Vol 20 Chapter 283: Accept bribes

"Today she received a threatening letter."

Mr. Kobayashi said: "Threatening her, if you report on News City today, you will kill her."

Xie Chen took a sip of the juice, and it seemed that what Aki Asano was looking for to talk to Kogoro Mouri was a threatening letter.

"Let’s watch the shooting situation of News City from this TV, sorry, I have other work to do, see you later."

Mr. Kobayashi opened the phone for them and left the lounge.

They are not interested in the news city. Kojima Motota said: "Aki sister just called Uncle Maori that phone call, is it just to threaten the letter?"

"It must be." Tsuburaya said with his chin, "Sister Aki must be very scared."

"Not really!" Yoshida Ayumi immediately retorted, "Sister Aki is not that kind of coward, Xie Chen, you think so too."

Xie Chen smiled bitterly, and said nothing.

He remembered that when Asano Aki was talking with people on his mobile phone, she didn't show any fear at all. Not only that, she looked like she was overjoyed when she received a special report.

From this point of view, that call could not be a threatening call, if the call was just a trap to lure Asano out...

Thinking of this, Xie Chen frowned slightly, but the pager rang.

"Sister Xiaolan called again?" Ayumi Yoshida asked.

Xie Chen took out the pager and looked at the number displayed on it and said, "No, it should be Sister Yaji, because only Sister Xiaolan and Sister Yaji know this pager number."

"So this is ah."

Afterwards, they left the lounge and called Asano Aki from the phone in the lobby.

Aki Asano’s voice came from the other end of the phone: "Hey, this is Aki Asano. I have something to go out now. Please..."

Xie Chen hung up the phone, Kojima Yuanta asked: "Xie Chen, why did you hang up."

Tsuburaya Mitsuhiko said, "Isn't the call made by sister Aki?"

Xie Chen said: "It's her home phone, but the answering machine is on."

Tsuburaya Mitsuhiko said: "It's really strange, since she is not at home, why would she keep her home phone."

Xie Chen nodded. He also felt that something was wrong. It might not be easy. The pager rang again. This time the number displayed was one to zero.

"One one zero?" The three children said in unison.

Xie Chen said lightly: "That's one and one zero."

Kojima Motota said, "But isn't 110 the number of the police station?"

Tsuburaya Mitsuhiko also said, "Why would the police call us?"

"Not really!" Yoshida Ayumi suddenly shouted, "It's Sister Aki, Sister Aki must have been taken away by the bad guys now, so she wants us to notify the police and let the police know about this."

Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya still didn't understand: "In this case, sister Aki can contact the police herself."

auzw.com Xie Chen shook his head slightly. He had no choice but to remind him that the child was a child, "If she can't speak at all now."

Only then did they understand that Aki Asano was tied into a zongzi and locked in a small black room.

"She was kidnapped..."

The pager made another beep, which shocked them. This time the number displayed was nine, one hundred and nine.

"Nine, one hundred and nine." Tsuburaya Mitsuhiko said, "This is the area code of Aki's home phone number."

Xie Chen said: "If you just rely on these messages, even if you call the police to report the case, they will not accept it."

Kojima Motota immediately came to his mind: "If the police can't help, then it's time for our juvenile detective team to come forward, right."

Xie Chen nodded. At present, there seems to be no other way. Let's take these children to fool around once.

He thought for a while, and said, "But if we only rely on these information, we won't know where Sister Aki is."

"That's right..."

Now this situation can only wait, waiting for new information to come.

So they went back to the lounge and continued to watch the news city report. On the TV, Tsukuma and Mei made up, smiling, and reporting sports news in an orderly manner.

Yoshida Ayumi lay on the table and said, "Sister Aki reported better."

The news had just ended, Xie Chen's pager rang, and they hurriedly moved in. The number displayed this time was 2003.

Kojima Motota said without even thinking about it, "I see, this number should be pronounced like Nioh, so Sister Aki must be right now where there is a statue of Nioh."

His idea was immediately rejected by Xie Chen, it was a nonsense, so he continued to wait.

They stayed in the rest room for the rest of the time. Starting from 7:30, a digital message would be sent after a while, and Xie Chen recorded them one by one.

In this way, until half past eight, there was a heavy rain outside.

Tsuburaya Mitsuhiko yawned, "I don't know what the messages I received after 7:20 mean."

Xie Chen leaned on the chair and did not speak. On the TV, Tsukuma and Mi were still broadcasting the news.

"Now I will broadcast the latest news for you. This time, due to the malfeasance case caused by coastal development, the Special Search Department of the Tokyo Metropolitan Prosecutor's Office has found that the politicians Mr. Marutani and Mr. Okubo and many bribery cases have very large Suspect."

"I see!" Tsuburaya Mitsuhiko suddenly stood up from his chair, "I know what Aki sister's messages mean."

"Is it true, Mitsuhiko." Kojima Motota said.

Tsuburaya Mitsuhiko picked up the blank paper that recorded his thoughts: "In fact, these messages represent the names of these politicians who have accepted bribes. Zero represents Maru, which is the first word of Marutani. Zero zero is big, which is Okubo's number one. Words."

"As for the ninety-six of zero-96, it is black, which means that Marutani is very dark. What Aki's sister wants to convey is to point out that the person who accepted the bribe was the person surnamed Marutani."

Ayumi Yoshida, who was about to fall asleep, came to his feet and stood up and asked, "What do you mean by 2003 and 5, 6 and 5?"

"Of course it is." Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya looked at the recording paper and said, "The account number he used to accept bribes at Ginza."

Xie Chen tapped his fingers on the desktop without speaking. This kind of reasoning seemed far-fetched. ..
