Chapter 624 The Second Dead

Upon arriving at the scene, Conan immediately identified the problem.

Although this is an open space surrounded by a wall, there are almost no fallen leaves around the helicopter. All the fallen leaves are concentrated in the corner of the yard, as if they had been blown away.

After carefully observing the surroundings, Xia Chuan took the key, opened the helicopter door, and went up to inspect it.

"Do IRS investigators have this kind of ability?"

Even Morofushi Takaaki was surprised. He thought it would be Yuri who went up to check the flight recorder, but it turned out to be Natsukawa.

"all the same."

Yuri stood with his hands in his pockets, his eyes downcast, seemingly unconcerned about waiting.

Naonobu Torada, who was standing next to him, asked with some confusion, "You're investigating helicopters, can you tell us why?"

"Because this plane is very likely involved in the gold heist the night before last!"

Yamato Kansuke did not hide anything; on the contrary, he directly stated the reason.

Then, he stared at Naonobu Torada with sharp eyes, as if trying to discover something from this news.

Unfortunately, Naonobu Torada only showed the surprise and fear that most people would show, and did not show the evasive or other expression that he wanted to see.

for a long time.

Xia Chuan poked half his head out of the car. "The flight records have been erased. Although they can't be restored, judging from the traces on other devices or control panels, there have indeed been flights in the past few days."

"Not just in these few days."

The scene shifts, and Conan is crouching on the ground, sniffing intensely. He then looks around and finally fixes his gaze on a metal bucket next to him.

"This helicopter has flown more than once in the past week, and the flight time is not short. There are many traces of oil splattered on the ground after refueling."

"This means that during this period, the aircraft may have circled and test-flown over Nagano Prefecture multiple times for some kind of plan."

Yuri's eyes lit up, and he looked at the Torada couple with hostility.

Regardless, the Torada family must be involved in the gold heist; otherwise, why would they fly helicopters around all the time? Even if they had a lot of money, they wouldn't spend it like that.

Moreover, the fact that the nearby police station did not report the incident suggests that either the police station itself has problems, or the helicopters are only taking off late at night when it is quiet.

"This is impossible!"

Naonobu Torada looked shocked. He didn't care if the helicopter flew around, but he was concerned that his plane was involved in the gold heist.

He knew what the consequences would be if his eldest son's death were linked to the gold heist.

As a large family in Nagano Prefecture, they could get news about their local area almost immediately, let alone such a major event.

Gold worth 50 billion yen.

Even the Torada family would find it difficult to come up with such a huge sum of money!
If it really is related to his family's helicopter, then this is truly a major misunderstanding.

"The helicopter was managed by Yoshiro Torada, and he suddenly died yesterday. I don't believe there's nothing fishy going on here."

Zhu Fugaoming shook his head: "Someone is killing people to cover it up!"

Taking in the expressions of the Torada couple, Natsukawa silently stepped off the helicopter and handed the keys to Uehara Yui: "We'll have to have professionals investigate to find out the specifics. Although the flight logs have been deleted, the black box inside the helicopter will definitely record everything."

The disassembly and assembly of the black box is very difficult. Even if professionals disassemble it, it is easy to damage the helicopter's own operating system. The person who did it may have destroyed the flight record, but the black box may still have a chance, and it may be possible to confirm the complete flight operation.

It may even preserve wireless communication records.

"I'm sorry, but it seems you two won't be able to leave the Torada family's residence for the foreseeable future." Yamato Kansuke's one-eyed gaze was fixed on the two men; this was the closest he had come to finding the cause of Kai Genjin's death.

With the help of the Public Security Bureau, he might be able to investigate what Torada Yoshiro and Torada Shigeji have been searching for all these years.

He even had a vague suspicion.

After the police arrived, all three members of the Torada family were taken into custody. Yamato Kansuke had originally planned to ask Torada Shigeji some questions, but since Torada Yoshiro was the one connected to the helicopter, he had not yet found a suitable opportunity.

Furthermore, we also need to go to the Ryūo family's place. If there's a problem with Torada Yoshirō, the Ryūo family might also have a problem, since they also own a helicopter.

"This village is huge; it takes about ten minutes to drive from one end to the other."

"The main problem is that the road is difficult to travel."

After answering Conan's question, Yamato Kansuke asked curiously, "But kid, why are you paying attention to the oil stains on the ground? And from the very beginning, it seems like you've been focusing on the ground."

Conan scratched the back of his head and laughed: "Actually, I learned all of this from Uncle Kogoro Mouri. He's really good, you know. He's the best detective in Tokyo."

On the surface, they're praising Kogoro Mori, but in reality, they're just peddling their own wares.

As soon as the car arrived at Longwei's house, everyone noticed something was wrong.

The door to the European-style Longwei house was wide open, and loud crying could be heard coming from inside.

The voices were sometimes hoarse, sometimes shrill, and there was more than one person.

"Look." Xia Chuan pointed to the ground.

From the muddy dirt road to Longwei's European-style house, drops of blood can occasionally be seen.

The faint smell of blood in the air reached their noses, making the group's expressions even more unpleasant.

"It seems that the bloodshed did not only happen to the Torada family."

Xia Chuan muttered to himself and took the lead in stepping inside.

Upon entering the hall, the wailing and weeping grew even louder. Several people were gathered in the middle of the hall, and among them was a stretcher covered by a white sheet. A very obvious bright red stain could be seen on one corner of the stretcher.

—Bloodstains.

Seemingly too focused, the Longwei family members didn't notice the uninvited guest until Xia Chuan pushed through the crowd and looked at the stretcher in the center: "Excuse me, may I ask who in your family has died?"

=======
The sudden sound broke the somber atmosphere. Ryuo Tamefumi, the head of the Ryuo family, was a tall and thin middle-aged man. As a prominent figure in Nagano Prefecture, he displayed the decorum expected of a nobleman.

I quickly composed myself and then began to assess the group of uninvited guests.

He was clearly taken aback when he saw Yamato Kansuke.

From his immediate expression of contemplation, Natsukawa could tell that Yamato Kansuke had clearly caused trouble at the Ryūo family quite a bit.

Both families simultaneously showed disgust and annoyance upon seeing Yamato Kansuke.

It felt like looking at a jinx.

"Who are you?"

Without answering the question, Ryūo Tamefumi turned his gaze to Yamato Kansuke, wanting an explanation.

Anyone would have their imagination run wild if someone in their family suddenly died and the police, with whom they had a bad relationship, suddenly showed up at their door.
