Ke Xue World: The Confrontation between Black and Red

Chapter 370 Aria of a Moonlit Night (9)

Getting a promotion and a raise in salary should be a happy event, but until today, Masahiko Sanada has not felt a bit of joy.

Congratulations from people around me, blessings from family, and favor and optimism shown by some senior executives above me.

It was like huge rocks pressing down on him, making it hard for him to breathe.

The moment he learned the truth, a strong sense of guilt and remorse swept through his entire brain like an eighteen-magnitude tsunami.

The entire deep sea of ​​memory was impacted with blood.

Masahiko Sanada never thought of becoming a police officer.

His original intention in becoming a policeman was to find his brother.

Whether it was choosing the Metropolitan Police Department when graduating from the police academy or rejecting the invitation from the National Police Agency.

Still, I became a police inspector step by step and have come to where I am today.

This determination to find his brother has never changed.

If it were a fairy tale, Masahiko Sanada would achieve his wish after going through untold hardships.

But living in this world, he got a cruel truth.

It not only shattered his previous beliefs.

It also made Masahiko Sanada suddenly realize that the life he was living now was, in a sense, the life his eldest brother should have lived.

At this moment, rather than saying that Masahiko Sanada is very calm, he believes that the police investigating the case and Yusaku Kudo and others will clear him of suspicion.

In fact, his mind was not on this.

Or rather, I no longer care.

Looking at the broken pieces of wine glass on the ground, Masahiko Sanada noticed that many eyes were on him and was even thinking.

If this case cannot be solved clearly and he continues to be labeled as a suspect, will those who support him give up on him in disappointment?

He would not have to bear the expectations of those people and be pushed by a group of people to engage in a power struggle that he did not like at all.

But on second thought, he gave up the idea.

Seeing the top reasoning experts coming in but still unable to find the real murderer for a long time, even though Inspector Megure trusted Kudo Yusaku very much, he couldn't avoid worry between his brows.

The police officers from Investigation Section 2 who came to capture Kaito Kid focused some of their attention on Investigation Section 1's main area in the corner, but more of them focused on the standing booth in the center of the party.

The serious and tense atmosphere did not affect the ruby ​​brooch on the booth from shining brightly under the light.

Led by Ginzo Nakamori, the police officers from Investigation Section 2 stood in circles around the stand.

His eyes were alertly paying attention to all movements around him.

Suddenly, a cluster of fireworks exploded in the night sky.

Before the beautiful patterns faded away in the night sky, one firework after another lit up in the night sky.

Colorful patterns appear one after another in the moonlit night sky.

While stunning countless people, it also attracted the attention of people like Nakamori Ginzo.

"Everyone be careful, this might be a trick by Kaito Kidd to divert attention."

After years of battling wits and courage with the first and second generation Kaito Kid, and despite repeated failures, Nakamori Ginzo had accumulated a lot of experience and came to his senses the first time.

The police officers from Investigation Section 2 were alerted and retracted their distracted attention at the shout, but when they set their sights on the booth.

The lights are still on, but the glittering ruby ​​brooch is no longer there.

Instead, there was a mocking Smiling Kid card.

Ginzo Nakamori immediately turned his attention to the police officers surrounding the booth.

Ask them to pinch each other's faces to verify their identities.

At the same time, he walked forward and carefully inspected the display stand.

Conan, who was originally paying attention to the developments of the murder case, immediately realized that Kuroba Kaito had started to take action when he saw the fireworks outside the window.

Seeing Officer Nakamori starting the usual search in the distance, he should have stepped forward as a participant in the plan, but he did not move for a long time.

"Go."

A gentle voice sounded in Conan's ears, and at the same time, the hand on his shoulder pushed him forward slightly.

Conan's heart skipped a beat for some reason and he turned his head to look at his mother, Yukiko Kudo, who was bending down and smiling at him gently with eyes full of trust.

"Your home court is over there, leave this place to me and your father."

Yukiko Kudo lowered her voice and adjusted Conan's red bow tie.

Conan felt a little hesitant, but under the gaze of Kudo Yukiko, he still walked towards where Ginzo Nakamori was.

Mao Lilan did not follow immediately, but instead set her eyes on Haibara Ai beside her.

Something flashed in his eyes, but it seemed no different from before.

"Xiao Ai, do you want to go over and take a look?"

When asked, Huibara Ai shook her head, and the magic hat on her head hid the expression on her face very well.

No one saw the thought in her eyes.

The dinner scene was clearly divided into three waves.

One group was frantically searching for the whereabouts of the ruby ​​brooch, while another group was maintaining the rigid atmosphere of choosing one of three.

The remaining guests were scattered around, ready to signal their intention to leave.

Of course, this is pure dreaming now.

The outside of Chidori Magic Museum was surrounded by more and more Kaito Kid fans. Not only cars and people, even mice were trampled into pieces.

Kudo Yusaku inferred that the murder of the mayor of Seymour City was caused by a fourth person, but the current evidence vaguely points to Masahiko Sanada.

The cold body of Mayor Fujita lying on the ground has been examined, and it has been confirmed that he died of cyanide poisoning.

We need to examine it more carefully, and the rest will have to be handed over to professional forensic doctors.

However, for the same reason, he is still lying on the floor.

But in order not to scare the children at the scene.

After inspection, the police officers from the First Investigation Division moved the body to a corner and used local materials to hang a curtain over the body.

It slightly concealed the horrific death of Mayor Fujita.

Except for some people who were concerned about the truth behind the murder of Masahiko Sanada and Mayor Fujita, most of the remaining guests, including Director Asuka, were attracted by the commotion caused by Ginzo Nakamori.

They knew that only if Kaito Kid appeared could the theft of the ruby ​​brooch have a result.

The group of people outside will disperse.

Director Asuka, the owner of the Chikibird Magic Museum, had a serious expression on his face.

She had just appeased a group of guests and was now staring at the center of the dinner, watching the commotion that Ginzo Nakamori was making in his search for Kaito Kid.

Although there seemed to be anxiety and restlessness in his eyes, there was not much tension or worry in his heart.

Parkrick, on the other hand, had a gloomy face, and it was obvious that he was trying hard to suppress his anger.

Outside the Magic Museum,

As time went by, more and more Kaito Kid fans gathered and formed a force that frightened the police responsible for the perimeter security.

A crowd of people stared intently at the lighted magic hat-shaped building.

The crackling fireworks in the sky made the scene exceptionally clear.

Seeing that none of the people were attracted by the fireworks in the sky and that more and more people were gathering, even the dumbest policeman realized that something was wrong.

however,

The call for support and situation report has just been made.

Before the other side could get through, a burst of fireworks more dazzling than the fireworks in the night sky appeared, accompanied by the sound of an explosion and billowing smoke.

Shattered Ida Ko's original idea.

Before Date Kou could react, the next second, the gathering Kaito Kid fans seemed to have received an attack signal from afar.

They began to desperately shrink the encirclement, moving towards the Qianqi Bird Magic Museum with unified steps and expressions.

The police officers on the outer defense line, who were under increased pressure, were all shocked by the abnormal behavior of these people when they came into close contact with them.

As a matter of course, the call didn't go through, and Ida Hang looked grim.

Instead of continuing to call his boss, Inspector Megure, he quickly made a call for help to the fire department, hospital emergency department, and the Metropolitan Police Department.

After doing all this, Ida Ko turned around and looked at the Kaito Kid fans outside who were like a zombie siege, with determination flashing in his eyes.

No matter what these people's purpose is, they must not be allowed to break through the defense line before reinforcements arrive.

Hundreds of meters away,

Ikezaki Keiko, who was standing on the roof watching all this, frowned slightly. Just as she raised her hand to do something, she heard a voice coming from behind her.

“So it’s hidden here.”

Ikezaki Keiko was startled and immediately turned to look at the source of the sound.

"Heir of the Red Mage, are you going to stop me?"

The first time she saw Koizumi Akako, Ikezaki Keiko recognized her whereabouts. Her soft tone matched her appearance and was full of coldness.

A deep dark light lit up from the fingertips.

It took a lot of time to break through the layers of confusing and murderous magic circles without attracting Keiko Ikezaki's attention. It was not until now that he found the real owner, Koizumi Hongzi, who was full of resentment.

There was no intention of exchanging pleasantries with Ikezaki Keiko at all.

He raised his hand and attacked Keiko Ikezaki.

Ikezaki Keiko's eyes darkened, and with a stroke of her fingertips, strong waves of black magic emerged from the soles of her feet.

"Since you don't want to talk to me, then go to Huangquan and chat with the Huangquan Goddess."

The dark green light rising from the ground made Koizumi Akako step back subconsciously, so she didn't notice that the emerald pendant on Ikezaki Keiko's neck was faintly glowing with a dark green light.

It was exactly the same as the fluctuations of black magic power at the scene, but it was concealed very well.

Afterwards, two magical powers from different origins began to collide violently and brutally on the roof of the building.

As one of the onlookers, Toriyama Hitomi was watching this scene not far away, with confusion in her eyes, but it did not prevent her from telling her companions about it.

"Ikezaki Keiko is being entangled."

On the other end of the headset,

Standing under a street lamp, Fujimoto Hideki, who could clearly see the fire on the first floor of the Chikido Magic Museum, spoke in an anxious voice.

"Haven't you found where Oemoto Takeshi is yet?"

There was a rustling sound on the communication channel, along with the sounds of footsteps running towards the rooftop and inaudible shouting.

After a long while, I heard a reply.

"I haven't found anything yet. He should not be in the Qianqi Bird Magic Museum."

Harumori Aoi, who followed the crowd to the rooftop terrace of the Chikibird Magic Museum, stood in the corner with a dark look in her eyes.

However, because of the decorative lady's veil hat, no one else noticed it.

Of course, no one present was in the mood to pay attention to her.

The fire that started from the first floor and the blown-off stairs cut off everyone's thoughts of going downstairs to escape.

With the earth-shaking explosion and the fire gradually spreading upwards, the only option left for them was to escape to the rooftop.

After reaching the rooftop, everyone finally discovered the horrific scene outside, which looked like a zombie siege.

Nearby fire trucks and ambulances rushed over with lights flashing.

Then, as soon as the people on the bus got off, before they could even look at the scene in the distance with surprise, they were assimilated by the magic circle and became part of the group approaching the Thousand Birds Magic Museum.

If it weren't for his conspicuous clothes, it would be hard to tell that he was not in the same group as the others.

Kudo Yusaku and others who saw this scene on the rooftop all looked unhappy.

The guests took out their cell phones, all of them anxious about how to leave here alive.

Ginzo Nakamori, with a frown on his face, did not look for Kaito Kid this time. While waiting for rescue, his eyes were still wandering on everyone around him.

Masahiko Sanada, who was identified as a suspect, stood quietly in the corner, with two other suspects beside him.

And the body of Mayor Fujita was brought from the fifth floor to the rooftop by the police from the First Investigation Division.

Kenji Hagiwara, a member of the First Investigation Division, did not reveal his identity immediately, but remained lurking among the guests.

When Mayor Fujita was murdered, he inadvertently went to the side of Amuro Toru and Morobushi Kagemitsu, but all he got in response was a slight shake of the head.

now,

While everyone else's attention was focused on other things, he quietly approached the two of them.

With a slightly anxious look on his face, Toru Amuro did not stop Kenji Hagiwara from approaching him. He just took advantage of the common phenomenon of other people calling the police for help.

He also took out his cell phone and started calling the police for help, but the call was actually made to Yuya Kazami.

Morobushi Keimitsu, who had withdrawn his gaze from the distance, took the lead in communicating with Hagiwara Kenji using Morse code.

By the time Toru Amuro finished his call, Keimitsu Morifushi and Kenji Hagiwara had already understood each other's wishes.

On the other end, Yuya Kazami, who had just hung up the phone, called Seishiro Imaseki in a hurry.

After the call was connected, just as Kazami Yuya started to talk, Imaseki Seishiro on the other end of the line said directly:

"The abnormal situation outside the Chiki Bird Magic Museum is the responsibility of the Moon Team. There is no need for the Zero Team to worry about it."

Then he hung up the phone directly.

Hearing the busy tone after the phone call, Yuya Kazami knew that Seishiro Imazeki's behavior was due to an old grudge.

With a sad look on his face, he quickly dialed Kawaguchi Kazu's number.

During this period, the fire on the first floor of the Qianqi Bird Magic Museum had gradually spread to the third floor.

It attracted the attention of countless people, and made the team attacking the outer police line even larger.

The police who came to support realized that something was wrong and quickly built a second line of defense 500 meters away from the group.

Kenjiro Sanada, who rushed all the way from Tokyo to Seymour City in the middle of the night, was stopped outside the second line of defense.

Even if you reveal your identity, you still can't get in.

Listening to the dissuasive voices beside him, Kenjiro Sanada looked at the Chikido Magic Museum in the distance, which was particularly eye-catching under the night sky, surrounded by flames and fireworks.

Both the body and soul were shaking terribly.

It took me a while to turn on the phone.
