In Tokyo, a criminal

Chapter 338 Death always comes so unexpectedly
That evening, Aoyama Hidenobu visited Kentomo Hikokawa at his residence, bringing information about various local banks.

Standing at the door, he took a deep breath, straightened his collar and tie, then raised his hand and pressed the doorbell.

"Dingle bell! Dingle bell!"

"Excuse me, who is that?" came the nanny's voice.

"Aoyama Hidenobu is here to visit."

Because Hikokawa Kentomo had already told them that there was no need to inform or ask for permission when Aoyama Hidenobu came to visit, the nanny simply pressed the remote control of the villa gate to open it.

Aoyama Hidenobu went into the backyard and closed the door again.

The nanny had already opened the door and was waiting to greet us.

"Good evening, Mr. Aoyama. Please change your shoes."

Seeing Aoyama Hidenobu approaching, the nanny bent down and bowed, placing a pair of slippers at his feet.

Aoyama Hidenobu nodded slightly, put on his slippers and walked into the villa. When he walked into the living room, he found Asakawa Xia was also there, "Brother Xianyou, sister-in-law, good evening."

"Sit down." Asakawa Natsu invited with a smile.

Aoyama Hidenobu nodded and sat down on the sofa on the left side of the two of them. From his perspective, he could see the complete curve of Asakawa Natsu's profile.

The white turtleneck sweater fits tightly against her curvy body, revealing a full chest. Because she is crossing her legs, her black trouser legs are pulled up a bit, and her feet wrapped in black stockings and even her calves are slightly exposed. Her blue toenail polish is particularly charming.

Asakawa Natsu could clearly feel Aoyama Hidenobu's gaze. She didn't take it seriously before, but now she couldn't face it calmly and felt uncomfortable all over.

Yanchuan Xianyou personally poured a cup of tea for Aoyama Hidenobu, "Why are you here so late? Is there something wrong?"

"Brother Xianyou, the wedding gift that I promised to you and your sister-in-law has finally been prepared before your wedding." Aoyama Hidenobu handed over the gift bag with a smile.

"What is it?" Asakawa Xia asked curiously. She took the gift bag and took a look at it, only to find that it was a few bulging document bags. She handed it to Hikokawa Kentomo and asked, "What on earth is this?"

However, Yanchuan Xianyou knew what was going on. He took the gift bag and placed it at his feet without opening the document bag. He smiled and said to Aoyama Hidenobu, "I like this gift very much. Hidenobu is thoughtful. Leave the rest to me."

After that, we have to talk to the heads of these banks one by one, which is undoubtedly a big project.

Naturally, Aoyama Hidenobu could no longer run around.

"Hi!" Aoyama Hidenobu nodded.

Watching the two people playing charades, Asakawa Natsu crossed his arms over his chest and snorted lightly, making his fiancée seem more like an outsider.

She could only force herself to change the subject and said to Aoyama Hidenobu, "Don't just focus on work. You are our best man. Don't forget about this."

"Don't worry, sister-in-law. Even if I forget my own wedding date, I will never forget your wedding date." Aoyama Hidenobu said sarcastically.

Asakawa Natsu gave him a slightly charming look.

Then the three of them talked about some details of the wedding.

....................................

At the same time, in the basement of a house in Adachi Ward, Higashino Gen was gagged and tied to a chair, looking extremely miserable.

In the living room upstairs, the guy with the slicked-back hair was watching a game, while Nobita Ken, the bucktoothed boy and others were playing cards nearby.

"Baka! Why is my luck so bad? Not only did I lose money buying stocks, but I also lost to you guys playing cards."

The bucktoothed boy angrily threw the remaining cards in his hand back into the deck, grabbed a few coins and threw them to the four people.

The short man with a crew cut took his share of the money and grinned, showing his white teeth: "You are not destined to make money in the stock market. Instead of investing your money and not even hearing a splash, you might as well lose your money to us. At least you can get a thank you."

"Damn it! Shut up!" The bucktoothed boy punched him on the shoulder in anger.

The round-faced middle-aged man smoked a cigarette and said, "This year's stock market is no longer the same as in previous years. I see many people have lost so much money that they have jumped off buildings. We have finally managed to get a little bit out of these rich people, and you are paying them back through the stock market. It's really boring."

After he finished speaking, he shook off the ashes.

In the previous few years when the economy was good, the Japanese stock market was very hot. The bucktooth boy also invested in the stock market at that time, made a little money, and became more and more addicted to it, but in the past two years, he has almost lost all his money.

But he still firmly believed that he could get rich by relying on the stock market.

"What do you know? It's just that everyone is pessimistic about the stock market right now, so it's a good time to buy at the bottom! I'm optimistic about a stock recently, it will definitely rise, I have inside information." The bucktoothed boy reshuffled the cards, looking very serious.

Nobita Ken suddenly said, "Since the stock market makes money based on insider information, why don't you ask Higashino Gen? He's a big boss, and his information and sense of smell in this area must be much sharper than yours."

"Yeah!" The bucktoothed boy was stunned for a moment, then laughed excitedly, threw away the cards and ran to the basement, "I almost left a treasure trove for nothing!"

The man with slicked back hair looked at the scene and shook his head helplessly.

Arriving at the basement, the bucktoothed boy rubbed his hands with a playful smile and walked up to Higashino Gen, tore off the tape on his mouth and said, "Boss, do you know which stock will rise recently? Share, share."

Higashino Xuan: “???”

He was totally confused by this.

"Don't be so stingy. Just let me have a share of the soup with you. Then, as long as you tell me the inside story, I will agree to any condition except letting you go." The bucktoothed boy said with a lick on his face.

Dongye Xuan had an idea. Since this person was a veteran investor obsessed with stock speculation, he could use this to improve his situation, or try to persuade him to defect.

Thinking of this, he immediately made his first tentative request, "I am very uncomfortable being tied up, please untie the rope for me. Don't worry, you guys just stay up there and watch over me. I can't run away in the basement. Also, I want to eat the same food as you guys. Don't feed me the pig food you feed me during the day. I can't accept it."

"But what you eat during the day is the same as us." The bucktooth boy said in a gloomy voice.

Higashino Xuan: “…………”

"How about this." He took a deep breath and exhaled slowly, "You can buy some good food and put it on my bill. Just think of it as my treat, okay?"

"Okay, okay." The bucktoothed boy nodded repeatedly. Then Dongye Xuan recommended a stock for him to buy and analyzed the stock market for him.

The bucktoothed boy loves to trade stocks, so why doesn't he have a dream of dominating the financial market? I was fascinated by what he heard.

Two days passed like this, and the bucktooth boy basically stayed in the basement listening to Higashino Gen's class.

The stock that the other party recommended to him on the first night had indeed risen in the past two days, which made him even more convinced and he provided him with all kinds of delicious food and drinks.

The man with the slicked-back hair didn't care about it. After all, as long as the person was locked in the basement, he couldn't escape. He just kept him locked up for one more day and then released him after getting the ransom.

And Aoyama Hidenobu has not been idle these two days.

He often contacts Higashino, asking him if the robbers have called or anything like that, and at the same time, he intentionally or unintentionally tries to sow discord between him and Mikami Seinari.

On the evening of the 17th, the man with the slicked-back hair, the short man with a buzz cut, and the middle-aged man with a round face were all asleep.

The bucktoothed boy was still in the basement listening to Higashino Gen's stock analysis, while Nobita Ken tiptoed into the basement without waking up the other three.

"This stock..." Higashino Genmoto was talking nonstop, but suddenly he saw Nobi Kura Ken, and his voice stopped abruptly. He whispered, "Someone is coming."

The bucktoothed boy looked back and said happily, "Why are you here? Do you want to invest in the stock market too?"

After he finished speaking, he turned to Nobita Ken and said, "It was he who recommended me to come and ask you for advice."

Higashino Gen nodded slightly to Nobi Kura Ken.

But Nobita Ken drew his gun and pointed it at him, without saying a word and without hesitation, he pulled the trigger.

"boom!"

Dongye Xuanmei fell to the ground with a bullet in his heart, with a look of astonishment and confusion on his face. He lay on his back, staring blankly at the ceiling of the basement with wide eyes.

He couldn't understand why the other party wanted to kill him.

I never expected that I would die so hastily.

"Boom!"

Before the bucktoothed boy could ask any questions, gunshots rang out again. One bullet hit his leg and another hit his heart, causing him to fall to the ground.

The interval between the three shots was no more than two seconds.

After firing three shots, Nobita Ken stepped forward, took the gun from the bucktoothed boy, put it in his hand, held his hand, pointed it at his shoulder and pulled the trigger.

"boom!"

He groaned, sweat dripped down his forehead, he took two steps back, and then fell directly to the ground.

"What's going on! What happened?!"

The gunshots woke up the three people in the living room.

The lid of the basement was opened. The three men with slicked-back hair didn't know the situation inside, so they didn't dare to go down and check it out. They stood at the entrance with guns and shouted to the people below.

"Brother, I don't know how Bucktooth was persuaded by Higashino Gen. He wanted to take him away secretly and even shot and wounded me." Nobita Ken shouted outside.

The man with the slicked-back hair asked again, "Where are they?"

"He should be dead." Nobi Kura Ken replied.

Then the three men with slicked-back hair carefully came down the stairs to the basement, where they saw Dongye Xuanmei falling to the ground with a bullet in his heart, and the bucktoothed boy falling to the ground with a bullet in his heart and leg, still holding his gun in his hand.

Nobi Kura Ken was shot in the left shoulder and was sitting on the ground, covering the wound tightly with his other hand.

"Brother." Nobita Ken's face turned pale as he spoke the words he had prepared in advance, "When I got up to go to the bathroom, I saw light coming through the gap in the basement lid, so I planned to go down to take a look. Unexpectedly, I ran into Bucktooth dragging Higashino Gen out, and he pulled out a gun and threatened me to go with them, saying that Higashino Gen promised to give him 50 million US dollars and was willing to give me 20 million."

"I told him that he was deceived by Dongye Xuan, but it seemed that Bucktooth had been brainwashed by Dongye Xuan after spending too much time with him these past two days, and he refused to believe me. However, he was afraid of waking you up, so he didn't dare to shoot, let alone argue with me loudly. I was afraid that he would shoot, so I didn't dare to call out to you, and the two sides have been in a stalemate ever since."

"Maybe Dongye Xuan was anxious to escape, so he offered me a higher price, which made Bucktooth look sideways and distracted. I shot first, but I shot at his legs. Dongye Xuan took the opportunity to run, but I shot him dead on the spot in a panic. Bucktooth also shot at me when he saw this, so I was forced to fight back and killed him as well."

When he learned that the bucktooth boy loved to trade stocks.

I have already thought of this plan.

"Well done!" The man with the slicked-back hair said gloomily, "This bastard has become obsessed with stock trading and actually believed what people like Dong Ye Xuan said."

After seeing the scene with his own eyes, he did not doubt Nobita Ken's words. After all, it was a fact that Bucktooth had been close to Higashino Gen in the past two days, and he had been fighting for better treatment for Higashino Gen. Moreover, Nobita Ken was alone and had no motive to kill these two people.

"But now that Higashino Gen is dead, will Higashino Jiecheng refuse to pay?" Nobi Kura Ken said worriedly.

The man with the slicked-back hair snorted coldly, "How does he know that Dong Ye Xuan is dead? As long as he hasn't seen the body with his own eyes, he won't dare to gamble. He still has to pay the money obediently."

He knew very well what the family members who were tied up were thinking.

"Brother, you are wise. It's my lack of experience in this area that has caused me to worry in vain." Nobita Ken complimented.

"It's just that bastard Bucktooth's fault that made things so complicated." The man with the slicked-back hair cursed, "Originally, as long as we take the money and release the person, the other party might not call the police. But now we can't hand him over, Dongye Jiecheng will definitely call the police, so the money is easy to take, but I'm afraid it's not so easy to take away."

Most wealthy people would rather spend money to avoid disaster than create trouble afterwards. A business that was once a sure thing is now full of risks and unknowns.

"Brother, at this point, why are you still worrying about these things? You can only give it a try." The round-faced middle-aged man said with a dark face, and kicked the bucktoothed corpse. "You still want to eat alone, you better die."

"Okay, now that something has gone wrong, let's go up and discuss the follow-up plan and try to escape successfully. And we also need to take care of Nobita's wound as soon as possible." The man with the slicked-back hair said after a breath.

As soon as he finished speaking, he left.

The short man with a crew cut stepped forward and helped Nobita Ken walk towards the stairs to the basement. As for the bodies of Higashino Gen and the bucktoothed boy, no one paid any more attention to them.
