The SUV stopped in front of Takeda's house, and several people looked at each other, not knowing who should knock on the door.
Natsukawa was invited by the two children, while Hattori was invited by an unidentified person from the Takeda family. One could not tell the truth, and the other did not know who the inviter was.
Their eyes all fell on Robert Taylor.
"I'll knock on the door."
Robert Taylor smiled slightly, "Three years ago, due to a landslide, I fell off a cliff with my car. It was Misa who saved me. I lived here for three months at that time. I know everyone in the Takeda family."
Robert Taylor explained and was about to go forward to open the door.
At the same time, the roar of a truck engine was heard from behind.
Everyone heard the sound and looked around.
"Looks like there's no need to knock on the door. This truck belongs to the Takeda family. It should be Uncle Yong who is back."
Rob Taylor came up to the van in a familiar manner.
However, the person who got out of the car made Robert Taylor's face freeze.
"hair......"
Robert Taylor opened his mouth and then closed it.
"Uncle Maori, Sister Xiaolan and Conan, aren't you on a business trip?" Aniya was surprised.
I had to go on a business trip this weekend. Could it be that the Takeda sisters finally found Conan behind my back?
"Sae and Emi are not reliable at all. Humph, I won't play with them anymore!"
Anya gritted her teeth secretly, but "When God wants to give a man a great responsibility, he must first make his heart and mind suffer", she must solve the case before Conan!
So, the little girl ran to Conan who had just gotten off the bus to ask for information: "Conan, who invited you here?"
The famous detective was obviously surprised that Aniya was here. He looked behind her and saw Natsukawa again. He moved his eyes back and found that Hattori Heiji was there too!
It seems that the Takeda family is indeed extraordinary.
In the car, he listened to the third son of the Takeda family, Takeda Yuzo, give a brief introduction to the family's situation. When he saw Natsukawa and Hattori here, he felt that the complexity of the matter might be beyond his expectations.
There is indeed something strange about the cause of death of Akio Negishi who died in the Takeda family three days ago!
"It's Mr. Takeda Shinichi, the head of the Takeda family."
Conan did not hide anything. This was his chance to get some information. He asked, "What's the reason for Uncle Natsukawa and Brother Hattori?"
"Uh..." Aniya was silent for a while, and finally decided not to hide it, "Father was invited by the Takeda sisters, and Brother Hattori received an anonymous letter."
"Is this so..."
Conan's expression suddenly darkened.
The situation was much worse than he had imagined. As a result, there were at least three people in the Takeda family with their own thoughts.
There are three people in this generation of the Takeda family, namely: Takeda Shinichi, Takeda Ryuji, and Takeda Yuzo.
Among them, Takeda Shinichi's wife and daughter died three years ago. Takeda Ryuji has a wife, Takeda Yoko, and a pair of twin daughters, Saye and Emi. The third child, Takeda Yuzo, is a single dog.
In addition, the three brothers have a living mother, and the family has a hired nanny to take care of their daily life.
Negishi, who died three days ago, was a good friend and business partner of Takeda Shinichi.
After communicating with Anya and Hattori, Conan gradually understood the situation.
Natsukawa's goal is to investigate the cause of death of Takeda Misa and her mother three years ago, Hattori is invited to prevent a possible recurrence of murders, and Mori is invited to investigate the true cause of death of Negishi Akio, who died in the Takeda family three days ago.
"It seems that this case is closely related to that warehouse."
Zhen Guanxi and Zhen Guandong had gathered together at some point, and they all looked towards the warehouse with serious faces.
The warehouse door was locked and the windows were closed, looking cramped and lonely under the setting sun.
Three people died there in the past three years.
Anya felt bored when she found she couldn't get a word in, so she whistled and walked in alone to look for the Takeda sisters.
Soon, the head of the Takeda family received the news and came out.
Seeing so many people coming, Takeda Shinichi frowned unconsciously, but quickly covered it up and pulled Mori Kogoro aside with a smile.
In addition, Ryuji Takeda introduced the situation of the Takeda family to everyone.
The author mainly introduces Akio Negishi who passed away three days ago.
The Takeda family is a puppet family, and Akiho Negishi is a collaborator of Shinichi Takeda, who specializes in finding channels to sell puppets.
Because of his existence, puppets made by Takeda Shinichi can be sold at a sky-high price of one million yen.
The other party's death obviously had a huge impact on the Takeda family's puppet business.
"No wonder he wanted to find Uncle Maori. It turned out that his source of income was cut off. I guess the head of the Takeda family hates the murderer to the core."
One million yen for a puppet?
Hattori Heiji knew that authentic puppet craftsmen were in high demand, but he didn't expect the price to be so horrible. One puppet cost one million yen, which is not cheaper than the price of gold!
At the same time, he began to suspect that the person who sent him the letter of commission was Shinichi Takeda.
After all, the parent who is in charge of the finances seems to be the most powerful person in the family.
After they chatted for a while, Robert Taylor said, "By the way, why didn't I see Misa come out? Is she not at home?"
Robert Taylor returned to Puppet Ridge with a clear purpose, which was to see Takeda Misa, whom he hadn't seen for three years.
The three months when he was injured and lost his memory were the most beautiful time of his life.
Misa Takeda is his angel, his light, and the woman he will never forget in his life.
He regretted leaving that year for three years. This time when he had the chance to return to Japan, he immediately put down the things at hand and came to Tottori Prefecture to meet the other party.
If possible, he would take Takeda Misa away and get married!
He still had some concerns three years ago, but three years later, when the Dragon King returned, he had enough confidence to protect his lover.
As soon as this question was asked, the expressions of all the people in the Takeda family froze. Even Takeda Shinichi, who was whispering with Mori Kogoro, turned around and gave him an ambiguous look.
Robert Taylor was not a fool. He realized that his words seemed to have changed the atmosphere, and he frowned immediately.
After a long silence, Takeda Yoko finally explained: "In fact, Misa died three years ago!"
“Dead…!!?”
Robert Taylor's pupils suddenly shrank, and he was stunned for several seconds and asked in disbelief: "But when I left, Misa was still fine, why...why did she die?"
Takeda Misa's voice, appearance and smile appeared in his mind like a revolving lantern. Deep in his memory, that pure land of spring flowers showed signs of collapse because of these words.
"She died just a few days after you left."
"Where is the suicide note? Did she leave a suicide note?" Robert Taylor grabbed Takeda Yoko's shoulders and shook her hard like a madman.
"How could she die? She was such a cheerful girl..."
Tears slowly fell from Robert's red eyes. He felt sad but also had a hint of hope, hoping that the other party was just playing an excessive joke on him.
"No."
Yoko Takeda frowned, but she knew the relationship between Robert Taylor and Misa, so she didn't say anything. She just patted the other's shoulder to comfort him after breaking free.
Xiachuan: ...
what happened?
What just happened didn’t seem fake!
However, in his impression, Robert was the murderer, and the death of Negishi a few days ago should also be his doing.
However, the other party's sadness at this moment and the shock of hearing the bad news did not seem fake at all!
Is it possible that Robert Taylor is actually an actor in the United States?
This idea was immediately rejected as soon as it came up.
He had been in Japan from the United States for a short time. There were actors with such superb acting skills, but there was definitely no one named Robert Taylor. He had never seen this face before, and there was no sign of disguise, so there was no possibility of a change of appearance.
So, the case...is wrong from the very beginning!
Rob Taylor is most likely not the murderer.
It is not difficult to confirm this.
Xia Chuan lowered his head, took out his cell phone and sent a message to Frank, asking him to find a man named Robert Taylor who would arrive in Neon within a week.
There aren't many foreigners coming to Japan, so by hacking into the visa system, you can lock down their arrival time by name and appearance.
If the other party arrived in Neon three days ago, it means that he is just acting and preparing to kill Takeda Shinichi. If not... then things will be interesting.
The murderer is likely to be someone else!
(Please, monthly ticket)
Chapter 294 The deceased remains the same, but the murderer has changed!
In the deep mountains and dense forests, a crescent moon hangs high above our heads.
The strong wind blew up the leaves and bushes, making a whimpering sound.
Spiders are silently weaving their hunting webs.
At a certain moment, a strong wind blew from somewhere, blowing up branches and fallen leaves, disturbing the spider webs.
There was a slight smell of alcohol in the wind. Looking in the direction of the wind, I saw the Takeda family with the lights on all night.
The Takeda family welcomed many guests after a long absence. Some of them were detectives, some were spies, some were children, and there was also an unidentified foreign radish.
The noisy sound makes people smile with relief unconsciously, but it makes animals stay away.
Kogoro Mori's voice sounded the most outrageous, and his laughter could be heard three miles away.
There is nothing more refreshing than drinking good wine in a place like this!
"What kind of sake is this? The mellow taste can definitely be ranked among the top three in my lifetime!" Maori Kogoro drank it wantonly, with blush all over his cheeks.
Next to them, Aniya, the Takeda sisters and Conan were sitting together.
The twins looked at Aniya with bitter faces as she ate the saury in big mouthfuls.
"Mom, why do we only have half a fish each?"
Takeda Yoko smiled bitterly: "Because there are five more guests than originally expected, there is nothing we can do about it. Mom can't do anything about it either."
"This one's for you." Xia Chuan picked up the saury and handed it over.
"Thank you, Uncle Xiachuan." The twins immediately agreed.
Children’s needs are actually very simple, and they can be happy all day long if you satisfy them a little.
On the other side, Robert Taylor was obviously in no mood to eat. He looked depressed and put down his chopsticks after eating a few bites.
"Mr. Yongsan, can you lend me your car? I want to visit Misa's grave."
Takeda Yuzo was stunned: "But the mountain road is difficult to drive on. Isn't it unsafe to drive at this time?"
"it does not matter."
Robert Taylor shook his head and smiled bitterly: "If I don't go to Misa's grave, I still can't believe that she has left me."
"It's good to go out and relax. There are many fireflies in Puppet Ridge at night. Maybe when you look at Misa, she will turn into a firefly and come back to see you." Takeda Yoko sighed. She also knew something about the relationship between Misa and Robert.
"Fireflies?" Xiaolan and Heye exclaimed in surprise.
One is from Osaka and the other is from Tokyo. Girls from these two cities rarely see fireflies, so they immediately became interested when they heard about it.
"Ania is going too!"
Anya suspects that Brother Carrot is the murderer and does not intend to let him go. If she follows closely, she might discover some details of the case that others don't know.
And she also wanted to see what fireflies were.
Of course, I didn’t just want to see fireflies!
"Then you should drive my SUV. There are a lot of mosquitoes in the mountains, and the front seat of the truck can't accommodate four people." Xia Chuan took out the key and handed it over.
If Rob Taylor wasn't the murderer, then it wouldn't hurt to have Aniya tag along.
And with Xiaolan and Kazuha here, there shouldn't be any problems.
After the four people left, the drinking continued until just after ten o'clock in the evening, and Kogoro Mori forgot about the Negishi case.
