Chapter 13 The Reason
"Dad! Not that!" Gu Jingzi broke free from his father, came to the butler of Aso, and reached out to protect him, "It's all my fault this time, it's not Mr. Aso's business!"
"What!?" Everyone present looked at Gu Jingzi at the same time.
"Please don't be angry with Mr. Aso! Because... because... the planner of the kidnapping this time... is me!!" Gu Jingzi shouted in shock.
"Jingzi, what are you talking about?" Gu Masao looked unbelievable.
"Since my mother passed away three years ago, my father has been busy with work and has no time to accompany me... I am so lonely alone... I just thought that if my father's company is on vacation, my father will have more time to accompany me."
"So... I asked Mr. Aso for help and asked him to help me perform this kidnapping case... and then let him ask you to close the company for one month..."
"Mr. Aso was strongly opposed, I kept asking him, so it was all my fault! If my father wanted to scold me, just scold me!"
No one expected that there was such a hidden secret in it. A little girl who was only ten years old would have such a mind.
"So that's it. The first kidnapping case was actually fabricated." Kogoro frowned. Only then did he realize that Butler Aso was really not an accomplice of the kidnapper.
Hearing this result, Summer's mood could not calm down for a long time. The reason why Gu Jingzi did this was because of the lack of care. Gu Masao's career was booming and he was busy with work every day, so he naturally couldn't spend more time with his daughter.
Although Gu Jingzi's approach is a bit extreme and his thoughts are immature, no matter what, this matter is over.
Tani Masao's face was calm, and there was no sign of joy, anger, sorrow, and happiness.
"Aso, although Akiko has been pleading for you, I still can't forgive you..."
Butler Aso felt guilty and lowered his head: "Master, I am wrong with this matter... If you have any punishment, just give me instructions..."
"Okay! Go and help me arrange a week-long trip from tomorrow!!"
"Oh?" Jingzi and Butler Aso were stunned at the same time.
"The location... is just booked in Australia that Jingzi has always wanted to go to! The number of people is of course the only ones, Jingzi and I!"
"dad!"
"Owner!!"
When Gu Zhengxiong heard that Gu Jingzi and Butler Aso were excited and had a big smile on their faces. However, before they could be happy for too long, Gu Zhengxiong's words suddenly changed.
"Huh? Wait a minute..." Gu Zhengxiong touched his chin and showed a thoughtful look, "I have a board of directors this week... there will be a shareholders' meeting next week... and the next week..."
"dad!!"
"Owner!!!"
The same words were said, but the tone of Gu Jingzi and Butler Aso had changed.
"Ha...haha..." Gu Zhengxiong said with apologetic expression on his face and said dryly, "Next time... I will definitely go next time..."
Looking at the three of them, Xia Ri, Kogoro and Xiaolan stood aside, with a slight smile on her face.
"No matter what, I've solved another case." Kogoro said proudly.
At this time, Xiaolan seemed to suddenly remember something.
"Oh, I'm sorry, Brother Xia Ri, I forgot to call the police!"
"It's okay, I'll just call now." Xia Ri took out his cell phone, called the police, and briefly told the matter.
As soon as he hung up the phone, Tani Masao took his daughter and walked to Kogoro.
"You can actually find the kidnapper first, Mr. Maori, you are so amazing!" Tani Masao said sincerely.
The case was solved, so naturally it saved 300 million yen in ransom. For Masao Tani, although this money was not a huge sum of money, it could be saved and his daughter returned safely. There was nothing better than this.
"Haha, wherever you are! It's just that I have rich experience!" Kogoro was so happy that he could see clearly in his throat.
Tani Masao looked at Summer again.
"Young man, you jumped in through the window and I heard Jingzi talk about fighting with the kidnappers." Gu Masao stretched out his right hand and held Xia Ri's hand tightly, "Thank you for saving Jingzi!!!"
"You are so polite." Xia Ri smiled heartily, "I just did what I should do. If you want to thank me, why don't you thank Uncle Kogoro."
Immediately, Xia Ri saw that Kogoro gave him a hint of praise.
It has to be said that the Japanese police are still very efficient.
After making a phone call on the summer day, it took only a few minutes for two police cars to park outside the school gate of Erqiao Middle School.
The school gate opened, and after more than ten seconds, five or six policemen walked into the school in a hurry and came straight to Xia Ri and others.
A policeman in the lead, short and fat, wearing a round hat and a decent suit, looked at everyone and asked, "Who is calling the police?"
Xia Ri was about to answer, but she didn't expect Kogoro to scream in surprise.
"Huh? Isn't this Officer Meguri??"
"This voice..." The short and fat police officer shone the flashlight on Kogoro's face, "It's indeed Maori... brother..."
After a night of struggle, it was already past four o'clock the next morning. The darkness before dawn was very low. People had to walk in front of them to see each other's appearance clearly.
"Ah haha..." Kogoro rubbed the back of his head, and a look of nostalgia appeared on his face. "It's such a coincidence that he actually met Officer Memu! It reminded me of the days when I followed the police officer to handle the case. It's really nostalgic..."
"Yes, it was thanks to your subordinate's blessing back then that the case became more and more difficult..." Police Officer Memu said quietly.
Looking at the big belly policeman, Xia Ri approached Xiaolan and asked softly in her ear: "I know Uncle Xiaowuro had been a policeman before. Could it be that he is the subordinate of this police officer?"
"That's right, my dad used to do things under Officer Meguro's hands." Xiaolan nodded.
Since he is an acquaintance, the matter is much easier to deal with. Kogoro brought the kidnapper to Officer Meguro, told the story of the matter, and exaggerated his deeds like adding fuel to the fire.
Now there is no need for Xia Ri to intervene. He crosses his fingers behind his head, looking at the police leisurely.
However, if it was a summer illusion, he always felt that among the police, there was a female policeman who had been hiding from his gaze, and his body seemed to be hiding behind other policemen intentionally or unintentionally.
Summer doesn't care too much about this.
This must be my own illusion! How could a policeman hide from me? It must be just a coincidence. Moreover, it is so dark, it is not impossible to see it wrong.
