Conan Moslin

Shortly after confirming that no bomb was found on the train, a total of 21 trains in motion all turned to nearby tracks through the railway switches in accordance with the instructions of the Dongdu Railway Command.

Of course, the train that Kuroba Kaito was riding on was among them.

After getting off the train, several high school students reported their safety to their parents or elder sisters.

Because her mother, Aiko, was usually very busy and was resting at home at this time, Nakamori Aoko only called Officer Nakamori.

Ginzo Nakamori, who was deploying the troops to capture Kaito Kid at the Sorajuku Exhibition Hall, was obviously very worried about what was happening around his daughter. However, he could not leave his post now, so he could only earnestly remind her and Kaito over and over again to go home quickly, saying that these matters would be handled by other groups of police officers.

"Li An must be well protected...don't worry..."

Although he was comforting his daughter in this way, Ginzo Nakamori still looked worried after hanging up the phone.

How could Li An... get involved in something like this...

Is it related to the accident that happened eight years ago?

Bai Ba Tan called his father and asked about the current situation very naturally after explaining the accurate time.

Superintendent Baima obviously understood his son's desire to get involved, so he picked up some harmless information and passed it on.

"The gunpowder storage thief in the news?" Bai Ma Tan lowered his eyes after listening to the news from his father. "This is the third case today..."

"Will there be another one? We still don't have enough information..."

Due to the time difference, Kuroba Kaito still called his sister as usual, who was still in the vortex, to tell her not to worry about her safety.

Although Kaito Kidd planned to start the operation tonight, he began to consider whether to send a notice to the exhibition hall to temporarily cancel or postpone the theft for one or two hours.

——This will certainly increase the already high suspicion of the white horse detective around him, but the safety of his sister is obviously more important.

"Kaito, go do your own thing. Don't worry about me." In response to Kaito's cryptic call, Kuroba Kuriyasu said, "As long as you and Aoko are safe."

"I'm still busy, we'll contact each other later."

Kuroba Kaito was silent for a long time, and finally responded with an "OK".

Before the sun set, the five bombs were checked one by one and safely dismantled by the explosion-proof team.

Even after the news that the bomb on the Sumida Canal Bridge was finally resolved, Inspector Megure and others still couldn't relax.

"The number of bombs installed is only one-fifth of the amount of explosives stolen a few days ago."

"That is to say... the remaining four-fifths are still in the hands of the criminals."

……

Back to this temporary apartment again.

Officer Shiratori, who had gone to investigate Kohei Okamoto, the son of former Nishitama City Mayor Okamoto, and other people involved in the incident, has hurried back and began to report the situation to Officer Megure.

"First, about Mayor Okamoto's son, Kohei... He went to Izu early this morning."

"So it has nothing to do with him."

"Yes."

I don't know when the TV in the apartment was turned on, and it was still playing the emergency news from the Dongdu Loop Line.

"Toudou Loop Line Bomb Warning—"

Now that the bomb disposal work has been completely completed, the media can finally release this explosive news.

"At 4 pm today, the entire Touto Loop Line did not stop at any station for more than 30 minutes... According to the information released by the Touto Railway and the Metropolitan Police Department... five bombs were found along the Touto Loop Line tracks."

"The bombs were buried in ..."

A photo of the Sumida Canal Bridge appeared on TV, and Conan, who had been following the TV news, soon felt somewhat familiar.

Wait, he remembered that there was this photo in Professor Moritani's exhibition room...

Also, the Mizushima family that burned down in the news today, and the Kuroda family that burned down some time ago... He seemed to have seen them in the exhibition room at that time.

Combined with what Sister Li An just said...

Li An stayed in this apartment for almost the entire afternoon, listening carefully to what was happening in all directions.

She still showed her ability to analyze details. She mentioned to Eri Ki and several other police officers that in the last contact with the criminal, the opponent had shifted from "Kudo Shinichi" to "Detective Mori". Therefore, she believed that the target this time was completely different from the previous two times. It was very likely that the ultimate purpose of his third bomb was not to challenge "Kudo Shinichi", but he was still using the challenge letter to cover up his purpose this time.

Kuriya did not solve any puzzles on the day of the tea party, nor did he enter Teiji Moriya's exhibition room, and he was not familiar with his works.

She didn't even know that the name "Kudo Shinichi" was written on the invitation letter that Teiji Moriya sent to Conan.

You can check, but it’s not necessary.

——It’s just a tea party with Yuko, why should I make trouble for myself?

Li An originally thought so.

The other party's purpose this time...

"Oh, isn't this bridge designed by Professor Moritani?"

Conan's voice echoed in the room.

The others didn't make any movement, but Officer Shiratori reacted immediately.

"That's right." He obviously knew something about this bridge. "It was indeed designed by Teiji Moriya."

"This bridge was designed and built by Teiji Moriya when he was in his thirties and started his own business. Because it was not an iron bridge but was built with British-style stones, it attracted a lot of attention at the time. Teiji Moriya also won the Best Newcomer Award from the Japan Architectural Association for designing this bridge."

Inspector Megure sighed: "You know so much..."

"Because I have always been interested in architecture." Officer Hakuba smiled, causing Kogoro Mouri to look at him unconsciously.

It was great that someone answered the question, and Conan continued, "And more! In Mr. Moritani's exhibition room, I also saw the Kurokawa residence that burned down some time ago, and the photos of the Mizushima residence mentioned in the news today!"

Conan's vague suggestions made several people suddenly see the light.

Officer Shiratori sighed softly as he looked at the seemingly innocent child in front of him.

"Interesting thing……"

……

The time is now eight o'clock in the evening, an hour after the sun sets.

While Kuriya and his group were heading towards the residence of Teiji Moriya, Ran Mouri, who was completely oblivious to the situation, finished her dinner with Sonoko Suzuki without realizing it.

"Lan, I'm telling you. You said you were going to celebrate Kudo Shinichi's birthday, but why did you ask me to come out to watch a movie as well?" Suzuki Sonoko had been holding back on something for the whole day, and she couldn't help but say it. "When I think about the fact that we were surrounded by a bunch of affectionate young couples as soon as we entered the cinema..."

Mao Lilan tried to cover up the truth: "It's not what you said, it's just to go to the movies..."

"Also, why did you buy two pieces of clothing? One big and one small..."

Mao Lilan glanced at the two paper bags on the seats at the dining table and spoke softly.

"Because, tomorrow is Conan's birthday too..."

"Eh? Is it such a coincidence?"

"yes……"

For some reason, Yuanzi seemed to hear a faint sigh.

"How could it be such a coincidence?"
