A Sorcerer in the Detective World

One o'clock in the morning, Cupido Town, 5-chome.

In a tavern that was open all night, Officer Megure, Takagi Wataru, and Chiba Kazunobu walked out together and apologized to the owner of the tavern. Then Officer Chiba smiled and scratched his head and said: "It's hard to believe that this is actually true in this world. There are such similar people, if you don’t look carefully, that guest is exactly the same as Numabuchi Kiichiro!”

"...Yes, it does look a bit too similar." Officer Megure raised his hand and looked at his watch, "...Forget it, let's go back to the Metropolitan Police Department first..."

"Okay, Officer Megure."

Takagi and Chiba both responded, and the three of them got into the car together, and then heard Officer Megure's mobile phone ringing.

Officer Megure quickly took out the phone and said "Uh-huh" twice before his expression suddenly became serious: "...What did you say?! Someone just called the police and said that the chairman of the automobile company, Kenzo Masuyama, is The person behind the billion-yen robbery?”

"...Yes! Yes! We are in Cupido Town now, very close to Mr. Masayama's house. We can get there in five minutes... Okay, we will ask Mr. Masayama to cooperate with the investigation."

Officer Megure hung up the phone, and Wataru Takagi in the driver's seat immediately asked: "Officer Megure, are there any new clues about the billion-yen robbery case?"

"This... we're not sure yet." Officer Memu shook his head, "... However, according to the information from the command center, someone made a police call just now..."

Officer Megure briefly explained the matter. Takagi laughed twice and then said: "... Mr. Masan is the chairman of a large automobile company and has huge assets. How could he do such a thing? This news must be fake, right?”

"That's not necessarily true." Chiba stretched out his chubby chin and said thoughtfully, "...A month ago, I read a news report, which mentioned that Mr. Masan's car company was not managed well and had always been... He was barely holding on... Maybe Mr. Masan was very short of money because of the company's management, so maybe he planned the robbery..."

Officer Megure nodded: "Well... no matter what, in short, let's go and take a look first."

…

Inside Masama Kenzo's bedroom.

With a "dong dong dong" sound outside the door, Masuyama Kenzo woke up in a daze, feeling dizzy all over, and asked angrily: "...What's wrong? What happened?"

After Lushan Xian finished speaking, the butler's voice came from outside: "Master, please open the door quickly, let's run out quickly, there's a fire in the villa!"

"What?!" Masuyama Kenzo was stunned for a moment, and quickly stretched out his hand to open the door. Then a strong smell of smoke came in, and he couldn't help but cough. The expression on his face was so confused——

Damn it! His villa was fine, why did it suddenly catch on fire?

Kenzo Mayama was confused and ran out of the villa with the housekeeper. Looking at the house burning in the fire, Kenzo Mayama asked angrily: "Butler, what the hell is going on?! Why did the house suddenly catch fire? Already?"

"Sorry, sir, I don't know either." The housekeeper quickly apologized, "...it was the servant who first discovered the fire in the house, but according to him, the fire was already very big when he discovered the fire..."

"...Damn it!" Kenzo Maoyama cursed and was about to say something else, but he saw three uniformed policemen coming next to him, saluting Kenzo Maoyama and saying, "Hello, Mr. Kenzo Maoyama, I He’s a police officer from the Investigation Section 1 of the Metropolitan Police Department, my surname is Memu.”

"Hello, Officer Megure." Masuyama Kenzo saw Officer Megure and the other three, and was stunned for a moment. "...Do you have any business with me?"

Officer Memu bowed and said: "That's right, our Metropolitan Police Department just received a call to the police. The caller said that he found someone setting fire to Mr. Ganshan's house. He also said that he heard the calls from the arsonists. The arsonists Claiming to have planned a billion-yen robbery with you..."

"Huh?!" Kenzo Mayama was confused again,

The expression "Are you fucking kidding me" is written all over the old face——

Of course, Kenzo Masayama knew everything about the billion-yen robbery. From beginning to end, it was planned by Miyano Akemi alone, and she had nothing to do with him!

Who is blaming him?

Officer Megure continued to stare at Kenzo Masayama: "...So, Mr. Masayama Kenzo, could you please assist us in our investigation? Of course, you can also refuse, but according to the law, we can ask you to go to the Metropolitan Police Department to assist Er. Fourteen hours..."

The expression on Masuyama Kenzo's face changed, and then he said: "...I understand."

At the same time, Shu Yunwen, who had just parked his car nearby, also rushed over and took a look from a distance. After seeing Officer Mumu and the others, he immediately hid aside and used a [Ghost Witchcraft] in front of him. ·Illusion], hidden——

There were more and more people here, and he didn't want to leave any traces here. It would be very troublesome.

…

A few minutes later, the fire truck finally arrived. Under the spray of high-pressure water hoses, the fire was quickly extinguished. Accompanied by Kenzo Masuyama, Officer Megure and the police who had just arrived walked into the half-ruined villa. , conduct an investigation.

Shu Yunwen asked Cheng Shi to follow and observe. Not long after, seeing everyone approaching Kenzo Mashan's bedroom, Shu Yunwen immediately asked Cheng Shi to take out a stack of serialized new banknotes from under the bed and put them on the floor.

A group of people walked into the bedroom. Officer Megure looked around and said, "...Mr. Masan, it seems that your bedroom is basically unaffected... Can we do a simple investigation in your bedroom?" ...Huh? What is that?"

As Officer Memu spoke, his eyes fell on the floor next to the big bed. He quickly walked over and picked up the things on the ground. His expression suddenly changed: "...Mr. Masan, can you explain the floor of your bedroom? Why is there a stack of new banknotes that have not been opened yet?"

"...This, this..." Masuyama Kenzo looked at the new banknotes in Officer Megure's hand, dumbfounded and speechless——

Takagi Wataru walked up to Officer Megure, took the new banknotes from Officer Megure's hand, looked at the serial number on it, and looked up at Kenzo Matoyama: "...the serial number on this new stack of banknotes is the same as the previous one billion The serial-numbered new banknotes that were stolen in the Japanese yen robbery are the same. Mr. Masan, do you have any explanation for this?"

Kenzo Mayama was still speechless. The two policemen next to him worked together to lift Kenzo Mayama's bed. Under the bed were stacks of banknotes, at least 200 million.

Kenzo Masuyama looked at the scene in front of him, with cold sweat on his forehead, and a very ominous premonition welled up in his heart——

Damn it! Who can tell him what's going on? This situation is not right! Someone is definitely plotting against him!

Masuyama Kenzo's expression changed, and he spoke after a few seconds: "Mr. Police Officer, there is definitely something wrong with this. I was framed! If I was really responsible for the billion-yen robbery, how could I possibly do it?" Would you hide money under the bed in your bedroom? Isn’t this place too easy to be discovered? "

"...So, someone must have secretly hidden the money under the bed while I was away, hoping to..."

Before Masan Ken could finish his words, suddenly the oil painting on the bedroom wall made a loud thud, as if someone had pushed it down, and fell to the ground with a bang.

Everyone looked around and saw the safe hidden in the wall.

At the same time, in the eyes of everyone, a small piece of paper floated lightly in the air, and finally floated into Qianye's hand.

Chiba looked at the safe, then at the note in his hand, and said in surprise: "...547863, this is..."

When Kenzo Mayama next to him heard these six numbers, he almost spat out a mouthful of blood——

547863...This is the password to his safe!

"Chiba! Try to open it and take a look!" Officer Megure ordered, Chiba quickly responded, walked quickly to the safe, rotated the number plate according to the number on the strip, and then the safe opened with a "bang", revealing the contents inside.

That’s a safe full of ten thousand dollar bills!

Officer Megure and others looked at Kenzo Masayama again. Kenzo Masayama looked confused and opened his mouth, but couldn't say a word——

who is it? He was actually willing to spend one billion yen to frame him. What a generous act!
