There was a glimmer of surprise in Maori's eyes.

Chianti took advantage of the pain and confusion at this moment to break free from Maori's hands.

Her face was full of pain, but more of it was a crazy obsession.

Just as Maori was about to catch up with her, Chianti quickly took out a smoke bomb and tear gas bomb from his waist and threw them to the ground.

Suddenly, thick smoke and pungent gas filled the air, and the entire room was shrouded in thick smoke, making it almost pitch dark.

Maori subconsciously took a step back and tried to locate Chianti in the chaos, but the smoke and tear gas were too strong, hindering his vision and breathing.

Chianti took advantage of the chaos, gritted his teeth and endured the pain, escaping from the window in a panic.

While trying to disperse the smoke, Maori quickly rushed to the window, intending to continue the pursuit.

However, just as he was about to jump out of the window, a low gunshot was heard from a distance - Cohen pulled the trigger again, and a sniper bullet hit Maori's front hard, forcing him to dodge urgently.

Maori frowned. The smoke gradually dissipated. Maori stood in front of the window. In the distant night sky, only Chianti's hastily fleeing figure was left.

"It seems that it's time to establish my own organization."

Maori sighed and walked back towards the Rice Flower Garden Hotel.

……

Maori returned to the room from the window of the Rice Garden Hotel and gently pushed open the door. The room was still quiet.

After dawn, Maye slowly woke up from her bed, her tiredness from last night not yet completely gone.

She turned her head and saw Maoli leaning against the bed, holding a mobile phone in his hand, browsing something calmly.

Maya's face suddenly turned red with embarrassment, and she whispered, "Good morning, Master."

When Maoli heard her voice, he put down his phone, smiled, and patted her casually, motioning her to serve him.

Maya's cheeks were burning, but after last night's experience, she had almost completely obeyed Maori's instructions.

She took a deep breath, lowered her head and began to serve him.

After serving, Mao Li stood up and made a phone call.

After a while, there was a slight knock on the door, and a man in a black suit handed in a package and a bank card.

Mao Li took the package, turned around and handed it to Maya, smiling and motioning for her to open it.

Maya opened the package and found an exquisite maid outfit inside.

Her face blushed again, but at Maori's signal, she hesitated for a moment, and slowly put on the maid outfit in front of Maori.

After getting dressed, she stood in front of the mirror and looked at herself shyly.

Mao Li nodded with satisfaction and handed her the bank card. His tone was calm but commanding: "You can use the money in this card as you like. Your task is to form an intelligence organization and submit to me from now on."

Maya lowered her head to take the bank card and nodded in agreement. When she walked to the door, she couldn't help but look back and asked softly: "Master, is there any special metaphor for letting me wear this maid outfit?"

Mao Li smiled, with a hint of amusement in his eyes: "There is no metaphor, I just like to see you being shy, on purpose."

Maya's face turned even redder and she stamped her feet in shame and anger, but she didn't say anything else and turned and left the room.

As the door gently closed, Mao Li leaned back in his chair, a trace of deep thought flashed in his eyes. He knew that his own organization had finally taken the first step.

Chapter 4 Naoko was kidnapped (K)

PS: There is an error in the chapter, just refresh it~ I have no choice but to merge 4000 chapters.

Maori staggered back to the office. As soon as he opened the door, he saw Xiaolan running towards him anxiously and grabbing him.

"Dad! Something bad has happened! Naoko has been kidnapped!"

"Who?"

Maori frowned in confusion and tried to recall, but his mind came up blank.

It seems that there is no one named Naoko among the people he knows.

"She's Xiaolan's classmate! Takei Naoko! The daughter of the wealthy Takei Katsuhiko."

Conan stood aside and explained, "Just now, Inspector Megure couldn't reach you by phone, so he contacted the office."

Maori curled his lips. He was just playing with Maya, so of course he couldn't answer the call.

"The police have already been contacted, what else do you need me, a detective, to do?"

"That's because Mr. Takei knows that the father of his daughter's classmate is the famous detective Maori Kogoro."

Xiaolan's tone was full of pride, but soon, her face was full of worry, "Dad, no matter what, let's go and take a look first!"

"Go, go, go."

Mao Li nodded in agreement reluctantly, thinking that he had not had many points recently. Since he had the chance, it would be a good choice to solve a few more cases. After all, he had a lot of things he wanted to buy.

……

Maori brought Xiaolan and Conan to Katsuhiko Takei's villa.

As soon as I stepped through the door, I heard a fierce argument coming from inside. Inspector Megure was being scolded.

"I spent so much money in taxes! Are you policemen just here to eat and do nothing?"

Katsuhiko Takei roared angrily, his face full of rage.

Inspector Megure could only bow his head and nod yes repeatedly. Obviously, the police had not found any clues about the kidnapper so far, except for the vague message at the beginning.

Maori and his two companions walked into the villa and were greeted by a tall, short-haired, beautiful woman in a neat business suit.

She is Katsuhiko Takei's secretary, Akiko Hanai.

Hanai Akiko led the three Mori people into the spacious living room and said softly, "Mr. Takei, Mr. Mori is here."

Hearing this, Katsuhiko Takei immediately stopped scolding Inspector Megure and came forward with a look of surprise on his face.

"Mr. Maori! I've heard so much about you!"

He shook Maoli's hand warmly, his tone full of hope.

Then, he turned to look at Xiaolan with a smile on his face, "This lovely lady must be Xiaolan, right? Naoko is really taken care of by you at school!"

Katsuhiko Takei looks like a tough man who is intimidating without even getting angry, but at this moment, his attitude seems to be smooth and full of sophistication in social occasions.

Inspector Megure finally breathed a sigh of relief and took the opportunity to complain, "Brother Mori, why did you come just now?" But the sadness on his face was obviously relieved, as if he was full of anticipation for Mori's arrival.

"No... No, no... Naoko is the one who takes care of me at school."

In response to Katsuhiko Takei's words, Xiaolan quickly waved her hands and took a step back shyly.

"Hey, the little girl is really sensible."

Katsuhiko Takei sighed, with a hint of approval in his eyes.

He turned to look at Hanai Akiko, his tone suddenly became stern, "Hanai, what are you doing? Go and pour the tea!"

Hanai Akiko's face darkened slightly. Although she still maintained professional politeness, she was obviously touched inside.

She didn't say much, just nodded silently, turned around and left to prepare tea.

Maori and Conan looked at each other and tacitly realized that something was wrong with Hanai.

Conan frowned, feeling a little confused, while Maori looked at Hanai's back thoughtfully.

It seems that this seemingly diligent secretary is not as calm as she appears to be.

……

"This is the situation, Mr. Maori. Naoko disappeared this morning. This is all I received."

Katsuhiko Takei's face was gloomy as he handed a crumpled piece of paper to Maori.

Mao Li took it and looked at it. The contents on the paper were messy and the handwriting was sloppy, as if it was a prank.

He frowned slightly, looked up at Hanai Akiko who was serving tea to everyone, then turned to Takei Katsuhiko and asked in a deep voice: "Mr. Takei, are you sure this is not a prank?"

Katsuhiko Takei's face turned pale in an instant, as if he was enraged.

He suddenly raised his voice, his tone full of strong dissatisfaction and desire for control: "Prank?! Absolutely impossible!"

"Naoko is so outstanding that I have someone pick her up from school every day!"

"It's only at this time on the weekend that she has time to act alone!"

"Someone must have been jealous of her excellence and kidnapped her!"

There was an unquestionable determination in his words, as if he had absolute control over his daughter, which made it impossible for him to accept the possibility that this was just a joke.

Inspector Megure standing nearby could only explain in a low voice: "Actually... our police also suspect that this might be a prank."

He was obviously helpless about Takei Katsuhiko's stubbornness.

Maori and Inspector Megure looked at each other and exchanged helpless expressions.

At this moment, Takei Katsuhiko's cell phone suddenly rang. He picked up the phone impatiently, his tone still full of anger: "Who is it again!"

But the next moment, his expression suddenly changed, and his voice was filled with anxiety: "What do you want!?"

Mao Li immediately signaled him to turn on the speakerphone.

Although Katsuhiko Takei was angry, he still did it.

At the same time, Inspector Megure quickly instructed the police from the Technical Department to start tracking the phone signal.

A voice that was processed by a voice changer came from the other end of the phone, cold and threatening: "Prepare 500 million and put it in the abandoned factory by the river. I will release you when I get the money. But remember, you must not contact the police."

When Takei Katsuhiko heard this, he was so angry that he almost went crazy and roared, "Five hundred million? Why don't you go and rob it!"

"It depends on whether you think your daughter is more important or money is more important, Takei Katsuhiko."

The other party sneered and said this, then decisively hung up the phone.

"How about it?"

Mao Li quickly turned his head and looked at the technical police who were operating the operation.

The policeman looked solemn but also a little excited, and immediately responded: "The signal has been tracked! The address will be sent to everyone's mobile phone immediately!"

"Okay! Let's go now!"

Inspector Megure stood up, pressed his hat down with a serious expression, and said firmly: "It seems that this is really not a prank. The kidnappers must be brought to justice!"

The police rushed out immediately as if they were facing a great enemy. Conan followed closely behind them and rushed out without hesitation.

Seeing this, Xiaolan looked at Maori in confusion: "Dad, why don't you leave?"

With one hand in his pocket, Maori glanced indifferently at the hesitant Katsuhiko Takei and the woman standing next to him, Akiko Hanai, who had a complicated expression on her face.

"Nothing, let's go."

Maori smiled slightly, withdrew his gaze, and spoke softly to Xiaolan.

Before turning around, Mao Li turned back and said to Takei Katsuhiko: "Mr. Takei, we are going to the kidnappers. Please gather 500 million first!"

Katsuhiko Takei's face darkened, he gritted his teeth and managed to squeeze out a sentence: "I...I know!"

After Mao Li went out, he quickly called Terahara Mari, "Mari, prepare 500 million in cash and send it to the abandoned factory by the river immediately. I need to be prepared for any eventuality."

He hung up the phone, took Xiaolan and Conan, and followed the police to the river.

Along the way, although Xiaolan was a little nervous, she felt a little relieved when she saw Maori so calm.

Conan was observing silently from the side, feeling vaguely that there might be a more complicated conspiracy behind this kidnapping case.

After reaching the river, the kidnapper's phone rang again.

Takei Katsuhiko picked up the phone and suppressed his anxiety and asked, "The money is ready. Where are you?"

The kidnapper's voice was cold and unquestionable: "Don't worry, I'll let you see the goods first."

As soon as he finished speaking, a black van suddenly rushed out.

The car windows were blocked by heavy curtains, and the figures inside could be vaguely seen.
