Chapter 340 The Injured Kidnapper

The old man was talking to himself, but the protagonist he was talking about was lying on his side on the bed with his back to the old man, completely ignoring him.

The stranger was an uncle who looked to be about the same age as Kogoro Mori. He had a small moustache and a shifty look, and he didn't look like a good person.

Uncle Maori glanced at the shifty uncle, then looked away with a look of boredom on his face.

Being in the hospital is so boring...

I'm dying without Ms. Yoko's concert to watch!
If Miss Yoko is willing to come and visit me, that would be great. I would definitely be full of energy in that case!
Uncle Maori held his chin with his hand, and his mind was filled with random thoughts.

Just then, the door of the ward was pushed open and an uncle walked in.

This is an honest-looking uncle, with a hint of cowardice in his expression.

He is a little younger than Uncle Maori, but looks a little prematurely aged and doesn't seem to have much vitality.

The old man sitting on the hospital bed saw the uncle and smiled with relief.

"Good husband? What a rare guest!"

The uncle named 'Liangfu' came in and asked, "Dad, is your waist feeling better?"

"I'm almost healed." The old man laughed at himself and said, "Really? I just twisted my waist accidentally and ended up staying in the hospital for two weeks. It's so embarrassing!"

"Dad, have you taken your medicine on time?" Liangfu asked with concern.

"Not yet," the old man replied.

"Why haven't you taken your medicine yet? Don't forget, you have a chronic disease of diabetes!"

During the conversation, Liangfu picked up the kettle on the table and poured it into the cup.

At the same time, he quietly threw a special pill into the glass of water without being noticed by anyone.

Except for a certain electric squirrel standing nearby.

But the squirrel did not expose his plan. It just looked at him quietly, and even showed a hint of interest in its eyes.

The old man stretched out his hand, took the glass of water handed to him by his son, and swallowed the pills mixed with the water.

After taking the medicine, he casually said, "By the way, why didn't I see Xiao Gong?"

Hearing this, Liangfu's pupils shrank instantly, as if his heart was shot by an arrow.

But he quickly regained his composure, only his eyes were a little evasive, and he laughed dryly: "Xiao Gong, she went ice skating with her classmates, so she is not available for the time being."

"Next time, I'll bring her to see you!" Liangfu's tone was a little perfunctory, and he was almost about to say "next time for sure".

"Really? I haven't seen my granddaughter for a long time. I really miss her!" said the old man.

"There's nothing we can do about it. Xiaogong is rather naughty..." Liangfu reached out to take the empty cup and put it on the table.

At the same time, he seemed to intentionally or unintentionally glance at the shifty-looking uncle lying next to him.

The shifty uncle was quite alert and noticed the other person's gaze immediately. He turned around and said unhappily, "What are you looking at?"

"Why are you staring at me? Try looking at me again, you idiot!"

After saying some curses, the uncle with shifty eyes directly pulled the curtain between the two beds, completely blocking Liangfu's sight.

"I'm very sorry!" Liangfu said apologetically. His eyes were a little worried and confused. It seemed that he was hesitating about something and didn't know how to make a decision.

"Liangfu, have the robbers been caught?" the old man suddenly asked. Liangfu replied, "Probably not. They seem to be still running away, right?"

Outside the curtain, the shifty-looking uncle lying on the bed heard their conversation.

His eyes flickered subconsciously, as if he was worried about something.

The reason is simple, because he is one of those robbers.

That day, the robbers stole the money and drove away from the scene, but ended up in a car accident.

Everyone else escaped, but this shifty-looking uncle had the bad luck to fall into a coma and was left in the car.

His companions were already in a difficult situation themselves, so they naturally had no intention of saving him and ran away, abandoning him.

Then, this guy was caught by the police. Because of his serious injuries, the police sent him to the hospital for treatment.

The old man had said before that no one came to visit this uncle during the past week because his companions were all fugitive robbers.

If those robbers dared to come to the hospital to visit him, wouldn't they be walking into a trap?
You know, this hospital has been under police surveillance for a long time. If the robbers' accomplices dare to step into this hospital, even for one step, they will be arrested.

It is precisely for this reason that naturally no one dared to come and visit him.

The robber uncle lying on the bed had his mind in turmoil, while the conversation on the other side was still going on.

As they talked, they turned the topic to Uncle Maori and talked about the last bank robbery.

A week ago, when the bank robbery happened, Liangfu happened to be an employee of that bank.

When the robbery happened, Liangfu was so scared that he trembled and crawled under the table, feeling extremely embarrassed.

However, this is also the behavior of normal people. Not everyone can be like Ze Yu, who, when facing a robbery, bravely steps forward and knocks out the robbers in a few moves.

Liangfu's behavior is the reaction that a normal person should have. Although this behavior is shameful, the incident happened suddenly and there were many people who embarrassed themselves in order to save their lives. He was not the only one.

Speaking of which, the Tokyo in Conan's world is really pitiful. A bank robbery occurs every few days. It is really full of disasters.

The bank employees here are almost used to it and even treat robberies as a daily routine.

Of course, even if they are used to these daily routines, they will still be scared when robbers walk in with guns.

Liangfu slowly recounted the general course of the robbery, then answered a few questions from the Junior Detective Team and left.

Before leaving, his face looked a little ugly, full of a struggling emotion.

.........

In the ward.

Several members of the Junior Detective Team are enthusiastically discussing last week's bank robbery.

"I think those robbers should have fled abroad by boat!" Mitsuhiko said seriously.

"Maybe, they might be hiding in some mountain. Who knows!" Ayumi said seriously.

"No, those robbers got a lot of money, so they must have gone shopping!" Yuan Tai still had a wild imagination as usual, and his words didn't make any sense at all.

PS: I recommend the book "Detective Conan: The Handsome Sibling".
