Detective Conan: The System Takes Me to Zero's World
Chapter 408: Dark Web Communications Causing Turmoil: Conspiracy Outside the Sushi Restaurant and Ev
Ripples appeared in the air, and Shushu jumped out from the waves, jumped onto Kudo Yuki's shoulder, and rubbed her cheek affectionately.
Kudo Yuki looked calm as she gently stroked Shu Shu's fur, with a gentle look in her eyes.
Toru Amuro glanced over, his lips slightly raised with a teasing look, obviously he had already gotten used to these strange scenes around Kudo Yuki.
Kudo Yuki silently said in her heart: [Sign in.]
"Ding, congratulations to Xiaoxue for signing in successfully today and getting 300 mall points and a case revealing card.
The current mall points are 5500, and the system space contains: healing elixir, winery status information, winery location distribution map, and case revelation card. Please continue to sign in every day, Xiaoxue."
Kudo Yuki's eyes moved slightly, and her fingertips lightly touched the system panel. She felt that this case-revealing card prop might play an unexpected role at a critical moment.
"Ding, the prop has been used."
Kensuke Wakita put the sushi into a takeout box, looking up from time to time at everyone in the store.
After confirming that Officer Megure had no intention of leaving, he immediately put on his signature friendly smile, walked quickly to Officer Megure's side, bowed slightly, and said apologetically: "Officer Megure, the store just received an urgent order, I have to deliver it quickly, I'm really sorry."
Officer Megure frowned slightly, put down the case materials in his hand, and waved his hand: "Okay, go ahead, don't delay the guests."
"Don't worry, I'll get there as soon as possible!" Wakita Kensuke grinned, revealing his big white teeth, and quickly picked up the takeaway box and left the sushi restaurant.
As soon as he stepped out of the store, the smile on Wakita Kensuke's face disappeared instantly, replaced by a gloomy look.
He hurriedly turned into a quiet alley. The rusty iron gate at the entrance creaked in the wind. There was no one around. Only the occasional breeze blew up a few yellow leaves and gently brushed the dry grass in the corner.
Kensuke Wakita leaned against the wall and looked around vigilantly. After making sure that there was no one around, he took out his cell phone from his pocket.
After the call was connected, a deep voice soon came from the other end: "Hello?"
Wakita Kensuke muttered viciously: "That idiot Morishima Hayato was caught by the police. He is more trouble than help!"
He paused for a moment, a stern look flashing in his eyes: "Listen, clean up all the important transaction records that the 'old man' told you about, don't leave a single byte! If the police get a whiff of it, you know the consequences!"
There was a panicked response from the other end of the phone: "But... Sir, some records are hidden too deep. I'm afraid that if they are all cleared in a short period of time..."
"Stop talking nonsense!" Wakita Kensuke suddenly raised his voice, and the kind smile on his face disappeared in an instant, replaced by a ferocious look, "Do your best to help me! If you mess up, you will not be left out of the organization's 'special care'! That important event must not have any mistakes!"
"Yes... yes, we will act immediately."
"One more thing." Wakita Kensuke's tone became even colder. "Notify those restless guys to behave themselves and stop making trouble. We'll make a long-term plan after this storm has passed. If anyone dares to commit a crime in defiance of the rules, we'll deal with them according to the organization's rules!"
He hung up the phone, put the phone back in his pocket, and put that smiling expression back on his face, as if the fierce look just now had never appeared.
Kensuke Wakita sorted out the sushi in his hands, walked out of the alley with brisk steps, and headed towards the delivery destination, just like an ordinary sushi restaurant employee, rushing to complete his work, without any sign that he had just had a secret phone call.
The sun had shifted to the west at some point, dyeing the streets dim.
The pedestrians in front of Iroha Sushi Restaurant were still walking hurriedly, and no one noticed the increasingly heavy undercurrent in the air.
The sudden sound of hurried footsteps in the distance broke the apparent calm - Officer Chiba's face flushed, his forehead was covered with sweat, the collar of his uniform was soaked with sweat, and he rushed into the store in a hurry.
He supported his hands on his knees, his chest heaving violently, and breathing heavily, obviously having run all the way here.
"Inspector... Officer Megure!" Officer Chiba tried to calm his breathing, "There's new information!"
Inspector Megure's frown tightened even more. He turned around, his expression full of anxiety and expectation: "Chiba, what's going on?"
Officer Chiba took a deep breath and said anxiously: "Officer Megure! When we were investigating the communication records of Hayato Morishima, we found some anomalies!
A week before the incident, Hayato Morishima frequently contacted an anonymous account. We tracked this account and found that it used a highly encrypted network proxy, which made it difficult to locate directly.
Officer Megure frowned even deeper, his eyes revealing anxiety and confusion: "So what was the final discovery?"
Officer Chiba clenched the notebook in his hand and spoke quickly: "The technical department has just cracked it. The anonymous account is in a nearby office building! The owner of this account is likely to be an accomplice of Hayato Morishima!"
Amuro Toru crossed his arms and narrowed his eyes as he analyzed, "It's hard for Morishima Hayato to plan such a thorough operation alone. There must be someone else assisting him behind the scenes."
Conan stroked the frame of his glasses with his fingertips, a cold light flashed in his eyes: "Maybe this accomplice is the mastermind of the whole plan, and Morishima Hayato is just an executor who was pushed to the front. We have to go to the office building quickly, maybe we can find more key evidence."
Kudo Yuki stroked the case-revealing card hidden in her sleeve. The card suddenly felt burning, and a fine blue light appeared on its surface, vibrating slightly.
Alarm bells rang in her heart, and she immediately added: "Moreover, this accomplice is likely to know the secrets in the file and the motives behind Morishima Hayato. If we catch him, we may be able to uncover the truth of the whole incident."
Kaito Kidd put his hands in his pockets, with a cynical smile on his face, and said jokingly: "Yo~ It seems that this good show is not over yet, and there are new characters coming. I am really looking forward to what new discoveries will be made."
Officer Megure immediately turned around and ordered the surrounding police officers: "Everyone listen up, leave some people to guard Morishima Hayato and Nagayama Yuu, and the rest of you follow me to the office building! You must be careful and don't let the suspect escape!"
The police officers responded "yes" in unison and took quick action.
Some police officers stayed behind to keep Morishima Hayato and Ryuyama Yu closely guarded, while the other group followed Inspector Megure and quickly rushed towards the office building.
Kudo Yuki and her group of five also followed the police team, preparing to go to the office building together.
Kaito Kidd asked quietly: "Sister Xue, this matter is getting more and more interesting. Who do you think this accomplice could be? Is it related to what we investigated before?"
Kudo Yuki replied softly: "I'm not sure, but my intuition tells me that this matter is not that simple. Let's go and take a look at the situation first, maybe we can find some unexpected clues."
Amuro Toru took a step closer to her without leaving any trace, and his low voice was filled with subtle concern: "No matter what the situation is, you must be careful. I have a feeling that this accomplice may be dangerous."
Kudo Yuki turned to look at Amuro Toru and smiled: "Aren't you here with me? I have nothing to be afraid of."
The streets were crowded with cars, and occasionally a few pedestrians walked by with their heads down. The gloomy sky seemed to cast a layer of oppressive veil over the office building, and the glass curtain wall reflected dim light.
The group soon arrived in front of the office building.
Officer Megure looked up at the cold light reflected from the glass curtain wall of the office building and ordered through the intercom: "Investigate in groups, and focus on companies that have dealings with Hayato Morishima!"
When I pushed open the glass door of the office building, a gust of cold air mixed with the smell of ink and disinfectant hit me in the face, making me shiver.
The smooth marble floor was like a mirror, clearly reflecting everyone's tense and serious figures.
The police officers nodded and quickly followed Officer Megure's instructions, dividing into several groups and hurried into the office building to begin an intense and orderly search.
Kudo Yuki and others followed a group of police officers into the building.
As I stepped into the elevator, an old atmosphere filled the narrow cabin. The mirrors on the four walls were covered with dense fingerprints, as if countless pairs of eyes were watching everything.
The emergency light in the corner emitted a faint red light, and as the elevator rose, it flickered regularly like a weakly beating heart.
The elevator slowly rose, and the metal cables rubbed against the pulleys, making a subtle and unsettling sound. The lights in the elevator also flickered, casting complex, interlaced shadows on everyone's faces.
Conan whispered, "I hope we can find the accomplice as soon as possible and uncover the truth of this case."
The elevator door slowly opened, and the police officers quickly dispersed and began to search the floors carefully.
Kudo Yuki and others also followed behind, paying attention to everything going on around them.
A police officer shouted: "There's something going on here!"
The ceiling light in the corridor suddenly exploded, and glass fragments fell like rain.
Everyone rushed to the half-open office, stepping on the mess on the floor. From inside the room came the rustling sound of papers and the hum of the overloaded printer.
Officer Megure kicked the door open, pointed his gun at the room and shouted, "Don't move! Police!"
The reflection of Uesugi Hirokazu shook violently on the wall. He held down the shredder switch with his right hand and madly tapped the keyboard with his left hand. The printer spit out documents torn in half, and the shredded paper flew around the room like snowflakes.
"Are you the owner of the anonymous account that is in contact with Hayato Morishima?" Inspector Megure approached, stepping on the documents all over the floor, and crushing the falling USB flash drive with his leather boots.
Uesugi Yukazu's Adam's apple rolled up and down: "I... I don't know what you are talking about."
His trembling fingers suddenly pressed the Enter key on the keyboard, and the file deletion progress bar on the computer screen began to jump wildly.
Conan saw the other party's right hand protecting the documents unnaturally, and immediately pulled the corner of Officer Megure's clothes: "Uncle is destroying evidence! Those documents contain..."
"Bang!" Yukazu Uesugi knocked over the chair, grabbed the paperweight on the table and smashed it against the window.
The moment spider web cracks appeared on the tempered glass, Amuro Toru pressed his knee against the back of the man's neck and pressed him down on the broken glass. As the metal handcuffs snapped shut, the printer suddenly emitted thick smoke and stopped working.
"Want to run? It's not that easy."
Inspector Megure walked forward, snatched the document from Uesugi Hirokazu's hand, and examined it carefully.
Kudo Yuki also leaned over and saw that the document recorded the detailed plan of Hayato Morishima and this man, including how to plan to steal the documents, how to use the documents to gain benefits, and even mentioned a larger business conspiracy involving competition and conflicts of interest among multiple companies.
The moment Kudo Yuki touched the document, the case revelation card on her sleeve suddenly emitted a blue light, and a line of text appeared in front of her:
Note the hidden mark in the lower right corner of the third page of the document.
She turned the file to the corresponding position and found a subtle special symbol.
"It seems that we have finally found the key evidence." Kudo Yuki frowned slightly, her tone slightly serious, "Behind this case is a carefully planned business conspiracy, and Morishima Hayato and this man are just pawns in it."
Amuro Toru's eyes flashed with worry: "Not only that, some of the people and companies mentioned in these documents seem to be inextricably linked to the organization we have been investigating. This case may be just the tip of the iceberg."
Kaito Kidd put his hands behind his back, paced back and forth, and raised the corners of his mouth: "It's getting more and more interesting. It seems that we are involved in a big trouble this time. However, this is also the challenge I like."
Officer Megure's face was gloomy. He handed the document to the police officer beside him and said loudly: "Take this man back and interrogate him thoroughly! We must get to the bottom of the whole case!"
The officers took the man into custody.
Everyone left the office building and returned to the police station.
Along the way, everyone was silent, each thinking about the complex relationship behind this case.
After arriving at the police station, the interrogation began immediately. Faced with irrefutable evidence, Uesugi Hirokazu finally confessed everything.
It turned out that he was the boss of a business consulting company and planned the theft in order to obtain Asano Chinatsu's business documents in order to undermine the development of her company and give his own company an advantage over the competition.
And Morishima Hayato was just a pawn used by them. He was eager to be promoted in the company, and was lured into this conspiracy by this man who offered him help.
After the interrogation, Inspector Megure sat down on the chair tiredly and rubbed his temples: "This case has finally come to an end."
In the Poirot Café, the guests were still in shock after the chaos and their conversations were filled with uneasiness.
With Enomoto Azusa's comfort, they gradually calmed down. Some of them stirred their coffee, while others read books and drank.
Azusa Enomoto shuttled between the tables and chairs, holding a tray in her hand, serving steaming coffee to the guests one by one. She always had a sweet smile on her face and asked the guests in a soft voice whether they needed any sugar packets or creamer.
At the same time, the kitchen was filled with the pungent smell of detergent and food residue.
Officer Gao Mu was crouching over the trash can, his wet uniform clinging to his back, beads of sweat dripping down his cheeks to the ground. He frowned, rummaging through the trash quickly with both hands, carefully examining each item he picked up.
The two police officers beside him were also busy. One of them squatted down and felt the bottom of the trash can; the other opened the cabinets one by one and checked carefully.
