Conan: I'm a zaibatsu in Tokyo

Chapter 129 Call Zheng Yi Here! (Please Subscribe)

"Ladies and gentlemen! The magic show is about to begin!"

After hearing the familiar voice.

A beam of light appeared in the pitch-black environment, and Phantom Thief Kid, dressed in a white battle robe, stood at the very center of the beam.

Several gems hovered above Kidd's head.

Then, the photographer, who had been preparing for who knows how long, took out his camera and started shooting.

The flash of the camera made it impossible for people to open their eyes.

Kidd and the gem floated above the car, allowing the photographers to take pictures.

Conan glanced at the car next to him.

When did Kid steal the jewels from the car?
What methods did he use?
Amuro Tooru didn't think about how Kid stole the jewel. While everyone was in shock, he rushed over immediately, wanting to catch Kid.

"what!"

"Be careful."

The security guard who was knocked down yelled angrily at Amuro Tooru.

"Uh, sorry," Amuro Tooru said apologetically.

The security personnel pushed Amuro Tooru aside and said, "Don't cause trouble for us."

After pushing Amuro Tooru away.

The security personnel began a cat-and-mouse game with Kid.

This mouse seemed quite formidable, toying with the cats so much that they had no chance to retaliate.

Kidd, who was hanging in the air, yawned.

This game is so boring, I wish it would end soon.

“I’ll take these gems,” Kidd said with a smile.

"dream!"

Conan took out the boomerang that Shoichi had given him and cut the wire hanging on Kid's shoulder with one throw.

"Forehead?"

Kidd fell from the sky and landed on the car.

He stood up and rubbed his backside, trying to see who had done it.

When Conan saw Kid fall, he realized it was a good opportunity, activated his sneakers, and flew out with a 'teng'.

"It's dangerous, little kid."

A security guard ran over, caught Conan in mid-air, and then put him on the ground.

"Kids shouldn't do dangerous things. Let us adults handle Kid's capture."

"But!"

Conan stomped his foot heavily.

Kidd's about to run away, what are you guys doing stopping me?
Whose side are you on?

Not only Conan, but Amuro Tooru also encountered great obstacles.

He wanted to help catch Kidd, but the security personnel seemed to have something wrong with their eyes, and someone would bump into him every now and then.

This made it impossible for him to pursue Kidd.

Kidd left the store with ease.

Outside, equipped with a hang glider, Kidd felt invincible.

In this open space, no one can catch him.

"Step aside!"

"Buzz~buzz~"

A man in a suit sped up on a motorcycle and recklessly charged toward Kidd.

Security personnel along the route unconsciously made way for them.

Conan's eyes widened.

Is that Mr. Koda?

Why did he come here?

"Uh~"

The oncoming motorcycle sent Kid flying, and Koda snatched the jewel from his hand.

"Great!"

Conan gave a loud thumbs-up, and then saw Koda ride off on his motorcycle without looking back.

"Ok?"

Conan scratched his head.

Could it be that Mr. Koda didn't come to stop Kaito Kid, but to replace him?
Kidd got up from the ground and looked in confusion at the spot where the motorcycle had disappeared.

Damn.

Did I run into a competitor?

Those despicable motorcycle thieves! How dare they steal from Phantom Thief Kid!
He chased after them in his hang glider until they reached an alley.

The motorcycle was found here, but the rider had disappeared.

"Oh no." Kidd rubbed his face in discomfort.

Zheng Yi's performance failed. Is he going to get shot?

Seeing that the people behind him had also arrived, Kidd piloted his hang glider and left the scene.

Conan looked at the motorcycles in the alley and the open sewer covers.

Without hesitation, he jumped into the sewer.

Amuro Tooru hesitated for a moment, then jumped down after Conan.

……

Near the Mian Guanyi family.

Kogoro had just been turned away and was in a bad mood, wanting to go home.

"Ok?"

He suddenly saw Koda emerge from the sewer, covered in dust and dirt.

"Mr. Koda, what's wrong with you...?"

"Don't worry about it."

Koda replied, then skillfully scaled the wall and jumped into Yoshikazu Watanuki's house.

Kogoro blinked.

Isn't that illegal?
Just as he was about to go and take a look, he saw a little boy crawling out of the sewer.

"Conan! How did you crawl out of the sewer?" Kogoro asked.

Instead of going home at night, are you crawling through the sewers like other people?
"Uncle, please don't worry about me," Conan said.

He looked around, recognized where he was, started his sneakers, and climbed over the wall into Mian Guanyi's house.

"Kid, do you know that this is illegal?" Kogoro said angrily.

"Oh dear! I'm a minor!" Conan said without turning his head.

As Brother Zhengyi once said, a detective must utilize everything within his power.

Their status as minors can be used to their advantage, right?

Kogoro rolled up his sleeves, ready to teach Conan a lesson, "You brat, I think you want to get beaten up."

Just as he was about to leave, another person emerged from the sewer.

"Huh? There's more?"

“Um, Mr. Mori.”

Amuro Tooru nodded to Kogoro, then looked around and saw two black marks that had spread directly to a wall.

Amuro Tooru also prepared to climb over the wall and go in.

"Wait a moment!"

Kogoro grabbed Amuro Tooru and said, "What, are you a minor too?"

"what?"

After Amuro Tooru was pulled down by Kogoro, he was given a simple and easy-to-understand legal education.

"Now, come with me to ring the doorbell."

"Yes."

Kogoro took Amuro Tooru to Yoshikazu Watanuki's house and rang the doorbell.

I waited for a long time, but no one came to open the door.

Instead, I heard the sound of fighting inside.

"When did you break into my house?"

"Don't dig up my lawn."

"Damn it, you bastard, you know you've broken the law?"

"Please stop fighting!"

Hearing the commotion inside, Amuro Tooru and Kogoro decisively chose to rush in.

Once inside, they saw Yoshikazu Watanuki beating Koda. Koda didn't fight back as he was being beaten; he just continued digging a pit in Watanuki's house.

Conan stood by, trying to dissuade him, but to no avail.

"Humph!"

Koda threw down the shovel he was holding, then took out his phone and arrogantly said, "I've already called the police!"

Mikan Yoshiichi was so angry at the bastard that he almost died.

You broke into my house and then called the police?
what are you doing!
When Inspector Megure arrived, Koda stood up from the ground, ran to Megure's side, and said:
"Officer, I confess. I stole the jewels from those cars."

Inspector Megure's lips twitched as he looked at Koda's smug expression.

Having been a criminal investigator for so many years, this is the first time I've seen such an arrogant criminal.

"Since you've turned yourself in, then return all the jewels," Inspector Megure said.

"Sorry, I can't do it."

"What do you mean?"

Koda said, "Because I buried the gems in the yard of the Watanuki family, I don't remember exactly where they were."

Inspector Megure frowned.

He also knew that Koda had previously reported that his father had been murdered and buried in the yard.

So, this guy turned himself in so that the police would have a reason to dig a pit in the yard of the Mien Guan Yi family.

Miyakushi said with dissatisfaction, "What if my yard is damaged?"

"I'll pay you back," Koda said.

"Then do as you please."

Miyakuya revealed a smug smile, completely unconcerned about what the police might dig out of the yard.

His smile was captured precisely by Conan.

Under Inspector Megure's command, the officers began digging the hole.

A police officer carefully dug a hole, afraid of damaging the small gemstone below.

Before, they were careful to dig for paintings; now they are being careful to dig for gems.

It feels like even if I didn't become a policeman, I could still go tomb raiding.

While the police officers were digging, Inspector Megure asked Yoshikazu Watanuki, "Is it true that you have a conflict with Suneo Koda?"

“What conflict could there be between us?” Mikan Yoshiichi said with a smile.

"Speaking of which, it should be Mr. Zhengyi who has a conflict with him. Xiaofu has been smearing Zhengyi in the newspapers, which makes Zhengyi hate him."

That's why Zheng Yi asked me to persuade my car dealership to stop cooperating with him. I'm just doing Mr. Zheng Yi a favor.

Koda said, "And it was when my father went to find you, trying to cooperate with you again, that you killed my father."

"So, is it possible that Masakazu instructed Yoshikazu Watanuki to kill Mr. Suneo?" Kogoro asked softly.

Upon hearing his words, Koda's eyes widened.

What are you talking about, you bastard?!

I commissioned you to investigate this matter because I believe you won't make baseless accusations, and that the investigation will stop once you reach Yoshikazu Watanuki.

Haven't I heard that Zheng Yi has a reputation for wiping out entire families?

You absolutely must not get involved with him.

"Cough cough!" Koda said with a trembling voice, "Yoichi Watanuki and Masakazu are not closely related, so why would he help Masakazu kill someone?"

“That makes sense.” Kogoro nodded.

Inspector Megure felt that Koda was mocking him.

Does he not believe that our police will enforce the law impartially?
Does he think our police force is afraid of Zheng Yi?
"That's not right. Mr. Yoshikazu Watanuki's car supermarket relies heavily on the support of the Sumitomo Group."

"Furthermore, it seems that Mr. Yoshikazu Watanuki has a large loan at Sumitomo Bank," Takagi said.

After he finished speaking, Koda's face darkened.

"How did you know?" Kogoro asked in surprise.

"Because after Mr. Koda reported the case, I investigated some things about Yoshiichi Watanuki," Takagi said, scratching his head.

Koda's face darkened further.

He just wanted to confirm his father's death; he didn't want to die with him.

Inspector Megure felt bad seeing Koda's dark expression.

Mr. Koda must be looking so grim because he suspects the police won't dare do anything to Masakazu.

"Call Shoichi over here!" Inspector Megure said firmly.

"Uh, Inspector Megure."

"Call Shoichi over immediately," Inspector Megure said. "Shoichi is also a suspect in this case, so there's reason for him to come and cooperate with the police."

"Yes!"

Inspector Megure straightened his collar.

The public must know that the Metropolitan Police Department is absolutely not anyone's lackey.

Inspector Megure looked in Koda's direction.

I was puzzled as to why his face had darkened. Did he think I was faking it?

……

"Do I have to go over there to cooperate with the investigation again?"

"Yes, please."

"It's okay." Zheng Yi got into the police car again.

I don't know why, but no matter what kind of car I'm in, none of them are as comfortable as a police car.

"Takagi, how is Sato?" Masakazu asked.

“Sato has woken up and is recovering well,” Takagi said.

Zheng Yi nodded: "Speaking of which, because many people suspect that I am the mastermind, it is not convenient for me to visit Sato."

“Uh, Sato has never thought that way,” Takagi said.

"really?"

Masakazu stared at Takagi with a deep gaze, while Takagi chose to remain silent and focus on driving.

The car quickly arrived at Yoshikazu Mikan's house.

As soon as Zheng Yi got out of the car, he immediately became the center of attention.

"You guys continue your investigation, don't worry about me," Zheng Yi said casually, and sat down in the chair that someone had brought for him.

The car company manager came to Zheng Yi's side and said, "All the stolen gems have been found."

"That's good." Zheng Yi nodded.

Zheng Yi, with his legs crossed, saw the people from the Metropolitan Police Department leading a search and rescue dog over.

"Mr. Zhengyi, do you remember me?"

"Who are you?" Zheng Yi asked in confusion.

Amuro Tooru's eyes flickered. "It's nothing. I'm just a salesperson who recently joined the company."

"Oh, work hard," Zheng Yi encouraged the blond handsome guy.

Amuro Toru nodded.

It seems that Zheng Yi has completely forgotten about the invitation he was given to be the general manager.

Zheng Yi yawned.

His favorite character is Tooru Amuro.

To get others to work hard, you need to appeal to their emotions and reason with them, but Amuro Tooru is a born workaholic.

After Masakazu arrived, Koda was the one who felt most uneasy.

He was initially very interested in finding his father's body.

He doesn't want to anymore.

If the father's body is found, could he become the murderer?
Kogoro Mouri has a notorious reputation; he could very well be labeled a patricide and end up in prison.

His family fortune will definitely be swallowed up by Zheng Yi.

“Woof woof! Woof woof!”

The search and rescue dog suddenly started barking wildly, and everyone present held their breath.

Both Yoshikazu Watanuki and Koda's hearts began to race simultaneously.

No! Please don't!
The search and rescue dog ran out of Yoshikazu Mikan's yard and kept circling around a spot on the construction site next door.

The well-equipped police officers approached and began digging.

"The body has been found."

Zheng Yi stood up.

Yoshikazu Watanuki and Koda collapsed to the ground simultaneously; they were finished.

"Everyone, move aside." Forensic pathologist Chang Zongqing cleared the others away.

Now, we've entered his area of ​​expertise.
