Conan Rick's Investigator

"I want you to pay for my son's life!"

Yasuharu Haneda suddenly tried to add a gun barrel to the armrest of the wheelchair, but fortunately, Tsutomu Akai next to him immediately hugged his body.

"Haneda!"

"I understand how you feel right now, but you can't let him die so easily!"

"We can get a lot of information about the organization from him!"

Akai Tsutomu's movements were not large, but very firm and powerful as he shook Haneda Yasuharu's shoulders.

Yuriko Matsunaka also lay on Haneda's knees, looking up with tears in her eyes.

"grandfather……"

Yasuharu Haneda looked at Akai Tsutomu in front of him, then looked down at Matsunaka Yuriko, and finally slowly loosened his right hand and closed his eyes in pain.

Qin Zhibo still stood there, keeping the gun pointed at Rum.

At this moment, the three men in the moonlight seemed to have returned to the Hawaiian beach 19 years ago.

It’s still the same three people in the photo, but things have changed.

Hiroshi Haneda, who took the photo for the three of them, is no longer here.

"Haha, so you want to avenge that genius shogi player?"

At this time, Rum sneered and continued to make sounds.

"I didn't want to kill him originally, but he took the initiative to reveal the boss's name in order to protect that woman, so I had to kill him."

"His name is Haneda Koji!" Haneda Yasuharu roared.

But then he started coughing due to excessive exertion, and Akai Tsutomu quickly patted his back.

Rum let out a breath, glanced at Yasuharu Haneda, and did not respond.

He continued: "How ridiculous..."

"Haneda Hiroshi probably never dreamed that the woman he risked his life to protect was actually the boss's woman."

"In fact, not only him, but also I was deceived..."

A smile appeared on Rum's lips, but it was just a self-deprecating sneer.

Then, his identity trembled slightly and he sat down on the ground.

Qin Zhibo immediately realized something was wrong when he saw this and hurried forward to check.

Rum's breathing rhythm suddenly became disordered, and a small amount of blood came out of his nostrils.

The caliber of the bullet used by Yasuharu Haneda was very small, and it did not hit a fatal position, so such a reaction should not have occurred.

Qin Zhibo immediately realized that Rum must have taken poison.

And this is indeed the case.

The moment Rum saw his men being shot dead, he swallowed the poison that he had hidden in his mouth.

He could not accept being arrested by the police or being taken back for trial by the organization.

So he was ready to commit suicide at any time.

Qin Zhibo knew that there was no hope for Rum, so he seized the last moment to ask him questions.

"Is that woman you're talking about Rachel Asaka?"

"What is her identity?"

Qin Zhibo had already learned from James about Wakasa Rumi's disappearance.

If Asaka's identity is wrong, then Haibara Ai's disappearance is most likely caused by her, not Rum.

However, Rum sat on the ground, supporting himself with one hand, trying hard to keep his upper body from falling down, as if he would not say anything even if he was beaten to death.

Admittedly, he was disappointed with the boss.

But this does not mean that he will let the red side gain the advantage.

Qin Zhibo had long anticipated Rum's attitude. After all, he was the second-in-command of the organization. How could he possibly turn against them immediately?

Otherwise, Rum would not be so valued by the boss.

So Qin Zhibo took out the letter he had prepared long ago and held it in front of Rum.

"This is the letter your father wrote to you before he died. Don't you want to read it?"

The moment he saw the letter, Rum's right eye pupil widened instantly.

He raised the hand that was not supporting the ground and tried to grab the envelope.

But Qin Zhibo deftly pulled the letter back, making it impossible for him to catch it.

Seeing this, he curled his lips slightly, and blood seeped from between his teeth onto his lips.

"It was that woman...who took...Shirley away..."

"I don't know her identity...but she is definitely related to that ship..."

Rum kept panting and speaking intermittently.

Qin Zhibo waited for two seconds, and after confirming that his expression did not show a lie, he threw the letter at him.

The light envelope floated to the ground. Rum crawled to the letter like a stray dog, opened the envelope with trembling hands, and pulled out the letter.

At the beginning of the letter, Isegawa Tsuyoshi explains to the heir that his wealth did not come from legitimate sources, but was obtained with the help of evil forces.

Only the last sentence was what Isegawa Tsuyoshi wanted to say to his eldest son.

[Rum, your father is waiting for you in hell]

The moment Rum saw this sentence, his throat felt sweet, his eyes suddenly widened, and his right hand holding the letter fell outward.

Rum.

Pawn!

Please refer to Chapter 933 "The Son Inherits His Father's Business" for the full content of the letter.

Chapter 1471: The flaw in the cell phone video

In the moonlight, Rum lay on the cold floor tiles, holding the letter tightly in his hand.

His right eye was fixed on the words on the letter.

As the body temperature gradually dissipated, faintly glowing investigation spots appeared on Rum's body.

Yasuharu Haneda, who was sitting in a wheelchair at the back, saw that the shiny bald head stopped moving. He suddenly breathed a sigh of relief and leaned heavily against the backrest of the wheelchair.

After 17 years, he finally avenged his son.

At that moment, the heavy rock that was blocking his heart fell to the ground, and Yasuharu Haneda's tense nerves relaxed. He felt a itchy pain in his lungs and couldn't help coughing repeatedly.

"Cough cough..."

Akai Wuwu comforted him, "I'll take you away first, and leave the aftermath to Qin."

"Is everything okay, Qin?" He turned to look at Qin Zhibo and asked.

"Ah."

Qin Zhibo still stood in front of Rum's body and nodded.

After Akai Tsutomu pushed the wheelchair and sent Haneda Yasuharu and Matsunaka Yuriko out of the collection room, Qin Zhibo squatted down and took out the [Glass Bottle].

When Qin Zhibo learned about Rum's expulsion from the organization in the United States a few days ago, he had already guessed that Rum would find a way out for himself.

The huge wealth left behind by Isegawa Tsuyoshi was obviously his retreat.

And in his letter, Isegawa Tsuyoshi seemed to have predicted Rum's final fate long ago.

But then again, it was the first time that Qin Zhibo met this legendary second-in-command of the organization.

It turns out that his true appearance is a bald man wearing an eye patch.

Driven by curiosity, Qin Zhibo reached out and carefully lifted Rum's blindfold.

When the black eye mask was lifted, there was a shriveled pit underneath the mask, and the raised parts on the upper and lower sides were the brow bones.

No left eye?

Qin Zhibo lifted up Kailangm's eyelids and checked, and found that the injury inside was not an old one.

This indicates that Rum had recently undergone eye removal surgery.

Could this have anything to do with the "betrayal" he mentioned?

Since there is still information that is not known, Qin Zhibo plans to use the [Glass Bottle] to imprison Rum's soul first, and then find a place to slowly inquire about it.

But just as he took out the glass bottle and pointed it at Rum's body, a black light ball slowly rose from the body.

The soul of a normal person in a non-anthropomorphic state is white and almost translucent.

But Rum's soul is dirty black.

The ball of light symbolizing the soul of rum did not enter the mouth of the glass bottle, but shrank rapidly like a collapsing star.

Then, it suddenly exploded again, turning into black fireworks that scattered until they completely dissipated.

Rum's soul was reduced to ashes right before Qin Zhibo's eyes.

This is……

It was the first time that Qin Zhibo had seen such a situation and he couldn't help but be surprised.

He continued to try with the glass bottle, but no matter how hard he tried, he could no longer extract the soul from Rum.

The same thing happened when I took out the yellow paper used for communicating with spirits, and I still couldn't communicate with spirits.

Qin Zhibo thought about it for a while and guessed that this might be because the boss had cast some kind of curse on Rum's soul.

After all, for an organization cadre of Rum's level, once his soul is used after death, he will definitely leak many secrets that should not be leaked.

I wonder if they even considered this...

Qin Zhibo sighed lightly and could only put the glass bottle away.

Just then, his phone suddenly rang.

Qin Zhibo didn't even think about it and thought it was a call from Akai Wuwu, just calling to tell him that Haneda Yasuharu had settled in the car.

But as soon as he picked up the phone, a strange woman's voice came from the other end.

"Detective, do you remember me?"

The woman's voice was a little teasing, but it immediately made Qin Zhibo alert.

"who are you?"

"...You are so forgetful. It's only been a few months since we last met, but you've already forgotten me?"

"I'm Maya Tachibana."

The woman on the other end of the phone suddenly dropped her teasing tone and spoke in a serious tone.

Hearing this old name, Qin Zhibo was stunned, and his mind recalled the bloody tongue female killer who planned to assassinate Maori Kogoro a long time ago.

After I caught her, I let her go on the condition that she would provide me with information about Bloody Tongue.

Afterwards, she provided herself with information about the killer "Silver Fox" and disappeared for a long time.

Of course, in the ordinary people's concept of time, it may not have disappeared for too long...

"It's you……"

"Is there something you want to talk about?"

Qin Zhibo still remembered the agreement at that time, that if there was any information about the Bloody Tongue's movements and some potentially useful information, he would provide it to him.

"Of course there is something..."

"Listen carefully. I recently received some news that some assassin organizations including the Bloody Tongue are about to launch a major operation."

"Just a few days ago, I was ordered to bring several Voodoo members to Japan."
