Stay away from Conan

Chapter 616 Belmod’s conspiracy (Part 2)

Since Hasegawa Ryuichi had confessed to himself his intention to kill Tanaka Ichiro before, Gao Yuan was very shocked when he saw the man who was actually preparing to kill Tanaka Ichiro, but he felt that it was reasonable to combine the two. People overlapped——

Although he had never seen the appearance of the man who almost killed Ichiro Tanaka in front of him, but after all, he could barely change his appearance, so it was not impossible.

Therefore, Gao Yuan couldn't help but feel that the man who almost killed Tanaka Ichiro in front of him might be Hasegawa Ryuichi in disguise!

After having this idea, Gao Yuan couldn't help but piece together a reasonable factual scenario——

Judging from what is known, Hasegawa Ryuichi must be related to the incident twenty years ago, so Tanaka Ichiro, the "puppet master", should naturally know Hasegawa Ryuichi.

Therefore, Hasegawa Ryuichi, who wanted to kill Tanaka Ichiro, would naturally have a hard time getting close to Tanaka Ichiro based on his true appearance.

In addition, judging from the skills Tanaka Ichiro showed just now, it is by no means an ordinary difficulty to kill him face to face.

Therefore, if Hasegawa Ryuichi wants to kill Tanaka Ichiro, he must relax Tanaka Ichiro's guard, and then approach him unexpectedly, so as to have a chance to succeed with one blow.

And because Tanaka Ichiro is the secretary of a member of parliament, it is difficult for ordinary people to get in touch with him in this status. Therefore, this kind of large-scale political banquet has become a rare opportunity for Hasegawa Ryuichi to get in touch with Tanaka Ichiro. Opportunity.

Probably, Hasegawa Ryuichi sneaked into the banquet scene in disguise and then found an opportunity to kill him...

However, in such a venue with hundreds of people watching, it is still slightly difficult to kill a parliamentary secretary...

At this time, an accident quietly changed Hasegawa Ryuichi's plan——

That is, the appearance of Castle Tomb Jade!

If his prediction was correct, when Shirozuka Hisui was on the phone with him before entering the venue, the content of her call was inadvertently heard by Hasegawa Ryuichi, so he probably already knew "Mr. Takato" at that time ", will also appear at this banquet scene soon.

So, he began to use the Castle Jade——

When Ichiro Tanaka realized that Shirotsuka Hisui might have suspected his identity and was going to use someone at the scene to deal with her, the man in disguise of Hasegawa Ryuichi naturally took over the task!

He used his disguised identity to appear to be Tanaka Ichiro's accomplice, but in fact, he asked the waiter to deliver the food truck containing the Shirozuka Jade to Tanaka Ichiro's guest room.

In this way, what happens next will be what I just experienced——

When Mr. Takato, who later became known as Mr. Takato, arrived at the scene, Hasegawa Ryuichi took off his disguise and began to take advantage of the safety of Shirozuka Jade, threatening himself and forcing him to find Shirozuka Jade.

Hasegawa Ryuichi, on the other hand, returned to the banquet in his true colors.

Because Tanaka Ichiro should know the appearance and identity of Hasegawa Ryuichi, and know what his appearance means, so after seeing the suspicious Hasegawa Ryuichi at the banquet and starting to ask reporters for photos at the scene, Tanaka Ichiro naturally I was shocked and said——

Although the specific reason is unknown, Hasegawa Ryuichi's plan to alert the snake did work. Realizing that the situation was not right, Tanaka Ichiro immediately made the decision to escape, so he planned to go back to his guest room to get something and then immediately leave here……

So, in this way, the final result became like just now——

He found Shirozuka Hisui in Tanaka Ichiro's room, but before he could leave, he bumped into Tanaka Ichiro who was about to come to the room to pick up something.

And in such a scene, no matter what, when I and Tanaka Ichiro meet in such a situation, a conflict will inevitably break out due to their respective positions.

Therefore, Hasegawa Ryuichi could take advantage of this opportunity to pretend to be that man again, making Tanaka Ichiro think that his accomplice had arrived, and that he could use him to deal with himself when he appeared in his room, thus making him think that he The "accomplice" relaxed his vigilance!

This creates an excellent opportunity for a sneak attack!

At that time, Tanaka Ichiro must have believed that he was the primary threat, and he did not know the complete reason. He must also instinctively think that the man who appeared later was an accomplice of Tanaka Ichiro, and became hostile to both of them.

So, facing his own instinctive reaction, which was completely devoid of acting, Ichiro Tanaka was deceived, unaware that this accomplice was his biggest threat——

Therefore, if the above inference is basically true, it means that Hasegawa Ryuichi used himself to create a perfect opportunity to sneak attack on Tanaka Ichiro.

And it is understandable why Hasegawa Ryuichi was willing to help him go to the banquet site to investigate.

After all, I didn't understand at all at the time that a person who wanted to kill Tanaka Ichiro was exposed to Tanaka Ichiro's eyes. What good would it do to him?

But if you analyze it this way, everything makes sense——

I am just the one being used by him!

But if this is the case, in that case, Tanaka Ichiro can still successfully avoid that fatal knife, which shows how difficult it is to kill. With such a reaction ability, Gao Yuan believes that it is absolutely impossible in that situation. Come down and react in time.

Therefore, this seems to prove why Hasegawa Ryuichi worked so hard to do so many things——

Because the "Puppet Master" is not only cunning, but also very skilled. It is extremely difficult to kill him without complete preparations. Therefore, Hasegawa Ryuichi needs to create an excellent opportunity for assassination...

Thinking like this, Gao Yuan ran upstairs with the jade in his arms. His mind only felt such speculations, and there were still many doubts that could not be answered.

Therefore, he must prevent the killing between them. If they die, it will be more difficult to find the opportunity to investigate clearly in the future——

What's more, even if a "puppet master" with such skill is injured, can Hasegawa Ryuichi really guarantee that he can kill him?

Now, since they are running upstairs, it may be too late for the police to come up, so they can only find a way to control the situation by themselves!

It’s just that the Castle Tomb Jade…

"It would be nice if you woke up now..."

Feeling a little helpless, Gao Yuan looked at Chengzuka Jade in his arms and murmured, then after thinking about it, he decided to put her down first——

In this stairwell, it is estimated that few people will come here...

So, when Gao Yuan came to a corner of the stairs, Gao Yuan planned to put Chengzhong Jade on the ground and let her rest against the corner, so that he could have his hands free to call the wise police and explain immediately. The situation now.

However, before Gao Yuan officially let go, Shirozuka Jade, who was motionless in Gao Yuan's arms, suddenly moved his hands and hugged Gao Yuan tightly, as if he didn't want Gao Yuan to let go.

In response, Gao Yuan couldn't help frowning and said very depressedly:

"Shirozuka Hisui-kun! If you wake up, please come down first..."

"No……"

As soon as Gao Yuan finished speaking, Shirozuka Jade, who should have woken up, murmured:

"I fell under that guy's 'hypnosis', and I still can't distinguish between reality and illusion... Now only Mr. Gao Yuan's arms can bring me a sense of security..."

"Don't make trouble...the situation is extremely urgent now! Come down first and let's talk!"

Hearing this, Gao Yuan probably understood that this "puppet master" should indeed know some "hypnosis", and Shirozuka Jade must have accidentally fallen into his trap, so he was knocked unconscious.

"Mr. Gao Yuan..."

At this time, Chengzhong Jade seemed to be barely awake after listening to Gao Yuan's words. He tried hard to open his eyes, looked at Gao Yuan in front of him dimly, murmured for a while, and then seemed to recall What? He actually buried his head in Gao Yuan's arms and said with some guilt:

"Mr. Gao Yuan, I was careless...that congressman's secretary..."

"He should be the 'Puppet Master'."

Gao Yuan couldn't help but answered, but seeing Chengzhong Jade's appearance, as if she was about to wake up, he gritted his teeth for the time being and continued to hold her and run upstairs.

"'Puppet Master'..."

After hearing this answer, Shirozuka Jade couldn't help but be silent for a while, blinked his eyes, and then he seemed to suddenly realize that he had woken up, and he suddenly raised his head and said:

"Mr. Gao Yuan, I have been taken advantage of!"

With that said, Chengzhong Jade began to signal to Gao Yuan that he could let her down, so Gao Yuan finally breathed a sigh of relief. After putting down Chengzhong Jade, he felt that she could take care of herself, and then he continued to run upstairs without stopping - —

We can talk about other things later, the important thing now is to catch up with those two people!

As for Chengzhong Jade, after standing firm, she seemed to still feel a little dizzy. She shook her head vigorously. Looking at Gao Yuan who kept chasing upstairs, she couldn't help but said in surprise:

"Mr. Gao Yuan! Wait for me! It's too dangerous for you to go like this!"

Saying this, seeing that Gao Yuan did not slow down, Chengzhong Jade couldn't help but stamped his feet anxiously, and followed him——

"Mr. Gao Yuan is chasing that 'puppet master'? You must not go! His 'hypnosis' is much better than mine, especially the method of drugging! You may be tricked without knowing it! Since The police are already here, just wait until the police come!"

Without understanding the current situation, Shirozuka Jade just guessed the possible situation based on his feelings and heard the sirens outside the building, and suggested this to Gao Yuan.

"The current situation is not that simple. If we don't hurry up, someone may die!"

Regarding Shirozuka Jade's kind advice, Gao Yuan could only say helplessly. At the same time, he was holding a mobile phone in his hand to call Akechi Kenwu...

…

At this moment, when Akechi Kengo led a team of elite police officers from the Metropolitan Police Department to the Rice Flower Hotel, after looking at the banners placed at the entrance of the hotel, he first asked the police officers to surround the event that Tonguchi Shigehiko was holding. The banquet scene of the election pep rally.

After making sure that everyone at the banquet was temporarily controlled in the banquet hall, Kengo Akechi entered the banquet scene with Miwako Sato and Wataru Takagi, two police officers specially ordered by Officer Megure to assist Akechi in policing.

At this time, due to the fact that the police surrounded the banquet venue of Representative Tonguchi Shigehiko, many celebrities present were already in the banquet hall, waiting aggressively for the police to explain this, and there were also some powerful people among them. The congressman was threatening the police who first entered the venue to maintain the situation.

As the protagonist of this banquet, Tunkou Zhongyan was naturally the first to bear the brunt. He displayed his majesty and stood at the forefront of the crowd, waiting for the arrival of wisdom and enlightenment——

"Officer, I need an explanation!"

It was obvious that the police officers present were headed by Akechi Kengo, and Shigehiko Tonkou naturally spoke arrogantly to Akechi Kengo:

"You surrounded my banquet for no reason, do you know what you are doing! If you can't give me a reasonable explanation, do you know the consequences?"

"Congressman Swallow your mouth."

Faced with Shigehiko's question, Akechi Kengo pushed up the glasses on his face and responded unhurriedly but with great momentum:

"Of course the police have their own reasons for doing this, so I won't bother you. We came here this time to get important clues and learned that your secretary is probably a nationally wanted criminal, so I'd like to trouble you. Give cooperation.”

With that said, Kengo Akechi winked at Miwako Sato and Wataru Takagi beside him, asking them to start looking for the target person in the crowd.

"My secretary? You mean Tanaka?"

After hearing Mingzhi Jianwu's words, Zhongyan's expression changed slightly, and then he said with a look of disbelief:

"He is a talent I poached from the publishing house, and he has been with me for several years. You now say that he is a nationally wanted criminal. Do you have any evidence? Show it and see?"

"Due to the seriousness of the case, the police are temporarily unable to disclose specific details."

Tactfully yet resolutely, Akechi Kensoo rejected Tonguchi Shigehiko's proposal.

But in this regard, Tonkou Shigehiko was not to be outdone and couldn't help but say:

"Officer, you didn't bring any evidence and just insisted that my secretary is... a nationally wanted criminal? Isn't it too childish? And, which department are you a police officer? Why don't I seem to have seen you before? ?”

"Congressman Tunkou..."

Faced with Tonkou Shigehiko's inquiry, Akechi Kenwu remained unhurried, took out his ID from his pocket, placed it in front of the other party, and replied:

"I am Detective Akechi Kenwu of the Metropolitan Police Department. Your secretary is involved in a serious case. If necessary, can you also come with us back to the Metropolitan Police Department for investigation... Regarding you and your secretary, we would like to Let’s talk to you in detail!”

"Wise... vigilant..."

Carefully, Tunkou Shigehiko looked at the certificate that Akechi Kenwu took out, and carefully looked at the job title written on it. Tunkou Shigehiko frowned slightly, and his expression began to become a little solemn.

At this moment, Sato Miwako and Takagi Wataru had finished inspecting the guests present, returned to Akechi Kengo, and shook their heads at Akechi Kengo, indicating that they had not found anyone.

Therefore, Akechi Kengo turned to Tunkou Shigehiko in front of him with a serious expression, and seemed to be considering whether to start from Councilor Tunkou's side or send police officers to search the entire hotel.

And this, seeing the change in Akechi Kengo's demeanor, Shigehiko Tunkou couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, feeling a very strong sense of oppression rising from Akechi Kengo.

But at this moment, Mingzhi Jianwu’s cell phone rang——

It is the caller ID of "Wise and High".

In this regard, Mingzhi Kenwu couldn't help but breathe a little sigh of relief, knowing that Gao Yuan had already discovered it, but he still kept a serious look and answered the phone.

But before Mingzhi Jianwu could talk to Gao Yuan on the other end of the phone, there was a commotion outside the banquet hall.

At the same time, a police officer rushed in from outside the banquet hall and reported the situation outside to Ming Zhijianwu——

Someone just fell to his death from the upstairs of the Rice Flower Hotel!

…

Turn your gaze and return to Gao Yuan.

Just as Gao Yuan dialed Akechi Kengo's mobile phone, he was ready to report the current situation to Akechi Kengo, so that the police could quickly notice Tanaka Ichiro who had fled to the upper floors of the hotel.

But before Gao Yuan could speak, Gao Yuan clearly heard on the phone that a police officer from Ming Zhi Jian Wu reported to Ming Zhi Jian Wu——

Someone fell from the upstairs of the Rice Flower Hotel and died!

In response, Gao Yuan couldn't help but look towards the door leading to the rooftop not far away, and realized that something had happened at this moment, so he hurriedly reported to Mingzhi Jianwuhui while running:

"Wise alert, on the rooftop!"

Simple and clear, after Gao Yuan said this, he accelerated his pace even faster, preparing to go to the rooftop to block the opponent's retreat——

Although I haven't seen the specific situation, the current situation must be that one person between Tanaka Ichiro and that man was killed by the other.

Therefore, in order to confirm the situation as soon as possible, Gao Yuan had to go to the rooftop to see——

If Ichiro Tanaka really kills the opponent, then maybe with his "puppet master" ability, it is even possible for him to escape in this situation!

This is something I must never allow!

Therefore, quickly, Gao Yuan arrived at the door leading to the rooftop and was about to open the door and go in——

"Wait a minute! Mr. Gao Yuan..."

At this time, seeing Gao Yuan preparing to open the door without knowing what was going on behind the door, Chengzhong Jade, who had already caught up, hurriedly tried to dissuade him.

But even though Gao Yuan was ready to stop because of Chengzuka Jade's words, the door was forcibly opened from the outside——

Oncoming, I saw Tanaka Ichiro's figure appearing outside the door, smiling strangely at Gao Yuan. Then, before Gao Yuan could react, Tanaka Ichiro threw something towards Gao Yuan.

Gao Yuan's reaction was quite quick, and he immediately dodged the object thrown by the other party, but then, Tanaka Ichiro actually closed the door again.

In this regard, Gao Yuan, who still didn't understand what the other party wanted to do, heard Shirozuka Hisui's anxious words——

"Mr. Gao Yuan! Smoke!"

After saying that, Shirozuka Jade immediately covered his mouth and nose.

Gao Yuan, on the other hand, looked in the direction of Shirozuka Jade's line of sight, and saw that the thing thrown by Ichiro Tanaka just now had fallen down the stairs to the corner platform of the stairs on the next floor. This thing, which looked like a small sandbag, quickly fell out of it. Some looming smoke emitted, and quickly spread——

"It's the drug he used for hypnosis! Absolutely..."

Covering his mouth, Chengzhong Jade tried his best to speak, but subconsciously, Chengzhong Jade knew in his heart that he and Gao Yuan had actually been tricked at that moment!

As a result, Shirozuka Jade could only smile bitterly.

Gao Yuan also realized this, because Gao Yuan clearly felt that his vision was starting to become a little blurry——

He wants to trap himself and Chengzhong Jade here!

While his thoughts were still clear, Gao Yuan acted boldly and pushed open the rooftop door without hesitation. He rushed in front, and at the same time pulled Chengzhong Jade to the rooftop with him, and closed the rooftop door with his backhand——

"Notify Akechi Police and ask the police to be careful about the gas in the stairwell!"

Hurrying, Gao Yuan handed the phone to Shirozuka Hisui, and he himself faced Tanaka Ichiro who was standing on the rooftop, looking at the two of them with a faint smile——

"I admire you!"

Seeing that Gao Yuan dared to pull Shirozuka Jade and rushed up to the rooftop in the opposite direction, Tanaka Ichiro, who had his neck simply bandaged, looked indifferent, waved his hands and sighed:

"You didn't escape down, but you dared to come up... Should I say you were reckless and lucky? Or you were really smart! My kind of medicine doesn't need to be inhaled, it can make people sick just by touching the eyes... You choose A temporarily safe road!"

Seemingly understanding this, Shirozuka Hisui couldn't help but look at Tanaka Ichiro in a daze, and said in disbelief:

"So...that's what happened..."

"Yes, little girl. You do have some skills in 'illusion', but after all, you are a little immature..."

With a faint smile, Tanaka Ichiro looked at Shirozuka Hisui and said.

"Tanaka Ichiro... No! 'Puppet Master'! Do you think you can still escape now? Even if your medicine can hinder the rushing police, the entire hotel has been surrounded by police, and you have no way out! "

Looking at Ichiro Tanaka who still looked carefree, Gao Yuan wanted to delay as much time as possible.

"Indeed... Now that this identity has been discovered, it is understandable that the police would make such a big fuss..."

It seemed that because Gao Yuan called out the nickname "Puppet Master", Tanaka Ichiro waved his hands helplessly, but then he said proudly:

"However, I really had no chance to escape. But who asked that guy to send me this!"

As he spoke, Tanaka Ichiro showed a human-faced hood in his hand.

For a moment, Gao Yuan suddenly understood that his previous inference was probably correct when he saw this man wearing a hood.

Hasegawa Ryuichi, disguised as the man just now, devised a plan to kill Tanaka Ichiro.

Just now, Hasegawa Ryuichi was killed by Tanaka Ichiro. After Tanaka Ichiro pushed Hasegawa Ryuichi downstairs, the human face hood used by Hasegawa Ryuichi to disguise was taken away by Tanaka Ichiro!

In this way, Tanaka Ichiro only needs to disguise himself as another person through this hood and have a chance to escape.

only……

The premise for him to do this was to silence himself and Shirozuka Jade, the two insiders!

Just as he was thinking, there was only a slight hesitation in his thoughts, and Gao Yuan suddenly saw that Tanaka Ichiro, who had been calm just now, suddenly rushed in front of him, and he was holding the Hasegawa Ryuichi in his hand to chop him. , striking towards Gaoyuan.

Seeing this, Gao Yuan instinctively took a step back.

Seeing that he had avoided the blow at this distance, Gao Yuan only felt a heart-piercing sting on his shoulder——

Why!

He obviously escaped!

Incredibly, Gao Yuan was so shocked that he didn't know what to do when he saw that he had not escaped the knife.

But at this time, I saw Ichiro Tanaka taking action again, stabbing towards him.

So, without hesitation, Gao Yuan decided to directly use his trump card-"The Hanged Man"!

However, even though he clearly saw Tanaka Ichiro right in front of him, he planned to use the "Hermit" to touch Tanaka Ichiro's Gao Yuan, but he missed the target and didn't feel anything. Naturally, the "Hanged Man" did not succeed. use.

——"Drugs, hypnosis! Mr. Gao Yuan! You have been tricked!"

At this time, Shirozuka Hisui on the side looked at Gao Yuan's very strange behavior when facing Tanaka Ichiro. He immediately realized the problem and hurriedly reminded him.

Therefore, Gao Yuan couldn't help being stunned, and understood why what he saw visually was different from what he actually felt.

In fact, Tanaka Ichiro, who was about to use his second sword just now, actually took a step back and asked somewhat unexpectedly:

"Just now...what did you want to do? I actually felt threatened! Is it possible that you are also a master of 'illusion'?"

Saying this, Tanaka Ichiro seemed to be a little afraid of Gao Yuan.

To this, Gao Yuan did not answer, but felt that the current situation was very difficult——

What I saw may be different from what actually happened...

In other words, I can’t completely trust my own vision!

"Illusion" can actually achieve this level?

Or is it because of the effects of that drug?

——"Drugs are one thing, but the behavior of the hypnotist himself is also an indispensable part of hypnosis... Mr. Gao Yuan, you can't let him lead you by the nose!"

As if seeing Gao Yuan's doubts, Shirozuka Jade reminded loudly.

But Gao Yuan suddenly said in surprise:

"Did you call?"

——Shirotsuka Hisui was clearly asked to call Akechi Kengo from the very beginning, but why haven’t he heard the sound of her phone call yet!

Hearing this, Shirozuka Jade himself was also stunned——

"Oops! When..."

Covering his head, Shirozuka Jade suddenly realized that it was not only Gao Yuan who was targeted, but also himself... He even forgot to notify the police about this!

Gao Yuan remained on guard against this, but he had already realized in his heart how terrifying this "puppet master" was. I am afraid that the "puppet master" was also the cause of the tragedy in the Muroran Port incident twenty years ago. Hypnosis.

But facing such an enemy, what should I do?

Not only the drugs, but also the behavior of the hypnotist himself is an integral part of hypnosis...

Suddenly, Gao Yuan seemed to have grasped something. Feeling blessed, he took out the monocle named "Star" from his right pocket, put it on his right eye, and then focused his eyes on Tanaka Ichiro——

"'Puppet Master,' you can no longer escape. Do you really think that no one knows about the tragedy twenty years ago and the events seventeen years ago? Even if you call yourself a 'Puppet Master,' Do you really think you can control people’s hearts like a puppet?”

——The special effect of "star", as long as you wear it and reason, the person you are looking at will put aside other things and start to follow your reasoning!

Obviously, in this case, Gao Yuan suddenly thought of a way to temporarily get rid of the other party's hypnosis from the prompts of Chengzuka Jade——

Now that he has been affected by the drug, the only thing left is to stop the hypnotist's own behavior.

And I happen to have a prop that can forcefully attract the other person's attention and make them put aside everything temporarily - "Star"!

Moreover, this effect, which I rarely use, is surprisingly easy to use.

Sure enough, when he put on the "star" and started trying to reason, Tanaka Ichiro really stopped and began to listen to his reasoning.

For a moment, Gao Yuan began to calmly explain what happened today, from the disappearance of Hisui from the castle to Hasegawa Ryuichi finding him, and finally the encounter of several people at the door of the guest room. The reason for this, Gao Yuan slowly explained his speculation. came out, and then walked towards Ichiro Tanaka step by step——

That's right, as long as you keep it like this, after walking to him, you can control him instantly...

"Mr. Gao Yuan!"

Suddenly, while Gaoyuan was walking forward, Chengzhong Jade suddenly screamed in surprise.

Immediately, Gao Yuan, who originally felt that he had control of the situation, felt that he had stepped on the air, and then the whole person began to fall downward——

Suddenly, the scene in front of Gao Yuan changed. He saw that he had unknowingly walked to the rooftop railing, where the railing was broken, and he stepped on the air and fell out of the rooftop. !

"Why!"

At this moment, Gao Yuan was suddenly shocked.

But at some point, Tanaka Ichiro, who was leaning in front of the intact railing, looked at Gao Yuan with a sneer and said:

"When I knew that you were well versed in this, I was prepared for your counterattack... When did you feel that you had escaped my 'illusion'?"

The sudden feeling of falling made Gao Yuan wake up completely. When he realized that he was about to fall downstairs, Gao Yuan's instinctive desire for survival made him quickly take off the "star" on his glasses, and then flicked them away. It stretched into a chain about two meters long, and then was thrown hard towards the railing on the rooftop.

After one end of the "star" chain wrapped around a railing, Gao Yuan had a relay point. When his body was about to fall to the outer wall of the building due to the pendulum movement, Gao Yuan adjusted his position and stepped on the building with his feet. On the outer wall, with the help of the "stars" in his hands, he began to run towards the rooftop quickly——

This situation surprised Ichiro Tanaka, who already thought he was sure of victory.

When he was about to take action against Gao Yuan who was about to come up, he came to the place where the railing was broken and was about to prevent Gao Yuan from returning. Suddenly, he looked at the rooftop of the Rice Flower Hotel and looked down at the extremely high distance from the ground. , Tanaka Ichiro felt dizzy for a while, and then he became unsteady and fell directly towards the rooftop——

The sudden change caught Gao Yuan and Cheng Zhong Jade by surprise.

Subconsciously, when Gao Yuan was about to stretch out his other free hand to catch the fallen Tanaka Ichiro, it was already too late.

Watching Ichiro Tanaka fall in front of him, Gao Yuan, who is still in mid-air and has not completely returned to the rooftop, can't believe that this "puppet master" just fell like this!

"The reasoning is over, let's start closing the case."

But at this moment, the long-lost settlement panel finally appeared in Gao Yuan's eyes again...

…

At the same time, in a room of the Rice Flower Hotel, looking at the figure who had just fallen from the window of his room, the girl wearing the uniform of Binhai Comprehensive High School had already dialed the phone——

"As you wish, there is no chance for 'Puppet Master' to survive... Hey, even without me taking action, the backup left by 'Camu' has already killed him. And the doctor who cooperated with us , and there is no chance to speak...Okay, I still need to report to 'Camu', so I will hang up first."

After saying this calmly, the girl hung up the phone.

On the other side of the ocean, it was still dark at night in New York City, USA. A blond woman was lying in the bathroom bathtub, putting the phone she had just answered aside, with a mysterious and comfortable smile on her face. Slowly lie down completely in the warm water of the bathtub -

"The 'Puppet Master' is dead, and there is one less person who knows the truth... 'Cointreau', this can be regarded as my fulfilling your regret for you... Then the remaining people may still know the truth... ...Is it 'Pisco'? It just so happens that once the 'Puppet Master' is dead, there is no need to keep it!"

Thinking of this, a gloomy and cold smile gradually appeared on the corner of the blond woman's mouth...

Damn, I feel like this article took two days to update.
