Conan Moslin

Chapter 268: Legend of the Red Line (15) Municipal Affairs

Since the threat in his hand was no longer a threat, Teiji Moriya was subdued by Officer Shiratori almost in silence.

Inspector Megure turned to look at Li An: "Now that we have the evidence... then what about the motive..."

"The motive should be in his exhibition room... I think the police officer will find it out soon?"

Seeing that Teiji Moriya had been handcuffed, Kurian was finally able to approach him without being stopped by the police officer.

Although his motives were not yet clear but the evidence was irrefutable, Moriya Teiji stared at Kuriya in silence.

At that moment, he saw a flash of emotion that absolutely should not appear in a young magician.

"Compared to this...Mr. Moritani, you seem to be very concerned about the contents of your chest pocket..."

Wait, what did she just say!

Moriya Teiji's eyes widened and he struggled backwards unconsciously, raising his handcuffed hands to protect his pockets.

However, Kuroba Kurian had taken away the things on him the moment his attention was diverted, and now he had calmly retreated a few steps.

She unfolded the paper in her hand, her eyes lingered for a moment between the two black lines among the colorful lines on the paper, and then handed it to Inspector Megure.

"This is probably the design of the bomb."

Officer Megure looked down and quickly realized: "This bomb seems to be different from the previous design..."

Kogoro Mori also came over, and soon he looked at Teiji Moritani with sharp eyes.

"That is to say... he does have other goals."

Conan stretched his neck and stood on tiptoe, but the height difference was too great and he could not see the blueprint in the police officer's hand at all.

He wants to see it too!

His plans were disrupted once again, and Moriya Teiji was already somewhat exasperated. He stared at Kuroba Kuriya's face fiercely, and all the politeness he had shown when they first met at the tea party had long disappeared.

"It's you again...worker..."

"Kudo Shinichi's cousin?" Li An chuckled unconsciously, "You are still struggling with this title?"

"Let me think about it. Mr. Moritani must have many excellent works left in the world."

Li An's tone and manner remained gentle, but every word she said challenged Moriya Teiji's extremely sensitive nerves at the moment.

She casually mentioned the names of several of his early buildings, and then said, "Even if Mr. Moriya is in prison, all your hard work... the outside world will still work hard to protect--"

After all, an architect's imprisonment does not mean that he

How can he protect them? They are all his failures!

Failure has always been unbearable for Teiji Moriya. The imperfect buildings that have sprung up for various reasons seem to appear before his eyes again.

They piled up in his eyes and screamed wildly in his mind—

"What a wonderful building!" "Master! You are amazing!" "Professor——"

No! This is clearly his shame!

Those who regard his failed works as a benchmark are completely irresponsible!

However, in his architectural career——

His failed products were constantly praised by everyone, but his ideal town plan completely collapsed.

Works that have not appeared in front of the world will not appear in Teiji Moritani's resume.

Plans were unexpected and failed one after another.

Countless dark shadows completely overwhelmed him.

In a daze, he had no idea what Li An said. He only vaguely heard these two sentences.

"Are you sure you want me to say it?"

Kuroba Kurian's voice seemed to come from the sky.

"If you want to turn the tables, this is your last chance."

As long as you say it before me - then you win.

Moriya Teiji, whose thoughts were already a little confused, seemed to suddenly react at this moment.

The person in front of him was using a special method to break down his psychological defenses and was asking him about the final location of the bomb.

——She didn't know where he placed the bomb!

"Haha...hahaha!"

"So you're just like that! So you can't guess it either!"

Amid the horrified gazes of the crowd, Moriya Teiji lowered his head to look at the time and suddenly burst into laughter.

"Last chance...you're right!"

"It's not over yet... Of course I can tell you!"

"There is indeed another building I want to destroy..."

"They said that the bubble economy collapsed, so there was not enough money for construction... Just because of these boring reasons, it became the most unsuccessful work of my life! You people don't understand my aesthetics at all!"

His laughter suddenly stopped at a certain moment, and when he spoke again, his voice was filled with the joy of victory.

"There are less than two minutes until nine o'clock..."

"Let Kudo Shinichi and his girlfriend who refuse to show up—"

"With him and his damn sense of justice—"

"See you in hell!!!"

……

Rice Flower Municipal Building.

Sonoko took the movie ticket from Xiaolan and was a little dumbfounded.

"The Seventh Funeral? Wait? Xiaolan, what kind of movie is this?" Sonoko was a little confused. "Aren't we going to watch The Legend of the Red Thread?"

Mao Lilan held the other two tickets, and her expression was also a little strange: "I find it strange too... The tickets I ordered are obviously correct, but the staff just told me that this is the movie in their computer records, and there are no tickets for the midnight show of "Red Line" anymore."

"Maybe there's something wrong with their program?" Yuanzi didn't think too much about it. "The name of this movie sounds like a suspense and mystery type... Look, there's a poster in the lobby..."

Mao Lilan glanced at the posters posted in the hall and saw a few familiar faces in the corners of the posters.

Seeing that Xiaolan seemed to be in a daze, Yuanzi felt that she was not interested in this type of movie and immediately asked: "Xiaolan, will you not like it? Let's go back to the counter to see if there are any unsold movie tickets? And since it's a problem over there, of course we have to go directly to that person to solve it!"

"No, thanks. Sonoko, do you want to watch anything else? If not, let's just watch this one." Mouri Ran quickly came to her senses and refused. After asking for her opinion, the two of them walked towards the cinema, planning to buy some popcorn and drinks, which were essential for the movie.

Sonoko: "What time did Shinichi agree to come over? Should we wait in the lobby?"

"Shinichi... he may not be able to come today." Xiaolan explained softly, "Although I asked him about the time before, it is not convenient for him to come, so I told him not to come."

"Why is this so... I was looking forward to watching you two Ki at the cinema..." Sonoko swallowed the words on the tip of her tongue with some regret, and changed the subject under Xiaolan's somewhat embarrassed and annoyed gaze, "Xiaolan, in this case, when are you going to give him the gift we picked out after shopping for an afternoon?"

"…Maybe I can leave it at his house the next time I go to clean his place?"

"That's really strange. Is that guy doing something dangerous? How come you don't even know where he is?"

"Ah...wait a minute, there's a phone call."

"Hey?"
