, not forgetting to explain.

"Sister Xiaolan, go and call Uncle Maoli and Police Officer Megure."

"Conan, where are you going?" Mao Lilan asked.

"I'll go to the stop sign of the Muromachi Hospital station where my grandfather got off, and see if I can find any clues."

"Then I will go together..."

Before Mao Lilan could finish speaking, Conan immediately interrupted her.

"No." Conan refused with a serious face.

"That man with sunglasses is looking for you everywhere, you just stay here at the bus station and wait for news."

"Oh...well then, I get it." Mao Lilan agreed in a daze.

Conan got off the bus, ran quickly to the door without looking back, took the taxi waiting there before, and left.

And after he left, a figure wearing a windbreaker and leather gloves in such a sweltering weather also appeared outside the bus station...
