Conan's New Police Story

Chapter 46 The Undetermined Eighth Target
——? !

"What did you say?!"

In the corridor that was supposed to be relatively quiet, Mu Mu Shisan's eyes widened suddenly, but he couldn't hold back the shock in his heart. The almost roaring volume immediately attracted the attention of many nurses——

Mu Mu Shisan, who realized something was wrong, immediately lowered his tone, his brows were full of dignity: "Show me, Uehara-kun."

If these two cases can be linked together, it means...

"Satou, do you have a detailed number of the bombs sold by the prisoners of the Shinkansen bombing?"

Just by glancing at the email sent to Uehara Katsumi by his colleagues in the forensics department, Mu Moshisan already understood the connection point between the two cases in his mind, and immediately turned his attention to the subordinate who was mainly in charge of the bomb case in the past few days.

"Seven."

Miwako Sato gave the boss an extremely light number, but it made the hearts of everyone present sink suddenly.

"That is to say, after excluding the one that detonated the Asahiju restaurant, the prisoner still has at least 12 military-grade bombs in his hands." Chiba Kazunobu, rubbing the same big belly of the same model as Memu Shisan, swallowed subconsciously Spit, turned to look at his friend Takagi.

If the prisoner attacked Shiratori Ren Saburo because he wanted to take revenge on the police who had been biting him, then there is a high probability that they will be the ones who will suffer next.

Gao Muwa, who also realized this, took a deep breath, but his eyes remained firm.

"maybe."

As the main person in charge of the bomb case, Miwako Sato came up with another idea after thinking about it: "Police, what if the criminal's initial goal is to kill another person?
"What if Shiratori was just affected? Or maybe the prisoner found out his contact information and deliberately induced him to pretend to be a fake so that we would ignore the target he really wanted to kill?"

Miwako Sato, whose brain was running fast, gradually broadened her thoughts, and immediately derived the next speculation: "Or, did Shiratori find something that forced the prisoner to choose to change the law of killing?"

Mu Mu Shisan couldn't help but nodded when he heard the words, indicating that what he said made sense——

"No, the prisoner should still follow his own law of killing, and it hasn't changed."

While Mu Mushisan was thinking, unexpectedly, Katsumi Uehara, who has often partnered with Miwako Sato this year, raised an objection.

It's a little rare.

"What do you think, Uehara-kun?" Mu Mu Shisan, who always focused on teamwork, asked.

"The bomb transaction cannot be completed overnight, and judging from the number of bombs he purchased, it is obvious that the subsequent use of bombs to kill people is in his plan."

"Then, if you say that, doesn't it mean that at least 12 places will explode?!" Takagi Tsutomu, who was brought into his thoughts by the words, suddenly thought of this terrible possibility, and his eyes widened in shock.

Chiba and Shin, who have always been calm, couldn't help but turn dark. Thinking of possible bombings in the future, they couldn't help gnashing their teeth: "This bastard!"

"Have you checked Shiratori's cell phone? Are there any abnormal calls or emails?" After pondering for a moment, Megushisan glanced at the operating room where the lights were still on. people.

"It has been checked, and there is nothing abnormal. If the prisoner deliberately led Shiratori to this restaurant, it must be through other means. I have ordered people to check before coming to the hospital."

Under Mu Mushisan's slightly surprised eyes, Uehara Katsumi handed over his answer sheet.

"Who is the family member of the patient? Are the family members of the patient there?"

Several people in the corridor were discussing, but the door of the operating room was suddenly pushed open—the doctors and nurses walking out of the operating room with the ambulance bed suddenly interrupted everyone's discussion.

Mu Mu Shisan, who cared about the comfort of his subordinates, immediately went up to him, and said eagerly: "The family members are on their way, doctor, how is he doing?"

"The operation went well and the patient is out of danger."

The answer given by the doctor made several people rush to the bed frame——Although Ren Saburo Shiratori was still in a coma wearing a ventilator, his regular chest rising and falling with the sound of even breathing was enough to explain everything.

"Great……"

Takagi and Chiba looked at each other, with a relieved smile on their faces.

It's okay, it's okay.

"Sato, Uehara, Takagi, Chiba, the next two cases will be investigated together, the four of you must catch that damn bastard back in the shortest possible time!"

Seeing the miserable state of Shiratori, one of the right-hand assistants, Mu Mu Shisan straightened his hat, and his tone obviously suppressed his anger: "Supreme authority, I will take responsibility for what happens!"

"learn!"

The four people headed by Sato Miwako looked at each other in pairs and spoke in unison.

"Also, don't worry about the White Bird Consortium and the pressurers above to solve the case. If you have any questions, let them come to me. You just need to investigate at your own pace, don't be in a hurry."

Mu Mu Thirteen, who has spent nearly half of his life on the front line, is well aware of the pressure that may arise from all aspects in the future, and directly shows himself as the boss of the three departments.

"Police—"

"Okay, hurry up and go back to the Metropolitan Police Department to analyze the case, and leave it to me to deal with it. People from the Shiratori family will arrive later, and I have to explain the situation to them."

Mu Mu Shisan waved his hand, signaling them not to waste time.

Takagi and Chiba each had a car, and after saying goodbye, they quickly drove away from the hospital.Sato came to the hospital in Katsumi Uehara's car, so he naturally sat in the co-pilot of the pink EVO when he returned.

"I still don't understand why the prisoner suddenly attacked Shiratori.

"If, as you said, he planned to use a bomb from the very beginning, then why did he have to take the risk of possible exposure to lure Shiratori into that restaurant? Choose someone else over a cop."

Biting her lip and pondering for a while, Miwako Sato, who couldn't come up with a reason, cast her eyes on her partner who was driving, and expressed the doubts that had been hovering in her heart.

"I don't know either, so I have to start from the beginning."

"You mean the seven dead before? Shiratori and the others searched and searched for a long time, but they didn't find any clues."

"Generally speaking, there are generally only two types of perpetrators in serial murders—random homicides that cover the targets of murder and mental illness crimes."

Katsumi Uehara, who turned the steering wheel and turned across the intersection, stepped on the accelerator to accelerate, said in a very firm tone: "When I heard what Shiratori said, I actually thought it was more likely to be a random murder, but now I can be sure that this is not the case. Not random killings.

"Because if it was a truly random killing, the criminal would not have bought the bombs he needed before committing the next round of crime. In other words, the criminal is still killing according to the rules he set.

"And since it wasn't a random killing, it means that there must be some kind of connection between the previous seven dead people that Shiratori and the others haven't found out yet. In other words, it's the No. 8 dead person that we can't find out now. There is a certain relationship between them.”

Because of the bomb detonation, the restaurant suffered heavy casualties.

Facing a crowd of corpses and the wounded who were urgently rushed to the hospital, the police couldn't tell who was the eighth target of the restaurant bombing, and even the metal card was Katsumi Uehara in the ruins. found.

Miwako Sato couldn't help frowning when she heard the words: "I'll go to press again to see if I can join the autopsy team. In addition, the bank account and phone number used for the transaction with the bomber should have the results in the afternoon."
