A Detective: I Believe in Science

Chapter 246 Kyogoku Amulet
Minami Kupado Station

A large number of police cars gathered here, and a large number of policemen stood in battle, pulling up the blockade, and the signboard of no entry for idlers was erected.

The train stopped running, and it was placed on the track in an orderly manner. One after another, well-dressed policemen stepped into the train carriage nervously, as if there were monsters that could swallow people there.

"Report, the sixth compartment found the target."

After an abrupt voice sounded on the intercom, the bomb disposal specialists waiting outside the carriage quickly rushed to the target location.

Familiar bomb, familiar structure, everything is just like the bomb I touched three years ago. The bomb disposal officer swallowed nervously, not daring to be negligent.

However, after using tools to conduct an in-depth inspection of the bomb, the face of the bomb disposal commissioner became strange. This bomb...

"What? Fake?"

In the Metropolitan Police Department, Police Officer Mu Mu's face was serious. The gangsters had expected that they would go to Nanbeihu Station for inspection, so they played tricks on them with fake bombs.

"Regardless of whether it is true or false, order the personnel present to check Minamikubedo Station and all train carriages to prevent real bombs from being mixed in."

Kiyomi Matsumoto issued the second order today, and his first order was to thoroughly inspect all baseball training grounds.

Although the method seems clumsy, even if the possibility of knowing that there is a bomb there is very small, as a policeman, he needs to prevent any dangerous factors from appearing, rather than relying on reasoning and guessing to protect the people.

As the inspection gradually deepened, hidden bombs were found one after another. Without exception, they were all made of a little gunpowder, and they couldn't even be called fireworks.

"Damn it, the gangster is so cunning and prepared in advance, but where is the real burial place?"

Conan, who was sitting in the car, frowned. They were all misled by the gangster. This is a smart gangster. The real content of this notice letter was very cryptic, which led to his first misjudgment.

The night was as cool as water, and on an unknown overpass, stood a slender man in a gray windbreaker.

Looking at the busy figure of the police in the distance with the binoculars in hand, with a cheerful and mocking smile on his mouth, he muttered to himself.

"The fireworks show is about to start."

……

Police officer Takagi, who finally finished his search, brought a few children to one of the few fast food restaurants that were still open, wanting to give them some energy.

"Hurry up and eat. After eating, I'll send you home. It's not safe outside tonight."

He really didn't want to take these children with him anymore, ghosts and ghosts, and the most important thing was that there was no end to gossip about himself and Police Officer Sato, although there was nothing to gossip about.

"Officer Takagi, are you tired and stupid? It's dawn now, and the night is long gone."

"Then it's time for you to go home. If you haven't slept all night, your body must be tired. You are still developing. Don't overwork yourself. Go home and rest."

It was only then that Takagi realized that he had been busy all night unknowingly, but his purpose was to not want to take care of these children, so the time didn't matter.

"Officer Takagi, what was the result of your inspection at the baseball training ground yesterday? Did you find any bombs?"

The little ghosts who still wanted to resist, when they heard Conan's question, immediately fell silent, waiting for Takagi's answer.

"No, the bombs found occasionally are the same as the ones at the station. They are all fake. Now our Metropolitan Police Department is researching the real burial site. I hope we can find out as soon as possible."

After listening to Takagi's answer, Conan's face was calm. As he expected, the baseball training ground is also a decoy, and the real hiding place has not yet been discovered.

Closing his eyes and meditating, the notice letter three years ago was very similar to the notice letter he received yesterday, and Conan had a vague feeling that this gangster was not targeting ordinary people, but only targeting the police.

"Officer Takagi, do you know anything about the bombing seven years ago?"

Conan suddenly remembered that the blasting case seven years ago was also done by this gangster. Is there any similarity in it?

"I don't know very well, but I just heard someone say it by chance. Seven years ago, two robbers threatened the Metropolitan Police Department with time bombs and extorted [-] million yuan. Forced to do so, the Metropolitan Police Department agreed."

"Then the bomb stopped beating, and the crisis was resolved. However, some newspapers privately reported that the bomb was still beating, and at the same time severely reprimanded the gangsters for their dishonesty."

"As a result, one of the robbers couldn't bear this kind of framing, and called again, saying that our police fabricated lies. They had clearly stopped the bomb, so how could it be still beating."

"The Metropolitan Police Department did everything they could. While dragging the robber with the phone, he found out his location and was about to arrest him. Unexpectedly, the robber was hit by a car and died while escaping, and the other robber disappeared. It reappeared three years ago, and you all know the rest of it."

Conan suddenly understood why the robber chose to target the police. In his heart, he must have thought that the police had killed his companion, and he did this just for revenge.

"Okay, since you've all finished eating, I'll take you home. This case is really not suitable for you to participate in."

Seeing that they had eaten well, Takagi immediately got up and drove. He was very busy. After sending these children home, he would continue to search for the culprit. If he couldn't find the culprit today, the consequences would be disastrous.

"Hey, it's so boring, I have to do my homework again when I get home."

"Me too."

"Then why don't we go to the doctor's house for a play?"

Ayumi's suggestion was instantly approved, and Haibara gave a rare nod in agreement, because she was going to study those new machines, and she was delayed yesterday, so she must try it today.

……

Since today was the national mock exam, Noah came to the school very early, but as soon as he walked to the classroom, he saw a scene that confused him.

Sonoko is facing the photo of Kyogoku, praying and worshiping with his hands folded, what do you mean, wasn't he fine yesterday during the day, could it be that he was beaten to death at night?

"What is Yuanzi doing here?"

"Isn't it an exam today? Sonoko wants to use Brother Jingji's photo as a talisman to bless her to pass the exam smoothly."

Noah was speechless for a moment, this is the real temporary hugging Buddha's feet, but this Buddha is the main one.

"What do you know? With Ah Zhen by my side to accompany me, I will definitely write with God's help."

then……

"Why, Kyogoku-san's help doesn't seem to be very effective, hahaha."

After finishing the first subject, Yuanzi collapsed on the desk with blank eyes, ignoring Noah's teasing.

Xiaolan next to her also pursed her lips and smiled. During the exam, Yuanzi scratched her ears and cheeks, which was really interesting.

"No, I can't sit still like this, I have to struggle."

Sonoko suddenly stood upright, her face firm and full of confidence.

"How can you still struggle at this time, you don't want to cheat..."

Halfway through, Noah saw Sonoko nodding at him.

"Hey, hey, you're not serious, are you? If Teacher Kato finds out about this, you will die a miserable death."

Noah politely persuaded that in this world, cheating is found to be a very serious matter, ranging from re-rehabilitation to expulsion, but with the ability of the Suzuki family, they can be criticized to the top of the sky.

Sonoko was immediately discouraged again. Noah was right, she would be punished badly, because Mr. Kato would definitely tell her family about it.

"Forget it, let it be fate!"

Yuanzi fell on the table again, turning into dried salted fish, she gave up...
