Not the same person, not the Wen Dynasty.Due to the dimness of the surroundings, Zhizhi has not been able to find that the girl tied to the pillar is a girl who wears the same clothes as Wen Dai.Ah, it's so fast, when did people get replaced? What was even more astonishing was that the girl in front of her was not a stranger, but Taeko Tamamura who was supposed to be recuperating in the ward of Omori Surgical Hospital. Like Wendai just now, Taeko was tied to the pillar layer by layer with ropes, just like Akechi did to Wendai just now.Her mouth was also blocked, and she could neither speak nor move. She looked at the two helplessly with teary eyes with her pale face.

Seeing this, Zhizhi and Erlang were stunned with an "ah". "Hahaha, finally saw the skills of a magician! Even the well-informed famous detective is not calm." The devil's ugly face was distorted, and he smiled viciously, and the gun in his hand was quickly pressed against Taeko's side.The situation was reversed in an instant, and Wisdom was threatened. It was later known that Taeko Tentamura felt that she was mostly healed, and when she was bored, she left the ward and went for a walk in the courtyard.As soon as the nurse was inattentive, Taeko disappeared and was nowhere to be found.

Taeko hadn't returned to the ward until dusk. She called Tamamura's home to inquire, but she said she hadn't come home either.The hospital immediately notified the police and sent a search team to search around, causing quite a commotion.No one would have guessed that Taeko had been tied up in this single-family house by the sea. As I said earlier, there is a long box that looks like a coffin in the room next to the entrance, but Taeko is actually inside.The devil's subordinates took advantage of Zhizhi to enter the depths of the house, and quickly exchanged Wendai tied to the pillar with Taeko in the coffin.This is the vanity of the magician, who will use his tricks to deliberately frighten the famous detective.

"It's wonderful, as expected of a magician, with superb skills. Compared with yours, my pranks can only fool children!" Zhizhi smiled instead of being annoyed. The more he laughed, the more vigorous he was, and even threw the gun to the ground. The demon's men quickly pocketed their guns. "Hey, why is that thing so precious? It's a toy gun picked up from the backstage of your magic show." A look of embarrassment flashed across the young man's face, but he still pretended not to care, and argued: "If we don't have props, how will we perform tomorrow?"

"Speaking of which, between us, judging from the current situation, which side do you think has a better chance of winning? You are not a fool, you should be able to judge such an obvious situation, right?" Wisely did not take the devil's subordinates seriously, Boldly challenge the boss. "I have weapons and hostages, but you are unarmed." The demon retorted calmly. "Perhaps you forgot about the police surrounding the house?" "Before those people broke in, Taeko would die first. If this girl's life was exchanged, it would be a good deal."

"Hahaha, don't lie. Look, how pale you are. Could it be that you have worked hard for forty years for Ms. Taeko alone? Your goal should not be Taeko. You are not the kind of person who can think hard and work hard After so many years, you gave up halfway and went to the guillotine. Hahaha, is this deal a good deal? You are simply losing money." When the villain was mentioned in pain, he was suddenly speechless, and his face turned blue and white. "Okay, now that you know everything, I won't be brave. Why don't we make a deal and give in to each other. In fact, I don't know how to deal with this attack. If Taeko hadn't been brought here in advance, this I’m afraid I’m on the verge of death. Thanks to this girl, I barely survived. Well, I’ll sell Taeko. Calm down, too, and make an offer.”

As expected of a devil, he didn't hesitate at all, very simply. "In exchange for your freedom? What if I don't accept it?" "Then I'll shoot with a bang and die with Taeko. At worst, I'll leave this world." "This transaction is too expensive, but Miss Taeko's life is indeed irreplaceable. I promise, you are free." "You don't know how to play tricks, do you?" "Hahaha, do you mean that I changed back to Ms. Taeko, but instead arrested you? Don't worry, even if I deal with a demon like you, my moral and cleanliness will not allow me to do this. Here, let go of her quickly." rope."

"But, how do you convince the guy who is ambushing outside the house? The police can't agree to this deal." "Hahaha, why are you becoming more and more useless? Leave it to me, you just need to escape through the back door, and I will gather all the policemen to the front door." In the end, a peculiar deal was negotiated. Taeko finally regained her freedom, and her brother Erlang held her in his arms.The two villains and Wen Dai, who was hidden in another room, supported each other and fled to the back door. "Hey, treat Miss Wen Dai well, it's a pity, you are not worthy to be her father at all!"

Akechi couldn't help but yelled at the villain's back.Letting Wen Dai go with them, Ming Zhi felt regretful in his heart, but he couldn't stop the devil father from taking his daughter away. Before the demons could walk out the back door, Akechi rushed to the front door and blew the assembly whistle.All the police officers surrounding the house gathered. "Everyone, the demon has hid in a room. The light is too dark, I can't see clearly, and the other party has a gun, please be careful." All the police officers raised their alert and searched one after another. Needless to say, the gang of thieves took the opportunity to escape into the night and never disappeared.
