Chapter 31 Chapter 31: The Man Who Climbs the Rain Pipe

At the moment Wen Dai was kidnapped, two policemen were patrolling together on a wasteland in the south of Minato-ku, Tokyo.The ruins after the raging war can be seen everywhere here, so desolate. "No one comes here to build a house." "Well, I hate this place the most in the district. Especially the building that was hit by fire over there, it's quite weird, the residents have changed one after another, and some people even call it a haunted house in this area." "Hehe, haunted house... This kind of house is most likely to be used by bad guys." "That's right. That's why I always pay special attention to it... Oh, look, there is movement around the corner of that building! Something black is falling down little by little."

The two were taken aback and stopped.The "haunted house," as they call it, is a three-story building that stands in the shape of a troll in a once war-torn wasteland.The facing bricks on the outer wall were severely damaged, and it was quite shabby, but the interior was renovated and became an office of a certain company, which doubled as a staff dormitory. Looking closely, a person slid down the long rainwater pipe. The window on the third floor was open, and that person probably climbed out from there.Climbing the rainwater pipe in the middle of the night, no matter how suspicious it looks, it is obviously impossible to be a resident, and it is most likely a thief!The police approached quietly, so as not to startle the snake.This man's skill is no less than that of an acrobat, and he fell smoothly, without noticing the situation on the ground at all. He let go at a height of about two meters from the ground, jumped into the grass, and staggered a few steps back— ——It was too late and then quickly, a police officer rushed forward and grabbed him.

"Who are you! What are you doing here!" the police officer twisted the man's hand behind his back and shouted sharply. "Hush—keep your voice down." The man didn't rush, but instead ordered the policeman, as if he was giving a lesson to his subordinates.The police officers escorted him away quickly, and walked about a hundred meters. When he came to the back of a simple house, he said, "Oh, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I disturbed you... By the way , don’t you know me? Take a flashlight and take a look.” The police officer turned on the flashlight according to the words, stared at it for a while, and suddenly took a step back as if remembering something, and his attitude changed a hundred and eighty degrees: "Are you a wise detective? I saw you in the Metropolitan Police Department. "

"Exactly. I am Kogoro Akechi." "By the way, detective, what are you doing here so late?" "It's a long story. You probably have heard that I was kidnapped by the leader of the transparent monster. That building is the lair of the bad guys." "I'll just say it. So, the transparent monster gang is in there?" "That's right. I escaped through the window with great difficulty. If those people find out that I have escaped, they will also slip away. It is necessary to arrest people as soon as possible. But, just the two of you, I'm afraid I can't do anything with them, please contact me quickly Team leader Nakamura of the Metropolitan Police Department, I want to discuss countermeasures with the team leader face to face."

"Understood. Then please go to the police station with us and call the team leader's home. We both have to report the situation to the chief." Just like that, the three of them walked quickly through the deserted neighborhood under the darkness of night, and rushed to the police station not far away.
