Chapter 332: Action is imminent
Chapter 338: Action is imminent

"I am back."

As night fell, after saying goodbye to Ningxue, I went upstairs and returned to the office. When I walked in, the house was silent. Yes, Xiaolan was still resting, and my father and mother were sitting on the sofa in a daze, their faces full of worry for Xiaolan.

"Boy, where have you been to play!" Dad stared at me with a gloomy face, as if he wanted to find a way to vent his inner depression from me.

"Uncle, I went back home today." I said calmly. "I heard about what happened to Sister Xiaolan, so I rushed back quickly. Is she feeling better now?"

"Hmm? Ah, it's all right now." Dad was a little confused. He couldn't say that he wouldn't let me go back for this reason. "If there's nothing else, you can go and have a rest. Our family is a little unsafe recently. Although I don't want to say more at this time, if there is someone in your family who can take care of you, it's best to contact them and go back to live for a while." What Dad said made sense. Xiaolan was in a dangerous state at any time. If I moved out now, it would be a safety consideration for me.

"Husband..." Mom looked at Dad with a worried look on her face. After all, Dad didn't know my identity. Although Mom wanted to object to this idea, she couldn't say it out loud.

"I see. I will contact my mother later and move out tomorrow morning." I nodded to my dad. Yes, it might be a good decision for me to move out now. After all, I will definitely receive messages from Ningxue and others anytime and anywhere in the next few days. It will be inconvenient to be with my parents. It is better to go back to my villa first, which will be convenient in all aspects.

"Ah, sorry, Xiaoxun." Dad sat on the sofa and held my head with his hand. "When I catch the murderer, I will take you back."

"Well~ I believe in uncle's ability to handle cases, and he will find the murderer soon~" I gave my dad a big smile as encouragement. "Then, I'll go back to my room first. Uncle Maori, Aunt Eri, you should also go to bed early, sister Xiaolan will definitely recover soon!"

After that, I returned to my room upstairs with a smile. When I returned, Conan was already sitting at the table, flipping through the recently recorded clues.

"Huh? You're back." Hearing the sound of the door, Conan turned around and looked at me.

"What happened today?" I asked directly.

"At the moment of the train battle, Xiaolan was pushed off the track. Fortunately, the driver braked, otherwise I would not have been able to pull Xiaolan out from between the tracks." Conan looked at me sternly. "It seems that the murderer has made up his mind to kill Xiaolan, and he is very eager. Officer Takagi was only distracted for a very short time, and the murderer took action. This is really brave."

"I'm sorry, it was my mistake this time." I shook my head in frustration. "My people told me that You Chengzhen was wandering downstairs of our building yesterday. After seeing Officer Chiba's car, he left quickly. I thought this could help me confirm that he was the murderer, but I didn't expect..." As I spoke, my hands began to tremble with fear. If Conan hadn't stepped forward this time, I might have lost Xiaolan forever. "Kudo, thank you. If it weren't for you, Xiaolan would have..."

"Okay, you don't have to apologize or thank me." Conan raised his lips slightly. "My obsession with Xiaolan is no less than your love for her. Instead of talking about this, why don't you share with me some information about You Chengzhen?"

"Yeah." I nodded. "You Chengzhen told me that he was framed. The specific situation is as follows..."

For about ten minutes, I told Conan everything I knew from You Chengzhen, and then thought with him about what to do next.

"From your information, if the clues provided by You Chengzhen were handed over to the police, we would be able to investigate faster, right?" Conan thought, holding his chin.

"Yes, this kind of thing will be handled quickly by the police, but I also promised You Chengzhen that I would not tell anyone about his affairs before the matter is investigated. If the police and You Chengzhen meet at this time, I don't know what the criminal will do. You know, the criminal was able to commit a crime against Officer Sato under the noses of so many police officers, so he must not be someone outside the police force. At least he must have some connection with the police. Otherwise, it would be impossible for him to sneak into the banquet so easily. I can say with certainty that the murderer must be one of the people at the banquet. So I don't recommend reporting this matter to the police."

"You want to check it yourself?" Conan frowned slightly.

"Well, I will arrange for someone to check the origins of these calls, and try to find the location of the public phones and the owners of the private phones from the police station's surveillance." I nodded. "But this is based on the premise that we don't alert the criminal. Otherwise, if the criminal changes his phone number and location, it will be difficult for us to check again."

"In that case, then just go ahead and do it. I'm going to go to the hotel to check. After all, finding clues is my strong point. But I don't object to you using special means. If you find the criminal first, remember to notify me first, and you can't kill him..."

"I will let him live." I interrupted Conan. "This time, Xiaolan's injury was caused by my carelessness. I have an unshirkable responsibility. So no matter who finds the murderer first, I will not kill him. Even if it is just to repay you a favor."

"This favor is really cheap..." Conan smiled bitterly and turned off the lamp on the table. "Then it's settled. I'll go to the hotel tomorrow morning."

"it is good."

The next morning, Conan went to the building where the last wedding banquet was held alone on the pretext of going to see Professor Agasa, while I left my home accompanied by my mother.

"Xiao Xun, do you have any other place to live?" Mom asked me with concern as we left the office, holding my hand. "If not, you can stay at my place first, or at Shiho-chan's place."

"It's okay, Mom. I have plenty of places to stay in Tokyo." I raised my head and smiled softly at the worried face. "Besides, it will be very convenient for me to move around if I leave Dad's place. Don't worry about me."

"Okay, but Xiaoxun, promise mom not to do anything dangerous." Mom squatted down and touched my head. "Xiaolan is already like this, I don't want you to make any mistakes."

"Don't worry, Mom." I gave Mom a big smile. "In this city, there are no more than five people who can threaten your son. And I have a certain influence here, so you can rest assured. I'll leave Xiaolan to you. I will find the criminal in three days at most." "Yes, Mom believes in you." Mom's face finally bloomed with a relieved smile. She stood up and whispered to me. "Then, Mom will take you here. Be careful in the future. If there is any problem, call Mom. If there is nothing wrong, you should also call Mom at night to make sure you are safe, understand?"

"Yes, of course~" I smiled and kissed my mother on the cheek. "Then I'm leaving, wait for my good news~" I broke free from my mother's arms and quickly disappeared around the corner of the sidewalk. A few seconds later, the roar of a sports car throttle broke the silence of the street, and then gradually went away.

"Xiaoxun... I hope everything goes well for you." My mother clasped her hands together in front of her chest and prayed softly for me. After a sigh, she turned and left.

On the other side, I got in the car and drove all the way back to my villa, and Ningxue was already waiting for me at the door of the villa.

"Mr. Mingya, welcome back." Seeing the car drive into the garage and the bright pale golden light slowly walk out, Ningxue stepped forward and bowed gently to greet him.

"Well, how are things going?" I asked bluntly.

"We have contacted Liu Yuxin at the police station and asked him to be on standby." Ningxue reported as she walked me into the room, because she knew how anxious I was about this matter. "We got the location of those calls through several hackers under the boss, and found that they were all called from public phone booths. Although we have located their locations, we can't proceed to the next step."

"why?"

"Because those telephone booths were two-way telephones, the two handsets were once connected together. We suspect that the criminal dialed many public telephones at once and connected mobile phones at the same time, and then set a trap."

"There must be a source, right? It's very difficult to find out?" I frowned.

"It's very tiring and takes time." Ningxue's voice gradually lowered.

"how long?"

"...One week."

"Too long!" I said unhappily. "Let the hacker from Skinny Wolf... Never mind, I'll find someone else to take over. Transfer all the current data to me, USB drive."

"Yes."

"Also, notify Liu Yuxin immediately and have him check the pedestrian records of those public telephone booths one by one. Start checking from the first day of the incident. Including all the electronic eye records near the place where Officers Naraze and Shiba died. Within three days, have him find everyone who can be found nearby that day. When Naraze died, the criminal went to Qiaozhuang Street, so we can find him based on his figure. If he is too busy, let Shuang'er find a way to go in and help him."

"Yes. I'll do it right away." Feeling my anger, Ningxue immediately stood up straight, then walked out quickly.

"Hu..." I frowned and let out a breath, calming down the turmoil in my heart. Then I picked up the phone next to me and dialed.

"...Brother Bing?" The call was quickly picked up, and Marissa's soft voice was heard on the other end.

"Is it convenient to talk?"

"Ah."

"Can you contact Taichi? Right now."

"Sure." As if sensing that my emotions were a little abnormal, Mary immediately returned to her true state.

"I'll give you a few phone numbers later. Ask Taiyi to find the best chicken. You must find the source of the final call within three days!"

"Uh, cross-border?"

"Japan wouldn't dare to jump up and down if the United States invaded." I smiled contemptuously. "Go ahead and do it, the sooner the better. Ask him to contact me directly afterwards, and I'll give you the contact information later."

"Yes!"

　It’s 6.1. I wish Mo Li Meng, Hong Chao Liu, Xing Tian Tang, Yi Meng, Xue Yue Yin Yao in the group a happy holiday.
