Daily Spy Life in the Detective Conan World

Chapter 630 Mountain Chase
"Did you find anything left behind by Dragon Tail Constance?" Yuri was quite curious about this.

Yui Uehara took out what she had found.

a letter.

The content is long, but the general idea is that one night a week ago, Ryūo Kōji and Torada Yoshirō were organizing data in a cave when an uninvited guest suddenly appeared, claiming that the treasure they were looking for had been found a hundred years ago and then turned into the Twilight Villa.

The heirs of the two powerful families naturally knew about what happened at the Twilight Villa, and their faces turned very ugly upon hearing this.

Anyone would be devastated to learn that the treasure they had been searching for for six years had already been obtained a hundred years ago.

That was the state of mind for Koji Ryūo and Yoshirō Torada at the time.

Just when they were in despair and pain, the visitor explained his purpose.

This group of people were naturally the robbers of the gold heist. They assured the two men that if they provided a helicopter as a means of transportation for the robbery, they would give them one-third of the stolen gold.

The fact that the Twilight Villa was worth hundreds of billions was not a secret in Nagano Prefecture's high-society circles. Hundreds of billions, a third of that, coupled with their previous disappointment and setback, led the two to agree immediately.

After that, they began to meet and communicate many times, all in the forest at night.

They never even considered that simply providing helicopters could yield so many.

They then began rehearsing their route in helicopters at night until the actual robbery.

"Judging from the fact that no gold was found in the caves of the two families, they were tricked. Those people not only did not give them gold, but also killed them."

Yuri summarized it this way.

"Unfortunately, it says here that those who cooperated with them kept their faces covered from beginning to end, and the robbers on the day of the operation also wore all sorts of masks, so nothing can be confirmed."

Yamato Kansuke sighed in exasperation.

"Yes and no," said Morofushi Takaaki.

"What do you mean?" Yamato Kansuke asked.

"The secret that Inspector Yamato investigated for six years and still couldn't find out, yet that person could tell it accurately. Isn't that the problem?"

Conan's lips curled into an uncontrollable smile, and his glasses began to reflect light inexplicably.

All the clues point to the fact that someone from the Torada or Ryuo family is pulling the strings behind the scenes in this case, and they are only a screen away from the truth. The culprit is elusive!

"What do you mean?" Yamato Kansuke was still confused.

Even the composed Morofushi Takaaki was somewhat shocked by his teammate's foolishness, and helplessly explained, "The only people who could know they were doing this are from the two families. The target is already quite obvious, isn't it?"

"I see." Yamato Kansuke suddenly realized.

However, he was still a little upset. Why not just say it directly instead of wasting time going around in circles?

“Then let’s investigate this person’s identity as well. He should be a villager from the neighborhood.” Yuri handed his phone to Yamato Kansuke, which showed a photo of the deceased.

"No need for all that trouble." Xia Chuan handed the phone directly to Hanji and Ayaka.

Despite the unbelievable fact, the two recognized the man in the photo, whose mouth was oozing black blood, as a villager from the village.

"West Temple Fights People?"

The two said in unison.

Xia Chuan asked, "Among your two families, is there anyone who is familiar with this person?"

Linghua shook her head, indicating that she did not know.

“That’s right, Xici Douren is a hunter in the village. My mother likes to eat wild game, and occasionally he will bring some game he hunts in the mountains to sell to her.”

Shigeji Torada knew what these words meant: his mother would be labeled as suspicious, and these ruthless government agencies would certainly not let her go.

But now his last psychological defenses have been broken.

The deaths of the two men, and the contents of the letter, were like a black curtain enveloping him. Perhaps only this group of seemingly radical police officers could save their lives.

More importantly, this wasn't his biological mother, just his stepmother. "Oh no, something might have happened."

As soon as Torada Shigeji explained, Yamato Kansuke took out his phone to contact the police at the Ryūo family's residence, but the call could not be connected.

Everyone knows what this means.

The group rushed back to Longwei's house. Just one intersection away, they saw a car whizzing by.

The car's accelerator roared, and in the instant they passed each other, Uehara Yui, the driver, even caught a glimpse of the sinister smile on the lips of the person in the car.

"It's her, Torada Tatsue! She was the one driving just now!"

"You guys go check the situation, we're going after them!"

Because there were many people, two cars were used, and Xia Chuan happened to be driving his own car.

When they communicated via walkie-talkie, Xia Chuan had already completed his drift.

On the narrow forest path, he was able to drift, a skill that left Yuri completely stunned.

Conan is a bit better; he had ridden in Natsukawa's car before, so he was mentally prepared.

Dust and gravel billowed up, and leaves and branches snapped one by one. The GTR that caused this scene was practically flooring the accelerator.

"Faster!"

Yuri squeezed from the back seat to the passenger seat, while Conan was held in his hand and could not break free.

"Uncle Yuri, relax, you're going to strangle me, and this is a forest, Uncle Natsukawa, don't worry."

Neither of them answered, and then came an even more intense push against their backs.

Even though Conan had experience piloting airplanes, he felt breathless at this moment and unconsciously gripped Yuri's arm tightly.

Soon, the car in front was right in front of them. Xia Chuan naturally didn't hesitate at all. The GTR turned into a bumper car and slammed into the back of the car in front.

The GTR was modified with unusual materials at the front and rear, so it not only survived the impact but also damaged the rear cargo area of ​​the car in front.

"Give it two more hits and this Teana will fall apart!"

Yuri tossed Conan behind him, pulled out his pistol, and released the safety.

"Uncle Yuri, don't shoot! If the man dies, we'll never find that gold again!"

"I know."

Yuri calmly replied, leaning out of the car window and aiming at the tires.

At that moment, Xia Chuan suddenly reached out and pulled Yuri back.

"What are you doing?"

Yuri was completely bewildered.

At the same time, on the narrow roadside, a black sedan emerged from a haystack like a hungry wolf, its front end slamming into the side of the GTR.

If Yuri were still leaning forward, he would have been killed instantly by that blow. No matter how strong his resistance to impact is, he couldn't withstand the collision of a car.

Still shaken and unable to express his gratitude, Yuri locked onto the vehicle in the instant it nearly went out of control and fired two shots.

The window of the black car was shattered, and the driver was shot between the eyebrows.

Without the side effects, the GTR finally returned to normal.

In just a short while, the car in front had already put a distance between them and the car in front.

Fortunately, the mountain roads are simple, and Xia Chuan and his group had come in through this road before, so they had some impression of the road conditions.
