Chapter 1143: 1142 [Heiji Hattori is desperate] Ask for a monthly ticket*
The four of them quickly split into two.
Okiya Subaru and Maurilan went to the abandoned building. Conan quietly followed Jiang Xia.
Conan: "..." Speaking of which, he also felt that one of the "Ito" was a little weird. Since Jiang Xia also thinks so, is Hattori really in that family?
…
Jiang Xia returned to the way he came, with a clear goal to go to the female lawyer's house.
——When he was at the door just now, he smelled several groups of murderous aura, and it felt fluffy and felt good... and the lawyer's attic was so hidden, it shouldn't be seen by those who blocked him.
As I was thinking, I suddenly felt someone following behind me.
Jiang Xia looked back and found that it was Conan, so he didn't care too much.
Maurilan and Okiya Subaru are still a little troublesome, but Conan is completely okay. And according to the true high school student detective's ability to pull hatred, maybe with Conan around, the murderousness will increase...
…
a few minutes ago.
On the other side, Ito House.
Ito Misari sent off the detectives and his party, and returned to the house with the cat in his arms, heaving a sigh of relief.
Siam wriggled in her arms, Ito Misari touched the cat and put it on the ground: "Mom is still busy now, I'll play with you later."
While speaking, she followed the stairs to the second floor, found the hidden attic door on the ceiling, and pulled it forcefully.
A staircase descended silently.
Ito Misari followed it, climbed up to the attic, and halfway up, she suddenly felt an itch in her calf, something was passing by her, and she went straight to the top.
“!?”
Ito Misari was startled, looked at her murderously, and saw a cat sneaking into the house at some point.
The cat was completely black, with only four white paws. It quickly climbed to the top of the stairs, glanced into the attic with the probe, then slipped lightly into the attic, and quickly disappeared into the corner.
Ito Misari: "..." It turned out to be just a cat...
She breathed a sigh of relief. Even though the attic is relatively hidden, and it shouldn't let idle people wait...or idle cats, but Ito Misari also knows how hard it is to catch cats. If you make too much movement, it's not good.
Not to mention a mere cat, it won't hurt anything if you think about it. And that cat looks so cute...
After thinking for a moment, Misari Ito decided to ignore it and concentrate on the situation in front of her.
…
She climbed up to the attic, closed the door with her backhand, looked at the people in the attic, and slowly revealed a gloomy sneer.
——The attic is quite spacious as a whole.
But at this time, including Ito Misari, there were a full six people crowded inside, and it suddenly seemed extraordinarily depressing.
The six were apparently divided into two groups.
Among the victims, a middle-aged man fell to the ground, motionless, and looked like he was dead. The other two young high school students were sitting back to back on the ground, their hands tightly handcuffed together.
Beside them, two men with stern faces held guns and were in charge of guarding.
——A few hours ago, Hattori Heiji and Toyama and Ye followed the traces of Kusugawa Taro and found this place all the way. As soon as he entered the door, he was pointed at by a gun and pressed into the attic.
At this time, Toyama and Ye's clothes are still neat, but Hattori Heiji is too capable of drawing hatred, and he is a little disgraced.
Seeing that someone was going upstairs, Hattori Heiji gritted his teeth and stared at Misari Ito, as if he was very resentful of this kind of criminal who didn't talk about martial arts.
Ito Misari looked at him and laughed mockingly: "Oh, why did the handsome Kansai guy look like this just after I left for a while?"
Her little brother quickly explained: "When you were talking to those people in the yard just now, this kid actually wanted to call for help outside, so I could only punch him twice."
"Tsk tsk, it's really rough, look at this face, I'm afraid it will be swollen into a pig's head tomorrow. But..." Ito Misari touched Hattori Heiji's face, and said halfway as if pity, her tone suddenly sank, Turning to threats, "Whether there is a 'tomorrow' depends on your performance."
Hattori Heiji snorted coldly, looking a little unwilling.
Ito Misari has dealt with various clients all year round, and has a strong ability to recognize people. She looked at Hattori Heiji for a moment, and she understood it, showing a smug smile:
"Are you expecting that Tokyo detective to find you guys trapped here? It's a pity that Jiang Xia didn't suspect me. Originally, I wanted to see the legend of solving a case with my own eyes, but now it seems that it's just a boring tout from the media. That's it.
"Okay. Now the people who are in the way are gone, stop playing tricks. Hurry up and solve the puzzle for me."
Saying that, Misari Ito threw a piece of paper in front of Hattori Heiji.
The paper is a 7×7 square with various letters and numbers written in it, by Taro Kusukawa.
Ito Misari sat down on the middle-aged man's body, looked down at him, and said with disgust: "This **** Kusukawa will really look for trouble for me, leaving behind such a convoluted puzzle as a bank vault. The answer... fortunately, a detective brought it to the door by himself."
She pointed her gun at Hattori Heiji: "You detectives should be good at solving puzzles - tell me the answer before dawn tomorrow."
…
Ito Misari said it lightly, but when she was downstairs just now, when Jiang Xia was staring at her, for some reason, she always had a bad premonition, and felt that she had been exposed every moment.
"..." Fortunately, now it seems that she is thinking too much. He must have been misled by those unscrupulous media, thinking that Jiang Xia is really a powerful character...
Thinking of the situation just now, Ito Misari couldn't help but feel a little annoyed: if Taro Kusanagawa had pinned her evidence, how could she, a high-ranking senior lawyer, be afraid of a high school brat.
Ito Misari is indeed a lawyer with a good reputation who does not pursue legal fees.
But that doesn't mean she doesn't love money - on the contrary, she has her own way of making money. The bulk of Ito Misari's income is actually helping those big money evade taxes and settle other possible problems. The remaining commissions are just tools for her to gain reputation.
Relying on his ability and fame, Misari Ito's line of work has been smooth sailing.
However, when the spring breeze was complacent, Taro Kusukawa suddenly came to the door and said to her, "If you don't want those criminal evidences to be made public, wash your hands with gold and don't do those things again."
"Oh, how dare you negotiate with me about conditions and say that I should stop doing that line of work - in fact, you just want to blackmail me."
Ito Misari stood up and kicked the corpse: "I actually thought that if I stored the evidence in the bank vault and wrote the password as a puzzle, I would be able to escape... It's a pity that this guy can almost be forced to ask the question without being beaten. The answer to the mystery, he suddenly died.
"Fortunately, my luck has always been good - a detective who can solve puzzles happened to be sent to the door..."
