Conan Moslin

Chapter 270: Legend of the Red Line (17) Convergence

I don't know how the discussion went, but the final result is that Kogoro Mouri and Eri Kisaki got into Inspector Megure's police car, and Kuria followed behind in Eri Kisaki's blue sedan.

The first step after starting the car was for Li An to take a look at the fuel gauge. Sure enough, the number on the dial had dropped by more than half.

I have to say, this car was driven by several people in turn for a whole day, and it was a blessing that the gas in the car didn't run out.

Haibara Ai and Conan got into the back seat obediently, and now they finally had a chance to talk to Kurian alone.

"What happened today?" Li An started the car.

Although Kurian was very involved today and helped Conan to cover up his lie very tacitly, he felt not very good when he was inexplicably borrowed from his identity and given a name, and was directly involved in the incident belonging to "Kudo Shinichi".

When she and Kaito borrowed their identities, they wouldn't bring any danger to them - at most they would bring a few self-reviews.

Some of these reviews belong to the people being played, and a few come from the two siblings.

Because of a series of big and small things, such as taking Kaito to the bar, Li An did write a "self-criticism".

Before the ink is dry, here's another one -

I became so familiar with it that I didn't have to move a single stroke.

Qianying, who heard about this measure from somewhere, soon discovered that her two rebellious children were still letting themselves go and that writing self-criticisms was completely useless, so she quickly changed her method and continued to compete with the siblings in a battle of wits and courage.

Later on, I couldn't tell whether Kuriyasu and Kaito were playing with their mother, or whether their mother was playing to accommodate the two children in the family.

——Back to the present.

While Conan was still organizing his words, Haibara Ai next to him had already told him what had been seen on TV at noon.

"The burning of Mika Pharmaceutical Company and the series of arson cases have been reopened for investigation."

"That was my...previous research site."

It turned out to be the case.

Kuroba Kurian nodded slightly, his eyes still fixed on the road in front of him, without even a single deviation in his gaze.

She asked, "You think that organization was involved in the theft of the gunpowder magazine and the series of arson in the afternoon, so you decided not to let 'Kudo Shinichi' show up?"

Completely exposed in front of the two bottles of fake wine, Conan Edogawa argued confidently.

"The gunpowder depot is well guarded. It would be impossible for Moriya Teiji to complete the theft alone."

Heavily guarded - refers to the fact that a large amount of materials were stolen before they were discovered, and a large number of police forces were dispatched to look for them, but it turned out that the bombs had already been prepared and buried.

"Also... the investigation into the Mika Pharmaceutical Company had originally been concluded, but when the series of arson cases occurred, it was brought up for investigation together. The methods used were all ignition devices that short-circuited the circuits."

The method was the same - the burning of Mika Pharmaceutical Company was indeed caused by ignition of an electrical circuit, but Li An was sure that no ignition device was left behind at the time.

It could only be released later.

She received no information - the investigation into Kasi was not yet concluded.

Ah.

"And... the houses that were burned down one after another were Kurokawa's house, Mika Pharmaceutical Company, Akutsu's house, and Mizushima's house. Mika Pharmaceutical Company burned down after Kurokawa's house..."

"I have a guess..."

……

The subsequent convergence was natural.

At 11 o'clock in the evening, all people around the Mihua Municipal Building were evacuated.

After the members of the explosion-proof team received the design drawings from Inspector Megure, they quickly discovered some discrepancies with the drawings.

Most of the structure on this blueprint matched the bomb they had, but two of the lines were completely different colors - the black areas on the blueprint were actually a red line and a blue line.

The police officers were not misled by the red and blue lines on the drawing. After the crowd was evacuated, they quickly dismantled the bomb with the cooperation of the team and their rich experience.

The series of incidents caused by Teiji Moriya were resolved successfully on the same day without taking any time overnight.

After dismantling the largest bomb, Jinpei Matsuda and Kenji Hagiwara only met Date Kou who had finally returned to his post, and then rushed to the residence of Teiji Moriya without stopping.

——There is one last part of the bomb that needs to be defused.

As it approached twelve o'clock, Kogoro Mouri had already set out on the road back to the office with Conan and others.

Since Kogoro Mouri was relatively reliable in all matters big and small today, he and Eri Kisaki rarely had a quarrel. In addition to the bomb, their focus was also on their daughter.

But even so, neither of the couple mentioned moving back together, and they each returned to their own place of residence.

Before leaving, Li An made an appointment with Hime Eri to go and look at the information next time, and confirmed the time for the statement at the request of the police officer. Then he took Ai back to Trojan Manor.

After a whole day of excitement, the exit was calm and relaxed.

Kogoro Mouri and Conan were in a state of tension the whole afternoon. Ran Mouri also understood something and did not disturb the two of them from washing and resting.

After washing up, Conan returned to his and Kogoro's room first.

"This is……"

Next to his schoolbag, there was a brand new pink paper bag.

Conan had seen this paper bag when they came back, and he was wondering why Xiaolan brought back two bags.

Unfolding the paper bag, I found a thin red knitted sweater inside.

It's a children's style, and it's just the right size for him now.

Bought it specially for him.

Conan was still in a daze when Kogoro Mouri, who had just finished washing up, pushed the door open and saw the red clothes in his hand at a glance.

"Did Xiaolan buy this today?" Looking at the size of the clothes, Kogoro seemed a little jealous, "I thought this was for me..."

Conan said nothing, but silently folded the clothes and put them into the paper bag.

"Forget it...if...she can come back...let her choose."

Kogoro Mouri didn't think too much about this. He yawned, quickly rolled up the quilt and lay down on the bed.

Before going to bed, he turned around and said, "Hurry up and get some rest. I'll take you to the police station to take a statement tomorrow..."

Conan responded and quickly tidied his bed. After turning off the lights, he quietly buried his head in the quilt amid Uncle Kogoro's deafening snoring.

[…Conan, do you like red or blue?]

[Shinichi likes red as much as I do!]

Kudo Shinichi has never been asked what his favorite color is.

[…Because Shinichi’s birthday is May 5th!]

Conan Edogawa never told Ran Mouri his birthday.

The chaotic thoughts gradually became clear, and more details flooded into my mind——

[Shin… What’s going on between Shinichi and you? You caught a cold too!]

[Of course I know he can't come, but so what?]

[Please help me to tell him that he must not come!]

All the clues, everything has a traceable path.

Kudo Shinichi thought that he might not be able to numb himself anymore.

……

On the other side, not long after Mao Lilan met her parents, Sonoko was quickly picked up home by her family's driver.

Of course, Suzuki's parents were furious about their daughter almost being involved in the bomb attack.

No matter what connections they are going to use to do something, I think Moriya Teiji's days in prison will probably not be easy.

--If he survives to go to prison.
