Conan Moslin

Driving a taxi while wearing explosion-proof clothing is obviously a very novel experience, not to mention that there is a younger life in the car carrying dangerous goods.

A young white cat.

The white cat was washed very clean, but it was very thin. It rubbed the gloved hand of a colleague in the back seat affectionately and made a purring sound in its throat unconsciously.

Kenji Hagiwara drove along the cleared fork in a certain direction, suggesting: "After we stop the car, should we leave the cat in the car?"

There was really no other choice but to bring it into the car without being discovered.

But they also can't let it run around, or else something might go wrong.

Matsuda Jinpei, who had been staring at the bright red countdown timer in the pet box, responded. He glanced at the taxi's speedometer and said, "You're driving very fast. We still have six minutes."

There is a large flow of people near the Beihua Station. If a bomb explodes in this place, innocent people will be harmed and the surrounding traffic will be paralyzed immediately.

The road to Tsutsu River Park was slightly congested due to the first explosion, and there were actually quite a few people in the park.

At this time, the only open space left was the open space after the children's park and the highway in front of the nearby apartments, which was the best bomb disposal location nearby.

Bombs placed in pet bags like this would not be equipped with motion-triggered mercury devices, because if someone took the pet box away when the criminal placed the bomb and left, he himself would also be injured by the explosion.

He had a very clear target and was not a criminal who would explode just for the sake of explosion. Therefore, the police speculated that if he had not come into contact with the predetermined target, he would not deliberately detonate the bomb in his hand except by ending the explosion through the countdown.

That's why they don't want the target to get close to the bomb again.

After quickly confirming the situation, Jinpei Matsuda and Kenji Hagiwara quickly got into a taxi.

The same team members were in several cars around the taxi, clearing the way for the two and also serving as a protective link. If the bomb suddenly exploded at this time, their car and the surroundings would definitely be the first to be affected.

"The team is on standby. Although time is tight, the people around this road have been evacuated. We also need to reserve some time." Kenji said seriously, "For safety reasons."

However, he gave it away in his next sentence: "And the protective suit is still very hot..."

Matsuda Jinpei expressed his helplessness at the words he had been saying for years: "But you don't dare to take it off, right?"

"That can't be helped... The fear of being deceived by the bomb seven years ago still lingers in my heart..."

"You still dare to talk about that incident seven years ago? If it wasn't for an old lady who refused to leave the apartment during the evacuation, you would have almost made a big mistake just one month after taking the job!" Thinking of this incident, Matsuda Jinpei was very scared, "When you said that you were cutting the wires and saw the digital dial suddenly moved... I just -"

Cardiac arrest!

"Kenji! The countdown just stopped!"

Kenji Hagiwara was still driving. Upon hearing this, he glanced behind him in the rearview mirror and found that they had just passed the children's park and arrived at the nearby apartment area, so he increased the speed again.

"The bomb is in fact controlled by someone! Tell the bomb disposal team on standby to be prepared for a sudden explosion!"

Just over ten seconds later, after the two got on the highway, the stagnant countdown started moving again.

It was very surprising that the bomb did not explode during this short but long period of pause. They arrived at the designated bomb disposal location in one breath, and while being on high alert, they cooperated to dismantle the bomb very quickly.

Today's second crisis was averted.

The white cat squatted obediently in the back seat of the taxi, quietly looking at the many people outside the window in the distance.

"Miwu——"

……

The existence of the two plastic bombs made the police pay great attention to this matter, so after receiving the notification that the second bomb was successfully dismantled, Officer Megure only breathed a sigh of relief temporarily.

The amount of explosives lost from the gunpowder magazine was far from enough, and the criminals still had a backup plan.

Since Kudo Shinichi still cannot be contacted, Kuroba Kuriyasu, who is now acting as the person who directly communicates with the criminal on behalf of "Kudo Shinichi", will become a very important breakthrough target for the police during the next breathing period.

At this time, after several people related to the case quickly finished their lunch, Inspector Megure made a solemn request to Kuroba Kuriyasu, who was in the center of the storm, with a very serious expression.

"Ms. Kuroba Kuriyasu, we must understand the situation from you."

Sitting on one of the sofas temporarily borrowed by the police in the apartment, Li An nodded.

"The criminal's primary target should be Kudo Shinichi. How could he suddenly contact you?" Officer Megure asked, "Has Kudo Shinichi contacted you?"

Kuroba Kuriyasu, who was holding Kudo Shinichi's genuine mobile phone at the time, said: "He didn't contact me directly. The initial situation was relayed to me by Dr. Agasa using Ai's phone number. Because of the urgent time, I didn't have time to tell him."

Since the original call was made by the other party to Dr. Agasa's home, the actual phone line was Kudo's house, Kurian could only deliberately blur the time and explain to the police officer: "Dr. Agasa said that Kudo Shinichi had other things to do, so I had to give him my mobile phone number."

Dr. Agasa, who had just come over with a few children, nodded: "That's right."

As he listened to Kurian "telling in detail" what happened at that time, Kogoro Mori became extremely angry.

"How can there be such a person! I will not let him off next time we meet!"

So, how can I tell you that I am Kudo Shinichi...

His words made Conan, who was standing by, very helpless.

As the "magic assistant" who had just assisted Kuria in completing the first bomb explosion, Conan Edogawa naturally stayed here as well.

He listened carefully to the conversation between Li An and the police officer, hoping to get more clues from the police.

However, after receiving the answer from Dr. Agasa, Inspector Megure naturally asked the next question that made Conan a little embarrassed: "So, the cousin the other party mentioned... is true?"

Kuriyasu & Conan: ...

Is this the focus of today?!

Kuroba Kuriyasu skipped this thorny topic and asked about the bombs instead: "Officer Megure, are these two explosives indeed the ones that were stolen from the Toyo gunpowder depot?"

Feiyingli was thinking about something.

No wonder she felt that the two children from the Hei Yu family looked familiar.

But if that's the case, then her father...

In response to Kuriyasu's question, the newly transferred police officer behind Inspector Megure, Shiratori Jinzaburo, flipped through the records and answered the few people.

"Both bombs were plastic explosives."

"The bomb in the remote-controlled plane is an impact bomb with a fuse, and the bomb in the pet basket is a time bomb with a timer."
