Detective Conan: Knifeman? I'm a good citizen of Beihua

Chapter 239: The Windru Case 9 Years Ago

The bad guy Shirakawa Qiu opened the complaint interface and began to carefully prepare the content.

Because it is the interface of the complaint system, the system itself cannot see it, so it quietly waits for the host to complain without disturbing them.

After roughly explaining the matter and confirming that nothing was missed, Baichuan Qiu paused in his action of sending it directly, and his eyes fell on the twelve-digit code on the interface.

The system has no name, only a string of cold codes. Judging from the serial numbers of the codes, there are many experienced old systems before this small system.

Sometimes it is really speechless to meet such a rookie with so many loopholes.

But thinking about the system that the original owner encountered, Baichuan Qiu began to feel fortunate that he later encountered this naive system.

He thought about it, and finally wrote on it: "I am acting according to my discretion. I hope you won't punish it. As its host, I give it full marks."

Finally, watching the complaint interface disappear, Baichuan Qiu secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

"Host, are you ready?" came the system's voice.

"Well, how long will it take?"

"Hmm... I don't know about that either. Our timelines are different. It will probably take several months for headquarters to receive the news."

"...What do you mean by several months?"

After a moment of silence, the system added quietly: "It's the real few months in the Conan world."

Baichuan Qiu's eyes went dark.

If we convert it scientifically, wouldn’t it take several years?

Baichuan Qiu felt a little regretful that he gave the full score too early!

-

"Good morning, Shirakawa."

In the Poirot Café, Toru Amuro greeted Shirakawa Akane as usual.

"Good morning."

Shirakawa Qiu yawned lazily.

"Didn't you get enough rest?"

"Well, almost."

Toru Amuro kept working with his hands and soon made a cup of coffee for Shirakawa Akane.

"Thank you."

Baichuan Qiu took a sip and finally felt alive again.

"It seems that Shirakawa is very busy recently. Do you need any help?" asked Toru Amuro.

Shirakawa Akane: "No thanks, Amuro."

As for the small matter of killing someone, you can just do it yourself.

"By the way, this information is from news from nine years ago that I had someone collect." Amuro Toru handed over a USB drive. "That year... there were quite a lot of things. I don't know if it's been fully sorted out. Shirakawa can use it as a reference."

Baichuan Qiu was a little surprised: "So fast?"

Amuro Toru glanced out the window and whispered, "Lum seems to be very busy recently and there are no tasks, so I hurriedly sorted it out."

Baichuan Qiu understood: "Is that so."

It seems that Gin kept his promise and diverted Rum's attention away.

Seeing that Shirakawa Qiu had shifted all his attention to the USB drive, Amuro Toru hesitated for a moment, but continued, "Um... Did Shirakawa have any contact with the Nishizaki family?"

Baichuan Qiu was stunned for a moment, then calmly replied: "Yes, didn't Mr. Maori and I just participate in a murder case? It seems that the deceased is the illegitimate child of the Nishizaki family."

"But... Shirakawa has never been one to join in on the fun." Amuro Toru's voice was soft and calm. "I was quite surprised that he actually took the initiative to follow Mr. Mori out on a case that day."

"Maybe it's because that construction site is somehow related to Linlu Construction, so I wanted to go take a look."

"Is that all?"

Shirakawa Akane lowered his eyes, then looked up at Amuro Toru: "If not, would Furuya stop me?"

Amuro Toru was silent.

Baichuan Qiu didn't say anything either, just quietly drank the coffee in the cup.

By the time the coffee in the cup was finished, Shirakawa Qiu still hadn't received a reply.

But when Baichuanqiu turned and walked into the bar, lowering his head to rinse his cup, he heard an imperceptible sigh——

"If the other party really deserves to die, I won't stop him."

“Because we don’t conflict.”

The other party is not only Baichuan's enemy, but also their enemy.

He is not just Furuya Rei, he is also Amuro Toru and Bourbon.

——He is not a pushover.

Bai Chuanqiu chuckled: "I know."

……

In the evening, Baichuan Qiu opened the USB drive and began to carefully check the contents inside.

Fūya Rei organized it very carefully, even marking the important parts in red. Shirakawa Akane could see the key words almost at a glance and quickly understand the general content of the news.

This greatly facilitated his reading.

What concerned him most was naturally the most important and sensational news of the year—

Prime Minister Hitoshi Hase resigns

[Wendru bribery case exposed]

【Hase Jin commits suicide】

[Counting the people involved in the Wendrew case]

Nine years ago, the most sensational case was the Windru case.

Major companies across multiple sectors colluded with government officials to transfer unlisted shares at low prices, then resell them for a profit once the shares were listed. This case, involving numerous prominent politicians and their relatives and billions of dollars in assets, is the largest financial case in recent years.

Among them, the incumbent Hasegawa Hitoshi is naturally the most "eye-catching". He had just been rated as one of the greatest leaders, who promoted the economic development of Sakura and reformed many policies. As a result, he became a person that everyone hated. From stepping down to committing suicide, the interval between the two was less than a few days.

The parties and families related to him were also implicated. The once powerful family was decimated in a blink of an eye and withdrew from the historical stage of Sakura politics.

Nowadays, it is rare to see the Hase family active in political circles.

Of course, Baichuanqiu was not interested in these.

His eyes were fixed on one of the reports.

At that time, Hase Jin was suspended for investigation, and the Special Investigation Department was in charge of his case.

And coincidentally, after Hasegawa Hitoshi, the Nishizaki family successfully rose to prominence and became the next prime minister with an overwhelming advantage.

——Is there really no connection between them?

Baichuan Qiu slowly leaned back on the sofa behind him and let out a long breath.

Perhaps his true enemy has surfaced.

The Nishizaki family...a behemoth involved in both the political and business circles.

He exited the document and went directly to the search interface to begin a detailed investigation of the final verdict of the case.

What is jaw-dropping is that in this case that shocked the whole country, except for the deceased Hase Jin, the rest of the people involved received a maximum sentence of only five years, or even suspended sentences.

In other words, apart from the Hase family, almost no one else in this case received serious punishment.

Haha, it’s really interesting.

Shirakawa Qiu continued to search for information about the people involved in the case and found that although many of them were no longer active, most of those who were active were currently involved in industries related to Nishizaki.

After searching through everything he could on the Internet, Baichuan Qiu finally put down the mouse, raised his head with a dull look, and stared blankly at the ceiling.

"This is really..."

"A shockingly huge pit!"
