Chapter 40 The Mysterious Ghost Brother
Chapter 40 The Mysterious Ghost Brother
Not everyone will apologize and correct their mistakes in a timely manner after doing something wrong. Because some people will refuse to admit their mistakes even if they are caught in the act, thinking that the other party will be helpless.
Takagi looked at the group of teenagers behind him. They were only in their early teens and had a long way to go in the future.
"If you don't want to have a criminal record, don't do anything you will regret. Age is nothing special, crime is crime. Do it now while there is still time, you guys."
Until the end, Takagi still tried to influence them with words.
But there is no misunderstanding here.
They will not kneel down and cry bitterly, regretting what they have done just because of these simple words.
"How verbose!"
A boy in a hat punched him.
However, Takagi dodged it well and grabbed the opponent with his backhand.
Could it be that when Conan saw this, he still thought that he didn't know how to fight? Perhaps only at this time, he could associate Takagi with the word "detective".
"Stop it, you guys!"
Gao Mu shouted sternly: "Do you have to wait until you do something you will regret before you know how to repent?"
The man who had always been smiling even when he was surrounded by them before, now looked quite imposing and indeed intimidated them.
The purple-clothed boy who was holding the knife in his hand seemed to remember something, and his hand trembled. Because of panic, the knife in his hand fell to the ground, and in the short quiet environment, it seemed particularly loud.
His voice trembled as he said, "We'll go with you. But, can you guarantee our safety?"
Gao Mu's expression became more serious.
He nodded solemnly and said, "As a police officer, I will naturally protect the personal safety of the people."
Takeda's words made Takagi realize the seriousness of the situation.
Robbery and theft are what most of the children in the ghost group do. Some of them also include beating, intimidation, and even murder.
Anyone who wants to betray the Ghost Group will be killed by Brother Ghost or have his men kill them, because only in this way can they become grasshoppers on the same rope.
And if he can't do it, Brother Gui will kill him, because he doesn't need timid people.
Brother Gui also gave the children of the Ghost Group a powerful weapon - "Juvenile Law".
"The person on the surveillance camera is you, right? Then where did you take this girl?"
The girl's photo was placed in front of him, causing him to tremble unconsciously.
"I, I don't know. They never stay in one place. Even though they said they would protect our safety, if Brother Gui finds out, we will be buried alive when we get out!"
Takeda clenched his hands together, lowered his head, and was very nervous and scared.
Buried alive?
Megure Jusan took out a photo of a boy and handed it to him, "Are you talking about him?"
Takeda was shocked when he saw it: "Hao, Haozhang!"
"I, I just heard it from other people. He was also a member of the Ghost Group and joined the group very early. Later I heard that he betrayed Brother Ghost and was buried alive. As for the rest, I really don't know."
It turned out to be the case.
"Why do you call him 'Ghost Brother'? Is it because there is the word 'ghost' in his name?"
Takeda shook his head, stretched out his right wrist and said, "There is a red ghost tattoo on Brother Gui's wrist. According to people who know him, the name of the ghost is 'Hannya'."
There are three types of Prajna tattoos: Laughing Prajna, White Prajna and Red Prajna.
Red Prajna is the most brutal of the three tattoos: there is no reason or excuse for killing people, just kill when you want to and eat them after killing, and the means are extremely cruel.
"Then how can we contact Brother Gui?"
"I, I don't know." Takeda's eyes wandered for a moment, "Even if I knew, I couldn't tell you. I would really die!"
He seemed to have imagined the scene of himself being buried alive, and how miserable and helpless he would be.
Megure Jusan looked at him and said in a gentle and persuasive way, "As long as we catch him, you won't have to be afraid anymore, right? Instead of waiting to leave and being worried, why not cooperate with us police to find him? Once he's caught, you won't have to be afraid of him anymore. Do you want to live cautiously all the time? And hide from the police?"
After hearing what the other party said, Takeda was silent for a long time, as if he was weighing the pros and cons.
Finally, he made his choice.
"It was Brother Gui who contacted us. He would list the wallets and notebooks he got on the Gui Group's exclusive trading website. As long as we made a request to buy, Brother Gui would contact us."
Kawanishi Mugui brought a notebook and placed it in front of him.
With trembling hands, Takeda entered the URL and was redirected to a page.
After screening the items, Takeda pointed his mouse at a wallet picture and said, "Those with the Goblin watermark on them were uploaded by Goblin. They have already been bought by someone else. If you want to contact him, you can only wait for new posts."
After saying this, Takeda refreshed the page and a new post happened to appear.
"Hurry up and tell me you want to buy it!"
After the message was sent, I quickly received a reply from Brother Gui: See you at Zhouxue Road, Chengchuan at 8pm.
Now, it is 1:24 am.
Zhouxue Road in Chengchuan is a very prosperous place. Eight o'clock in the evening is the prime time, and there are usually many pedestrians on the street.
It seems that the other party wants to use this to cover up their tracks.
However, this is also beneficial for the police. They can ambush in the crowd and it will be difficult for the other party to find them.
At the appointed time, Takeda stood at the intersection of four forked roads, waiting nervously for the other party to appear.
The others were assigned different tasks and were responsible for different positions, observing whether there were any suspicious people around.
Three minutes had passed since the agreed time, but the other party still hadn't arrived.
Could it be that the other party suddenly changed his mind?
At this moment, Takeda suddenly received a text message on his phone -
"Are you acting as bait now?"
Ghost, brother ghost!
Takeda was startled and looked around, wondering where the man had appeared.
A white motorcycle was driving through the crowd, scaring passers-by around it so much that they couldn't stop screaming and quickly dodged.
The other person was wearing a white helmet, with only his eyes exposed, so his appearance could not be seen clearly.
Brother Gui! It's Brother Gui!
Takeda's legs felt weak, and his whole body seemed to be fixed by super glue.
Seeing that the motorcycle was about to rush towards him, his brain seemed to short-circuit and he had no idea how to react.
“Get out of the way—”
Gao Mu quickly pushed him aside.
"Brother Ghost, Brother Ghost, it's Brother Ghost! He will kill me, he will kill me!"
Takeda was still in shock and his whole body was shaking.
"Calm down!"
Gao Mu held his shoulders and said firmly: "We will definitely catch Brother Gui, and we will never let anything happen to you, I promise!"
Most criminals start committing crimes during their teenage years, which means that adolescence is the beginning of crime and the only golden time to prevent it. If you treat someone too kindly and leniently just because he is a teenager, it will only be a form of connivance and help, and he may commit a bigger crime in the future.
This is what Kawanishi Mugui said to him at Jinghu Station, and it was also said to Qinghai Chuantang. Bringing a child here, who is not even in junior high school, if someone is not careful, there is a risk of death at any time.
Although they are also a group of children, precisely because they are minors and many of them do not even have stable and mature outlooks on life, it is easy for them to make irreparable mistakes.
If someone else was present at the time, an ordinary person.
The knife in Takeda's hand might have stabbed into his stomach.
What Takagi wants to do most now is to catch Ghost Brother and prevent more teenagers from being led astray by him.

Unfortunately, the other motorcycle was running too fast and he couldn't catch up with him.
Everyone looked serious in the meeting.
This is not a simple case of running away from home and murder.
"Theft, shoplifting, and honey traps mainly occur in commercial areas. In addition, the fingerprints on the murder weapon found on Pianli Mountain were compared and found to be those of Mr. Youhuang's daughter. Regarding this, I hope everyone will keep it strictly confidential and don't tell him."
"Because the bodies were found in Pianli Mountain, it is very likely that they live nearby. So everyone should search around Pianli Mountain first to see if you can find their whereabouts. Remember to be careful and hidden. Once you find relevant clues, immediately request support, and never act alone. Do you understand?"
He didn't want his companions to get hurt.
There was once such a colleague who went alone to track down the whereabouts of the murderer and was eventually killed by the murderer. Although the murderer is different from the children, even if we are facing a group of children this time, we cannot underestimate them because of this.
Sometimes, the more harmless something looks, the more dangerous and deadly it is.
"The bodies were found at Pianli Mountain. These immature girls are at the bottom of the food chain, and the kid called 'ghost' is certainly aware of this. So we only saw boys before, no girls. Because girls only show up when help is needed."
Qinghai Chuantang drew a circle on the map with a pen, and the name of this place was - Haopianshan.
It is some distance away from Pianli Mountain, but the two are separated by a distance and can also be called "neighbors."
"For the rest of the time, I may be imprisoned in this place, just like a pyramid scheme. Now I just need to contact the police, and maybe we can catch that 'ghost' soon."
As he spoke, Qinghai Chuantang took out his cell phone.
"do not want!"
When she was about to make the call, Conan stopped her.
"If the police arrive, there will definitely be a commotion. You will only alert the enemy. If the 'ghost' gets away, it may be difficult to find him later. Because the other party will be on guard and will be more careful!"
Qinghai Chuantang glanced at him and said, "So what do you think we should do?"
Conan obviously already had an idea in mind and was just waiting for the other party to ask this question.
So, he said without hesitation: "Sister Xiaotang, ask your father to come over, won't everything be fine?"
Qinghai Chuantang was silent for a long time.
It's just like this sometimes: You reap what you sow.
The final outcome tells us: Don’t recognize relatives randomly
