A Detective: I Believe in Science

Chapter 237 Generous

"Conan, you just said that someone was kidnapped, do you have evidence?"

"Not now."

Takagi's face drooped suddenly. He and Police Officer Sato rushed over when they heard the news, but when they arrived, they told them that the news was uncertain. Was it because they were idle?
"Now?"

Sato grasped the deep meaning contained in Conan's words. Now that he doesn't have it, he can only say that he hasn't got it yet. It can't be said that he doesn't have it. I'm afraid this is why Conan asked them to come over.

"Yes, we deduced this news based on the clues left by the kidnapped, and we need the help of the two of you for the evidence."

Conan handed the pendant to Takagi and Sato casually, and explained the coded information they got from above.

"Then what should we do now."

Although Takagi didn't quite believe what Conan said, but because of the uncle's face, he decided to listen to it before making a decision.

"Call the monitoring. I just observed. There is only one road around here. They have to take this road if they want to leave. The cameras of nearby businesses should be able to take pictures."

"Then let's go quickly. If things are really as Conan said, we're probably busy."

Officer Sato made a decisive decision, and she also had a certain understanding of Conan, not like the kind of child who targeted for no reason.

……

"How do you think about it, Mr. Paul, the price I offered is already sincere enough."

In the circus office, only Noah, Paul, and the translator were left.

And the snow-white little lion stayed in Noah's arms obediently.

At this time, Noah looked at the little white lion in his hand with a smile on his face, and his eyes showed that he was bound to win, and occasionally reached out to stroke the little white lion's head.

In stark contrast, Paul, who was sitting opposite, had a gloomy face, and seemed to be experiencing a violent struggle in his heart.

"Mr. Paul, Leon is still very young. For a long time, you don't have to worry about finding a replacement for it. What's more, it can continue to live."

That's right, the target of Noah's return is this little white lion in his hand. He is bound to get this little white lion, and he will not hesitate to pay a lot of money for it.

"What's more, with this money, you can do whatever you want, and the casino will come back, and you will no longer be subject to economic sanctions."

Noah's words hit Paul's heart directly, and his eyes turned red instantly.

He felt that Noah was right. With this money, he would definitely be able to win more money. At that time, he would not have to be restrained everywhere like he is now.

The hesitation on Paul's face dissipated, replaced by firmness, he said in a deep voice.

"I can promise to sell it to you, but your price is not enough, add another [-] million."

Hearing Paul speak, Noah breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. What he was worried about was that Paul was restricted by his father and did not dare to sell.

Now it seems that my verbal stimulation is quite effective. Since the other party has spoken, it means that most of the matter has been completed, and it doesn't matter if the price is more.

However, the price still needs to be lowered, otherwise the other party's gambler character will increase the price.

"Impossible. The price I gave you of [-] million is already much higher than the market price. What's more, it's just a cub now. It's not certain whether I can feed it or not. No matter how rich I am, I can't spend it like this."

Hearing this, Paul's face froze. Noah was right, [-] million is already the highest price, but he is not reconciled, he needs more gambling money to make money.

Someone had quoted a price for this little white lion when it was just born, but let alone [-] million, [-] million is rare, and it was precisely because Noah asked for [-] million that he was interested in talking with the other party here.

"Two hundred and fifty million, this is my bottom line, if you don't want to, please leave."

Noah raised his eyes and took a deep look at Paul. He didn't believe that this was the bottom line, it should be the other party's rhetoric.

If it was an ordinary item, Noah would turn around and leave now to grind down the price, but this little white lion meant a lot to him, and he was too lazy to continue arguing with the other party.

"I hope this is your last offer, Mr. Paul, and the extra 5000 million will be considered as your friend."

Hearing Noah's agreement, Paul immediately beamed with joy. He originally thought that the other party would continue to counter-offer, but he didn't expect it to be so straightforward, and said in a relaxed tone.

"That's really my honor. If there is a similar transaction next time, I will definitely give you priority."

... The next time you want to sell it, I don't necessarily want to buy it, and I don't even think about it. Besides me, who else will take advantage of this price.

After the transaction, Noah clearly felt that Paul relaxed a lot.

This made Noah guess that today's transaction should have been carried out without telling Randy Hawke, and the other party did not show up until the end of the transaction, so Paul was given a chance, otherwise there might not be any moths.

In fact, Paul's worry was completely unnecessary, because the group of bodyguards saw the wrong person, when Randy Hawk walked out of the airport alone, he was immediately invited away by the TV station, and he is now being interviewed.

……

The kidnappers who held James Blake also knew that they had kidnapped the wrong person, because Randy Hawk's interview process was being broadcast on the car radio.

"I told you I'm not Randy Hawke, let me out of the car."

"Brother, what should we do now, should we let him go?"

The kidnapper sitting next to James Blake ignored his request, but turned to ask the elder brother who was sitting in the co-pilot.

"Are you kidding? Our faces have already been seen by this guy. How could we let him go? Damn it, how could it be tied wrongly."

The big brother of the kidnapper had a gloomy face. The plan that the three of them prepared quietly failed.

"Brother, it's not good, a police car is coming up from behind."

"How could this be? No one was there at the time, so whoever called the police."

"Don't get excited, don't panic, we have guns and hostages in our hands, so what about the police, continue to implement our original retreat plan."

At the critical moment, the elder brother remained calm, forcibly steadied the two younger brothers, and stared coldly at the police car that appeared in the rearview mirror.

James Black bowed his head as if resigned to his fate after hearing the kidnapper's way of dealing with him, and seemed to give up resistance.

However, when he heard the police appear behind them, the corners of his mouth rose slightly, and he sighed secretly.

"I don't know who solved the password I left, is it the little boy?"

In fact, the policemen who appeared behind were Sato and Takagi. After they retrieved the surveillance video, they easily discovered the scene of two masked men holding James Blake into the car.

Afterwards, they hurriedly informed the headquarters of the matter, relied on city surveillance to monitor the license plate of the car in real time, and finally locked the location of the other party.

"Officer Sato, they have guns and hostages in their hands, what should we do to stop them."

Hearing Takagi's question, Sato's face was a bit distressed. She was thinking about this question just now, and now she is worrying in her heart.

"I have an idea, maybe I can try it."

"When did you come up?"

Hearing the sound from the back seat, Police Officer Takagi was so frightened that he almost lost his grip on the steering wheel. He turned his head and saw Conan and Haibara. He thought he and Sato were the only ones in the car.

"any solution?"

Sato didn't care about their getting into the police car, she was more concerned about how to rescue the hostages now.
