I'm writing a novel in Ming Ke, if you mess with me, you'll be the heroine
Chapter 207: Death Tea Party
Sitting in the open back compartment of the truck, Chu Ming leaned against the side, stretched and stretched his muscles.
It has been a long time since he last worked, and it is really tiring to complete the mission. If it were not for the two magnetic fields, he would have left Bourbon here and gone to Tokyo by himself.
"Uncle, did you come here because of a commission from the Takeda family?" Hattori was a little curious.
Maori Kogoro raised his lips, full of pride: "We are different. I received a formal commission. It was delivered by the head of the Takeda family, Mr. Takeda Shinichi, and the head's brother, Mr. Yongsan, personally picked us up. There is also a commission fee of 500,000. How about you, Mr. Hattori, who came from Osaka, ran out of gas on his motorcycle, and got lost?"
After saying that, he glanced at Hattori from the side.
Hattori Heiji gritted his teeth, unwilling to admit defeat, and took out a letter from his side: "I also received a letter of commission, if you don't believe me, take a look."
Chu Ming leaned over to take a closer look, staring at the last sentence, then turned to Hattori to analyze it.
"...Otherwise, a living puppet will be killed by the spider again. Hiss - why do I feel that the letter you received is not a letter of commission, but a letter of threat..."
Conan, Kogoro Mori, and Hattori put their heads together and studied the letter carefully, as if they were having a tea party with the gods of death.
"If the puppet refers to the victim, then we all know that spiders refer to webs. And there is a word '又' in it, which means someone has died before..."
Chu Ming pretended to analyze it, turned around and knocked on the rear glass of the cab in front of him: "Mr. Yong San, is there any news of anyone dying nearby recently? It doesn't matter if it was suicide or homicide."
Takeda Yuzo bit his cigarette, his speech a little unclear: "In recent years, a series of unfortunate things have happened in our family. First, my eldest brother's daughter, my niece hanged herself, then my eldest sister-in-law, and yesterday my eldest brother's good friend also hanged herself in the warehouse..."
Everyone's eyes turned serious. Their long experience in handling cases told them that this suicide was most likely suspicious.
So many death gods gathered here, and in the end one committed suicide. It was too disrespectful to the gathering of three people this time.
"First it was the daughter of the head of the Takeda family, then his wife, and then his good friend..." Hattori muttered to himself, pinching his chin.
"…Then it's next turn to—" Conan squatted next to Hattori and the two looked at each other.
"Master Takeda!"
"Mr. Takeda, please drive faster - hiss -"
Hattori stood up suddenly and shouted to Takeda Yuzo who was in front of him, but Takeda Yuzo slammed on the brakes and his head hit the rear window of the driver's seat, and he sat down dizzy.
"Uncle, why did you stop the car suddenly——"
"Excuse me, little brother. Someone suddenly stopped the car ahead..."
Chu Ming tilted his head and looked forward, and saw Robert Taylor standing on the side of the road waving with a smile on his face.
After he climbed into the back of the car, Hattori and Conan surrounded him from the left and right and began to question him like they were checking his household registration.
When they found out that he was rescued by Takeda Misa during the mudslide three years ago and that he came back to propose to her, they looked at each other, not knowing how to explain it to him.
"Oh, Rob, you are too late. Misa, she has hanged herself in the warehouse..." Takeda Yuzo's unclear voice was carried by the wind from the cab to the trunk.
"W-what! I..."
Chu Ming looked at Rob's face full of shock and sadness. His expression was distorted due to excessive effort. He no longer paid attention to what they were talking about. He yawned, huddled in a corner and closed his eyes, ready to take a nap. He would take a nap now and solve the case directly after absorbing the magnetic field in the evening.
Anyway, Bourbon will have to wait until three days later, so Chu Ming plans to stay with Conan and Hattori during these three days to see if he can get some more magnetic fields.
When they arrived at the Takeda family, Takeda Shinichi was sitting in the hall. When he saw them arrive, he hurried over to them and said that dinner was ready and they were waiting for Mori Kogoro to arrive and take their seat.
Kogoro Mori was very happy with this implicit flattery and looked at Hattori proudly again.
Hattori looked at Kogoro Mori who was showing off in silence and turned his eyes away.
"Are these five your children? I remember you said before that you would bring two people over, but..." Takeda Shinichi was about to take people to the restaurant, but was surprised to find that Mouri Kogoro, who had said he would only bring two people, had brought a bunch of people over. Was he bringing people here to eat for free?
Chu Ming looked at Takeda Shinichi, who had some pain in his eyes. Drug trafficking was such a profitable business, but he was so stingy about buying two more pairs of chopsticks. His eyesight was not good. No wonder he was stabbed.
Maori Kogoro scratched his head a little embarrassedly: "This is a long story--"
Rob, who had been squeezed behind by the crowd, finally had a chance to show up. He said weakly: "Mr. Xinyi, long time no see."
"It's Rob. Long time no see. Just treat this place as your own home. You and Emi were the best friends back then. You - oh, look, they're here."
Rob turned around and was about to squat down to greet them, but the twins gave him a cold look: "Murderer!"
Conan and Hattori's eyes suddenly became sharp, and the two pairs of eyes looked at Robert like searchlights.
Target locked.
