Conan reborn as a detective

Chapter 218 News from the Twilight Annex
The next day, Gao Cheng returned to the office after finishing his morning run, but the bakery was still closed.

It may be difficult for Zhishu and his wife to get out of the shock of their daughter's murder in a short time, and there is nothing he can do about this kind of thing.

Shaking his head and returning to the office, he turned on the TV as usual, and picked up the newspapers to browse.

The news from the media is very good. The case that was solved only yesterday has already been reported.

"A few days ago, a bandit group that had been on the run for 20 years was arrested," a news item suddenly appeared on TV, "Twenty years ago, the mastermind of the 20 million yuan robbery murder case, Da Caisan, a black shadow planner, was killed by his accomplices. The three escaped... The accomplices reunited on the same boat on the day before the end of the prosecution period after 4 years, and the two gangsters were killed in the infighting... The murderer was spotted by the famous detective Mori Kogoro..."

"Uncle, that guy solved the case again?"

Gao Cheng watched the news report carefully.

The three fugitive gangsters agreed on the time and method of meeting 3 years ago. They reunited by boat through the free tour group activity in the newspaper. It may be that 20 places were set for insurance, which happened to let Uncle Maori go up.

"It must be Conan's credit again."

Gao Cheng looked at Uncle Mao Li who was laughing triumphantly on TV, curled his lips and continued to read the newspaper.

At this time, a card suddenly fell from the newspaper.

"Huh?" Gao Cheng picked up the card in doubt, turned it over and found Kidd's special signature.

"Pay attention to checking emails, just treat it as someone's reward, Kaitou Kidd is here."

"When did that guy..." Gao Cheng's expression darkened, but he still turned on the computer.

A new email from an unknown source was added to the empty emails, and the words "Twilight Villa" on the subject made Gao Cheng's eyes shrink tightly.

Because he couldn't find the location of the Twilight Annex, he was a little hopeless, and now he saw this word in an inexplicable email.

He opened the email with trembling fingers, and after a short wait, a photo of a magnificent villa located on the top of the mountain appeared in front of Gao Cheng, together with relevant information about the Twilight Villa.

Renye Karasuma, a millionaire half a century ago, was also the original owner of the Twilight Annex.

It is rumored that more than 40 years ago, a large-scale auction was held in the Twilight Annex to commemorate the death of Renye Karasuma. All the well-known politicians and businessmen from all walks of life who were invited to participate in the auction died tragically in the Annex, and their blood remained in the annex. Every corner of the annex...

The veracity of the rumors needs to be verified. It may be that the guests are all celebrities in the political and economic circles. There is no report on the incident, or it may be a lie at all, and no one has verified the details.

Over the years, the Twilight Villa has passed through the hands of many people, until it seems to be bought by two detectives two years ago, and its current value is between 3 and 5 million...

"How did that guy know that I wanted to buy the Twilight Villa?" Gao Cheng frowned as he looked at the contents of the email.

The email stated that the Twilight Annex was located in Tottori Prefecture, which was a great help to him, but the two detectives actually bought it two years ago.

It seems that he is still looking for treasures, and he will definitely not sell it to an outsider at this time.

Even if he lets him join, there will definitely be no good things.

According to his original thinking, it would be best to buy the Twilight Villa by himself and make a fortune in silence. After all, it might be difficult to keep things worth hundreds of billions of dollars if they are exposed.

But the situation was completely different from what he thought.

The two detectives didn't know that the treasure was the villa itself, so they would definitely try their best to find the treasure. If they couldn't solve it, they would call many detectives. It would be a matter of time before the Twilight Villa was exposed.

Gao Cheng looked at Kaito Kidd's hateful smiling face and signed the signature, and kneaded Kaito Kuroba in his mind.

I thought this guy had some kind of great reward, but in the end there is only this level of information...

"Forget it, why do you need so much money?"

……

Tottori Prefecture, mountainous area.

Gao Cheng was driving on the winding mountain road, the sky was dark, and it gradually seemed to be raining.

Hui Yuan was sitting beside him with a map, pointed to the front softly and said, "According to the above, there should be a gas station not far ahead."

"Really, why do you always like to build villas in the deep mountains, and you haven't found a place for a long time." Gao Cheng said angrily.

The cost of renting a car is not high, but all the way from the Tokyo Expressway, tolls, fuel costs, and various miscellaneous expenses cost a lot.

Huiyuan glanced at Gao Cheng indifferently, and didn't say that it was because Gao Cheng lost his way that he wasted a lot of time.

The rain fell as soon as it was said, with a clatter, and there was a burst of thunder in the dark sky from time to time, which made Gao Cheng mutter in his heart.

You can't even see half a person in the vicinity, if you are trapped in this kind of place, it will be fatal...

After turning a corner and seeing the gas station at the intersection, Gao Cheng was slightly relieved.

At least the map is fine.

"Hey," Huiyuan asked suddenly, "Why are you in such a hurry to come to this kind of place? Didn't you receive the commission?"

"Of course it's to make a fortune... Cough, I'm just interested in the rumors about the Twilight Villa, and I want to come here to verify it." Gao Cheng said seriously.

"Is that what the thief mentioned in the email?"

"how do you know?"

"You've been talking about it all day."

"Uh……"

Gao Cheng licked his lips, concentrated on driving into the gas station, and asked the owner of the gas station for directions.

It was almost ten o'clock when the car arrived in front of the villa at dusk. The good news was that the lights were still on in the villa, so the trip was not in vain.

"You are?" The door of the villa opened, a middle-aged man in a white suit with a raised mustache vigilantly looked at Gao Cheng and Hui Yuan with his hands behind his back, narrowed his eyes and said, "If I remember correctly, you Is it Kido Takasei who has been very active in Tokyo recently?"

"Yes, it's me." Gao Cheng also looked curiously at the middle-aged man in front of him who looked more like a chef of a high-end restaurant because of his fat body. "May I ask who you are?"

Huiyuan said softly: "Detective Gourmet, Osama Zhushan, right?"

"Hmph, this kid is quite clear." Dashang Zhushan accidentally glanced at Huiyuan, and looked at Gao Cheng with vigilance, "You, a famous detective, don't stay in Tokyo, what are you doing here?"

"You have never been able to find the treasure here, right?" Gao Cheng looked directly at Da Shang, and saw the momentary shock on the other's face.

"You, how do you know?" Dashang tensed his body and looked at Gao Cheng.

"Don't worry, if I have any malicious intentions, I won't bring the child with me," Gao Cheng said with a grin, "Can you let us in first, it's quite cold outside."

Dashang's expression changed for a while, and finally he let Gao Cheng into the villa in a gloomy manner: "Do you need something to eat?"

"No."

Gao Cheng shook his head, what a joke, how dare he eat the food here casually.
