Conan Moslin

Endless silence quickly spread at the door of the study.

The architect who had planned everything showed a gratified smile on his face. His eyes passed over Kuroba Kuriyasu in front of him and went straight to Inspector Megure who was answering the phone with a serious expression, looking forward to the explosive news he would bring.

What a wonderful thing...

The destruction of his most failed work...of course cannot be left to others!

When General Moritani Teiji uttered the harsh words, Conan's first reaction was panic.

He almost immediately recalled how Kuroba Kurian felt when she heard that her brother was also on the train that was about to explode just after four o'clock in the afternoon.

Despite being so worried and scared, one still has to calmly and carefully integrate all the information and find a way out from the complicated and chaotic thoughts to keep everyone alive, including the important people.

Everyone's life and death hangs on a thread.

But how is that possible... there are only two minutes...

With such fear, Conan quickly called Mouri Ran.

"Hey?"

"Sister Xiaolan, where are you and Sister Sonoko now!"

"Is that Conan? We are outside the Beika Municipal Building now..."

Not in the municipal building?

After receiving this news, Conan's mind became a little clearer.

Although there was some noise around, Xiaolan's voice sounded relatively safe: "I don't know why this place was suddenly blocked. Sonoko and I followed a police officer out more than ten minutes ago."

She seemed to have heard something, and was holding her phone nervously: "But I heard many people around me say that there seems to be a bomb planted in the building..."

Conan finally breathed a sigh of relief. He was about to say that nothing was wrong when Mouri Kogoro snatched the phone from Conan and started talking to Kisaki Eri about his concern. They decided where to meet.

The couple wanted to see with their own eyes that their daughter was safe before they would feel at ease.

During the brief exchange, Kogoro Mouri also learned about the situation at that time from Xiaolan's words.

……

"Who called just now?" Yuanzi asked curiously.

"It was Jun Aso from our school. She sometimes stayed at Sister Li An's house." Mao Lilan answered, "She was asking if Sister Li An was staying with us. Do you remember? It was..."

This was the person that Sonoko mistook for someone else in the first performance after Li An returned.

Yuanzi: "Of course I remember her... Is there no news about Sister Li An?"

"She went to investigate a commission with my father today...she should be back by now." Mao Lilan was a little worried. "Ms. Aso Jun said that her phone was unreachable. I asked Sister Yuko and the people in her group, but they didn't know. I hope nothing happened to her..."

At this moment, in this relatively remote corner, another voice interrupted.

"Young ladies, why don't you look around before you worry about other people?" The voice was very steady, as if it could give people enough sense of security. "Why did you run to such a remote place to make a phone call?"

Officer Sato actually didn't notice the two of them just now. If he hadn't brought people to the nearby area to look for the people they missed...

When Mao Lilan and the other person came to their senses, they saw a tall man holding a toothpick in his mouth standing in front of them.

He looked up at the radio in the corner, complaining in his heart that the facilities in the municipal building needed to be repaired, while skillfully showing a police officer's ID.

At this moment, the mature and serious police officer was speaking to the two young men in a gentle tone: "I am Ida Kou from the Investigation Division 1. I am temporarily transferred here to maintain order."

"The Mihua Municipal Building is temporarily closed due to special reasons. Please follow me."

……

From Teiji Moriya's residence, he could see the situation of the Beika Municipal Building from afar, but until the time on the watch passed nine o'clock, there was still no vibration caused by the explosion.

Moriya Teiji watched helplessly as the expressions of several people who hung up the phone one after another gradually calmed down from panic.

The smile gradually froze.

Once again...what went wrong this time? !

As if guessing what Moritani Teiji was thinking, Kuroba Kuriya's voice soon rang out.

"Unfortunately, Mr. Moriya, there are some things I think you didn't hear clearly."

The tone was flat and full of sarcasm.

"Although the police do not know where your bomb is buried, all buildings related to Mr. Moriya Teiji, including the Beika Municipal Building, have police officers going to check."

Emperor Moriya's eyes were red with anger.

Li An has already said that the outside world will try its best to protect all of Moriya Teiji's hard work.

This is certainly not a lie.

Continuous phone threats, blatant bomb warnings——

Of course, it is impossible for the police to focus only on the trains on the Toudou Loop Line.

Not long after Inspector Megure, Kuriyasu and others narrowed down the criminal's bomb target to the building of "Moriya Teiji", he immediately reported the information he had obtained.

Under the arrangement of Superintendent Hakuba, who had sorted out the situation, the police officers quickly set out to deploy personnel to all the buildings that were designed and built by Teiji Moriya according to the information.

Even if they cannot identify the criminal, they can still take appropriate measures if they can identify the criminal's target.

——The Mihua City Hall, which is the focal point of the city, is of course included in this list.

In addition, to ensure safety, police officers are on patrol in hospitals, shopping malls, cinemas, stations and other places where there are most people. They check most hidden places, just to prevent indiscriminate accidents from happening anywhere.

"No...impossible..."

After hanging up the phone, Officer Megure said to the people who were watching the situation, "The bombs at the entrance and emergency entrance of the Beika Municipal Building have been safely removed. Another bomb in a shopping paper bag has also been found. The amount is basically consistent with the amount of explosives stolen."

"The countdown for this bomb is 12:03, which is plenty of time, but the estimated explosion power is very large. The officers of the bomb disposal team believe that we cannot dismantle it hastily, and we need to wait until all personnel around the municipal building are evacuated before we can start." Officer Megure raised the bomb design in his hand, "We need to send this bomb design over now, maybe it will help them in bomb disposal."

Officer Shiratori asked, "Do you want to take Moriya Teiji with you as well? We don't have enough manpower."

Sato, Takagi, Chiba from the Investigation Division, and Officer Ida who had just recovered from an illness were all transferred over to maintain order. Officer Shiratori and several officers he brought with him needed to stay near the Moriya Teiji residence and wait for the bomb disposal team to come and check - after all, there was a bomb here too.

In addition to their group, members of many other groups are also investigating everywhere...they really don't have enough manpower.

Maori Kogoro, who was talking to Xiaolan, threw the phone back to Conan: "If Officer Megure doesn't mind, Eri and I can deliver this design."

Officer Megure hesitated for a moment, and said, "If you don't drive the police car, you will be stuck in traffic."

"I'll go with you."
