Rebirth of Conan as a Detective

Summer vacation is coming, Gao Cheng has not had time to prepare for the vacation plan after Hayami Reika's concert, and suddenly receives an invitation from the TV station.

Because it was just a very ordinary program, the appearance fee was not too much, but it was also one of his few extra money, and finally went to the TV station accompanied by Xiao Ai.

"The case of Toushen Forest this time is not just my fault, I'm just in charge of reasoning."

Gao Cheng sat in front of the camera with the host. After several experiences, he was already familiar with these things.

The host laughed and said, "Detective Kido has always been so modest, no matter how you put it, the case spanned five years... Did you meet any fans this time? I heard that some detective fans went to the Aoi House Hotel."

Gao Cheng's smile stiffened slightly.

Those who ran seemed to be fans of Uncle Mori...

As for his fans, I don't know if Hayami Reika counts.

After recording the show, Gao Cheng felt that his face was completely frozen from laughter. This show was the worst he had encountered, and he really wanted to give a bad review.

At any rate, I arranged for some fans to sign on the spot. Don't girls like the type of Uncle Maori these days?

No, Kudo Shinichi obviously has a lot of female fans, so how come he treats them differently?

In the lounge outside the studio, Huiyuan was wearing a baseball cap, dressed like a little boy, and his face was tightly covered for fear of being photographed by the TV station.

Although better than before, I no longer have nightmares, and I still like to hide myself when I go to public places.

In fact, the Black Organization seems to have done nothing during this time, but occasionally saw the news of the assassination and guessed whether the organization did it.

"Little friend," the two girls passed by the lounge and asked Chi Chi, "Is Detective Kido recording a show here? We want to get his autograph..."

"No," Haibara raised his eyelids, "he doesn't sign autographs for young girls."

"That's it."

Under Gao Cheng's astonished gaze, the two girls left in disappointment, without even noticing Gao Cheng who was standing in the corner.

"What's the situation?" Gao Cheng walked into the lounge in a daze, and happened to meet Hui Yuan's eyes.

After a moment of silence, Hui Yuan took the lead and said, "Is the program finished?"

"The recording is over," Gao Cheng pointed to the outside, and asked in a daze, "Well, the one just now was..."

"Detective Kido!" An urgent shout suddenly sounded from the aisle of the TV station building.

"Excuse me, is Detective Kido here?"

Gao Cheng poked his head out in doubt, and found a long-haired woman wearing glasses who was sweating profusely asking the staff to ask questions, and happened to be looking into the lounge.

"Excuse me, are you Detective Kido?" The woman walked towards Gao Cheng panting lightly. She had fair skin and a bit of intellectual beauty. She seemed to be engaged in secretarial work.

"I am," Gao Cheng said strangely, "Is there anything else? I just finished recording the show..."

"I...I'm Yasuoka from Dimu Media." The woman hurriedly walked, and grabbed Gao Cheng without thinking about it, "Please come with me, please!"

"Eh? What's the matter?"

Gao Cheng was at a loss, not knowing what Dysaki Media was...

"I'm sorry," the woman said anxiously.

"Because the other party is looking for you, please save Lingxiang and my husband!"

"Lingxiang?"

Dygi Media Company is not too far away from the TV station but not too close. Gao Cheng and Hui Yuan got into the women's car and finally figured out what was going on halfway.

Reika Hayamizu, who was about to hold a concert in a few days, was kidnapped at this juncture together with her manager Hoyuki Yasuka. It happened last night.

Arriving at Dygi Media, Gao Cheng went upstairs with the woman, thinking of Sui Lingxiang's smile when they parted at the Aoi House Hotel, his heart felt tense.

"You are Mr. Kido, right? I'm Secretary Obuchizawa Hidesei... I saw this in the mailbox of the office this morning. There was a letter from a person named 'Puppet'..."

The long-awaited Secretary of Dygi Media hurriedly handed over a letter to Gao Cheng.

"He asked us to pay Reika and Mr. Yasuoka's ransom, 100 million yen."

Gao Cheng got serious, took the letter silently, and found that there was a photo besides the letter paper.

In the photo, Reika Hayami and a man were leaning against the window with their hands and feet bound, Reika Hayami still had a look of horror on her face.

"The one next to him is the manager, Mr. Yasuoka." The secretary explained.

"It's my husband," the woman who brought Gao Cheng over cried, "Detective Chenghu, please save my husband!"

Gao Cheng held the photo and murmured, "But why me? You seem to think that only I can save people..."

"Because it's written in the letter," the secretary helped flip open the letter, "it said that the city detectives were appointed to take the ransom."

"Appoint me?"

Gao Cheng's eyes tightened slightly.

The people he and Reika Hayami knew knew very little, and even if they knew, why would they choose him as an ordinary friend?

And the other party obviously knows that he is a famous detective...

Is this a challenge for him? Because his relationship involved Hayami Reika?

Gao Cheng glanced over the concerned people in the office, and the secretary at the side belatedly introduced a rather worried aunt with short hair and a woman with long hair in a ponytail, and said, "This is our president Kasaki Ye Zi...here is Lingxiang's personal makeup artist Nakai Narumi..."

Then he introduced the woman with glasses and said, "This is Mr. Yasuoka's wife, Manami Yasuoka."

Manami Yasuoka who was introduced choked up and begged: "Please, Detective Kido, please follow what the other party said, and save my husband!"

President Dygi also wiped away his tears, and bowed to Gao Cheng: "Baozhi is my nephew, the only relative, and Lingxiang, both of them are my closest relatives... Detective Kido, please be sure Help, and I'll offer a nice thank you fee afterwards."

Gao Cheng tightened his palms, nodded and said, "I will try my best."

Even if these people don't say that he will work hard to rescue Hayami Reika, the key is that after the ransom is paid in the kidnapping case, the hostages are easily torn apart...

Looking at the photo again, through the reflection of the glass, you can clearly see a clown pretending to be taking pictures. The location is a log cabin, and there are forests and the rising sun outside the window.

"Detective Kido, all the money is ready." President Kabuki asked the secretary to hand over a black suitcase to Gao Cheng, which was filled with stacks of ten thousand banknotes, and each bundle was tied with a seal. The 100 million cash bill looks impressive.

"I'll leave it to you next time."

"it is good……"

Gao Cheng put away the photo, glanced at the banknotes from the corner of his eye, his pupils suddenly dilated slightly, and stopped the secretary who was about to close the suitcase.

"What, what's wrong?" the secretary asked in surprise.

"Wait a moment."

Gao Cheng opened the suitcase in a deep voice, and carefully searched for the slight incongruity he felt just now. After a pause, he took out a stack of banknotes and looked through them, only to find that only the topmost banknotes were real banknotes, and the rest were newspapers.

"There are black fingerprints on the seal. Is this because of the ink that was stained when the newspaper was cut?" Gao Cheng held a stack of banknote-shaped newspapers and looked at President Kasaki, "President Kasaki, if you bother me with this , both Reika and Mr. Yasuoka will be in danger."

"What?" The staff present were shocked, "President, what are you doing?!"

President Kabagi was silent for a while, and said expressionlessly: "Don't you think 100 million is too much?"

"President!"

"No, no, no! Even if Lingxiang is an artist who makes more money in our company, I won't spend so much money for her!"

President Kabagi waved his hands resolutely, as if there was nothing to discuss.

"What are you talking about, President?!" Yasuoka Manami said desperately, "Didn't you also say that Lingxiang would be your adopted daughter? Besides, no matter how you say it, Hoyuki is your only nephew..."

"It's two different things."

Gao Cheng silently watched the quarrel between Manami Yasuoka and President Kabuki.

Judging from the appearance of these people, it is unlikely that 100 million ransom will be paid, but 100 million is not a small sum for him. Even though he has received a lot of commissions during this period, the firm's book funds are only about 10 million , not counting the maintenance costs of the Chenghu mansion and the normal expenses of the office.

It seems that only Yuanzi's family can easily come up with this huge sum of money among the people who are familiar with her...

I really don't understand this company. With Lingxiang's development momentum, is it difficult to earn 100 million?
