The Phantom Thief of Heart! But Conan

"What, what happened?!"

"What happened!"

"Stop the parade immediately and evacuate all spectators at the scene!"

Takagi Wataru's car was more than ten meters away from the parade crowd, but the power of the explosion was enough to lift the car up, which was naturally enough to alarm the parade crowd and the convoy.

Conan and others, who had been walking forward along the periphery of the crowd, were attracted by the movement here and quickly approached the intersection.

"What was that sound just now?"

"It's a bomb!" Conan asserted with certainty, "The fax mentioned by Officer Sato and others should be related to the explosion three years ago. It seems that a car was blown up."

"Isn't that Officer Takagi's car?" Through the obstruction of thick smoke, Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya judged the approximate direction and recalled the time when he saw Takagi Wataru appear before, "Is Officer Takagi okay?!"

"It's hard to say, I just saw someone approaching the car through the crowded crowd..." Conan's brows were tightly knitted.

Under his leadership, several people took advantage of the time when the police had not yet come to pull the cordon and ran over the guardrail towards the explosion site.

Only Huihara Ai lagged behind by two steps. As she ran, she stretched out her hand to pull the trouser leg of Tang Ze, who seemed to be in a hurry but was actually walking leisurely.

"I just seemed to see someone go there earlier than Officer Takagi. Is it okay?" she asked in a low voice.

Tang Ze, who was moving forward in small steps, did not answer, but just smiled at her.

Of course it's okay, isn't it just seeing a guy who looks like Matsuda Jinpei? Before the bombing case is completely over, this "hallucination" will soon become a collective one.

As long as everyone sees a ghost, it is almost the same as no one seeing a ghost!

"Where is Officer Takagi, is he okay?!" Seeing Shiratori Renzaburo standing next to the police car, Conan quickly asked.

"He just walked into the car and was about to drive it away when it suddenly exploded." Shiratori Jinzaburo stared at the burning car and answered calmly, "Normally, in this situation, he would die."

"Ah? Could he..."

"So, it's usually." Shiratori Jinzaburo squinted his eyes and looked at Takagi Wataru who stood up with the iron mailbox, "You are so lucky, you guy."

"Hey, hey, I finally escaped, don't say it as if it's a pity!" Takagi Wataru wiped the black ash on his face caused by the smoke and dust, "People will misunderstand the working atmosphere of the police station."

"Being misunderstood that everyone has a bad relationship is better than being misunderstood that the police have a problem with their brains." Shiratori Jinzaburo rolled his eyelids, his face full of speechlessness, "You might as well just say you are lucky. What do you mean a man who looks like Matsuda Jinpei pulled you back, fortunately Sato hasn't come yet, otherwise she would have to give you a blow?"

On this day, Matsuda Jinpei's name has a completely different lethality.

Let alone Sato Miwako, after hearing what Takagi Wataru said, Shiratori wanted to punch this guy.

This police officer who had only worked in the Investigation Division for 7 days, it was not only Sato Miwako who felt sorry for him, but Sato, who had been his partner for 7 days, was particularly shocked.

"I, I didn't lie..." Takagi Wataru patted the mailbox next to him, with the same helpless expression.

He was really pulled back by a man with black curly hair and sunglasses!

He had never seen Matsuda Jinpei, so where could he make up such a lie to make fun of others...

While the two were talking, a black figure quickly approached from the other side of the street. When they noticed it, the person had already rushed to the side of the overturned vehicle and stretched out his hand to try to open the door that was constantly smoking.

"Oh no, she hasn't noticed that you have dodged..." Shiratori Renzaburo didn't care about his colleagues who didn't escape, and hurried over to stop him.

The vehicle had already overturned and was accompanied by open flames. A secondary explosion could occur at any time. It was very dangerous to get so close.

Miwako Sato, who was trying to pry open the car door with all her strength, had a buzzing sound in her head at the moment. The shouts of reality and the voices of a distant moment intertwined, and she could not bring back her consciousness at all.

"Forget it, Sato! Don't go over there!"

"It's too late!"

"It's too dangerous, hurry up and evacuate!"

But, but...

"But he's still inside!" Miwako Sato grabbed the deformed edge of the car door and roared.

Just a dozen minutes ago, she was still watching him pass by her alive, just a dozen minutes...

"Miwako!" Miyamoto Yumi, who held her under her armpits with both hands, also shouted and pulled her away from the car, "Wake up, what are you doing?!"

"I want to save him..." Looking at the car door getting farther and farther away, Miwako Sato said in a trance, trying to break free from the pull behind her.

"Takagi is fine!" Miyamoto Yumi quickly reminded, "He's not in the car! You should step back quickly, this is for the fire department."

The stunned Sato Miwako was pulled away by Miyamoto Yumi a few steps, and finally saw Takagi Wataru standing behind her with a bewildered face.

"Let me see, oh, your hands are burned." Miyamoto Yumi pulled up her hand that was tightly clenched on the deformed car door, which was already a little bloody, "Why are you so impulsive! I'll go get you some water..."

Sato Miwako closed her eyes, and finally seemed to react, and couldn't help shaking her feet.

"The one she wanted to save must be Officer Matsuda." Conan, who had already heard the whole story of the case, witnessed all this and couldn't help but sigh, "That incident gave her a very big blow."

Watching a colleague you like die in front of your eyes, even if you can even imagine it for a moment...

Conan looked around at his friends.

At this glance, he saw Tang Ze whose expression was completely different from that of the people around him, with a slightly gloomy expression.

"Tangze, why is this expression?" Conan, who felt that Tangze's expression was not quite right, immediately turned his attention, "Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?"

He heard Tang Ze describe how he had a conflict with someone and was falsely accused of intentionally injuring others, and was eventually imprisoned. Although this experience seems fishy now, this is what Tang Ze suspected at the time. the cause of the conflict.

"Maybe it's because I look a little fierce." Tang Ze pinched his cheek.

"...Huh? Are you sure?" Conan's eyes widened as he almost choked the jelly in the juice into his trachea. "You? A bit fierce?"

This guy is obviously half a year older than me, but his face is so long that he could be his younger brother, and his clothes can fool people that he is a junior high school student. The outline of his face is very round, and he is completely in the state of a teenager who has not yet developed. Tang Ze Do you have any misunderstandings about your appearance?

"The reason why you think I'm not fierce now is because I've been trying to adjust my expression. Every time you learn something, you gain wisdom." As Tang Ze said, he put away the ever-present smile at the corner of his mouth, lowered his head, and adjusted his gaze. Angle.

Then Conan was shocked to find that what Karasawa said was actually true.

His appearance is indeed handsome, and the way he slightly bends his eyes when he smiles is also very friendly, but when he lowers his head like this and looks up from the edge of his bangs, the rounded arc is hidden and a circle is exposed. The whites of his eyes made his light-colored eyes seem to be glaring sharply, and his whole face took on a fierce aggression.

According to Karasawa, in order to avoid misunderstandings, he will always keep smiling as long as he can remember to adjust his facial muscles.

...So when you show such a gloomy expression, it means there is a big problem.

Sensing something was wrong, Conan immediately dropped his focus on the police story and pulled Tangze back a few steps.

"He must have recalled some bad things." Haihara Ai noticed their actions, took a few steps closer, and took the initiative to hold Tang Ze's hand.

At the same time, she leaned close to Conan's ear and said in a weak voice: "...Has Karasawa told you? His home in Kyoto was burned down by the organization. He may not be able to bear this kind of situation. on site."

"Is that so? But before..." Conan was just about to say that he had not encountered bombings since coming to Tokyo, but after carefully recalling it for a moment, the words were completely stuck on his lips.

...If I count carefully, I have never encountered them before.

The most recent bombing was the Twin Towers skyscraper, and the one that preceded it was the master of the skyscraper architect, Teiji Moritani. In both cases, Karasawa had never seen the explosion scene at close range.

Counting further back, there have been many fires and explosions, large and small, but Karasawa seemed, seemed, definitely... not present? Or at least I have never seen a burning scene.

The closest he came to the explosion was probably Ye Caisan's time. The organizer at that time created an explosion on the bow of the ship in order to cover up the fact that he had killed his accomplices.

But it seems that Tang Ze did not see the explosion scene, and the person had already fallen into the sea...

Strange, why did he subconsciously have the feeling that Karasawa had experienced many bombings, and instinctively wanted to refute Haibara Ai's words?

"I'll take him over there to rest for a while. You can investigate first." After giving an answer that made Conan think deeply, Haihara Ai said lightly, took Tangze's hand, and walked to the other party across the street. .

After his back was completely turned to the crowd, and it was difficult to be heard when he spoke, Huihara Ai finally lowered his voice.

"Why did you suddenly exchange with him? Is there anything going on with Tang Ze?"

Yes, just by taking one look at that gloomy face, Haihara Ai immediately recognized that Tang Ze standing next to them had quietly been replaced by Hoshikawa Hui at some point.

After spending a lot of time with the Phantom Thieves, and most importantly, being very aware of how Karasawa and Hoshikawa Teru are substitutes for each other, Haibara Ai has been able to accurately tell who Karasawa is and who is fake at a glance.

And although Hoshikawa Teru's acting skills have improved a lot, they are still not as blind as Karasawa. When he forgets to control his expression, he may be seen through by keen detectives at a glance.

Hoshikawa Teru rarely appeared in front of Conan. He only appeared occasionally during the case and Conan's attention would not be turned to him.

"I haven't taken off my disguise today." Xingchuan Hui, the hard-working tool man, replied numbly, "The new guy, I don't know what he said to senior Jingguang, but the leader suddenly called me over when he saw the news."

Taking advantage of the moment when everyone's attention was temporarily diverted after the explosion, he approached. When Sato Miwako rushed over, Karasawa quietly retreated from the alley behind them.

"...It's really hard on you." Haiyuan Ai patted the back of Xingchuan Hui's hand sympathetically.

Hoshikawa Teru's character can only be a little livelier in front of Karasawa Miyano Akemi and others. Most of the time, he is a gloomy introvert.

It’s scary to think about always having to play the sociable character of Karasawa who is smiling and good at dancing.

"It's okay, I deserve it." Hoshikawa Teru, who was used to being summoned by Karasawa all the time, was very calm, "You found a reason in time."

Who made him beg to stay and work for Karasawa?

I don't know if it's a coincidence. Although Karasawa has actually experienced many bombings, and even half of the explosives in the Twin Towers were installed by himself, in Conan, Karasawa did not use his own identity when he experienced the bombing with him.

Either it was Kitagawa Yusuke, or it was Joker, or Karasawa was rushing to other places for some purpose and was absent directly. In short, this reason was unexpectedly convincing.

"It's not that I found it in time, this is also the words that Karasawa and I have discussed." When Huiyuan Ai said this, her expression was similar to that of Hoshikawa Teru beside her.

In order to conceal his identity, Karasawa has done special training for people who know his identity.

The same is true for Amuro Toru.

It just happened that today was a bombing. If it was another type of case today, Huiyuan Ai could also come up with other plans for Karasawa's condition.

"...You've been working hard too."

"It's okay, I deserve it."

Who told her to have such a relative, so many things, and to run into them?

The two looked at each other, and in this situation where workers complained about their bosses, they felt a rare resonance.

What a reliable and jerk-off leader, a certain guy!

————

Tang Ze was in a good mood because he couldn't hear the two hard-working teammates who tried to clean up the mess behind him.

He changed his clothes to the white-haired form with one click, and with Noah's prompt, he accurately found Matsuda Jinpei who was hiding in a panic not far away.

He approached silently with light hands and feet, and then patted the other's shoulder.

Matsuda Jinpei, who was alert, was startled and turned his head suddenly, and saw this young man with a mysterious and weird temperament appear behind him.

Are you a ghost or am I a ghost... No, that's not right...

It's all the fault of the new guy in the Investigation Division. What ghost or not, so rude!

"Senior Jingguang said that you seem to have discovered something." Looking at Matsuda Jinpei's speechless expression, Tang Ze raised the arc of his mouth a little, "Is there anything wrong with this case?"

"Yes, this case is very wrong." Patting his heart that was beating wildly, Matsuda Jinpei reluctantly returned his attention to the other party's question, "Jing said that according to your investigation, this case should not be done by that criminal. It happened today, and the police were first targeted to send a fax. It is likely an accident due to coincidence. You judged that it was a copycat, right?"

"Yes. You He is one of the people who knows the most about this serial bombing case. You know it very well, right? If it was him, the content of the fax would not be like this. "Tang Ze nodded and answered with reason, "The police have not announced the details of the case, nor your full name. The outside world does not know that this criminal would leave a riddle-like notice to the police. This is more like a copycat. "

As for why this case also happened on November 7 and was connected with the real bombing case, Tang Ze himself has not figured it out yet. He can only temporarily attribute it to the strange timeline and the butterfly effect.

This is also the reason why he asked others to bring Matsuda Jinpei here.

Let this expert on the bombing case see what the case is like. If possible, solve some of the bombs in advance to avoid damaging too many public facilities and avoid the real big case being diverted because of these smoke bombs.

If the murderer's fax is sent to the police station when the Investigation Section 1 goes to the post office to arrest people, then this is a big joke.

"It is indeed possible that the criminal is not him. If he came, the bomb would not be placed under the car, and he would definitely find ways to make it explode when the policeman got into the car." Matsuda Jinpei pursed his lips and said very confidently, "But that bomb was made by that guy."

Tang Ze, who did not expect this to unfold, slightly widened his eyes.

"You mean, the bomb used by the criminal in this case was made by the murderer of the serial bombing case?" Tang Ze's thoughts diverged along with his words, "That guy actually started selling bombs? Or did he deliberately provide explosives to divert attention for his actions today? That's not quite right."

It is hard to say which side is the real joker of the bomber who would set up such a striking bombing case and put a test of humanity to the police. He must be the type of criminal who craves attention among all kinds of criminals.

This kind of person would like to make his achievements into a title and stick it on his name. How could he allow other criminals to share their own spotlight in his most important glorious moment.

"That's why I will notify Jing." Matsuda Jinpei kept a straight face and turned the interface of his mobile phone to Tang Ze.

It was a website with a gray background. Tang Ze was quite familiar with the style of the website.

It was closely related to the organization and it was very likely that the other party imitated the move set by the Kaito CH. That wishing website.

"The paper bag that was thrown under the car had a logo on it. I asked your technician to check it for me." Matsuda Jinpei's eyes were gloomy under his sunglasses. "That guy may be using this site to send money to people in need." Selling his 'works'. Maybe he did not do it himself by using the parade today, and the time must have been arranged by him, and his harm is expanding, and..."

When Matsuda Jinpei said this, he couldn't help but take a deep breath.

Something weighed heavily on his heart, making him need some strength to finish the last sentence.

"Moreover, the case he wants to create this time will only be bigger than three years ago."
