Conan: The Heart Thief

Hearing this, Boss Tatsumi's eyes lit up and he stood up from his chair. He ran towards Lin Xiao, grabbed Lin Xiao's hand and asked excitedly: "You are the famous high school detective!"

"I am indeed a high school detective." Lin Xiao answered calmly. He came here to get a free ticket. If Boss Tatsumi gave him the free ticket, he wouldn't mind saving his life.

"Hahaha, it's you!" Boss Tatsumi laughed heartily. "To be honest, I like detectives very much.

Because something happened twenty years ago..."

Boss Tatsumi didn't know that the doctor had already told Lin Xiao about it, so he recounted the story of how he was framed and rescued by Detective Meng twenty years ago.

After hearing Boss Tatsumi's retelling, Lin Xiao was basically sure of what was going on.

"By the way, Mr. Tatsumi, why don't you go to the party on the 38th floor?" Botu asked casually.

But the boss replied, "I was actually at the party on the third floor, but Manager Ohba gave me an idea. He told me to pretend to say goodbye to the employees, then take the elevator and hide in the office. Then I went upstairs to meet the manager, put on the mascot costume he prepared, and returned to the party as a mascot. Then I took off the mask in public to surprise the employees."

I think it’s not a surprise but a shock, right? Lin Xiao thought to himself.

It's the same in any company. When the boss is present at a dinner party, it will bring invisible pressure to the employees. Once the boss leaves, the employees will have a lot of fun. Now the boss has finally left, but he suddenly appeared at the party again, as if for a surprise inspection. It's strange that the employees can be surprised.

Moreover, Lin Xiao knew that in fact Boss Tatsumi had no chance to appear at the party again, because he had just arrived at the 38th floor by elevator, and the moment the elevator opened, he would be shot dead by Manager Ohba.

"Oh? What a good idea!" Bo Shi didn't know the inside story and still found it very interesting.

"I agreed to this because I thought it was interesting." Boss Tatsumi looked at his watch and exclaimed, "Ah! It's almost eight o'clock. I should go upstairs to meet with Manager Ohba. You guys should come with me?"

Before leaving the office, Boss Chen Mi actually took out several coupons from the drawer of his desk and gave them to Lin Xiao. They were free coupons and hospitality coupons for the Lookout Restaurant. It must be said that this boss was quite generous. He gave Lin Xiao valuable Lookout Restaurant coupons right after they met.

This time, they took the company's special elevator from the 24th floor to the 38th floor.

When Lin Xiao, Bo Ju and Tatsumi Taiji were slowly ascending in the elevator, a man and a woman were hugging each other in the corridor on the 38th floor. The lights in the corridor seemed to have been adjusted and deliberately set to be very dim, so that only the outlines of the people could be vaguely seen.

The man is Ohba Satoru, the manager of the game company, and the woman he is holding is Sakurako, the daughter of the boss Tatsumi. This manager is very capable. He actually hooked up with the chairman's only daughter, and perhaps that is why he was able to become the manager of the company.

Sakurako closed her eyes and reveled in the embrace of Manager Ohba. However, she didn't know that the right hand of the manager behind her had slowly raised up and held a gun, aiming at the elevator used only inside the company. Manager Ohba looked at his watch and saw that it was only a few seconds before eight o'clock. The boss who was always punctual should be coming out of the elevator soon.

The moment the elevator door was opened, that was the day Boss Tatsumi died.

Ohba was not afraid that the gunshot would be noticed by Sakurako, because the party scene had been arranged, and the fireworks would be set off at 8 o'clock, and the gunshot with the silencer would be covered by these sounds. Moreover, his right hand and the pistol were wrapped in a plastic bag, so the shell would not fall to the ground after firing. Afterwards, the police would not be able to find gun smoke reaction on him.

Today Taiji Tatsumi will definitely die!

The elevator door slowly opened. Although the corridor was dark, there was a light in the elevator. Therefore, the scene inside the elevator could be clearly seen from outside. Ohba Satoru was about to shoot, but when he saw the situation in the elevator, he was stunned.

In his original plan, only Boss Chen Yi was in the elevator, after all, it was an internal elevator for the company. But when the elevator door opened, he was surprised to see three people in the elevator.

How come there are three people?

The sudden change made Manager Ohba not know who to shoot.

When the elevator door opened, the three were about to leave when they saw a man and a woman hugging each other in the corridor. With the light from the elevator, they could see that the man was the manager of the elevator, and he was holding a gun in his hand and pointing it at the inside of the elevator.

This dangerous move frightened Boss Tatsumi and Agasa Hiroju.

Gun! He pointed a gun at us?

Lin Xiao was not surprised at all, he had already remembered the plot of the animation and knew in advance that this was a trap. But although he was not surprised in his heart, he had to show shock on his face.

Suddenly there was a "bang" sound. Sakurako, who was closing her eyes and immersed in love, was startled when she heard the sound.

Before she could understand what was happening, she felt a huge force separating herself from Manager Ohba, and then Manager Ohba was knocked to the ground by the black shadow. He let out a scream, and only then did Sakurako see clearly that a handsome boy had grabbed Ohba and pinned him to the ground.

"Ah!" She couldn't help but scream in fright.

"What, what's going on?" She asked in astonishment, and at the same time, she looked towards the elevator and found her father and an old man with a white beard sitting in the elevator. It was obvious from their expressions that they were still in shock.

The one who answered her was not Boss Chen Mi, but Lin Xiao.

"As soon as the elevator door opened, I saw this guy pointing a gun at us. Although I didn't know why, I knew it wouldn't be a good thing. So I just controlled him."

"Pointing a gun?" Sakurako was stunned for a moment, and looked at the captured Ohba again. Only then did she notice that the other party had a gun in his hand, and she was immediately shocked.

However, the gun was not held by Ohba, but hung on his hand. Because Ohba had a bag on his hand, the gun fell into the bag after it slipped out of his hand.

"Let me go, let me go quickly!" Dachang struggled desperately in Lin Xiao's hands. But it was of no avail. His strength was like that of a three-year-old child in front of Lin Xiao.

"You want to kill my dad? Why?" Sakurako asked Jushui Hengliu in disbelief. Her expression was extremely sad. Although there were three people in the elevator, Sakurako knew very well that Ohba's target must be her father.

At this time, Tatsumi Taiji had also climbed up in the elevator. His face was pale due to excessive shock, but he still couldn't hide his anger. He stared at Dachang who was caught by Lin Xiao. He gritted his teeth and said, "You really hate me!"

As expected? Sakurako didn't understand what this meant. Was there some grudge between her father and Ohba?

"You bastard, you killed my father. Who else should I hate if not you?" Ohba admitted it directly.

"Dad, what's going on?" Sakurako couldn't help but ask her father

"He's just being unreasonable!" Boss Tatsumi said indifferently, "More than 20 years ago, his father's company was taken over by me. Because I used normal business methods, his father couldn't do anything to me. In the end, his father became malicious and disguised it as a murder case to frame me. Fortunately, I cleared the suspicion with the help of a detective, and he hated me because of that."

Ohba was lying on the ground, laughing: "Haha... stop pretending. My father was cornered and chose to commit suicide, which was part of your plan a long time ago, right? Don't be so hypocritical."

"If that's the case, why should I keep you?" Boss Tatsumi asked back.

"Of course you feel guilty after killing my father." Tatsumi Taiji laughed.

"I am not a good person. I have used cruel means in business, but they were all upright means! The reason why I promoted you is because I am upright and have nothing to be ashamed of!"

Hearing such strong words from Tatsuya Taiji, Manager Ohba was dumbfounded and had no idea what to say.

Sakurako was beside him, her eyes tearing up. She kept wiping away her tears and asked Ohba, "Ohba, did you approach me just to find a chance to kill my father?"

"Haha... at this point there's nothing to hide. That's right. I'm just using you!" Taichang Wu laughed crazily, "I want you to have a taste of what it's like to lose your father."

"Wow, wow, wow..." Miss Sakurako burst into tears immediately.

Chapter 186 Mother-in-law's Request

Boss Chen Yi called the police, and the employees at the party on the 38th floor heard the news and ran over to learn about the situation. They couldn't believe it. Manager Taichang actually wanted to kill the chairman?

Not long after, Inspector Megure brought his men to the scene and arrested Taiba Satoru for attempted murder.

Looking back at the case, Megure couldn't help but sigh: "Alas. Tokyo can't be without high school detectives."

"Inspector, what are you talking about?" Takagi was a little confused.

Megure explained: "I was very surprised when I heard the details of the case just now. In fact, a similar case happened here 20 years ago. At that time, I was just a patrol. Coincidentally, the criminals targeted Boss Tatsumi. And today's criminal, Oba Satoru, is the son of the criminal in that case 20 years ago. It was also such a coincidence that a detective solved the matter on the spot."

"Oh? There is such a thing?" Gao Mu was very surprised after hearing it. "Who was that detective 20 years ago?"

"It's Kudo Yusaku."

"What? The world-renowned detective novelist?" Takagi was shocked.

Inspector Megure nodded and looked at Lin Xiao and said, "Twenty years ago, Yusaku was still a high school detective. Lin Xiao caught the criminal at the moment when the murder was about to happen, and he is also a high school detective."

The police took Ohba Satoru away, and since a murder had occurred at the party, the party could no longer be continued, so all the employees went back.

Miss Sakurako is still sad that Ohba Satoru used her, and Boss Tatsumi persuades his daughter: "Daughter, Ohba Satoru used you to kill your father. Are you still sad about losing him?"

"Of course I'm sad. I was taken advantage of by a bad guy and almost married him. How could I not be sad?" Miss Sakurako wiped her tears.

"Daughter, forget about him and find a new relationship." Boss Tatsumi pushed his daughter towards Lin Xiao, "I think this detective is very handsome. I admire him. You can try to date him."

"What a joke!" Miss Sakurako was startled and couldn't help but look at Lin Xiao. He was really handsome and breathtaking.

"Detective Lin, I only have this one daughter, and she's as pretty as a flower. Whoever marries her can inherit my game company..." Boss Tatsumi bewitched Lin Xiao.

"Boss Tatsumi, I'm still just a high school student..."

Lin Xiao was quite amused and helpless. As a detective with outstanding reputation, he was popular everywhere in the detective world.

"It's okay, Detective Lin. My daughter is willing to wait until you graduate, right, Sakurako."

"Dad... stop talking nonsense..." Sakurako lowered her head shyly, and didn't seem to have any intention of refusing.

"Then wait until I graduate..." Lin Xiao replied casually. Although Yingzi was indeed pretty, he was not so far from falling in love with every girl he met. Without a foundation of affection, there would be no fruit of love.

"Okay. It's a deal, Detective Lin." Boss Tatsumi made the decision right away.

Lin Xiao did not comment. He felt that it would take several decades for him to graduate from high school, so he did not take it seriously.

Dr. Agasa stood nearby with a look of envy on his face. Why didn't Boss Tatsumi entrust his precious daughter to him? He could obviously invent more fun games for the game company.

……

Lin Xiao returned to the 23rd floor and met up with the three girls. The three girls had already had dinner and were watching the night view of Tokyo from the observation deck.

"Sorry for keeping you waiting."

Lin Xiao spoke, and the three women looked at him at the same time.

"Why are you so slow? Did something happen?" As the wife of a former famous detective and the mother of a current famous detective, Yukiko is used to this.

"Yes. The boss of the game company was murdered by his employees. Fortunately, I stopped it in time." Lin Xiao explained.

"Xiaojun, you are awesome. Continue to sleep with your sister tonight." Yukiko found a random excuse and wanted to applaud Lin Xiao for his love. She felt uncomfortable if she didn't do it for a day.

Xiao Ai snorted and crossed her arms. She could imagine that Lin Xiao would be in the same room with Sister Yukiko again tonight. The strange thing was that Conan already knew about this, so why was he indifferent?

"Xiao Ai, what are you thinking about?"

"I think it's incredible that someone knew he was being cheated on, but he didn't care."

"Green Mother? Who?"

"Of course it's the famous detective Kudo Shinichi."

"Kudo Shinichi!"

Miyano Akemi felt her brain freeze. She had just started working as a maid at the Kudo family and knew nothing about it. It was not until she returned to the Kudo family that she realized the meaning of her sister's words.

Kudo Yukiko was almost unconcealed. She pulled Lin Xiao back to the room and started doing it passionately.

The sweet and charming music reached Miyano Akemi's ears, making her blush.

Ai hurried back to her room, put on some sleep-aid headphones and went to sleep. Miyano Akemi stood in the living room, at a loss as to what to do.

"Mrs. Kudo has both a husband and a son. Both her husband and son are famous. One is a great writer and the other is a famous detective. It's ok that they never come home, but don't they care about them?"

Out of curiosity, Akemi Miyano stood outside the bedroom door and listened to the bed. It was a very novel feeling that made her body feel something, and water was flowing.

……

someday.

Hibiki Eri received a divorce case commission. Originally, she was reluctant to take the case. Unexpectedly, the client went to the Japan Bar Association to report her, saying that she had no professional ethics and unreasonably rejected the client.

Generally speaking, as long as Hibiki Eri gives a reasonable explanation, she can reject the client, and reporting her is useless. The key is that she can't give a reasonable explanation. In addition, her 100% winning rate in litigation has long aroused the jealousy of her peers, so the Japan Bar Association will naturally not speak for her.
