Detective Conan: The System Takes Me to Zero's World

Chapter 300: The Terror at the Beihu Hotel: Bombs, Conspiracy, and a Secret Reunion

A smile flashed in Kudo Yuki's eyes: "Early before we separated, I had asked Conan to keep an eye on Mr. Murasaki. I estimated that he would take action soon. He is currently in the room above or below Room 2114."

When everyone heard what Kudo Yuki said, a glimmer of hope ignited in the tense atmosphere.

Officer Megure took a deep breath and calmed himself down: "Okay, then when Conan stabilizes the criminal, catch him. Takagi, go to the front desk to find someone and try to catch the criminal before he holds Conan hostage."

After receiving the order, Officer Takagi immediately turned around and ran out the door.

After Officer Takagi left, Yuki Kudo deliberately told another piece of news. She pointed at Hayashizaki Danji and said solemnly, "Officer Megure, I found something else in room 2114. There was a faint smell of marijuana in that room. I suspect that all this is related to Mr. Mushi's plan."

When Inspector Megure heard this, his face changed: "The smell of marijuana? Is there any deeper connection between them? Miss Kudo, please tell me in detail."

"When Zhenchun and I lifted the bed and found the bomb, we smelled a faint smell of marijuana, which we found strange.

After careful consideration, Mr. Hayashizaki knew that smoking in the hotel room was prohibited, but he still insisted on doing so. He must have wanted to cover up the smell of marijuana by smoking. And Mr. Mushi placed a bomb in Mr. Hayashizaki's room, which might be closely related to marijuana. "

Officer Megure frowned and fell into deep thought: "If this is true, then this case becomes even more complicated. The most important thing now is to catch Mr. Murashi and interrogate him about the situation."

In room 2014, Mushi Youdou was wearing wired headphones, the wires of which were barely visible at his collar. His phone screen displayed a voice-changing software, and the faint blue light reflected on his slightly nervous face.

He declared complacently: "So what? It seems that I still can't solve it. There is really no other way. Let me teach you how to solve it. That is the fence code, which means that the room with the bomb is the one I live in..."

"Room 2114." Conan answered first, he walked in front of Yuto Muraiishi and stopped two steps away from the adult. "It's the room above this room, right? Mr. Muraiishi Yuto, the bomber."

Mu Shi Youdou took off his headphones in panic and turned around. The headphones were almost dropped to the ground by him. He widened his eyes and looked incredulous: "Why are you here?"

Conan put his hands in his pockets and began to explain: "After I separated from you, I called the front desk to ask if there were any suspicious guests wearing glasses and masks to deliberately hide their appearance among the guests staying in the rooms directly above or directly below Room 2114.

Because I thought that if I wanted to throw the phone away, I didn’t necessarily have to run to the roof. At first, they were still struggling over whether to tell the police, but in the end they told me it was in this room.

I waited near this room for a while, and then I saw you sneakily open the door and walk in, so I sneaked in before you closed the door!"

Mushi Youdou tried to defend himself, his eyes showing a trace of panic: "But, didn't I talk to the criminal who called me? Are you trying to say that I have an accomplice?"

Conan raised the corner of his mouth, as if he was mocking the other party's naivety: "That was just in line with the pre-recorded voice of the criminal, you just answered.

Prepare three mobile phones, use the program to set the time for the first one to automatically call the hotel. Then, record the prisoner's voice in advance on the second mobile phone, and use the timer function to play it at the same time, of course, in the room where no one is.

Then, at the end of the conversation, if I locked the first phone with the third phone in my pocket, the call would be disconnected. The evidence is that the criminal did not answer my simple question! "

Murasaki Yuto was stunned by Conan's series of reasonings, which were like bombs. It took him a while to come back to his senses: "You, who are you?"

"Edogawa Conan is a detective."

Mu Shi Youdou sneered, a hint of ruthlessness flashed in his eyes: "Huh, a famous detective? Do you know this?"

He took out a small folding knife from his arms and straightened it with force. With a rustling sound, the sharp blade flashed dangerously under the light.

Yuto Muishi gently stroked the blade with his hand, his eyes became fierce, and he approached Conan step by step. The knife swayed in his hand, reflecting a terrifying light.

"I'm still a marijuana dealer. I don't know how Lin Qi smelled it."

Conan seemed calm, but in fact his hands had quietly opened the aiming disc on his watch behind his back. He was waiting for the best opportunity, ready to go.

Muishi Youdou bent down, with the folding knife very close to Conan's face. He swung the folding knife back and forth. The cold touch made Conan feel the danger, but he remained calm.

Mu Shi Youdou smiled sinisterly: "He actually threatened me. If I don't want to be discovered, I will sell it to him cheaply. So I plan to blow him up with a bomb. What do you think? You don't know, right?"

Conan looked up with a smile on his face: "Well, I don't know. Can you tell me more about it?"

When Yuto Murasaki saw that Conan was not afraid at all, but instead looked very interested, he couldn't help but get furious.

Just as he approached Conan again and wanted to intimidate him further, Conan seized the opportunity, raised his hands suddenly, and shot an anesthetic needle at Mu Shi Youdou.

Mu Shi Youdou only felt his neck go numb, his eyes instantly became blurry, his body leaned uncontrollably against the coffee table, he soon fell asleep, and then slid to the ground.

Conan put on his watch and took a long breath: "Tell the police."

Not long after, Officer Takagi led someone to open the door. "Conan, I saw your email saying 'come to room 2014', and I heard from Miss Kudo that you were here, so I rushed here after receiving the order."

Conan pointed at Murasaki Yuto with a smile and said, "Ah, this doorman is the bomber. I don't know why he suddenly got so tired that he fell asleep."

At the same time, in another room, Sera Masumi opened the door and asked loudly: "Mom, have you finished defusing the bomb?"

Akai Mari put her hands on her hips, looking relaxed: "Yeah. I set it up as a bomb that failed to explode due to a malfunction. Did you hand over the man who sold marijuana to the police?"

Shira Masumi showed his fangs and smiled: "Of course. That person was really heavy, luckily Sister Xue helped to carry him for a while, now he's a little sore."

She stretched and loosened her sore shoulders, a look of relief on her face.

At the corner of the corridor, the man wearing black sunglasses was hiding. After hearing the "click" sound of the door closing and seeing that there was no one in the corridor, he took out a special pen from his jacket pocket and slowly walked to the fire hydrant. He smashed the fire hydrant's alarm with the pen.

In an instant, the sound of the alarm resounded throughout the entire hotel, making people terrified. The hotel, which had gradually calmed down, fell into panic again because of this situation.

Hibiki Eri looked surprised and clenched her hands unconsciously. "Could it be..."

Officer Megure had the same expression. He shouted, "Did the bomb explode? Don't panic, run outside immediately."

He shouted and waved his arms, directing everyone to evacuate the hotel.

The scene was suddenly in chaos. People were screaming and running like headless flies. The sounds of hurried footsteps and sharp alarms were intertwined.

During the evacuation, Yuki Kudo assisted in the evacuation while keeping a vigilant eye on the surroundings. She frowned, thinking that the alarm was too strange and did not sound like a bomb explosion. However, she could not think too much at this time. The most urgent thing was to ensure everyone's safety.

In the panicked crowd, Kisaki Eri saw a little girl crying in the corner. People around her were running past her in panic, and no one noticed the poor child.

Fei Yingli rushed over, picked up the little girl, and gently comforted her: "Don't be afraid, child, auntie will take you out."

The little girl hugged Kisaki Eri's neck tightly as if she had grabbed a life-saving straw. Her heart-wrenching cry was particularly distressing amid the noisy alarm.

Officer Takagi dragged Murasaki Yuto out of the hotel with great effort. "This guy is really heavy. I hope this is just a false alarm."

Conan frowned, his face filled with worry, "I hope so. Now we need to get everyone out safely."

A crowd of people gathered in the open space outside the hotel, including Akai Mari and Sera Masumi. Sera Masumi tightly protected her mother and observed the surroundings vigilantly.

The man wearing black sunglasses followed the evacuated crowd to the outside of Beihu Hotel. He mixed in the panicked crowd, but his eyes were always fixed on the door of the hotel, as if he was waiting for something important to happen.

After the alarm stopped, Mary Akai inadvertently saw the rare black antique car that Kudo Yuki mentioned parked across the road.

Sitting in the car, Yasuharu Haneda, who was wearing a ventilator, saw Akai Mary and her daughter through the car window. His eyes revealed surprise, emotion, and a hint of unspeakable sadness.

The man wearing black sunglasses opened the car door and sat in the driver's seat. He turned around and chatted with Haneda Yasuharu, with a hint of teasing in his tone: "Did you see it?"

Yasuharu Haneda, who was wearing a ventilator, breathed softly and said weakly, "I saw them. It was like a dream. After so many years, I didn't expect to see them again."

At this time, Kudo Yuki spotted the black antique car in the crowd, and she quietly walked towards the car, signaling to Conan with her eyes. [Follow me.]

Conan understood what he meant and began to move quietly towards the car.

Mary Akai and Masumi Sera also noticed something unusual. The mother and daughter looked at each other, exchanging information with their eyes.

Masumi Sera moved closer to Kudo Yuki.

The man in sunglasses seemed to notice that someone was paying attention to them. He frowned slightly and said, "It seems we have to leave. It's not safe here anymore."

As he said that, he started the car.

Seeing this, Kudo Xue's heart tightened, and she quickened her pace and shouted loudly: "Wait! Who are you?"

However, the car showed no sign of stopping. Instead, it accelerated suddenly and sped away into the distance.

Kudo Yuki wanted to catch up, but the car was going too fast and disappeared in a flash, leaving only a black afterimage.

Conan frowned, stopped, took out his phone and started to operate it. His fingers quickly slid across the screen, muttering: "I have memorized the license plate. I will ask Dr. Agasa to use his tracking system to see if he can find the trace of this car."

Sera Masumi stamped his feet in annoyance, a look of frustration on his face: "Damn it, it was just a little bit short, who are they?"

A system announcement sounded: "The video has been saved to the phone."

Kudo Yuki took out her phone, her eyes becoming serious: "Conan, Masumi, you two should explain the case to Officer Megure. As for the two people in the car, don't mention them a word from now on."

Although Conan and Sera Masumi were full of doubts, they knew that there must be a deeper meaning behind Kudo Yuki's order, so they nodded in agreement and turned to walk towards Inspector Megure.

Kudo Yuki walked quickly to Akai Mari.

Akai Mary looked in the direction the car left with a deep look in her eyes. "No matter who they are, we have been dragged into this. Judging from their reaction, they don't want to have direct contact with us. There must be some hidden reason."

Kudo Yuki leaned close to Akai Mari and whispered in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "Aunt Mary, go to the corner and see what the man in black sunglasses has done."

Akai Mary and Kudo Yuki came to a relatively quiet corner, surrounded by a noisy crowd. Kudo Yuki turned on her phone and the two watched the video together.

The two came to a relatively quiet corner.

The crowd around them was in a panic and noisy manner, with people shouting and footsteps constantly heard, but the two of them seemed to be in another world, watching the video on Kudo Yuki's phone.

After Akai Mary finished watching the video, her face became more solemn. Although the scenes in the video did not directly reveal the identities of the two people, some details made her guess even stronger.

She handed the phone to Kudo Yuki and signaled with her eyes: "Keep it."

"Kudo Yuki, this matter cannot be made known to more people, especially the information about that car and those two people. This matter may put everyone in danger."

Akai Mary said in a low voice, her eyes sweeping across the bustling crowd around her, as if looking for other hidden prying eyes.

Akai Mary frowned slightly and spoke thoughtfully: "Especially the man wearing black sunglasses, his actions are very suspicious. He smashed the fire hydrant alarm to cause panic, and it seems that he deliberately wanted us to come here and see their car and the people in the car. But what is their purpose?"
