Chapter 633 Not a Simple Girl

On Monday, January 4th, in the afternoon, Kuboto-cho Commercial Street.

Conan ran away from Yuantai and his party, turned on the tracking function of the tracking glasses immediately after turning a corner, looked at the moving light spots on it, and thought a little excitedly, that man is wearing a thousand-day phone with a transmitter sticker on it. The dollar bill is gone, and then I just need to use this tracking glasses to follow, maybe this guy can lead me to the lair of those men in black.

About ten minutes later, the signal stopped moving. A few minutes later, Conan arrived there and found that it was a grocery store outside the station. He immediately had a bad feeling, so he asked the boss if anyone had a Thousands of yen to buy things.

The grocery store owner said: "Yes, that man's attitude is very cold, and there is a strange sticker on the 1000 yen bill. He is a strange man."

Conan asked, "So, do you know where that man went?"

"Well," the grocery store owner said after thinking for a while, "after he bought a can of coffee, he went over there to make a public phone call. He piled up the change on the phone and talked on the phone for a long time until the change I think about ten minutes until it's all used up."

Conan asked, "Did he ask you to exchange the change for coffee into 100-yen and 10-yen coins?"

The grocery store owner said: "But I ran out of 100-yen coins, so I used a 500-yen coin to find him 890 yuan."

I remember that the change that the man was looking for in the convenience store was 770 yen, that is, one 500-yen coin, two 100-yen coins, one 50-yen coin, and two 10-yen coins. If you add the 890 yuan you found at the canteen, you can use it to make calls, five 100-yen coins and eleven 10-yen coins, a total of 610 yen, no, if the man If you already have some small change on your body, there will be more. However, based on the 610 yen, he only made a phone call for about ten minutes, so it should be a long-distance call. Could it be that he took the tram to a distant place and met the person he was talking to? No, if you use a public phone to call a mobile phone, the local call will cost ten yen for nine seconds, Conan sighed, there are not enough clues.

At this time, a cleaner handed Conan a fifty-yen coin, saying that the man dropped it, "Do you know that man, he was in a hurry just now, and the change given to him by the ticket machine was missing One, this fifty-yen coin."

Conan asked, "Where is the ticket machine?"

The cleaner said, "It's on the Dongdu Line over there."

Conan asked, "Then do you know which key he pressed?"

"Well, I saw him put in a 500-yen coin, and a handful of change came out jingling, I didn't pay attention to which key it was." The cleaner said, "That's it, please put it Give it back to him."

"I'll go right away." Conan said, and then ran to the ticket vending machine and thought about it. Since it fell out clangingly, there should be more than three small change. He chose to put in a 500 yen coin, and the small change might fall out Where there are three or more and include a fifty-yen coin.

Conan looked at the ticket prices at each station, figured out that it was Otoma Station, and then bought a ticket to get on the tram. ...

Outside Otoma Station.

Conan asked around for the man with the black hat, but no one said he had seen it. Then he found a real estate company. Thinking that the purpose of those people was to make fake money, he went to the manager and asked if anyone rented a remote place. place that will attract attention.

"Please, this is Tokyo, one of the most densely populated places in the world. Except for the places that are waiting to be demolished and built, where are there usually no people." The manager said, "Okay, kid, come with your friends." Go play somewhere else, don't disturb our work here."

"Friend?" Conan asked suspiciously, and then found Yuantai and his party walking in.

"Hey, hey." Yuan Tai smiled, "We won't fall for the same trick every time."

Mitsuhiko said with a smile: "It can be said that sneaking around is your specialty."

Conan asked suspiciously: "Why are you here?"

"It was Haibara-san who reminded me," Ayumi said with a smile, "She said that Conan you dumped us because you wanted to solve the incident by yourself."

Why? Conan looked at the expressionless Haibara Ai, but he couldn't tell that this guy was a little clever.

At this time, Jun Okano also asked the manager: "Excuse me, are there any novelists living around here?"

"Novelist?" Conan asked. "What's the matter?"

Jun Okano also said: "After my brother disappeared, I once called home."

"What!" Conan yelled, "Why didn't you say such a thing earlier."

"Because it happened to be my grandma who answered the phone, her hearing is not good, and my brother spoke so fast, so I didn't hear what was said." Okano Jun also said, "She said she seemed to be listening, my brother said What is he doing with someone who looks like Natsume Soseki?"

"With someone who looks like Natsume Soseki?" Conan asked, "Did you tell the police about this?"

Okano Jun also said: "I said it, but I haven't found such a person until now."

"Okay," Mitsuhiko said, "Your brother likes that Soseki, so don't worry."

"But," Jun Okano said with some fear, "but grandma said that my brother's voice trembled, and the phone was cut off midway."

That's it, Conan thought, it seems that he secretly called those guys behind his back, and the phone was cut off after he was discovered.

"If you're looking for someone who looks like Natsume Soseki, there's one nearby," the manager said with a smile. "It's the manager of the bookstore on the corner, nicknamed 'Thousand-Yen Notes'."

Yuantai and the three were overjoyed, "It's him, please take us there." Then they dragged the manager away.

Limu Bookstore.

After the manager led the way, he stood at the door. The three of Genta and Jun Okano also went to find the store manager. Conan slipped to the back of the bookstore while the store manager was not paying attention. Haibara Ai took a book and read it casually. stand up.

The three Yuantai and Jun Okano also asked the store manager, but they were yelled at when they mentioned the thousand-yen bill, "Are you kidding me, what are the thousand-yen bills, don't make fun of adults, get out of here." coaxed out.

"It's scary." Ayumi said, patting her chest.

Yuan Tai complained: "What is that old man doing?"

"It's suspicious." Mitsuhiko said.

"No, I don't think it has anything to do with this bookstore. I checked the warehouse at the back, and there is no printing press." Conan walked out.

"As for the printing press, the newspaper office in front of the station has recently introduced a new one, which is the newspaper office on the third floor of the building next to the police station, which was also rented out by us two years ago," the manager said.

Conan asked, "Do you know what kind of people are there?"

The manager said: "There is a female president who always wears a black wide-brimmed hat. It's a small newspaper. She prints some advertisements for the local people." Then he looked at his watch, "Okay, I have something to do, you guys Come home early, too." After saying that, he left.

Yuan Tai asked: "Could it be this newspaper?"

Mitsuhiko said, "But this has nothing to do with Soseki, does it?"

"Soseki pillow flow is a famous story, and it is also the origin of the name 'Soseki', which means 'weird'. Don't ordinary people rinse their mouths next to the water and use stones as pillows? Do the opposite It’s those weirdos.” Conan touched his chin and said, “Generally, if people want to make fake money, they would do so in the suburbs where they can’t be seen, but those guys set up their location in front of the bustling station, and next to the police station. It may seem very strange at first glance, but there is no other place where the blind spots of the police can be used better than here. I think that must be what Shunya's brother wants to convey."

Jun Okano also asked with some expectation: "Then brother..."

Conan said: "If my reasoning is correct, your brother is probably in that newspaper office."

"Then let's go to the police as soon as possible." Ayumi said, and then ran to the police station first.

Genta and his team told the two police officers on duty that the newspaper staff had abducted Okano Hiroya, who could draw Natsume Soseki, and made a fake 1,000 yen, but the police didn't believe their words, thinking it was because they watched too much TV.

So, Conan took a group of people out of the police station, then asked them to wait, and went to the phone booth to make a call.

telephone booth.

Conan used a voice changer and called the Megure Police Department with his own voice, saying that he accidentally saw someone using fake 1,000 yen on the street, so he followed him and found that they were printing in the newspaper office in front of Otoma Station. Fake money, led by a woman in black, who may have hostages.

After making the phone call, Conan returned to the gate of the police station and found that Genta and the others had disappeared. He asked the police with a bad feeling, and when he learned that they had indeed entered the newspaper office, he rushed in immediately.

At this time, several voices shouting "Help" came from inside the newspaper office. The two policemen blinked, looked at each other, and ran into the newspaper office. ...

On the other side, a little ahead of time, the entrance of the police station.

When Conan left, Yuantai raised her triangular eyes, "I don't know why, the more Conan tells me not to go, the more I want to go."

"Me too." Mitsuhiko and Ayumi agreed.

So, Genta and the others took Okano Toshiya and Haibara Ai to break into the newspaper office, chose a random room to enter, and found that it was a printing room.

Hui Yuanai went to look around, then glanced at the monitor on the ceiling, and opened the window.

The three of Yuantai and Jun Okano also searched and found a piece of paper with dozens of coins printed on it, but there were no portraits on those coins, so they were fake at first glance.

At this time, a woman in black wearing a wide-brimmed hat came over with three men, "arrest them all."

"What, what should I do?" Yuan Tai asked in fear.

"Call for help, speak louder." Haibara Ai said, so Genta, Ayumi, Mitsuhiko, and Okano Toshiya also yelled loudly.

Glancing at the opened glass, the woman in black said angrily: "Damn kid, go." Then she turned and left, and the others followed suit.

"What's going on?" Ayumi asked.

"Why did they leave like this?" Mitsuhiko asked.

"Because the police are coming." Hui Yuanai said.

At this time, Conan and two policemen ran in, and the three of Yuantai immediately showed the printed fake coins, and then, together with Okano Junya, followed them to see how the police caught the bad guys.

"It's too late. One of the most important things in making counterfeit money is the special ink used for coinage. It can be destroyed in a short time. These coins that look fake at first glance can't constitute a criminal offense." Hui Yuanai said to himself, and then He looked at the window and snorted softly, "I'm doing illegal activities next to the police station, and I can't even bear to install a one-piece reinforced glass wall with sound insulation and bulletproof functions. At best, I'm just a little clever fish and shrimp." After finishing speaking, he walked out printing room.

Outside, the two policemen had already controlled the situation, or the five people, the woman in black and the three men, the man in the black hat, and an old man with an arm injury did not resist, and Junya Okano also I saw his brother Okano Hiroya, but the woman in black did not admit that she was doing illegal things here, and Okano Hiroya also had an employment relationship.

"Stop quibbling," Conan said, "The man with the hanging arm is the real painter, right? The work in the printing room is his, but he was injured when he was about to finish the job, so you go and tie him up. Toshiya’s older brother whom I met at the exhibition, asked him to help you paint. The paint in the printing room and the container containing the magnetic iron powder, you prepared these things to fool the machine, right? Just pass the money Once the identification machine is passed, you can use the fake money that looks hard to distinguish from the real to the fake to exchange a large amount of cash through the currency exchange machines in banks, racetracks, and small steel ball shops. far away."

"Ha..." The woman in black laughed loudly, "Little friend, you watch too much TV. If banknotes can be made casually like this, the world will already be full of fake banknotes."

"Others may not be able to, but you," Mu Mu Police Department led a team in, "It seems that you are back to your old job."

"It turned out to be the Mumu police department of the first class. I don't know what I committed, but I can thank you?" The woman in black asked with a smile.

"Fake money, abducted." Mumu Police Department said.

"I don't remember doing this before," said the woman in black.

"Then, how come there are your fingerprints on the counterfeit money on the market?" Meguro Police Department asked.

"This is his business, you just take him away." The woman in black said.

"Big, big sister!" the man in the black hat exclaimed.

"Shut up, you idiot did this by yourself, turn yourself in." The woman in black said.

"Surrender yourself?" The man in the black hat responded, "Yes, yes, Mr. Police Department, I surrendered. I did this, but I just printed some banknotes casually. I didn't expect those people to accept them without even looking at them." As he spoke, he stepped forward and stretched out his hands.

Asking the man in the black hat to be handcuffed, the Mumu Police Department asked the woman in black: "So, what about abduction?"

"If it's about Koya," the woman in black took out a piece of paper, "This is Okano Koya's employment contract, which is completely set according to the salary standard of the confidential job."

"No, that's not the case." Hiroshi Okano also said hastily, "They forced me to sign, and they didn't let me call or go home."

"What's going on here?" Megumo Police Department asked.

"I didn't force him, he signed it himself, and the contract clearly states that confidentiality must be kept during work." The woman in black said, "And I don't remember calling Junye's house, yes His family is blackmailing, so why talk about abduction." Then he said to his subordinates, "Which one of you secretly did such illegal things behind my back, stand up now."

"No, we haven't done it." The men in black denied it one after another.

"That's it, Mumu Police Department, you have to find out, don't wrong a good person." The woman in black smiled, then glanced at Yuantai and his party, and said, "As for these children, I would like to pursue them for illegal crimes." The responsibility of breaking in, entering my club quietly and rummaging things, thieves? But forget it, for their young age, let them go once."

"Then what about the version of the money they have?" Mumu Police Department asked.

"Is that considered money?" The woman in black sneered, "I'm afraid only idiots would accept it."

"Then why are you printing this?" Megure Police Department asked.

"Just for fun," said the woman in black.

Megure Police Department asked Okano Hiroshi, "What kind of work did they let you do?"

"Of course it's painting." The woman in black said.

"I didn't ask you." Mumu Police Department said.

"They asked me to draw," Okano Hiroshi also said, "I painted Natsume Soseki on the 1,000 yen price over and over again, and Fukuzawa Yukichi on the 10,000 yen price."

Mu Mu Police Department asked: "Then what did they say they were going to do?"

"That's not true," Okano Hiroshi also said, "I've been alone in a room, and I only see them when they come to deliver food."

"Look, Mumu Police Department, I didn't abuse him." The woman in black laughed.

"Then what happened to you with those paintings?" Mumu Police Department asked.

"Those paintings are too bad, so they are all destroyed." The woman in black said, "I used Rang Hao to draw people as if I wanted to publish them in the newspaper. I actually came up with a column that taught people how to identify banknotes. "

"Ha, I just want to laugh when I hear your words." Mumu Police Department said that he wanted to laugh, but there was no smile on his face.

"Okay, Mumu Police Department, if there is nothing else, we are going to eat, and there is still work to do at night." The woman in black said.

"Then, you don't mind if we search this place?" Meguro Police Department said, "And your body."

"Please." The woman in black raised her hand and asked a female forensic officer to search, and her subordinates also asked the police to search, but nothing was found, so they had to leave.

Yuan Tai complained: "Let them go like this? They kidnapped Junye's brother."

"No way, it is legal to hire high school students, and there are no extortion calls, and people have not been abused. In addition, this employment contract will not be released unless it expires, or there is evidence to prove that this contract is under duress. Signed, otherwise, no matter what disputes arise, I will not be in charge." Mumu Police Department said helplessly.

"Brother?" Okano Toshiya said.

"There is no evidence." Hiroshi Okano also sighed.

Conan asked, "Hey, Police Department, who is she?"

"A criminal who specializes in how to counterfeit money is very cunning." Mumu Police Department said, "Except for the first time, everything else is the same as now, and she alone stood up to take the blame."

Conan asked, "Then is she organized?"

"She herself is the leader of their small gang." Mu Mu Police Department said, "I haven't heard that she has joined other organizations."

"I see." Conan said.

"Okay, I'll send someone to take you back." Mumu Police Department said, and then urged, "Don't run around next time."

"Yes!" Genta, Ayumi, and Mitsuhiko responded loudly.

They will definitely run around, Conan sighed in his heart.

Megure Police Department also said to Okano Hiroshi: "Go back and meet your family first, and then come to the Metropolitan Police Department tomorrow."

"Thank you police department." Hiroshi Okano also smiled.

Afterwards, the two police cars carried Hiroya Okano and Toshiya Okano respectively, the four members of the Boy Detective Team and Aihara Ai, Genta sat in the passenger seat, and Mitsuhiko, Conan, Ayumi, and Aihara Ai sat in the back row. Delivered to Koya Okano's home in Kabado-machi.

On the way, Conan heard Ayumi say that Haibara Ai opened the window of the newspaper office, and couldn't help but look again at Haibara Ai outside the car window, not bad, it seems that she is not a simple girl. ...;
