It turns out that even if there is a problem, Tokiwa Mio must make him okay. The guest invitations for the inauguration reception of the Twin Skyscrapers have been sent out one after another since a month ago. In the case of serial murders, a congressman even died in the building, and even the chief programmer of the company died, but it still can't be said that if you don't want to hold a reception, you can't hold it. Do you want to save face for the guests?

What's more, among the guests invited by Mio Tokiwa this time, there are many important people, not to mention the far ones, but simply the nearby ones. The Mori Club in the next city has sent their manager, Ms. Ozaki Momiji, this time to save face.

This manager whose specific position is unknown is actually one of the five major cadres of Portafia. Although most people don't know such a thing, how could Mio Tokiwa, who is the inviter, not know?

It was also because of such and such things that happened one after another, Mio Tokiwa gritted his teeth and went to the Mori Club to negotiate a security contract, intending to hire someone from the Mori Club to be in charge of the security activities on the day of the reception.

Of course Mori Ogai would not refuse. The security activities of the Suzuki consortium were quite successful before, allowing him to successfully clean up the industry under his name, and at the same time, he also made a wave in front of the big chaebol who really controls the lifeblood of Japan. presence.Through this wave of presence, the white and gray industries of Mori Club have flourished recently. Mr. Mori is very satisfied with this, and only feels that he has more small money to buy new dresses for Alice. up.

However, it was precisely because it was agreed that he would only be responsible for the security work on the day of the reception, so it was naturally impossible for Mori Ogai to know about the matter before that, and it was precisely because of this that he regretted it very much. Taller ones!He felt that he was at a big loss.

All in all, on the day of the reception, the people from the Mori Club came at noon very dedicatedly. They didn't expect that they and others just did an ordinary inspection as usual, and found a bunch of them in the venue. bomb.

Hirotsu Yanagi must say that when he saw so many bombs being found out of the venue, even he was shocked. If he hadn't also seen that Mio Tokiwa's face was not only blue, but even a little purple If he did, he would wonder if Mio Tokiwa planned to gather all the guests together and send them away in one wave.

"Ms. Tokiwa, do you need us to check both buildings?" Hirotsu Liulang looked at Tokiwa Mio and asked seriously, "Has the Tokiwa Consortium really not offended anyone who shouldn't be offended recently?"

Mio Tokiwa's expression was also ugly, "No, I'm sure, although there are many enemies of the Tokiwa Consortium in the business world, none of them have reached such a level."

There is absolutely no one who would want to use such extreme means to kill Tokiwa Mio, and maybe also want to wipe out everyone at the reception by the way.

You know, even Portafia would not do such a thing. This kind of approach of killing everyone in one go will make the organization that does this kind of behavior the enemy of the entire country.

Even the previous Boss of Portafia couldn't do such a frenzied thing.

Tokiwa Mio tried hard to think about who actually wanted to do such a crazy thing, and at the same time, after Hirotsu Yanagi's consent, she gave priority to calling the police.

After all, the group of people who came out in the name of Mori Club Security Company has no clear criminal record, as long as Guangjin Liulang doesn't show up.

Because such a big matter was involved, all members of the First Search Section of the Metropolitan Police Department were mobilized, and because of a series of itineraries that had been arranged before, the reception could not be cancelled, and the police could only go out in plain clothes.

Guangjin Liulang's previous proposal to inspect each floor one by one is very pertinent, but there is a very practical problem. They don't have enough time, and if the investigation work is handed over to the police, the police's explosive ordnance disposal team will be dispatched too much. There is a posture, so that if they are really allowed to come, they will definitely not be able to hide the situation.But if there is no investigation, what if someone is really so crazy and installs bombs in other places in the building?

Just when Tokiwa Mio was a little hesitant, Hirotsu Yanagi came with Mori Ogai's order. Mori Ogai's order was very simple, and asked Tokiwa Mio to directly ask for help from the armed detective agency who was also invited.

Mio Tokiwa immediately reacted, that's right, isn't the Armed Detective Agency a legendary detective who is said to be able to see through everything at a glance?

Taking advantage of two hours before the opening of the reception, Tokiwa Mio hurriedly called the Armed Detective Agency for help.

"Okay, I'll take Ranbu over there right away." Haruno Kirako received the phone call to the president's office. After Fukuzawa Yukichi was stunned for a moment, he immediately picked up his haori from the side and went out, "Ranno Let’s go, let’s go.”

"Hey? So early?" Edogawa Ranbu was a little strange, but he immediately reacted, "Has something happened to the twin skyscrapers?"

"Well, the Tokiwa Foundation hired Portafia's security personnel to take charge of the security activities tonight. As a result, Portafia's people found an astonishing number of bombs at the reception." The big cat Yuji said, "I'm sorry, Yuji, I can't take you tonight. Chuya, I'll ask you to come with us later."

Big Mao Yuji was a little disappointed, but he also knew that it would be more practical to take Zhongye's military responsibility instead of taking his own oil bottle, so he nodded vigorously.

"No problem..." Zhong Yuanzhong also said immediately, and then looked at his regular clothes with some embarrassment, "But going to that kind of reception, even if I wear casual clothes, I'm a bit too..."

"It's okay, the Tokiwa Foundation is ready." Fukuzawa Yukichi nodded and said.

"Even if we rush to Nishitama City at full speed now, at least it will take nearly 40 minutes. It will be too late to check after we really arrive." Edogawa Ranpo stood up from the chair, Yuji Big Cat prepared for him The dress was a white suit, and he casually draped the suit jacket over his shoulders, stood up and said, "President, contact Ms. Tokiwa directly, I remember that the last deceased person in the past two days seemed to be called Hara Jiaming, right? His position should be the main program designer of the Tokiwa Consortium, let Mr. Mori's people go directly to check this person's office and the server storage area of ​​the Tokiwa Consortium."

Fukuzawa Yukichi immediately called the other party back. Tokiwa Mio immediately passed the information to Hirotsu Yanagi and the police. The staff of the Mori Club hurriedly went to those places to search, and it turned out that it was really in these two places Find a bunch of massive bombs enough to blow up the entire floor into ruins.

Mio Tokiwa's face can no longer be described as blue, her face is so dark that only she knows, her building also hired a first-class security company to be responsible for the usual security work, but it turned out that so many people installed it. No one knows about the bomb?

The original security personnel in the twin skyscrapers have also become quite ugly. They obviously patrol the building on a daily basis. Why does such a thing happen?

"There is no need to explain, I will reconsider whether to continue to sign the contract later." Tokiwa Mio said in front of the security captain, no wonder she didn't give anyone face at all, it really can't give face here, the other party It's really too disqualified!

While the bombs were being disposed of over there in full swing, not long after, some guests had already arrived.

Mio Tokiwa forcibly calmed down. Most of the people were at the back of the building, and the front could at least keep a certain amount of face. Mio Tokiwa chose to continue to accompany the inspection at the back of the building with a secretary who knew the situation, and signaled to the staff Some areas were blocked to prevent people from approaching, and only the public relations manager, who didn't know what happened, led people to greet the guests first.

"Ms. Chang Pan, it seems that your main programmer has offended a very powerful organization." Liu Lang Guangjin checked the bomb that was dismantled by their people. The explosive was C4 imported from abroad. From the batch point of view, Even going out from Portafia on the Yokohama side.

Because it was a large arms deal, Portafia still controlled it very carefully. The amount of explosives installed in this building was almost half of the bombs in the previous deal.

It can be seen that those who do such a thing have made it clear that they must completely blow up the servers of the Viridian Consortium, and destroy them to such an extent that it is absolutely impossible to repair them.

"But don't worry, our people will definitely be able to settle the matter before Mr. Ozaki comes." Hirotsu Yanagi bowed lightly and said, "Please don't worry."

Only then did Mio Tokiwa heave a sigh of relief, she tried her best not to let herself cry, "This time, it's really thanks to all of you, I will give a generous gift to the Mori Club afterwards."

"That would be great." After Guangjin Liulang finished speaking to her, he left sideways before the police came to pay attention.

"Ms. Chang Pan, are you still unwilling to stop the reception even at this point?" Mu Mu Shisan walked over with great disapproval.

"But the fact is that there is no need to stop, right?" Tokiwa Mio said with a strong smile, "The danger has been lifted with the assistance of the security company's personnel and police officers, right?"

"However, the entire building has not been fully investigated yet. Only these are found. If there are other bombs, wouldn't it be very bad?" Mu Mo Shisan strongly disagreed with the continuation of the reception.

"I know too!" Tokiwa Mio's lips were almost bitten by her, "But..."

There were various murder incidents before, and the Changpan Consortium has been involved as a related person, and now there are such crazy bombers who want to destroy the two twin buildings. Put on their fearless posture, I'm afraid it will really get worse and worse in the future.

"Anyway, I will ask Mr. Edogawa Ranpo, a famous detective, to help me check again, so I don't need to worry about this." Mio Tokiwa forced a smile, "Mr. "

After finishing speaking, Tokiwa Mio left with a strong attitude, leaving Memu Shisan and the others staring at each other in blank dismay.

There were also explosives disposal personnel in plain clothes from the Metropolitan Police Department, but watching the security personnel of the Mori Club moving quickly and deftly while installing signal isolators and dismantling bombs, they also felt a little useless.

Kenji Hagiwara watched the people in front of him quickly dismantle bombs one after another, and couldn't help being curious. These people belong to the security company, right?How to defuse bombs is so proficient.

At this time, Tokiwa Mio's secretary hurried over again, "I'm really sorry, but just now, Mr. Edogawa said that we'd better go to the rooftop to check, there might be... "

Now the police are speechless, how negligent is the security of your building to be filled with bombs all over the building?Hagiwara Kenji casually picked up the bomb disposal tool in his hand, "Sorry, give me a signal isolator, let's go to the rooftop."

"Please use..." A security guard on the side handed over a set of tools.

After Hagiwara Kenji took the explosives disposal team to the rooftop, he soon found several bombs and gasoline barrels near the platform that was originally used to land the helicopter. Although these bombs were not powerful enough to destroy the platform, they cooperated with This amount of gasoline can definitely create a large fire, making the roof completely unusable.

While they were desperately dismantling the bomb, the black organization on the other side also noticed something abnormal. The outsiders of the organization in the Twin Towers had already heard the news that people from the Mori Club and the police were dismantling the bomb.

"Brother, Mio Tokiwa hired people from Portafia to be the security guard." Vodka said with an uneasy face, "When the people from Portafia checked the venue again, they found the bomb we had prepared."

"So?" Gin Jiu frowned displeased when he heard this, "Are you sure that the people from Portafia discovered it on their own initiative?"

"Well, that's what the peripheral members said." Vodka continued, "And they also found the bomb we placed on the server floor."

"Tsk!" Hearing this, Qin Jiu casually crushed out the cigarette that was still in his mouth just now, his face became very ugly.

"Brother, do you want to detonate the bomb immediately?" Vodka asked for instructions.

"It's useless..." Gin said affirmatively, "If he was from Portafia, he would definitely prepare props for signal isolation. It is precisely because he is in the same industry that he knows how to deal with those things."

Obviously, remote detonation is no longer possible.Gin unhappily motioned to the vodka car beside him, and while reporting the unexpected situation to the gentleman, he asked the people around him, "How did that woman who got in the way think of hiring someone from Portafia?"

"I don't know..." Vodka shook his head, "But I remember that Tokiwa Mio invited people from Portafia to her reception."

"Damn it, even so, Tokiwa Mio has no reason to hire another batch of portafia." Gin, who didn't think there was anything wrong with the recent events, said with a frown. Soon, he received a new message on his mobile phone , he glanced at it and then stepped on the accelerator, "Boss's order, let's wait until the reception is over and then figure out a solution, so as not to have a head-on conflict with Portafia."

"Shirley's matter can be put aside, but the servers of the Tokiwa Consortium must be cleaned up." Gin re-lit a cigarette and stuffed it into his mouth, "You must never spread the organization's information!"

"Yes, brother!" Vodka said immediately.

When the three members of the Armed Detective Agency came here, as Ranpo predicted, more than 40 minutes had passed. As soon as Ranpo arrived, he pointed to a man who looked like a guest and said: "Where are your people dismantling the bomb? Take me there quickly."

The one stopped by him happened to be Guangjin Liulang who came out to check the situation. Guangjin Liulang looked helplessly at the clothes he had changed. He can guarantee that even the policeman just now is unlikely to recognize him. , but the famous detective still recognized himself even if he didn't look directly at him.

"Mr. Ranpo, Mr. Fukuzawa, and Mr. Nakahara." Guangjin Liulang bowed to the three of them, "Please come with me, and Ms. Tokiwa also wants Mr. Ranpo to help her see if there is any room in the building. There's a bomb."

"Let me tell you, you should use your brains a little bit." Edogawa Ranpo felt a little helpless, "Since we all know that a bomb will be installed in this building, we should know some key points even if I don't need to mention them. Go and see it? For example, elevators, connecting bridges and other places, isn’t this common sense?”

"I'll arrange for someone to check right now!" Mumu Police Department said seriously.

Ranpo Edogawa waited for a while in the lounge of the building, and saw Mio Tokiwa who had already appeared at the reception, rushing over in a hurry. Her face was obviously haggard, but she didn't It was too obvious, and it was covered up with delicate makeup, so no one in the banquet hall noticed it, but this haggard expression was very obvious in Edogawa Ranpo's eyes.

After Tokiwa Mio arrived at the lounge, she immediately saluted Fukuzawa Yukichi, then turned her head and saluted Edogawa Luanxing, "This time I am really grateful for the help of the two of you, if it weren't for you, I'm afraid not to mention the reception, even our personal safety will be in great danger."

"Thank you very much!" Tokiwa Mio bowed deeply to several people.

"It doesn't have to be that." Fukuzawa Yukichi took half a step back and didn't fully accept the gift. He turned his head and said to Tokiwa Mio: "Instead of thanking me, it's more appropriate to thank everyone who went to the field to dismantle the bomb."

When Tokiwa Mio straightened up, she wiped the corners of her eyes with her hands, and then said with a smile: "That's a natural thing. If it weren't for everyone's assistance, I'm afraid there would be huge and incomparable troubles today."

"Okay, stop talking nonsense, and quickly give the information of that Hara Jiaming on your side to Ranpo-sama, and Ranpo-sama will go and see if there are other places where bombs may be installed." Edogawa Ranpo Unceremoniously reaching out to the other party for information.

Behind him, Zhongyuan Zhong also stood not far from him, ensuring that no matter where the attack came from, he would be intercepted immediately.

Mio Tokiwa coughed and called her secretary over. The secretary took out a document in a file bag and carefully handed it to a detective.

Edogawa casually flipped through the documents in his hand, and suddenly there was an expression of interest on his face. He read the documents in his hand again before returning them to the other party, and then he did not avoid any He directly raised his hand to call Tian Shan Hanadai, "Hanabuki, can you find a way to connect to the server of the Tokiwa Consortium?"

"Mr. Ranpo, you are asking me to do something illegal." Tian Shan Hanadai's weak voice came from the phone, "Without the permission of the president, I would not help you do such a thing."

"Cut..." Edogawa Ranpo couldn't help but snorted. Just as he was about to say something, Fukuzawa Yukichi took the phone away.

"Hanadai, it's nothing, I'm bothering you." After Fukuzawa Yukichi finished speaking, he hung up the phone, put the phone directly into his sleeve, and looked at Edogawa Ranbu with a very serious expression, "Ranbu step……"

"I know, I know." Edogawa Ranpo hurriedly explained, "Ya Ming joined an underground organization, and used the computers of the Tokiwa Consortium to intercept and store a lot of information. I am afraid that this explosion is the original The underground organization that Jia Ming belongs to has made a move to eliminate all situations that may cause the organization's information to leak."

As he spoke, he looked at Tokiwa Mio, "Auntie, you should be able to see how crazy the organization that directly blows up your new building in order to damage your company's server is. Right? So I didn’t say, you should quickly back up your server data, then hand over the original server to the police, and let professionals help you find out what’s in it.”

"I see, I'll get someone to do it right away." Hearing this, Mio Tokiwa almost fainted. The chief programmer of Yuan Jiaming was very harmful. Not only did he kill himself, but he almost implicated the entire Tokiwa consortium.And what kind of strange organization did he get into?How could she be so hard-core and generous that she wanted to blow up all the buildings she had worked so hard to build?This is too insane!

"Oh, that's right..." Edogawa Ranpo looked at her again, "The real culprit of the murders that have been raging recently is that old man, if you don't want to die, you'd better stay away from him. "

"I see, I am very grateful for the reminder from Detective Ranpo." If it had been a day earlier, no, even this morning, Tokiwa Mio might not have believed Edogawa Ranpo's words, but now she has gone through so much trouble Another terrible thing, how could Tokiwa Mio not take the other party's advice to heart?

This is a famous detective who can tell where the bomb is hidden even if he doesn't show up at the scene and doesn't even know the matter very well!

Old man, old man... It seems that the only old man around me is Mr. Kizukiminesui, a teacher of Japanese painting, right?

But, why did Teacher Ruyue Fengshui kill so many other people, and even wanted to kill herself?Did he really get so angry that he bought all his paintings and made a fortune?

For a moment, Tokiwa Mio's mood was extremely complicated.
