Lan called and told Yuanzi about going to see Gerald Tianma, Yuanzi ran over happily, then called Mei Daizi, the three had a brief meeting, and confirmed that Yuanzi would go with Lan tomorrow Meet Gerald Pegasus. Although Mei Daizi borrowed his songs from Yuanzi and listened to him, she was not interested in him, but she really wanted to take the opportunity to slip out of work, but after thinking about it, she decided to stay at home and go to work.
Later, in order to let Yamazaki and Conan have a preliminary understanding of Gerald Tianma's works and avoid revealing their secrets tomorrow, Lan, Yuanzi, and Mei Daizi took Yamazaki and Conan to Mihua Plaza, where they played a game in the karaoke hall of Shochiku Entertainment Center. afternoon. ...
January 30, Sunday, before evening, overcast, Kanaya, Ota Ward.
Kanazhai is a castle-style villa located by the sea in Ota District, on a cliff facing the sea.
After the concierge asked for instructions, he opened the gate, and Mori drove Yamazaki, Ran, Conan, and Sonoko into the Kana house.
Lan sighed: "It is really luxurious to drive from the entrance to the front door, just like a foreign movie."
Yuanzi said: "What, you can't even see a servant here, so it's not luxurious."
"Okay, you guys remember it for me. After you go in, you should be more peaceful and don't disturb my work." Mao Li reminded.
"Yes, yes, we definitely won't." Yuanzi and Lan laughed together.
Just as the group got out of the car, suddenly a flash of lightning flashed across the night sky, causing Yuanzi and Lan to scream.
Yuanzi said in a gloomy tone: "Lan, I suddenly feel that this place is a bit like a castle in a horror movie."
"Ah!" Lan screamed in fright, making Yuanzi laugh happily.
"Stop playing, go in quickly." Yamazaki said with a smile.
At this time, the door opened, and a young and beautiful woman came out and said to Mao Li: "Excuse me, is this Mr. Mao Litian's family?"
"Yes." Mao Li smiled, "I am Mao Litian."
"I am Masao Tokudaiji, secretary of the president," Masao Tokudaiji said, "Please come in, Mr. Mori, our president is waiting for you."
A group of people entered the hall, and Ganasan greeted them, "Mr. Maori, welcome to come here."
"I'm really sorry to interrupt you because of my daughter's affairs." Mao Li laughed.
"Where?" Ganasan said with a smile.
At this time, a woman came over, and Kana Shan introduced her. His wife, Kana Misaki, was the president of the Kana Music Publishing House within the Kana Group.
After greeting each other, the Kana couple took Maori and his party to visit the villa. During this period, it began to rain heavily outside.
When he returned to the living room, the phone rang, and Misaki Kana's face changed drastically when he answered the phone. Mori hurried over to take the receiver from Misaki Kana, but there was no sound from it, and the other party hung up the phone immediately.
Maori asked, "Madam Misaki, do you often receive calls like this?"
Kanami Misaki leaned into Kanazawa's arms, and said with some fear, "Yes, it's a man with a hoarse voice."
Maori asked, "So, do you have any suspects or clues?"
"No." Kanasan said.
Misaki Kana said, "By the way, we received some photos this morning,
Please wait a moment, I will go back to my room to get it right away. "After finishing speaking, he left in a hurry.
Yamazaki asked: "Mr. Zenze, may I ask why you didn't call the police?"
Kanasan said: "Misaki is afraid that calling the police will have no effect, and it will make the other party worse."
Mao Li said: "But Mr. Shanze, we have no way to find the phone number from the phone company. If we don't call the police, there is no way to stop the trouble forever."
"Well," Kanasan said after thinking for a while, "I'll talk to Misaki again."
At this time, Misaki Kana came back and handed some photos to Mori, "Mr. Mori, look, I suspect these photos were taken yesterday."
Maori looked at it and found that it seemed to be the background of this villa, Misaki Kana's daily life photos, so he asked: "According to the background on the photos, the person who took the photos should have invaded your house, didn't you find out? "
"No." Misaki Kana said.
Ganasan said: "The porter also said that he didn't see any suspicious people coming in and out."
Maori rubbed his chin and said to himself, "Could it be that it came up from the seaside cliff behind the villa?"
Yamazaki said: "I don't think so, uncle, I just came up from there to take pictures, and the price/performance ratio is too bad."
Maori asked, "Then what do you mean?"
Yamazaki said: "Uncle Mori, Mr. Zennori, Mrs. Misaki, maybe the photo was secretly taken by someone in this villa."
Ganasan asked: "Is this impossible, why do they do such a thing?"
Maori said: "Mr. Shanze, you said that this kind of thing didn't happen until the date of Gerald's welcome party was set. This party is private, so no outsiders should know about it."
"But," Misaki Kanan said, "Mr. Mori, I'm not afraid to tell you that due to economic reasons, all the workers in my family have been dismissed except for the concierge."
Mao Li smiled and said, "Very well, the gangster is him."
"It's really him?" Ganasan said, "No, I'm going to ask him for clarification."
Mao Li smiled and said, "Don't worry, Mr. Shanze, I think it's better for us to call the police and let the police handle it."
"No, Zenzai, we can't call the police now." Misaki Kana said, "It might affect the party."
"Yes, yes, I almost forgot." Kanasan said, "Well, Mr. Maori, let's call the police after the party is over."
"Of course." Molly said.
"As expected of a Maori detective, he helped us solve the problem that had troubled me for many days." Misaki Kanan said with a smile, "I must toast you later."
"Where is it, you are too polite." Mao Li smiled proudly, "Anyway, if there is any matter that cannot be resolved, you must be looking for me, Mori Kogoro."
At this time, Tokudaiji Masao knocked on the door and came in, "President, your younger brother, Mr. Hideki and Gerald Tenma's manager, Mr. Michelle has arrived."
"Only them?" Ganasan asked. "Where's Gerald Pegasus?"
Tokudaiji Changdai said: "Mr. Michelle said that Mr. Gerald went to see the sea alone, and he will come within 30 minutes."
Afterwards, everyone went to the hall to greet Hideki Kana and Michelle, and led them into the restaurant, and Kanasan made an introduction for both parties.
After greeting each other, Sonoko and Ran started asking Michele about Gerald Tenma.
"Brother, come with me." Kana Hideki pulled Kana Shan away, and Conan followed curiously.
Kanan Misaki said: "Then, Mr. Mori, I'm going to touch up my makeup, excuse me."
"Please." Molly smiled.
Seeing Misaki Kana leave, Yamazaki thought for a while and said, "Uncle, I'll go and have a look too, lest someone do harm to Mrs. Misaki and spoil the party."
"Alright." Molly nodded. ...
In the side hall.
Kana Hideki asked: "Brother, that is a famous Maori detective, right? Why did you hire him? Don't you think our house is not messy enough now?"
"It's not because of the urgency of time, and you have to know that although Mr. Mori may add trouble, but his commissions have been completed." Kanasan said, "We are now just to ensure the success of the signing, and nothing else matters. "
Kano Hideki said: "But, brother, all the troubles Mr. Mori added are..."
When Conan heard this, he smiled wryly and shook his head. Uncle's reputation, how can there be business? Do you touch it every day? That will come true, wherever you go, there will be events. Vicious circle!
"Stop talking, everyone is here now." Ganasan said, "By the way, Mr. Maori has found the criminal, that is the concierge. We will call the police to arrest him after the party is over."
"It turned out to be him, which is very possible." Hideki Kana said.
Afterwards, the Gana brothers talked about signing the contract, and Conan left after listening for a while. ...
On the other side, Misaki Kana's bedroom.
Yamazaki stopped Kanamisaki before she entered the bedroom and said he wanted to talk to her. Misaki Kana hesitated for a moment before agreeing, and then invited Yamazaki into the bedroom.
"Mrs. Misaki, I'll get straight to the point." Yamazaki said, "That person must be you."
Kanan Misaki was stunned for a moment, "You, what are you talking about, I don't understand why."
"The room is only this big, Mrs. Misaki, if someone takes a picture of your daily life, you can't know." Yamazaki said.
"I, he..." Misaki Kana was speechless for a moment.
Yamazaki asked back: "Ms. Misaki, do you want to say that the gangster installed a small camera that can automatically take pictures in your house, so you didn't see anyone?"
Misaki Kana quickly said, "Yes, yes, that's what I wanted to say."
"But many places in this villa have become the background of those photos," Yamazaki asked rhetorically, "Do you still want to say that the criminals installed more than a dozen cameras in your house?"
"This," Kanami Misaki gritted her teeth, "it must be so."
"If according to what you said, this gangster came to your house in the morning, installed more than a dozen cameras all over your house, and then came to your house at night to take these cameras away." Yamazaki asked, "Your house has no missing property, right? ?”
"No, no." Kana Misaki sweated.
"Since they didn't steal the money, the gangster must be your fanatical fan and took away a lot of your clothes?" Yamazaki asked.
"No," Kanan Misaki exclaimed, "how do I know what those mentally abnormal people think."
"Don't get excited, Mrs. Misaki," Yamazaki said, "Now, tell the truth, you have no chance to break the contract."
"You..." Misaki Kana lost her strength suddenly, sat down on the bedside and began to cry. After a while, she stopped her tears and asked from the corner of her eyes, "Why do you doubt me?"
Yamazaki said: "In those daily life photos, there is not a single photo of bathing or changing clothes, not even a photo of before and after bathing and changing clothes, so the culprit will only be you. Others are thugs who install automatic cameras to secretly take pictures of you, Impossible to leak the bathroom etc.”
"As long as the automatic camera is adjusted at the right time, it will definitely be able to take a few extremely private photos. Even if this kind of extremely private photos are not taken, there will definitely be background photos of bathrooms and other places. The photos sent should be Yes, to imply to you, there are extremely private photos in his hands."
"If you put pressure, this is much more powerful than threatening letters and silent phone calls, but now the gangsters only send some ordinary photos of their daily lives, which is really unreasonable. Although this also shows that someone is watching you, it is not as good as the one who knows that you have been secretly photographed." Extremely private photos are shocking."
"Of course, there may be people who have your private photos but are worried that you will not accept them, so they don't send them to you, but the chances of this gangster making silent calls, sending threatening letters, and secretly taking photos are extremely low, I'm afraid You yourself don't believe people like that exist. That's all."
"I, am I being fooled by my cleverness?" Kanami Saki murmured.
"Your motive should be to sabotage the signing, but this signing should be beneficial to you." Yamazaki asked, "I heard that Mr. Gerald is of Japanese descent and only came to France ten years ago. Could it be that you used to be with him..."
"I don't want to talk about that," Misaki Kanan said.
Yamazaki said: "I can help you, Mrs. Misaki, just take a gamble."
Kanan Misaki was silent for a while and said: "We were lovers, but I broke up with him to marry Shanze, but he was not willing to let go, so I pushed him into the sea."
"I see." Yamazaki asked, "Is it near here?"
Misaki Kana said, "Yes, on the way home from a party here once."
"Then what do you want to do now, kill him again?" Yamazaki asked.
Kanan Misaki said with some pain: "I don't know, I really don't know, my heart is very confused, it would be fine if he came back after the statute of limitations expired in five years, he must come back now to settle accounts with me , must have come to see my jokes, he will definitely laugh at me, I chose my husband back then, but now my husband's company depends on him to survive."
Yamazaki thought for a while and said, "Well, I'll go and ask Mr. Gerald for you. If he's here to make trouble, you can use Uncle Maori to help you hire a lawyer for the concubine."
"You mean Attorney Princess Eri?" Kanami Misaki asked back.
"Yes, if lawyer Concubine helps, I believe this incident ten years ago will only create some gossip." Yamazaki said, "As for your business, if you are willing to sell it, I can help you contact someone Buyers, otherwise there is no help."
"Thank you, we don't plan to sell the company for the time being." Misaki Kana said.
"Okay, I'll go find Mr. Gerald now." Yamazaki said, and left. ...
