Conan reborn as a detective

Chapter 1021 "15 Minutes of Silence"

A small truck was downstairs in the office, and the cake factory employees in overalls hurried upstairs with boxes.

"I'm sorry to make you have a hard time." Gao Cheng took the box at the stairs and said, "How about the factory?"

"Everything is going well," the employee looked at Gao Cheng expectantly, "The rest is just waiting for Detective Kido to try it."

Gao Cheng opened the package face to face, and inside were several types of cakes newly researched by the master of the original honey cake factory.

The new cake factory is managed by the team of the Suzuki consortium, and he took a position as a tasting consultant. After all, the new cake will be promoted in his name.

"Well," Gao Cheng took a sip in the same way, "The taste is not bad, so that's it, let's start with the second sweet and sour flavor to conduct market research, next month's "Dessert Master" will almost be officially released. "

"Thank you very much." The employee got a satisfactory answer, happily asked Gao Cheng to sign, and then drove away in a pickup truck.

"In the future, you can eat cakes openly."

Gao Cheng watched the truck go away, also very satisfied.

He has been looking forward to this cake factory for several days, from the beginning of December to the winter vacation at the end of the month.

The operation of the cake factory was much more troublesome than he had expected. Even with ready-made skilled workers, there were still many things to prepare.

The TV in the office has not been turned off yet, and the news of the opening of Dongto Line No. 15 is still being broadcast live. The reporter is interviewing Governor Asakura on the train.

"What? You said there was a bomb?!" Megumi, who received a call from Kudo Shinichi nearby, suddenly changed his face.

"Stop the tram quickly!"

"Stop! There's a bomb!"

Sato, who was near the driver's cab, hurriedly called Takagi, crossed the carriage and rushed outside the driver's cab to stop the tram.

The sound of emergency braking resounded piercingly in the tunnel, and at the same time, all the cars in the Shin Yamate tunnel below were stopped by Conan who was on a skateboard.

A few seconds later, before the tram could stop, there was a violent explosion in front of it, and a large hole was opened in the tunnel instantly. Under the impact of the explosion, the tram completely lost control and rushed into the lane below.

"boom--!"

"Ok?"

Gao Cheng returned to the office and prepared to eat the rest of the cake. When it was brought to his lips, he found that the video of the news interview had been interrupted. For some reason, the TV station lost contact with the reporter on the scene, and had to switch to the commercial time temporarily.

"What?"

……

The Metropolitan Police Department conference room, the press conference is in progress.

"The gangsters used plastic bombs and used remote control to start the timer..."

At the meeting site, besides the Minister of Criminal Affairs, Megure, Shiratori, and the redundant Uncle Maori were sitting on the rostrum, but only Meguro was speaking, and the uncle sat on the side stupidly.

Regarding asking him to attend the press conference, the uncle was at a loss until now.

Shiratori explained to many reporters: "According to Edogawa Conan who witnessed the prisoner, it seems that the prisoner pressed the remote control switch after confirming that the subway passed by above. The speed of the subway is 60 kilometers per hour. The emergency stop where the prisoner is located , 250 meters from the bomb..."

"Excuse me," a reporter raised his hand and asked, "Who is the person who called Police Officer Megure and asked to stop the tram?"

"Uh, about that..."

Mu Mu thought of Kudo Shinichi's request to keep it secret, and was a little stuck for a while.

"We can only disclose that it is a partner of the police," said Criminal Minister Toshiro Odagiri. "In short, as far as the results are concerned, all the passengers in the car, including Governor Asakura, were unscathed. In addition, because of Conan's child Assistance, and no vehicles in the underground tunnel were affected by the explosion, which can only be described as a miracle."

"Why did that Conan kid notice the bomb?" A reporter asked.

"It is said that Kogoro Mori told him in advance that there might be a bomber." Megure explained.

"You really deserve to be a famous Maori detective."

"Simply predictable."

The reporters at the scene looked at the dazed uncle with admiration, and continued to ask in the uncle's confused look: "Mr. Mao Li, can you express your opinion on the gangster?"

"what?"

The uncle originally planned to pass by, but when he heard that cold sweat broke out on his forehead, he couldn't refuse everyone's expectant eyes, so he could only force himself to cough lightly.

"The purpose of the criminal's crime this time is not only to take the life of Governor Asakura, but also to destroy the major construction that the governor promoted in his second term, which is the new subway line in Toei! I can only say that he committed a crime. Unforgivable!"

"How much do you know about the criminals so far?"

"Uh……"

"Unfortunately," Shiratori took the initiative to help the uncle out, "The monitor installed in the tunnel did not capture the emergency parking curve where the gangster was located. We speculate that the gangster escaped from the emergency exit via the slope to the main road on the ground. , but no witnesses have been found so far."

"Conan also said that he couldn't see the gangster's appearance, age and gender..."

"The motive for the crime should be unilateral dissatisfaction and resentment towards Governor Asakura's administration in the past four years. Our police will investigate in this direction."

"The press conference ends here."

Gao Chenggong was at the scene, watching the few people standing up and leaving the meeting, many reporters also dispersed one after another.

He was indeed negligent in this case. He didn't expect to have such an intersection with Conan, and the criminal's handwriting was a bit big.

How bad is Japan's bomb control in Conan World?

"Brother Chenghu," Mu Mu approached Gao Cheng after the meeting, "Let's talk in the office first. To be honest, I didn't expect things to turn out like this. The prisoner would choose to attack the Eastern Metropolis Line."

"The motive is really like what was stated in the threatening letter," Gao Cheng wondered, "Is it dissatisfaction with Governor Asakura's administration during his first four years in office?"

"Governor Asakura's first term was indeed very good, that's why he was re-elected, but after all, not everyone is satisfied, there will always be resentment in people's hearts," Mumu pondered, "and the governor can't be offended in other ways people."

"I think it is possible to cover up the real motive of the crime," Gao Cheng analyzed. "The timing of the threatening letter was too coincidental. It was just the day before the operation. Why did you send the threatening letter at this time? From the perspective of criminal behavior, it is completely It doesn't make sense, if you want to create panic, you can do it some time in advance."

"Could it be because the police don't have much time to commit crimes?" Mu Mu asked in a daze.

"It's still very problematic."

Gao Cheng shook his head.

"I don't understand, but if there is really resentment, I think it may be that when Governor Asakura was the Minister of Land, Infrastructure and Transport, when he was the Minister, he once moved a certain village for the construction of a reservoir."

"You're talking about the Kitanosawa Reservoir, right?" Meguro crossed his fingers and sat down, "I also know about this, but at that time Governor Asakura visited the village in person and prepared a high deposit and suitable housing. alternative regions,
In order to get the consent of the villagers, the governor stayed in the village for a week and had a sincere talk with every villager, and finally he was trusted by the villagers. Now the development there is very good. "

"That's right," Gao Cheng nodded, "It's just that according to the news reports at the time, some villagers seemed to firmly oppose it... I plan to go to that village to investigate."

"Alright..."

"Speaking of it," Takagi said from the side, "next Sunday seems to be the commemorative ceremony for the 5th anniversary of the relocation of the village in New Kita Nosawa Village. The governor originally planned to attend and stay overnight."

"The governor has canceled the itinerary, and I must be worried about this," Mumu said in a deep voice, "I will trouble you, Brother Kido, if it is really like your analysis, the reservoir may also be damaged. The criminals are destroying... let Takagi follow you."

"Ah?" Takagi pointed at himself in surprise, "Me? But Officer Sato..."

"What happened to Sato?" Meguro asked strangely.

"No, it's fine."

Takagi smiled resentfully, his brows were twisted together in worry, with a troubled look on his face.
