Chapter 169: The Number of Sophists

Monday, July 15.

In the afternoon, in a warehouse at Mihuacho Wharf.

Hearing Mr. Wuju said that he wanted to light the fire by himself, Ms. Huajing asked in surprise, "What did you say?"

"As long as you promise me two things, I can set fire to myself," Mr. Wuju said calmly, "just like your father."

"Two things, one is letting Naoko go," Miss Huai asked, "What is the other?"

Mr. Takeju said: "Hanai, you have been by my side these years, you should have learned a lot."

Ms. Huajing asked in surprise, "Do you want to..."

"That's right," said Mr. Wu Ju, "to take charge of my company and continue to operate it..."

"You're delusional," Ms. Huajing said with a smile, "This kind of harmful company..."

"Why don't you want to understand? If the company goes bankrupt, you won't be able to take care of Naoko." Mr. Wuju said, "And that's what your father thought back then."

"My father?" Ms. Huajing asked in surprise, "What did you say?"

Mr. Wuju said: "Your father came to me not to continue his company, but for you."

"For me?" Ms. Huajing asked back.

"Yes, he made two requests, one is to let me take you in and take care of you," said Mr. Wuju, "the other is to let me help you start at the right time and build a company you like to make a living relying on you." Then he asked, "I know your father did this with one thought in mind, that is, if my daughter is not suitable, I might hand over the company to you, now you hand over my company Taking over the past, won't this fulfill your father's wish?"

Miss Huajing shouted: "No, no, you lied to me!"

"I didn't lie to you. After that incident, I told you that you were my daughter, so those who had enmity with your family didn't look for you. I also sent someone to look for you, but you disappeared I thought you lived in another place, so I didn't make any effort to find you." Mr. Wuju said, "I don't think your father told you about this beforehand, so that you don't have to think about his last Ideas, you can live the life you want to live according to your own ideas."

"No, it's not true." Ms. Huajing yelled, and then said, "By the way, you wouldn't be so kind, so you're lying to me."

"It's true that I didn't have such good intentions, but this matter is indeed true. Your father managed to impress me on the condition that he set fire to this place." Mr. Wu Ju said, "Because in this way, I not only saved a fortune Demolition and construction costs, and I got a large amount of insurance money, and your father also helped me set a trap, which made me a lot of money, and also annexed several small companies because of it." Then he said with some emotion, "You My father is really powerful, and I have thought about it many times, and every time I feel that if I am not lucky, I will be the one who died."

"No, no, why, why didn't you stop him when you knew it," Miss Huajing cried, "Why is that?"

"Because your father clearly understands that after his company goes bankrupt, he will definitely die, and you will live a life that is worse than death. Your mother should also know this, so she also went with your father," said Mr. Wuju Said, "As for bringing a child, I think it is to be more real, and at the same time, it is also to allow those who survive to live better.

Otherwise, if one wants revenge and one wants to start a new life, that money will instead become a source of disaster. "

"Then what am I? Why not Masaku?" Ms. Hanai knelt on the ground and cried, "You must know that he is only three years old!"

"Because he was only three years old, your father chose you, because you were an adult at that time, and you could manage the money yourself." Mr. Wuju said, "And Changsaku is a boy, your father knows whether I am Will adopt him, if so, for seventeen years, your father must be afraid that Changsaku's guardian will use up the money, and even kill Changsaku because of it."

"No," Miss Hanai cried, holding her head, "Dad, Mom, Masaku..."

Not long after, seeing Ms. Hanai crying, Mr. Takei said, "Okay, don't cry, Hanai, if you agree to my two requests, take care of my daughter Naoko, and take over my company, give me the lighter. Then he asked, "By the way, before I leave, can you let me have a look at Naoko?"

"Take a look?" Wiping the tears off her face, Ms. Huajing asked, "Do you think this is possible?" Then she said, "You can do it yourself." As she spoke, she threw a lighter over.

At this time, Conan suddenly came out from the side and caught the lighter flying in the air. Yamazaki and Mori also stood out from the side of Mr. Takei and Ms. Hanai respectively. They had already climbed in through the window. There was an ambush in the shadow not far from the two of them.

"Stop it, Ms. Hanai," Mori said, "Do you want Naoko to have the same thoughts as you? For Naoko, Mr. Takei is still her father after all. For the pain of losing a loved one, I think Miss Hanai, you know best."

Conan said: "The wrong is repaid, I don't think your brother will want you to do this."...

Outside the warehouse, Mei Daizi asked Lan who was climbing the window to enter the warehouse: "This word, Conan, do you understand what it means?"

Lan smiled and said, "Maybe, probably, I know."...

Inside the warehouse, Ms. Huajing, who was kneeling on the ground, asked in surprise, "Mr. Maori, why are you here?"

"Yes," said Mr. Wuju who was kneeling on the ground, "Didn't I ask you to go back?"

"Now that we know the location, we couldn't help but come here," Mao Li said with a smile, "Besides, I still have a letter of entrustment left by Ms. Naoko here, so it's only natural to intervene in this matter."

"Hanai, I don't seem to have to die now," Mr. Takei asked, "Can you let Naoko go?" Then Yamazaki helped him up.

Ms. Hanai said, "I never said that I abducted Naoko."

"Stop making unnecessary sophistry, Ms. Huajing, the kidnapper is you." Maori said, "Yesterday, the person who drove the van into the water and dived away was you. Conan said that he saw your wrist last night, There are traces of wearing a diving watch."

"Conan?" Miss Huai asked, "Did you see it when I hugged you?"

"Hey, hey." Conan laughed dryly.

"Masaku," Miss Hanai said, "I thought of you as my younger brother at the time, and he also liked to crawl around."

"Ha." Mei Daizi and Lan who just came in laughed together, Mei Daizi smiled and said: "This kid is already seven years old." Then He Lan helped Miss Huajing up.

Conan muttered, "You don't need to remind me."

Ms. Huajing said to Mr. Wuju again: "It seems that your way of doing things still has some reason."

Mori said, "Miss Hanai, please release Miss Naoko."

Yamazaki said with a smile: "Uncle Maori, we seem to have been tricked."

"What?" Molly asked.

"Although there is a strong smell of gasoline in this warehouse, Mr. Takei's body," Yamazaki said, rubbing his fingers, "the light here is not good, and I didn't distinguish it carefully. I didn't see it. It should be water."

"What?" Ms. Huajing and Mo Li were taken aback.

Mao Li and Conan touched Mr. Takeju's body, and Mao Li said, "It really is water."

Poured some liquid from the gasoline tank onto her hands, Miss Huai said, "It's really water."

Mr. Wuju asked: "What's going on here?"

"Naoko, it must be Naoko," Miss Hanai said, and then called, "Naoko, where are you?"

Mao Li asked, "Miss Huai, did you really not abduct Naoko?"

"No," Miss Huai said, "She went to participate in club activities."

At this time, Ms. Huajing's mobile phone rang. Miss Huajing took it out and looked, and was surprised that the number was actually from Wuju House.

Mr. Wuju smiled and said, "Naoko, it must be Naoko."

As expected, the call was from Naoko. She didn't see anyone when she returned home, and when she learned about her abduction from the servant, she called Ms. Huajing.

"Sister Huai, what happened?" Naoko asked, "Why do you say I was kidnapped?"

"Well, let's talk about this when we go back." Miss Huai asked, "By the way, Naoko, why is your voice so strange? Do you have a cold?"

"Well, it's a bit uncomfortable," Naoko asked, "Who are you talking about?"

"Uncomfortable?" Miss Huajing said, "We'll go back right away."...

Wuju house.

Mr. Wuju, Ms. Huajing and Mao Li saw Wuju Naoko. Her hairstyle and clothes were the same as those in the photos sent by the gangsters. However, her eyes were red and swollen, and her nose was red.

"What's wrong with you?" Mr. Wu Ju asked when we met, "Someone bullied you, have you ever cried?"

"No," said Naoko, "I accidentally caught my eye."

Mei Daizi asked, "Are your club activities over?"

"I didn't go," Naoko said, "I've been staying at the Good Mood Hotel for the past few days."

"What?" Everyone was taken aback.

"What's so surprising?" Naoko asked.

Maori said, "Because you were abducted by Ms. Huajing."

"I was kidnapped by Sister Huajing? This is so funny." Naoko asked, "Excuse me, are you..."

"Me? I'm Kogoro Mori," said Mori, "This is your entrustment letter." He said and handed over the entrustment letter.

"So uncle, you are Lan's father, that famous detective." After receiving the letter and looking at it, Naoko said, "This is indeed written by me, just in case, I wrote it a long time ago. "

Ms. Hanai said, "Naoko, I really..."

"Father, Sister Hanai, Detective Mori, Ran-san, Yamazaki-san, President Meidaiko," Naoko said, "By the way, and this little brother, let's stop standing at the door, let's go in and talk." He pulled Ms. Hanai into the room.

In the reception room.

After sitting down, Mr. Takei and the five of them were waiting for Ms. Hanai to speak, but she didn't speak any more.

Not long after, Mao Li asked, "Miss Huai, can you tell me what happened?"

"There is nothing to say." Miss Huajing said.

"It was you who lied about kidnapping Miss Naoko, demanded a ransom from Mr. Takeu, wanted Mr. Takeu's company to go bankrupt because of this, and you wanted to set fire to Mr. Takeu." Maori said, "We have heard and seen all this with our own eyes. of."

"Mr. Mori, please don't talk nonsense. I have never asked for a ransom from President Wuju. Setting fire is even more nonsense. I just poured a little water on President Wuju," Miss Huajing said. "Comparatively speaking, My mouth is still bleeding, it should be because I have been hurt more."

"What?" Mao Li was taken aback, and quickly asked, "Didn't you admit that you were the gangster yesterday?"

"Please think about it, I never said that," Hanai-san said, "I just admitted that I wore that diving watch not long ago."

Maori asked again: "Then why are you in that warehouse?"

"I hid in President Wuju's trunk," said Ms. Huajing. "The reason is that I was afraid that President Wuju would annoy the gangsters with fake money and stop him."

"Today is Monday, and there is still no one in that warehouse. It must be rented by you. You only need to check it to find out." Mao Li said, "The gangster used a voice-changing device. You didn't bring it out later, so it is still there." In that warehouse."

Ms. Huajing said, "How do I know these things?"

Mao Li asked: "At one o'clock yesterday, you didn't have an alibi?"

Ms. Huajing said: "It's true, but it doesn't mean that I am the gangster."

Mao Li asked: "Miss Naoko, why are you in a good mood and still haven't contacted the family?"

"I didn't go to club activities because I wasn't feeling well," Naoko said, "and then I went to Happy Mood just to have a good mood, and then I forgot to call home."

Maori asked, "Have you been there all this time?"

Naoko said, "Yes, there are waiters who can testify."

Maori asked, "Mr. Wuju, what's your opinion?"

"An opinion?" Mr. Wuju said, "I'm still at a loss."

"I..." Maori was too angry to speak. ...
