Chapter 295: 1200 million hostages that shocked the Metropolitan Police Department (16)

Mao Lilan gently patted Suzuki Sonoko, who was lying on the desk and sighing, and asked with concern: "How was the math test you just took? How did you feel?"

Suzuki Sonoko sighed, her face full of worry: "Not so good, I can't compare with you. I don't have a strong helper like you." She said, and deliberately imitated the tone of Mao Lilan, with a bit of ridicule: "During the exam, didn't you always glance at Shinichi's empty seat in confusion? You must be shouting in your heart, 'Help me, Shinichi. I can't solve this calculus problem.' Right?"

[Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya, are high school courses and exams so difficult?

Ayumi Yoshida, looking at Sister Sonoko, looks so decadent.

Genta Kojima can even make jokes about Sister Xiaolan and seem to be fine.

Haibara Ai, young ladies from wealthy families probably don’t have to work as hard as I do!

Suzuki Sonoko, you don't know how high the academic requirements are in wealthy families.

Conan, you don't need calculus to manage the family business, right? 】

Mao Lilan's cheeks flushed slightly, and she quickly denied: "No! I... I was looking at Shinichi's seat because..." She hesitated when the words came to her lips, as if she couldn't even give a definite reason.

Seeing this, Suzuki Sonoko became even more curious. She approached Mao Lilan and asked curiously, "Why? Tell me quickly!"

Mao Lilan was a little embarrassed by the question. She hesitated for a long time but couldn't say anything. The blush on her cheeks became more and more obvious. Suzuki Sonoko couldn't help laughing when she saw this: "Oh, your face is red. Red is not auspicious during exams. It seems that you are really thinking about Shinichi!"

Mao Lilan was so embarrassed that she quickly stood up and changed the subject: "By the way, speaking of red, I can hear sirens since this morning. Did something happen?"

Suzuki Sonoko stopped smiling after hearing this and thought about it carefully: "Come to think of it, it is true. The sirens seem to be more frequent than usual."

In Takagi Wataru's police car, Conan sat in the back seat, his brows furrowed, his eyes flashing with thought, and he kept muttering: "Red, red, red..."

Huiyuan Ai sat beside him, looking at him sideways, her clear eyes full of confusion. "What's wrong with Red?" she asked softly.

Conan raised his head and looked at Huihara Ai, with a gleam of inspiration in his eyes. "For some reason, I am particularly concerned about the phrase 'climbing the bloody pitcher's mound'," he said slowly, "I always feel that there is something wrong with it."

When Huihara Ai heard this, she frowned slightly, as if trying to understand Conan's thoughts. "Do you think this doesn't refer to the red tram?" she asked tentatively.

[Kojima Genta, even though these two guys are usually very smart, they still have to rely on our ideas at critical moments.

Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya, well, we lack sufficient logical reasoning ability, but there is no reasoning without a starting point, right! 】

Conan shook his head with a complicated expression. "How should I put it? It doesn't feel right. Although the red tram is an obvious clue, I always feel that there is a deeper meaning behind this sentence." He paused, as if he was quickly sorting out his thoughts in his mind, "Wait a minute, if it's the same as the case three years ago, in order to lure the police out, the first bomb will most likely be placed in a place that is both conspicuous and easy to find."

At this point, Conan's eyes suddenly became firm, as if he had grasped some key clue. "Think more simply, more simply..." He muttered to himself, tapping his knees unconsciously, as if he was simulating some scene.

[Megure Jusan, indeed, do you know how many red trams there were? We police officers were very busy at the time.

Matsumoto Kiyonaga, you can't think like that. Didn't the cunning bomber place many fake bombs? 】

Inside the car, the children's discussions continued.

Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya spoke first. He thought seriously: "What can you associate with red? Well, there are mailboxes and fire trucks, which are common red objects."

Yoshida Ayumi then said, "There are also red ghosts and Little Red Riding Hood! They often appear in storybooks."

Kojima Genta looked like a foodie. He listed excitedly, "Tomatoes, strawberries, watermelons, apples, cherries. These fruits are all red. There are also spicy soup, salmon roe, tuna belly... Oh, I'm getting hungry just talking about it."

Conan listened quietly, his eyes jumping between the key words "red", "board", and "iron box", as if he was constructing a picture.

Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya noticed that Genta had gone off topic and said with a smile, "Genta, you're talking about food."

Yuan Tai touched his head sheepishly and said with a simple smile: "When I use my brain, I feel hungry."

Yoshida Ayumi also echoed: "Me too, I'm so thirsty now."

Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya suggested, "Why don't we find a parking lot and stop the car and take a break? Oh! By the way, speaking of red, isn't there a red building over there?"

Hearing this, Conan suddenly raised his head and looked in the direction of Mitsuhiko's finger, only to see a striking red building standing not far away.

"Ah! I see..." Conan muttered to himself, and suddenly it became clear in his mind, "Red, board, iron box... So that's what you mean!"

The Toudou Tower outside the window stood tall, but was shrouded in an ominous layer of smoke. Seeing this, Takagi Shigeru immediately stepped on the accelerator and drove straight to the Toudou Tower. As the police car approached, they found that a large number of people had gathered around, talking a lot, and the scene was in chaos.

"Has something happened?" Takagi Wataru's heart tightened. He slowed down and stopped the car, then turned back and said to the children in the car.

Kojima Genta asked nervously, "What, what happened? Did a bomb explode?"

Yoshida Ayumi also looked out the window worriedly: "There's smoke, so scary."

Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya tried to stay calm and analyzed: "It seems that the bomb is indeed set here. We have to be careful."

Takagi Shigeru nodded seriously and said to the children, "You guys wait in the car and don't run around, okay? I'll go and ask what happened." After that, he opened the car door, got out quickly and walked towards the center of the crowd.
