Chapter 9 Case-in-case

"Thank you, Mr. Kogoro." Tani Masao nodded, then looked at the butler Aso on the ground, "Aso, tell me quickly! Where did you hide the Crystal?"

"Little... the lady is in a nearby hotel." Butler Aso said in panic.

"Since that's the case, let's take Miss Jingzi back!" Kogoro said excitedly. The commission for this case is quite high. Now that the case has been settled, as long as you take Jingzi back, it will be done!

As for who solved the case, what does it matter? Summer is not an outsider anyway, as long as you have a lot of money to earn, it will be fine!

Several people were escorting Butler Aso and just about to leave to the hotel to pick up Akatsuki, but Tani Masao's phone rang first.

"Hey, who?"

After solving the case, Gu Zhengxiong was in a good mood. He answered the phone, but when the other party opened his mouth, his mood sinks into the abyss again.

"Are you ready for the 300 million yen ransom?"

"What!!? Who are you?" Tani Masao asked in disbelief.

"What are you talking about? Didn't I call you just now?" The person on the other end of the phone spoke sarcastically, "I'm the one who kidnapped your daughter..."

Because the few people present were very close to each other, and the yard was silent, and the needle could be heard. In addition, did the person on the other end of the phone deliberately lower his voice, so that everyone present could hear the man's voice clearly.

"How is it possible? The kidnapper has not been..."

Everyone's eyes were once again focused on Butler Aso, and Xia Ri also frowned. There was a second kidnapper? Did something happen to this case?

"Damn it! You really have accomplices!" Kogoro shouted.

"No! Really no!" Butler Aso quickly shook his head and said in a sincere tone, "Please believe me, I am really the only one who kidnapped the lady!"

"Dad! Help!!"

On the other end of the phone, the little girl's panicked scream came, and the sound came into Gu Zhengxiong's ears, which made him feel heartbroken, because he had already heard it. This sound was the voice of his precious daughter, Gu Jingzi!

"Jing... Jingzi!?"

"Hehehe...I don't have much patience..." The kidnapper continued to threaten, "If I don't prepare 300 million yen quickly, I will kill this little ghost..."

"Please, no!" Gu Zhengxiong shouted hurriedly, "I will find a way to raise all the money. Please don't hurt Jingzi!"

Xia Ri squinted her eyes and looked at Butler Aso, and found that although he looked flustered, his tone was full of earnestness, not like he was lying.

Moreover, Butler Aso had no reason to lie. Now that he had been seen through, even if he continued to protect his accomplices, there would be no benefit.

At this time, Kogoro quietly approached Gu Masao and whispered in his ear: "Mr. Gu, find more topics to talk to him and find a way to find out his location..."

Unexpectedly, because he was too close to the phone, Kogoro's words aroused the kidnappers' alertness.

"Who? Who is there in your place? You must have called the police? I warn you, if you dare to do anything randomly, your daughter will die..."

"Dad, I'm in the school warehouse!! I don't know where, but there is a big chimney outside the window!"

Gu Jingzi's voice suddenly came from the other side of the phone. She was smart, after hearing Kogoro's voice, she was not afraid, but instead took the initiative to tell the clues she saw and shouted out.

"You little devil! Don't talk nonsense..."

Jingzi's scream came from the other end of the phone. Obviously, the kidnapper was angry and beat Jingzi.

"Jingzi!!!" Imagining the experience of her daughter, Gu Zhengxiong's heart was bleeding.

At this time, through these conversations, Xia Ri had figured it out. It seemed that after Butler Aso kidnapped Gu Jingzi again, Gu Jingzi was kidnapped for the second time.

What had been solved had an accident. This was really an unlucky child...

"Okay, I'll contact you later!! Get the money ready!" the kidnapper said viciously, "Remember, if you dare to call the police, your daughter's life will be gone!"

Doudou...

Before Gu Masao could say something, the kidnapper had already hung up the phone. Listening to the busy voice, Gu Masao stood in his hands coldly and at a loss.

"Mr. Gu, it's important to prepare both sides now." Xia Ri pondered, "Since the kidnappers already want a ransom, I think on the one hand, you will raise funds, and on the other hand, Uncle Kogoro and I will help you find the places where the kidnappers may be hiding."

"There is no problem with the funds, but... but can you really find the location of the kidnapper?" Gu Masao sighed.

Xia Ri did not answer, but looked at Kogoro.

"Don't worry, Mr. Tani." Kogoro nodded, "We will do our best, and isn't the purpose of your visit to me for this?"

"Okay, I'll leave it to you here, I'll raise funds." Since the kidnappers threatened not to call the police, for the sake of the safety of their beloved daughter, Gu Zhengxiong had no choice but to do so.

However, at this time, an unexpected scene happened.

Conan didn't know how he did it, but suddenly rode a big dog, like riding a horse, without saying hello to Xia Ri, Kogoro and others, and actually ran out of the house and disappeared into the distance like the wind.

"Conan!?" Xiaolan exclaimed.

Summer:...

Looking at Conan's back, Summer was speechless for a long time.

This is really a naughty child. In addition to Gu Jingzi's unlucky child, aren't children so worry-free now?

"Don't worry about that little devil!" Seeing that Xiaolan wanted to chase her out, Xiaogoro hurriedly stopped her, "We have more important things to do now!"

"But..." Xiaolan hesitated.

"Nothing is true." Xia Ri shook his head and said to Xiaolan, "Maybe the child knows what he is doing, and he didn't ride a...well...dog? If a dog protects him, nothing will go wrong."

Conan is just a small episode, and Summer and Kogoro return to the main topic.

"Jingko Gu just said that she was in a school warehouse with a large chimney outside the window. Do you know which school is next to the chimney?" Kogoro asked Xia Ri and Xiaolan.

"I rarely come here, so..." Xiaolan shook her head.

I haven't returned to Tokyo for four years in summer. I can't remember the buildings and streets here very clearly, but this did not affect him.

Under the gaze of Kogoro and Xiaolan, Xia Ri took out his phone and silently opened a map app.
